The senate performed a graceful and
gracious act when it confirmed the
nomination of John ]. Pershing to the
permanent rank OF general In open
session by rising vote. But congress
might also remember that William S.
Sims Is still reduced to the rank Of
rear admiral for his splendid services
in the war and that William s. Ben

porary, while he remains chief Of OPP

In making the estimate he referred to

that with a general average condition

Is more difficult than In any other state
and $1,000 posters have been distributed
among government buildings through
out the nation. While 500 letters a day
are received here from prospective
workers, Barkman said many who write
will not come, and that most careful
distribution will be necessary to pre-
vent q labor shortage.
Wheat cutting usually starts In the
