thousand French civilians from the
occupied districts of northern France
have been sent to Russia by the Ger
mans and are being forced to per
form hard labor, according to infor-
nation obtained by Baron Cochin, a
former cabinet member.
These civilians, 400 of whom are
women, are among those whom Ger
many offered to exchange for Alsa-
tians who have escaped to France.
They were sent to Russia after the
rejection of the proposal, which Ger
many attempted to place before the
French government through the Holy
See and Baron Cochin.

American women can profit by the

WI Never Win War Until Women Avake She Says

The Importance of using women to
help "put over" the Liberty Loan
was emphasized by Miss Bresette.
"It has been said that financing the
war is mans game. But the respon-
sibility rests on every woman.
Indiana women stand well in pat
riotic service, Miss Bresette said. In
organized communities the women are
showing excellent results and are
promising to be important factors in
making the third Liberty Loan sue

Miss Bresette herself practices the
sacrifice which she breaches. For

FARM COLONY ESTABLISHED ON

Gen. Terrazas was the most wealthy

of Chihuahua, estimated at 100000
acres.
Gen. Murguia has established him

RIVER BOATS DO BIG LIVE STOCK
CARRYING TRADE

Mississippi river boats hauled more
live stock to the Independent stock
yards at ST. Louis during the first half
of this year than they did in CORE
spending period last year, thus re-
lieving materially rail transportation,
according to a report of the bureau of
markets of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
More than one-third of the receipts
of cattle and hogs at the Independent
yards in the last four months came
by the river route and now practically
all the Mississippi river boats using
st. Louis as a terminal carry some
live stock. While boat rates are a
trifie higher than rail rates the stock
reaches the market in better condition
and shows less shrinkage.
The loss in dead and crippled ami
mails is small compared with the loss
in shipments made by rail. Usually
less than carloads are shipped by in
dividual owners and a system of tag
ging permits the stock of more than
one man to be confined in the same
pen.

STUDENTS ARMY
TRAINING CORPS;
What IT means
Letter Written BY Mr.. Cochran to
Boys Of Kentucky in Regard to
Training Corps

Hon. w. D. Cochran of this city,
chairman of the committee on Educa-
ton of the State Council of Defense
is sending the following explanatory
letter to the boys of Kentucky:
The Students Army Training Corps
is the name given to the military or
ganization to be perfected in the col
leges this fall.
All able-bodied students in the col
lege where corps is organized should
enlist. The enlisted student does not
receive pay, because he is on inactive
service. He is, however, in the mill
tary service of the United States. He
may attend camp for six weeks dur
ing the summer, when he receives
pay.
His relation to the draft:
The member of the Students Army
Training Corp is a volunteer in mill
tary service. He will, however, regis
ter when he reaches the age and upon
notice by the President. The draft
board will not call him for induction
as long as he remains a member of
the Students Army Training Corps.
Not an exemption plan:
This is not a plan for the exemp-
ton of college students. The purpose
of the plan is to provide for the very
important needs of the army for high
| ~ trained men as officers, engineers,
chemists, doctors, administrators. The
plan is an attempt to mobilize and de-
velop the brain power of the young
men of the county for those services
which demand special training
The presumption is that, for the
next year, the largest proportion OF
the students reaching the required age
will be, used to supply the officers
needed for the army. 1t is under
stood that at least four or five times
as many officers will be required as
the total number who will he grad
uated from all American Colleges and
Universities. Enlistment in the S A.
T. c.. therefore. while it does not
promise an Officers Commission, is at
the present time the plaincst road
leading in that direction. Enlistment
may he cancelled by withdrawal from
college.
Opportunity will be given for tho
enlisted student who so elects, to
transfer from army to navy or to be
assigned in one of the various special
corps.
Regular uniforms, including hats
shoes and overcoats, will be furnish
ed free to all members of the S. A. T

MOVE THE MUNITIONS

1t has been pretty thoroughly dem
onstrated in this war that munitions
are necessary as men behind the fir
ing line. In fact they are the big re-
quisite Soldiers cannot fight effec-
lively with dubbed rifles. Shrapnel
is useless for machine gun use. Six
teen inch shells cannot be tossed into
an enemy dugout by hand.
Every gun in the whole outlay must
always be adequately supplied with
ammunition if the best and most eff
fective work is to be done.
And Uncle Sam is straining every
nerve to see that this is accomplish
ed. Millions of dollars have been eX-
pended in Quitting plants for the
manufacture of munitions. Millions
of dollars more are being expended in
the building of ships to rush this am
munition across the ocean. And am
munition itself is tremendously eX-
pensive.
Without money to meet every de-
mand' Uncle Sam cannot meet this
need.
And the people, must furnish the
money. There is no getting around it
Upon us directly is the responsible
ity for moving the munitions to where
they will do the most good. The Yanks
are doing their part at the front. They
are holding up their end of the fight
