PRESIDENT NAMES
WEEK OF MAY 20
RED CROSS WEEK

WASHINGTON, May President
Wilson today issued a proclamation
designing the week beginning May 20
as Red Cross week" and calling upon
the American people to contribute
generously to the second 100000 900
war fund of the American Red Cross
for the alienation of suffering among
the American troops in France and
their department at home and among
the fighting forces and civilian popula-
tions of the Allied countries. The pro-
clamation follows:
Proclamation:
''Inasmuch as the war fund of 1917,
so generously contributed by the
American people to the American Red
Cross for the administration of relief
at home and aboard, has been practi-
cally exhausted by appropriations for
the welfare of the men in our military
\ and naval forces, and for those depen-
dent upon them, and for the yet more
urgent necessities of our Allies, mill
tary and civilians, we have long borne
the brunt of war.
"And, inasmuch as the American
Red Cross has been recognized by law
and International convention as the
public instrUmentality for war relief.
"And, inasmuch as the year of our
own participation in the war brought
unprecedented demands upon the
patriotism and liberality of our peo-
! pie and made evident the necessity of
concentrating the work of relief in one
main organization which can respond
effectively and universally to the needs
Of humanity under stress of war
"And, inasmuch as the duration of
the war and the closer and closer CO.
operation Of the American Red Cross
with our own army and navy, with the
Governments of our Allies, and with
foreign relief organization, have re-
suited in the discovery of new oppor-
tunities of helpfulness under condi-
tons which translate opportunity into
duty.
"And, inasmuch as the American
Red Cross war council and its com.
missioners in Europe have faithfully
and economically administered the
peoples trust.
Now. therefore, by virtue of my
authority as President of the United
states and president of the American
Red Cross, |, Woodrow Wilson do here
by proclaim the week beginning May
20, 1918, as RED Cross week." during
which the people of the United States
will be called upon again to give gen
erously to the continuation of the i'm
portant work of relieving distress. re-

DAWSON, Ga, June 17.-One of the
most heinous crimes that has ever
been perpetrated in this section, was
committed when Lille Belle aPtterson
negro woman who lives Just outside

report that it was one of the most
sickenuing sights they ever witnessed
one of the child's eyes being practic-
ally knocked out of it's head, one ear
almost torn off and great welts all
over its body and limbs. Neighbors
of the frenzied woman came to inter
fere in behalf of the child, but were
too late, the baby having lost cons
ciousness when help arrived.
The matter was reported to the au~
thorities and Deputy Sheriff F. M. Jen-
nings, Chief of Police C. H. Peddy and
Duke Marshall went to the scene and
arrested the woman and lodged her in
all. A coroners inquest was held over
the body of the child and verdict
was rendered that "the child came to

sent from that neighborhood for the
sheriff to come back to the scene OF
the crime and make search for an IL

be in the community. Mr.. Jennings
and his deputies again went to the
scene and investigated matters thor
oughly, and found complete outfit,
which was thought to belong to La

legged murderess 1t consisted of a
tub, tin can, pipe and can of mash,

They were both lodged in jail, one
being charged with murder and the

HOW 70 WIN THE WAR
BY HENRY FORD.

Our democracy is on trial. Can our
institutions bring out the latent ener-
gies of our people, and the moral
forces Of discipline and order? Can
we subordinate individual selfishneSs
and profiteering to the welfare OF the
group?
If so--and am sure that we can--
we shall win the war. We know that
armed robbery-land grabbing-be-
longs to the primitive ages; today civ
ilized men take their cases to court
In supporting President Wilson'S
policies we stand for reign of JUS
tice and right among nations. With
him we are fighting for the birth Of
rights Of the common people.
