The suppression of the professional SjLeS0iter," demoralizers and ed and Congress was desired to amend the draft law to render liable to mili-! tary service all able-bodied males 18 to 50 years not steadily engaged five days per week in useful employment; that the Governor appoint county boards of public welfare to list all able bodied persons in the counties 18 years or over, not in useful employ ment, and list farmers and others needing laborers and endeavor to get employers to refuse to employ persons unless thev obligate to work regularly and then promptly prosecute them if they fail to work at least 40 hours per week. The county boards to also explain to the people the difference between the useless and useful employment and get the employment of women where this is possible and to generally conserve available labor. The resolutions also urged town or ganizations to go whenever possible into the country districts to give aid to the farmers in their harvest or other work, and declare that any one, white or black, who is able to work and will not work or enable oth er to work giving up luxuries and needless service, is guilty of slacker ism.

Sole agents for America 400 Wst 234 Street New York To the Editor of The Robesonian: You might say that the opinion of the potato people at Wilmington, also the Northern representatives there, is that we should not put the crop on the market just yet, as the South Car olina "Old Belt" crop is going on now. and it should get out of the way in a few days. Where the vines have died down, as on bottom lands, and they wish to get it off the land for other crops, it could be dug and stored in ( joI ven tilated houses for few days ?'id sniu just as well thereby. Wilmington growers say they will do this, and they can choose a time when the soil is in good condition to dig not too wet, so as to get a bright grade clear of dirt Grading will have to be done by tiv ' new U. S. grading rules, as every thing will have to sell by these grades. Yours very truly, OLIVER C. CONNELLY. Lumberton, N. C, June 6, 1918. Gilchrist, Lumberton; Elizabeth Fair cloth,, Haywood J.

Upon a case being- presented, the board will serve a notice on the registrant, of than seven days, directing him to not less than three days nor more present such evidence as he may care 1200 New York Doctors Fighting Poison Gas.
