When you go to the store nowadays
to buy cloth or shoes or q bed or a
plow or an automobile tire. you should
not be surprised or disappointed II
you do not find as great variety to
choose from as in the past. The con-
servation division of the war industries
board is responsible for this cordi.
ton.
This division has reduced already
the number of sizes of automobile
tires from 2S7 to 33 and more are to
be cut from time to time. Over 1000
sizes and types of plows and tillage
implements that can be spared with
out hardship to the farmers have been
eliminated in accordance with the
plans worked out by the conservation
division.
This means that the manufacturers
will be able to secure economy in pro-
duction and the amount of materials
and capital tied up in the manufac-
turers' and dealers stocks throughout
the country viii be greatly reduced.
This program of elimination, moreover,
is making it possible for the steel mills
to turn out their product more rapid
ly and thus the production of steel for
ships and munitions is speeding up.
There will be only 80 styles of metal
beds made hereafter. There will be
only 80 shades of house paint. only 10
kinds of architectural varnish, only
one-fourth as many sizes and kinds Of
stoves and furnaces. Similar plans
are being worked out for every indus
try. These plans are all based on
the need of conservation to help sup
ply the men who are in the trenches
and the war industries board expects
the cooperation of merchants and the
public generally in accepting these re-
ductions in variety. The conservation
division says we surely can get along
| during the war without all the frills
that we have INDUCED in during peace
times. The purpose of all these plans
is to help win the war.
The occupation in which Mexican Ia
| bOrers may engage after being admit
| ted to the United States under the spe-
cial provisions temporarily modifying
the head tax, literacy test and con-
tract labor provision have been extend
ed by Secretary Of Labor Wilson.
The first order permitted Mexican
laborers coming to this country to en-
gage in agricultural pursuits, railroad
maintenance of way and Ignite coal
mining. To this list has been added
mining of all kinds and comomn labor
work in connection with public con-
struction in Texas, New Mexico, Ar
izona and southern California.
To facilitate the admission of Mexi-
can laborers they will be permitted to
enter the United States at all ports Of
entry along the Gulf of Mexico and
on the Atlantic coast as far north as
Charleston, S. c.. in addition to the en-.
try ports along the Mexican border.
Encouraging reports are being re-
ceived from the border states as to the
effect the influx of Mexican labor is
having in alleviating local labor short.
age. The demand and supply for farm
hands is about balanced, is the report,
and any shortage of labor heretofore
existing has been relieved. Many Of
these new immigrants are cutting cot
ton in the Southwestern states.

The Military Dispatch Riders or
ganization has been developed by the
American expeditionary forces in
France as an additional method for
transmitting communications. 1t is
picturesque, and has served to knit the
army more closely together by the act
ual physical transmission of official or
ders and communications.
The riders, successors to the old type
of army couriers and brothers in spirit
of the pony express riders of the West
ern plains, are intrusted with the work
of keeping the corps in touch with
the divisions, the divisions with the
brigade, and the brigade with the regi-
ment for detailed orders, letters and
important packages of papers that can
not be transmitted promptly and safe
ly in other ways.
Mounted on motorcycles and burden
ed with only a pouch or knapsack in
which the papers are carried, the mil
itary riders cover distances of 100
miles in three hours over the smooth

carefully for his expertness in driving
motorcycle, his ability to repair his
machine under all conditions and his
coolheadedness and resourcefulness in
emergencies, as his route may take
him over shell-swept roads and the
darkness of night may bring him near
the enemy positions. The messages
he carries must be delivered, and dis
tance, weather conditions, shellfire or
enemy raids must not stay him in the
| completion of his scheduled rounds.
Many of the riders work in pairs,
so that when route is arranged be-
two towns at distance of $50 miles
or threabous. quarters can be estab-
lished for both at each town and each
| rider alternates in occupying the
quarters that the daily schedule may
be maintained. A complete network;
of dispatch riders covers the entire
military organization of the American
expeditionary forces. and is at high
point in its motorization. 1t is strict.
ly product of American readiness
and quickness in adopting all means
that will help the army to act as
fast as it thinks.

OUR WOMEN WORKERS.

A woman's division has been established by the
War Labor Board. Many problems with which
the board has had to deal concerning women en-
ployes who are rapidly taking the place OF men
workers who are going into the training camps
and trenches.
Joint Chairman Walsh and Taft feel that these
problems should be handled for the board by
women There are to be in the future women ex-
amners This work is headed by Miss Obenauer
who was formerly with the U. S. Bureau OF Labor
Statistics and who is one Of the best known labor
investigators in the United States.
There are also to be field investigators for
women workers.
These Investigators and field representatives are
to make impartial Investigations at industrial
plants where any torube is reported. They are
to discover what is the cause of the controversy,
to meet with both sides to look into health condi-
tions and wage conditions among women workers
and to report back to the War Labor Board with
recommendations. ."ru1

RESPECTFULLY REFERRED TO MIR. LANCER

The Tribune is indebted to State Auditor Karl
Kositzky for the following editorial from the Nj
obrara (Neb.) Tribune. 1t is written by II. L.
Marshall publisher of The Tribune, who was
class-mate of the North Dakota state auditor, and
it is particularly interesting in view of Attorney
General Langer's recent correspondence with
Superintendent Riley of Cass county, in which the
chief law enforcement officer of the state said
that the North Dakota Council of Defense had
never prohibited the teaching of German in the
public schools of North Dakota and that such
ban on this alien enemy tongue had never been
seriously considered by the council of defense:
1T appears that in some parts of the county
little heed is being paid to the request that the
language of the kaiser be left unspoken. When
one stops to consider all the anguish that has been
brought to the world because of the greed Of
that Prussian blue beard and then considers all
the blessings and opportunities that have been
freely given and taken by persons of foreign BIRTH
it seems that ones patience must surely give way
when people bodily refuse to heed the request of
those in authority to speak nothing but the Amer
lean language. and right here it might be said
that it would make it much easier to do this if
those who speak Swedish, Danish, Norwegian,
and Bohemian would speak the U. S. language.
People today, whose loyalty is unquestioned, are
making it hard for us to establish our language
as the only language simply because they insist
on speaking foreign language. It is matter
that one does not care to harp on continually and
people are afraid to ask you to cease speaking the
languages for fear of breaking friendships that
were formed years ago, but you are not 100 per
cent loyal if you do not help. The County Council
of Defense has asked the different villages to pass
ordinances prohibiting the use of the German
language within the city limits. The matter was
presented to the boards personally and if it is not
an ordinance it will no doubt soon be. Let's heed
the Councils request and speak the U. S. language.
It spells unity and unity means strength, and
strength will win the war and build for US and our
children an enduring peace.-Niobrara Tribune.
