GET THE SAFETY FIRST HABIT

Raleigh, Aug. 23.-With the adj
vent of the harvesting season when
farmers all through North Carolina
gather their grain and other crops
into their barns in preparation for
its use fo feed and food purposes, so
tremendously important in these war
times, the farmers are being espec-
tally warned by Insurance Commits
sioner James R. Young, fire marshal
for the State, against storing any
gasoline or other articles about the
barn that might start fire and not to
use the barn as garage for an
automobile. He urges that the risk
and the danger of fire is too great.
He would have the farmers be es-
pecially careful about the conditions
about the barns and other premises.
He would have the farmers and all
his helpers on every farm in the
State imbibe the Fire Prevention and
Safety First habit as giving assur-
ance of greatest immunity from
fires that exact all too great toll
of farm products and farm equip
ment.

their initial fight in the House late
yesterday and the way was paved
for the passage of the bill by the
House today. In the Senate dispos-
al of minor amendments caused
leaders to hope that the measure
could be passed there also before

At the close of day of vigorous
debate the House rejected 167 to
12O, the amendment by Represen-
tative Mckenzie, of Illinois, written
into the bill by the Military Com
mittee directing separate classifica-
tion and delayed call of youths from
1S to 20. Amendments by Repre-
sentatives Johnson, of Washington,
and Blackman, of Alabama, to fix
the draft age minimum at 19 to Il
years respectively, also were defeat
ed
Dramatic touches were given the
debate in the House by Representa-
tive Tilson, of Connecticut, who call
ed amid cheers upon four marines
in the galleries to stand in evidence
that youths of IS make excellent
soldiers. This was after Represen-
tative Johnson, of Washington, had
presented a small 18-year old page
in soldier coat and trench helmet tC
support his claim that 18-year-olds
are mere children. Olney, of Mas

of the House members during the
