The organization of the State councils of defense in general follow in the lines of the Council of National Defense. Like the National Council they are sub-di vided into committee dealing with various branches of defense work military, transportation, finance, food, publicity. Industries aj)d labor, minerals, niedieaj science, legal, educational. Many of tha State societies issue their own priodic-a!a. and publicity is maintained by the circulation of reports and bulletins and the aid of many public speakers. in the nature of things many of the individual activities of the various States are of necessity to themselves alone; but in a number of cases they have been found a most effective agency for the completion of plans of nation-wldo importance. Thus, the iWar Department ha.s benefited by the knottiest problem? by the Individual States; and the Department of Labor has been materially enriched by cooperation with State organizations. As an agricultural Instance of how the Section cn Cooperation with States serves as a clearing house of Ideas end suggestions, take the case of Rhode Island. That Slate established a? an emergency measure a loan-fund of fifty thousand dollars which vas placed at the disposal of its farmers for the purchase of seed. If it is found that this investment returned a corresponding surplus In its harvests the Section .on Cooperation with States will pass the idea along to every other State for its consideration in connection with next spring's planting.

That the spilling of salt Is unlucky is perhaps the commonest of all superstitious beliefs, anl prevails in the kitchen as well as at the table. There are Scottish households where salt is still held In such reverence that the saltcellar used at the family table is Invariably kept standing on the family Bible. If You Think THE TIMES Is Doins Its Bit Your Support Is Always Welcome. for another, and the plan may be adopted by the Nation. Revealii g the activity of this mode of intercommunication and cooperation between the States comes a recently made report which presents a mos interesting, withal minute, account of the organization of each State council of defense, wltha record of the results of work sent in by each to headquarters. Such a record of concrete accomplishment must be of incalculable value in tho way of suggestion to every State council of defense receiving It. This report mention the fart that some 3 ft y -two bulletin. and Information circulars furnishing details and instructions concerning as many branches of war work, have been sent out from the national headquarters. Nearly every State reporting a full list of their committees to headquarters has a military committee of some sort- In several States there is more than one committee dealing with military affairs. As an example. Massachusetts has the following committees with military functions: Recruiting, naval forces, land forces, military equipment and supplies, mobilization and concentration caaips, horses, trucks and motor cars. The Ma-ssachu setts council has also rendered valuable service in organizing under the Navy Department a naval reserve force and a naval reserve flying corps. Maryland reports a military census and a preparedness committee; and the State of Maine likewise. New York Is another State strong in its military preparedness. Train Boys To He Master Marine. Previous to the war both New York and Massachusetts had well organized nautical nchools and a nautical ship. These schools take healthy boys between the ago of sixteen and twenty years and give them a complete course in the various subjects relating to the navigation of a merchant ship. The boys on graduation are able to qualify aa master marines and chief engineers. Rhode Island Is ono of the States reporting aa effort to provide adequate facilities for transporting men and supplies through their States. "Little Rhody" is Intensely active in Its war work, and as a transportation item it has listed and enrolled the automobiles and auto truck of the State and i their orsfZJiiz-l'. S J- Jhey Jriay

Vermont and Arizona have made something of a special study of their transportation facilities for troop moving and both have recommended improvements in cars. Both have devised a seemingly practicable and simple scheme of converting daycoaches into comfortable sleeping quarters for the troops en route. The defense council cf the State of Maryland has gone largely into the matter of transportation, the three principal railroads in the State each contributing a flrs-t class coach equipped and manned through the efforts of the Baltimore commission on transportation. This Sate has also completed the equipment of a ho.Tpital train. In oonnec-tion with the transportation of food, fuel and other resources. New Hampshire. Rhode Island.
