Definite Statement Concerning Men in Draft Working For Government To the Editor of the Tribune-News, Cartersville, Ga. .In simple justice to a group of eru es t and patriotic men, I ask your at tention to a few statements of fact. ; The House of Representatives fcdopt i cd an aniendnint to the Food Produc !io act of 1917 forbidding tit payment of salaries under this act to any man who lias been placed in deterred mil itary classification on acocunt of hi,-, "inployntenl by the Department. Much publicity has been given to this am ondinent and it .-fas evoked much newspaper comment. The men de ferred have been denounced as slack ers, and tlte impression is conveyed hat 2,000 clerks in the Department of Agriculture at Washington have been sheltered from military service. The facts are that only 205 men in the District ol Columbia have been deferred classification on the recom mendation of the Department, and of ihese, with the exception of eight ad ministrative assistants performing re sponsible executive work, all are scientific or technical employees en gaged in work of the most important scientific character. Much of this work ■las to do with such vital war activit ies as the development of war gases, the testing of airplane fabrics, etc. Approximately 1700 persons, including county agents, chemists, veterinar ians, meat inspectors, and experts in the various bureaus of the Depart ments, have been placed in deferred classification at the request of the De partment. ’Not one of these men w; s deferred on his own request. The De partment needs a large number of scientific men to replace those who have gone to war or who have been attracted to private employment. For instance, the Bureau of Animal In dustry needs more than 60 veterina rians in its work of meat inspection, without which the health of the sold iers especially and of the civil popula tion generally can not be safeguarded. Let me cite you an instance of what happened in Kansas the other day. ROGERS. Left Over from Last Week.) Mrs. and Mrs. Henry Gaines and Miss Jessie Riggins, of Cassville. were geusts of their relatives, Mrs Riggins and Mr. Louis Wheeler, Sun day. Mr. Frank Young is very ill.

Mr. PPitman .f C - ifr“ville, was the interesting speak*” i the afternoon, the songs uy >.. • little children were greatly enjoyed by those present. Douglas county farmers had jrst org anized for more efficient food produc tion and had hired T. E. Moore, a graduate of the Kansas State Agricul tural College, as county agent. County Agent Moore was confronted with the immediate responsibility of pro viding hands to save the county’s har vest of food crops. He was provided with a motor car, an office was rented, and a stenographer and office assist ant employed. Douglas county farm ers meant business. Then like a bombshell came a card from the Draft Board announcing Moore’s call into military sefvice. Appeals in his be half .were unavailing. Inquiries to the Agricultural College brought the ie sponse that this was the second coun ty farm agent in Kansas to be drafted, and that there appeared nothing to do hut to close up the Douglas County Farm Bureau. Another man able to handle the farm agent’s job was not to be had. So the motor car was stored, the office locked up, the stenographer ind assistant discharged, and now Douglas county, according to a news dispatch, “will not have a farm bu ioau until the Kaiser is licked.’’ I am enclosing a copy of the Weekly News letter of June 19 which contains a recital of further facts on this sub ject. 1 do not know whether you have commented upon the action of the House of Represenatives or not, but I am sure you wish to know the truth. The amendment was introduced on the floor of the House and was adopt ed without committee investigation The Senate Committee made careful investigation by taking elaborate tes timony and going into all the facts, ami as a consequence the members present voted unanimously to kill the amendment. The fact that the Department has been the subject of some heedless and unjust comment is my warrant for addressing you this personal note. Very truly yours, CLARENCE ANSLEV, Assistant Secretary KINGSTON CLUB NOTES Kingston, July 6.—The Woman’s History Club was delightfully enter tained at the home of AJiss Sue Alay son on Thursday afternoon. In the absence of t ie president, Mrs. Emma Sheets presided, calling the meeting to order at three o'clock.

This was followed by a poem ( n Patrotisnv read by Airs. Virginia Irby. The program was concluded by Mrs. Slieats reading an article fr rn die brilliant pen of Mrs. Katherleen Gray Wilson, on "M; Grandmother’s Flower Garden.” calling forth a vivid pen picture of the place where the nelHst memories of her childhood days lingered. , Refreshments having been abolish ed by our club, our hostess regale : ber guests with refreshing iced tea After which a most pleasant social hour was spe B t at this home, so noted | for the genuine hospitality.
