LETTER SENT TO LEGISLATIVE
CANDIDATES IN STATE
The Consumers League of Illinois
has sent the following letter to every
legislative candidate in Illinois:
"The Consumers League Of Hi
nois, through it's interest in protective
laws for women and child workers,
and their enforcement, has been
brought into close cooperation with
the state factory office. The mem
bers of the league feel it of the ut
most importance in safeguarding the
lives and health of working women
and children that the state factory
Office be removed from the influence
of political partisanship and the par
tisan appointee.
ct is the desire of the league to let
its membership and the public know
whether you will go on record as
favoring the placing of the state fac
tory Office under civil service regula-
tons, that its employees may have the
same protection afforded to the char
ity and other departments of the
state.
AN answer to the enclosed ques-
ton val be deeply appreciated.
do you favor placing all the en-
ployes of the state factory inspector
under the protection of civil service
that the Office may be removed from
n Z Ia
and from partisan appointees"

Summary of War
NelUs of Yesterday

once again the armies struggling
for mastery In the coast territory
along the North sea are the object Of
the Intense interest In the European
war. for IL is In this fegian that tho
Germans are concentrating their great
forces, with the object Of smashing
through the allied lines TO reach the
French ports on the channel.
Already the Germans have gained
an important strategic point in the
recapture of Dixmude. Their latest
official announcement is OF an ex-
tremely optimistic view,

oners. the repulse of fierce counter
attacks by the British and the hold
ing Of the heights TO the north OF
Armcntieres and further advance
to the southwest OF Lille.
In comparison, the French official
statement is meager. It confines it
self to the mere announcement that
the Germans have continued their ef-
forts without achieving any new re-
suits.
The British parliament has been
assembled to take whatever steps arc
necessary, as the speech from the
throne put it. for tho prosecution to

cradle dimensions and q vote for adj
ditional men.
King George, In his speech, assert

he had striven to preserve friendly
attitude toward Turkey, but that bad
connsels and alien influences had
driven her into policy OF wanton
and defiant aggression He expressed
appreciation for the proofs which his

clock in the steeple struck S25,000
and little over when the " M c. a.
workers met for the noon luncheon
yesterday and checked over the
amounts that had been collected In
the Y. NJ. G. A. campaign. To be

amounted TO s25,524 and IS the hands

From the beginning the most sig

to ask how much the man worth five
times as much as himself is giving
He has not bothered about whether
the other fellow is doing his duty or
not. He has simply figured over to
find out how much he could give
without actually going into bank
ruptcy, and then has given 1t all.
