devote his entire. time to duties as
president of the National City bank,
the name of Ward NJ. Burgess of
Omaha is heard as successor to
Mr.. Vanderlip.
For several months Mr.. Vander1ip
has been developing plans for more
direct connection between the treas

supervising committee. The central
organization, which he. has built up,
e will continue to function much as
heretofore. ..~~.,
State directors have been asked to
meet this week with governors of
federal reserve banks to work out
practical plans by which the gover-
nors hereafter will direct war saw
ings work in their respective districts
Eventually it is planned that the war
savings organization in each locality
shall devote themselves also to
assisting in Liberty loan Campaign
ing. In any case the committees
will continue active work between
Liberty loan campaigns to promote
more equal distribution of the bonds.

Not Bound by Priorities CIassi'

Washington, Sept. 9.-The new
priorities classification of industry
announced yesterday by the war in
dustries board will not bind district
draft boards in determining deferred
classification on occupational grounds
of men between the ages of 18 and As,
who are to register Thursday. The
boards may determine that other in
dustries are necessary, but in grant
ing deferred classifcations they must
satisfy themselves that the industry
is necessary, and that the individual
registrant is essential to the industry.
The new draft regulations provide
for an advisory committee of three to
each district board. one to be- named
by the Department of Labor, one by
the Department of Agriculture, and
the third by the board itself, which
may introduce at hearings on defer

"Such lists shall not be regarded as

ployment within the meaning of the
faw and regulations, nor shall such
lists prevent the district board from
holding as necessary any industry,

agriculture, not contained therein.
Such preference lists and other facts
and information in the possession of
such advisers will supplement the in

WAR PRISONERS
TELL OF BRUTAL
HUN TREATMENT
Repatriated Britishers From
Germany in Starving Con-
dition; Workers Get
Little Food.

London, Sept. 9.-The brutal treat
ment of prisoners of war by the Ger
mans is described by wounded British
prisoners repatriated from Germany,
who have arrived at The Hague. All
prisoners are badly treated and are on
virtually starvation rations. The
prison camps at Soltau and Crossen,
in Prussia, are reported to be in par
ticularly evil condition.
Belgian prisoners, who were the
most numerous at Soltau, were ap-
preached several months ago by two
civilians who claimed to be Flemings
with the object of inducing them to
side with Germany. The Belgians
stoned the emissaries and made
things unpleasant for the command
ant who introduced the ENJOYS, with
the result that the whole camp was
visited with punishment for a fort

League of Nations" Is
Latest Idea From Hun
Peace PrOpagdndistS

Amsterdam, Sept. g. Another
shot from the Teutonic peace propa-
ganda artillery has been fired by
Count Czernin, the former Austro-
Hungarian minister of foreign af-
fairs. In an article in the Vienna
Neu Freie Presse. he favors the
idea of a league of nations.
The count says an overwhelming
majority of the German people,
with the emperor at its head, hon
estly desires lasting peace. He
holds that the authoritative factors
in the Berlin cabinet today openly
favor the proposal of a league of
nations and that Baron Burian. the
stro-Hungarian foreign minister,
is not antagonistic to this idea.
Therefore" Count Czernin con-
cludes there is nothing to prevent
the central powers working out the
fundamental principles of this new
world order and in bringing them
before the world"

French Pay Honor to Many
Heroes of Marne Conflict

Paris, Sept. 9.-All France paid
tribute today to the heroes of the
Marne in celebration of the fourth
anniversary of the historic conflict,
The celebration took on an added
significance from the recent series of
victories over the same fighting
ground as four years ago and the par
ticipation of American troops in the
new battle of the Marne.
Although the day was overcast
there was a great pilgrimage to the
battlehelds and many ceremonies
were held in villages slowly recover
ing from the devastation wrought
when the Germans made their first
sweep toward Paris. The principal
function was at Meaux, which bears
the scars of the battle four years ago.
Memorial services were held at the
Meaux cathedral and were attended
by representatives of the allied gov
ernments, the army, navy and all
branches of public life.
An impressive discourse was de-
livered by the Bishop of Arras, who
likened the battle of the Marne to

relief to Orleans. On the battle
field Jacques Dumesnil, under sec
retary for war of aviation, made an
address on behalf of the French gov
ernment. Other ceremonies were
held in many cities throughout
France.
General Pershing sent magnifi-
cent wreath, on behalf of the Ameri-
can army, to Meaux, where Bishop
Marbeau placed it among the graves
on the battlefield. Two other
wreaths were placed in the cathe-
dral at the foot of the statue of loan
D,Arc. One wreath was inscribed
"FrSm the American Soldier" and
the other was from the Knights OF
Columbus.
The graves of 80 American soldiers
who died in the American hospital
at Meaux after the fighting at Chateau

Washington, Sept 9.-(Special Tel
egram. )-Senator Hitchcock. at the
instance of the sub-boss of the demo
cratic party in Nebraska, National
Committeeman Arthur Muller has
for the time being, the
batch of postoffice nominations sent
to the senate by President Wilson.
Two or three names on the list
do not appeal to the junior member
of the firm of Hitchcock and Mullen
and as he wants only democrats on
guard over the Nebraska postoffices.
For the next few years the acid test
is to be applied to those who just
now are seriously in doubt.
In fact the charge is made that one
or two of the nominees belong to the
Nebraska bolsheviki and an /. w. w.
has also crept into the list.
In order to fortify himself with
documentary evidence as to two of
these suspects, Arthur Mullen left for
Nebraska today.
Mullen Lands Job.
Apropos of Sir Arthur Mullen, he
goes home with a comfortable job
tucked under his arm, having been
attorney to the new War
Finance board, which will pass on
loans to cattle growers and whose
headquarters will be at Kansas City.
1t is understood Mullen's job is
worth $4,000 year and will not take
a very great deal of his time to han-
die.
James F. O'Donnell, the banker of
O'Neill, has been made a member of
this same board, Nebraska. through
the fine, Italian work of Hitchcock
ct al, landing two jobs on this i'm
portant adjunct of the Treasury de-
partment.
Dahlman Has Pick.
Ex-Mayor James c. Dahlman is in
to select a job. He has
three to choose from. according to
Senaor Hitchcock's Office force, and
it is up to him to make a selection.
Until he decides the very important
question the nature of his posi-
ton is to remain in camera.
