REPUBLICAN, NOT IN
 POLITICS IN ARKANSAS

Little Rock, June l9.-Politics does not enterinto the organization of the Insurance Federation of Arkansas. This organization is composed of in- surance agents of all kinds, life, fire, fraternal, casualty, etc. 9t the an- nuat meeting on Tuesday afternoon J, K. Sheppard was elected president, and Gordon H. Campbell secretary and treasurer.
 MT. Campbell declined to accept the office, stating that it was necessary for the organization to appear before the legislature at various times, and he being a Republican would injure the chances of the association getting favorable hearing. It was explained to Mir. Campbell that the organization was too big for politics to interfere With its functions, and besides, Re- publican was not in politics in Ar kansas. With this explanation he accepted the office.
 MT. Campbell has been a number of tunes candidate for county and state office on the Republican ticket, his name there being more a matter of form than it was desire for office Of any kind, as Mir. Campbell is very prosperous Little Rock business man and has never seriously considered be- coming state or county official.

 NEW DRAFT AGES
War Department Will Not Op- pose But Sees No Immediate Need-4,00O,0O0 By January First.

Washington, June 18.-Should con- press decide that it is necessary at thistime to extend the draft age lim- it's either below 21 or above 30 or both, no opposition will be offered by the war department.
 In authorizing this statement to- day. Secretary Baker said the depart ment could see no immediate need for such action although the date al- ready is in sight when it will become necessary to replenish class one.
 A bill by Senator France of Mary land to extend the draft to men from IS to 45, is now before the senate military committee and at hearing on it last Saturday Provost Marshal General Crowder gave it as his opin- ion extension of the draft ages would be necessary.
 The present tentative schedule of the war department is said to con- template the arming of four million men by next January 1. That would mean the calling of one million men between July and January and ab- sorbing not only the men remaining in class one from the first registra- tion as well as some 200, ,000 expected to be put in that class as the result of the reclassifcation recently ordered.
 All previous estimates of the de- partment relating to man-power have been based solely upon the men in class one. The present emergency however, has upset these decisions. The invasion of class two, it is said, would not affect the economic machin- cry of the nation to any disastrous degree.

FARMERS OF KANSAS
 FACE LABOR SHORTAGE

Little Rock, June 19.-The farmer of Arkansas is now up against it for labor, as well as material. Rice grow CTS have visited Little Rock daily for some days in an effort to persuade laborers to devote their time to grow ing the cereal that has made Grand Prairie famous. Few have gone home satisfied. A special train came from Texas with farm hands on Tuesday, but most of them went to government work after reaching Little Rock, only a few being enticed to the rice fields.
 There is a general scarcity of sacks in which to ship the crops, and offers to purchase 150,0OO lots at 35 cents each have failed to bring many sellers to light. This condition will mean much to the rice grower, should it continue, for while rice can bes hipped in bulk, as wheat, oats and corn are now being transported, the millers would be very much inconvenienced by its arrival in that form. The mills are equipped for handling rice in sacks, and they would have to sack it upon arrival if it was tobe stored to advantage.
 Arkansas planters are preparing an appeal to the government for as- sistance in getting farm labor. This has been done before in asking for delay in enforcing reporting under the draft, and conditions are now such that efforts along this line if renewed will meet with success.

need BIC HERDS
Europe's Meat Supply Must Come
From America.
Warning Nations Have Depleted Live
Stock at Enormous Rate, Eve1
Killing Dairy Cattle For Food.

American stock breeders are being
asked to conserve their flocks and
herds in order to meet Europes tre-
nendous demands for meats during
the war and probably for many years
afterward.
The United States food admins
tratton reports that American stock
ralsers have shown a disposition to
cooperate with the government In In
creasing the nations supply OF live
stock.
Germany today 10 probably better
supplied with live stock than any 9th
er European nation. When the Ger
man armies made their big advance
into France and then retreated viz
tually all the cattle in the invaded
territory approximately 1900, 600
head-were driven behind the German
Inca
But In England-where 2,4OO, 600
acres Of pasture lands have been turn
ed into grain fieids-the cattle herds
are decreasing rapidly. One Of the
reasons apparently IL the declining
maximum price scale adopted by the
English as follows: For September,
$17.76 per 100 pounds; October, SITES;
November and December. $1608; jan
larry, $14.40. The effect Of these prices
was to drive beef animals on the mar
ket as soon as possible.
In France the number OF cattle as
we'll as the quality have shown an
enormous decline during the war.
Where France had 14,807, 900 head of
cattle in 1913. she now has only 49,
81, 300, q decrease of 1868 per cent,
And France Is today producing only
one gallon OF milk compared to two
and one-hnlf gallons before the war.
Denmark and Holland have been
forced to sacrifice dairy herds for beef
because of the lack of necessary feed.
Close study Of the European meat
situation has convinced the Food Adj
ministration that the future problem
of America lies largely In the produc-
ton of meat producing animals and
dairy products rather than in the pro-
duction of cereals for export when
the war will have ceased.
