Better Health In England.
From the Milwaukee journal.

From the Milwaukee Journal.
Although the people of England are
doing vastly more work and on the
whole better work per capita than they
ever have done before. at least under
the factory system of production, the
amount of sickness has been steadily
reduced from the beginning of the war.
the number Of days lost from produce
the efforts has persistently diminished,
the product per capita has increased
almost ~unbelievably. Finally, the state
ment tina the average physical condi-
ton of British men, women and chill
dren has vastly improved is confirmed
by the most casual observations Of the
people as they are seen day by day.
The whole explanation may be given
In two words: Better wages. which
improved food conditions. at
least sufficient money to buy the food
necessary to sustain the physical body.
The average physique of the British
people had been observed for q long
time to be seriously d~eteriorating. In
1914 the average cost for all women
getting the benefits of the national in
surance fund was S cents a week. In
1915 It fell to 3 cents. in 1916 to 2~cents.
ana although the figures for 1917 have
not been made up It 10 certain that
there has been another important de.
crease.

A Word About Coal.
FrOm the Century.

tTOW the century.
The people of the United States
must save this year So 200, 900 tons
Of coal out of what would other
wise be their ordinary consump-
ton. for the war has made it
necessary to furnish to ourselves and
u allies 100, 900, 900 more tor Of coal
than the country normally produces.
Not more n half of that demand can
be met by increase Of production. In
the circumstances, however, a shovel
full or a ton Of coal saved is as good as
o shovelful or a ton mined; therefore
the duty, indeed the necessity, is
other 506,ooo,ooo tons. Upon the saving
depends in part the winning Of the war.
In the homes Of the country much
can be done in the task Of saving Co.
900, 900 tons Of coal. If every house,
holder in the land would saw one small
shovelful Of coal per day. the saving
tons. o. almost one-third Of the whole
amount. II every householder would
save one furnace shOvelful Of coal per
day 1t would amount to 5000, 900 O
In kitchen stoves and household fur
naces there usually Is great waste in
the use Of coal.
Proper control Of the hampers is one
Of the chief secrets of economical heat
ing. Keeping the heating surfaces
clean Is another important matter, for
SCOT is even more effective as a nom
conductor Of heat than asbestos.
Smoke passages must be kept clean.
Oil stoves and fireless cookers should
b. used as coal savers as far as prac-
ticable. Most American houses are
~cverheated and their inmates will have
better health and pal will be conserved
If their temperature is not allowed to
rise above 68. Weather strips, double
windows. extra radiators. and heating
drums in stove pipes will pay for them
selves in the lessened consumption Of
coal that will result. and there will also
be achieved an important saving.

Court Decides The Draft Law.

Men called in the draft can be sent any

The action Of the court upholds the Sc
lective Draft law in every particular.
The right Of Congress to conscript men
for foreign service was attacked by Robert
Cox. Kansas City draftee, sent to Camp
Funston. He asked for a writ Of habeas
corpus directing Mai. Gen. Leonard Wood.
in command Of the camp. to release him
from service on the ground that there was
no constitutional right to compel him to
fight in foreign lands. This was denied
by the Kansas court.
Chief Justice White, in announcing the
decision. also denied the motion to hold
General Wood in contempt for sending Cox
TO France while his case was pending.
The court also censured Cox's attorneys
for their briefs in the case. which the Gov
ernment charged were "scandalous and
seditious."
IL was also asked that the briefs be
stricken from the court files.

President ProcIaims Week For
Giving To The Red Cross.

President Wilson has issued a procla
nation designating the week beginning
May goth as Red Cross Week" and call
ing upon the American people to con
tribute generously to the second $1,000,
900 war fund Of the American Red Cros:
for the alleviation of suffering among the
American troops in France and their de-
pendents. and among the fighting forces
and civilian populations Of the Allied
countries. The proclamation follows:
"lnasmuch as the war fund OF 1917 so
generously contributed by the American
people to the American Red Cross for the
administration Of relief at home and
abroad. has been practically exhausted
by appropriations for the welfare Of the
men in our military and naval forces, and
for those dependent upon them, and for
the yet more urgent necessities Of our
allies, military and civilian, who have
long borne the brunt OF war;
And. inasmuch as the American Red
Cross has been recognized by law and in
ternational convention as the public in
strumentality for war relief;
And. inasmuch as the year OF our own
participation in the war has brought un-
precedented demands upon the patriotism
and liberality OF our people. and made evil
dent the necessity OF concentrating the
work Of relief in one main organization,
which can respond effectively and uni
versally to the needs Of humanity under
stress of war;
And. inasmuch as the duration Of the
war and the closer and closer cooperation
Of the American Red Cross with our own
army and navy. with the governments Of
our allies and with foreign relief organi-
cations have resulted in the discovery Of
new opportunities Of helpfulness under con-
ditions which translate opportunity into
duty;
And. inasmuch as the American Red
Cross War Council and its commissioners
in Europe have faithfully and economically
administered the peoples trust.
Now. therefore. by virtue of my au-
thority as President Of the United States
and president Of the American Red Cross,
!, Woodrow Wilson. do hereby proclaim
the week beginning May goth, 1918. as
Red Cross Week"

Sale OF Bonds May Be Four
Billions.

Analysis Of Liberty Loan reports show
that probably 100000 persons bought
bonds in the campaign which closed last
Saturday night 100000 more than in
the second loan and 12,5OO,000 more
than in the first.
Latest tabulations showed So, ,3l6, $685.
ESQ reported subscriptions. but the Treas
ury now believes the actual total, which
may run to $4,000, 100000. will not be
definitely known until May l3. four days
after the individual banks are required to
report to Federal Reserve banks
Whatever the money total the loan just
closed probably is the most successful ever
floated by any nation. The marvellous dis
tribution Of the third Liberty Loan indicates
that one out of every six persons in the
United States may have participated in
this loan.
Banks resources, it was pointed out, have
been drawn on comparatively little to make
the loan a success. and the prospects for
future loans are brighter as a consequence.
An added reason for jubiiation among
Treasury officials is the indication that the
Government bond buying habit is becom-
ing stronger among people Of small means,
and that they probably will invest more
heavily in the fourth loan next fall
