THE u. S. AND WAR REFUGEES

From the Chicago Tribune of August 23:-
Washington, D. c., Aug. % IA joint reso-
luton authorizing the admission into the United
States of refugees driven from their own coun-
tries because of war conditions was transmitted
to the Senate and House today by President
Wilson
S'The resolution was prepared by the labor
department upon the recommendation of the
state department specifically to permit 1900
Serbian refugees, including 500 children, who
sought refuge in Russia, to come to this coun-
try. A communication from President Wilson
urged the passage of the resolution, which in
the Senate was referred to the foreign relations
committee.
president Wilson transmitted copy Of
letter from Acting Secretary Of State Polk say
ing:
The state department is informed that both
England and France have received large num-
bers of Serbian refugees, and it is the depart
ment s opinion that the admission of these Ser
ins into the United States would not only be
ahumane act, but would have good moral
effect in the Balkans.'''

u. S. DRY JULY l., 1919

Washington, August 26 Bone dry pro-

Congress through compromise agreements. The
amendment would be effective for the rest of
the war; at least.
Both ''wets'' and ''drys'' stated that this
compromise agreement was in sight, and both
factions declared that the President was not
opposed to the compromise
The conclusion of this agreement makes pos
sible the passage Of the amendment by the
Senate (the House already having passed it,
late this week or early next week.
The amendment originally specified January
l, but the President had expressed preference
for the July date.

Zion Institutions and Industries are running
at full speed, and yet are unable to cope with
the business that might be handled. There
would be no difficulty at all in securing more
orders and contracts if we had greater facilities
at our disposal.
We need men, women and investments.
Other institutions and spheres of labor could
quickly be opened up and large increase in our
production could easily be made.
At the present time we are needing: team
sters, laborers, man for Creamery, press feeders,
men and girls for the Baking Industry, girls or
women as machine operators in the Handker-
chief Factory and Tailoring Department, sew
eral girls and boy in the Candy Factory,
woman to help with the cooking in the lunch

Collections Good.

According to the City Treas
urer Miss Jerusha Johnson tax
collections in the city of Wash
burn for 1918 are stacking up
better than they did during
1917. Up to this morning a total
of $7530,72 had been collected
as against 1415.78 during the
same period last year. The
largest amount paid so far by
a single taxpayer was paid by
the Northwestern Fuel com
pany, their tax amounting to
$4287.47.
Taxpayers have until the last
of the present month in which
to pay their taxes without an
additional penalty. In the past
TWO years the city council has
seen fit to extend the time for
paying taxes without the penalty
to March 1st and many of the
taxpayers are in hope that the
council will take the same action
at their meeting to be held this
month.
