BAD STATEMENTS
AREBELNG MADE
Much tias Been Said Of Late Criticizing
Expenditure Of Money in Red
Cross Administration
STATEMENTS ARE NOT TRUE
National Chairman Dawson Writes
Mrs. SERVER, Local Secretary,
in Regard to Expenditure

| So much has been said of late on
the part OF those not friendly to the
| Red Cross movement, critizing the
expenditure of money in the admins
| tration of the Red Cross that we deem
it necessary to say something to meet
these charges. Some reckless state
ments have gone so far as to assert
| that the expenses of the administra-
| ton amount to IS per cent of the
money collected. Anyone familiar with
the work of the Red Cross would
know that the persons engaged in
Red Cross work, except the office en-
ployees, give their time without be-
ing paid. for the cause. Public speak
ors in behalf of the Red Cross say
that the expenses of administration
are less than per cent and notwith-
standing these statements, charges
are made and repeated until recently
Mrs SERVER. the secretary of the
Denison chapter Of the American Red
ross addressed a letter to Mr.. Fl. P.
Davidson, chairman of the Red Cross
War Council and asked him to advise
her on the question of expenses of adj
ministration and the following letter
was received by her from the chair
man, which explains itself:
"July Is, 1917.
Mrs. Florence N. SERVER, Sec.
Denison Chapter, American Red
Cross,
Denison. Iowa.
Dear Madam:
Referring to your letter of the 18th
inst it is unfortunate that it shodld
be stated anywhere that the expen-
SEES of administration of the American
Red Cross will absorb a considerable
nart of the subscriptions to the Red
Cross War Fund. Obviously, it is i'm
possible to foretefl the overhead
charges of the national headquarters
in the performance of its work. as
there are SO many factors yet unde-.
termined. |, of course, cannot guar
antee it, but I am perfectly willing to
hazard the prediction that not more
| than one per cent of the money to be
| expended by the war council will be
absorbed in administrations ex5f4ns8s.
If it will serve a purpose, you may
quote me to this effect S
Yours very truly. l5F
Fl. P. DAWSON,
Chairman of Red Cross War Council
We suggest that the foregoing letter
is complete answer to the charges
of those people who evidently are not
friendly to the work of the Red Cross
and we suggest that they either pro-
'"ce some evidence to sustain their
charges or cease to make them.

LOOK AHEAD FOLKS.

Thus far most of us have ns.- ligA- of the administrations request to estat.ish wheatess and meatless days in oHr homes. A matter of sincere belief, only few have observed the days at all Apparently we do not realize the fact that we are at war. We do not seem to under stand that such requests are only advance not ices and unless we heed them. they will be fol- lowed by orders and not requests. accompanied with food tickets, allowing us so much meat or four as the case may be, and no more. And just as sure as anything can be, unless we are prompt to comply with such requests when they are made; the regulation tickets are sure to come.
 Upper most in our minds; considering the exigencies of the time should be the fact that officials directing the peoples action during the war, are supposed to know what part every man, woman and child is supposed to play in order
The daily progressive-miner., 1917-11-14

The pro-Germans and anti-war cranks who inoaqine they can pull something over the local authorities. had better disillusion their minds on that subject. Such expression as are attributed to some may pass unnoticed along the Wrangell Narrows where they are practically all ot the same mind. Here, they can cuss the President all they please in their minds; but from the mom- ent their cussing becomes audible, from that moment their trouble shall begin. Verify, a general round up is about due.

HE STARTLED NOBODY.

According to dispatch yesterday, high administration official said that he could see Cermany'a hand in Russia's political disturb ances. That in his opinion Germany had been preparing this political upheaval etc. The high official must have been asleep if he failed to notice as much long since, or his perceptiYe faculty must be painfully dull.
 All the internal strifes in Greece, Russia Italy. Ireland and the United States is Germany s work, the foundation of which she constructed years ago. Germany's preparedness for war was not confined to manufacture of guns, zep- pelins. submarines and the erection of fortifica- tions It is safe to say that she spent less tlr2e and intelligence on that than she did on the work of organizing breeders of economic disturbances At the outbreak of the war these forces were as well trained as the soldiers. Leaders ot '1ultur" were organizing tools all over the world and as soon as war was declared the work ct creating disturbances was started. as the ores show And to think that such high officlal as the secretary of war of our great count@r. has inst found it out; a.i comes out with an- aouncament in a ponderous manner as thou@h he had discovered something to startle somebody

to contribute his or her share to the support of the country. If we all do our share, the burden is lqhtened to that extent on the whole. To sbirk our duty in that respect isn't fair; not only to the country as a whole and the soldiers who need the food but to individuals who have been complying with the request in that ana through those who failed, tickets will be issued to everybody, thus making it doubly hard Tor those who in good faith contributed their shares by observing meatless and wheatless days. Let us look ahead comply with the request and avoid worse

TIE MAoAzlNED BUSINESS MAN.
(From the Toledo Blade)


 In pieurng the business man, it is the style now with the magazine artists to make their subject look as if lie ate clinkers for breakfast The chin is the chin of Q buclo mate. Eyes are hard and suspicious The allowance is that which the barber of the old fashioned penitentary used to make his victims.
 \ business man type is deuson There is no such animal. Business men in many styles as there are styles of mankind We have seen them pugnacious tud cross enough snap finger off the first who ap preached them goodnatued enough to listen hours to beo agents That grzzed captain of finance in Bunker 8aan is frequent a figure the captain of industry who ha made himself in the likeness of his efficient piece of machinery.
 We think know what the artists are after They dasea to make it appear that business men have some wss cornered the stock of human will power. It is strange noon-as the artists would themselves realize they business when wives nd daughters descend the office.

The two most important questions before us today are: First; What can l do to help to win the war? This is answered by the soldiers and the food savers. The second is: What can the country do to help me? The food specula- tors have answered that.

Substitutes For Meat That
Have Same Food Value

Meat is always high priced and es-
peclally so now. says Miss LeonorA
richards, assistant in domestic science
III the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege. There are many foods whiehe
have the same nutritive value as meat.
and these may be used as meat substi-
tutes.
Baked beans, cheese fondu, macaronf
and cheese, baked rice and cheese,
cheese soutfle, corn and cheese soufle,
and rice with lentils may be served
as substitutes for meat and arc much
cheaper i'll preparation. Eggs are an
excellent meat substitute and may be
prepared i'll a variety of ways. but
their present high price is prohibitive.
Persons who canno eat without meat
should buy the cheaper cuts, such as.
flank steak, rump and chuck roasts,
heart, liver and chuck steak. These
cuts contain the same amount CT nu-
trlment as the more expensive cuts.
but are not so tender. In order tt
make the cheaper cuts of meat d. sta
bic they should be cooked slowly at Il
low temperature. Stewing is prefer
able. Seasoning with highly favored
vegetables and spices improves the
flavor.
