THE AGE Of
CLEANLINESS

This is the age Of sanitation and clean
illness. You have read Of clean. sanitary
bakeries and laundries and 1t is nowadays
considered just as important that the
tailor shop in which your clothes are
made should be sanitary and clean. The
other day I went through the workshops
Of the NJ. Stein & Co.. the tailors at
Eighth and F streets, and I was sur
prised to see what a delightful sunshiny
place his people have to work in. Every
thing was Just as clean as pin-no dirt
no old scraps laying around-and the
beautiful sunshine streaming in the win
dows. When you have your clothes
tailored by Stein you know they are
tailored by union tailors amid the most
sanitary and wholesome surroundings.
and it is worth a great deal TO know
that the clothes you wear are produced
under such hygienic conditions.

NOTE To DEMAND FREE
SEAS FOR RED CROSS
Wilson Will Protest to Britain Against
Hold-up Of Supplies for Entente
Relief Work.

President Wilson will make a Wig
orous protest to Great Britain against
her policy Of holding up shipments of
hed Cross supplies for the Central
Powers. The President will charge d.
reetly that the present British policy is
IN direct contravention of the Geneva
Convention and he will practically de-
mand that Great Britain permit the
forwarding OF the Red Cross supplies
for humanitarian work in Germany and
Austria.
The President will act upon the rec
ommedation Of former President Taft
Mr.. Taft. as chairman OF the Central Com
mittee Of the Red Cross-a position to
which he was appointed by President
wilson five months agO-has written
TO the Secretary Of State urging that
steps be taken. to ameliorate the attf-
tude of the British government toward
the Red Cross work as regards the
Central Empires. Mr.. Taft points out
that great accumulation of supplies
Is held up at New York because of
Great Britain's warning that she will
seize them II they are shipped to the
Central Empires for any purpose other
than the support Of the American hos
pltal units.
The President concurs in Mr.. Tafts
opinion that the British policy is mex
cusable and a strongly phrased protest
is promised in his behalf.
