DUTY CALLS TO FIRING LINE

Prompt Change.

A copy Of q letter received BY the
local draft board OF Prince Edward
county reached the office Of the adiu-
tant-general here yesterday. a letter
IN which an unusual request was
made, In II the writer asked that he
be assigned to class of the selective
draft instead of to class 4 in which he
mad been placed. The spirit OF sacri-
fee and patriotism ambodied in the
appeal form one of the most intense
appeals TO those hiding behind the de-
tendency clause of the QUESTIONABLE
that has yet appeared
The letter follows:

Prince Edward. Judge J. NJ Crute.

Gentlemen Of the Board:

cation in the selsctive draft. ] see
that you have assigned me to class 4.

This letter Is in the nature of an
appeal from your classification, as
understand that this may be done
within i've CD days from the date of
the notice. Please grant my appeal
and notify me that 7 have been as

have talked this thing over many
times and we think we know what we
are asking. She ana the baby will be

the actions OF the young men in this
section. in trying to escape by plead
ing exemption for some reason or
other.
Although this has nettled me
greatly, ii does not take precedence
over my strongly fixed desire to be
on the firing lire. Someone, anyone,
has said and. will say again, that a.
fellow Is a fool to so in when he may
stay out. but little thought back
over the histories of all wars, will
show that 1t has always taken large
number of such fools to raise the
morale of the armies and send them
through TO victory.

RAILROADS FIGHT
PENDING BILL
Will Ask Congress TO Limit
U. S. Control TO Period
OF War
CALL TIE NEW
MEASURE VAGUE

NEW YORK, Jan. 81 Railroad ex-
ecutlves representing IL roads and 90
per cent. OF the mileage in the United
states, at a conference held here yes
terday TO consider plans for safeguard
ing the interests they represent while
under Federal management, decided 10
ask Congress to limit government con-
troll to the period Of the war.
The executives believe the bill now
pending In Congress is too vague be-
cause it does not set a definite date for
the government 70 relinquish the rail-
roads They could see no reason, 70
was said why 10 should not be fixed
for the duration Of the war. as has
been the case with other Industries
which have come under Federal man
agement.
The bill reported out Of committee
would empower the President % re-
tain control Of common carriers "un-
On otherwise decreed by the Congress. d"
The position was taken that TO pass
such a law would be to leave the I'm
mensely valuable railroad properties
Of the country subject to the whims Of
any new Congress that may be elected.
For that reason, the executives main
tanned IL would unsettle seriously all
the affairs Of the carriers. Limiting Of
control TO tho period of the war win
be asked as a "safety-lrst" measure.
The conference, which was held at
the Grand Central Terminal, was call
ed BY Frank Trumbull, chairman Of the
railway executives advisory board
Nearly 100 men were present. The ses-
sion was executive Among those at the
conference were Daniel Willard, presi-
dent Of the Baltimore and Ohio and
former chairman Of the Railroad War
Board; J. H. Hustis, president Of the
Boston and Maine; W. II. Truesdale,
president Of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western; Samuel Rea, president OF
the Pennsylvania; Judge r. 5. LOvett
director Of priOritles at Washington
Julius Kruttschmitt, chairman Of the
board Of the Southern Pacific; t. L.
LOOMS. president Of the Lehigh Val
ley, and L. 7. Loree, president Of the
Delaware and Hudson.
After the main conference the cXecu-
lives OF the Eastern roads met sepa-
raiely with Mr.. Loree, who formerly
was chairman Of the Eastern commit
tee, Of the Railroad War Board, in the
chair Special attention was given Ia
the needs OF the Eastern lines, although
Il was agreed their interests were close
~ interlocked with those OF the roads
