board complied with the orders of
County superintendent Shinkle and
all the students were sent home Mon
DAY morning, with instructions, not
TO return until further orders.
While the influenza situation in
many towns OF the county is serious,
Pullman had almost completely ban

satisfaction at the sweeping adict
was expressed.
Attendance figures compiled by
superintendent }. w. Graham indi-
cate that the attendance for the

GAUZE QUOTA COMPLETED

The surgical dressings department
OF the local Red Cross will soon be
closed as the last quota of gauze
work was completed and shipped last
week. However, it may be necessary
to call a force of workers just for a
day occasionally, in order to have
pneumonia Jackets to supply the To-
cal demand, as there are still u mum
Der. of calls each week for these gar
ments. Last Saturday the supply
was found to be almost exhausted,
but a crew of women responded Mon
day afternoon and a good supply is
now on hand at Red Cross head
quarters.
A number Of articles that were
loaned to the gauze room will 10
taken to headquarters, where owners
can get them. There are several
aprons belonging to private parties, a
number of table knives, flatirons and
several silver thimbles. Owners are
requested to get these as soon as
possible.

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
OF THE RED CROSS
Will BE Held December 10 to De-
cember 23--ObiectiVe Is TO
Enroll Every Resident of
Whitman County

The Christmas Roll Call (member-
ship driye) of the Red Cross has
been fixed for the week of December
l6 to 23 inclusive. VIM. Goodyear
of Pullman has been appointed to
manage the drive in Whitman county
and S. NJ. McCroskey of ColfaX will
again act as secretary. The cam
paign is to be conducted by the mem
bers of the Red Cross branch or
auxiliary in each community and the
objective will be the enrolment of
every resident OF the county as a
member of the organization for the
ensuing year. Buttons and service
flags will be issued and each one
who pays the membership fee of 81
will be entitled to receive ten Red
Cross Christmas seals.
While the chairman of each
branch will plan the details of the
drive in the district covered by the
branch and its auXlllarles, IL is suS-
gested that one day during the week
be fixed as Registration Day" on
which every one be asked to enlist
in the great humanitarian army,
which must back up the boys who
registered for ard were called into
military service. They have won a
glorious victory, bat it remains for
the Red Cross to garner the full
fruits Of their sacrifices by binding
up the wounds and ministering to the
needs of our allies and the suffering
nations which have been freed from
the yoke of the central powers.
Whitman county has made splen-
did response to every patriotic call
during the war. Let's complete the
record By 100 per cent enrolment
i'll the Red Cross.
When the boys came home a Red
Cross button will be to them an evil
dence OF Apr 5ciation of the sacri-
fices which they have made for u.s.

Dietz classified himself as being
born in Dakota. On bis registration
card he said he was an Indian, not q
citizen. In his QUESTIONABLE he says
he is white, Indian. In answering
the question, DO you claim exemp
ton from service in the army OF the
United States on the ground of not
being citiZen?" he answers Yes.
This man received his allotment,
was educated at Carlisle and every
thing he has he owes to the United
States government, but still he de-
nies the land that gave him birth.
Now what are we going to do with
man of that type? The alien or de-
serter is not in 1t with him. He
either puts the dollars before our
country (for he has none), or he did
not have the nerve to take the same
chance that thousands of our brave
boys did.
/ want to draw comparison: Our
little patriot, Seaton Mitchell, who
was not yet 10 years OF age and who
was laid to rest November 2s, died
in an attempt to serve the country
that was dear to him. | refer to this
boy because he came to me and asked
me what department he could get in
10 to get overseas the quickest. Quite
some difference the attitude OF this
young boy and this man-one trying
to serve his country by getting into
the army and the other trying TO
eyade military service by classifying
himself as not being a citizen.
II he is not citizen of this coun-
try in which he was born, then he
must be man without country,
for he surely could not be a citizen
of any other country, not having left
the shores of the United States.
| can understand how there is
quite a difference standing on the
sidelines coaching a bunch of our
boys or even participating In the
game himself, than going against

What should BE Done With

The following communication pub

To the Editor OF the Spokesman
Review:
Your editorial December 3, with
the following heading, No Jobs for
Alien Slackers, strikes me just as
torcibly as it does the Idaho Lumber
company and yourself There surely
should be no place for them, rot only
in the United States, but also in our
friend and ally's coGntry, Canada.
You say: Morally the aliens were
under as much obligation to go to
war as the natives" No question
about it. Then you say: 1T was
even worse for these who had de-
clared their intentions to become citi-
zens and then renowned their rights
forever rather than enter the mill
tary service OF their country"
But, is it not still worse when
man who was born in the United
States will classify himself Us not be-
ing citizen or an alien? You can
hardly conceive of man doing such
thing, but it is a fact, nevertheless,
and he is now enjoying lucrative
position with the government.

The members Of the state public

hearing on the proposed new tariff
schedule by the Washington Water
Power company, which, if ratified by

Increase in rates for commercial

from the chamber of commerce, from
the standpoint that the proposed

company and granted by the city has
seven years yet to run and antedates
