SENT OVERSEAS
Red Cross Chapter Does Part in
Helping to Furnish Islanders
With Christmas Gifts.

Over eight hundred fifty Christ
mas boxes were dispatched through
the Rock Island chapter, American
Red Cross, to men overseas. OF this
number almost seven hundred were
sent from the city alone, and the
remainder were forwarded by resi-
dents of the rural districts.
Saturday, the last day for mail
ingrwas a busy one at the chapter
postoflice: $50 boxes were inspect
ed, packed and wrapped, the office
remaining open until after 8 o'clock
in the evening in order that no one
should be disappointed.
Since Nov. 20 approximately four
hundred fifty coupons were issued
at local Red Cross headquarters
upon signing of the proper applica-
ton by the sender. There were
days when five women and two
men could scarcely handle all the
packages brought in by eager rel
atiYes of those overseas.
In addition TO the packages sent
by relatives to men in service

LABOR REPORTS
Claims Only 1.426 Have Left Rock
Island Arsenal Shops Since
Nov. Denies RumOrs.

Colonel /. 7. Hillmau, command
ant at Rock island arsenal, takes
exception TO a number OF state
meIts made at the recent mass
meeting Of arsenal employees at the
Burtis opera house in Davenport,
also 70 the contents Of the rcsOlu-
non sent by the employees to Presi-
dent Wilson. ms regard thereto,
Colonel HiIlman has issued the fol-
lowing statement to the newspa-
pers Of the tri-cities.
In view of recent statements
published in local papers with ref
eTence to discharge of employees at
the arsenal, which was very enron
eous, il is requested that you give
equal publicity to the following.
since the signing Of the armi-
stice 1926 employees have left the
arsenal. Of this number all except
90 left voluntarily or for discipliu-
ary reasons The 80 were offered
other positions at the arsenal but
declined Tie same and were laid off
for lack of work.
1T must be appreciated that the
reduction Of government establish
ments to a peace basis requires
very great reduction in our manu-
featuring program. Every effort,
however. is being used to avoid re
leasing employees until they have
an opportunity to secure positions
for themselves in commercial work.
All persons having positions va

The new refrIgerators are beautifully

If YOU have a conveniently located

Such a refrigerator Is made OF cement, is

making such chest is not greater than
the cost of good-sized modern refriger-

and three feet deep. The walls are six
inches thick on all sides. The lid Is fasten-
ed with strap steel hinges. set while the

made of boards dressed with boiled I'm

with builders paper and sheet aluminium
Such lid cannot swell from dampness,
nor will it be affected BY hot, dry weather
The corners of this chest are made round

sewer pipe going through the basement.

kept clean.
The cost of making such q cement re-
frigerator is merely the cost OF the cement
and other materials, and a man and
bows hire for one day. The comfort one
has in being able to put the food away
without crowding Is great, for the major
ty of ice chests are attractive but not
very roomy.
Ice protected by cloth folded about it,
lasts much longer than if left in the box
unwrapped. Paper ice blankets are made
TO wrap about ice and save their cost
many times in the season.
Foods that are odorous, like onions
and fish and cheese, should always be
slipped into a paper bag and have the
opening securely fastened. Then put them
on the bottom of the refrigerator and the
smell will not be apparent

Weekly Cotton Goods

New Orleans, September 14-wide de- Iclines occurred in cotton last week, the chief depressing influence being tho announcement by President Wilson that "a committee would be apointed to in- vestigate the cotton situation and that one of the duties of the committee might be to recommend the fixing of ia fair price for a staple. On the closing session prices fell 227 to 235 points in the first eight minutes of business. the sharpest and widest decline on record. From the highest to the lowest of the week there was fall of 2s7 to BOT points. Last prices showed net losses of 120 to 147 points. compared with the close of the previous week.
 A more favorable opinion was enter tained of weather conditions over the belt and the large ginning returns. 1,039.620 bales to the 1st of September, increased bearish sentiment The mar ket was steadied by the favorable war news and by the hurricane inf tropical waters which threatened to enter the Gulf of Mexico
 At the end of the week price fixing was the dominating influence and this week promises to open with the same influence at work. Among local cotton people it is generally the opinion that the immediate situation hangs almost entirely on Washington and that price fixing will be the vital issue of the im- mediate future. Because of the import ance of this matter daily swings are likely to be influenced by developments connected with the investigation which has been planned by the administra- tiOp

THE WORLDS MARKET
WEEKLY METAL

New York, September l5.-The confer enee to determine the price of iron ana steel during the ensuing quarter VII! be held in Washington next wednes- day While the government is openly opposed to a change from the present schedules, it is thought probable that some arrangement will be made satis- factory to the merchant furnaces. which insist they cannot continue at the cur rent price
 A few minor differential changes in steer products recommended by the steel committee will be made operative from August 2S. fulfilled tonnage on the books ot the United States Steel corporation August Sl amounted to S,T59042 tons or l24,l59 tons below July sl.
 Iron continues scarce. New business IS accepted for urgent war purposes only and furnaces are considerably be- hind on contracts. but output is slowly increasing Outturn reported by the United States Steel corporation last week was 9i per cent of capacity. September is expected to equal July production.
 Government consumption of copper is heavy and the supply of refined metal is barely equal to it, but no shortage is expected.
 Consumers of lead for war purposes are accommodating heavy stocks to provide against possible deficiencies during the winter months. The present market could, therefore absorb much more than is now obtainable. The price is still quoted at S.05c, New York and 7%c East St. Louis. LA government pur- chase of 2o0o tons of spelter has stiffen the zinc market
 An international pool for the dstribu- tion of tin has been completed in Lon don. It proves that America will re- ceive two-thirds of the worlds produc- tion at regulated prices. Trade is at standstll awaiting further information

Weekly Financial

New York, Sept. 15.--With the rest of the country on accepted war basis, Wall Street is gradually but surely settling
 down to rock bottom conditions, prepar- ing for an indefinite period of financial rationing
 The inflexible course pursued by the
 Federal Reserve Board, with the hearty
 cooperation of the Clearing House As
 sociation and the stock exchange. is be- lieved to foreshadow a steady diminution to nominal proportions of business in the
 securities market.
 The action of the market this week conveyed the plain inference that many
 pools which contributed to the activity and higher quotations of the previous
 month had received definite intimations, if not direct warnings to curtaiI their operations
 At the lower levels there was a moder. ate investment demand, induced by att tractive dividend returns, this applying especially to high grade rails and stand ard industrials. Buying of the trans
 portations was fortified by forecasts of
 large earnings for August as indicated by gross returns already to hand. Further stimulating war news and the crop report, which exceeded expectations,
 save. as to corn, doubtless would have
 inspired degree of optimism but for the more rigid loan restrictions. 9 prelude to the Fourth Liberty Loan was furnished by the sharp if temporary advance in existing Liberty fs and 4A's due to Secretary McAdoo's recommenda- tions for an extension of exemptions, not only on issues but the forthcoming f1ota- tions as we'll.
 Plans already under way indicate that unusual efforts will be made to distribute the new loan more generally among small investors.
