All Branches of War
Industries Tagging Be-
Cause of Lack of Men

Present indications are that con-
gress will soon take action to change
the draft age from FL to 81, years, so
that the draft will include all men
between the ages of 18 and 45 years.
Strong pressure has been brought to
hear on congress for an increase in
ne draft age limits, and the general
belief among men in close touch with
the situation is that speedy action
will be taken in the matter.
War industries in all parts of the
country are tagging because of a
shortage of labor. Various branches
of the United States Army, particul-
arly the Engineers and Signal Corps,
are in need of skilled mechanics and
artisans of all kinds. Then "Work or
Fight" law is expected to relieve the
situation somewhat, but it is doubtful
If it will bring enough men into the
ARMY and into the hundreds of gov
eminent workshops to max earmy Of
fcers change their plans. Secretary
Of War Baker, and Provost Marshal
General Crowder are both emphatical-
w in favor of the change, and have
gone SO far with their plan that a bill
already is practically ready for IN
PRODUCTION in the House.
l Voluntary enlistments in the Army
have taken a marked slump since the
first of June, and strenuous efforts
viii be necessary in Minnesota during
the next week if the state is to main
tain its present position in relation to
the cher recruiting districts IN the
country. The Minnesota District has
been the banner district for the past
three months, and Major John D.
Yost, Recruiting officer for the dis
trict, does not want to see this state
supplanted by another. !.
Single men within the age limits OF
the proposed new draft regulation are
urged to gel in touch with their near
est Army Recruiting office and get
+ placed before the new order is in
force. All branches of the service are
omen at the present time and afford
excellent opportunities for advance
ment.

"Save Waste Paper but DONE
Waste Paper" is slogan which the
war Industries board earnestly re.
quests every business house, publish

Many will be surprised to earn what
serious handicap the wasting of
paper placed on the makers of new
poison gas which our army chemists
developed. An essential element in
this gas is sulphur, of which there
is only limited supply in the United
States, and authorities declare that
enough will not be available for gas
making if we thoughtlessly waste pa

Another reason for economy is that

Official Gazettes.

Nothing illustrates so well the
quasi-official character of the news
papers these days as the announce
ment by the health authorities after
consultation with the judges and
lawyers that health notices published
in the newspapers shall be regarded
as official. A person who fails to
heed such regulations on the ground
that he saw notice of them only in
the newsps pars has no defense.
It has been this kind of public
service which the newspapers have
been performing for generation on
top of generation, though never so
generally as since America entered
the war Many food and fuel and
other govern mental announcements
reach the public through the news
papers and with the same force and
character as though they bore the
great seal of authority.
1t is So generally admitted news
papers are essential that to repeat
1T seems like waste of words. IF
the public could dispense with the
public press in peace times (and Of
course it could not), certainly it
would be helpless without it il such
critical times as these.
Probably the records reveal not
single case where newspapers have
refused their facilities to dissemina-
ton of information when wholly in
the public interest. Newspapers
give and give space without limit
and ask no questions when the pub
lie welfare is the object sought.
These Journals have always been re-
garded as sources of news informa
ton, but now and for a long time
they assume the position of official
gazettes."
There are many and diversified
options as to the function of 4 news
paper. Perhaps each editor has his
own peculiar view, making his de-
auctions from the situation IS =

which would be only natural F. ".

1T 1.-THE newspaper) belongs to

muHity in which it is published, to
the territory in which it circulates

With a newspaper experience of
nearly forty years l have learned
one thing, that newspaper to sue
coed must be held by its publisher
as sacred trust. It has a power
for good that can only be main
tanned and should be only exercised
by standing for what is constructive
and not destructive. To be con-
structive for the community news
paper must often tear down the
grafters in high places, expose the
schemes of the few for the exploita-
ton of the many, and fight the bigo-
