HOW YOU CAN HELP WIN THE WAR By the Division of Intelligence Publicity Columbia University

THE MEDICAL MAN

Every one with meSical knowledge can do a good bit to help win the war.
 Outside of the Red Cross, the needs of the army, the navy, and the off cers reserve for men with medical training are imperative. Physicians in the medical section of the officers reserve corps will have to be in creased in number by more than 10000 if we have war of any length
 For this medical section there are no prescribed age limits. Applicants over 60 may be admitted for reason. All who apply must be physically fit. Examinations designed to deter mine profession and physical fit ness for war service will be given at the discretion of the surgeon-general There will be no examination in gen eral education.
 Physicians between the ages of twenty-one and thirty-two may ap- ply for commissions in the medical corps of the army or the navy. Af- ter physical test, a course. at the

 Students in medical schools would do we'll to remain at their studies. They must be adequately trained to take the places of those called for war duty They will find chances for vacation service as Red Cross in- structors, or in laboratories.
 Dentists in their routine practice have been organized for service. The Preparedness League of American Dentists has a membership of 20.- O00 The teeth of recruits will be repaired free of charge.
 If you have ability in chemistry, pathology, or bacteriology, the best thing to do is to get in touch with the laboratory where you were trained.

AN OFFER FROM CHINA

When the Germans said the United States could do nothing belligerent in the war that was not being done while the country neutral they may have believed it. though they have changed their minds since but everybody believed that Chinese declaration of could not be much more than a form
 Now, however, comes the Chinese Six Companies more formally but not we'll known the Chinese Benevolent Association, and offers to bring to the United States half million Chinese aborers for farm work and to send them back to China when their work is done
 How real this assistance would be if there should be a serious labor shortage in this country, may be judged by the fact that in desperation have returned the barbarc practice of forcing con- quered peoples to labor and releasing fighting Germans for the trenches
 However only an emergency of dire necessity, such for instance the calling of millions of Ameri. cans to arms would the acceptance of the Chinese offer.

VICTORIES OF PEACE

That peace also hath her victories and business her heroes is evidenced by the circumstance that Valdez has forgotten to take advantage of every opportunity offers pay tribute to the memory of Sam Blum, for years her foremost citizen And Sam Blum's victories those of peace. He was an organizer and practical worker in the contest make Alaska bigger and to make room in her fol people.
 Here is what the Valdez Miner recently said o Sam Blum in commenting upon things in its home town:
 "The unexpected death of Sam Blum early this year. removed from sphere of usefulness the greatest friend and booster that Valdez has had. The city has been blessed with many influential friends in the States, but Sam Blum lowered head and shoulders above the when it to working ceasingy and devotedy for the upbuildng of the town Never discouraged, with his brilliant mentality bent upon making mighty city out of mining camp he passed to his grave mourned by all who knew him for the work that shall live long time after his name is but memory Some day citi- may recognize the good that he has done and contribute toward memorial to be erected in park in this town. Until then his kind words and deeds will remain green in the memory of those who knew him best"

CORN AND THE COOK

 Right where "Tama Jim" Wilson.

DESTRUCTIVE ECONOMY

 The time may come in the United States as it has come to England and France when patriotism de- mands that prosperous people old clothes. But that time has not yet arrived and not in sight
 On the contrary, that economy which is de- s1rabe for the conservation of food destructive when applied to other commodities. Attention has al. ready been drawn by clubwomen to the hardships now being endured by private dressmakers. The de- cision of some wellto-do to economize has fallen heavily upon this class of workers
 The same tendency, if carried to other fields might have an unfortunate effect America does not need now to divert its makers munitions factories America does emphaticaly need to keep it's garment makers employed. The line must be sharply drawn between the which and the econ omy which wastes
 The organization of society is maintained in an equilibrium too delicate to experiments of this Kind. TO refuse employment capriciously to hoard commodities which are actually plentiful is not ser. vice to the nation Only going be pros porous.

 VERDICT OF JURY

w. N. c. Waddleton, coored resi- dent Of Juneau, on trial charged with circulating seditious literature, was found guilty by jury late yes terday. Waddleton will not be sen fenced until the return of District Attorney James A. Smiser from Ket- chikan and in the meantime has been released on his own recogniz- ance.
 According to the testimony, Wad- dleton received number of Socialist magazine through the mail which contained an article urging the work CTS and members of that party to or sanize to resist conscription and al so to support strikes and use other means of embarrassing the Govern ment. He handed one of the maga- zines to George Irving. who read part of the article and warned Wad. dleton that the article was seditious and that he would be subject to ar rest if he gave them out
 Later Waddleton gave copies of the magazines to two other men and stated to one of them that he was distributing them to customers.
 The jury was instructed that the question of intent did not apply to the case, the question merely being one of evidence as to whether he did give the magazines out or not and whether the article was seditious or not. The jury was convinced that both were the case and returned verdict accordingly
