conference were announced today by
the war service cNcCut!v" CommIitc"
Of the chamber Of commerce Of tho
United States.
The meeting will bring together
from 1000 to 5000 Industrial lead
erS TO discuss problems that have
arisen with tho war National coun-
ciliors Of the chamber, representing
the more than LOO commercial ana
Industrial organizations which COM
prise its membership, will meet at
the same time and place.
The main purpose Of tho confer
cnCo will be the determination of
practical methods whereby industry
may cooperate still moro closely
with the government through a more
centralized scheme ~ organization.
This probably can be accomplished
best by the creation Of "A federation
~ all he war service committees.
Questions Of reconstruction, too. will
be taken up.
For nearly year the chamber has
been engaged in directing the or
EaniZation of war service committees
in all lines OF Industry To assist the
government in mObillzinE most cf-

prosecution Of the war II is eyi-
dent that however FAR away tho end
~ the war NAV be, IL Is necessary
to begin TO outline "A general program
az organized business for the period
Of reconstruction.
Single Industries. acting indiyidu-
ally, can scarcely hope to prepare
for reconstruction on the scale that
will be necessary and a federation
Of all the war service committees Of
all the industries Will be Of inpsti-
mable value in cooperation with
those agencies Of the government 10
be created to deal with this subject.

MANY STARS ARE
ABSENT In GAMES

Chicago, Nov. .. - When teams
from Illinois, Iowa. Chiclgo and
Purdue officially open the Big Ten
football season tomorrow there will
be a notable absence of star players
who in former years could be de-
pended on to bring victories to their
schools. In fact. coaches of the
four teams do not consider that they
have a man around whom plays can
be built
Players who were the stars last
year and who were eligible to play
this year have all gone into war
service. and for this reason mentors
have schooled the new men so as to
obtain the best possible results from
team play. Chicago. with a make
shift team, is to meet Purdue $
green and inexperienced eleven at
Lafayette.
Illinois and Iowa will play at

LEVINSKY IN CLASS Ia.
Pugilist Is Advanced by Bridgeport
Draft Board.

New York, Nov. 2.-Advices from
Bridgeport Conn, say that the
local draft board has advanced
Battling Leyinsky from Class to
Glass Al and that he must immedi-
ately report for duty.
This threw a bomb into the Be-
whisky camp. The Battler has
been working in the submarine
yards. lie is a big. husky young
fellow II years of age. and is well
fixed financially
The boards edict was based on
the fact that Levinsl<y was a box
ing Instructor at Camp Devens. He
had some difference with the COM
manding officer and promptly re"
signed.
LeHinsky is scheduled tn box
Jack Dempsey in Philadelphia next
week. Agents of the omoters
were in Bridgeport to see the mem
bers of the draft board and are
going to appeal to DIR. Raycroft OF
the training camp board in Wash
inCton. in an effort to get an eN-
tension.
