ESSENTIAL THINGS TO PUT

WASHINGTON-A million comforl
kits for the Russian revolutionary
army and as many more for the
American army and navy is the gift
being planned by the American Red
Cross today.
If you are going to assist in max
ing this gift possible, the following

the Red Cross womans bureau, viii
be helpful. Three types are favored;
a simple bag with draw string, and
two with pockets, one for trench WORK,
the other for hospital use. The kits
are to be made of plain khaki as
colored goods are dangerously visible
when carried by troops at the front.
The kits should contain, pipe, tobacco
pouch, heavy socks, handkerchiefs,
wash cloths and soap, mouth-organ
Or game, pencil, writing paper or pad
and envelopes and a single bladed
Knife and spoon.

The need for something to fill the
soldiers TIME after their days rou-
tine has been met by national move
fment just started in Washington to
provide libraries for every canton
ment and soldiers camp in the
United States and perhaps even for
THE American troops in France.
The idea originated with the Com
mission on Training Camp Activi-
ties, appointed by President Wilson.
His Commission has found that
evan with the rigorous pace which
the men in training are put through,
they have some time which hangs
heavily on their hands. To meet this
condition, Raymond B. Fosdick,
chairman Of the commission on train
ing camp activities, suggested that
central libraries be established for
the soldiers camps and environments.
The Secretary Of War, whose adj
vice was asked, responded by ap-
pointing ten nationally known men
and women to constitute a Library

soldiers with libraries. Frank A.

City Bank Of New York City, ae-
cepted the Craftsmanship offered him
by Secretary Baker.
The War Council selected Harold
Braddock, of Montclair, N. j., as its
executive director.
1t is estimated that $1,000,00O will
do the work Of erecting the build
ings,. equipping the libraries and
keeping them in shape for at least
three years. The expense Of the
campaign has been met privately and
every cent of the $1,OOO,000 will be
used for the actual establishment Of
the libraries.
The response to the Library War
Council appeal shows that those who
are staying at home are not only re-
spending but insisting on helping

tions are being received by the
Library War Council in amounts
from 81 up into the thousands. /.

IN OFFICES At
THE CAPITAL
APPEAL. SENT OUT TO COUNCIL
OF DEFENSE TO ROUND
UP TYPEWRITERS.

WASHINGTON-The Council of Ma
tional Defense has issued a plea to
women to learn stenography and type
writing and to enter the government
service in Washington. Salaries of
$1,000 to $1,000 are being paid to be-
ginning. So great has been the de-
mand for clerks in the departments at
the national capital-even clerks who
know nothing of either stenography
or typewriting-tha girls working be-
hind ribbon counters in department
stores have been quitting their jobs
in order to get the much more lucra-
tive pay of government employment.
The hours are from a. m. to 4:30
p. N. with half holt at noon for
lunch. Assurance is given that en-
ployment is available for all who
can pass the examinations. Examin-
ations are held in all the important
towns in every state.
Bill Perfected by MondelI
Before the measure providing for
the taking of land affidavits by soldiers
before their commanding officers was
passed by the house an element OF
strength was added to it by Represent
alive Frank w. Mondell of Wyoming,
who secured the adoption of an amend
ment declaring that such affidavits
shall be as binding in law and with
like penalties as if taken before the
register of the United States land Of
flee" Mr.. Mondell's suggestion will |
ing the law, as it definitely removes !
all doubts as to the intention of con-
gress in giving our men abroad the |
same privileges in regard to affidavits !
they would exercise in this country.
Put All on S-Hour Basis
If the bill introduced by Represent :,
ative Burton L. French of Idaho is en-
acted into law it will probably have
a more far-reaching effect than any
other labor legislation passed at the
session of congress just closed. In
hour day for all persons engaged in
industries whose prod
ucts enter into interstate commerce.
Exceptions are made for extraordinary
and for contracts in force
at the time of the passage of the act.
A fine of $1,000 or Imprisonment for
six months are the penalties for viola
ton of the provisions of the act. Many
Of the thousands of concerns affected
by Mr.. French's bill of course are ;
now under a 8-hOur system, ,
but the measure will be of great bene- ,
fit in equalizing tn labor conditions of
he woodworking industries, and pro- :
yiding fairer basis of competition
'or trade. The bill goes over to the
lext regular session.
Recognition For Philippine Scouts f
The valiant work performed by the :
Philippine scouts, so far from our
,wn shores that it is not properly ap-
)reciated by the people at home, is
recognized in a bill introduced by
senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa
to give the officers of the
couts many of the privileges as to G
etirement now enjoyed by officers OF
he regular army. Provision is made
Or retirement after 20 years service,
r discharge for disability in line of
uty, on pay equal to rs per cent OF
ctive pay. Another right granted k
y Mr.. Cummins' bill, for which the al
Ulcers of the scouts have long con- A
ended, is the issuance of commissions bt
imilar to those of the regular army. c.
