WASHINGTON, June 17.—The
broad and scientific manner in which
Australia is meeting the problem of
repatriating the men who are fighting
in Europe for the liberties of the
commonwealth was described in offi
cial dispatches, as foreshadowing what
the United States must do when the
tide of wounded and incapacitated men
begins to flow westward to this coun
try.
Tw principles were enunciated in
the formulation of the Australian sys
tem of repatriation: First that the
true purpose of repatiration is to se
cure the re-establishment of returned
soldiers in the industrial life of the
community to the fullest extent that
circumstances will permit, and, sec
ond, that, as a soldier abandoned his
civil calling to serve the state, it is
the duty of the state to sustain him
until an opportunity for such re-estab
lishment is assured,
i Sustenance, therefore, will be paid
to men who, after discharge from the
army, are seeking employment or are
being trained in technical schools.
The amounts will vary according to
the the number of dependents, the
maximum payable being three pounds,
six shillings, or approximately fi64<k
Centralized authority is obtained ,'y
the creation of a ministry of repatria
tion, while decentralized administra
tion is assured by the organization of
state boards of seven members each,
two of which will be discharged sol
diers and one a representative of or
ganized labor.
a teature of the vocational training
which is planned will be national work
shops, wherein men whose injuries
preclude the possibility of their ever
becoming sufficiently competent to
earn their living as normal workmen
will be educated to new tasks an.l per
haps employed permanently. The to
tally and permanently incapacitated
will pe provided for in hotels, or al
ternately by special grants supple
mentary to their pensions, if they
prefer to remain with their friends. •
A rental allowance will be paid to
widows with children and incapaci
tated men when such an allowance
will permit the maintenance of a
home.
Widows desiring of learning some
useful trade will be afforded the nec
essary training and sustenance.
Advances of money will be made in
certain cases for the establishment of
small businesses, for tools and for
transit to employment.
Australia also is following the prac
tice of the United States after ;he
Civil war of granting land to returned
soldiers. Major Blezzard, who took
part in the historic landing at Gallip
oli, and was severely wounded, has
been allowed 700 acres near Ecliuca.

COBB MAY ENLIST AT 1
END OF 1918 SEASON
Ty Cobb hus put a quietus on the
persistent rumors which have been go
ing the rounds to the effect that he
was adjusting his personal affairs with
the idea of enlisting before the sea
son was over.
The rumors originated In Pittsburgh,
where an army officer stated that
Cobb had decided to enlist and that it
was only a question as to when he
could arrange his business matters
with that end in view.
Cobb says that he intends to stick
to the Tigers this season but that he
was thinking of enlisting at the close
Of the baseball year, but had not reach
ed a decision at this point.
He Intimated that he had been of
fered a commission in the motor-me
chanics corps but could not accept be
cause of his business affairs. It is be
lieved that the story resulted from this
fact
LITTLE DIFFERENCE IN PLAY
Pitchersin Minors Try to Stop Hitting,
While in Majors Batters Must
Hit Ball.
Ping Bodie, the desperate f£nee de
stroyer, has It all figured out. Says
he:
“The principal difference between
the game of baseball In the big leagues
and down in the sticks is as follows:
“In the minors the pitchers are al
ways trying to keep you from hitting
the pill. In the big leagues the hurlers
are always making you hit it That’s
all there is to It.’’
