This tragedy of the sea, the first in which an American ship engaged in war duty has been lost, is the first of its magnitude to bring home to the people of the United State sthe rigors of the war in which they have engag ed against Germany.

The plan was submitted recently to a conference of civilians who directed exemption board activities in a num ber of states, and received indorse ment of most of them, who are now discussing the proposed plan with their state governors. It is proposed to formulate in each local draft district a table of all reg istrants, placing each in a column donoting his dependents and indus trial value i the war's prosecution. For instance, horizontal columns or classifications would be based on db pendency. Men with no dependents would be placed in the first class, those with dependent relatives in the second class, those with wives in the third class, those with a wife and one child in the fourth class, and so on. Similarly, the vertical columns might represent certain industries ar ranged according to their respective merit as war necessities. Industrial classes under consideration- in this connection are farmers, shipyard em ployes, munition workers, railway and miners, industry branches to be designated from time to time by the President or the war department as temporarily essential. The latter classification might include plants making military clothing, har ness, first aid materials, or profes sions such as chemists and other scien- j.est tific men more needed for war research uiau io carry arms.

President Wilson has set Wednes day Oct. 24th as Liberty Day. He urg es that every American citizen think over the importance of the bond sale on that day and make a purchase of a bond in some denomination. He is anxious to have at least one bond in every American home. Rich corpora tions would immediately take the en tire issue, but that is not tho idea. There is a limit on how far you can go as many subscriptions were reduc ed when the first issue was over-subscribed by a billion dollars. The increase in the Bale in Cleve land which has been apportioned $322, 000 is very encouraging and the cen tral committee of which Mr. Forrest Eskridge is chairman feels that grat ifying reports will come in from the township committees by the last of the week. The time is short, however and what the township committees do to urge the sale of the bonds person ally upon the people, must be done this week, reports from township chairmen are slow coming in and if they have not reported, they are ask ed to do so in order that the subscrip tions might be acknowledged in Fri day's Star. If you have not put any time to the sale of bonds, make a vig orous effort this week. The ladies are working steadily.
