EMPLOYMENT FOR THE MEN MUS.

are DESTROYS of securing labor will be do

Robert W. Simonds, at Montpelier, who,
through his organization, viii get into
touch with the authorities whose bust
ness it is to distribute the men in en-
ployment as fast as they are mustered
out OF the United States service. This
system of placing men in employment as
soon as possible after the expiration of
their service for the government has
wonderful possibilities toward bringing
about a prompt readjustment from war
time conditions to peace conditions, only
it requires the cordial cooperation of all
those who have to do with employment
of labor and especially those who are in
need of labor at the present time or in
the near future To be sure, a large
number of the men, as they are mustered
out of service, will return to their former
places of employment and will slip into
their former positions readily, thus aid
ing in the normal resumption of indus
try. On the other hand, there will be
thousands, perhaps tens Of thousands,
who will find their old places filled or the
business so curtailed that there is no
chance for them; and others will prefer
to start in some new occupation and are,
like the ones just mentioned, somewhat
at the mercy of conditions To aid them
is the purpose of the Z. S. public service
reserve, which is now calling upon the
manufacturers and other employers OF
labor to communicate their wants Just

We do not need to bring Chill and

London, May 9.-Ex- Premier As quith's motion for the appointment of select committee to investigate the charges made by Gen. Maurice was rejected in the House of Commons to- night by vote of 293 to 1O6.
 London, May 9.-Moving a motion in the House of Commons this after noon for the appointment of a select committee to investigate the charges made by Gen. Maurice, former direc- tor of military operations at the war office, ex-Premier Asquith said he thought it was not the business of parliament to constantly inquire into the conduct of successive phases oy the war. The House of Commons. he added, had more than enough of such inquiries already
 Former Premier Asauith denied that his motion respecting the Mau- rlce affair was designed to obtain a vote of censure of the governmentl saying it was absurd to describe it as such. Should he find it his duty to censure the government, he said. he hoped that he would have the courage to do so in direct and unequivocal form.
 MT. Asquith said that when he put down his motion he thought it would be accepted by the government. He had never yet given an adverse vote on any proposal made by the govern ment. He had endeavored to help the government in the prosecution of the war and in defining the great purposes of the war and the peace for which the allies were struggling.
 Mir Asquith said neither he nor his colleagues had been concerned in the composition or publication of Gen. Matrices letter. If, as he saw, the government intended to state the facts it would be anticipating the conclus- ions of any tribunal and would be only an CT parte statement.

the crash of fallen cities and the cries of tortured humanity, the voice of the Red Cross carries clear and strong the one message of hope to our war burdened world.
 The black horror of this worlds crisis would be unbearable were it not for the spirit and work of this mighty force. The normal mind re- fuses to contemplate the situation without this saving power.
 It Is the knowledge that in every city, town and hamlet men, women and children are united in this work of declaring to the world, through the Red Cross, our message of mercy and brotherhood, that keeps our hearts from sinking under the burden of woe and sustains our faith in hu- man kind. It is the constant daily. almost hourly touch with the Red Cross work that is felt by every citi- zen in the land, that inspires us with courage and hope.
 Out of this hell of slaughter the Red Cross will guide the warning na- tions to heaven of worldwide peace and brotherhood.
 Because it is the living expression of those ideals and principles in de- fense of which we are giving our all in lives and material wealth-because on every field of death it is proclaim ing its message of life-becaase 1t keeps ever before us and the world the cause for winch we war-because 1t will preserve us in the hour of our victory from defeating ourselves-the Red Cross is the hope of the world.

 Parties of British were still holding out in Kleine Vierstraet and later the French helped to restore complete possession of this place.
 The enemys move undoubtedly was an attempt to improve his positions by way of preparation for bigger at tack to come. The assault was deliv- cred with great determination and by noon the Germans had obtained a footing in the British front line at the Ridge wood, while in the center of the sector near Vierstraet the attack ing forces had pushed in consider able distance beyond the defending front line. Both Hanks of the Germans were held up by the artillery fire.
