LAUNCH MOVEMENT TO EXEMPT THE FAJIMERJ. Coy.mm.nt N««d» ail Food •tuff* it cm Gmi hat Harvut Hand* mr» Scarce. Waabingtmi, Oct. 14,—A formida ble buvumiii U under way, particu larly in the South, U> have the Praai ileat ,*eua • prorlMMtiwi exempting faraMra from military aervice. It ii argued by trnnu1» ol tba prupuaition that tha draft la. hue already aeri ouely impaired work on (ha farm* and that tuileaa noma meamiree ara aom takaa, it will be practically aast to impoeaible to hanwt eropa. it .til bo recalled that Rapraeenta tive boughten ha* ccmUmded for thia exemption at tha farmera far torn* tuna. Ha had a very otormy aaaaim .Ml Provaet Marshal Cra.dor *«m* vnln ago. L>ou«hton contended that General Crowder had atatad to him that fai mai i wooid at laaat axruaad from duty until their eropa war* har veated. The general. however, denied that he had any audi intention. He later prnmiaed to take the matter op with President Wilxon If Mr. Dough ton would write him • letter Matins the facta in the caae. Thia Mr. Daugh ton did. With the government wading all tha available foodatuif* not only for uae in thia country, but to help feed the Mi dler* abroad, it ia pointed out that the farmer* engaged in raiding product* should he exempted from aervice, they pi tying a moat important part in the conduct of tha war. MWHild r umpt imr rarmerm J. J. Brown. rommnnaMr of agri culture for the itate of Gaorgia, who was in Washington today attending a meeting of tho cottonseed producer with the federal food administrator ia another one of the prime movers in this plan. Mr. Brown stated today that the governor of Georgia and pr<v hably one or more other prominent officials on the south would he in Washington Wednesday or Thursday to lay the proposition before l*ie»i d«nt Wilson. "It seems to me that in the present emergency and the i^maK* made frojn all quarters for foodstuff* of si', kinds" -taid Mr. Brown in 4i*cussi-g the mat ter today, "that farmers should be exempted from military service. There is a crying need for help on the farms at the present time due to the IjMt that a large number uf cur your g men have been taken away sad drafted into the army. The 'armer can do his bit by remaining nt home tilling the soil and ra'*in;; the prod;i.-t< whfh are absolute?/ essential to feed iw*t o^ly the soldiK'R arwl sailors of thr l'n:*e<l States but h-'p fn alleviating foud conditions in tho-*; European countries at war against the govern moot of the kaiser." It is known that the Pr*s:<lant has been gviing a good deal of thought to the proposition and tha* he realizes that the farms throughout the country must not he depopulated. He regard the farmer a:' the most important ad junct in bringing the war to a suceex ful conclusion, for without food the men who are fighting ihe i-ntlcs of the nation would n . :-'u i ! up long again st a foe whose forces are sopplieJ with the necc. sary foodstuffs. Wheth er however the President would care to go as far as to exempt all farmers from military service is problemati cal, although he will no doubt take such steps to keep as many of thern at work as possible.
