MOVE RAIL OFFICES

If any bureaus Of the Government
are to be moved out of the city OF
Washington Congressman Frederick
H. Gillett of Massachusetts,, Republi-
can leader of the House, thinks a
start should be made with the Rail-
road Administration. It is true that
Mr.. McAdoo is Secretary of the Treas
ury and also Director General of the
Railroads, and would probably have
to remain in Washington. But he IS
not the active head of the railroad
system. "He is the fgurhead and
does the spectacular work., as MI.
Gillette puts it. The real labor of the
railroad administration is performed
by a horde of clerks who could accom-
plish their work much more efficiently
if they were located in some large city
that is a railroad center. Washington
is far from that, and there is no pos
sible reason why the congestion at the
National Capital should be aggravated
by needlessly imposing upon the city
of additional clerks.

TRUST PROBLEMS

Washington, Oct. 14.-(Special cor
respondence.)-If the Joint Congress
sional Committee on Reconstruction,
advocated in the resolution of Sena-
tor Weeks of Massachusetts, is Great
ed one Of it's most important duties
will be an inquiry into the question of
trusts and combinations after the war.
There is little doubt that the indus
trial upheaval that the country has
experienced in the last two years is
going to cause a modification in the
policy Of the Government toward trade
combinations.
The war efficiency Of Germany has
been due largely to thet encourage
ment offered by the Kaiser's govern
ment to the formation of hugh indus
trial concentrations that in this coun-
try, under our former policy, would
have been considered a menace and
promptly restricted by legislation.
Great Britain has never been so a,
tagonistic to trusts as the United
States, neither has she gone to the
other extreme as has Germany. But,
according to Senator Weeks, the re-
ports of various British commissions
indicate that England proposes to
out-German Germany" in that re-
spect in the future.
In our own country the tendency is
all in the direction of trade combina-
tions. Perhaps the most conspicuous
example is the unit system of opera
ton of the railroads. The express
companies are also working under one
directing authority, and our shipbuild-
ing activities are all controlled from a
central Office at Washington. The
economic advantage of large combi-
nations has been recognized by Con-
gress in permitting American indus
tries to combine in foreign-trade op-
erations. The extension of that policy
to the home market will be carefully
looked into by the Reconstruction
' Committee.

Notes: (a) Isolation-So far as
possible, every patient should have a

4 Plea for the Red Cross

that way and do all their travelling
when it is dark, for then the cap
tive enemy balloons cannot signal
to the guns where to shell. And at
night the roads are choc-a-bloc
with wagons, ambulances, ammu-
milton trains, supply trucks, etc.
The roads are full of shell holes,
and often impossible with debris,
the going is very bad in No Mans
Land.
And friend, if you cannot sew or
knit or make surgical dressings,
and if you don't care to go to meet
ings and are afraid to get wet and
don't want to think about the war
and hate pain and misery, now is
your time to do something easy.
You can give! This is your chance.
Give all you can-not fifty cents
or a dollar, or something you will
never miss, but give something
that you will miss. Go without
something you intended to have.
Give until it hurts. 1t will give a
warmer contenteu feeling round
your heart; try it. Later when
troubles thicken and the dark days
come that must come before the
war is over, it will sustain you
You will have got the habit of
helping, and if the worst should
ever come that the supplies are
short, that precious lives are sacri-
feed because there were not
! enough doctors and nurses and
anaesthetics and dressings, you
will know that it is not your fault

1t is rather startling to know
that last year there were eight
hundred and fifty million jars of
food canned in the American kit
chens. We dare not think what the
food shortage would have been in
this country last winter without
this patriotic response to the food
question. With millions starving
abroad, and the food supply in a
critical state, we should can our
winter supply at home, in this sea-
son when food is plentiful, to re-
lease the commercially canned pro-
ducts for shipment abroad.
On Thursday afternoon Miss
Goodpasture, Field Agent in Boys
and Girls Club Work of the U. S.
Department Of Agriculture, gave
a canning demonstration to the
Newark school children with a
view to organizing a Canning Club
in this city. The boys and girls
received the work with enthusiasm
and the prospects are for strong
young army of food conservers.
The Newark school children are
organized in Garden Club under
the direction of Mr.. T. 7. Martin

of the great need for medicines
