Combined travelling exhibits OF the
Departments OF War, Navy, and
Agriculture. the Food Administration
the Bureau of Fisheries of the De
partment of Commerce, and the Bu-
reau OF Mines, Of the Department of
the Interior, Will start this week on

ing the exhibits is being done at
Alexandria The combined exhibits
will require eleven freight cars. Two
cars will be sent on each of five

The combination OF Government
exhibits is designed to drive home
the lesson that every activity OF the
American Government and the Amer
lean people has direct bearing on
winning the war. Exhibits of the
War and Navy Departments are to
present the most striking features
OF the fighting forces, while the
other departments will show exhibits
relating to the greater production
and conservation OF food.

BOCHE PRISONERS
ASFARM WORKERS
IN j. S. PROPOSED

Americans had taken about 500
German prisoners previous to the
present big drive, according to in
formation at the War Department to-
day. How many we have as a result
of the present offensive is unknown.
as cabling of constant prisoner re-
ports has been superseded by mail or
courier reports. Several thousand
must be in American hands. how
ever.
An official discussion OF the matter
of bringing such prisoners back to
America is again heard.
Secretary OF War Baker said today
there is mo present intention" of
adopting such a plan, and State De-
partment officials said questions
about it had arisen from time to time,
but that at present there were no
new Developments.
This question probably will come
up for discussion at the forthcoming
American-German prisoner conference
at Berne.
At present, Germany insists that
her prisoners be held in France and
England. This has been followed by
the allies. lest Germany send allied
prisoners to Turkey or some other
place where extreme cruelty might be
p-acticed
1t has been pointed out that Ger
man prisoners could be used to ad-
vantage on American farms and that
by bringing them here a certain
amount of tonnage used to supply
them food could be saved for better
purposes.

HAGERSTOWNFACE
BREAD FAMINE DUE
TOFLOUR SHORTAGE

HAGERSTOwN. Md, July 31.-This
city is on the verge of bread famine
as a result OF bakers not being able
to secure enough flour, they claim.
Several large bakeries have been run
ming on half time, while smaller bak-
cries are practically closed, and hun
dreds of homes have been put upon
short-bread ration. while a number Of
families have been without bread for
nearly two days.
Owing to the food regulations, many
housewives have stopped baking bread.
and the demand made upon the bak-
cries has more than doubled. thereby
helping to reduce their stock of flour
and make the shortage more serious.
Some of the large bakeries have
been compelled to stop selling bread
to grocers in the city and have cut
of their shipments out Of the city in
order to meet the enormous demand
for bread here

HUNTINGTON. w. Va, July 30
Making moonshine whiskey between
pastoral calls is no sin in the sight
Of God, although it is a violation OF
man-made laws, according to Rev
Henry Martin Farley, an aged
preacher OF Wyoming county, who is
under bond to appear before a United
States commissioner here on a charge
Of Illicit distilIinE.
While no formal confession has
been made, the venerable preacher

sought TO get rich as a result of
this surreptitious employment

He realizes. he saws. that he has
violated the laws Of the land. but
contends that he has not violated the
law of God.
Typical Mountain Preacher.
Kew hShTy mai TN / dTley Is a y 0l-
cal mountain preacher of the sort
found in the hills of West Virginia,
in some sections OF Kentucky and
west Tennessee and north Louisiana
Only a few of them remain.
He belongs to that sect known as
the Primitive, OF Hardshcll Raptists.
HardshelI Baptists believe that the
earth Is fiat; that the sun do move;"
that IL is unscriptural to educate
preachers. They hold that when the
Lord calls a man TO the ministry He
will put the words OF wisdom in his
mouth and the fire of the spirit in
his heart
FoOt-washing is an ordinance of
the church. Instead OF administering
baptism by immersion, sprinklinE or
pouring. as followed by other
churches. they induct new members
into the church by washing their feet.
Feet Bathed In Church.
Following a revival. when a num-
Der of new members are taken in, the
front seats of the church are reserved
for them. There is a bowl for each
new member. Usually three or four
hardshell preachers participate in the
ceremonies.

Most of them adopt Billy Sunday

GERMANS ADMIT

AMSTERDAM. July 31.-Keen and
reckless in attack but clumsy in de-
tense is the description OF American
lighters by a correspondent to the
Berlin Vorwaerts. Americans TAX
ing part in the recent Aisne-Marne
9rlve are those who have been in
france one year or more, the cor
respondent says.
The consensus among our front
troops is that the fighting value of
Ine American soldiers in nowise
should be misunderstood" says the
correspondent. "Boastful of their
American superiority and in high
spirits, owing to the fulsome flat
terry of the French public, they rush
INTO the fire with naive recklessness,
but as yet they have not learned to
night in extended order, and how to
protect themselves skillfully from ar
uIIery fire, and their losses are
usually heavier than the others.
The pile of American dead, for
instance, fronting Monthier hills, is
only comparable with the Russian
corpse-strewn fields at the time of
Brussiloffs offensive"

LONDON, July 31.-By concentrat-

make a gain OF approximately 100
600 tons OF shipping a month for the
past quarter, Sir Eric Geddes, first
lord OF the British admiralty told

One year ago the net loss was $780,

then were not being destroyed as fast
as the Germans were building them.
and the shipyards were short of men

The situation has been met by a
comprehensive program OF antisub-

pliances and by building merchant
ships on a greatly increased scale.

URGED UPON BOARD

Chairman Zouck, of the Maryland
State Roads Commission, and B. Hor-
ace Griswold, jr., Maryland repre-
sentative Of the Capital Issues Com
mittee, appeared yesterday before
that committee in Washington and
urged the approval OF the action of
the last Maryland legislature in ad-
vertising the sale on August of
81, ,5OO,O 900 OF the $4,000, 900 road loan,
the proceeds of which are to be de-
voted to the repair of roads, many
being damaged by heavy army and
other trucks
Mr. Zouck laid before the commit
tee an outline of the purposes. ac-
companied by a map, for which the
proceeds from the loan will be spent
This was the first connected and
authoritative statement of the details
of repairs for which the money will
be spent
Among the projects is the recon
struction and widening OF the Elk
ashinGton boulevard
which has been partially destroyed
by army trucks, as well as by other
trucks doing hauling for Camp
Meade, the proving grounds at Aber-
deem and the powder works at Stamp
Point. Large sections OF the road
will have TO be rebuilt OF concrete,
and this work has already been
started by the commission. The
parts remaining intact will have to
be re-enforced with concrete shoul-
ders, and, il this is not done, prob
ably the greater portion of the road
will be destroyed before next sum
mer. as il was not built to carry the
abnormal traffic which is now pass
ing over 1t. This work has the ap-
proval of the United States High
ways Council.

MONUMENT TO SLACKERS
ACCOMPLISHES PURPOSE

Quite an extraordinary situation
was precipitated in a small Iowa COM
munity recently through the refusal
of a prosperous family of ~conscien-
tious objectors" to contribute aid in
any form to the prosecution of the
war, says the Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The family, consisting of
eight members, is a prominent one
engaged in agriculture. and aroused
Indignation by its steadfast refusal
to purchase Liberty bonds, or sub
scribe to the Red Cross after repeated
approaches.
As an outgrowth of this attitude, a
monument, perhaps one of the strang-
est that has ever been erected in
America, was raised in the heart OF
the business district of the town 1t
was about eight feet in height and
painted yellow. On each Of its four
sides, beneath the inscription: "Dedi-
Gated to C County Slackers," ap-
peared the names Of each Of the eight
