Br0nner each state.
 The chief executive of each state is put right square in the lime-light. He is supposed to pick, in each county, men representative of the various interests of the community who know something about the folks of their community. This is impor- tart.
 MUST WATCH
 KEY FACTORIES
 For instance, the whole life of a small town might revolve around one big factory situated there. If the local draft board allowed that fac- tory to de deunded of too many of its key men by the draft, the plant might have to shut down or slow up production with bad results for the town. A board which knows all the conditions will take precautions against this. This conforms with President RooSeyelt,S announced de- sire that the draft shall upset the life of the community and the na- tion as little as possible.
 The governor in picking the men for the various local boards will have the eyes of the voters upon him. If he picks bad men or >palys politics with the appointments, or anything that smacks of machine building, he will be storing up for himself a lot of trouble the next time he bobs up for elective office.
 But an even bigger mess of trouble is being worked up for the governors if certain proposed plans are approved.

This number is expected to grow to 800 as a result of the activities of the Rev. MT. FrankS's committee. It has accepted the re- sponsibility for organizing the Con- necticut clergy in behalf of the birth control movement.

States. Tn the matter of national defense, 1t is vital that the people be fed and that there be wool and cotton for clothing. Now two of the most important times in the year of the farmer are his harvest time and his spring blowing. POLITICAL
 TIGHT ROPE
 It has been proposed that farmers of draft age be deferred, for the time being, when the various har- vest seasons set in. Thus. in most of the southern states, there is the per- iod when cotton is picked. In Ken lucky, Virginia and North Carolina there is the time when the tobacco
 leaf is cut. Tn Illoii1is and Iowa and some of the adjoining states, there
 is the period when the corn crop is
 gathered. In tn northwestern states
 there is wheat. Tn California; there is the grape harvest. Now If calling of men is to be
 deferred for these reasons, the gov- ernors will have two jobs: 1--To allocate to the cities a part
 of the quota of drafted men, while
 the harvesters are busy in the coun-
 try. s-
 2-To allocate to the agricultural
 counties part of the quota when
 the harvesting season is over. The governors, if this plan goes
 through, will have to walk del-
 icate tightrope. They must not ape
 pear to favor the country as against
 the cities, nor later, to favor the
 cities as against the country. There's big possible loss of votes
 in that procedure.
