Grafton Friday evening at the Augusta
General hospital, following an opera
ton for an infected hand. At the sec
ond operation it was found necessary
to amputate the left arm just below
the shoulder. His condition Sunday
was reported to be fairly favorable.
Young Fowler's initial injury was of a
minor nature and consisted of sticking
a tack in his left hand about two
weeks ago, and was thought but little
of until some days afterward the hand
began to swell badly. He was taken to
the hospital and an operation per-
formed, this being followed by tenn
porary improvement, but subsequent
~ dangerous symptoms developed and
the amputation became imperative.

PEACE PETITIONS
BEING CIRCULATED
American Neutral Conference
Committee Is Active
Central Federated Union Of Greater
New York Appoints Emergency
Committee to Cooperate

The Central Federated Union of great
er New York has Joined hands with the
American Neutral Conference Committee
in an effort to rouse and crystalline pub
lie opinion in the support of President
Wilson's peace overtures. At its last
meeting the union appointed an emer-
gency peace committee consisting OF
Ernest Bohm, secretary of the Central
Federated Union; Rudolph Modest, gem
eral organizer of the Amalgamated Meat
Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North
America, and William Kelly, business
representative of the Coppersmiths Un-
ion. This committee will cooperate
with the American Neutral Conference
Committee in gathering great volume
of public opinion so that President Will
son will feel assured of adequate sup
port in any effort he may make.
Hasten the Day of Peace.
The American Neutral Conference
Committee is the one organization in
America formed for the express pur-
pose of doing everything possible to
hasten the day of a permanent peace.
1t has had in circulation for a number
of months petition urging the pres-
dent to invite the belligerents to state
the terms on which they would be will
ing " DeSlH peace negotiations NOW
that this step has been taken, the COM
mittee is throwing the entire weight or
its influence behind the presidents ac-
tion. 1t believes that now, if ever in
our history, the voice of the American
people should be heard clearly and un-
mistakably in behalf of justice and hui
manity. The president has taken a far
reaching step and the least that Amer
lea can do is to stand solidly with him
in this critical hour when he is trying
to restore peace to the world.
Petitions Sent Broadcast.
Organized labor in Brooklyn, in Seat
tie and thruout the state of California
has indorsed the petition. From the
ranks of labor everywhere have come
loyal workers who have helped to Sc
cure the thousands OF names which have
already been signed. Now an appeal is
being made to every central labor coun.
ell in the United States, to join in a
widespread and rapid-fire circulation OF
the petition within the next few weeks
1t is expected that many of the councils
will follow the lead taken by the Cen,
trail Federated Union of New York in
appointing an emergency committee to
help at this crucial moment. The peti-
tion revised to meet the rapidly chang.
ing conditions is as follows:
"TO OUR GOVERNMENT
I'VE, the undersigned citizens of the
United States of America, are gratefully
conscious of the import of the steps
already taken in the direction of a ne.
gotiated peace. We earnestly urge our
government to use all available means
towards the speedy establishment of a
Just and enduring peace which shall
promote the common interests of all
mankind"
