Mesa News Notes
DR. 4. H. WILLIAMS
 SPEAKS AT MESA

pr. Allen Hamilton Williams of Phoenix addressed an audience at the Baptist church Sunday night, in the interest of the Red Cross society. The meeting had not been well advertised which doubtless accounted for the few who were gathered to hear the doctor His talk was plain simple statement of what had been done at different times by the American Red Cross so- ciety and the fact that it's work is not necessarily confined to war times was emphasized. He explained that the committee in charge of the work in the United States, had not deemed it ad- visable to have branch societies in every town, but had endeavored to group the smaller town in with larger one. In this instance, the speak CT stated that the worker sent to Phoe- nix to organize a branch for this sec tion deemed 1t advisable to ask Mesa and the surrounding towns to organ ize to the extent of an executive com mittee, and that other committees such as publicity, membership. and hospital supplies be formed, but that the plan as arranged would call for the sending Of the Mesa collections to Phoenix to be returned to the Mesa branch. This was explained by the statement that all funds would have to be audited in ! Washington by the war department, and that as he had said before, the head committee did not want so many small branches to deal with
 At the conclusion of the address. a committee of five was named to act in | conjunction with the committee ap- pointed at a prior meeting. to further arrange whatever plans may be de- cided on.

In dedi- eating this memorial as the property of the American people, let us like wise consecrate ourselves in our day and generation to maintain the Ameri- canism of Lincoln inviolate, and from this occasion and these surroundings take increased devotion for all that Americanism means. The American ism of Lincoln represents patriotism that abides not alone amid the roar of cannon and the din and clash of arms,
 but in the simple duties of life as well; a patriotism that would uplift man. kind, not through the bayonet or bull let, but by inculcating into the minds of men those ideals that translate the heartbeats of humanity into action"

The demands in this controversy have not been presented in judgment for the purpose of fixing definite daily period of labor reduction in the existing hours of labor change in methods of opera tion but fer the real purpose of accomplishing an increase in wages of approximately One Hundred Million Dollars per annum, s per cent for the men in railroad freight train and yard service represented by the labor organizations in this matter.
 After careful examination of the facts and patient and continuous consultation with the Conference Committee of Managers, and among ourselves, we have reached clear understanding of the magnitude of the questions and of the serious consequences to the railroads and to the public involved in the decision of them.
