Grady county has on hand about

hold out for many days yet and it Is
hoped that the relief will arrive soon

to assist in seeing that the necessa-

they are critical The dealers state
that the reason for a shortage is due
to lack Of transportation facilities,

Just as much suffering. At the base
hospital we were first brought into
the ground floor where the wounded
are placed before they receive treat
ment. In here were men. women and
children, mutilated and blind from
shrapnel Rrom the ground floor we
took the elevator to the Second story
Of the operating room Here wera
twenty or forty little boys who had
had their arms pulled off or eyes
punched OUT; mutilated in every
way not by bombs or gas or shrap-
mel, but by individuals or bands Of
drunken German soldiers after TAX

goung mothers, some Of whom were

get back in the fight While here
Ne saw an American Red Cross am

the hospital, killing three nurses and
a physician On the second floor
were only girls and women most Of
whom were in the Red Cross work.
In one corner / noticed twelve girls
that were paler and weaker than the
others Later, after talking to them
found them to be American Red
Cross nurses from Philadelphia who
had had their legs cut off by ma

also told Of the explosion Of vimy

Committee is Empowered to
Call Mass Meeting But No
Other Action Taken j.

Interesting discussion developed at
! the special meeting Of the members
Of the Chamber OF Commerce We'd
nesday afternoon in the discussion on
vice conditions in Honolulu when con-
siderable opposition arose against the
| majority report OF the alti-vice COM
mittee which recommends the passage
Of an abatement act, and some mem
| bers stood out strongly for the mi.
nority report, favoring the reopening
of Iwflei under strict regulation.
There was also an attempt TO have
the Chamber Of Commerce drop the
entire investigation. .-.-
The discussion was opened by the
introduction OF The majority and mi
norfty reports and a request from the
committee for the members 10 give It
permission to call public meeting in
order that the people of Honolulu may
be told the conditions which exist
here. This passed and then Supervis-
or Robert Horner, father of the mi.
nerity report, explained why he is
opposed to the majority report and his
ideas relative to his own report
w. H. McInerny then spoke in ia
vor Of Horner's report and his re-
marks were received with applause led
by j. c. Cohen. William Thompson
declared that the abatement law
should never he passed as it would
be sure to start Matchmaking.
Ii was then moved by McInerny that
the decision to call special meeting
be reconsiGered and both reports be
tabled He said he asked this to stop
further activity by the chamber. The
motion was lost and the reports were
accepted and ordered filed.
Neither report was adopted, how
ever, and the meeting broke up with
out the members making a definite
stan1 on the question The result OF
the entire discussion and action was
to leave the committee free to pro-
coed with its plan for a public meet
ing and public discussion of vice-con-
ditions and methods of checking them.
During the meeting Horner said
that he is being subjected to cheap
abuse by the press" because of his
stand. He was at once answered by
w. r. harrington, who pointed out
that a newspaper quite as much as an
individual is entitled to expression of
opinion on a matter of public concern.

WOMEN WORKINGFOR PREPAREDNESS

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-Definite
plans for the coordination Of woman's
work in peace as well as war will be
laid before the Congress of Construc-
tive Patriotism, to be held in Wash.
ington, the 25th, 26th and 9th of this
month under the auspices of the Ma
tional Security League
This will be the beginning of a cam
paign for the utilization of the woman
power of America, as one of the prac-
teal means for the elimination of ma.
tional apathy and inefficiency. In the
opinion Of many prominent women
leaders in civic and social service
movements, the organization of the
woman power of the nation will form
broad basis of national betterment
and service to the country.
The plan to be developed at one of
the sessions of the congress will be
the result of a deep study of the ap-
plication of the woman power of
America and its relation to prepared
ness. The woman power of Europe,
as developed during the war as ma
tional asset to the warning countries,

ing the need of utilizing the woman
power of this country. The plan not
erify involves the use of this power
for war, but its utilization and develop
ment as essential in creating a ma
tional spirit in time of peace.

direction of Miss Anne Morgan, Mrs
William K. Vanderbilt and other pro-
minent women, recently made a study
of woman conditions abroad, today is
sued the following statement on the
utilization of the woman power of this
nation:
why should women take an active
part in the Preparedness Movement
in this country? Just what part should
women be expected to take? Are we
not disturbing ourselves unnecessarily
with ali this Preparedness talk? Is
it not reasonable to suppose that
women in America will rise to the sit

women of Europe have done?-and
