Disqualified
Men to Be
Called Soon

Yesterday adjutant General Sulli-
van received telegraphic word from the
war department, which will work a
draft order for men physically unfit
for direct war purposes.
The telegram briefly outlines a plan
whereby men who are rejected by the
local examining board from slight
cefects can be put to use in the busi-
ness that is bound to accumulate in
army matters.
The telegram advises that men SO
drafted will be paid according to rank.
The plans from the limited advice
seems to be to supply those soldier
men to the local draft OF enlistment
boards, also to the state boards, while
undoubtedly the Adjutant General will
be supplied by such help. 1t will be
necessary to select from the rejected
men those fit to fill clerical positions
IRON experience and educational
standpoint.
tial as the men sent to the front, as
the work of preparing through the Of
fees and boards is taxing the capacity
of the men SO engaged.
During the next year approximately
10000 men will have to be examined
In each case it is almost trial as "a
side from the questionairres there is
physical examination. 1t is in or
der to relieve the local board and fur
nish the necessary clerical help that
the war department has decided to
take men who have the necessary
qualifications.
Further details will be received by
the Adjutant General within a few
days when they will be made public
through the press and circular letter.

Heavy Call
For Labor

Imperative demands for more nom
skilled laborers were received today
by the state council of defense from
the United States employment service,
which has undertaken the task Of sup
plying the essential industries of the
country with laborers.
The council of defense, In the tele-
grams received this morning, is asked
to cooperate with the state branch of
the United States employment service
and all other organizations in securing
this much needed labor.
In the telegram the employment
service heads declare that a labor
shortage of a million men exists at
the present The telegram is as fol-
lows:
The big labor jam has come and
the final tabulations of labor demand
show present shortage of one million
unskilled laborers in war industries
with tremendous additional shortage
coming as soon as the new army draft
expansion increases the need for sup
plies.
The skilled labor situation is equal
ly serious. Georgia was notified that
unless the state could furnish the
eight million dollar picric acid plant
at Brunswick with five thousand la
borers at once the entire construction
force would be laid off and the plant
moved out of Georgia.
The Midvale steel plant at Coates
vile, Pa, has been forbidden to shut
down part Of its plant for lack of la
borers. Orders are being sent Neva-
da for men for home work; others to
be sent away. This demand for men
must be taken no matter what happens
to private business, but the men can
not be taken from farms, railroads or
mines. The fact herein contained
will become plain throughout the
country within ten days.
This million men must be raised
Immediately otherwise our new army
will be faced by additional instances
of lack of equipment such as were ap-
parent last winter"
According to unofficial estimates
this state has few industrieS, classed
as essential, from which 1t can
draw laborers for employment in the
industrial centers. A shortage of
labor is apparent in many mining
camps of the state and it is possible
that every available man will be sent
into the mining camps.
The U. s. Employment service bull
letin of July 18th says: A man is not
under compulsio1 to go into war work
unless his own sense of duty to his
government tells him he should do SO.
The government urges all men to fac
ilitate the task of equipping war work
with men by complying with the sug-
gestions made by the United States
Employment Service.

WHO OWNS THIS
IRON CROSS?

The Douglas County Council
of Defense has In its possession
an iron cross and is looking for
the owner of the same. The
cross was not taken from the
breast of fallen German sold
Ter on the battlefields of Europe.
but was found In a pile of rub
bish In Gardnerville together
with some German documents
of discriminating nature that
will 60 hard with the owner
should his identity be discov-
cred. The German Imperial
Government bestowed this par
ticnlar iron cross on someone
in 1914, according the inscript-
ion. probably for blowing up a
ship or munition factory in the
United States. The question
that the council of defense Is
trying to solve is, who docs the
cross belong to?

OFFICERS TELL
 IF MRS. EVANS

Laughing as the witness testified as to her language when arrested in Buckeye where she is alleged to have gone to tip off her husband and brother that the officers were wise" Mrs. Belle Evans was not at all daunted when deputies of the sheriff's office repeated her words on that occasion.
 Mrs. Evans, with Cole Evans and Earl Erwin, are on trial in Judge Stan ford's court on the charge of introduc ing liquor in the state. The second day of the trial did not complete the states testimony and it is more than probable that the case will not reach the jury today unless the case prog resses with more rapidity than it did yesterday.
 The opening statement of the coun ty attorney was carried out to the let ter by the officers who testified as to the arrest of Mrs. Evans, and the two men who are alleged to have deposited sacks of whisky on the desert and pro- ceeded to town in a whisky saturated car Under cross examination counsel for the defense sought to embarass the arresting officers and brought into prominence the fact that after her ar rest Mrs. Evans was given a drink of whisky by Deputy Sheriff E. J. War ren. Warren did not seek to conceal the fact that he had given the woman drink and had secured the informa- tion that she had gone to warn the alleged bootleggers that the officers knew their intention of bringing in whisky from California. Warren said that Mrs. Evans admitted this to him when he was bringing her to town from | Buckeye where she had been placed under arrest by Deputy Sheriff Charles | Nafzinger
 When Nafzinger met the Evans woman in Buckeye he said she greeted him by calling him a name and ask ing him what he was doing there. She then cursed him roundly
 MT. Nafzinger was asked by Mrs Evans counsel if it were not a fac that he had been called names wher he turned the flashlight on Mrs. Evan. when she sought to get change iron her personal purse
 Nafzinger denied that he so much a. glanced at Mrs. Evans when she divet down her stocking for funds to pa, for the rent of car by which she jour neyed to Buckeye.

THE REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY MORNING. MARCH
FINANCES AND
 MARKETS

NEW YORK, March 27.-The crisis in the war situation gave further pause to operations in the stock market to- day although the undertOne for most standard shares was firm to strong. Liberty bonds which dominated the trading of the previous day. were con- phratively dull, lacking definite trend.
 Rails scored extreme gains 50 l to 1% points, Reading, Norfolk and Vest ern Union Pacific, Great Northern and New York Central leading that group. Equipments notably American Car, Baldwin Locomotive, United States Steel, Bethlehem Steel and Crucible Steel were higher by one to three points at their best, Car making the greatest gain on rumors of the early placing of large contracts by the gov ernment.
 Shippings, motors and tobaccos rep- resented the backward issues, Marine preferred yielding 11a points as re- suit of it's statement of annual earn ings, which disclosed a large decrease.
 Studebaker was under constant pres- sure, losing S5s points and American Tobacco forfeited as much.
 The general bond list eased variably with Liberty issues, though recessions were mostly fractional. Total sales, par value, aggregated s9,075,0 900, Liberties supplying about 80 per cent of the whole.

Elsie Ferguson Last Time at Iamara

Elsie ferguson Last Time at lamara
 It is seldom that a story is trans planted from the book to the screen with the nicety of "The Rise of Jen- nie Cushing" in which Elsie Fergu- son, known as the most beautiful woman in the realm of theatricals, is appearing for the last showings at the Lamara today. Not an important episode of the entire story has been overlooked by Maurice Tourneur in his version of this remarkable bit ot literature. The story is vividly hu- man, depicting the trials which beset a young girl who is a child of the slums, and whose first inception of any other life than one steeped in crime is gained in a reform school. It is when she first sees the pretty surroundings of the penal institution that she determines to live so as to appreciate the happiness she feels must lie in outside world. She leaves the reformatory with hopes high and ambition strong, but society is slow to forget what it is pleased to term the term of a jailbird."

Believing that the devil in form of little boys was attacking them, the Holy Rollers took steps to bring about the reformation of the youngsters through court action.
 Charging the kiddies with disturb ing the peace, s. $. Scull appeared in the juvenile court yesteday and complained that the youthful de- fendants tried to break up the re- ligious gathering by throwing stones and flooding them out. It was al- leged that the youngsters had at tached a hose to the rear of the building where the meetings art. held, 130 East Monroe street, and that they meant to put it in full force and effect.
 It is understood that the instiga- tors of the alleged act made their getaway and two other boys, being in the vicinity at the time. were made the defendants. Indians, ne- groes and a white woman testified against the boys, but their evidence did not disclose any wrongful act. and the case was dismissed by Judge Lyman.
