stance, to say nothing Of smoking and
drinking. A little reduction on all OF
these and the proceeds turned to an en-
tirely new habit would be mighty
good thing at this time. And for that
nth habit am going to propose the
Red Cross-the Red Cross habit, II you
please. 1t will be habit the gathered
money OF which will go to the credit,
not Of yourself. but of the greatest
charity that America ever has known,
which makes this new habit more than
q habit--a real virtue-the virtue OF
self sacrifice
Our Country the Richest
Try being ready for the Red Cross
collector-not merely the next time he
comes, but on each subsequent call.
Do not face hiE1 with the reproachful
suggestion that he has seen you be-
fore. Our country is a big land, in
many ways the biggest and richest in
the world, but 1t is not big enough nor
rich enough that folks with money can
escape with but a single invitation to
contribute.
That is why 1 suggest the Red Cross
habit-the continuous setting aside Of
definite sums of money by patriotic
Americans against the Red Cross
drives. 1t is habit which I cannot
! commend too heartily to you.

SHOE PRICE FIXING
PLAN is ABANDONED
Style Conservation Features
viii Remain in Force.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1e.-Abandonment
Of the recently adopted ehoe schedule.
which provided for classification of
grades and flxed prices ranging from 50
to SIT, was announced to-day by the
War Industries Board. Conservation
features OF the programme which were
agreed to by the Industry will continue
in force.
This action was agreed upon, officials
Of the board said. "in order that the
fullest opportunity be given for the use
OF raw material released from the Gov
eminent war programme"
Increased production and competition
are counted upon to regulate price
levels.
Decision to continue conservation re-
strictions on styles and standards was
at the request of the industry TO pre-
vent waste OF material, labor and cap
ital.
The abandoned schedule OF prices was
as follows:
Class C-From 50 to $3.50, Glass z
from $3.50 TO $3.50 and Class A from
$3.50 to s12.

With fair knowledge OF the eastern
problem your country can achieve great
and noble ends"
The host OF the evening. Mr. Cald-
we'll. greeted the representatives of Eu-
ropes new republics as fellow citizens"
Mr.. Caldwell lie the president Of a U.s.
100000 manufacturing corporation. He
saw a great opportunity for the infant
nations at whose delivery the Allies and
the United States are in attendance to
lead tho way in social and Industrial
freedom. He said:
we here with our $40 years OF polit-
ical freedom have but the faintest glim-
merings Of Industrial freedom. Except
In a relatively few instances, where
labor unions interfere, our employers
arbitrarily regulate wages Of employees.
In general, we violently oppose the idea
Of giving employees any voice in de-
termining their own working conditions
We fail to safeguard their health. then
obatruct the enactment and operation OF
child labor and workingmen's compen-
sation laws.
we govern industrislly without con-
suiting the governed. All this and
many more things we do or fail to do,
with a full knowledge that Germany
has a vast system in operation here. as
she had in Russia. for fostering discon-
tent Tho principle OF cooperation and
copartnership between capital and labor
must supplant the theory OF capital vs..
labor II we are to successfully meet
this issue.
III we fail to profit by the example Of
Russia our blood will be on our own
heads And CEecho-Slovakia and Po-
land must meet and solve these ques-
tons too for their very existence.
''If We make men free industr1ally and
politically. they will be free spiritually.
There will then be less incentive to
fratricidal strife
"If these new republics practise even
handed Justice within their gates and
b-yond their borders they will DO to
the Near and Far East a veritable
star OF Bethlehem END great will be
their influence and prestige far and
near"

REPUBLICANS HALT
QUARREL IN SENATE
Standpatters and Progressives
Try to Smooth Out
Differences.
Special Despatch to TEE srr.

WAsHINGToN. Nov. 1s.--The dove Of
peace came out Of hiding to-day and
started back toward the Republican
camp in tho Senate. All the threatened
row between the standpat and progress
slve wings of the party appears to be
ripe for being smoothed out and all the
troubles between the factions fixed UP
now
The Norris resolution TO prevent
chairrnen of the big committees from
being among the ranking two or three
on other big committees, thus giving h
dozen Senators Of the Old Guard O
stransle hold on all legislation when the
Republicans are in the majority next
year. may be put through or may not.
1t doesn't matter. according to Repub-
lican leaders In the Senate. because the
Senators affected have no desire to keep
this sort OF control.
Another question which has been
troubling the Republicans a good deal
has ceased to WORRY them now too.
That Is the sudden activity OF the Demo-
cratic Committee on Privileges and
Elections III Questioning the validity of
the election Of three Republican Sena-
tors and the fitness OF another to hold
a seat in the Senate.
Information seepinG into the Itenub-
lican camp to-day indicated to them that
this action is more or less OF a grand
stand play by the Democrats. the end Of
which will be an apparently magnani-
nous refusal of the present Democratic
ms iority to try to change the COM
pleNion OF the next Senate. 1t was
pointed out to those Republican Senators
VIII" raw" ilAAn re~"ous nDout the con-
tested elections that the Republican
Governors In the States from which these
Senators come can easily and quickly
appoint other Republicans to the Senate
II they ere ousted.
But the Democrats are not going to
do this the G. Q. p. leaders have been
told. Their course Is merely LAYING
down a barraee with the hope Of noder-
ating Republican prying into the
wastage in the conduct Of the war.
Their planned magma mimity in the wind
up OF the contest hearings they hope
to have reciprocsted by the Republicans
when they take ovA- the business of rum
ming Congress IN 1919.

 Tho men were marshaled in little groups under their corporals and they went to their stations just as they had done a dozen times in our drills aboard ship.
 The sound was exactly as I had seen it described many times in the newspa- pers-a dull thud as the torpedo struck the outside shell of the ship and then d muffled explosion somewhere far down below.
 T lay in a bunk with my cloths on, but got out immediately and stood at my station at the foot of the staircase. Soon after I got there I heard the sound of another explosion, which was accom- pafiied by the going out of ssiif lights.

 Mooney also made prblic a telegram to President Wilson advising him Of Mooney's efforts to avert threatened tie ups in war industries. Mooney told Presi- dent Wilson he opposed any action that might weaken the force of the latter's appeal to Governor Stephens in his be- half.
 Labor organizations were informed that Mooney disapproved of any steps which would ''iaterfere with the ovsnplete na- tional activities now going on" and that he was confident the attitude of the President, of labor and of the public would secure a new trial For him
