Crossing —257 Stores in 97 Cities— Wharton Pepper, a representative of: the Pennsylvania State Defense Coun- cfl and chairman of & national com- - mittee of patriotic and defemse so- icietlies. The reservé would be headed dy a board of nine nationally known men which would operate through a na- tional committee pf members from all the states. Under the national com- mittee there would be state and dis- triet committees and in Washington a permanent headquarters committee would sit to- carry on administrative work. . Membership on the board of nine has been tentatively accepted, it was stated by W. H. Taft, Major General George W. Goethals and Henry L. Stimson. The purpose of the organi- zation would be to ald in recruiting to work under any private employer :nmerl on government contracts, or n farms and to supply the army and navy. When not in active service, re- serve members could aid in home de- fense. They would recelve compen- sation for the time spent in govern- ment service. One of the serious problems facing the government, Mr. Pepper declared, is to utilize the efforts of the thou- sands who are volunteering for any service they can render. Creation of the reserve, he said, would lift & bur-: den from the shoulders of govern- ment officials and give volunteers a chance: to be of real service. The defense councll yesterday gave the govérnors and state representa- tiveg an outline of a program for state assistance ‘to the federal government in the conduct of the war. They were told that state defense council could do these things: Promote patriotic spirit and educate the people to the magnitude of the task ahead; aid in recruiting the Na- tional Guard, assist in carrying out the enroliment for the new army and in determining exemptions from draft; maintain labor standards; establish labor clearing houses; assist in get- ting workers to use their “broken time’ on the farms; assist in getting idle men and boys to the farms; af. ford facilities in aiding the govern- ment to collect revenue; help float the liberty loan; oryanise central food production committess to work with the state defense councils; supply their own food requirements wherever possible, and reduce waste . the home. The state councils were asked to induce older and more men to enter military training camps, as men going 'to the first campe prod- ably will be advanced in grade in the near. future. Members of the federal council's organization outlined at length to the governors steps the government is taking to put the country in a state of preparedness. Daniel 'Willand, chairman of the commities on trans- portation, described the work of the general railroad board, which is now operating the country's raliroad lines as one continual system. Howard Coffin, chairman of the committee on munitions, told of efforts to find facil- ities for an adequate supply of .uns and ammunition. Dr. Frankin Msrtin, of the M advisory commission, and m General Rucker, of the public health service, discussed military and etvillan health problems. George Creel, of the government publicity bureas, urged that the people de informed of what is trenspiring in govenment and state cioles. A paper by Samuel Gom- pers was read, ‘advising that no change be made in present Ilabor standard during the war. Elliott Wadsworth, vice chairmen of the jgmerican Red Cross, outlining the ppurposes of the organization, satd that six Red Cross hospital units of 180 persons each would go to Europe within & short time. Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, chair- man of the council’s committee on supplies, sald that the government was using every effort to get uniforms for the new army, but that many sol- diers would have to wear uniforms of inferior cloth or spend their first few weeks in camp in civilian clothes. At present, he said, factories were not making enough army cleth and the council had been held back because of delay in passing the army Mill.
