Col. Woods Gives
9 Reasons Fighters
Should Get Jobs
They Are Better Men Than
When They Went to War
and Will Give Employers
More Efficient Service

WASHINGTON, July ~. Colonel Ar
thur Woods, of the War Department.,
who is endcavornS. to correlatc all
the existing agencies to find employ
ment for the eX-scrvicc man, advances
nine reasons Why an employer should
give preference TO an ex-service man.
The present lull in our industries
was caused by the ~eadiustmert pre-
saying the period Of reconstruction
which our country IS now facing be
says. "Our Industries, once shaped
back to a peace basis. will be called
upon to produce in greater qu&ntitles
than it ever did. kvery machine VIII
have TO be run to its full capacity to
help restore the world 20 IA peace basis.
Our industrial army viii have to be
greater than our war army was TO help
secure the peace which VIC helped
west from war mad enemy
Roughly speaking, there arc ahcrt
2O,O00.0O0 wage earners i'm the Unite.
States. and out of this number 1900
-onc-tifth- were modified or the
different branches Of our army.
This army is now being demobil-
ized at the rate of 10 coo a day, AID
the soldier must be reabsorbed by
cur different industries.
81. Because he is an cx-soldier. He
have to be loyal 20 him during inc
peace times he has wor for US.
80 Because he is physically a bet
ter man. Life in the army has hard
ened his muscles and gwen them en-
durance.
80. Because he is a 100 per cent man
and he will give you 100 per cent SER
vice. Efficiency will be the create st
asset in our coming industrial life.
,, |. L
20 work at q 100 per cent capacity.
Two hundred million days a year are
lost to our industries through sickness
alone. If your factory is to run to its
full capacity you must employ healthy
workers. The returning soldiers are
tne cream of the health of our nation.
81. Because many OF the skilled men
that entered our army were put to
work, each at his particular trade, and
have developed their skill to the high
est efficiency.
20. Because the ex-scrvice man has
learned to obey. And because to obey
hin he will perform his work to the
best OF his ability without grumbling.
IS. Because he is mentally a better
man. No man could have gone through
what our doughboys went through with
cut becoming u better man. Rene be T
that they have faced death. The long
marches have taken out the shiftless-
ness of youth. Every ex-service man is
steady man.
~: Because you must help the. ex-
service man restore himself financially
He must not be allowed to feel that you
are not doing unto him as he did unto
you. Practically each one of them has
TO start life anew, financially.
IS. Because work for all ex-soldiers
means industrial peace to our country
80. Because every ex-service man is
man, full sized, red blooded, two
listed man. real American"

Frecnh Goods Coming Back
Old Time Reveals in Recent
Imports, Says Buyer

French manufacturers, according to
Alfred Fantl, New York resident
buyer, have succeeded not only in
equalling their old-time quality, but
in many cases actually have sur
passed it.
Luxurious fabrics, perfumes, laces,
etc." said Mr.. Fantl yesterday, (which
we have bought in France for our
clients here have exceeded oud ex-
pectations."
Within the last few days several
steamers arriving in New York have
brought good sized shipments of
French merchandise destined for Mr.
Fantls clients. The shipments includ-
ed perfumes, blouses, sweaters infants
wear, laces, founces, beads, bags, nov
city neckwear, etc. Production of
French merchandise and shipments are
increasing constantly, he said. Arti-
cles of French origin are expected to
be in large demand among the consum-
ing public, with it's purchasing power
increased by high wages.

Awarded $4,000
In Unique Legal
Fight Over Timber
Son of Member Of Company
Brings Suit Against His
Fathers Associate: Thou
sands of Letters in Case

DETROIT, Mich, July 10 A unique
legal battle that spanned number of
years ended when Samuel A. Wilson
was awarded $4,000 against Chester
G.. White and others. The suit in
volved more than S2,OOO,OOO. the sale
price of large tracts of Alabama tim
berlands purchased by seven Michigan
men in 1888, and of lands purchased
individually by w. II. Wilson, father
of Samuel A. Wilson. White, defendant
in the suit just closed, is the only
man of the original seven purchasers
still living.
Wilson sued to recover for his one
ninth share Of the proceeds Of the sale
Of the original tracts and the value
of his 2,153 acres, purchased by his
father as an individual, and for $50 900
charged against his father by the syn
dictate of original purchasers.
The elder Wilson, in the panic of
the '9o's. made his individual pur-
chases at s. and Sc an acre, it was
declared. The property increased in
value to more than $40 an acre and
the group claimed it, declaring an in
dividual member of the syndicate had
no right to buy land without first Of
fering it to the company. Wilson
contendcd that this had been done,
and the court upheld his contention.
The elder Wilson included his prop
critics with those of the syndicate when
a sale was made to lumber company
for s2,OO6,25O, later charging, it was
alleged, that other members planned to
deprive him of his share in the pro-
ceeds. Suit was then brought, but the
father died and the son benefited from
the award
The sale price was tied up by an in
junction from 1912 until announcement
of the court decision a few days ago,
excepting for small division made on
agreement by counsel. Nearly all wit
nesses with close knowledge of the
facts are dead and during the trial
more than 10000 letters were offered
in evidence The complete testimony
made 10000 typewriter pages. Four
hundred dispositions were introduced.
There we're more than $50 witnesses
in the Sout!: whose dispositions covered
1900 pages. More than 800 law books
we're used and ] 200 deeds were in EVIL
dencc. 4 safe, two trunks and four
suitcases were used in the courtroom
to hold the legal papers.
The oral argument in the suit took
eighteen hours to deliver and covered
600 pages of transcript, while the de-
cision covered cighty-six typewriter
pages.
The original purchase Of land was
45, 700 acres.

the supply available in the leading
markets of this country, New York
and Boston. The price Of eight-ounce
burlap advanced Il cent a yard within
the past few days. the present quota
ton being IL cents. For 10h-ounce

this grade will work upward. 1t is
stated that it is difficult to get freight
space for shipments from Calcutta to

change rates for which are high. Some
of the importers express the opinion
that the East Indians are as prone as

Considerable quantities of woollen

ing to leading member of the trade
yesterday.
"By October" he said "manufact-
urers will find that they have sold SUI
nclent garments to use up all the
on hand. They will have small onan-
titles of other cloths left and it will
not pay them to try to sell garments
to use up this material Owing to the
uncertainty Of the market for heavy
weight goods next year they will be
inclined to sell their holdings of these
left over fabrics rather than carry
them over into next year"
