THRIFT STAMP ONE WAY
Avoiding Spending Of Money for IN

Wherever Possible is
Advocated.

Union labor men in Iowa have made
generous contributions in the war
revenue campaigns and with COM
plete knowledge Of the sacrifices that
their contributions have made neces-
sary, Fred A. Garfield. president Of
the Iowa federation, has issued an ap-
peal to the trades unionists of this
state.
Now, more than ever" says Presi.
dent Garfield, "one can speak with
pride if he belongs to some labor or
ganization. President Gompers Of the
American Federation Of Labor is lead
ing US along the right way. His coun-
sci and assistance to President Will
son must be of great aid in this, the
greatest hour OF our nations need.
Early in the beginning of this terrible
war he assured our president that la
Dor was with him to help win the war
for demoeracy-and his pledge has
been made good. Labor has responded
at every CALL With living commodity
prices soaring way out Of sight and
out of proportion to any increase in
wages, labor has still been patient and
responded to every call that has been

Boys Overseas, or Ready.

SSyS ONCi SSdSy VI T1Sd0ys
Our boys are somewhere in France
or are ready to CO. The members Of
labor organizations have sacrificed
and stinted themselves and their fam
lilies to purchase Liberty bonds, war
savings stamps, have donated to the
Red Cross and other meritorious war
measures, in many cases borrowing
the money to do so. The above can
truthfully be said of labor generally,
and especially is this true Of the Iowa
labor movement. 1t Is with a good
deal Of pride that review the activity
of the Iowa trades unionists. l do not
know of single instance where labor
has failed to do it's bit I can state
many instances where they have pur-
chased Liberty bonds in large quaint
ties. The two largest that come to
my attention are the United Mine
Workers, District No. 10, of Abba, and
the Hold Carriers and Building Labor
ers of Cedar Rapids. The first invest
ed $4,000, with many of their local
unions subscribing for smaller
amounts. The Cedar Rapids union
purchased $1,000 worth, and when you
consider that they are an unskilled
craft, this is really a wonderful patri-
otto act
II recently heard Senator Kenyon
say that each and every one of us
would not only have to do our bit
but that we would have to do more
than our bit We would have to do
until it hurt to do in order to win
this war, and win it we must.

The elimination of pain from

Terrific pain Ia almost always accom-
panied by what is known as shock, and
a condition Of collapse which prevents
the patient from eating. sleeping or

Is therefore lowered. sometimes to a
point from which it Is impossible for
him to rally, and 50 recovery Is greatly
retarded or the patient does not get

dressing of wounds in a thorough
manner and thus IL Is often difficult 10

Young Edwards is an American citi-
zen, born in milwaukee,, whose home
was In California. Letters from Gen
eral Nivelle and countless italian and
French surgeons and patients, which
he has brought back to this country,
tell of the complete success of his
treatment on exposed nerves, badly
burned surfaces, amputations and
deep flesh rounds.
The story of Edwards wanderings
from war Office to war office. battle
field to battlefield and hospital to hos
pital, on all the fronts of the western
allies, is a recital of indomitable faith
and persistence in the face of incred-
ulity, prejudice and suspicion. Alone,

turing where IL was difficult even for
military officials to go, bent always on
his mission of mercy, the tall, unas-
suming American, who Is not a doc
tor, but an engineer, Is n of the
unique figures of the war. Through
his single-handed efforts, Edwards has
alleviated the sufferings of thousands
of men. He has succeeded without
any cooperation from government
officials except the issuance of pass
ports, in having more than 5000 gall
Ions of his anaesthetic used on the
French and italian fronts; enough, he
says, for half a million treatments.
Now the solution and instruments are
furnished free through the American
Relief Society in Paris to all French
and italian war hospitals that apply

ATTACKS POLICY OF
BRITISH WAR STAFF

London, Jan. 21-The Daily Maic
publishes q two column contributed
article vehemently attacking the gov
eminent and the general staff in con-
nection with the finding Of the staff,
announced in the house of commons
Tuesday that the British higher army
command had not been surprised by
the German attack on the Cambria
front Nov. 80, when the British lost
part of the ground in the offensive a
few days earlier. The article says
that the government under the pres
sure of the general staff is hushing up
the incident while the Germans claim
to have captured or destroyed 1872
tanks and to-have taken 5000 men
and 100 guns. The writer adds:
"A particular army clique has had
supreme military control for two years,
and has repeatedly failed to fulfill its
own explanations and premises.
The Mail editorially endorses the
writer of this article, blaming the
Early of Derby, secretary for war and
General Sir William Robertson, chief
OF the general staff, whose removal ii

May RE-DISTRICT
FUEL TERRITORY
States West Of Mississippi Take Up
Plan to Eliminate Unnecessary
Hauling Of Coal.

Kansas City, Jan. 21.-Plans for re-
districting the territory in which they
have Jurisdiction so that coal can be
more easily distributed were to be
taken up at the meeting here today
of the fuel administrators of the plains
states-Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Ne
braska, Oklahoma and Arkansas. The
meeting was called at the suggestion
of H. A. Garfield, federal fuel admin
istrator.
Fuel administrators have found that
in some cases coal has been hauled
long distances or across several states
to districts which were supplying
points back along the line. The OBJ
ject of the meeting here today is to
prevent this condition by arranging
that each district provide for itself.
However, if all these states are made
into one district, there may be an ex-
ception to this proposed rule to per-
NIT Illinois to ship coal to st. Louis,
which obtains almost its entire supply
from that state, to Kansas City.
