CYLDKIt HILL IWVOItKn One plan for rolutton which the Ad ministration, hi conaldetlng Is that ail tested in the (alder hill, Introduced soma days apj In the House, Tlila bill, backed Wholeheartedly by the Federal Trad Com mission, would a;lve the Government con trol of all coil immediately it wit, mined. The Government then would d'trlbute It at ft co..t plili a profit percentage prleu through tbo ordinary channels to big whole aalers. Under the hill the Government In affect Would eay to thse wholesalers: "Here Is your supply of coal. Tho cjst to nu will I 80 mue'i You will be permitted a curtain percentage of profit when you aell to your retail customer. ' The latter, lt turn( wou d be closely wntjhej t.j see what prices they c urged John . v th and Frame Jones. Any ntt 'inpt at uon'ulng of prices, which would apply a super-profit anywhere) along tho line, would be met with refusal ty tha Government for such channels to distribute any more cial It was iuggei led today that not only Coal, but nil Kinds of fuf. bo thus regulated Under the law. There, is also strong senti ment today to push the bill to passage im mediately tho food control hi I Is out of the way Even those who fnvor the Calder bill, however said today It would be Intmtllclont Unless the G vcrnment takes charge aim of alt c al-carrylng cars. The.ie men In sisted "cars l. i'ie anrwer" to the coal and fuel problem i-t surtleient coal cars prop erly distributed and kept properly movlpg to and from the mlnon. the men said, and COal prices automatically .will drop, since sufficient coal ran be always mined to aupply the nation' domestic and export wants. This belief la held by at least two mem t bers of tho Interstate Commerce t'ommls- 10n, by nearly till of the Pmleral Trade ' Commission and by Secretaries Daniels and Baker, Secretary of Interior Lane Inalstn that '. the matter of cars Is only one detail, Lane ' thinks labor Is as big nn Issue.

Meanwhile, tho Conduction of tho new niTchnnt itet to fly the Atnerleaii ling has been ?crloualy hampered, Tho situation alio h.ii been com plicated by tho great delay In congressional action on legislation which the rriMldcnt has demanded bis especially Is so in the case of the food bill nnd the revenue bill, which are held up in the Senate.

Justice and Equality Aim in Army Draft rnilimird from Pace (Ine created for each Federal district In tho country. The entire burden of proof for exemption Is saddled upon the claimant Appeal from the rulings of the tribunals Is provided for In the regulations. PUOCKRS OF rmAFT As outlined In the rules t:ie following are the steps leading up to tho ordering of tho men Into camp: A local exemption board of three mem bers for approximately each 30,000 of population Is set up. Mont of these tribu nals are already formed In many cases they nro the registration boards. Other higher boards for each Federal Judicial district aro formed. They nro composed of flvo men of Hie highest Ktnndlng, nnd known as district or np pcllato boards. Any member of cither board may be removed by the President. On a day to be set tho lower boards meet and organize. The registration cards are taken from the registration boards, which then cease to exist. The cards aro numbered serially from one up, nnd tho name and number posted In a public place and given to the prcsx for publication. At the samo time n copy Is sent to Washing ton. When every card is numbered nnd posted In every precinct In the nation, the stage Is set for the actual drawing. Although the method is left for an other proclamation, It Is known that tho drawing will take place In Washington. After the order In which the men nro called up for servlro Is determined, the quota that each Stato must yield up to the armies will be announced. The State Governors nro dlirclcd to divide tho quotas among the counties nnd cities on the basis of population. Then' a certain number of numbers are drawn In Washington. Kaclt number drawn will strike the men of that number In every precinct "in tha nation. ThoFe numbers and names are again poited and published, and tho men called are notified by mail Next the "honor mon" nre summoned for physical examination before tho local board. Ono member of each hoard Is a physician. Ho Is ordered to make examination In tho presenco ot another member of the board. PHYSICAL TKSTS To guard against any unfairness In the physical examination, tho President makes nn Ingenious provision. In caso tho phy slcian designates any man unfit tho board calls in another physician. He makes an other examination In Ignorance of the first report If both make the same diagnosis a ccitiflcato of disqualification Is Issued. Members of tho hoard aro barred from passing upon any relative case. After the physical examinations are fin ished the boards take up tho exemption of the classes specified In tho rules. A claim supported by affidavits must bo 'ee6-. Lrf' Veilings, Neckwear and Handkerchiefs made br men asking exemption. Claim upon occupational ground must be made to the district board. In making a clnlm for exemption on tho ground ot a dependent tho claimant must furnish an affidavit that the Income for the support of the dependent Is mainly from the fruit of his labor nnd not de rived from property. Ho must bring an other affidavit from the dependent nfllrm ing the dependency nnd nnother from a head of a family stating tho same grounds. Within three days after the affidavit-, are filed tho local board must make Its de cision, nither an absolute, conditional or temporary discharge may be granted. The local boards next report a list of tho men discharged and those not discharged to the district board. Again theso namea nre posted and a notice sent to each. Claims for exemption upon occupational grounds must bo made to the district board within five days nfter the mnn Is notified that he Is drawn. Tho hunlen of a double proof rests upon these claimants. They must prove that tho Industry In which they aro engaged Is ncces-ary Bnd that they are "Indlspcnsablo" to Its successful conduct. Tho regulation provide that claims may be made upon these premises' That he Is actually engaged In a par ticular Industrial or agricultural enter prise necessary to the tnalntcnanco of tho military establishment or the na tional Interest rind that his continuance therein Is necessary to tho maintenance of that Industry and cannot he dispensed , with or replaced without substantial ma terial loss and detriment of that enter prise. ,, liaclt claim must bo supported by affi davits. When In tho opinion of the board tho loss of the man to the Industry outweighs tho gain to tho military establishment, a certificate of dlschnrge Is Issued. Claims for exemption may bo "made by wives, parents, children, employers or any other person for tho man In whom they aro Interested. The boards aro empowered to Investigate affidavits and claims for exemption with any means nt their disposal. After the occupational claims aro passed upon tho district board next reviews tho appeals from lower boards. Upon these ap peals their decision Is final. When It Is adverse the man Is drafted into the army. After all appeals nro decided and occupa tional claims settled, tho district board re ports Its list of eligible"! to the adjutant general of the State. These aro the men that are to bo summoned to tho colors In tho fall. They nro notified by mall. An appeal from tne ntstrlct board In oc cupational claims to tho President Is pro. vided for. Ilut, pending the decision of the appeal, tho claimant may bo summoned to tho camp. ' PLAN OF APPEALS In a later proclamation President Wll son will creato a national board to hear tho occupational appeals The regulations give the President au thority to determine from tlmo to time what general classes of Industries aro necessary lo maintenance of the military establish ment. Theso classes will bo announced by proclamation. Tho district .boards nro or dered to ascertain tho existing conditions of' Industry In their districts to aid In making eqiiltablo exemptions. Another proclamation to follow within a few days will make the laws governing the final step of tlin drafL assembling the men and calling them Into tho camps. On any disputed decision ot the boards a majority rules. Members are barred from taking part In any hearing that concerns any relative rloser than a second cousin. In caso of doubt In physical examinations ns to whether tho man Is unlit, tho Govern ment Is given the benefit of tho doubt and tho mnn Is cei titled aB "fit." To guard against partiality, every caso of an exemption by n lower board is ap pealed automatically to tho upper tribunal. 1'nlers new evidence Is presented after a short time the higher board affirms the decision. This method gives tho public In general an opportunity to present evidence favoring or opposing the decision.
