Shark Monroe," Hart's
 Latest, at the Colonial

Shark Monroe William Hart's latest production, which pleased movie fans at the Strand theatre for the past four days, is being shown at the Colonial the atre today.
 This picture is pronounced one of the best in which MT. Hart has been seen and the change from the part of a frontiersman to that of a skipper of a sealing schooner on the Alaskan coast is most enjoyable. How he falls in love with girl and follows her as her pro tector is depicited in many highly inter- eSting scenes.

EMPLOYMENT OF DRAFTEEs

In response to queries from several of the Red Cross divisions regarding the policy of the national organization with respect to the employment of men with in the draft age the acting general
 manager has issued the, statement that
 follows:
 "Our policy i'll respect to enrolling such
 men in foreign service is as follows:
 They are not accepted unless they have
 been placed in Class 5, Section c, be-
 cause of phyiscal disabilities and fur
 thermore, unless the disability is Vis-
 ual This removes all question as to
 whether the representatives of the Red
 Cross in foreign service should be ill
 the army, as at a glance it can be seen
 that they would not be qualified for such service. The same policy applies lin respect to men enrolled for service in camps and cantonments in this coun-
 try.
 Our policy in respect to enrolling such
 men at division headquarters is as fol-
 lows: The Red Cross has never asked
 for the exemption of anyone and does not expect to do so. Therefore, any man so enrolled al division headquar- ters is nevertheless in all respects sub, ject to the draft. In respect however to those men who have been placed n
 Class 4, because of dependency, or placed in Class 5 c, because of physical disa- bility as above set forth, and are not therefore available for military service, but who must under the recent ruling of the provost marshal general be en- gagged in some useful work our posi- ton is, that such men so employed Tn important positions with the Red Cross are within the provost marshals rul- ing and should be retained Tn Red cross service.
 "In the event of this question arising each individual case should be examined and passed upon by responsible Rea Cross official in the division office. |SANDUSKY PROVES PATRIOTIC | Sandusky is 100 per cent patriotic A branch of the Red Cross formed there some time ago is doing fine work.

In order that these two buying
agencies should not get in each others
way. 1t has been necessary to place
them under joint direction. In the final
outcome. therefore. we ind ourselves in
the presence OF q gigantic monopoly
Of buying Just as. potent for good or
evil as any monopoly in selling. and
influencing prices. Therefore, not
through any theory, but through an
actual physical fact, the price made
by this gigantic buyer dominates the
market
This is price-fixing in a light never
contemplated in economic history or
theory, and 1t is time that economic
procrustean formulas of supply and
demand and take cognizance of it. In

the government must necessarily regu-
late the price. and all theories to the
