Statement Showing How the Proceeds
of Sale Of Red Cross Seals
Are to Be Spent.

For the benefit of the numerous or
ganizations who helped to sell near
ly forty-iive million Red Cross seals
last year and for the general public,
the American Red Cross and the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of Tuberculosis have
framed definition of anti-tuberculo-
sis work showing how the proceeds
from these holiday stickers are to be
used. The definition limits the eXpen-
diture of money only for the year
ending April so, 1915.
The definition was framed at a re-
cent meeting of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis and states that the term
'anti-tuberculoss work" as it relates
to the expenditure of Red Cross seal
money shall include the following .ac-
tivities:
| !. The construction of hospitals CIR
sanatoriums for the care of the tuber-
| culous.
2. The maintenance of the tubcrcu-
lous.

camps for the tuberculous; the provi-
sion and maintenance of dispensaries.

air classes, or preventoria for the care
or treatment of tuberculous cases or

Or legislative activities which have for
their object the prevention of infection

LABOR COUNCIL
ON RECORD
PORTLAND UNIONISTS ARE
OPPOSED TO PROHIBITION
SET FORTH THEIR REA-
SONS IN STRONG RESOLU-
TIONS.

Declaring a policy of opposition to
statewide prohibition the Central La
Dor Council of Portland passed resolu-
tions on June 5th by almost unani-
nous vote. With more than 100 dele
gates present but two two or three
negative votes were cast.
This action on the part of the Cen
tral Labor Council follows the line of
action four years ago by the Oregon
State Federation of Labor declaring
against prohibition, since which time
the labor organizations of the state
have not been called upon to take a
stand on the liquor or prohibition
problem.
The resolutions adopted Friday
night follow:
Whereas Economic conditions
among the people of the United States
during recent years have become so
depIorable that hasty, ill-advised and
futile efforts at reform have become
the habit among leaders and would-be
leaders, giving a wide field to the
.demagogue and reformer, who would
sway the public mind by promises of
immediate relief and better living con-
.ditions by legislation along moral
lines: economic conditions having
grown out Of the reckless and short
sighted methods employed in develop
ing and exploiting the natural re
sources of the country, and moral leg
islation having the same effect as
local application for the cure of can
Ger; and
"Whereas. 1t has been established
by long experience that no movement
worth while in the interests of the
masses has fed upon prejudice and
passion, and that where movements
have been supported by prejudice or
passion. the benefits accruing to the
people have been Of short duration
and of but little lasting effect in the
life of the whole people; and

ing for real reform and relief. who

the money in question should be de-
posted with the general office till the
appeal was disposed of.
An amendment proposed by the Dis
trict Council of Miami, Florida extend
ing the time limit of transfer cards
failed to receive the endorsement of
the convention. An effort to initiate
an affiliation between the local unions
in this territory and the Socialist
party also was promptly shelved with
out debate.
One of the most animated debates
of the entire convention came up over
the recommendation of the commit
tee on apprentices. which were: First,
that all apprentices should be required
to become members of the United
Brotherhood; second, that the age
limit be fixed at 80 years; third, that

amount of wages they received, in or
der that the local union might keep
track of the progress they were MAX
ing. Most of the discussion hinged on
the age limit, some of the delegates
contending that it was impossible for
one to learn the trade unless it was
done while younger than thirty years,
while others asserted that it was not
right to deny the older man the op-
portunity to improve his condition.
The recommendation of the commit
tee failed to receive the approval of
the convention. however.

CONVENTION OF THE NORTHWEST
COUNCIL OF CARPENTERS
DELEGATES TO NATIONAL CONVENTION TO BE ELECTED
BY DISTRICTS MEETING HELD IN SKYSCRAPER OWNED
BY SEATTLE CARPENTERS BOOST UNION LIABLE.

Seattle.-The fourth annual conven
ton of the Northwest Council of Car
penters met in Carpenters hall Seattle
July 16 last. For the first time in its
history the council held its convention
in hall owned and occupied by one
of its constituent unions. The conven.
tion was not large in numbers, there
being only about 25 delegates present
! but it was large in ability and expert
ence in the labor movement, there be-
ing delegates present who were in Sc
attic years ago on the same busi-
ness that called them there at this
time.
The convention was re-eminently
business body, there being a notable
absence of flowery speeches by polite
| ians whose only interest in such bodies
is manifested when they can pose be-
fore the public as eloquent speech
makers and who hope to gain personal
prestige by professions which they do
not feel and which they promptly for
get as soon as out of the hall
The convention got down to busi
ness promptly by the appointment of
a committee on credentials within IS
minutes after it was called to order
and which presented its report within
a half hour after its appointment, and
committee assignments were made
and several matters which the secre-
tary had ready for consideration were
| assigned to the proper committees be
fore adjournment for lunch at 70
| o'clock All the communications on
the secetary's desk were also dis
posed of before the noon adjournment,
and the convention was ready to COM
which it was called together when it
reconvened after the noon hour. Some
very important matters were consid
cred by the convention, one of the
most important of which was a radi-
cal change in the formation of the gem
eral conventions of the United Broth
erhood. At present the various local
unions bear the expense of sending
their delegates to the general conven-
tions, with the natural result that,
whereas, under the constitution there
would be a convention of nearly 5000
members there is usually about 400 or
800 and they are mostly all sent by the
larger cities and those located within
easy reaching distance of the conven-
tion city. The Pacific coast and the
entire Northwest is practically de-
prived of its right of representation
because of the prohibitive cost of send
ing delegates so far, there having been
since the United Brotherhood was or
ganized only one general convention
held west of Minneapolis and ST
Louis, the one at Salt Lake City six
years ago. The proposed amendment,

delegates shall be chosen by districts
containing approximately 1000 mem

Despite the denials issued by Mr.

has been apparent ever since the
Seven Sister initiative petitions were
taken to Olympia for filing that his Of
flee was aiding and abetting the Stop
Look-Listen League in an attempt to
make a screaming farce of the initia-
tive principle in this state. If it could
be made to appear that the task of
initiating measures was a very costly
one and came directly out of the tax
payers pockets it would be possible to
make the people extremely cautious in
endorsing any initiative measures of
any KIND or preteXt. If the $500, 900
appropriated by the last session for
the staes share of the cost of direct
legislation, might all be expended in
carrying out the detailed provisions of
the law, it would be meat for the ad-
herents of things as they used to be"
The Stop-Look-Listen League has
been proven just ordinary liars in some
of their earlier statements. In their
brazen assurance that it would cost
individuals or organizations RESPONSE

them on the ballot, they guessed wrong
to the amount of $764,593.06. Desper-

RACES HELD AT FAIR GROUNDS

FAST TRACK ADDED TO sUc-

In spite of counter attractions the
Fourth of July race matinee held at
the fair grounds Saturday was a big
success. A perfect day coupled with a
fast track enabled the horses to make
fast time and every race was a thriller
from the spectators standpoint.
In the 2:10 pace Bessie B won both
heats, Geo. W. Newton second, Lazy
Heart third, Lockhart fourth and
Paderewski fifth. Time in this heat
was 2:13 Ia.
In the 2:2O pace Black Sign took
both heats, Idle Time second Zip
Bang third, Grace Red fourth. Time
2:24 1-2. In this race Young Billy
Smith the 11-year-old marvel brought
his horse, Grace Red from fourth
place in the first heat to second place
in the next heat in spite Of a poor
start. He vas loudly applauded by the
grandstand. Black Sign is entered IN
the California-Pacifc 100000 race
next month. Those who watched his
performance Saturday are satisfied he
will make a good showing.

place, Handsome Boy second. and Jes-
sic Mack third. Time 1922.
