Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., July 23.
The withdrawal of the invitation by
the military authorities to enlisted men
In the army to apply for discharge Is due
to the fact that the army Is losing Its
best class of men.
Technical experts and non-commis-
stoned officers are making frantic ef-
forts to get out of the service to accept
better positions in private life. The
army is losing a class of ambitious men
who went into the army to obtain a vo-
cational education. At the same time
that Congress reduced the army 1t cut
off appropriations for vocational train
ing. The result has been decrease Of
opportunities in this direction for en-
listed men.
The rapidity with which the army was
increased during the former Administra-
ton was due almost entirely to the op-
portunities for education and vocational
training which were offered by the War
Department. With these largely discon-
tinued young men of the more desirable
class are anxious to get out.

they dispute entirely-that part is
not greater than the whole.
Ulster Is the key to the situation,
for 1 think the republican extremists
would be borne over by mass opinion
in favor of peace and liberty on an
honorable basis such as that accepted
by South Africa and maintained in
Canada. But Ulster cares nothing
about mass opinion except her own
and not all the persuasion in the world
will prevail with her unless her life
interests are at stake.
Her hatred for Catholic Ireland is
intense, inherited and infiamed by re-
llgious bigotry and 1t is certain that In
spite Of the truce Ulster mobs would
massacre the Catholic minorities In
their midst unless those were protected
by British troops. as they have already
tried to. Any attempt by the British
Government to persuade Ulster to ac-
knowledge the supremacy of an all
Irish executive will be received with
shout OF I'VE were betrayed" which.
indeed, has already been uttered. The
irony of God is at work, for in the
British Government now desiring a
reasonable mind in Ulster are men
like Lord Birkenhead who famed the
flames of passion in Ulster when Sir
Edward Carson first raised his army of
"Loyalists" whom other men called
rebels.
No DfctatiOn From Ulster.
believe also that the British Gov
ernment, wncse policy with regard to
Ireland has been dictated from Ulster
for several years, will at last break
from that srell and tell the Ulster
on favored treatment. That will be
treachery 10 the laws OF favoritism,
but loyalty 20 the nober code of
honor.
One thing is certain. 1t Is that
Premier Lloyd George and his Min
listers have scrapped their policy Of
war in Ireland and will not return to
1t il they can And resting place in
any half way house. Indeed, If they
fail now to get peace through any
fault of their own 1t will go hard with
them among their own people. On the
other hand, II ireland claims impossi-
BILE things they will have lost the SYM
pathy of the world. which supports
their desire Cor greater liberty in self
government, but will have no patience
If there is renewal Of murderous
anarchy.
In many ways this settlement Of
the Irish question, as Of the other
problems which threaten peace. Is be-
fore the jury Of world opinion. The
truce was made because the politicians
knew they could no longer face that
jury with a case for war;. Opinion in
the United states, not Of Sim Feiners
whose excess Of passion defeats itself,
but of moderate, sane counsellors, had
profound Influence which was united
at a critical time with that of the
British imperial Premier. That opinion
will still be helpful IL it presses for
reasonable concessions by all sides and
rebukes fanatics who would rather
see Ireland N flames for a republican
war cry than Ireland free under the
nominal sovereignty of a King who
has proved his love for her at the
risk Of his life.

Bureau Of Soils, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, has been
published and is now available, ac-
c0rding to an announcement from the
department. The survey was made
20 determine the nature Of soil types
in order that local farmers may be
assisted in fitting crops to soils to best
advantages.
The report of the survey contains
a detailed color map Of the county
showing the extent and distribution
of The various soil types. 1t con-
tans 81 pages Of text which describe
the various soils and discuss their cap
abltcs. The report also includes brief
historical and geographical sketches
Of the region, together with statistics
relating to the climate and farm prac-
tees.
A few years ago cotton was grown
on more than half Of the cultivated
area in Newberry county, but in more
recent years the wheat acreage has
increased owing to the demand for
food products. Corn, oats, vegeta-
bles, sWct potatoes, and sorghum are
now grown extensively. Glover is be-
coming more common and is used for
soil Improvement. The bulletin sug-
gcsts that live stock should be raised
more extensively, and that more at
tention should be given to rotating
crops.
The soils of Ncwberry county fall
into three natural divisions: Upland
or residual soils, terrace or old-allu-
vial soils, and first bottom or recent
alluval soils. The residual soils cover
the largest area and are the most i'm
portant. The survey classifies the
soils of the county into 16 types and
I phases. Copies of the report may
be had free on application to the

ture, Washington, D. c.
