Blank oaths of office are be- ing sent to the members of the various County Councils of De- fense, the state now being thoroughly organized. The members pledge themselves to "be faithful and active in the performance of their duty, to be loyal and patriotic to their counties, state and nation, and to support their efforts to bring the great world war to vic- torious conclusion for America and her allies"
 Notwithstanding the draft and the National Guard, the U. s. Army Recruiting office, with headquarters in Little Rock, and stations throughout the state, continue to secure a large number of desirable men for the Regular Army. Considerable interest is ex- pressed in the proposed in crease of the maximum age of enlistment, as that will greatly increase the number of men who volunteer with the pros pect of early action.

RUMANlANS READY TO
TAKE UP ARMS AGAIN

Paris (by mail)-There is a steadily
growing belief in Rumania hat IL the
German domination and oppression
continued, there may be an uprising
among the people, particularly If the
food and clothing famine is not re-
lieved. There are many who feel, says
a prominent Rumanian who has Just
returned here from Jassy, that 1t may
not be impossible that the Rumanian
army will again take up arms against
said he, is the stronger since the re-
cent decisive victories Of the allies on
the western front.
Already there is grave unrest among
the peasants, who are forced by the
German agents to work long and labor
iously in farm and factory, with scarce
ly sufficient wages to buy their daily
bread. The Germans are thoroughly
disliked by all from the royal family
down to the humblest peasant.
The belief that the Rumanian army
may fight again prevails not only
among the people, but in military cir
cles. Officers are confident that, with
Americas legions now participating in
the struggle on the western front and
their number steadily Increasing, the
central powers will be compelled to d.
vert all their troops from other fronts
to the field Of operations in France in
order to check the fast moving allies.
This would be an opportune moment,
these observers believe, for Rumania to
throw off the yoke Of Germany and re-
establish its army in the field as an
aid Of the allies.
