It is val- uable for ralsing on a large scale, and, while naturally a very ti may be raised more eas than any other. It has a dis y perhaps inet type Many growers who ra green ducks for market look askance at the Runner or at any of the small breeds of ducks, They want Pekings, which weigh ten pounds or more to the pair when ready for market.

BIG MEN GIVING SERVICES Co-ordinating the Industries of the Country So That Each Can Ren. der the Limit of Its Potential Service to Government, By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—Probably a thousand times a day this question is asked by visitors to Washington: “What is the Council of National Defense?” It is apparent also from letters that are received in the capital that the exact nature of the council and of its great advisory committee is not gen- erally nor thoroughly understood. The Council of National Defense itself con- sists simply of six cabinet officers, the secretaries of war, navy, intertor, agri- culture, commerce and labor. The ad- visory committee of national defense, which is affiliated with the council, consists of a commission of seven bus!- ness men who, with the departments assigned to them, are as follows: Daniel Willard, transportation and communication (president Baltimore & Ohio railroad), chairman, Howard E. Coffin, munitions and manufacturing (including standardi- zation) and industrial relations, vice president Hudson Motor company. Julius Rosenwald, supplies (includ- ing clothing, ete.), president Sears, Roebuck & Co. Bernard M. Baruch, raw materials, minerals and metals, banker, Dr. Hollis Godfrey, engineering and education, president Drexel institute. Samuel Gompers, labor, including conservation of health and welfare of workers, president American Federa- } tion of Labor. Dr. Franklin Martin, medicine and surgery, including general sanitation, secretary General American College of Surgeons, Chicago. All Freely Undertaken. Upon these men devolved the task of so co-ordinating the industries of the country that each and all, figura- tively speaking, could render to the government the limit of its potential service at the pressing of a button, Less than 100 salaried persons are working for the government under the advisory committee of national de- fense—of the members of the com- mittee itself only one or two have even rendered expense bills. From 400 to 500 men, whose incomes from their business ranges from $5,000 to more than $100,000 a year, are giving their services to the government that ; the United States may perform its share of winning the war against Ger- many, The vital thing at first was to as- certain the needs of the country, to learn the things industry must supply to put our soldiers into the fleld and keep them there and to supply the needs of ourselves and our allies, A dozen major subjects instantly sug- gested themselves when the business men began to put their heads togeth- er: the best use to be made of the railroads, both for the transportation | of troops and of material to keep our | ; industries going and our citizens fed; the part the waterways should play in the scheme of transportation; the mo- bilization of military and industrial resources; the increase of agriculture and manufacture to meet the abnor. ; mal demands incident to war; the | building of ships, and the compilation of an enormous mass of data fram which any reasonable question with | reference to military and industrial ca- pacity could be answered. Railroads and Telephones. Already the 230,000 miles of rafl- road In the United States have been virtually commandeered by the advi-+ sory committee, which, through Chair- man Willard, can issue to them more arbitrary orders than President WU- son, under the most drastic law, prob- ably would care to issue. This is a | voluntary service of the railroad and admittedly possibly is intended as an answer to some of the railroad criti- cisms in congress. One man also now governs the tele- | phone—Theodore N, Vail, president of | the American Telephone and Tele- graph company, For the first time in| | telephone history regulars and inde- pendents are working side by side for the good of the country. More than| 10,000 miles of wire have been set} ' aside for the special use of the army; and the navy and some of the other | departments. Modern methods for | using the telephone are being intro-| | duced and new systems installed, one | | of which will cover completely the | | signal service in the field, Washing- SHOOT GIRL AS SPY , MARGUERITE MAC LEOD A Paris court martial has convicted Miss ‘MacLeod, known an the stage as Mata ‘Haria, Hindu dancer, or spy- ing end has sentenced her to death.

AND SOLDIERS RESULTS IN INJURY OF BRAKEMAN Northern Pacific train No. 4 this morning brought in meagre reports of a pitched batle between troops and LW We of Forsythe, Mont., this morning in which Walter Waterman, Orakeman on the special train carry- ing the troops, was shot through the fleshy part of his shoulder when he got between the combatants in his ef- fort to quell the disturbance. Brakeman Waterman, who is a single man, was brought as far as Glendive this morning in the baggage car of ‘No. 4 and was placed in the hospital there. No official report of the occurrence was obtainable from Northern Pacific officials, and the bag- gageman in whose car the injured man cared for knew little of the details.
