RED CROSS NOTES.
DEFENDING THE RED CROSS


Every Dollar received by the Red
Cross it spends for relief work-and a
little more besides This is not due to
any special necromancy, but to the fact
that most of the service in the organi-
zatlon is voluntary and the interest on
the deposited funds more than meets
the necessary expenses. This fact with
great many others in answer to crlti-
cisms passed on the Red Cross, was
stated by Mr.. Henry P Dawson, the
head of the American Society, at the
New York Hippodrome, on Sunday,
December 16.
at is German propaganda, and it
is very prevalent and fervent in the
East. moreso than in the West, and it
goes much like this: Did you know
that Mr.. So-and-so told me last night
that Mrs. So-and SO SAID that Mr.. So
and-so had been told by Mrs. So-and-so
such and such thing about the Red
Cross? Ofcourse | did not believe 1t, but
is just what he said.
Now that is nothing more than Ger
man propaganda. 1t is going to be
stopt, not because of any authority ex-
ercised by the Red Cross, but because
the public are going to demand that 1t
must stop. Whatever else anybody is
going to do in this country, If the peo-
pie know it, they are not going TO con-
tribute to German propaganda.

BURIAL CHARGE
BY NJ 'MAHON
Accuses Reporter of Being
Stacker When Such Is
Farthest From Truth.

At Liberty Hall last night City Attor-
ney W w. McMahon made a personal
and unwarranted attack during the
course of his remarks on Harold Cross
a reporter for THE TINES. for which he
has been roundly criticized by many
who heard It.
Mcmahon said that Young Cross was
hiding behind the skirts OF woman TO
keep out Of the army"
The attack on Cross was brutal. He
has a wife and two babies and another
little one coming with absolutely no
other support or income than that pro-
vided by his earnings. They are abso-
luteIy dependent on him.
Mr. Cross has no desire or intention
to evade military service. He expects
to 90 in the class to which the govern
ment has seen fit to assign him and
would be glad to go sooner If able to
make proper provision for his family
The remarks of the city attorney last
evening were a reflection on every man
in the draft who has wife and children
and is in Class 4 If it were not for
the fact that it is an insult to hundreds
of Hammond men it would not be worth
replying TO.
The war work Of Cross in Hammond
and his war activities have been varied
and laborious. Indeed few men in Ham
mond have been more necessary in war
work than he has in this vicinity
At least Cross is not wanted for child
desertion.
On April r. 1915 an affidavit was
filed by Blanche Mcmahon charging
James Donald Mcmahon. son Of the
present city attorney. with failure to
support his children. The warrant was
issued by the state and bond fixed at
$1,000 Young" McMahon must have
skipped for the warrant has not been
served as yet. according to the court

AN OPEN LETTER
To The PUBLIC

We entered the refining business only
after the most careful Investigations.
and we associated with US three Of the
best posted oil operators in the United
States We have placed ample resources
behind this business, and have adopted
The most conservative policies. 1 have
personally talked to some OF the eNecu-
tives Of the largest companies in the
oil industry. and they have told me
that with the policies we have inaugur-
ated in this company and with the good
business judgment we propose TO use. we
cannot help but make a great success
Of the Studebaker Oil and Refining Com
pany.
You may probably wonder why we
come TO YOU with an offer to join us
rather than finance this thing ourselves
For the very reason that Uncle sam
comes TO you 10 finance the war, be-
cause he does not have sufficient cash
capital TO do It himself Do you realize
that the majority Of the stocks of such
enterprises as the railroads. United
States Steel Corporation. Standard OIL
Company. the great independent oil
panies. and the Stude baker Corpora
ton Of South Send are owned by the
general public. and it is their support
which has made these corporations the
great success they are today?
In addition to this, the dominant rea-
son which dictates our offer OF an allot-
uent of these shares to the public. is
that we want the good viii Of the
American people towards the Stude-
baker Oil and Refining Company. We
want the good Will Of the people in
buying "Studebaker' oil products. which
will shortly come from Studebaker re-
hneries. This is an advertising value
which is worth millions OF dollars. and
the only way to set this asset is 70
distribute the ownership cf the business
among thousands Of investors all over
the country.
We have entered an industry which IS
encouraged by the government, because
our people need the oil and gasoline.
There Will be a shortage of over a mil
lion barrels of crude oil this year. The
government has just opened 5000 900
acres of reserved land in the west for
tho development Of oil. There Is no
better business which you can imagine
IN then 10 get behind the production
and refining OF more oil TO help defeat
the Huns.
The studebaker Oil and Refining Com
pany has tangible assets Of S1.SO0.000
We have under consideration other pro-
ducing properties and five reaneries. to
The value of more than $4,000 600.
The company proposes to shortly IN
stall chain Of "Studeba5er" distribut-
ing stations. extended across the con-
tinent. fed by trains Of "Studebaker''
tank cars and tank trucks. This service
is tremendously profitable and is prac-
ically in its infancy today.
We VIII say to all who join US in this
en- erprise that It matters not whether
YOU have invested with US 500 or $40
coo, you viii get fair treatment and
value received on your investment
I firmly believe that before year has
passed our stock Will be worth double
its par value.
With my very best wishes. I am.
