as can be learned, there has been no

The board Of managers Of the Cham
Der OF Commerce at q meeting yester-
day afternoon directed President Megear
tOappOint permanent committee to In
vestlgate the project Of having a paid
fire department here. The action Of the
managers OF the Chamber OF Commerce
followed that OF the Rotary Club at It's
meeting at the Hotel dupont yesterday
when 1t adopted O resolution favoring
the installation OF a paid fire depart
ment.
Following the Robin fire, opinion
among business men, manufacturers
and property owners IN general has
been aroused more than ever to the
absolute necessity Of such a movement
which, smoudering for years, would
break out into spasmodic fame, figlr-
atively, at intervals. but because OF nc
responsible organization becoming
really active In the matter, little was
done which accomplished anything
Other than assist In stirring public SEN
timent.
At the last session Of the General
Assembly, the members OF the Rotary
Club attempted 10 Induce the Legsla-
ture to pass the necessary authorization
but were unsuccessful.
The Chamber Of Commerce. at It's

toward which the activities Of that body
should be directed during this year was

Fort Worth, Texas. March 1S.-Fort

most sweeping anti-vice crusade ever
undertaken in the southwest. Mill
tary police, United States officers, city
police and county authorities are CO.
operating in the vice cleanup.
In rooming house raids, at ho-
tells and alleged immoral houses rec
ords show that three hundred men
and women have been arrested within
the last few days. Eighty are con-
fined in Jail, fifty are out on bond
and many more are under surveillance
as material witnesses before the fed
eral grand jury.
Fort Worth is surrounded by mill
tary camps holding approximately 49,
900 soldiers The purpose of the cru
SADIE is to wipe out immoral condi-
tions of every description, particularly
bootlegging among soldiers and asso-
iation of fallen women with members
of military forces. At a military de-
tention camp nearly hundred women
are being treated.

stimulate Russia, but to obtain the
approval of the worlds democracies
of the American policy of no peace at
Russia'S expense
An interesting development is the
fact that many responsible British
lGborites, hitherto -classed as pa

citation of such a peace, considering
it not only dishonorable but calcu-

The greatest interest is displayed

SHOT R. |. EMPLOYE
Harrington Stirred Up Over Shooting
of John Guffcy.

HeringtOn, Kan. March 1S.-John
Guffey, a Rock Island employee here,
is in a dangerous condition in a Wieh-
tia hospital with a bullet wound in his
abdomen, the result of his refusal to
permit John Howard, a Rock Island
detective to search his suitcase as he
alighted from a Kansas City train.
Howard is under arrest.
Following the shooting of the young
man 800 Rock Island employees includ-
ing conductors, engineers, brakemen,
machinists and shop house men held a
mass meeting in the town theater.
Resolutions were adopted demanding
government investigation of condi-
tions in railroad circles and these
resolutions were forwarded to Director
General McAdoo. Ninety men have
been reported discharged as a result
of a recent cleanup of petty thievery
from the road. In many instances,
it is said, these dismissals were the
result of the refusal of employees to
give evidence, rather than any COM
plicity in the petty thieving.

from a train from Kansas City. Guffey
probably will die. The Rock Island

the Dutch shipping question the Tyjd
says:
I'VE shall have to acqniesce, but
such rough misuse of power will not
be forgotten by our people"
In an article vehemently denounc-
ing the allies. the Handelsblad says:
I'VE cannot think what our govern
ment will do. Will it publish a pro-
piracy and leave the matter as it is or
will it make the best of bad job and
make an exchange for what will be
taken away? If it is not exchanged,
will it request the ministers of these
piratical powers to pack their trunks
and depart? We should not lose
much thereby"
In the same article, however. the
Handelsblad admits that it is unfor-
tunately true that Holland is the only
northern neutral which has done moth
ing to combat German submarine
methods. 1t attributes the country S
present position to the spirit which
has dictated such an attitude.

independent nation and the possession
of its colonies are at stake. BY choos-
ing the right path the government has
in its power to maintain the liberty OF
