Remove Misunder-
standing.

The Atlantic Division OF the Red
Cross took occasion yesterday to set at
rest erroneous reports that women hav-
ing near relatives serving in the army
or navy abroad may not themselves go
to France as military nurses. The only
prohibition against women serving in
France, the Red Cross announcement
explained, concerns those who. having
relatives in the army or navy, are them
! selves engaged in special service and
not under direct military control.
THE nursing bureau has learned" the
statement said. that many nurses who
are anxious 10 serve with the Army
Nurse Corps have not made application
for enrolment through the department
OF nursing of the Red Cross because OF
the prevailing idea that they are barred
from service because they have brothers
or other near relatives serving in
France. The Red Cross wishes to make
clear that all of these nurses are eligible
for enrolment and that they are eligible
to serve abroad in the Army Nurse
Corps"
The Bronx County Chapter OF the Red
Cross issued an appeal yesterday to
Bronx women TO enroll with the chapter
and take a freee course in home care
for the sick An appeal also was issued
for women between the ages OF 25 and

BrOckton Plant Refuse to
Hear Their Chief.


WASHINGTON. July 22.-Stirred by the
report that nearly 10000 skilled work
men, most Of them in New Jersey and
New England. are on strike. Senator
Thomas (Colo.) in the Senate to-day de-
manded the immediate reconvention Of
Congress to enact ironciad anti-strike
legislation.
Senator Thomas declared that the
peace time efforts OF workmen to better
their working conditions and obtain more
money usually had his sympathy but
that striking at this time was nothing
more nor less than helping the enemy.
while our troops and our allies
troops are fighting day and night" said
Senator Thomas, at is certainly un-
fortunate that we should have workmen
striking in this country. It shows an
Indifference to duty and to the require
ments of the times. The failure Of the
strikers to do their duty Is giving aid
and comfort to the enemy. 1t should be
treated as such
These strikers injure our cause In
manner more actual and more terrible
than have the disloyalists. The time
has come when Congress should convene
and act to meet this situation. Maxi
mum wages should be fixed by law and
strikes should be dealt with as other
forms OF disioyalty are dealt with"
All strikers at this time are proflteers
! OF the worst Sort said Mr.. Thomas. He
| asserted that he stood ready to condemn
the small profiteer as quickly as the large
| one.
