SECOND SECTION
PETIT PARISIEN'S
 HAVE UNIQUE
 MARCHING SONG

Paris, Sept. 27.---(Oorrespondence of The Associated Press.)---The Say age" brigade is the name by which a certain brigade of the American ar my is known, according to Paul Gin isty, the Petit PIisien's special cor respondent who describes a visit that he has just paid it. It is composed of volunteers from Michigan and Wisconsin, who are mostly young un- iversity men. They have a march ing song, which goes:
 "The Kaiser has no chance,
 We'll shoot him in the pants!" When Ginisty saw them they were at repose after nine consecutive hard days fighting. during which they mad discarded everything but their muni- tfons and had only been able to get little food three times. When they were relieved they were worn out pn' they had rewon a wide enough stretch of ground to compensate them.
 | One of their officers told a few stories about his men. Two of them he said, had advanced so rapidly tha' they found themselves surrounded b3 the enemy. They dashed at ma chine gun. killed the gunners anc turned the quick-shooter on the en emy, one firing, the other slipping lin the bands of cartridges and st kept them at a. distance and cleared a way back to their own side.
 A doctor found one covered witl IbEood. You'll have to carry him said the doctor to the stretcher bear CTS.
 An! to the depot for that!" replie' the soldier, q am not so tender, jus guide me!'
 "In this brigade are many youni
 men of German descent" write Ginisty "Their octavism has disap
 peared, they are now pure American
 thinking and acting as Americans. :
 few days ago bit of reconnaissance
 work was wanted which needed man prepared to take risks A vol unteer presented himself whose nam showed his German origin:
 "+So much the better he said wit a smile. if the Boches fire upon Boche.'"

 quired."

group.
 We have never been in sympathy with the military dynasty of Ger many. We have always abhorred mill itarism. We nave never subscribed to the doctrine that might makes right" If the German government should ever have entertained the slightest thought of enticing Ameri- cans of German ancestry to its side in the war it so ruthlessly forced on our country 1t should be brought to the speedy realization of the prepos- terousness of such a scheme.
 "The principles of your organiza- tion harmonize with our views, and it is because the government of the United States regards the organiza- tion, Friends of German Democracy as a means to enlist moral force against the autocratic government of Germany that we wish to support the movement by joiHHng the local | branch and hope it will be successful in further increasing its membership.
 we also believe in the thorough Americanization of our people and we trust that this organization will in itself contribute something toward local and national unification.
 'In conclusion we wish to say we regard the organization as a war measure which will dissolve when its | object has been accomplished" The American Friends of German | Democracy aim to aid the people ot | Germany to establish a government responsible to the people. They pur- pose to lead men and women of Ger. man origin to a better understanding | of the aims of America and its al lies, and to cooperate with all other organizations whose purpose it is rc
 unify all elements of our population
 into a united body of citizens who
 know no other fatherland thar America.
 This purpose is to be accomplish ed:-
 By spreading the ideals O. American Democracy.
 | By encouraging the democratit
 and oppositional elements in Ger I many.
 3-By organizing all those sympa
 thizing with this aim in America in ] to so strong a body that the society efforts will be backed by the pow. erfuI influence of large numbers. , 4-By making the position o Americans of German origin toward
 the war and the allies of the United States so clear that not only the peo , pie of Germany will be informed a
 to the strength and determination o this united America, but that also tn

attitude of patriotic Americans of German origin will no longer be mis- understood or questioned.
 Act at once. Let us all stand to- gether so that our voice will carry a message which must be heard. Join our society Distribute our literature. You have never been called upon for a duty more opportune, more sacred or more important. Act at once in the name rr democracy and liberty.

HORSES VALUABLE IN VIENNA

Zurich, Sept. 7.-Horse-stealing in Vienna has increased to such an ex- tent. that several firms have been forced to give up business. A good wagon team is now worth from $5,- 900 to $6,250. Some firms have lost as many as a dozen horses, as well as wagons, and thefts continue daily in the streets. The stolen horses are usually sold to slaughter houses.
 A recent order forbids the pub1ica- tion of market prices of horses for slaughter, but the last reports priced them at $1,000 to $1,500 each.
 The Germans will no doubt be able as they claim to keep warm next win ter. as the allies propose to give them plenty of running exercise.

VIENNA DEATH RATE HIGH.

Zurich, Sept. 27.-Underfeeding, ex- haustion, intestinal disorders, tuber- culosis are chiefly responsible for an increase in the Vienna death rate, of 2S to 29 per cent. according to the municipal authorities.

COMMON LABOR
BEGINS TODAY
u. S. Assumes Labor Control
Through Public Service Re-
serves Over Country.

Beginning Thursday, unskilled la
Dor in the United States practically
will be under Federal control through
operation of the national recruiting
program OF the war labor policies
board.
Demands for war work will be
drawn upon if need be for such part
of their forces as may be required to
meet any deficiency of labor in lines
essential to the governments plans.
Competitive bidding for workers by
advanced wage schedules is prohibit
ed, and labor poaching" wherein eff
fort is made to entice men from one
war industry to another, will be under
ban. The United States employment
service will assume the task of sup
plying workers to plants engaged in
war materal production. and all prob
lens of sufficient labor for this pur
pose will be handled. through the de-
partment
Included in the program is defini-
tion of quotas of unskilled labor need
ed in each community and transfer
Of men necessary to give each district
it's allotment. StandardiZa ton of
wages is another important phase of
the situation which will be adjusted
by the parent board in Washington.
Community Boards Control
Administration of the program will
be intrusted to community boa rds up
on which employer and employe shall
have equal representation. with a rep
resentative of the United States en-
ployment service to act as chairman.
State directors of labor will have i'm
mediate jurisdiction on all matter of
controversy with a final appeal per
mitted to the war labor policies board
at Washington.
The United States Public Service
Reserve is the title of the division of
the war labor policies board in charge
Of the employment service. Hays Bus
kirk, assistant director for Indiana of
the reserve, yesterday announced the
following appointments Of organizers
who will be directors in the five zones,

rectly to the government or to- some

ing, or as part of, products to be de-
livered to the government is not con-
sidered war work" .-'' -~
Quotas are to be established to pro-
tect any state or community from be-
ing drained unfairly, and to insure a
fair contribution to the needs Of war
work from all parts Of the country.
The employment services will not draw
from any community above its allotted
quota. The total demand will first be
apportioned among states and each
state will be su5divided among COM
munities.
Eventually the program will be ex-
tended to include women, and in con-
nection with this anticipated activity
the division of women in industry of
the Department of Labor is now max
ing exhaustive investigation into the
status of women workers. In Indian
apolis and other large cities a Fed
eral employment office for women is
maintained. and applicants are placed
as far as possible in war work Of their
choice. The special function of the
newly established division will be to
find the work best suited to this class
of labor.
In a statement issued June II, 1918,
by President Wilson, in which he calls
upon employers and workers alike to
work in cooperation with the war
labor policies board, is the following
definition of need for the supervision
and its purpose:
"Such a condition is unfair alike to
employer and employe, but most of all
to the nation itself, whose existence is
threatened by any decrease in its pro-
ductive power. 1t is obvious that this
situation can be clarified and equal
lied by central agency-the United
States employment service of the De
partment of Labor, with the counsel
of the war labor policies board as the
voice of all the industrial agencies of
the government. Such a central agency
must have sole direction of all recruit
ing OF civilian workers in war work;
and, in taking over this great respon-
sibility. must at the same time have
power to assure to essential industry
an adequate supplyof labor, even to
the extent of withdrawing workers
for nonessential production. 1t must
also protect labor from appeals made !
to it under the plea Of patriotism, and
assure it that when it is asked to vol
unteer In some priority industry, the
need Is real.
There has been much confusion as
to essential products. There has been
ignorance Of conditions men have
gone hundreds of miles in search of
job and wages which they might have
found at their doors. Employers hold
ing government contracts of the high
est Importance have competed for
workers with holders of similar con-
tracts, and even with the government
itself, and have conducted expensive |
campaigns for recruiting labor in Sec |
tions where the supply of labor was
already exhausted. California draws
it's unskilled labor from as far east as
Buffalo and New York from as far
west as the Mississippi Thus labor |
has been induced to move fruitlessly I
from one place to another congesting !
the railways and losing both time and |
money"

SOMETHING FOR YOU TO SER
lOCSLE CONSIDER AND
PON ID ER OWE X

IF THESE THINGS BE TRUE
then the farm renter or encumbered
owner of high priced land has no fur
, ther excuse for not owning a home
where social conditions are ideal and
where one grain crop pays for every
acre of the land on which it grows.
| And where, while they are raising
these crops many of the farmers have
an income of $500 to Sl25.OO per
month from the sale of cream from 8
to Is cows
In Southeastern Wyoming, only lis
miles west of Julesburg, is a terri
tory comprising half million acres
known as the Golden Prairie Dis
| trict. The prairies are yielding abun-
dant returns of winter and spring
wheat. oats, corn, flax and forage
+. crops; yielding returns in dollars, acre
per acre, equal to the best farms in the
most noted agricultural sections of
Iowa, Illinois or any other of the Mis-
sissippi valley states This is a
strong statement" you exclaim. We
admit that it does sound strong to the
man who has not investigated, but the
crops are here to prove it. Sixty per
cent of the farmers there are from
Iowa. And many of them are buying
land as fast as they can while it il
yet cheap. Is this not good evidence
, that this is productive country
a good country to "tie-to"-to live
in?
When the Iowa farmer, who is liv-
ing there backs up his judgment by
buying more land as fast as he can,
is there any doubht in your mind as
to the truth of these statements.
Now to you who are ambitious and
are striving with all your strength and
ability to secure an independence and
home of your own, but are handi-
capped by heavy encumbrance or
having to rent, we invite you to go
with us and investigate this Golden
Prairie District of southeastern Wyo-
ming and we will prove to you, by gl,
ing you an opportunity to see the
country. its bountiful crops and talk
with the people who live here, that
here is an opportunity to secure
home and independence in this favor
ed district. where you can yet buy
good laying and productive land from
2 to 10 miles on either side of the U.
