GETTING BACK TO NATURAL
RESULTS.
(By R. c. Jones.l

One of the big tasks at Washing
ton is to prevent disruption among
the institutions that have been or
ganized on war basis Secretary
Baker has taken up with college ON
cials associated with the government
in training camp and educational pur-
suits the necessity Of turning colleg-
es back to their regular pursuits as
quickly as possible. It may be that
the training work will continue long
or at some colleges than others, while
the readjustments are being made.
The future of various army divisions
win furnish problems for the officials
for long time to come. Just how
fast the environments will be emptied
cannot be definitely foretold at this
time. A great resumption of private
construction and manufacturing ls at
hand and thousands of skilled labor
ers will be needed in all parts of the
country for this work. Of course
there il need for great army to fin
ish the work In Europe. but IL ia an
ticipated that a considerable part of
the men overseas will not be In any
great hurry to return home. There
fore it seems reasonable to suppose
that q system will be worked out
which will permit of the boys elect
ing as to whether they shall return
to the United States at once or re-
main in Europe during the coming
months. While it is a little prema-
ture to predict Just exactly what will
be done with the men in environments,
still 1t is clear that the administra-
ton will move carefully but as speed
lily as possible in the matter of re-
leasing the boys from service In order
that industrial disturbances may not
ensue, while at the same time there is
evident anxiety to release the men in
the service just as rapidly as 1t can
be done. To what extent soldiers will
be sent abroad to relieve those who
have served in battles does not appear
to have been determined on with any
definiteness.

The war Industries board and the
council Of national defense began lift
ing the lid Immediately upon the
signing of the armistice and it is the
expectation to lead up gradually to a
return TO something like pre-war con-
ditions. ohicials feel that too sud-
den change might result In a severe
shortage of materials in certain d.
rections. and would disturb labor and
transportation facilities; and there
fore these dangers will be avoided by
Official restrictions. However, 1t is
certain that there is sufficient steel
and other supplies on hand, which
will never be turned into munitions
and war commodities. to serve the sit
uation confronting the country, If a
program for a gradual development
of the less essential manufactures
is adhered to by the government. The
Fuel Administration did one of the
few popular things in connection with
its existence by making an early an
nouncement of an order removing
many Of its restrictions. Limitations
and restrictions upon forty-two diff
eerent activities were modified in an
initial order by the War Industries
Board. Thus renewed activity fol-
| lows in the manufacturing of agri-
cultural implements including trac-
tors, and in road machinery. stoves
and heaters Of all kinds, household
utensils, building materials, refrig-
orators, sewing machines, baby car
riages, builders hardware. bicycles,
sporting goods, passenger automo-
biles, cash registers, etc. The Prior
tiles Division of the War Industries
Board announces that 1t will assist
industries in procuring materials,
fuel, transportation mad labor. but
that precedence will be given to
stimulate and increase the production
of cargo ships and to supply the re-
quirements Of the army and navy as
we'll as to provide for the enormous
volume of food and materials that
will need to be sent abroad. Prece-
dence will also be given to activities
that will stimulate the production of
foods and feeds, of coal, of natural
gas, Of oils and its products, of tex
tile and clothing, and of minerals;

PRESIDENT SMITH HIGHLY Es.
TEEAGED BY GOV. MCCONNELL

That the late President Joseph r.

men in all walks of life Is evidenced
by the many letters which the new
presidency Of the church has received.

written by former Governor w. J.

GOVERNMENT WARNS ICE MAN.
Must Cut Natures Ice. For Coal Is Toe
Scarce for Artificial,

The ice man has received his orders
from the government, too. He has been
warned 70 cut natural ice as he has
never cut it before, for he is In great
danger OF being denied coal for the
manufacture Of artificial ice Coal and
ammonia are both scarce. but natures
ice making facilities are abundant Just
now.
The Ice man Is advertising for men
70 cut ice He offers wages from 10
TO 40 per cent higher than last year.
but the men DO not respond Altho the
secretary OF commerce and labor at
Washington insists that there is no
labor shortage, the ice man feels sure
that lot Of fellows are exceedingly
slow about re adjusting themselves
TO his job.
Most Of the work along the river Is
comparatively easy work. Pushing the
cakes Of ice along with a pole is easier
work than shovelinx sand and gravel
on a paving JOB or digging bitches for
sewers. 1t is not quite so easy as
blowing corn with a riding culrvator,
mt then there IS not much corn plow-
ing to be done in January.
The weather was too severe both
Friday and today to cut ice Workmen
employed BY the Marshall Ice Com
pany were laid off Friday when it was
found it was impossible for the men
to keep warm. The cutting will be
resumed as soon as the weather mod
crates.
