Observe Christmas and
Lift Prevailing Gloom

Because of the signing of the
armistice and consequent closing
of the war, and because of the at
tendant raising of restrictions by
the food administrator, this should
have been one of the happiest
Christmases ever observed by the
American people as whole.
But, coming as it has, during
the last days and close of the war,
the terrible influenza epidemic
seems to have almost entirely off
set the jubilant feeling which we
would expect to possess the land
at this time l.
However, the government urges
that as far as at all possible
we observe the holidays, and to
the end that the rules of health
may not be unduly violated. they
ask that people do their shopping
as early and as quicAly as possible.
A bit Of Christmas shopping, re-
membering our friends as usual,
especially the sorrowing ones;
decorating our homes and making
it a real Christmas for the little
ones who cannot understand what
the sadness is all about, seems a
rational course. Influenza is on
the wane generally. and it seems
wise to make this greatest of all
holidays just as CHEEKY as possible:
The stores and windows are real
dressed up, and will help make
Christmas the joyful time it should
be. We must all display bit of
gaiety for the morale of the COM
munity.

Besides that we have the finest

Des Moines. Ia.
Dear Sir:
Yours of the 2lst received and
contents noted. In reply to your
your inquiry as to the attractions
and resources of our city, l shall
try to give them as see them.
We have about 1000 Inhabitants,
nearly all engaged directly or in
directly in mining, with fair per
centage of success, as this is one
of the best mining sections in th'.
Rocky mountain district, There
are excellent opportunities for
profitable investment in mines al.
ready located, and, as this district
is but one tenth prospected, there
remain splendid chances to locate
and operate your own mine.
We are in close proximity to
Denver, the most beautiful city
in the United States-only two
hours away through one of the
most picturesque and attractive
canons in the whole Of the Rocky
Mountain country. A most beau
tiful auto drive of 40 miles in less
time that it takes the train, to
Denver, is another great attraction.
and the beauty of this feature must
be seen to be appreciated, as l
haven't sufficient command OF
the English language to do it
justice.
Here we have the best water in
the world, cold as ice even in the
summer. Our climate is even all
the year around, with very few
sunless days. Seldom do we have
more than three zero nights, and,
in my thirty.eight years, I have
never seen a zero day.
The magnificent picturesque
scenery, the curative water of our
Hot Springs and perfect weather
bring many tourists. I could tell
you of many marvellous cures of
rheumatism but for lack of of space.
For concentrating and reduction
mills we are noted over the state,
and our mill men, many of whom
are pioneers, are inventors of new
methods in their line known far
and wide.
The beautiful mountains with
their cold sparkling streams swarm
ing with trout; the mountain sides
which form the feeding-ground Of
deer and elk IN herds of as many

the city-these are some Of the

ton. the number of ships in our
harbor increases menacihgly.
THE food supply is threatened
to an even greater degree than the
fuel supply. This condition is in
large measure due to the congestion
that at many points holds the load
ed cars in its grip.
ITO single out industries not en-
gagged to some extent in war man
ufactures is to select industries
which in the aggregate, will bring
relief only If suspended indefinitely.
To require all industries except a
comparatively small part to cease
for few days quickly accomplish
ed the desired results and perma-

It Stands puts all Industries on an
equal footing, favoring none and
avoiding unfair competition, but
this reason alone is not sufficient
This reason, plus the fact that the
order will put coal in the empty

will aid in breaking up congestion
of traffic and in furnishing an ade-
quate supply Of coal to the people
who need it and to the ships which
cannot sail without it-these are
sufficient reasons, and justify the
order.
only those industries producing
necessary war material that can be
promptly delivered are permitted
to- operate during the suspension
period. To permit industries with
a coal supply on hand to operate
would allow many of the least es-
sential to continue while some of
the most essential would be com
ef1ed to stop. Moreover, to allow
those fortunate enough to possess
a coal pile to continue would result
in adding to the traffic congestion,
and unless they also are suspended
at a later period, the needed saw
ing in consumption of coal would
not result.
ITO have delayed the application
of the order would only have added
to the congestion. 1t is not con-
demnation of industry to say that
each would have striven to the ut
most to increase supply of coal and

HOWARD BILL DESIGNED
TO PROTECT SOLDIERS
Georgia CongreSSman'S Anti
Liquor Bill Gets Support
of Committees
BY RALPH SMITH

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-As a means
of preventing, if it is possible to do SO,
the further sale of low grade of liquor
to our soldiers located at different
camps in the United States. a bill has
just been offered in the house by Con-
gresham Howard; of Georgia, which
will receive the support of the judiciary
committees of both houses.
Conditions are deplorable around some
Of the camps, Mr.. Howard said today.
He has heard of one camp where the
meanest, vilest kind of liquor is being
sold at from 81 to $12 a gallon.
The bill which 1 have just offered" "
Mr.. Howard said, will place a sentence
of year and a day for the first offense
of manufacturing or selling liquor with
out a license. For the second offense
there will be a pententiary sentence Of
five years without any alternative.
81 regret to say it, but the prohibition
laws are largely a farce. When fed
. eral judge has the power, which he now
possesses, to tell man who has been
convicted of "moonshining'' this worst
kind of liquor to go home, make his
crops, and return at some more con-
venient time and then serve, maybe
three months in a county Jail, he is put
ting a premium on violation of the
law and it certainly should not be this
way.
my bill, which will have the support
of the judiciary committees of both
houses of congress, will go long way
toward suppressing the liquor traffic.
When a man knows that if he is caught
either making or selling the stuff and
he must serve a long term in Jail and
cannot beg off from a leinent judge, he
will be deferred from his undertakings.
'Tn addition to this. conditions at

BRIDGEPORT MACHlNISTS
 AWAIT PRESIDENTS LETTER

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Sept. 1S.-Striking machinists from the Bridgeport mu- nitions plants held a mass meeting this afternoon and remained in ses- sion two hours awaiting an official copy of President Wilson's letter de- manding that the men return to their work It was announced that the presidents message had not been re- ceived and adjournment was taken to D. m.. Monday. Strike leaders said that if the letter had been received at that time the machinists would vote on it.
 Samuel Lavit business agent of the local machinists' union, said after the meeting that if the presidents letter was as drastic as indicated in the press, if was his opinion that the strikers would accept the alternative offered and go before their draft boards for induction into the army, rather than go back to the plants.
 Strike leaders refused. however. to ac- cept the newspaper version of the presidents letter, saving the news papers are unreliable"
 No attempt was reported to the strike committee today to carry out the notice of William H. Johnston president of tke International. Assocfa- tion of Machinists, that striking mem bers of the machinists' union would be suspended from the international body if they did not return to work.
