POLISH DIVISION IS

ACCORDING TO CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE MORE THAN 100000 TRAINED MEN ARE AVAIL

Harbin, Sept "A movement eX- ceeding perhaps that Of the Czecho- Slovaks is being organized by Polish officers to form a Polish division to fight in Siberia westward to theird op pressed fatherand as integral units in the American army According to con seryatiye estimates an army of more than 100000 trained militarists is ila mcdiatey available in the regions of
 Iarbin, Nikolsk and Vladigostok
 Large corps Of railway men also can be utilized if necessary to take over the Chinese Eastern railway. The funds to be used in creating the Pc fish army are to be considered loan to the Polish people or their govern ment. Ii is believed that if the Polish organization is successful the Ukrain- fans will begin a similar movement and because of the close relationship between the Magyars and the Poles it is considered possible that many Of the Magyars may be won over to tho side of the entente allies
 The Poles have asked that they le promptly granted recognition by the United States government so that they may aid in opposing the spread of IGerman aggression, as well as their own freedom
 Entente allied officials here sec three benefits to be derived from the encouragement of the Poles.
 First, they say, if would obviate the necessity of moving additional troops across the Pacific, second, the allied forces now in Siberia could be moved westward to strengthen the Murmln coast expedition. ultimately bringing pressure to Lear on the western front. and third. an army composed of Ccheo- Sloyaks.

 INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS.

Washington, Sept 16-Complete returns from the registration last Thursday in sixteen states and the District of Col"mbia, of men between the ages of IS and 45 years, were received today by Provost Marshal Crwoder They showed a total of 3 3.298,G men, as against the estimate of 3,232,267. The national registra- ton is expected to be l3.009.000

 Complete returns from the more populous sections of the country have not yet been received. but projections made on the basis of partial totals from those sections indicate that these will not reach the estimate. or ficials do not believe any appreHi- able number of men evaded yegistra- ton They ascribe the fluctuations of the actual totals as compared with the estimates to industrial conditions brought about by the war.

FOUR SHIPS ASSIC NED
FOR EXPORT COTTON

Washington, December 17.-Four
ships have been assigned to the over
seas cotton trade and five others to
trade routes along the east coast of
South America, the shipping board
announced today.
This is partial ALLEGATION of the
100000 tons of shipping returned by
the war department to the board.
The four ships in the cotton trade
will operate one each out of Calves
ton, New Orleans, Savannah and
Charleston, and it is hoped that a
fifth ship can be placed out of Mo-
bile next week.
Included in the ships said to have
been returned to the shipping board
are the. following: Dutch, 40; Jap
anese, %; Norwegian, IL; Sudan, 3;
Chinese, / Russian, /, and Ameri-
can, 20. A number of the ships are
in foreign ports at the present time
and several weeks must eiapse before
the board can decide where they can
be assigned.

MONEY ONLY OBJECT or
THIEVES AS CHECKS AND.
VALUABLES WERE LEFT
Five Homes Visited In Mari
eta In One Night
Probably the Same Band Were Seen
On Tuesday Night by Several Diff
ferent Parties, But Robbers Are
Still at Large

At some time on Monday night,
the homes of large number of Ma
rietta citizens were entered by burg
lars, and in many places they secured
various sums of money ranging from
few dollars up to as much as thirty
dollars.
They secured the latter sum from
the home Of Mr.. C. N. Nell on Law
renee Street and also got twenty
two dollars from the home of Mr..
Guy Boyd.
Among the other residences report
ed as entered were those of Messrs
John Black, Dixie Underwood and E.
L. Robertson.
In no instance was anything but
money reported as taken, checks and
other valuables which might prove
clues by which to trace, were left
behind as dangerous property.
The robberies were bold ones, and
the clothing of sleeping residents
was searched in nearly every case
being taken from the sleeping rooms.
The robber who thus plies his
trade would not hesitate to take hui
man life in order to escape, and we
would caution extreme vigilance in
locking doors and windows.
Negligence which makes entrance
easy, is to invite visits from Prov
lers who are bold enough to rob
houses, and in this matter as in others
an ounce of prevention is worth more
than pound of cure.
The penalty for conviction of rob
berry is severe. but the infrequence
with which the robbers are caught
makes desperate men take chances.

YOU MADE A PROMISE
ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP 1T =?

Some time ago various people
throughout the county promised to
buy certain amounts of War Savings
Stamps during this year.
The year is nearly gone. Have
you kept your promise? Are you
going to keep it?
Are you going to keep faith with
your own government? The money
was needed for war purposes and
has been so spent. Are you going
to lend Uncle Sam the money you
promised to lend him?
War Savings Stamps are as safe
as anything could be. AS safe as the
currency which the government is
sues, and even better because they
pay interest.
A strict record of Stamp sales has
been kept and there will have to be
an accounting.
Will you be a defaulter when I'm
Gle Sam checks up his best of prom
ises
The Mems Patriotic League has
charge of the pledges. When will you
redeem yours?

Washington, December 1.-Two
hundred thousand men must be re-
cruited into the navy next year to
take the places of those demObilized.
Captain H. Laning, chief of the hu-
