DISTRICT BOARDS GIVEN
AUTHORITY TO DECIDE
List of Industrial Classifications
Announced by
Bar uch.
Washington.?The now priorities
classification of industry announced
yesterday 1 ?y the War Industries
Poaid will not bind district draft
boards in determining deferred classification
on occupational grounds of
men between the ayes of eighteen
and forty-five years who registered
Thursday.
The hoard./ may determine that
other industries are necessary, but in.
granting deferred classification. th?\\
must satisfy themselves that the industry
is necessary and further that
the individual registrant is
to the industry.
These tact were diselosed by Provost
Marshal (den. (dr<wder's plans
for applying a more liberal occcupational
exemption scheme in clarifying
the new registrants, which was
made public to-day, together with the
complete text of the amended draft
regulations and a supplement to the
questionnaire explaining to r? gistrants
the sections in which facts relating
to their classification should
be noted.
Plan for Appeals.
The i-cgulations provide that the
Advisory Committees of three to each
District Hoard, one to be named by
the Department of Labor, one by the
Department of Agriculture and the
third by the board itself, may introduce
at hearings on deferred classification
the War Industries Board
priorities list, but adds that such lists
shall not be regarded as binding upon
the District Board.
Detailing the method boards are to
follow, the regulations say a registrant
shall he considered entitled to
txempton only when "completely engaged"
in an occupation the boards
class as essential, when his removal
would result in substantial damage
to the enortprise, and when "the
available supply of persons competent
in the capacity is such that th'> registrant
cannot be replaced without direct.
substantial, materal loss and
detriment to the effective operation,
of the enterprise."
j The regulations notify boards that
they should consider the length of
time a registrant has been in employment,
and become convinced, before
granting his claim that he "is
not now .-.o engaged for the primary
purpose of avoiding military s?- vice."
Industrial ( lassii mat ion.
1 n general, the 1 gulations fix ti r
place of a necessary workman in i
necessary occuputoin in C!as- II., th
place of an < Xpert <> assistant man
agcr or divisional head in Class 111.

COTTON MARKETING
CLUB METjATUROAY
Tlwu'o U'iia moot ino' of tlm L'nn- '
way Cotton Marketing Club at the!
court house Saturday at which a
number of interested farmers as well
I as many of the members of the club
j were present. At this meeting- some,
I of the problems which make it ditfi-1
! cult for this club to come under the I
'state warehouse system of marketing
cotton were discussed. Chief1
I t
among these, was the problem o;
storage, but it is hoped that a final
solution may be had whereby thi-j
club may be able to come up to tin
'specific instructions required.
| The need of owning and operating
a warehouse of th< it* own has longbeen
felt among the farmers, but
never has that need been felt so keen
: ly as at present, and from the sentiment
of the farmers as expressed at
I this meeting- it is evident that they
I are now ready to lend materially for
! the construction of such a warehouse,
where they may be able to sell their
tobacco, or store their own cotton or
fertilizer whenever it is necessary
for them to do so. Short talks regarding*
the necessity of a building- of
this kind were made by Mess. R. 15.
Glasgow, R. O Hanson, J. W. Alford,
H. L. B. Jordan, and others and
the movement was favored generally.
While this is a most difficult time,
perhaps, to build it was suggested
that each former present consider
hmiself one of a committee to interest
and urge every other farmer with
whom he may come in contact to be
present at a similar meeting to be
held at the court house Saturday
Sept. 21st, at two o'clock P .M., when

GERMANY LIKELY I
TO INSTALL REFORMS
London.- A dispatch to tho Daily
Kows from Rotterdam today says
that tho present feeling in Germany!
is ono almost of despair and that j
th xre are good grounds for assorting i
that the Government, fully realizing'
this, is now busy discussing expedients
for rehabiliting itself and reviving
tile spirits of tho people.
It intends to reinforce its peace of j
tensive abroad by such action at
home as will, ii hopes, temporarily,
satisfy the internal demands and at
iho same time deprive of its sting
the Entente criticism that the Germans
are mere slaves in the hands of
| the Hohenzollerns and the Junker
j caste. A usually well informed authority
says that steps of a very decided
democratic nature are to be taken
shoitly in Germany.
o ?
As the war advances, other things
must halt, but only halt so much as
is necessary under the circumstances.
Succeed with the war and then keep
up business as much as possible besides,
but let business go if this
i seems necessary to win the war.

submarine attacks
american convoy
Comes In Among Flotilla Off
French Coast and Daringly
Launches Torpedo.
The American steamship Dora,
merly under tin; Austrian flag, was
torpedoed and sunk on Sept. 4, approximately
400 miles off France, as
the result of an attack on' a cargo
convoy. The crew was saved. ,
The steamship was struck at 6.*?i0 I
o'clock in the morning. A calm sea.
enabled all the crew of eighty-five to
escape. They were picked, up by
destroyers.
The submarines daringly took up a
position about 150' yeards from the
starboard side of the convoy column
and about an equal ?tistance from tlia
nearest destroyer and fired at the
Dora, which was heading a column
of three vessels. ?
The outlook, reported1 seeing, a periscope
just after the wake of the tor- >
pedo was discovered, but nothing,
more was seen of the submarine. The
torpedo struck aft, throwing the
cargo of army supplies as high as, .
the mast tops, hut only one member
of the crew was hurt..
The escorting vessels immediately
dropped numerous depth charges
whore it was believed the torpedo
came from. Owing to the speed with
which the warships acted anil the
proximity of the U boat, it is considi
ered possible that the submarine was
'either destroyed or badly damaged.
I This attack is somewhat different
from the recent methods of L" boats
iii firing on lone vessels and giving
no attention to protected convoys, and
it shows more reckless daring in. an
effort to . sink convoyed boats than j
has been usual during the past few
months. m I
