How to Use the Red Cross Seals

Red Cross Seals should. in accord
aEcc with Order No. 5000 of the Post
office Department. be affixed to the
reverse side of domestic mail matter"
and not on the address side of any let
ters or packages that are going thru
the mail. They may be placed any-
where on matter going by express.
As many seals may be used on the
back Of letter or package as may be
desired Care should be exercised in
sending merchandise through the mails
not to place seals over the strings with
which the package is tied, since this
seals the package against inspection
and subjects it to first-class postage
rates. Users of Red Cross Seals are
cautioned against their indiscrimina-
ting use on foreign mail Red Cross
Seals in normal times NAV be used on
the reverse side of mail matter sent to
Austria, Germany. Great Britain and
most Of the British Colonies, except
India and Australia. Guatemala. Uru-
quay and Portugal refuse to admit

tam European countries will return TO
the sender any mail bearing Red Cross
Seals on the address side Mail ad-
dressed to any OF the heligerent coun-
tries in Europe should not bear the
Red Cross Seal. Red Cross Seals may
be used on the face Of checks. on bills

mercial paper. These Christmas Seals
are not good for postage. They will
not carry any mail matter. but an>

outline of his plan:

thought. To me 1t is the paramount is

confront us today for think they are
nearly over, but because of the diff
culties that we can see in the future.
1t occurs to me that we should create
a board to take the place of several of
the boards now in existence. would
abolish the Office of the state labor com
missioner, the commissioner of mines,
the mining inspector, the utilities COM
mission and. in fact, all of our COM
missions and boards and create one
commission of three to be appointed by
the governor. 1 would have this COM
mission composed of men who are nei-
ther laboring men or the employers of
labor, so as to have them absolutely

their time to the proposition. would
surround them with an advisory board
composed of men who labor and men

the necessary clerical help to do their
work l would clothe them with the
power to make recommendations to the
governor for the settlement of indus
trial disputes and l would have them
investigate and try to prevent indus
trial trouble. If this commission was
composed of men in whom the people
Of the state had absolute confidence
their recommendations would 20 a
long way in framing public sentiment,
L would clothe them with all of the
powers now exercised by the boards

This would. in an indirect way, center
lhese powers in the hands of the gov
ernor. If that situation were in exist
ence we would not have divided
power such as now exists. In other
words the governor would not be en-
barrassed by his labor commissioner

TIE LEAGUE HAS DECLARED
WAR.

The American Anti-Saloon Press
Bureau, with its central office at Wes-
teryille, Ohio, is sending out its cir
cular letters for publication in the
press. The press bureau announces
that the Antl-Saloon league will wage
a war of determination against the
liquor traffic in the states of Washing,
ton, Oregon and Colorado. and that
some of the ablest speakers in the
country have been secured to paint
horrible pictures of the evils that
flow from the consumption of the red
liquid.
The circular states that the Anti
Saloon league has now 100 offices
established in various parts of the
country, and that the league has 600
salaried officials on the payroll.
Who is putting up the money?
Not the preachers, who make up the
majority Of the aggregation that are
beggaring the English language for
invectives and epithets to hurl at the
demon, rum.
The funds are being raised from the
giant combinations that Oppress the
people-that make war on organized
labor-that use the thugs of detective
agencies, state militia and federal
troops to maintain the will of that
invisible government" that seems to
be more potent than the government
at Washington. The Anti-Saloon
league has proclaimed a national war
on breweries, distilleries and saloons
and the league is getting its funds
from financial giants like Rockefeller
who entertain the opinion that if men
who work for wages can be made tenn
perate by law, that the slave can be
made to work for less wages when
liquid refreshments are taken away
from him.
The Anti-Saloon League, in its cir
cular, does not state as to what pro
vision is to be made for the care of
the hundreds of thousands of en-
ployes who are engaged in breweries,
distilleries and saloons. There are
several millions of men now in this
country who are out of employment,
but the Anti-Saloon League, in its war
upon the liquor traffic, does not seem
to care if the idle army is increased
to greater proportions, This country
is now confronted by an idle army
that is becoming a menace and a
danger, and yet, fanatics who are
blind to our industrial conditions, are
engaged in a campaign that will in
crease the jobless army of this coun-
