THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1917. RAILROADS MUST :, APPLY EMBARGO Shipments of Food, Fuel or Metals for Export Must Be Accompanied by Fed eral License. Washington, July 13. An enilar$p effective immediately agaitm all shipments intended for export of , commodities named in President Wil on's recent export proclamation, ex cept when bill of lading is presented with a federal license number fur nished or authorized by the export council at Washington, was ordered today by the American Railway asso ciation's commission on car service. The notice to all railroads follows: "Pursuant to the proclamation of the president of the United States, dated July 9, barring certain exports except under federal license, railroads are directed to place telegraphic em bargo effective immediately against all shipments of coal, coke, feed, grain, flour and meal therefrom, fod- dcr, meat and fats, fuel oils, kerosene, gasoline, pig iron, steel billets, ship plates , (structural - shapes), scrap iron and steel, ferro mangenese fer tilizers, arms, ammunition, explosives, consigned, reconsigned or to be re consigned for export, except when bill of lading presented with federal license number furnished or author ized by export council at Washington and according to announcement of Department of Commerce, together with permit number authorized by the port delivery road. "Arrangements have been made un der which all shipments consigned to points in Canada can go forward as heretofore, special licenses covering same having been issued through the customs service. It is suggested that port lines protect against accumula tions at ports by placing such em . bargo as necessary against cars in ' transit. "All port lines should immediately , inaugurate permit systems covering all export traffic." ASKS NEBRASKA ' FOR 8,185 MEN ON INITIAL DRAFT (Continued From Par Ons.) be taken first If it be number 10, for example, it will mean that the man in each district "holding local : card number 10 will be called for ex amination before any of the other men in that district. - The second number drawn will de termine what man in each district is to be taken second, and so on, as long as men are needed. Those not needed for the first war army will retain their positions on the' list and these positions will ' determine the order of their liability when they are . . needed. ' " ' Drawing to Be Public. The drawing" will .be public and " each' number will be announced as it is drawn. At the offices of most lo cal exemption boards the i red ink number of the registrants already are posted, 0 that registrant! may . inform themselves beforehand of their respective numbers. Obviously there will be high num bers drawn for which there are no corresponding registrants in small districts. The smallest district in the country it known to have but 187 registrants and the largest about 7, 000. Whenever a number beyond the total in any given district comes out it will operate as a blank for that district. Thus if the theory works out evenly the larger districts will be constantly assessed in execs of the ' smaller on a pro rata baats corre sponding to their size. The drawing prob-bly will be held during the .cck. of July 23. Only twenty-four states have completed the organization of their exemption boards and lie posting of red ink numbers. The drawing cannot be held until all states are complete so that no juggling of numbers wilt be possi ble. Drawing at Wtr Office. The drawing probably will be in the big reception room of the War de partment adjoining Secretary Baker'a , office.-- , Officials are unwilling to disclose the details, but the suggestion which seems to have the most support that the numbers, stamped on thin slips of paper be inclosed in non-transparent gelatin capsules and placed in a large gjass, vessel to be removed one at a time. . . The number ot capsules which would be necessary will be equal, to the total in the, largest district. Thus under the present arrangement seven thousand numbers would have to be drawn. Information so far available indicated that the drawing will work out in this way: - There are 4,550 exemption districts. , When the first number is drawn say number 10 it will be recorded as unmber 1, with the serial number (ten) following. The record would show that the men whose cards bear the serial number ten in each of 4,550 exemption districts would be first to appear before the exemption boards. Presumably the announcement made at the drawing would be No. 1, serial No. 10. To Protect Exempted Men. , To prevent embarrassment among those who are exempt, the War de partment has decided to give with each exemption certificate a bronze - badge bearing the inscription "Ex empted U. S." It is desired to pre vent those exempted from any sus picion of being slackers. , The law specifies that exemptions ara not permanent unless the cause for which they are granted is per manent For instance, if a man should be exempted on the first call because of a dependent relative and that relative should die or become self supporting before the second call, the registrant would be liable for service under the second call It will be the duty of the exemption boards to keep watch of such cases and recall men who have been passed over o;:ce, but whose status may have changed be fore the second call is made. , r.nftinar hKat In Gift.

Company K's Eagle Of Fort Crook May Scream in France Centlnoed From Pf On.) nurses and ambulance carriers. It is a common sight to see "wounded" lying about on the hills near the hos pital, to be rescued by members of the corps. They are lifted onto stretchers and given a jolting ride across the fields and over the fence tops as a sample of what is to come later. Taking a machine gun apart blind folded and putting it together, then firing it in the dark is one lesson learned by every member of the ma chine gun company of the Fourth Ne braska. This is a popular company, for here is a chance for individual work. "In most companies the soldier is but one of the whole unit" said Cap tain Fellers of the machine gun com pany. "In a machine, gun company each soldier is so trained that at a moment's notice he may occupy any position, do any work. There is now splendid chance for promotion in ma chine gun work, for those who qualify now will be in demand as officers and instructors soon." Fourteen more men are needed to complete the company at Fort Crook. - The machine guns are light, weigh ing with the tripod but thirty pounds. two men arc required to shoot one gun, four to load. With this gun more than 4U0 men may be killed per min ute. It is also used in aeroplane, work and members of the company will get this experience. Holding the exact office fillled by his father in the Spanish-American war, is the distin'ion of Captain J. L. Killian of iilair, who heads Com pany K, Fourth Nebraska, now it Fort Crook. Captain J. N. Killian, the father, led the same company of the same regiment all through the Spanish-American war. : His record was praised and his son is anxious to be in action that he may follow in his father's footsteps. "there are no slackers in Company K." said Captain Killian Thursday. "Four of them failed to pass the hnal examinations and they were the heart-broken ones. We have a fine bunch of boys. Many are college men, all are high school graduates and the sons of the leading families in and about Pawnee and Blair. All are chock-full of enthusiasm.'' Iri the machine sfun comnanv are two full-blooded Indians, Caryl and Pierre Picotte. They were students at Bellevue college before their en listment this spring. Edward Coons of Company K. Fourth Nebraska, was in Wyoming sixty-fie miles from railroad when the call to join the company came. So anxious was he to answer that he made the triy. thtough eight feet of snow at once to get to his company. Sightseers visiting Fort Crook find themselves stopped suddenly as they near a long. low. brick building, in the outskirts of the reservation, This is the commissary buildincr where the supplies are kept, and extra guard isN placed around it now. No automo biles are allowed to pass it after 6 o'clock in the evening. Co-operative Packing Plant for Huron, S. D. Huron. S. D.. July 13. (Special.)

(AworUtrd Prcu War Summary.) General Korneiloffs Russian ar mies, which already have driven a vast wedge into the Teutonic lines in eastern Galicia, appear to be at the crucial point of their campaign for Lemberg. . , Having crossed the Lomnica river, behind which the Austro-German forces planted themselves in their re treat from the Halicz region, the Rus sians have opened up the possibility of turning tbe whole Teutonic line northward along the Zlota-Lipa. Great Battle m Progress. Desperate attempts may be ex pected on the part of the defenders of eastern Galicia, however, to pre vent the continuation of this menac ing advance beyond the Lomnica, and the battles now in progress may be vital in determining the fate of Lem berg and all the eastern Galician ter rain. Today's statement from Petrograd shows that in Wednesday's fighting, which resulted in the capture of Ka lusz, the Russians took 850 prisoners, chiefly Germans, and five heavy guns, besides ten machine guns.
