NT EXAMINER IS INTERViEVl As a result of the purpo.-c of ih War Department to complete demobilization of the national ar.ny at the earliest possible moment, th discharge of soldlfrs. sa'lors and marines, has been ntora rapid, during the past month tlia at any time in six months, it was stat-e-i by H.J Iern.'r. exam'ner in ch.i:l-'e of the Hamrr.or.i1 Free Kiiployment office ai;d d'.r", tor o t'the bureau for find 'r-S suitii'oU playiner.t for former w-r-te m?n . Thi- n-.rans that the employment situation i? directly affected by an unusual surplus of r r0 e.-s.onal terhn'rai and sk'.!l?d workers, who have constituted the unas of the army last to be d mob:i:z-:.l . It means the it-creased re-fponibil'-tv of every community to provide employment for the I;te comers of tho.-e who were taken ft o:n rac time employment into the h : :r. y . Mr. Demer sa j ":t is the policy of the .-.nte and Federal Governments, both as affects the ir Department and the Department of Labor The I nited States Employment Service being a bureau in the Df-partment of Labor and the Indiana Free Employment Service to urg- upon every community its full responsibility to tho men who have wot n 'lie America!', unf"'iiu.

It if doub.'y import art that there s.-ould be no lf-tting up of the patriotic effort that this community has '(eti making for and in behalf of the Uncharged men. The time is not far c stant when the requirements of pro-5.-loua! and industrial life for men vf the capacity of these late comers, will be far in exces of the supply. F. e-y community as a matter of pracI ca! business, Srt aril of commercial sr ' fit-"mess, it" the business appeal Is insufficient, should see to t that these men are properly nd satisfactorily placed at at home. They are valuable for more reasons than that they provide a special skill. They have been throutrh two years of army disr p'iir.r. They have sane and definite ldear both ndustriiii'.y and politically. The former soldiers are a force for progress and grod ?ourn:iiftit that must be reckoned w.t'r. . This community can ill afford to lose the citizenship and the benefit of the example of a single ex-service man. There is something more than mere sentiment in this problem of fmd.ng - j:-able emplo ment for former soldier sailors and marines. Far sighted b-ism-:-ss men and: employers know this, but they are prone, sometimes to forget the practical elements of the s mat on .

PACKERS COMMENT ON TRACE REPORT WASHINGTON". Auk. ;i5. Recommendations for the establishment of a government monopoly in a'l, r t'igeratoi and livestock cars, made by the Federal Trade Commission today in a "private carline report. " to President AViison, brought the following comment Iron Thos. E. "Wilson, of Chicago, chairman of the Inst it r.te of Ame rican Meat Packers i "The packers arc willing t submit the justice of the Federal Trade Commission demands in its report 01 private car lines to the common sense f the American public. After an in vestigation by men experienced in transportation questions the trade commission presented a report diametrically opposed to that handed down by the Interstate Commerce Commission composed of men trained in railroad work, after a six year study of the ejuestion the Interstate Commerce Commission reports say. "An important part of the interstate commerce of the country is transportation in privately owned cars. It i3 in the interest of the owners, carriers am public that their operation should be continued under such rules and regulation as will insure their efficient hn. ling without discrimination against an: shipper or particular description of traffic. The system of the use and supply of private cars that r.ow exists tannot be at ence and radically changed without serious consequences to shippers, carriers and the public." There are admittedly too few refrigerator cars. Greater mileage of packer cars was possible because a lead was waiting for every car 065 days a year. Spread the use of the packer-owned cars anions shippers over the entire country and mileage will reduce with a consequent increase in the cost of meat foods or a necessary reduction in live animal pricey. It would seem that if a real solution is sought it might be found ry some agency building enough additional cars to meet the deficiency. The packer cannot buy more animals than he can market a smeat. If cars are not available his purchasing power is lessened. If railroader the government should plan to ice the cars at the start such cars probably could not be loaded the same day because of delays in s Itching. Thus there would be a waste of ice and time and it still would be necessary to ice again at the point of loading. Government operation of the railroads ha? not been such as to warrant the putiic looking with very great equanimity on the suggestion that its food be handled by the same or a similar agency." F TO MEET AT tSPECIL TO THE TIMES! CROWX POINT, Ind., Aug. 26. If the meeting of District No. 1 held at Plymouth August 22nd. in the interest of the Indiana Federation of Farmers Associations, is any criterion this district bids fair to be Number One in every respect.

Of course the majority were from Plymouth and vicinity as the district meeting was held in connection with th-s Marshall county annual picnic, but larga and influential deb-gat ions were present from all of the eight counties. Mr. Brown's address was a masterly argument in favor of an effective organisation of the farmers of Indiana. Mr. .I.'A. Warren, of Kouts. district director, also madt a strong and an interesting address. The following schedule of 'county conventions was arranged: Marshall, at Plymouth, August 27.

On Both Sides of the Continent 52,000 Miles Per Tire As far apart as the distance that separates them are the road conditions in central California and Massachusetts. And yet, with all the diversity of road changes and stiff grades Goodrich De Luxe Truck Tires on trucks in these states have amassed the incredible mileage of 52,000 miles per tire and are still serving. In Massachusetts this splendid record was made on a 6-ton coal truck operated by th Lajcie Coal Co., of Lowell. The vory nnme of the commodity hauled and the size of the tri'ck gives evidence of th? bruising character of the service. Out west, in Oakland. Cal., these Goodrich De " Luxe Tires mastered equally severe condi-' tions. The track was 2. 5-ton unit, the operator, the Shell Gasoline Company. Such magnificent service achievements under radically different conditions, testify vividly to the mighty, durability and economy of these De Luxe Tires. The very apparent possibilities in these tires should, for economy's sake, induce you to try them.
