ada. The British military service acts
which govern the operation of the
treaty would make all Americans in
Great Britain or Canada between Is
and 40 liable to draft into the British
army. But in the notes exchanged by
Lord Reading and Secretary Lansing
it is agreed that the United States
may claim exemption for its citizens
under 21 and over 81.
The Main Feature
The text of article, the principal
article in the treaty, reads:

British subjects in the United States

this convention they enlist, or enroll

government and by voluntary contri-
buttons There are two appeals, for the
Chanay sanitorium where the worst
cases will be especially cared for, and
for children's s colony in Amersfort,
Holland. Omer Buyse, director general
of board of education, is the head. The
aim of this colony is to take out as
many children as possible from Bel
gium, underfed and suffering from
three years Of semi-starvation, and give
them real home, nourishing food and
education. Mrs. Kellogg said, because
of the increased cost of food it viii
take 500 per month to care for each
child. She paid high tribute to the
Hollanders, who have done everything
in their power to relieve the sufferings
of their unfortunate neighbors. They
are themselves living in mortal terror
not knowing when their turn will
come from these ruthless, worse than
savages.M Mrs. Kellogg painted a vivid
picture Of the long line Of waiting
children whose one meal day, lit
tic soup and q piece of bread, came
from the gift Of sympathizers The
Belgians like to- know where the gifts
come from, and were especially touch
ed by contribution from the Philip
pines, and Mrs. Kellogg suggested that
whatever contributions are made from
Salem should be accredited to this
city. Undoubtedly the city Of Salem is
already better known to Belgians than
any place on tho Pacific coast, thru
the untiring work Of the lamented Eu-
gene Bosse, the Belgian flax expert,
whose continuous effort was to place
before the young men Of Belgium that
another country existed in the vicini-
ty of Salem, only waiting for develop
ment, and every year of the IL that
he was with us, beautiful samples Of
fiber were sent to be inspected, and
favorably compared with their own fa-
nous product from the river Lys. Mr..
Bosse would say, hundreds Of Belgians
will come to Salem when once our flax
affair is started. Let us now show them
that Salem is q city Of tender feeling
for their suffering. Mrs. Kellogg said
that not a piece Of linen, not a pound
Of fiber but what has been seized by
these robbers, and taken to Germany.
People who have been noted for their
industry are for lack Of raw material,
and carrying off of all machinery
doomed to idleness, or, if they find

make the claim that the necessities of
war demand "a return to the ten OF
twelve hour working day. If they are
not strenuously opposed they may in
some instances succeed in inaugurating
it.
"0rganized labor must stand firmly
and unalterably for continuance Of q
shorter work day. 1t will not tolerate
any attempt to increase the basic hours
Of labor. Our members are sacrificing
their lives in order that a free people
may live and democratic principles may
be continued and extended.
aIf those who return find that while
they have been fighting the battles in
the war their employers have taken
from them advantages which they had
gained before the war, they are justi.
fled in deciding that their interests
were not properly safeguarded and that
the boasted freedom of the laborers il
but a myth.
"We must be eternally on guard to
see that while one portion of our mem
bership is fighting for freedom Of the
people of the world, another portion
shall not be enslaved."
The other resolutions adopted deal
ing with the eight hour day, provide:
That the federation and affiliated
unions do all in their power to estab
lish the basic eight hour day without
hampering war production.
That the federation support the
Journeymen Tailors' Union in its effort
to establish the eight hour day and
weekly systems.
That the federation support the
filiated postal employers in their ef
forts to insure a more strict observance
Of the letter and spirit of the postal
eight hour law by securing legislation
establishing rate of time and hall
for all work in excess Of eight hours
That the federation request congress
to establish standard day Of railway
duty applicable for railway mail clerks

work day averaging eight hours and
for 306 work days in the year.
That the convention endorses efforts
