Henry Aliens Loyalty to Red
Cross Is Questioned.
WIRE FROM H.-P. DAWSON
Sets at Rest All RumOrs De-
rogatory to Allen.
Tells How and Why He Went to
the Y. NJ. C.. A. '

One of the most colossal campaign
lies of recent campaigns was lar,ated.
hog tied and branded today when Will
liam Allen White of Emporia gave to
the papers of the state a telegram
from Henry P. Dawson. head OF the
American Red Cross. The Dawson
telegram is an important document at
this time. 1t officially takes all the
steam out of a choice campaign story
to- the effect that Henry ]. Allen of
Wichita had been kicked out of the
Red Cross and that his change from
the organizations service to the Y. M.
C. "A. was of questionable nature and
reflected both on Allen, the state and
the war activities.
W. y. Morgan OF Hutchinson and
his campaign managers, circulated the
story which left the inference that be-
cause Allen was a candidate for the
Republican nomination for governor
in next Tuesdays primaries he had
been dismissed from service. In a
lnSon News gave yelled inferences that
Allen had been removed under an or
der from officers of the Red Cross.
Following the signed Morgan editor
ial, several Kansas newspapers printed
unsigned political advertisements ask
ing the voters to investigate reasons
for Aliens leaving the Red Cross to
enter Y. NJ. c. A. work
Following the attempt by Morgan
and other persons to injure Allen and
to reflect on the Red Cross thru the
use OF campaign falsehoods, White
wired to Henry p. Dawson for a state
ment of facts. Dawson as the head OF
the American Red Cross society speaks
officially for that organization and his
word is fiat and final.

MUST WORK HARDER
McAdoo Demands Better Service of
Shopmen in Return for Raise.

Washington, July 31.-Railway en-
ployes were TOLD by Director General
McAdoo in announcing details of the
wage increase for more than 100000
shopmen that the nation expected new
energy from the workers in return
for pay increases and improvements
in employment conditions and that
strikes and other labor disturbances
must be eliminated during the war.
Now that the decision has been
made the American people. whose
servants we are, expect every railroad
employe to devote himself with new
energy to his work and by faithful
and efficient service to justify the
large increases of pay and the i'm
provement in working hereby granted.
The American people have a right to
expect this, and they will be content
with nothing less
