ib|e Keener Competition in
Retail Trade,

Local Carpenters Union No. 361
manifested it's interest in civic affairs
last Tuesday evening at it's meeting in
Rowley hall when it unanimously in
dorsed the ordinance before the city
commission introduced by Commits
sioner Phillips, providing for reduc-
ton in the license fee Of transient
merchants.
1t was decided to send a communi-
cation to the council urging the adop-
ton of the measure, and it is likely
that several members of the union will
be present at the meeting next Mon
day afternoon when final action will
be taken.
It was reported that D. McAuliffe
a member who disappeared a few
weeks ago, has crossed the border
and is located on a Canadian farm.
Last Tuesdays session was very
short, lasting a little more than an
hour. Two new members were initi-
ated:
Trade was reported as being very
good, many Of the members working
overtime on the construction of houses
at the McDougall-Duluth shipbuilding
plant at Spirit lake.

STILL III ON. ON STRIKE
10 Developments in Local
Transportation Trouble; Re-
port Traffic Diverted.

There are practically no develop
ments in the strike of the members of
local Freight Handlers Union No. 81,
who quit work Sunday, Oct. p, to en-
force demands for an increase in
wages from so to so cents an hour.
Many Of the big freighters coming
where they are unloaded after some
delay. About half of the freight
handlers across the bay are out in
sympathy with the local men.
A boat was loaded this week at
Nothern Pacific Dock No. 2, where
the officials and office force were
recruited to do the work. It has been
reported that all west-bound' freight
traffic has been diverted from the
Head of the Lakes, and it is not i'm
probable that the Great Lakes Trans
pOrtatiOn company and the Northern
Pacific intend to hold out until the
end of the navigation season, some
time about Dec. 10.
w. B. Jones, vice president of the
International Longshoremens associa-
ton, who was in Superior the last
week and refused to sanction the local
strike, has, departed.
A meeting of the Superior Freight
Handlers union will be held Friday
night, Nov. 2, at which a committee
of the Duluth local will appear, in an
endeavor to get the solid support of
the Wisconsin men.
Officials of the local union stated
that the strikers would remain firm
for their demands, and would engage
in other work if necessary.

sages just received:
THE American Red Cross valves
the restriction in the contract that
no agent put seals on sale before
Nov. Is.
I'VE understand that mail to reach
the soldiers in France before Christ
mas must be mailed not later than
Nov. Is and preferably at an earlier
date. The advantage of allowing an
early sale of Red Cross Seals by local
campaign managers for packages go
ing to our soldiers is obvious. Ac-
cordingly the American Red Cross
valves the restriction in the contract
which made Nov.*15 the opening day,
providing Red Cross Seals BE not
placed on sale before Nov. s."
Continuing, DR.. Murphy said: RED
Cross Seal supplies have already been
sent to the towns where campaign
managers volunteered early. Any
community that is not ready to start
it's campaign on the opening day,
Nov. S, may be considered lacking in
patriotism.
This year more than ever the
American Red Cross expects to see
rousing campaigns in every COM
munity. of each of the states. The
fund raised is to- be devoted for the
most part to tuberculosis war prob
lens; the Red Cross Seal campaign is
the only Red Cross activity devoted
to preventive and educational work;
then too nearly all the money con-
tributed is spent in the community
where it is raised"

FOREST OFFICERS WILL
AID RED CROSS


Denver, May IS Cooperating
with the Mountain division of the
American Red Cross in plans for ma
tional defense, arrangements have
been made whereby all forest officers
in Colorado and Wyoming will aid
directly in distributing Red Cross in
formation and in the organization Of
local chapters, branches and auyiliar-
les in their respective communities.
In accordance with the plans out
lined by the director of the Mountain
division and the head of the forestry
department in Denver, forest officers
will aim, at once, to get in touch
with local womens' clubs, ladies,
aids, lodges and groups of influen-
tial citizens, and present information
as to the scope and opportunity for
service offered by chapters and
branches of the Red Cross. Where
organizations are effected, particu-
larly valuable assistance will be
rendered by forest officers in storing
and shipping supplies, in facilitating
communication between chapters,
auXiliaries, and individuals, and in
supplying assistance and information
in the outlying mountain districts.
The relation of forest officers, it is
said, will be that of councillor, or ad-
visor, and while rendering such as
sistance as may be needed, he will
hold no official position between the
division headquarters of the Red
Cross and the local unit.
