MILLION tABORERS NEEDED
1t Is Up to NonessentiaIs To Furnish
Men for War Work.
At Last the ''Busi1ress as UsuaI' Greed
Must Be Cast Aside.

Washington, Aug. 23.-The fact that
there is now shortage in war work of
one million unskilled laborers and that
the reserve of skilled workers is ex-
hausted developed here at confer
ence of field agents of the federal en-
ployment service. Further eurtail-
ment of nonessential production is
planned to release men for war work
The labor shortage is so serious that
completion of a number of important
war projects for the army and navy is
being delayed, 1t was stated at the
conference. The field agents decided
that the only way in which the needed
laborers could be secured was to take
them from nonessential industry.
1.-The time has come for the entire
nation to realize that business as usual
is no longer possible" Nathan A.
Smith, assistant director of the en-
ployment service, told the conference.
IF we are to end the war quickly, the
production of luxuries and nonessen-
tials in this country must come to an
end. 1t is a question of ending the
war quickly or having it dragged on
indefinitely.
Manufacturers must give up the
creation of needless goods, workers
must be willing to change from nom
essential to war production even at a
hardship to- themselves; the public at
large must stop buying luxuries and
Thereby make the problem OF CurCa1l
ing noressentia1s easier
List OF Nonessentials.
Indication of how the nonessentials
may be combed was given today when
the community labor board of the
District of Columbia announced a list
of twenty-four classes of work regard
ed as nonessentia1. Employers in this
class are called upon to voluntarily re-
lease their unskilled labor for war
work. Community boards are being
organized thruout the country by the
department of labor, and they are to
work IN close cooperation with local
draft boards.
Following are the industries which
the district board. the first to make an
announcement. has listed as nones-
sentia1:
Motor car industries accessories

London, Aug. 23.-Do not imagine
because the doughboys have not been

Byng and other functions that they
are not on the job.
The fact is that altho they are else
where they are now contributing to
the allies success even more effective

they are actually going over the top
at Chateau Thierry and Scissors, along
the Marine, ETC.
For it is primarily due to increases
in the American front lines south of
the present battle area that Marshal
Foch has been enabled to acquire the
necessary mobility and elasticity OF his
forces for the purpose of quick, sur
prising punches, here and there. The
bewildering attacks not only have
gained important strategic and geo.
graphical detectives, but have been
the means of frazzling the enemy's
nerves thru constant guessing and
worrying.
The battle must, more than ever.

most capable military writers OBJ

1t is the presence in the field of the
powerful, growing body of Americans

handling of the enemy. which is now
the feature of the western campaign.
American Help Vital.
Experts are unanimous in the opin-
ion that Foch not only could not have
achieved the initiative without the big
American help, but that he could not
maintain this advantage without the
steadily progressive increase of such
help.

thanks to America, no matter how
desperately the boche may resist here
and there. the days of deadlock are
forever passed. The allies thru com
plete command of the situation are
able to impose their will on the enemy
when and where they like.
But this does not mean the end is
even yet in sight. German logged
ness, tenacity, and recuperative pow
ers must always be reckoned with.

URGED STRONG HAND
Cars Mother Wrote Him, Urging
Policy of Unrelenting Power.
Letter Is Part of Papers Taken From
Nicholas by RevoIutionists.

Amsterdam, Aug. pa policy of
"unrelenting power" was urged upon
the former Russian emperor by his
mother. the dowager empress of Rus
STA, early in 1906. according to the Sc
cret diary of the emperor as published
by the Isvestia of Moscow. The al
legged letter was dated January II,
1906, shortly before the assembly of
the first duma. According to- Mos
cow dispatch to the Reiniscffe West
falische Zeitung of Essen the abbre-
waited text reads:
The Letter.
Dear Nicky-We are deeply thank
full for your dear letter. 1t breathes a
new spirit. If earlier we had been
more energetic and shown more firm
ness in the exercise of power, much
would have beeen avoided. I do not
understand why Witte Gone time Rus
sian pren1ier) lost so much time. Now
to the question which greatly occu-
pies and disquiets me-the question
of thu cabinet and crown domains
which these swine want to take from
US according to their various party
programs. They must be impressed
with the fact that no one shall dare to
interfere with these personal rights of
the emperor and his family. It would
be great historical mistake If we
now gave way in the slightest point.
Every concession would be interpreted
as weakness. Our absolute principle
must now be a policy of unrelenting
power"

ly in Russian and partly in French,
closes With the repeated admonition,
