THE RED CROSS !
 TO THE RESCUE

Fresh milk will be supplied to 20,- 900 sick and wounded soldiers in France by 1000 cows which the French government has agreed to loan to the American Red Cross. With these COWS the Red Cross will estab- fish a model experimental dairy plant at the largest American army hospi- tai in France, $5,o00 having been set aside for the Inauguration of the plant. As the dairy will be operated by convalescent soldiers the cost of maintenance will be comparatively small. It Is pointed out, however, that cost is not important, as fresh, pure milk is absolutely essential in the proper diet of the cases at the hos- pitals.
 Dairy experts in the Red Cross ser vice abroad are confident that this one dairy can be made to produce enough milk to supply 10000 injured fighting men daily. AS soon as the success of the experiment is assured, the Red Cross will establish at all the base hospitals in France similar dai- ries, which will be under the manage ment of one of the leading American dairy specialists.
 Lack of fresh milk, according to army doctors, seriously retards the recovery Of wounded and sick men Fresh milk at present cannot be se- cured in quantities at any price, the only milk obtainable being condensed

1.-THE IRISH BRIGADE"

The first army of Irishnen to win fame in continental wars was the im- mortal Irish Brigade of 10000 lighting men of fighting raee," who expatriated themselves under the terms of the treaty of Limerick, which was signed on this date, Oct. 8, in 1891, By this treaty resistance of the Irish to the government of William III, was terminated. Within the walls of Limerick were the flower of the Jacobite cause, and the gar- rison made a gallant resistance to Williams Dutch commander, Ginckel, who invested the town. After several terrible battles the Irish troops, un- der Gen. Sarsfeld, were forced to surrender, but they marched out of the town with all the honors of war. They were given the choice of enter ing the service of the English king or embarking for France, and the ma jority chose the latter alternative Ten thousand or more enrolled under the banner of Louis XIV. and became that renowned body so famous in the French service, "the Irish Brigade
 They fought side by side with the
 French troops, and always distin-
 guished themselves, just as many
 Irishmen have been doing in the pres. l ent war.

THEIR ATTACKS
 AN ASSET

Studied efforts are being made, un- der the direction of Chairman Will Hayes, of the Republican National Committee, to convince the country a Republican Congress is needed to give President Wilson's war adminis- tration efficient legislative support. Weekly statements are being distrib- uted to the press, designed to show how a Republican Congress would be more valuable in the crisis than a Democratic Congress. The logic is not clear. Neither is 1t apparent from the records just how and where a Republican Congress would recruit honest, active support for the Pres ident.
 It is not worth while to attempt an analysis of the argument. The whole thing, from premise to conclusion, is being refuted daily in Congress by the Republican members themselves. Simultaneously with the effort of Chairman Hayes to tell the country Republicans would help the President, some Republican legislators are do- ing their utmost to show how they can hinder and hamper him. Notable among these men who appear to have opened a veritable fall campaign against the President in his conduct of the war are the following: Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman, of | Illinois.
 Representative William B. Mason, ex-Senator from Illinois.
 Representative William A. Roden- berg, of Illinois.
 It would seem that this trio is en- deavoring to balance disservice in war legislation with service on the score of recruiting further aid for the Presidents program. For that is what they are doing. Every speech, no matter how bitterly they attack the President or his aids, serves to con- vince the nation more supremely that the Administration is following prop CT lines. The country knows their records.
 Sherman voted Against the Shipping Board bill, Espionage Act. Food Con- trol bill, War Finance Corporation and the Armor Plate measure. Ma son voted against the War Resolution, the Selective Service Act, Espionage Act, Railroad Control bill, and War Finance Corporation. Rodenberg voted against the War Resolution, the last great War Revenue bill, and for the Cooper amendment to nullify the effect of the Armed Neutrality mea- sure.
 I It Is common knowledge that these three men have been consistently, consistently, and even vociferously wrong on war legislation.
 ''I am against this war because we have had no just provocation under international law for going into the war;" said Mason in April 1917. He has been busy nj recent, months, and so has Rodenberg, explaining that the

A REPUBLICAN RECORD

Every six minutes Observes the Washington Post, "a merchant vessel arrives and another departs from American ports. C From North Allan tic seaports, there is departure every eleven minutes; and one from Europe every forty minutes. This rate of operation does not include vessels in the service of the army and navy The merchant fleet of 1,500 ships un- der the control of the shipping board are run as railroads on a time sched- ule."
 The above-a record to be proud of speaks volumes for the constructive ability and the vision of President Wilson and his party supporters. It was made possible by a Democratic Congress, not with the help but in de- spite of the opposition of Republican members of the Senate and House. During the session of 1914-15 Presi- dent Wilson urged Congress to pro- vide the means by which the Govern ment could go into the shipbuilding business. He foresaw then the ne- cessity for ships. The House passed the bill, but the Senate Republicans killed it by filibuster in the closing days of the 1915 session. The next session the bill was reintroduced and ultimately was forced to passage by Democrats over the vigorous protest of Republicans. The vote in the House was 209 to 161. Of the 161 negative votes, 160 were cast by Re- publicans. It passed the Senate 3S to 21. or the q votes in opposition, 20 were cast by Republicans. The leaders of the minority party in both the House and Senate were among those who fought the ship-buiIding bill. And now they seek to convince the country that they should be given control of the next Congress to "help the President win the war" Judging by past performance on this most inn portant of all war-winning measures, the "help" Republican controlled Congress would give the President would be destructive rather than con- structiYef f

Five and half million allotment and allowance checks have already been mailed by the Bureau. A mill Non checks 8 month are now going forward and the number will increase. A total of 3,4O1, 900 applications for allotments and allowances have been recevied. This means the installation of more than three million separate files, for each case has it's individual file and record.
 In allotments and allowances a to- tai of more than $160, ,O00, 900 has already been paid. Some of the | checks have gone to dependents in Greece, China, Japan, Italy and other foreign countries. The field of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance is in lternational. Its correspondence con- tains letters of appreciation from wives and mothers located in all parts of the earth.
 ] More than 100000 insurance cer- tificates have been mailed to date. With the greatest mailing list ever devised the incoming and outgoing mails at this Bureau exceed those of any government department.
 i of the law, and before there was . clerk to attend to the correspondence, twenty-four sacks of mail containing applications and letters concerning in surance |, and allowances and allot ments reached the Treasury Depart ment. Through no fault of its own the Bureau was behind in its corres- pondence from the very day of organ ization. Ten thousand clerks, mo- bilized at the rate of thousand a month, are still endeavoring to catch up.
 The Correspondence Problem.
 The correspondence problem of the Bureau became so serious that twen- ty-five college professors volunteered
 to forego their vacations, come to Washington and help the Bureau teach its employees how to answer let ters. The Bureau conducts a cor respondence school where daily les sons in research, composition and dic- tation are given.
 Practically all of the mail of the
 Bureau concerns money. There must
 be complete check of facts and fig
 ures all along the line. Legal ques-
 tions are involved. The War Risk
 Insurance act itself Is a comprehen-
 sive measure and there can be nc
 mistakes in it's interpretation by em- ployes who are handling insurance policies. allotments and allowances. Of the thousands of letters receiv. , ed and answered daily by the Bureau considerable percentage is due to z , misunderstanding of the law. The
 law requires a soldier or sailor witt
 dependent wife or children to set aside
 part of his salary for their supper
 back home. To this allotment tht ? Government adds an appropriation O . it's own. depending upon the size O l the family.
 . The soldier or sailor may allot { . part of his pay to a dependent paren . or other relative, but this Is not oblig g atory. Thousands of letters are re . ceived rom mothers who want t D know why the Government has no < sent her allotment, whereas the sot !. dier has made no allotment. If cir y cumstances warrant the Governmen f will supplement the allotment to 6 dependent relative other than wife o l child, but in all cases where allot Q ment Is not compulsory the soldie
 or sailor must take the initiative.
