ORGANIZATION UNDER WAY

Directions for the organization eli
War Savings Societies under the Unit.
ed States treasury plan In every in.
| dustrial plant in the Ninth Federal
Reserve district have been sent to all
| county directors OF War Savings. In
| many counties the work is already
| under way. In these the county chair
men are now to complete the work
with all speed by forming War Saw.
tngs Societies In the remaining indus-
tries. M. e. Herrison. district d1{S0-
tor Of War Savings, has urged countY
chairmen in the other counties r
start forming societies ut ONCE.
A force OF specially trained orsa4-
izers Of War Savings Societies IL now
busy forming societies in the larger
cities Of the Ninth district. As soon
as that has been done these expert
enced men will be at liberty to finish
the work of organizing industries in all
other counties.
The plan under which War Savings
Societies are being formed Is simple.
A meeting is called in the plant dvr.
ing which the importance Of thrift and
investment In War Savings Stamps II
explained to all employees. Those
willing to take part, usually everyone,
are then asked to sign membership
pledge, sometimes promising to buy Z
fixed amount of stamps weekly or
merely to buy stamps. A president
OF the society IL appointed and one or
more secretaries named. The secre-
taries each have fixed number of per-
sons on whom they call each payday,
giving them an opportunity to buy
Thrift stamps or War Savings stamps.
1t Is desirable to have plenty Of
secretaries, according to Ray C. Teus-

Army of Occupation. The divisions
selected for this Army were the LIST,
End, 3rd, 4th, 32nd, and And, all of
which had acquitted themselves con-
spicuously. Later the seth and Goth
Divisions were also included.
The 4th Division began its march
from the vicinity of Boucq November
20. The route lay through Thiaucourt,
Contains, Briey, to Hayingen, Lor-
raine, in which area a halt was made
for about a week. Thence the march
was to Remich, Luxembourg, and a.
cross the Moselle into Germany, the
first units touching German soil on
the Bird of December. The march then
proceeded down the valley of the
Moselle to the Kreises of Cochem and
Adenau, in the Province of the Rhine,
with Division Headquarters at Bad
Bertrich. The march was completed
December II, 1918. In this, its area
of occupation, the units of the Diyi-
sion then engaged upon systematic
course of training.
Summary.
During the six months that elapsed
from the time the 4th Division ar
rived in Europe until the signing of
the armistice, the Division function
ed in all three of the great battles
that will always be associated with
the achievements of the American
Army in the war, viz: the Second
Battle of the Marine, the St. Mihiel
Drive, and the Meuse-Aronne Battle. |
The period of the great Allied Of |
fensive, July Is to November IL, con-

POULTRY HINTS FOR JULY
By Mr.. r. L. Smith, Extension
Poultry Specialist.

During the summer months
is the best time to get rid of the
bOarder hens. Sell them off as
soon as they stop laying. The
poor layer is the one which
Istops earliest and starts to mott,
$50 kill the early molter. A hen
will not, as rule, mott and lay
at the same time. The high re-
cord hen is the one which con-
tinues to lay right through the
summer. Her feathers viii look
ragged and worn; she will have
the appearance of having been
run through washing mach
inc. The hen that keeps a nice
looking coat of shiny, bright,
glossy feathershas been your

ing boarder too.
With all breeds which natur-
ally have yellow legs, yellow
beaks and skin, it is fairly easy
to pick your best layers by the
color. The more eggs laid the
less yellow color they have. This
color fades first from the vent,
then the beak and last the
shanks. After they have stopp-
ed laying the color comes back
in the same order in which it
disappeared.
A hen in good laying conditi-
on will have large, moist vent
showing a dilated condition and
looseness as compared with the
hard, dry puckered vent of a
non-laying hen.
The pelvic bones will be well |
syread and rather pliable. The !
distance between the pelvic
bones and end of keel or breast |
bone will be greater in a laying
hen than in a Stacker,

The 4th Division was concentrated
hrst in the Foret de Hesse near
Jouyen-Argonne, and then moved to
the Second Army area about Lucey.
While resting and in training, the
Division was a part of the Second
Army reserve. On November 4th it
was again assigned to the First Army
and started moving to the Blercourt
area November Sand started to re-
turn to that area before all units had
actually left for Blercourt. The Divi-
sion was attached to the ~ Corps,
Second Army, and the various units
were in the Bots de la Belle Oxiere
when the armistice was signed, Nov
18th. With the cessation OF hostilities
however, all units were concentrated
about Boucq and we're joined there
by the Artillery Brigade, which had
been released from the lines Nov II. 4

Prosecution of Those Re-

Arrests Believed Near
Coroner's Jury of Experts
Hears Four Theories of
How Gas Was Ignited

CHICAGO, July 22.-Only theories
as to the cause Of the explosion and
destruction by fire of the dirgible, re-
sulting in twelve deaths and injury to
twenty eight other persons yeste rday
were elected at the first session Of
the coroner's inquiry to-day. The cause
of the disaster seemed as far from dis
closure as at the moment when flame
spurted along the gas bag as it scared
above Chicago's skyscrapers before
plunging down through the roof of q
great bank, spreading fatal flames
among bookkeepers, clerks and stenog-
raphers preparing to end their days
work.
The authorities. however, apparently
were determined to place responsibility
on some one. Assistant States Attor-
ney spontaneous combustion probably
terrogation of witnesses for the state,
declared that prosecution was certain
to follow the inquiry, probably on the
grounds Of criminal negligence and
carelessness.
Four Theories Suggested
At least four theories for the start
of the fire we're heard to-day.
Pilot John Boettner, who has been
held in custody, told the states attor-
ney spontaneous combustion probably
was the cause.
w. c. Young chief of the aeronauti-
cal forces of the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company, owner of the diri-
gible, suggested burning oil from the
motor cylinders.
Lieutenant Thomas Atkinson, pur-
chasing agent for the Motor Transport
Corps, United States Army, was in
clined to believe a leaky valve was
responsible and that static electricity
caused combustion.
Montford Morrison, a member of the
coroner's jury and a technical expert,
who examined the broken motors sug-
gested that he found all exhausts open
New-York tribune., 1919-07-23
and that sparks therefrom may have
lgnited the gas bag.
Company's Men Questioned

and that sparks therefrom may have
lgnited the gas bag.
Company's Men Questioned
Assistant States Attorney Lowry
asked the chief of police to take into
custody two officials Of the local Offices
OF the Goodyear company for question
ing. Their names we're not divulged.
SeVenteen persons of the company's s
forces, most OF them mechanics, were
questioned last night and to-day and
summoned for the inquest.
Inc Arst session of the inquest
on which state and Federal officials
are waiting before taking action look
ing toward prosecution-was marked bv
the refusal of Pilot Boettner and his
chief, Mr. Young, to testify. Their re-
fusal was on the advice of counsel rep
resentlng the company.
Whlie local officials asserted respon-
slDlllty for the accident was to be fixed
on some one, no evidence DEVELOPED to
show the company had been negligent.
Inc Assistant States Attorney called
attention to a letter said to nave been
written by Mr.. Young to his assistants
urging, speed in assembling the ma
chine here.
Officer Blames Leaky Valve
Lieutenant Atkinson testified that the
Goodyear company's balloons bore an
excellent reputation in the army. The
lieutenant, who witnessed the accident
from an tomobie, said:
Ihe hydrogen escaping from a eaky
valve and mixing with the air was
probably ignlted by static electricity
slole TOR sparks from the exhaust to
ignite the bag"
The lieutenant testified that he never
had heard OF rotary engines being used
IN Girlglbl bles. Il understand this was
IN the nature of an experiment. From
the experience the pilot had had with
the blimp they apparently were work
ing all right" he added
AS to the rotary motors, however
Major Clarence Maranville, chief Of the
army aircraft force at the Akron, Ohio
field, said last night he had lent them
to the Goodyear company. He said he
understood all necessary precautions
had been taken. He also said he did
not believe static electricity had caused
the fire
Draft Flying Ordinance
While the Coroner's double Jury
composed of six business men and SIX
technical experts, were hearing the
first testimony, the Corporation Coun-
sells office was engaged in drafting an
ordinance regulating flying over the
city. 1t has been advocated that flying
over the downtown section or any con-
gested district be prohibited.
City officials, including the Councils
Aviation Commission, desire to foster
aerial advancement, but seek to nsti-
tute such regulation as will aid in pre-
venting death and injury to persons on
the ground in case of an accident in the
air.
The twelfth victim of the calamity
was Milton G. Norton, a photographed
for a morning newspaper, who died to-
day. Devotion to duty marked his last
semi-conscious movement. He was q
veteran newspaper photographer. anC

Anti Sufragists
In New Jersey Ask
For a Referendum
Tell Governor Voters Have
Always Defeated Propo-
sition and the Legislature
Should Await Election

The anti-suffragists of New Jersey
have started figh. against the ratifi-
cation Of the Federal woman suffrage
amendment. Yesterday they addressed
a letter to Governor Runyon asking
MIN to use his influence in behalf of a
statewide referendum on the question
before the Legislature acts.
On the other hand, the suffra gists
have been stirred to activity never be-
fore equalled in the history of the New
Jersey movement. A ratification COM
mittee headed by Mrs. Edward f.
Feickert, of Plainheld, has been organ
lied by the New Jersey Woman Suf-
frage Association, which has already
enlisted the support of 100000 women.
including the member rship of practical
ly every large organization of women
in the state They will hold a con-
vention soon at which plans for rati-
hcation campaign will be formed
The date for action by the State
Legislature Is not known, but it is
expected that q special session for re-
construction problems will be called
this fall.
Say State Is Anti Suffrage
The letter of the anti-sufTragists to
Governor Runyon, which is signed by
Clara Vestn, chairman Of the legisla-
tive committee, says:
"The New Jersey Association Opposed
TO Woman Suffrage is much interested
to learn your attitude on the question
of q referendum to the people of New
Jersey on the question of the ratif-
cation of the Federal suffrage amend
ment. The referendum is desired by
our association as guide to Legislators
in deciding this question in accordance
with the wishes of their coDstituents.
