United States army for court-martial.
Assistant Federal Attorney Har-
wood, who investigated the cases, said
he believed many names in the list ap
pear there because of the failure of
enlisted men, some of whom died or
were killed during the war, to notify
their draft boards of their enlist
ments.
"These men or their relatives should
communicate with me at once," Mr.
Harwood said. "Any service man who
is confused as to whether he sent no
tification of his enlistment to his draft
board should not wait, until arrested
before clearing up the matter, a3 :t
will work delay in the courts and in
terfere with the expeditious punish
ment of the genuine service dodgers."

Florenee. Ala. Congressman E. B.
Almon is in receipt of a telegram
which announced that the president
had formally set aside $4,000,000 In ad
dition to the appropriations' previously
made by Congress for the construction
of Wilson Dam.
The $4,000,000 is out of funds which
had not been used in othe war work
for which it had been appropriated.
The citizens here are glad that this
amount could be transferred to the
Wilson Dam construction fund, as the
monies appropriated would possibly
have been used by the end of the
year and work on the big job would
have awaited the action of Congress
for further funds. The work at Wil
son Dam is progressing satisfactorily,
and many visitors come from all over
the country to see the big job, as it is
now reaching a very interesting stage
of construction.
Also funds were made available
just before adjournment of Congress
for the completion of certain work at
United States Nitrate Plant No. 2 at

Campaign to Prevent Bubonic Plagua

General Cumming.

and renewing his warning regarding
the introduction of plague from Medi
terranean ports, which are known to
be infected. Surgeon General Cum
ming urged communities throughout
the country, and especially along the
coast, to inaugurate rat-extermination
campaigns.
"Bubonic plague is primarily a dis
ease of rccients, especially rats," said
Gen. Cumming. "and the disease can
be controlled effective y by measures
directed against the rat. The extermi
nation of rats also is to be desired be
cause of the tremendous economic
damage they cause."

KING IS AFTER PROFITEERS
George Notifies Tradesmen That Con
tracts Will Not Be Renewed at
Present Prices.
London. King George has given
practical support to s the price cutting
movement in England by refusing to
renew any contracts for goods or serv
ices at present prices.
The king has notified sellers of
bread, flour, soap, candles and coal,
which are supplied to Buckingham
Palace under contracts renewable ev
ery three months, that he will not
continue to do business with the same
firms unless they grant a 10 per cent
reduction in prices.
The same decision affects laundry
work, the king having demanded a re
duction in the charges for washing
the linens of the members of the royal
household. "
If Attempt Made to Carry Out Threat,
Board Will Allocate American
Ship to Handle Business
from All Ports.
Washington. Warning foreign in
terests not to attempt interference
with the development of the American
merchant marine, Chairman Benson of
the shipping board declared that the
board was determined to build up an
A 9 ' .
American mercnant marine as con- I
templated uy the Jones shipping act, !
despite threats and propaganda by !
such interests, to defeat the law. I
"The United States," said Admiral J
Benson, "is in earnest in its efforts
to place within the ownership by 1
United States citizens the control of j
at least a part of its traffic in imports j
and exports. If it should by any pos- '
Eible means be held that the depart- j
ments of the government lack such
authority as will insure their being :
able to protect American interests in !
such control, additional authority will j
be asked by the administration and J
will undoubtedly be granted by con- j
gress.
"Foreign carriers and those in the i
United States interested more in for- i
eign than American institutions will j
do well to "let sleeping dogs lie'."
Admiral Benson's warning was i
sounded in a talk to representatives j
of Pacific coast chambers of com- I
merce and trade 'bodies and American
railroads who have been disunited
by threats of foreign carriers to di- :
vert business from American ports on '
the Pacific coast because of the sec- '
tion of the merchant marine act per- ;
mitting a preferential rate over car- ,
ners witnm tne united states on
merchandise moving in export and
Import in American vessels.
Such a threat, the chairman said,
Is "futile and Idle."
"If such a threat is sincere and the
attempt is made to so divert the
business." Admiral Benson continued,
"the shipping board will allocate
American ships to move the business.
The shipping board and the Interstate
Commerce Commission will follow
this action by other steps which
would further protect the interests of j and cUI wiu-r!
the United States against such for
eign efforts to defeat the purposes of
the merchant marine act."
"Nothing x)uld more surely bring
about the enforcement of this section
of the law than adoption by foreign
carriers of their threat to divert bus
iness from American ports."
