RED CROSS SEAL FIGURES
44O, 900, 900 Holiday Stickers Already
Distributed In United States

The biggest drive in the history of
the Red Cross Christmas Seal move
ment is being made this year. AL
ready 440,O00,000 of the little Christ
mas stickers have been printed and
distributed throughout the United
States.
Agents in every State and Territory

Zone and from Porto Rico and Hawaii
and even in the far off Philippines
have been making demands for the
stamps Through these agents the
seals will be distributed to the local
and State anti-tuberculosis associa-
tions and to other agencies through
which they viii be put on sale.
Every effort is being made to stim-

new NAVAL ENSIGN
COMMITS SUICIDE
GlendOn Irwin, Promoted From
Ranks, Unfortunate Victim
USES Shotgun FOR DEED
Took Weapon IstO his Bathroom And
Fired Fatal Shot Into Abdomen-
Dependency The Cause.

Brooding over belief that he had
a permanent physical afIliction, al
though the attending physicians had
advised him to the contrary, Glendon
W. Irwin, 3S years old who won his
spurs by coming up from the ranks
and securing a temporary commission
as Ensign in the Navy, committed sui
eide at his home at 1873 Chesapeake
Avenue, Eastport, yesterday after
noon.
Going to the bath rom with a shot
gun at about 1890 o'clock, he dis
charged load of shot into his abdo-
men, and died Of the wound about an
hour later at the Naval Hospital
whittier he was removed.
That the death of Ensign Irwin was
premeditatd is the belief of the naval
authorities. This belief is borne out
by the statements of naval doctors
who attended Irwin during a recent
illness following stroke of paraly-
sis. He seemed to be despondent, it
is stated and he remarked that he in
tended to end his life Ensign Irwin
after being under treatment at the
hospital for several weeks, returned
to his home about two weeks ago.
While it is generally accepted that
Ensign Twins death was suicide, it
also was reported that the dead man
as simply cleaning his shot gun and
that the wound may have been inflict-
ed accidentally. Ensign Irwins wife
was in the house at the time the fatal
shot was fired She heard it and i'm
mediately investigated, and the
wounded man was hurried to the ma
val hospital in an ambulance. Ensign
irwin was formerly a Chief Gunner in
the Navy and received his temporary
commission in the line, through merit.
Surviving him besides widow are
two children.
Ensign Irwin was born in Fayette
county, o., on November "a, 1879, and
after serving ten years l month and
days as an enlisted man in the Navy,
was appointed gunner January 81,
1907 He was promoted to chief gum
ner January 81. 1913, and was tenn
porarily appointed an ensign on July
1, 1917, in accordance with the pro-
visions of the Act of Congress ap-
proved May %, 1917. He was serv-
ing on duty at the Naval Academy as
an assistant in the department OF
seamanship

HELD FOR VIOLATING
FEDERAL BOOZE" TAX
Federal Agents >wOop Down On
Mr.. William Dove Yesterday
HEARING IN BAL IIMoRE TODAY
Quantity OF Whiskey Upon Which Tax
Had Not Been Paid Found Stored
In Stable at Germantown.

Mr.. William Dove, well known
about Annapolis, proprietor of a
saloon in the western section OF the
city. went to Baltimore today to APP
pear before the officials OF the United
States District Court in answer to a
charge that he had boarded a quantity
of whiskey and other intoxicating
beverages as a.means of escaping the
Federal war tax
Mr. Dove was apprehended yester-
day afternoon by agents of the
United States Internal Revenue De-
partment, who visited the city in
course of one of their regular inspec-
ton tours. 1t is understood that adj
vance information was given the Fed
raj officials by certain OF the county
authorities that Mr. Dove had en-
gagged in this Illicit practice. Armed
with this information, the Federal
officials visited Mr. Dove at his place
of business on West street, and 1t de-
veloped that the booze" in question
had been stored in the stable of Mr..
Thomas Dove, father OF the accused
man, who lives at Germantown.
Ihereupon the Federal agents went to
the premises and found the goods.
which they coniiscated There were
three half-barrels. and two whole
barrels of whiskey. keg of gin, and
three cases of bottled goods Ar
rangements were then made by the
Federal agents with Postmaster T. J.
Linthicum TO have proper custody
over the confiscated goods, and the
receptacles were placed in the base
ment of the PostofIice Building.
Mr. Dove, 1t is understood, claims
that the whiskey was stored in the
stable on the home place of his
father simply because there was in
sufficient room at his place of bust
ness. But it appears that the tax
which the government laid against
John Barleycorn," under the war
regulations had not been paid, and
that, of course, is the gravamen of
the whole situation.
In connection with this case there
have been many reports recently con
corning alleged acts in contravention
of the government regulations placed
in effect since the beginning Of the
war; and ii is not unlikely that other
arrests will follow for "bootlegging,"
or other offenses.
1t is understood that the penalty
for an offense of this sort is a fine of
$1,000 and Imprisonment for as long
as two years in Jail

MASTERING OF THE AIR

How decisive factor the airplane will play in the termination of the war is subject of considerable dis cussion just now. The unrevealing opinion is that it is destined to be- come an even more important arm of the service than it. is today. There are many students of war problems who believe. indeed, that it will per form the coup 'd'esat which will lay cock robin low.
 Now they are talking of building a gigantic fleet of 100000 aircraft for the United States. It is estimated that such an undertaking would cost a billion dollars, but the argument is advanced that the airplanes can bs utilized in times of peace for com mercial purposes, and it requires no stretch of the imagination to con- ceive of airplanes flying back and forth across the Atlantic. In fact, the head of the Aero Club says that to-

listments has been with the French Canadians, though some of these have volunteered for overseas service and made excellent records. But, in the main, this class of citizens has not responded adequately to the call for volunteers. In the New Engalnd states French Canadian Americans have dis played quite as much patriotism as any other class of our citizens and their compliance with the conscription law was made without protest.
 No doubt the disaffection in Que bee and other French districts arises from hostility to certain Dominion leaders, rather than from disinclina- tion to support the empire. The Do minion government, however, should be encouraged by the success of con- scription in the United States to press the issue insistently. The people of Canada are co-partners whose busi- ness is threatened with extinction by the German danger, and the reluctant partners should forfeit their inter- est in the business of they fail to de- fend it. The issue should win.

CONSCRIPTION IN CANADA

Canada is just now experiencing the discussion and agitation over a pro posed army conscription law that the United States very happily escaped. The failure of able-bodied men to sup ply Canada's enlistment requirements induced Sir Robert Borden, the De- minion premier, to suggest that con- scription law is the only way out. Fol lowing this the Dominion began to ferment, and it has been fermenting ever since. Conscription is now the great issue with our neighbors of the north, and will be until it is settled in the fall elections. Meanwhile the soap-boxing is going to be very good.

BASE BALL GAME WON
 BY FORT LISCUM TEAM

Fort Liscum won the $50 purse of- fered by the Fourth of July committee yesterday, defeating the Valdez vet erans by a score of nine to nothing. The field was wet and slippery and the game was given to the Liscum team by the Valdez boys, after the third inning, the rain causing all but the most ardent fans to leave the field. The game was marked by good and bad playing on both sides. the condi- ton of the ball rendering playing nearly impossible. Liscum has strong team, and is putting up good ball this summer
