Now that we are at war, the
phrase national health, safety,
or interest" no longer includes
a mere convenience and COM
fort.
In order that an activity may
be considered essential to the
support of the war effort, its
facilities must be predomin-
antly devoted to that purpose.
Selective service regulations
provide that in Glass ia shall
be placed necessary men in ag-
ricultural or stockraising pur-
suits. However, this may only be
done after it is shown that the
man is necessary" to the main
tenance of the unit of produc-
ton, but every effort must be
continued to be made to replace
such men within a period of
six months or less, and farm
ers and stockraisers are warned
that they can not expect to
keep indefinitely potential IA
men in a deferred class. Stays
of induction may be granted
to meet short seasonable de-
mandS.

there is a no-strike agreement for

of strikes. That they are simply
fighting big business in the form
of the milk trust.
Three things are being attempted
by this expansive District so" of

They are organizing first, the dairy

with a former dairy farmer no
longer on the farm; l have talked
with a member of n of the farm
groups which have held a series of
meetings here in Washington who
are seeking remedial legislation to
cure the ills of the union move
ment.'
At District so they merely say
the movement is a great success:
that 33 district leaders representing
10 states who met here in Wash

paign are enthusiastic. | was told
that already 10000 dairy farmers or
farm workers had been signed up.
That headquarters was getting in
quiries at the rate of a thousand a

Members of the department of ag-
riculture are staying out of this
whole business officially.
But most of them have farm back
grounds themselves and l imagine
they don't feel very differently from
other farmers who are not directly
affected. The ones who look on the
thing as a theory rather than a fact
and it still is a theory at this

And these farmers simply say:
we'll, farmers and workers just never
seem to be able to work together.
They look at things differently. And
this applies to farm help as well
as farm wners. Because farm help

Of Personal Neofness

THERE is a growing tendency
l. in this country toward slo-
venly dress. Men in suspenders,
girls in dirty Stacks are far too
common sight in restaurants and
refreshment parlors. But what,
they ask, does it matter? Who cares
anyhow? Nobody is any better than
anybody else in this country!
But there is a confusion, says
Margaret Culkin Banning in the
October Good Housekeeping maya
zine between slopiness and democ-
racy. Yet as we prepare to defend
democracy, one of the first steps is
to insist on neatness and some for
mality of dress in our army. Our
soldiers know that disciplined neat
ness is necessary in the army be-
cause it sustains self-respect and
morale.
Gliding as for our personal I'M
tidiness Miss Banning writes; Cor
derliness is not matter of extrava-
gance. It doesn't cost anything to
button your collar, to pull up your
socks, to wear your coat when you
should. 1t takes little work to stay
clean and mended and brushed and
shaved; but it is useful work, for it
destroys carelessness in both mind
and body and checks tendencies to
self-indulgence. These small person.
al things, multiplied by millions, are
important to our national morale and
they are definite contributions that
many of us can and should make.
For if we are clean orderly
