ON the word Of an insanity expert OF
excellent standing cubist artists are not
all insane. Some appear to trip hight

This is the discreet finding Of Dr. t.

lot about insanity (being director Of
the Psychopathic Hospital in Boston,

cubism.

Cost $40 to Bring Bryan

Boehm, a government witness, was
being cross-examincd by L. b. Will
Jams. counsel for Henry p. Martin. On
the direct examination the witness had
pictured Martin. well known as lob

moneybags Of Labor's National Peace
Council. Williams. with one Of

what that was for.
"That was for the expenses OF trip

Rusky, one Of the aliases used by David
Lamar.
The defence made much of an ad-
mission made by Boehm that he had
introduced peace resolution in the
Central Federated Union somewhat
similar TO the one adopted later by the
council. On crosseXamination 1t was
shown that copies of this {. +. L. reso-

Boehm said he discussed the resolu-
ton adopted by the council with Ober-
wager then its counsel. He said he
pointed out the part of it calling upon
workers TO strike in order to stop the
manufacture and shipment to the Allies
of munitions, and said IT was offensive
to organized labor

! FOR RED CROSS USE
National Tuberculosis Association
and its Subsidiarie. Ready for
War Relief Work.

= New York, July 9.-The National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, which is al
ready cooperating with the Council
of National Defense in an effort to
suppress tuberculosis in the armv.
has offered it's services to the Ameri-
can Red Cross, to aid in any possible
way in carrying on it's work.
The Red Cross. in organizing it's
war relief is confronted with the
task of co-ordinating the health and
philanthropic activities througout
the country. The National Tuber-
culosis Association has the machinery
already organized for this purpose in
every state in the Union, in the form
of bodies of trained workers thor
oughly conversant with the condi-
lions with which the Red Cross must
deal. This machinery is freely Of
fered for the organizing and promot-
ing of local Red Cross campaigns or
in promoting Red Cross work in any
other form that may be determined.
There are now anti-tuberculosis or
CARNATIONS in every state in the
country. These, with country, city
and other local associations, now
number 1900 organizations affiliated
in the National Association. The or
ganization Of state associations was
completed this last year. During
that time, state associations were
formed in South Carolina, Tennessee,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Utah, Ne
vada, Montana, Wyoming, Florida,
Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona and
Kentucky. The machinery of all
these organizations is now made a.
valuable for Red Cross use.
This is a particularly valuable as.
set, it is pointed out, in view of the
fact that these associations are well
organized and run on a thoroughly
business basis. Nearly 300 CITY and
county associations employ paid Sc.
cretaries and stats.
The National Association has for
nearly 10 years been cooperating
with the American Red Cross in the
sale Of Red Cross Christmas seals for
the support of anti-tuberculosis
work. Over 104,0O0,O00 of these
seals were sold in 1916. 81
