accused, who was a reporter for I'll

Before M. Cai1laux began his test

M. Caillaux denied emphatical1
that he had mentioned Marx in 1911
He said he had never heard of til
man until July, 1917, and then oni
when the Bonnet Rouge case was dill
cussed in the Chamber of Deputiel
1t was brought out that the name an
address Of Marx were found on a sli

NJ. Caillaux insisted on speakir
further however, saying:
"I have never given one franc

NJ. Cai1laux's testimony seemed
be disturbing to the accused, who in
mediately began to try to shift the r
sponsibility on each other. M. Ma

There was this negative consolation,
however that only three are believed
to have lost their lives, and not six as

to the contracting company's conclu-

collapse occurred whereas there were

PARCEL POST SHIPMENTS.
To Foreign Points Without Lii
cense from the War Trade
Board Not Permissible.

Mr.. w. T. Haley, special
agent for the War Trade Board,
has called the attention Of Post
master Schuckman to the fact
that there are going into Mex
leo by parcel post, without the
necessary preliminary license
from the War Trade Board,
many and varied shipments, and
that such shipments are in vio-
lation of law and the Presiden-
tial proclamation governing
trade with foreign lands.
Also the War Trade Board has
discovered that many shipments
are going in that way to parties
who are blacklisted and prohih-
tied from trading with anyone
in the United States. Under the
law all such transactions are
criminal and those guilty of
their perpetration are liable TO
heavy fine and Imprisonment, as
the following quotation from
the espionage act shows:
"Any person who shall export,
ship, or take out, or deliver, OF
attempt to deliver for export,
shipment, or taking out, any ar
ticle in violation of this title, or
Of any regulation or order made
hereunder, shall be fined not
more than $4,000, OF if a nat
ural person, imprisoned for not
more than two years, or both
and any article so delivered OF
exported, shipped, or taken out,
shall be seized and forfeited to
the United States; and any Of
ficer, director, or agent of 8
corporation who participates in
any such violation shall be lia-
Ible to like fine or Imprisonment,
or BOTH"
The War Trade Board has
been informed that in some in
stances postmasters, throuo
Ignorance, have informed ship
Ipers by parcel post that the es-
pionage act, as shown above,
dots not apply to parcel post
shipments; and with that idea
there has been a great increase
on shipments abroad by the
method mentioned. All such
shipments are prohibited, and

Employment of taste in the laying out of new residence districts need not be expensive. It is, in the highest sense, economical. It is possible to get far more attractive and beautiful homes at the prices we now pay for monotony and uginess and frequently for unsanitary dwellings. What is needed is to plan for these things as carefully as the manufacturer plans his factory or the railroad manager his system of tracks.

Below will be found the answer to the question which has been so in- sistently asked in the caption above It is q great pleasure to know from time to time just what is being accom- pished by the American Red Cross.
 The largest American Red Cross hospital farm in England is it Sails bury, Southampton, where consider able part of the 186-acre estate is un- der cultivation.
 One thousand wounded and eonvales- cent American soldiers played hosts to King George, Queen Mary and Prin- cess Mary at a big military hospital in Dartford. just outside London. recent ly. The royal visitors inspected Amer ican Red Cross activities at the hos pital. A good time was had by all.

 Greatest Opportunity to Help.
 The committee for Armenian and Syrian relief is asking for d fund of S30,000.0O0 This seems but a small amount when set over against the non Mohammedan populations of the coun- tries named in the appeal, and yet the committee assures us that this sum will have the most enormous power of alleviatiOn. It will not restore but it will provide the necessities of life to those who are for the moment unable to feed and clothe themselves.
 Every man who gives to this fund will have the satisfactiona of knowing that each dollar of his gift goes straight to its mark, affording almost instant relief to some poor soul who is physically suffering and in despair of the future. To send this relief will prove to them. and to the rest of the world, that we. the richest of nations, can be upon demand the most gener- ous of nations. If we do our part at this time we can make the Stars and Stripes not only respected, but beau tiful in the eyes of the citizens of those of pity and of healing, the symbol of hope and peace which our forefathers intended 1t to be.
