Some uneasiness has been felt that the new draft measure extending the age limits from 1H to 45 may cripple some essential line of business, par ticularly the coal industry. It is gen erally believed, however, that the measure will benefit eertain classes of work, as it will glvo the president the power to exempt necessary labor from war duty, as the muii who mines coal is helping to win the war the same as tho man who is fightinjj at the tront.
