Walnut Street Improved


A great improvement is being ac-
complished on Walnut street in this
village, where the school building is
located, in contemplation of a two
room school being established in
the large school building, on this
street, under the supervision of the
county engineer and the Meigsville
township trustees. A 20 foot road
way is being completed the entire
length of this street from the |. K.
Barnes residence to the county road
at the iron bridge Portion of this
street was elevated nearly two feet
to give natural drainage. Dirt
was obtained from the front lawn
of the VIM. Stegner home nearby,
which made only short haul and
yet improved the appearance OF
the Stegner home. This street will
soon be surfaced with gravel or
crushed stone, making two-way
lane for traffic. This improvement
which was so badly needed, will
now be a reality

the noeQ.
@. How about meetings of my
lodge?
A. During the World war, many
outfits organized their own units of
Masons, knights of Columbus and
such organizations. They held their
meetings at the camp. The same
thing probably will be done again
@. Can l continue my political ac-
tivity?
A. Politicing is out. You have
| the right to vote by absentee bal
lot where your state permits it; but
the army does not look with favor
on it's members taking active part
in political campaigns.
@. What are my chances of get
| ting a leave of absence during the
year?
| A. You may expect leave in
case of emergency at home, and
over holidays.
| @. What about my place in the
army? | suppose all conscripts will
be set off apart from the regular
army and treated somewhat differ
emily.
A. Not at all You probably will
| be assigned to existing units OF the
regular army or the national guard.
| @. What will be my routine dur
ing the year of service?
| A. You will be assigned to an or
| ganization, and will participate in
| all the training, exercises and ma
neuvers of that unit.
| @. What will / learn?
A. That will depend upon the
| type of organization to which you
are ssigned-infantry artillery,
cavalry, signal corps, service of sup
ply.
@. Suppose l have some special
skill. in mechanics, or at clerical
work?
A. To the greatest extent prac-
ticable. the skills which man has
acquired in civilian life will be put
to work in the army. After the
new army has been organized, all
the men probably will be given me-
chanical aptitude tests and clerical
aptitude tests, to discover their spe-
cial qualifications.
| @. What are the chances OF a
recruits winning promotion in the
franks during his year Of service?
| A. Good. You will have every
chance for advancement that reg
ular army man has in an expand
ing army. The larger the army
YOU know, the greater need for otfl-
GERS.
O. Will I have my choice as to
which branch of the army l enter?
A. Yes. Every man will be ask
ed to specify what he desires. Ac-
tual assignment will depend upon a
mans qualifications and the va
cancies to be filled. We can't all
be in the air corps, obviously
| @. Will recruits serve their year
at posts close to home, or far away
A. Some of each. In SO far as
practicable, man will serve as
close to home as possible. This sit
uation exists, however: in Massa-
chusetts. one National Guard unit
will ge on duty in the north, anoth-
er will go to Florida for training
| Where a Massachusetts man served
his army year would depend on
(which outfit he was assigned to.
| O. Will | be allowed to choose
which camp l will serve in?
A. No.
@. Will any training units be sta
toned in Hawaii, Panama, or other
outposts?
A. There will be units there, but
they will be filled with men from
these territories and possessions.
| @. What happens to me at the
end Of the year?
A. You will be relieved from ac-
tive duty and transported home.
O. Then, are my responsibilities
to the army over?
A. No. You will be member OF
the enlisted reserve, subject to call
in an emergency declared by con-
| prpcS

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
ASKED ABOUT THE DRAFT

A young man asks the army some
questions about the draft:
Q. What are my chances of being
drafted into the army in 1910?
A. Roughly, about one in 40. Ap-
proximately 16,000,00O are to regis
ter and 400, 900 are to be called this
year. Personal circumstances too
will affect your chances. If you
are not called this year, you viii
have another chance of being draft
ed next spring.
@. If my number is called, do
automatically enter the army?
A No. You first must pass army
entrance examinations. IN the
World war, the army was surprised
to discover that one out of every

used to help carry out the recent raid on the French fleet or Gran.
 The Italian fleet had stayed close to it's bases ever since Italy en- tered the war, and appeared de- termined to avoid an encounter with the superiority of the British fleets tonnage until the difference could be eliminated or equalized.
 The British have repeatedly chid- ed the Italians because of their reluctance to seek test of strength in the Mediterranean.
 Prime Minister Churchill ha S consistently ridiculed the Italian navy and on recent occasion he openly challenged tl.So Italian fleet to come out and fight. The chal- lenge was made after the British fleet destroyed, captured and crip- pied the greater part of the French fleet at Gran. The encounter east of Malta was apparently an answer to the challenge. But when the Italian fleet reached the vicinity of the encounter, the Italian Ad- miral apparently did not expect to find large part of the British Mediterranean fleet bearing down on him. The resulting encounter was believed to have been only a half battle" because the Italian commander realized he was con- siderably outweighed and made for the open sea in an effort to es- cape. Before the two fleets drew apart, one direct encounter oc- cured between a British and Ital . ian battleship.
 Italian ships in the engagement are said by naval experts to be smaller but faster than most Brit ish ships. Observers believed that this factor might enable most of the Italian fleet, especially the cruisers, to get away. At the same time, it was pointed out that the Italian fleet was definitely away from it's base.

&. !. 0. Board Goes on
Record Against Any
Subversive Movement

Placing itself on record as op-
posed ito any movement or &C
tivity of subversive character,
Trojan horses, or fifth columns
aimed against our Nation and Gov
ernment," the C. I. O. Executive
Board in statement issued yes
terday declared that labors right
must be preserved in carrying out
the emergency national defense
program.
At G press conference, President
John L. Lewis said the c. I. O.'s
declaration against subversive ele-
ments was luivocal, and included
Fascism, Communism and Nazi-ism.
In tone bordering on anger
Mr.. Lewis emphasized the c. I. o.
stand in response to repeated re-
quests for comment on charges
heard during Dies Committee hear
ings that the labor group harbored
Communists.
Exonerated by Dies.
IT am not a Communist and I
am not in sympathy with Com
munists,' Mr.. Lewis said Il am
one of the few men in the country
who has been publicly exonerated
by Mr.. Dies"
The boards statement listed
three specific rights it seeks to
preserve: First, the right of wage
earners to organize into unions of
their own choosing; second, the
right of organized wage earners to
bargain collectively with employers.
and, third, the right of wage
earners to freedom of speech, as
sembly, action and worship
This declaration of labor's rights
Is designed to stabilize industrial
relations, and promote industrial
peace" the board said 1T does
not contemplate industrial strife.
1t seeks to improve the relationship
between wage earners and their
employers; to increase the produc-
tive efficiency of industry; to main
tain labor's existing wage and hour
standards, and to improve these
standards with changing economic
conditions. Any national defense
program must contemplate this kind
of cooperation"
Survey of Labor Needs Urged.
To assure the effective use of
the available labor supply in the
national defense program, the board
urged an immediate survey of the
need of labor, according to type of
skill, industry and location, and a
full inventory Of all workers listed
by the United States Employment
Service.
The board also asked that Federal
funds be made available for the
transportation of workers to areas
where they are needed, and urged
that special attention be given to the
training of young people and ap-
prentices.
