MAN POWER BILL
EXTENDING DRAFT AGE
IS PASSED BY HOUSE
cation as a means of further comb
ing the deferred classes for additional
men for active service.
Chairman Dent, of the house mili
tary committee read a letter today
from Secretary Baker, in which the
lutter set forth his objections to the
XlcKenisio amendment, which was
defeated yesterday and which pro
vided for deferring; the call of youths
from 18 to 20 years. Mr. Baker said
he believed the amendment would ser
iously impair the ability of the war
department to get the men in ac
cordance with the military program.
Senators Fall of New Mexico, Smith
of South Carolina, New, of Indiana,
ininounced in the senate their support
of the bill. Opposition to drafting
boys under 21 years of age was voiced
ty Senator Varrlarnan of Mississippi,
who said if the boys are to be called
he favored extending the maximum
draft ago to include men of sixty
years-

Answering arguments of opponents
of the plan to lower draft ages to
IS, I Senator Chamberlain called the
senate's attention to the fuct that Sen
atois Martin of Virginia and Bank
head of Alabama, entered the confed
erate army and Senator Nelson of
Minnesota, and Senator Ouff of West
Virginia, entered the union army at
is years of age or younger. Senator
Warren of Wyoming, enlisted when
17 years old, he added. Former Sen

16 years of age, Ailexander Hamilton
was in the continental army at 19.

ed States government will never again
have to depend upon Chilean nitrates
for the manufacture of its explosives
One of the greatest of modern
power projects, that will furnish the
power to take nitrogen from the air
and "fix'1 it by the cyanamld process
to make nitric acid and ammonium
nitrate for war use. is under way at
Muscle shoals, on the Tennessee river
in northern Alabama.
The nirate plant is the outcome of
a ten years' fight to secure watei
power development at this point. The
government is spending $.10,oo0.uuo
to develop the 6H0.000 available hors..i
power, and with it produce! nitrates
from the air.
The once sleepy little town of Shef
field and its sister towns of Florence
and Tuscumbia look like the site ol
an army cantonment. Twenty thou
sand men are at work. Housing struc
tures have already been erected to
take care of IS. 000, and more are go
ing up as rapidly as lumber and nail;,
and man power can construct them.
The muddy waters of tho Tennessee
river are filled with barges of stone,
coal and all kinds of material marked

mule teams, their negro drivers nod

river bank.

made in the work. To Immense

The prospect for a large increase in the wheat production this year is
very encouraging-as it is estimated that this years wheat crop will exceed
that of last year by many millions of bushels. Our farmers are to be

The great power project the gov
srnment's life insurance against fu
ture wars calls for the erection of
three dams in tho Tennessee river.
One is a .small one for the control of
lavlgation only. The other two are
giant structures; the larger, known
as Dam No. 2. will be 104 feet high

feet. .
The governments estimate oi too
cost of power development on tne
ti-hnlo nrnlpct show that It will be
less than 1H mills per kilowatt hour
At Niagara Falls the cost of develop
ing electricitv ranges from 1.8 mills
to mora than 3 mills per kilowatt,
hour.
When completed these power plant-;
and the nitrate plants using the
power, will turn out nitric acid and
ammonium nitrate, not only for ex
plosives, but for dyestuffs-and ferti-.
llzer. An American dyestuffs Indus
try forever independent of Germany
will thus be assured. -
What this will mean to the Ameri
can farmers, too. can scarcely be real
ized. Nitrogen is an essential in soils.
Nitrogenous fertilizers have been higr
in cost because the sole source ot
supply for the United suites has been
the Chilean nitrate beds. After the
war. with this great plant In govern
ment ownershin, and the necessity ol
producing nitric acid and ammoniurr

devote much of Us capacity to th
production of fertilizer. This can be
sold at cost to farmers.

a telephone station in the big dwelling

Nymeyer has just finished to be dis

When Major Dean Smith left Carls

suitable landing station were pro

The Carlsbad commercial club
planned a community field day, when
nearly every man in town went out
and worked, or sent a representative,
and the field was grubbed, cleared and
prepared in three half day "bees."
Secretary Mcllvain of the club en

When You Buy Furniture
Po you take into consideration the elements which influence the
price you must pay? Do you look for the dealer who has the
greatest operating expense or the dealer who has the lowest
operating expense, or do you consider the matter of operating expense at all?
If you do not, you are making a grave mistake, for the ' operating expense is
the most important item which the dealer reckons with in making; up his sell
ing price. A low operating expense makes a low selling price.
Since moving into our new quarters at the White Front, between. First , and
Second on West Silver, we have practically cut our operating expense in half,
and now have the lowest of any concern in the city. ' i
It will pay you to get qur prices before buying. '
