lized the n1practicability of discharg- ins an army of between three and four million men under a scheme based primarily either upon individ- Ual applications for discharge or upon industrial demands by classes, yet the need of some elasticity in tho scheme of demobilization was always recognized.
 Immediately after the signing of the armistice. there were found a few industrial needs that had to be satisfied imm ediately for the good of the entire country. and the discharge of certain industrial workers who were in the camps was ordered ac- cordingly.
 This included only three classes Of industrial occupation: Anthracite coal miners, because an anthracite coal famine was feared, which might have caused great suffering to 8. large civilian population during the winter: railroad employees, because the de- mobilization Of the army put a con- tinued strain on the railroads which had to be met by discharge of rail- road employees in this country; and third, railroad mail clerks
 Troops Widely Scattered. Gen. March pointed out that one of the complicating factors In demobili- zatlon was the fact that units, espe- cia.lly those which had seen service had but little of their original local character left, because of reorganiza- ton and the use of replacements. Units thinned by service were filled with new men drawn from other sec tons in most eases. Gen. March said T ,Fof, have done otherwise, because that would require the states whose sol diers have suffered the heaviest loss es to furnish an excessive number of replacements.
 The process of discharging men from the service is by no means a simple operation" he continued. Tn order clearly and unnistakably to set tie the discharged soldiers status and account with justice to him and to the government, complete papers and records of various kinds must be made out in detail. Every man to be discharged must be given a thorough physical examination by a board of skilled medical examiners consisting of specialists,

land complete protection of both the interests of the government and or the soldier is effected by conducting all physical examinations prior to the ulS-

 An officer is required to make a certificate and the enlisted man to sign a witnessed statement, regarding his physical condition. In the event that a claim is made against the goV- crnment later on, these records are aVaila ble for reference and enable the deciding authority to adjudicate the question with justice to all concerned. The physical examination, therefore, requires that the board include in it's membership experts ill all of the medica4 Spccialties to insure that the records will be accurate and just.

March wrote, first, the resumption, industrial life of this country, and second, replacement therein of indi- viduals in tho military forces and in occupations which ended upon the cessation of hostilities.
 The war department gave serious consideration to the plan of making the order of discharge depend on the ayaila bility of industrial positions to which the individual soldiers might return, IS opposed to the plan of disbanding complete organizations in the order of their availability for dis charge.
 Tho former plan was deemed i'm pra cticable. It would have involved the processes of appraising the case of each soldier as a separate unit, endeavoring to compare his indi- vidual rights to discharge with the rights of all others, and nlarshaling the priorities accordingly. Even if the likelihood of obtaining employ
 ment had been considered by classes, such as farmers metal workers, mu-
 nicipal employees, etc., it would have
 been necessary to consider further
 the relative demand for each class
 in each separate section.
 "Thc preliminary investigation re- quired for an equita ble determination , of such a schedule, if practicable at all would have delayed all dem O. bilization beyond reason. And to cut a cross section of industrial or agricultural class discharges across i all military organizations would have destroyed at tho outset the integrity and efficiency of every unit to the 1 confusion of orderly procedure and ] the rctardation of the whole demo 1 bilization program,

HIGH COST OF MEMS CLOTHES,
MAY BE HIGHER NEXT YEAR

An increase of 100 per cent. in
the cost of mems clothing was pre-
dicted for next summer by H. SIM
mons, who presided at the opening
of the American Designers Associa-
tons annual convention, in New
York City.
Some slight compensations, how
ever, are to be granted, as coats will
be longer, shoulders broader and
chests deeper. In addition to this,
Mr.. Simms said, gaudy Innings of
alice blue, orange and similar bril-
liant hues will be in vogue, while
vests will be cut lower to permit a
greater display of dazzling shirts.
He stated that no departure in the
present style of trousers would be
noticed.
Jazz styles" so called on account
of their freakish cuts, will continue
popular with the young "fappers."

strawberries used to be unless yor

MAURICE EXTOLS
AMERICAN ARMS
L. S. Soldiers Fighting at
Chateau Thierry Started
Victory, General Says.

Major-Gen. Sir Frederick Barton
Maurice, X. C. NJ. G.. G. E., lectured
last night in Carnegie Hall, explaining
many of the technical points OF the war.
He was Director of Military Operations
on the British General STAFF.
After his lecture he approached the
mooted question of "Who won the war;
I've no doubt you believe you did,"
he said. 1.-The British are certain they
did and all Frenchmen know that they
did. The Italians are convinced that
they did and even Serbia. who was first
in it. believes that she did.
"All of us have a right to think so.
No people worthy Of victory could hold
any other opinion than that their
soldiers and sailors are the best. But
we all agree that the war was won
by something higher than these, some
thing higher than any statesmen. than
any General any army and navy. 1t
was won by the powers of right over
the powers OF wrong. 1t has shattered
forever the German idea that might is
right
Gen. O'Ryan introduced Gen. Maurice
with tribute to the generosity. bravery
and chivalry Of the British. He said
that these were not only his views. but
that they are shared by every man of
the Twenty-seventh Division who was
CHARTERED with the British army.
After explaining Foch's three blows
and the big push that would have de-
ieated the Germans upon the field had
not the armistice been signed, Gen.
Maurice explained particularly the

and that the more young men who can
ucvote their efforts to this end the better.
IN his second public appearance, at an
entertainment for soldiers and sailors at
me Manhattan Opera House Yesterday
AFTERNOON, Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt urged
discharged men OF the service to play
the game" when they cot back TO civil
IAN life. He cautioned them against
trading on the uniform and attempting
to see what could be got out of the
world without any effort"
Now that the armies are being dis
banded" he said. at IL up to the real
American to get out into the game ana
take an active part In the affairs OF
everyday life. Let the Democrats take
an Interest in democratic ideals and pol
itics, and the Republicans likewise.
When YOU find out what your ideals are,
go to them and do your best TO secure
them"
The officer was enthusiastically
cheered. The programme included n
singing chorus from the Hampton Roads
naval training school, Sophie Tucker and
her jazz band and a number OF other
acts. Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt said 1t was
his first and probably last appearance
on the vaudeville stage.

there was only one neighbor, an Indian.
