He estimated that in the first year of the war. the army would takt only about three per cent of the coun. ] trys workers, less than the number un. employed under normal conditions. The secretary will announce probably tomorrow. an advisory committee to as- sist him in handling mob ilization prob iems' including one representative of the general public; two of labor; two of commerce and industry and one econom- ist or socialist
 Most of the anxiety in this country regarding the labor question has been reflex of Great Britain's experiences in the war" MT. Wilson said. "Of 20. WV'ooo persons engaged in gainful occu- patlons in England, 100000 were taken Tor the army, leaving the labor supply 20 per cent short.
 This necessitated withdrawal from the army of skilled workmen in order to maintain the industrial life at home

UNIVERSITY TO

 1918 ATTENDANCE
Special to The Graphic.

Fayetteville, Ark, Sept. 9.--From sity of Arkansas will in the coming sessions have the largest attendance of students in all it's history.
 There will be 300 men in the voca- tional section of the Students Army Training Corps. The University has agreed to take 500 men in the regular college section of the Corps. The mum. Der of applications will probably be in excess of that number, but the Uni versity is not prepared to handle them. It is expected that the women students and the men not enrolled in the s. A. T. c. will number 400 or more, making total enrolment of at least 1900 students.
 President John c. Futrell and Reg istrar A. M. Harding have returned from Ft. Sheridan, H., where they secured full details as to the work of the s. A. T. c. The work of construct , ing the necessary barracks and other buildings is under way. Certain changes in the schedule of courses of study open to members of the s. A. T. c., are now being made. The stud ent's day will probably be divided up about as follows:
 7:30 to 9:3O, military work; 9:3O to 12:30, studp and recitation; 12:3O to 1880, dinner; 80 to 4:3O, study and recitation; 400 to 5:30, athletics and recreation; 6:O0 to 7:30, supper; 733 to 9:30, supervised study; 10:0O o'clock taps.

 Boston, Sept. 9.-The Boston Am ericans got the big edge in the worlds series by beating the Chica go Nationals in a mad scramble for the fourth game today by score of 5 to ?.
 This gives the Red Sox a lead of to l in the series and it is neces- sary for them to win only one more game to make them the war time base ball champions of the world.

 Owens called the next one a strike, too, while the burlX Babe scratched around the box in disgust.
 Then he dug himself in at the plate and with the count three and two waited to see if Tyler dared to send one over.
 Tyler dared and Ruth swung into the ball savagely and the gleaming sphere scared in a steadily upward climb for the right centerfield.
 It was hard drive to judge.
