Senate and house conferees made
rapid progress in squaring the differ

two bodies. and on adjournment to-
night only two provisions had no,
been agreed upon. Failure to accept
those was due to objections offered
by officials of the war department
The work or fight provision, in
corporated in the bill by the senate
but rejected by the house when the
measure was under consideration
there, was the big point of difference
in the bill as it went to conference
1t was pointed out that this provision
in the bill simply writes into the law
what is already covered by regula-

draft law.
Senators Accept Change.
When this argument was presented
by the house conferees, who declared
they would insist upon the provision
being struck from the bill. the sen
ate conferees receded and agreed to
strike 1t out.
1t is believed the Senate will vote
TO uphold the action Of its conferees

NEW YORK STOCKS.
New York, Aug. 29.-Altho news from
the battle front in France was very
favorable, stocks failed to respond.
Realizing sales held the bulk of the
active securities at slightly lower levels.
Easier undertone was credited TO the
of the new liberty loan and
the uncertainty as to tax legislation.
The more accustomed we become to
war conditions, the more our security
market will ignore government financ-
ing. This is well illustrated by the i'm

increasing the man power o. the
United States.
The two provisions pending al the
Penrose amendment, which provides
that the registrant need not claim
exemption in his questionable and
that the local board shall exempt
without claim upon the facts before
them. and the France amendment, pro-
vidfng suitable badge or insignia
for men honorably exempted from the
draft.
Provost Marshal General ,Crowder
has so framed the QUESTIONABLE for
the new registrants they will have to
make all sorts Of claims for exemp-
ton In their answers to the questions
and has had many thousands OF them
printed.
- On this account alone he is opposing
the Penrose amendment, altho Secre-
tary Baker and other officials Of the
war department have repeatedly stated
they were seeking way to exempt
men with dependents and men in es-
sential industries without forcing them
to claim exemption.
For some reason the provost marshal
generals Office is still insisting. in
spite of the statements OF the Secre-
tary Of war and the vote OF the senate.
General Crowder has been summoned
to meet the conferees tomorrow morn
ing. and II he can not offer a better
reason for his opposition the provis-
ion probably will be adopted
Demand for such a provision has
been proved to be nation wide by the
communications that have come 10
con gTess and the war department.
General Crowder viii also be ques-
toned about the France amendment
which will require the local boards to
furnish identifying badges to men who
have been honorably exempted.
Land Rights For Minors.
The senate conferees agreed to take
the house provision which provides
for technical training of young soldiers
in place of the amendment which pro-
vided for their education after they
have completed their service in the
war. If such a law is required. It, was
argued. it can be enacted at the Close
of the war.
The conferees. however, agreed upon
Senator Falls amendment, which gives
the soldiers under q the same home
stead rights as those who have attained
majority.
There was a little surprise for the
senate conferees when the house con-
ferees accepting the senate amendment
for ohe government to furnish officers
uniforms and equipment at cost price.
This provision was changed to permit
the secretary of war to prescribe STAN
dard officers uniforms and equipment
to be sold to the officers by the quar-
termasters department
