Government Calls for
1910 Workers

A new call has come for Della
ware to meet in carrying out the
wishes Of the Government. The
State Council of Defense has been
asked to assist the United States
Employment Bureau in securing an
army of 1910 unskilled workers.
Delaware's quota. Acute labor
shortages are increasing in all
factories making war materials.
The Midvale Steel Co. of Coates
vile, Pa, has been forced to close
part Of it's plant due to a lack of
labor. The supplying of Della
wares quota is imperative to war
production and the State must do
her duty. The 1910 men must come
from such businesses as those
which are not engaged in supply
ing the Government with materials
for the army and from those firms
which have positions now filled by
men whose places can be taken by
women. Men cannot, however, be
drawn from railroads, shipyards,
mines, farms or other essential war
industry. They will have to come
from the nOn-essential industries.
The United States Employment
Service Director for Delaware has
been given the responsibility of
filling this quota and the National
Council of Defense has urged upon
the Delaware State Council the as
sisting to recruit the men for this
labor call. The Federal Govern
ment is pushing the "work or
fight" movement and the Compul-
sorry Work Bureau of the State
Council Of Defense created over
two months ago and hard at work
ever since is ready to JnroW all its
efforts to assisting at this time.
Men who are not engaged on the
farm, on the railroad, or in the
Shipyard are asked to offer theil
services. 1t is hoped that a suflici
ent number will volunteer so thai
communicating men for this pur
pose will not be necessary. Tht
Government has put the matter VI
to the State and expects the mer
to be secured. Our new army mus
not be forced to face a iack o
equipment such as was apparen
last winter The United States En-
ployment Service is hoping for ;
ready response and is willing t.
give full details.

Milk as a Food

In the food consumed by the
average family milk and its pro-
ducts furnish 20 per cent of the
heat units; in fact, scarcely a meal
is served without some dairy pro-
duct. 1t is doubtful whether there
is a more widely used food in the
world than milk or some of its pro-
ducts.
Two facts stand cut prominently
as reasons for the increased pro-
duction and use Of milk. The first
is that milk as purchased on the
market usually supplies food ma
ter.al together with the growth
producing elements more econo-
mically than either meat or eggs.
The second reason is that the dairy
cow is the most economical pro-
ducer of animal food. One great
law of food conservation is to turn
inedible feeds into edible foods in
the cheapest possible manner. The
dairy COW will utilize coarse ma,
terials, inedible to humans-such
as grass, corn-stalks, hay, etc
and will turn them into milk Other
farm animals also arc cOnverterl
of coarse rOughage into edible
foods, but are not so efficient as the
dairy COW.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
OF J. w. SUDDARD
Published by Chicago Inter
Ocean

The following sketch is taken from
the history Of Chicago, Its Men and
Institutions, Biographical Sketches
Of Leading Citizens, published by The
Inter Ocean.
President Joseph Wenham SuddarI
Of the West Chicago park board, is
one of the successful men of com
merce in Chicago who was willing to
devote a portion of their energy and
ability to the service of the public.
OF energy Mr.. Suddard has an un-
limited supply and the records of
West Park Commission during his
administration, as we'll as his success
in the business world, attest to his
ability. For nearly quarter of
century he has lived in Chicago, hay
ing taken up his residence in Lawn
dale when part of the city was but
scantily-peopled suburb. He was
born in Sydenham, Ontario, Septem-
Der 4, 1855. Joseph Wenham, at that
time president of the Bank of Upper
Canada, at Montreal, was a close
friend Of the Suddard family, and, by
an odd coincidence, he who, was des-
tined to prominence among Chicago's
| bankers, was named after the fore
| most financier Of Canada.
Thus far Mr.. Suddard's life has
been one Of ceaseless activity. As a
| youth he spent the days from early
spring until late fall in farm work,
| studying in the evenings and attend
ing school during the winter. At the
age of twenty he came to Chicago, but
feeling the need of further educa-
tlonal advantages, returned to his
native land, and, after a successful
season of phosphate mining, qualified
as teacher, and thus worked his way
through higher branches of study. In
| 1880 he again came to Chicago, and on
the 22d of February, 1882, was mar
ried to Miss Victoria, a daughter of
Samuel Youmans, Esq, of Frontenac,
Ontario
For nearly nine years Mr.. Suddard
has been identified with the Ameri
can Trust and Savings Bank, where
he now holds the responsible position
Of trust officer. In February, 1897
he accepted the appointment as West
Chicago park commissioner, and two
months later was elected president Of
the board, three times since having
been called upon to succeed himself in

BELIEVES THAT RUSSIANS WILL
 RE-ENTER WAR

LONDON, May g. - Captain Jean Seba of the Czech-Slovak army, who has just reached London from the Russian port on the Murman coast has been engaged for several months in organizing a Czech-Slovak army in Russia, composed mainly of men who were formerly in the Austrian army and became prisoners in Rus sia. In an interview with the Asso- ciated Press he said:
 ''Our army in Russia is so far a small one, but the men having been formerly in the Austrian army, are well trained and are thoroughly ac- quainted with the organization and methods of the enemy.
 My observations in Russia during the past few months convince nfe that for the present Russia is like a sick person who needs breathing space and rest cure. I am sure she will again come into the war But it is of prime importance that the Russian invalid should not be deserted by his friends or left to his fate.
 With the help of the allies, Russia can be brought back. There is al ready plenty of evidence of Q reac- ton. The working classes are begin ming to realize that if Germany is per mitted to go on, everything will be lost. All over the country there are local Soviets and other organizations which will never give in to German influences" ,as.

the post office authorities when the war began. The employees of the postoffices along the line of the sub way have just raised protest against the use of the boring for this pur- pose, asserting that it should be re- served for use as an afraid shelter for postal employees.
 Should postal workers or mum mics use the subway afraid shel- ter?" asks the POstman's Gazette in it's latest issue. Tt is nothing short of scandal that relics of doubtful value should get choice positions in this subway while access is denied to members of the postoffice staff in time of emergency.
 "We find a government doing all in it's power to provide for the safety of the shriveled remains of the ancients at the risk of human lives. We have no concern for all that is left of the pharaohs and Cleopatra. They had their time on earth many centuries ago"
