MACHINERY FOR 2ND

PRESIDENT WILBON WRITES
FOREWOR DTO REGULATIONS
. ' FOR SECOND CALL.
MAY BE DIME IN FEBRUARY
Regulations and Questions Forwarded
to Local Board*—Must be Complete
Inventory of QualHloatlons of Eseh
—Registrant.
Washington.— President Wilson tor
mally put the new machinery for the
carrying the selective draft bill into
operation with the publication Of the
foreword he has written to the regulat
ions under which the second call will
be made. The regulations themMlves
and he questlonalres which more than
9,000,040 registrants will be required
to fill out sre being forwarded to local
boards, but have not yet been made
public. *■
War Department officials estimate
that the whole process can be com
pleted within 60 days. This meaas
that no second call will be made upon
the draft forces before the middle of
next February, as the period of classi
fication will not begin until December
15th.
The president describes the new
plan of dividing all registered men not
already mobilised into five classes,
subject to military service by classes,
as being intended to produce "a more
perfect organization of our man
power."
"The selective principle must be
scarrled to its logical conclusion," the
Preaident said, and he added that
there must be made a complete lnven-
Tory of the Qualifications of each
registrant In order to determine "the
place in the military, industrial or
agricultural ranks of the nation In
which his experience and training can
best be made to serve the common
good."
The inquiry projected in the ques
tional™ will go deep into the qualifi
cation of each of nearly 10,000,000 men.
The success of the plan and Its comple
tion within the estimated time rests
absolutely upon the wholehearted sap
port given by the people especially by
the doctors and lawyers of each com
munity.

The wireless message, which escap

being sent from Hapamnda, says Pre
mier Kerensky left Petrograd Tues
day for general headquarters, being
concealed In the bottom of an aato
raoblle ambulance. It is understood
he was accompanied by Qsaeral Alex

TO STANDARI2E BREAD

Washington Definite steps to stan

taken when President Wilson leaned

tration rules prescribing Ingredients
and weights of loaves. Prices will not
be fixed, but with the standard ieaion
It is expected that natural competition
and simplification ot distribution will
force down psicee.
Fancy breads will be eliminated and
the multitude ot sizes now produced
will be reduced to conform with stan
dard Ingredients. The weights will be
one pound, one and a half, two and
four pounds. The loaves will have a
crease in the middle to permit their
sale in halves. In baking only three
pounds of sugar will be allowed for a
barrel of flour. Instead of an average
of six pounds now used, and two
pounds of vegetable on shortening
must be used Instead of six poands of
lard or ell. The food administration
expects to save 100,000,000 pounds tt
sugar and the same amount ot lard.

Cannot be Wen Unless All Paetions
Ars UnMad.
Buffalo, N. T.—President Wilson, in
a forceful addreas here before ths
Americas Federation of Labor, ap
pealed to the worklngmen of the Unl
tad States for co-operation in the con
dast of the was, mada.lt emphatically
clear tbsit ha opposes peace unll this
war agalsat- Germany Is won.
The prestdsnt declared that his
heart was with the "feeling of the
panltots, bui that my mind has a con
fniiK {or OMB."
"I want peace, but I know how to
•at-it aad theyvde sot," he declared.
Col. X. M House, head of the
American delegation to the allied war
conference, the president said, had
been sent to take part In a conference
ae ta how the war was to be won, and
he knows, as I know, that that is the
way to g«t peace it you want it for
mors than a few minutes
The 460 delegates to the conven
tion and the several thousand persons
admitted to the hall to hear the presi
dent speak, arose and applauded this
declaration with a tremendous burst of
cheers. Another demonstration of ap
proval cams when he said:
"Ws must stand together, night and
day, until this Job is finished.''
For Foreign Consumption.
The president, While devoting his
address- to problems for the people of
the United States, laid emphasis upon
the brooded phases of the world eon
flttt in a way that seeded to lndl-
oate that his speech was pbssibly in
tended as a massags to the> people of
Germany, of Austrl* aad of Russia, as
well as of ths United States. He de
clared Ills belief that were it not for
the Pan-Germans, the spirit of freedom
would find "as fine a welcome in the
hsartsof Germans as It can End la any
other heart.
"Power," he saM, "cannot be used
with concentrated forces against free
peoples, If It is to be used by free
people."
Speaking, probably of Austria, Mr.
Wilson referred to the Intimations of
anxiety for peace that had come,
"from one of the central powers' 'aad
declared that K meant "that he peo
ple of Chat central power knew that
If the war end* aa It stands, they will
fa effect, themselves be vasaals of Oer
many, notwithstanding • * • that they
do not Wttit In thslr pride and proper
■plrlt of nationality to be absorbed and
dominated."
Of It a—la, he eaid that ha vu
amaiad that aome groans In that
country could inppose that "any re
form plans- la the inter eat of the peo
ple can live In the presence' of a Oar
may powerful enough ta undermine
or uraittimw them by Intrigue or
f&rea.*
"Ftetuous aa the dreamers of Rus
sia." ware these persons In this ooun
try, he declared emphatically, who sap
pose that "the free Industry and en
terprise of tha world' can eoatlnne If
the pan-Oerman plan Is achieved and
tha German power fastened upon the
world.
Germany Started War.
Tha President directly aaeertaff that
Oermany had started the war and
said hs would leave confirmation of
this statement to tha verdict of hli
tory. He letaried to Germany'*
growth to a "place in tha snn" and
asked why she waa not satisfied when
aha gained that poatthm. In answer,
he deacrtbdd tha On limn govern
ment's mathoda of coatroUtar tha
competition of itr Industries and as
sarted that "aIT tie while there waa
friar Mrta* lta thought la Its dreams
for tha future, a political control
which would enable It la tha long
ran to doariaate the labor and the
Industry of tha world.
Mr. Wilson cited Is this connection
the Berlla-t«-Bacdad railway which he
■aid. "waa constructed to run the
threat of fore* dawn the flank of the
Industrial undertakings of half a doz
en other coaatrtaa, ao that when Car
man competition came in It wauld
not ha resisted too far - • • because
there waa alwaya tha poealMlity of
getting Oertaaa aalw Into- the heart
of that country quicker than aay oth

Bumming up. he said that Oermany
Is determined that the political pawei

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy.—The Italians are holding the
Austro-Oerman advance on the Plave
ltne. Reports from the frost were fa
vorable.
Heavy ahalling is In progress all
along the new front.
The Itallana are entrenched back of
the west bank of the Plave river and
the Austro-German force now Is tak
ing the place of the advanced guard
on the east bank. Ths strip of water
between the opposing lines Is about
half a mile, widening at some points
to a mile.
An observer Just bsck from a tour
along ths llns told the correspondent
that the cannonade had become con
tinuous. The Austrlans sre using 6-
Inch guns, not yet having brought up
many of their heaviest pieces. The
enemy is turning his flfe against the
high campanllle bell towers of small
village! fringing, the western bsnk to
prevent the Italian artillery from us
ing thsm ss observation posts. The
Italian artillery reply Is spirited from
a considerable number of guns that
they succeeded In bringing back from
the old front.
The battle front has two main ssc
tors. The lower extends from Keltre
to the ses snd ths uppsr from Fsltrs
westward.
LLOYD GEORGBTS FAITH IN
FINAL OUTCOME IS FIRM
"Single Front, Bingis Army, Single
Nstlen, Is Program Requisite
for Vlotory."
Paris.—"A single front, a single
army, a alagle nation—that is the pro
gram requisite for futurs victory,"
said Premier Palnleve at a luncheon
la honor of David Lloyd George, the
British prims minister, who has just
returned from the Italian war ions,
and Slgnor Barenlnl, Italian minister
of eduoatlon. "If after 10 months ol
war, after all the lessons ths war was
taught us, ths allies were not capabls
of that sacred international union,
,then in* spite of their sacrifices they
would not be worthy of victory."
I In dlicunlng the manner of aceom
pllshmem of thla fusion, to which th*
allies have long aaplred, M. Palnlev*
said; " .
! "The enemlea' alliance realised
unity of effort by brutal discipline,
one ft the peoples among them ha»
{ lng mastered the others snd rendered
them serviceable. But we are faee
peoples. We do not admit of subjeo
tion to other peoples Hi tisM of war.
That independence is at the saais
time a source iff strength and wsalS
nee*, of strength because of thetr ca
; paclty for realstanee which Is un
known to subject people*, aad weak
ness because It renders more difficult
co-ordination of military operation*.
To reconcile thl* Independence with
the need for unity of direction which
'ls required to achieve an efficacious
policy will be the work of the
lnter-allled war committee or of the
superior war council Just created by
the alllea."
Premier Lloyd George, alluding to
a centralised direction of the allied
efforts, said:
"Unfortunately we did not have
time to consult the United States or
Raaala before creating thla council.
The Italian disaster necessitated ac
ton without delay to repelr It.
"But, In order to aasure the com
plete success of thl* great experiment,
which I believe la eaeentlal to the vic
tory of our cause, It will be neceeeary
that all our great alllea be repre
sented la the deliberations. I am
persuaded thet we shall obtain the
.consent of these two great countries,
