A direct opportunity for-the most valuable servite has now arrived, and the need is urgent. It is-of paramount importance, to the selective: features of the draft and to the effective employment of the man power of the army- that every man be 0 placed in it as to give the most ad- vantage to his qualifications. 4 The problem is, therefore, to find the men wa can do the various things necessary 'in ‘the, modern army. For this purpose, a central classi- fled oceupational filé will be organized in the proyost marshal general's office | I at Washington, so that when calls are wmade upon this dffice by the several branches of the army for men of spe- ¢ial occupations or skill we can notify the various diefrict boards just how many and what persons af those quali- fications are to be found in their jur- isdiction;. and the boards can then proceed to the selection under the law. Without such a central.classified file, repeated exanilnations by -the boards or by Charies Kingsley and Fred Dervin, ‘who were coming down the road and noticed the smoke.

MRS, ALLIE HOWLAXD, MISS EDITH SHIPPEE. Wauregan, Conn., Jan. 28, 1918, GZERIN'S ADDRESS WAS NOT CABLED TO PRESIDENT | Austrian Foreign Minister' Said He Would Get It “Immediately by Tele- graph.” [ra— Washington, Jan. 29.—The story that Count Crernin told Austrian delegates he had sent a copy of his war aims spéech to President Wilson in advance of delivery was exploded today by a a cable received at the state depart- ment quoting an extract from the Ber- | liner Tageblatt of vesterday explain- ing that, refusing to tra dress directly to the pr it his ad- ent, Czer- by telegraph.” The Berliner Tageblatt says: “It would be wrong to take Czernin's statement too literally and to believe that the American president received i directiy or indirectly from Austrin a special report on the speech. The ¢ us follows; ocialist delegate requested Crernin to transmit his reply to Wil son through the intermediary of a neu- tral country. Czernin_ refused, say- ing Wilson would get it, the speech, immediately by telegraph. Thus the oxpression ‘at the same hour’ is not }to ‘be taken literally. With the ex- coption cf Czechs and the socialists who preferred direct communication to Wilson, all others wera satisfled with Czernin's reply. It can be reiterated that there was no direct communica- tion and that the good offices of neu- tral powers were not requested.” MANAGERS OF SHIPYARDS WARNED TO BE WARY Because of Reports of National-Wide Plots Against the Plants.
