UNION MAY UNITE
| WITH OTHER CLUBS
COlOred Citizens Consider
Affiliating With National
Advancement Association.

Members of the Citizens union are
again discussing the advisability Of
affiliating with the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Colored
People.
This matter was placed in the hands
of committee last year but no action
was taken as the inside organization
work when the union was new did not
give the body an opportunity of ad-
ditional work.
Members say the union is on a firm
footing and is in position to make a
name for itself as member of the
national association. The plan it has
for this years work, will introduce
lines which have never been attempt
ed before and if these are successful,
the organization will want the aid of
the national association to further ita
work in future years.
In joining the national association,
the local union will have the advan.
tage of being able to secure good
speakers for public meetings and to
get expert advice on the questions OF
the race
The matter has not been voted on
by the general body as yet but prob.
ably will be brought up soon.

the weak points in the German lines,
after long hard bombardment. It
may be two weeks before the final
stage of the battle is reached, but we
believe that there can be but one re-
sult-victory for the allies
1t is believed that at least 100000
men are engaged along the mighty
battle front from Noyon to Etain and
ThiaucOurt, east of the Meuse So
far, however, there has been but little
work for the infantry and cavalry, the
issue being waged with the heavy
artillery.
Germans Rest.
Both General Won Kluck, command
er of the German right and General
Won Buelow, commander of the Ger
man troops which flank General Won
Klucks forces on the east welcomed
the tactics of General Joffre, and
Field Marshal French. The present
plan of battle of the allies command
ers is enabling the worn out German
soldiers to get much needed rest
behind their breast-works.
On the other hand, the French and
British troops are being benefited by
the turn of affairs, where they were
badly worn after the long march Of
between 65 and 20 miles in pursuit of
the retiring German columns.
While the British and French are
thus engaged along their left wing and
upon the center, the French troops on
the right flank from Suippes eastward
across the Meuse are exerting ire
mendous powers against the armies of
the German Crown Prince and Crown
Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria.

PARIS, Sept. 18.-Frank admission
was made here today that neither the
Germans nor the allies have scored
any decisive advantage in the great
battle, which has now ragged for six
days along the Aisne river and east
ward across the Meuse.
The French and British artillery has
failed to dislodge the invaders from
their strongly entrenched positions on
the heights along the Aisne and north
of Rheims. But on the other hand the
vigor of the allies assaults has COM
PEELED the invaders to remain upon
the defensive.
General Gallieni, the French mill
tary governor, believes that the battle
will continue for some days yet on the
present field, but he feels assured
that the Germans will be dislodged
when the British and French secure
reinforcements of heavy artillery
along the front.
At the present time the conflict
seems to be little more than an
artillery duel The Germans now
hold strong positions but | think that
they will not be able to maintain them.
Explains Strategy.
"The people have confidence in the
mastery strategy of General Joffre,
and Field Marshal Sir John French"
explained Governor Gallieni THE
troops believe in them implicitly. The
allies army will doubtless maneuver
and swerve terrific attack against

would be screened and used as sleep
ing quarters for the patients. Cots
for men patients would be placed on
one side of the veranda, while the
women would be accommodated on the
veranda on the other side of the
house. Such building could be put
up for about $500, which includes
furnishings. The salary of the trained
nurse would be 5000 a year. and the
housekeeper's salary would be about
$500 Practically all the food sup
plies could be secured from the county
institution, which is located near the
proposed site of this tuberculosis col
ony.
II can not think of any better way
the county could expend $4,000 than
making an appropriation for a tuber-
culosis colony" said Mr.. Melpolder to-
day. 1.-The expenditure of this money
Ia certain to save a number of lives.
and. as The Palladium pointed out
yesterday, the people who will be
cared for are the ones who are the
worst spreaders of this terrible dis
ease One way or the other the public
funds must.be expended to assist them
and this being the case, the county
might as we'll care for them as scien-
tifically as possible. 1t is a waste of
public funds, in fact, not to seek to
effect cures for these people so they
will cease to be a burden to the tax
payers 1t is strange that in SO many
enlightened communities this most ter
rible of menaces to the public health
is ignored almost completely, while
tho authorities employ drastic meas
ures to stamp out smallpox, diphtheria
and other less deadly diseases.
Urges Prompt Action.
I'VE act promptly in the segrega-
ton of criminals but pay no attention
to the victims Of tuberculosis, permit
ting them to remain at large spreading
their death germs promiscuously. l
will take my chances with the Grim
inals at large, but what protection do
we have with the tuberculosis victim
at large?"
Tomorrow morning committee OF
citizens interested in the project of
having the county establish tubercu-
losis colony on it's farm, will hold a
meeting with the county commission
ers. They will urge that this plan be
carried out.
Miss Benner, city visiting nurse
was delighted when she learned that
tlele was prospect III 'iie coIdo
lishment of tuberculosis colony for
dependents. Since she has been in
the city she has cared for fourteen
victims of the white plague, eight of
whom have already died. How many
other people have been effected by
the unfortunates she has, of course
no way of ascertaining. The story
she tells of the hopeless struggles OF
these poor people, neglected by the
community and awaiting certain death
with as much fortitude as possible, is
4 sordid tragedy.
DR. A. J. Whallon. president of the
Wayne County Anti-tuberculosis so
ciety, said today that he heartily ap
proves of the colony plan and would
attend the hearing before the county
commissioners tomorrow.
