Prisoner Wrecks Dorris Jail in Making Escape (Continued from Page One) of the cell cage and broke through the ceiling, and crawled up into the attic. Feeling his way around there he finally crashed through another place into the closet where the city books are kept, just off the council room which he thorough ly ransacked. Finally he broke out through a front window leaving behind his plumber's card, some small change and his derisive note. Perhaps the note was to focus the attention of the law on places north while he leisurely traveled south. Per haps he had cause to be afraid he might be fingerprinted and have really serious charges lodged against him. At any rate the jail is being strengthened and the damages repaired and a "warm" welcome awaits said drunk if he ever re turns to the environs of Dorris.

"Let us present a united front," Cox said. "Let us say to the world that we are Amer icans and that we mean busi ness." Fish said that he disagreed with the argument that if se lectees were released at the end of the present statutory year of training the army would be dis organized and asked if replace ments could not be made in peacetime how they could be ob tained "under war conditions when casualties may amount to 30 per cent or more?"
