the WONAN'S COUNCIL
OF NATIONAL DEFENSE

The Woman's committee of the
Council of National Defense WAS ap-
pointed April 81, 1917 by the Council
of National Defense, and is directly
responsible to it. This committee is
the only body of women organized for
war work which has the direct connec-
tiOn with the government. 1t Was Of
ficially created to coordinate, central
iZe and standardize the activities and
resources of the women of the country,
that their power may be Immediately
utilized in time of war; to ASCERTAIN
and report tie patriotic work now be-
ing done BY women and women's or
CARNATIONS; to eliminate duplication
of effort and to discourage valueless
work.
1t is the province Of this committee
to help women by providing them with
authentic information regarding what
the government wants them to do and
what other women are doing, in order
that confusion and wasted energy may
be avoided.
The WOman's committee aims to
bring together, in friendly cooperation,
all unorganized, as well as organized
women, in order that they may render
constructive patriotic service and hat
greater efficiency may be secured in
defense work of the nation.
This is not war for ameteurs. In
every branch skilled service is requir-
ed and, as the soldiers are being train
ed in environments, so the government
requires women to be trained in their
homes and along other lines of activ-
tiles. in order that, in cases of emer-
gency. they may render efficient ser
vice.
In every state division of the
Woman's Committee of the Council of
National Defense has been organized
Each state division in turn, organizes
units in counties, cities and towns.
The United States is putting this
question to the women of Colorado:
Are You Patriotic?" And the gov
eminent is providing simple way for
them to answer. They are at a chos

AMERICA IS FIGHTING FOR
FREEDOM PRESIDENT REPLIES

Washington, D. C.-President Will
son addressed congress Mondav after
noon replying officially to Premier
Czcrnin of Austria Hungary and
Chancellor Won Hertling of Germany,
who recently announced the war aims
of the Central Powers.
President Wilson laid down basis
Of future peace as follows:
First: Each part of the final set
Element must be upon basis of the
essentialjustice of that particular case
and such adjustments as are most
likely to bring peace that will be per-
manent.
Second: People and provinces must
not be bartered about from sovereign
ty to sovereignty as though they wer.
ehattels, but that every territorial set
Element involved in the war must BE-
made in the interest and for the ben
eft of the populations concerned, and
not as part of compromise of the
claims among rival states.
Third: All well defined national as
pirations shall be accorded the utmost
satisfaction that can be accorded with
ont introducing new or perpetuating
old elements of discord and antagc-
nism that are likely in time to break
the peace of Europe and consequent
ly the world.
A general peace upon such foun-
dation can be discussed the president
said, but eve cannot turn back 70 a
basis such as Count Hertling propos-
es. America has yet to be shown
that the settlements she has suggest
ed are not the best However, she
cannot see her way to peace until
the causes Of the war are removed

principles involved and the necessity
of cardidly applying them in order to

MRS. EFFIE CAIRNS RECEIVES
AWARD

At ia meeting of the Industrial Com
mission on November l8, Mrs. Effie
Cairns was awarded compensation for
the death of her husband in the sum
of $72.40 per month.
This case has been pending for
some time and has received careful
consideration at the hands of the Com
mission. The questions involved were
submitted to several of the leading
specialists of the country. The appar
ent delay in the ruling was due to the
time required to get all the opinions
of these brain specialists together and
neither time nor expense has been
spared in the effort to arrive at a just
determination.
At the time OF Mr.. Cairns injury
he was in the employment of Lyon
County and all the employees are
covered by the industrial insurance.
During the months the commission
was working on the case the county
has made Mrs Cairns and her child
rem an allowance. This is the high
est award ever made by the Commits
sion in the monthly compensation
class and embodies a substantial JUS

GERMANY WILL OPPOSE
A LEAGUE OF NATIONS
FORMER SECRETARY OF FOR
EIGN AFFAIRS OF ENGLAND
ISSUES A PAMPHLET.

London, June 19.-Viscount Grey.
OF Fallodon, who was secretary OF
foreign affairs in the cabinet of Her
bert ii. Asquith at the beginning OF
the war has written "a pamphlet, the
self-eXplanatory title of which is
The League OF Nations"
Modern civilization is at stake.
and whether it win perish and be
submerged, or whether it will live
and progress depends upon whether
the nations engaged in this war and
even those that are onlookers, learn
the lesson that experience of the war
may teach them" says Viscount Grey
Viscount Grey lays down two prin-
cipal conditions which he says must
be fulfilled if the league Of nations
is to be effective The first is:
THE idea must be adopted with
earnestness and conviction by the ex-
ecutive heads Of states. 1t must be-
Ncome an essential part OF their prac-
teal policy, one of their chief rea-
sons OF being, or continuing TO be
responsible for the policy of their
states. They must lead, not follow;
they must compel If necessary and
not be compelled"
This condition, Viscount Grey saws.
is actually fulfilled as regards the
executive head of the United States
and is, or will be found present as
regards the entente governments
while Austria has publicly shown
disposition to accept the proposal
As long, however, as military rule in
Germany continues, Germany will
oppose a league of nations, he says.
Germany has to be convinced" he
continues, that force does not pay
that the aims and policy of her mill
tary rulers inflict intolerable and
also unnecessary suffering upon her
and when the world is free from the
menace of these military rulers Ger
many viii realize that the conditions
of true security for one nation is
absence of security on the part of all
nations
It'll Germany feels this to be true.
there can be no league OF nations in
the sonse intended by President VIII
