People fleeing on foot, in cars, in
wagons and every conceivable meth
cd were cut down in their tracks.
The tales told by the survivors are
heart breaking. Duluth, in the &C
customed northern Minnesota way,
although being hit hard itself, came
promptly to the rescue and opened
it's doors, hospitals and public places
to the homeless, destitute and in
jured. Governor Burnquist, State
Auditor Preuss, Adjutant Rhinow
and other state officers fastened to
the stricken district with supplies and
lent their valuable aid in bringing
order out of chaos. From all over
the nation have come offers OF assist
ance. The work of rebuilding has
already begun and it is up to you and
I, who are safe and sound, to lend
every possible assistance to an
afflicted people. Get busy.

PLACING COST MARK
ON GOODS NOT BEST
TO SERVE PURPOSE

PHOENIX. Nov. While he has
no knowledge of the action of what
may be taken by the state council of
defense. OF which he is chairman.
Charles E. Adams yesterday stated
his own opinion regarding the recent
" adopted resolution regarding the
council regulating the marking of
cost prices on merchandise offered for
sale.
In view of the fact that the suspen-
sion OF the rule indeterminately and
for period of no less than 80 days,
was passed by the council, and that
period having elapsed, Mr.. Adams
believes that the merchants OF the
state should be appraised OF his own
stand in the matter. He said:
While the state council of defense
is ultalterably opposed to profiteering
in every form. we do not believe that
the resolution adopted August Is. and
indefinitely suspended at the septem-
Der meeting. is the best method of
eliminating it. As shown by the state
ment of Arthur w. MacMahon, assist

ton OF the council of defense. publish
ed in yesterdays paper. the placing of
both cost and sale price on shoes was
considered impfacticable by the war
industries board. | am confident that
no action will be taken by the state
council in this matter that does not
conform with the policy outlined by
the national government"
Mr.. Adams will represent this state
at the general meeting of state chair
men in Washington November IL and

tant questions having to do with non

The American people, therefore, having supported
the Liberty loan with patriotism that future historians
will love to extol will have opportunity to show the
patriotism in financing the just and conclusive vic

Not for moment, however, is the treasury acting on
any assumption that peace is to Until peace
actually assured the attitude of the treasury and the
attitude of the whole United States for
the vigorous prosecution of the war; and the motto
of force against Germany without stint limit will be
acted upon until peace is an absolute accomplished fact
