V ORGANIZED PLAN OF HOME DEFENSE Cumderland County System Is Expected to Commend Itself Generally FOR RAPID CONCENTRATION The Distribution of Platoons and Sec ; tlona of Platoons Will Thoroughly I Covsr the County Areas Equip , ment of Member Rapid Work. Harrisburg. Adequate protection at borne while national and State troops are In (France by means of easily mobilized tanks of Home Defense Guards will )be given, following the start of organi sation work by the Pennsylvania Pub lic Safety Committee along a plan Involved by the Cumberland County branch. Gov. Brumbaugh's signature on July J8 to the act creating the force has 'given the necessary legal authority, and plans for complete enrolment have i.been formulated by Major John C. Oroome, director of the department. Cumberland County Is organizing 'under Capt. D. E. Brindle a home de fense system which will serve as the jmodel for the extension of the service to all counties. The plan provides that the Home 'Defense Police of each county shall consist of a headquarters and platoon eystenl, the platoons being strategi cally located for rapid concentration iOf their component units. The distri bution of platoons and sections of platoons will thoroughly cover the icounty areas. Each member of the ;force will be assigned to the platoon section nearest his residence. All platoons In each county will work .under the direction of the county offi cer at headquarters. Chiefs of police 'will have command in cities of the 'first class, and township commission- ers will command In townships of the 'first class. Authorized officials will .command elsewhere. The system now Ibeing put into effect applies only to bounties. A variation of the svstem will be made effective in the larger cities. - In cases of trouble requiring mobili sation of one or more platoons head quarters will notify platoon command ers of the number of men needed, the ' time and place of mobilization, and other details. The platoon officers will then pass the word to their men. As far as possible the enrolment frill in clude owners of motor vehicles who will provide emergency transportation. Local disturbances will be handled at tbe discretion of the local units. Primarily the duties of the force will be to assist local authorities in the preservation of order in the vicinity of their homes and to protect life and property from the destruction attend ing internal disorders in war time Men between the ages of twenty-one and sixty years, Ineligible by reason of age or dependent for serrice in the military or naval forces, may enroll, provided they are citizens and resi dents of the State. In good health and ' of good habits. Special care is to be exercised In the selection of platoon officers, the pref erence being for mature men who have bad military, naval or police experi ence. They are to be, chosen for abil ity to command rather than bonpe of personal popularity. Regular enrol ment In writing Is required, and the Indorsement of the county chairman of the local public safety committee and the approval of the director of the department are necessary before ap . plications are submitted to the Gov ernor for appointment. Equipment will consist of a special badge bearing the county name and member's number; a blue and white arm-band showing the State coat of arms for display on the left arm while the wearer is on active dutv; a whistle and. a police "blllle." The badge is to be worn visibly on the left breast during the service call, but at other times is to be worn under the coat. This will give members authority at all times to make arrests should occa ton arise, and will place at the State'B disposal an auxiliary police reserve. , Competent drillmasters will give military instruction and drill the units In riot, fire and other police duties. Brumbaugh Right On Spuds. Governor Brumbaugh 'vas unmerci fully ridiculed for his proclamation, last spring, advising the planting of potatoe peelings, but experimentation has proved he knew better than his critics. One of the best formers In Lehigh is Wilson J. Hartzell, propri eor of "The "Welt-Bote," and he deci ded to act on the advice of the Gov ernor. He planted an acre with peel ings which turned out to the best the leBt in that section. Counties Seeking Abolition.

Farmers of the northeastern part of the State won't sell off their crops so quickly this year as last, but will hold their supply for a rise in the market after the early yield is disposed of. Interviews with the produce men ot Hazleton indicate there will not be such a big crop as was expected in the retail or wholesale price of pota toes this year, despite the greatly In creased crop. The demands of the war are such that shippers expect quota tions to hold up at least around the $1.50 figure. Tubers are now bringing $2 a bushel. The Berwick plant of tne American Car & Foundry Company will manu facture 42,000 galvanized smokestacks for the Government cantonment camps and 6,000 iron collars for the stacks.

TROOPS But One Commissioner Favors Sending Them. ALL THE REST DISSAPPR0VE Organization and Encouragement, Not Men, Russia's Needs, In the Opinion Of a Majority Of the Commissioners. Washington. Emphatic disapproval of the suggestion that American troops be sent to the eastern front was brought home by nil except one of the members of the American mission to Russia. It was authoritatively stated that Charles Edward Russell Is the only commissioner who believes It desir able to. put soldiers from the United States in Russia and thut the others are convinced that their presence would be detrimental rather than help ful to the armies of the new demo cracy. Elihu Root and his associates on the mission lunched with Secretary Lansing and told him more of their experiences and conclusions. Their written report, submitted to President Wilson, probably will not be madtr public. Organization and encouragement, and not nen, it was explained, are Russia's ne'-ds in the opinion of the majority of the commissioners. Ten Million Under Arms. With 10,000,000 men under arms, they think Russia requires no more soldiers, particularly she does not need a few thousand strange soldiers, speaking Hn unfamiliar tongue, draw ing better pay and eating better food than her own men. As an aid to ac tual fighting, it was pointed out, the small number of American troops that could be maintained in Russia would be of little or no value. Lending assistance to the men now In the field rather than putting more men there to drain the already scant supplies Is the duty of this country, the commissioners feel. Rolling stock for the railroads to carry supplies and equipment to the native soldiers and the supplies themselves are the real requirements and they will grow. Both Russia and Roumanian forces will need supplies and equipment worse next winter than they do today, and, of course, the transportation problems then will be greater also. Agitators Hired By Germans. Of the greatest Importance the com missioners say is constant encourage ment from citizens and the newspa pers of the United States. Anti American propagandists, headed by former residents of this country and now financed by German money, are seeking to paint Americans In the blackest shade and thus discourage Russians from accepting their good offices. The story of the origin of 1his extraordinary propaganda is vouched for by every member of the commis sion. Shortly after the outbreak of the revolution, it is declared, the propagandists, composed chiefly of Socialists favorable to "abolishing, all present forms of government and es tablishing without delay rule by the brotherhood of inan, returned to their native land and began berating the United States and its people. Ger mans, quick to see the advantage of controlling these agitators, began sup plying them with money, and today, flush with wealth, they are going through Russia spreading the most vicious canards.

GOVERNORS ARE SO NOTIFIED Will Bring Strength Of Regular Army Up To 1,000,000 Exemption To Be Denied Men Whose Relatives Will Support Dependents. . Washington. The first one-third of the quota of 687,000 men drafted for Army service under the Selection Bill, will bo called to the colors September 1, and sent to training camps between September 1 and September 5. This information has been communicated to the governors of all states by Provost Marshal General Crowder. More than 200,000 men of the selec tive draft forces will be called to the colors September 1, to go immediately to their divisional training canton ments. This will bring the strength of the United States Army on that date up to practically 1,000,000 men. Brigadier General Crowder, provost marshal general, dispatched the fol lowing telegram to the governors of rAie itates cautioning them ,to make certain that the first one-third of their quota of the first Increment of regis tered men is ready in time: "New regulations governing mo bilization and the certification of men from distrlot boards to adjutants gen eral will be mailed to you. In the meantime, local boards should certify to district boards daily those who have been called and who have not been exempted or discharged either because they failed to file any claim or be cause their claim had been decided adversely. "Strict compliance with this rule is necessary since, on September 1, the War Department will call for not to exceed one-third of the quota from each state to be entra'ned for mobilization camps between Septem ber 1 and September 5. Unless we wish to be put in a position of not furnishing men as fast as the War De partment Is ready to receive them, each state should have accumulated by September 1 a minimum of one third of Its quota not exempted or discharged. This can only bo attained if local boards certify these lists up with great expedition." INDIAN UPRISING QUELLED. Forest Ranges and Ranchers Check Scnchat Trouble. Globe, Ariz.

SEPTEMBER AID'S TRY THE 615 MASK Will Bs Put Through the Gas house Training. SAFETY IN THE PRECAUTIONS Only By Skilful and Rapid Adjust ment Of the Mask Can Protection Ba Assured Mask Must Fit Perfectly. American Training Camp in France. The issunnte of Fiench gas masks to the 'American noldiers has brought them a little neuer to the realization of their proximity to real warfare. The men are looking forward to the gas experiments with the greatest pos sible Interest us giving a touch of ad venture to their training. When the so-called "gas-house" Is completed the men will be put through a mixture of a deadly vnpor several times stronger than will ever be encountered upon the field of battle. Some German prisoners have claim ed that in their training they have en dured periods of from five to ten min utes In a gas mixture 50 times as strong as could possibly be maintained in an open-air attack. The men are put through these Intense mixtures to demonstrate to them -that with proper care and, use of the-ir equipment they cannot be hurt by any gas likely to be encountered in the front line trenches. Must Be Careful. It is a most important branch of the modern training of a soldier' that he should be convinced that there are many methods of effectively dealing with the deadliest terrors of latter day warfare; that careless, slovenly and unheeding soldiers are the ones first to succumb. It is even demon strated 1o the soldiers that the ter rifying liquid fire can be avoided ex cept in most extraordinary circum stances, such a being caught in a tunnel or in a dugout with the enemy in such n position that he can pour flames through the entrances. In training the Americans regard ing gas the greatest weight is to be laid on demonstrating to each man the value of his protective appliance and seeing that he is fully Instructed in its proper use. He will be made to realize, however, that only by skilful and rapid adjustment of the mask can protection be assured, and that it shall be a daily task with him to s.e that his appliance Is in good condition. Fit must be assured, for otherwise the gas penetrates through every small hole and attacks the eyes and mouth, so that In a short time the man Is put out of action. Lectures on gas are being arranged first for the oflicers, then for the men, for In gas training officers have to go through Identical drills and experi ences. Ten seconds will be the out Bide limit allowed for the adjustment of helmets after the gas alarm has been sounded. U. S. TO READJUST WAGE RATES.

BUYING PRIVILEGE TO ALLIES Co-Ordination Of American and Allied Purchases Will Be One Of the First Questions To Be Settled. Washington. The new War In dustries Board held its first conference with President Wilson Monday and took up in general the problems It must face in the purchase of war sup plies for this government and the Allies. The President Indicated his idea of the board's functions. One of the points decided was that the Allies of the United States should be given the Bame advantages in the purchases of war materials as this country enjoys. Members of the board are: Frank Scott, Bernard M. Itaruch, Hugh Frayne, Robert S. Brookings, L. S. Lovett, Ueutenunt Colonel Palmer E. Pierce and Reur Admiral Frank F. Fletcher. Secretary Daniels nlso at tended the conference. The question of co-ordinatlngAmerl-can and allied purchases will be one of the first to bo taken up by the board. Allied purchases soon will be made by Bernard Baruch, who is to be designated by the allied governments as their buying commissioner. At the same time he will be chulrman of a purchasing commission for the Ameri can government to be formed of mem bers of the War Board, with Herbert Hoover as a member in charge of food purchases. Officials believe that ultimately a system may be evolved under which one man will do all the American and allied buying, members of the War Board serving as advisers. Legisla tion would be required, however, be fore the government departments could delegate purchases to any person out side of their organizations. For the present American purchases will be negotiated by the buying com mission, but contracts for the Army and Navy will be signed by their rep resentatives on the War Board. Ship ping Board purchases probably will be made by the buying commission Itself, as there is no legal obstacle. The board faces a considerable problem in obtaining supplies for the Allies at the same price paid by the American government. Already the proposal has brought protests from manufacturers and producers who have agreed to sell to this government at prices lower than the market. LUMBER MUST GO STRAIGHT. Hauling It Around Robin Hood's Barn Held Unlawful. Washington.
