To help keep this Nation physically fit, Uncle Sam will take 38,000 young men, between the ages of 17 and 31 years, and in 39 training camps for 30 days teach them to become better citizens. For while emphasis is placed on physical development, there will also be instruction supplementing the chools of the land, true democracy will prevall with no favors shown and the youth of the land will be given a clearer conception of duties he owes his country. The United States Gov- ernment bears all the expenses, and there is no obligation for subsequent military duty. The purpose of these camps as stated by Robert C. Davis, the fine. figured, energetic, capable young ad- jutant general of the United States Army, is “to bring together young men from all sections of the country on a common basis of equality, under the most favorable conditions of out- door lite, and through thoughtful be- havior,® physical development, ath- letic excellence and mass training fo benefit them individually while afford ing them a better understanding of the position they occupy as citizens in_the team-play of the Nation.” ear formal lec- nstructors will be avoided, théught that short confer ences or talks, in which candidates talge part in practical demonstrations and discussions, will usually accom- plish better results. Some of the sub- Jjects which the trainee will be asked to discuss include the meaning of liberty, constitutional government and national defense. The young men of these camps come from the office, the store, the factory and the school. Fach counts for what he is, not for what he has or was. The only distinction among them is that which each man may earn for himself by his own charac. ter, his own ability and his own hard work. In the camps they come into a closer sense of business partnership with the United States Government, & keener interest in the welfare of that Government. The country be- comes real to them—not as.an iso- lated village, a bit of a great city, lonely farm or a place that holds a job—but as an entity, something to be guarded and loved. There comes to them a greater de: gree of mental alertness, a valuable experience in the benefits of .disci- pline under proper conditions, and finally a new resolve to become more worthy. of the title of American citi- zen. The young men give their time, their energy and their thought. Uncle Sam does the rest. The United States Government pays all necessary ex- penses. It pays transportation to and from home for each youth at the rate cents a mile over the shortest al route. Uniforms, shoes, hats, leggins and other articles of soldlers’ clothing, necessary laund: good wholesome food, bedding and liv. ing quarters and medical attention are all furnished free of charge. Inculcation of the spirit of fair play in all things is fostered and developed. Carelessness and untidiness, which are among the worst American faults, re not tolerated. A full schedule in the open air eliminates pern idleness. Candidates to attend their own church services and a sufficlent number of chaplai of all faiths are assigned to the traim. ing camps. The War Department has adopted for these camps the standard physical tests prepared by the National Ama- teur Athletic Federation. The justly famous Army setting-up exercises have an important place in every camp program. Boys are taught the “correct -methods of developing their bodfes by devoting & few min- utes daily to physical training that will stand them in good stead in the years ahead of them Tanned, vigorous, with new ideas as to personal hygiene, a sense of duty to their country fresh in thelr minds, « new feeling of comradeship for their tellow citizens, carrying themselves With & new snap and grace, these young men will gcatter over the coun- try at the conclusion of the training period far more valuable as citizens than ever before. That's how Uncle Sam is building up the morale of his citizenshyp in Deace times without leaning to com- pulsory militarism, (Copyright, 1925, by Will P.

Mediator Arranges Parley, But Outcome Is Believed Doubtful. Representatives of the union leaders will confer with the Master Painters’ Assoclation at 4:30 this afternoon in an effort to come to some agreement and end the present strike. This conference was broyght about through the efforts of John Colpoys, United States conciliator. Whether or not the result of this meeting will mean the end of tne strike those close to the situation could not foretell, be- cause of the continued determination of both sides of the controversy over the question of increased wages. Firmly Against Pay Increase. Up to noon today the master paint. ers were still firm in their decision not to grant any compromise that would involve the slightest pay raise. ‘Whether or not the long-term wage contract will have any effect in chang- ing the attitude of the parties to the controversy Is also not known at this time. Meanwhile, both sides are maneuver- ing with equal determination to gain vantage points, Much joy (AR, Hyattsville Hills lots two- years ago for $200.00, but you didn’t—so they will cost you from $600.00 up now.

Employers Stop Job. This morning, however, it was found that the operative builders had caused the stopping of a large operation on Wwhich the Haslip Co. was employed. It is understood that this will mean about 25 union painters will be czlled off the job. The operative builders are now awalting the reply of the Master Plumber’ Association as to whether or not they will grant an increase. It is recognized that strike in the plumbing and steamfitting trads would tie up a considerable amount of bullding and would be very much more serious in its consequences than the present painters’ strike. — KRESGE SALES SLUMP.

PLANS APPEAL | IN ALIEN FUND CASF Fights Decision That German Prop- erty Held Should Be Urel to Pay Americans. 22, The Government will appeal from the decision by the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia that tunds held by the alien property cus- todian should be used to reimburse American holders of $3,000,000 in Treasury notes of the imperial Ger- man government. In making this announcement last night Attorney General Sargent said the appeal would be taken on behalf of the alien property custodian, the Treasurer of the United States and the United States Government. American bankers purchased the notes, with the acquiescence of the State’ Department, before the United States entered the war, and a group of these holders recently brought proceedings in the District of Colum- bia courts for reimbursement out of the allen property funds The Gov- ernment opposed the suits on the ground that the court was without Jurisdiction to entertain them, and contended that the United States was entitled to share with the note-hold- ers in the distribution of such funds, since large Federal claims also are pending against Germany.
