sustained slight injuries during their
rush to exits.

Secretay Announces Program Under
Which Forces Will Come From
"Run of Draft"

Washington, Sept. 22.-The pro-
gram under which the navy and the
marine corps will secure the men
hereafter needed was announced to-
day by Secretary Daniels, after con-
ference with representatives of his
department, the marine corps and
the provost marshal generals office.
The navy is to have an average of
$4,000 men monthly, while the ma
rine corps will get 5000 monthly for
four months and 1,5O0 each month
thereafter.
Of the navy's allotment of $4,000
it may enlist or enroll men who have
special qualifications for certain
navy work, but the remainder will
come from ''the run of the draft"
navy officials calling out skilled men
to meet as far as possible. the special
needs of the service. Men who now
hold or may hereafter be given de-
erred classification on account of
dependency will be permitted to en-
list in the navy as the higher pay
given is expected to do away with
the possibility of hardships to the
dependents. Those who have had
PREVIOUS service in the navy also will
be permitted to reenlist.

for the Federal Labor Division in
South Carolina, will be in Abbeville,
this, Tuesday afternoon, and will

just now that everybody is interest
ed in it, and it will be worth while
for everybody who can do so to hear
Mr.. Wood. He speaks with the au-
thority of the Federal Government
and he has something to say which
we all should hear. Make it a point
to hear him.

CONVERSION OF
LIBERTY LOAN BONDS
To Holders of 40 Bonds of tho
First Liberty Loan Converted and
40 Bonds Of the Second Liber-
ty Loan:

"The privilege of conversion which
arose in consequence Of the issue Of
4 1-49e bonds of the Third Liberty
Loan will expire on November 9th
and under existing law cannot be
extended or renewed, Holders Of
these 41e bonds lost nothing by ex-
ercising the privilege of conversion
and gain 1-4T interest per annum.
Holders of 40 bonds should not
wait until the last moment to exer-
else the privilege of conversion but
proceed to do so promptly. Delay
will result in overburdening the
banking institutions of the country
and the Treasury Department by
making it necessary to handle all con
versions at the last moment, and may
result in the loss of the privilege of
conversion altogether.
Holders of coupon bonds are
strongly advised to request issue of
registered bonds in order to protect
themselves against the risk of loss,
theft and destruction of their bonds.
Official Department Circular No.
LA, with form of application, has
been distributed to Federal Reserve
Banks and banks and trust companies
throughout the United States. These
institutions are asked, as matter of
patriotic service, to assist bond
holders in exchanging 4?e bonds for
i 1-4rt bonds and in registering
their bonds"

Drastic Ruling
To Enlist Labor
NON-ESSENTIALS DRAFTED IN
OTHER EMPLOYMENT OR
FIGHT.

The War Industries Board will is
sue at once the most drastic regula-
tions ever promulgated in this coun-
try compelling male citizens of the
United States engaged in non essen
tial occupations to 60 into essential
employment or fight, according to a
ruling from Washington received by
the State Council of Defense. These
regulations are being compiled and
will be mailed to local labor boards
in the next few days.
Because of present million and
a half labor shortage, both skilled
and unskilled, in war industries with
an increased army coming" said the
statement to the State Council of
Defense, Nathan A. Smyth, assist
ant director of the General United
States Employment Service, is today
mailing most drastic instructions
ever issued in this country to all
community labor boards instructing
them to prepare and publish in every
city of the country lists of non es-
sential positions now being held by
men that could be filled by women.
The result will be that men failing
or refusing to get out of such posi-
tions on their own accord and take
UP essential work will be looked up
on as slackers. The order is intend
ed to force the hand of both non es-
sential labor and employers thereof.
"The lists probably will include,
clerks and office help, ticket sellers
of all kinds, attendants and similar
occupations. This is in line with
Provost Marshal General Crowder's
work or fight order, with instruc-
tions already issued for the placing
of women in industries, with the or
der of the War Industries Board
stopping unnecessary construction,
with actions limiting bank loans and
the taking of raw materials from non
essential industries. Mr.. Smythe's
order may ultimately become the
most drastic of all: for community
labor boards will insist that no man
shall occupy position which a wo-
man can fill. This nation must work
work or fight, and the order is made
necessary because employers of non
essential labor have, in many cases,
failed to meet the issue squarely."
The publication of the lists is to
be progressive in character, with the
lines drawn closer from day to day,
according to the instructions receiv-
ed, and as the work progresses vari-
Gus industries will be combed fer

Macedonian Front Sees Entente
Fsrse Wedge Into Enemy Positions
for Important Gains.

With the violence of the opera
tisls on the Western front in France
considerably diminished in intensity,
the Turks in Palestine and the Bull
garians and their allies in Macedonia
are being put to the test. But no
where thus far have they been able
to hold back, or even to counteract,
the snslaughts of their foes.
In Palestine the Turks seemingly
are in the process of being crushed /;
in Macedonia the entente forces are
driving sharp wedges for consider
able distances into the enemy fronts.
In France and Flanders where
there has been no fighting of import
ance above patrol encounters, the
British, French and American troops
have kept the upper hand and ad-
vaaoed their respective lines.
British Sweep Forward.
- OF transcendant interest, for the
moment, at least, are the operations
Of the British General Allenby's
forces in Palestine. Here in less
than four days the British have
swept forward in the center between
the river Jordan and the Mediterra-
mean and taken famous Nazareth,

while to the northeast the friendly
Arab forces of the King of Hejaz
have cut all railway communication
in front of the fleeing Turks and are
standing barrier to their escape by
way OF the eastern plains.
More than $4,000 Turks had been
made prisoner by the British and
guns in excess of 120 had been
counted when the last reports from
General Allenby were received and
still others had not been counted
owing to the rapidity of the move

On the Lorraine front the Ameri-

raids against the Germnas and taken

Several guns also were captured.

ALLIES IN CHARGE
NORTHERN RUSSIA
Establish Protectorate
In Rear of Entente
Front.
PATROLLlNG IN ARCHANGEL
Action Result of Attempted Over
throw Of Tchaikovsky Govern
ment by Tchaplin.

a result of an attempt to overthrow
the Tschaikovsky government the AL
lied diplomatic and military chiefs
today assumed temporary direction
and established protectorate in the
region in the rear of the Allied front
pending the adjustment of political
disputes. This decision followed the
arrest of M. Tschaikovsky and all but
two members of his government ear
ly Thursday by party of conser-
yatist officers, headed by Col. Tchal-
pin, the Russian army commander,
who sought to establish a new re-
gime. NJ. Tschaikovsky and his min
listers were taken on board ship en-
route to the Solovetsk monastery,
from where they were returned by
order of the Allied ambassadors, with
the APPROVAL Of Consul General Poole.
Meanwhile the Allied forces, includ-
ing the American troops, are patron-
ing the city assuring tranquility and
a just settlement of all disputes.
The Allied ambassadors had abso-
lutely no desire to interfere in inter-
al affairs, but they considered the
Fchaplin party's attempt to estab-
lish themselves by stealth and force
to be incompatible with the princi-
pies for which the Allies are fighting.
As soon as he learned Thursday
morning of the coup de tat Ameri-
can Ambassador Francis called . e6n-
ference of the diplomats and Coun-
Gil General Poole with the result that
the government was prohibited from
functioning and the Tschaikovsky
ministers were ordered Immediately
returned pending an adjustment and
the proclamation prepared. Mean
while, however, proclamations by
Tchalpin and Ianoff and Dedusenko,
who were not arrested, and the
Tschaikovsky ministers appeared in
the streets. These several proclama-
tions so confused the people that
second Allied decision became neces-
sary for working men and operatives
before the Allied decision became
known, called strikes which are being
adjusted. The Tchalpin group con-
tends that it was not fairly repre-
sented in the government. The pro-
clamation by Dedusenko charged that
Tchalpin was attempting to restore
a monarchy, headed by Grand Duke
Michael Alexandrovitch, brother of
the late Emperor, who, they contend,
is hiding in Archangel. Of this there
is no proof.
Archangel is generally tranquil an
the people are watching the Amari-
can and other guards, apparently
satisfied with the fairness of the AL
lies.
M. Tschaikovsk and members of
his cabinet conferred with the Allied
ambassadors in an effort to reach an
adjustment satisfactory to all.
