RED CROSS
III. NEWS NOTES

A recent cablegram from Carl
Taylor, temporary representa-
tive of the American Red Cross
in Switzerland, states that no
more effective and acceptable
way to give aid to the Swiss peo-
pie could be found than through
a substantial gift to the Swiss
Red Cross. :
The money donated by the
American Red Cross, it is under
stood, will be used for relief
work among the people and sol
diers Of Switzerland and for the
relief of Allied troops and civil
ians in transit from Germany
and Austria.
The Red Cross idea had it's
birthplace in Switzerland, but
there are substantial reasons, in
addition to the sentimental ones,
for extending aid to the Swiss
society as above indicated.
Postmaster Svedberg, of Ait
kin, Mimi, received a telegram
from the Postoffice Department,
Washington, D. c., to the effect
that Adam A. Gray, carrier on
a rural route, should be dismiss
ed from the government service.
Some time ago it was reported
to the authorities that Mr.. Gray
has refused to buy Liberty
bonds, to contribute to the Red
Cross, the Y. M. G. A., etc. A
postoffice inspector who was
sent to investigate the case Sc
cured from the offender a writ
ten statement fully setting forth
his views, the principal of which
was that the teachings of his re-
ligion were not in keeping with
using his money for such pur-
poses. 1t is evident that his dis
missal from service is due to
that fact.

One of the most s%addening features of the
present gladstone summer season is the afro
cious samples of original poetry which the Bis
marck Palladium persists in ~inflicting from
time to time upon it's host of otherwise eager
readers. Misguided efforts of that sort are most
admirably calculated to cause the innocent and
unsuspecting reader to so far forget himself as
to almost vote the j%errybacon ticket or indulge
in any other mild sort of midsummer madness.

INFLUENZA ATTACKS JAckEys.

ICorrespondence Associated Press
An Irish Port, July 17.-(By Mail)-
The theory that the strange epidemic OF
a peculiar type OF influenza which has
swept Europe, attacked only those who
we're run down" because of lack OF
proper food. was exploded when tne
disease threatened to take hold among
officers and men at this American de-
stroyer base. Aside from American SOL
diers, the American sailors are probably
the best fed persons in Europe but the
disease attacked several score of them
here and for a week or 80 disrupted
crews assignments. It has virtually
disappeared now.
The disease is not dangerous if taken
In hand quickly enough and it has left
no ill effects at the destroyer base. II
has the popularity, however, OF weak
ening the victim In a few days as much
as the average illness will in twice the
time consequently it requires several
days of fecuperation.
Victims suffer differently when the
disease first begins. Some suddenly
become dizzy and even faint. The most
prevalent symptoms, however are first
a cough, then terrific pains in the back
followed by fever and chill now and
then. Physicians say it is dangerous tc

Better War Bread Promised An Allies

Universal war bread of better quail
ity than last year for all the nations
fighting Germany, practically without
rationing, will be one of the chief re-
suits OF the food controllers confer
ences at London, Herbert c. Hoover,
American food administrator, an
nouinced to The Associated Press in
London. He added that there will be
ample supplies of fats and meat If the
populations are economical and avoid
waste.
''.rhe danger Of privation is now
passed. he declared. He said the peo-
pie of North American were now able
to take overseas the great bulk of food
supplies required and it would be pos
sible to curtail the total length of the
voyage necessary to carry these sup
plies to the European allies thus ef-
fectiRg considerable saving in tom
mage.
Mr.. Hoover said program had been
reached regarding the different COM
moditieS that are required, not only to
maintain the health but the comfort Of
the armies and civilian populations.
He appealed to the United States for
continued rigid economy in consump-
ton to meet the increased demands
of Europe and to enable us to carry
over from this years harvest stock
of foodstuffs that will form positive in
suraf1ce against any possible climatic
ventua1ities in the next harvest.

Army Medical Innovation.

For the first time in the history of
warfare says the New York Medical
Journal. mental hygiene as practtced
among the soldiers is given the .promi-
nence it deserves, and, profiting by the
experience of England and France II,
the present war, the surgeon general
was impelled to inaugurate an elaborate
organization, both in number and plan
to take care of any mental disturb
ances detected in the camps or aAone
the soldiers during, the war. This is a
distinct innovation in the army medt-
cal work, for the subjscts of mental
hygiene and Of mental ard nervous
diseases in general, as occurring among
soldiers in war time, were for many
reasons either slightly treated or neg
lected altogether"

over from this more abundant harvest
year stock of foodstuffs that will
form positive insurance against, any
possible climatic eventualities in the
next harvest.
arrangements have been made by
the four food controllers not only to
cover these matters of policy, but also
to provide for the erection of machin-
cry for continuous supervision of the
necessary operations. The food coun-
ell which is IA body that has just been
created, will be maintained in con-
tiruous session by means of having
representatives of each government
with their headquarters in London.
With the contamination of the
work initiated at this conference. there
will be a universal war bread of better

If our populations are economical AMI
avoid waste We will be able to build
up some stocks of cereals against tho
next harvest. and we shall save ton

voyage upon which food ships must be
sent.
"The coal miners of Europe are now
at the front, consequently this next
winter will be a period of great suf-
fering in Europe thru shortage OF
coal. If the people can have liberal
supplies of bread, meat, and fats. there
can be no fear of the morale among
the civil populations of the, Europeasi

people on this side. particularly in
