WORK OF THE RED CROSS NOT
COMPLETED

Since the signing Ut the armistice
many people seem to be OF the i'm
preston that there is nothing for the
Red Cross workers to do at home.
This is an erroneous idea, for while
active fighting has ceased there are
millions of destitute and suffering
peoples in the war-stricken countries
that must have assistance. Mrs. Philip
secretary of the Delaware County
Chapter of the Red Cross received a
communication from headquarters
that ought to set our people right on
this subject. Following is the let
ter:
Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 10Th, 1919.
This is to acknowledge your letter
of February 18th relative to future
Chapter production.
I'VE regret that we are unable at
the present writing to outline in a
definite way the extent Of future pro-
duction. However although the work
will be limited, in contrast to what
it has been in the past, there will
be a certain amount of work to be
done and we will need the continued
support of our Chapters in order to
handle It.
1--WE will issue further quotas for
knitted articles within the next few
days for Refugees, and it is highly
probable that additional quotas for
Refugee garments will be given to
Chapters in the near future.
although we realize the difficult
ties which you are having on account
of the Flu" and the subsequent
scarcity of workers, we are hoping
that the Delaware County Chapter
will be able to undertake these quoa-
tas which will be assigned to it.
Yours very truly,
WALTER DAVIDSON
Associate Director, Department OF
, Development"
A special appeal is also made for
| volunteers. The secretary feel that
the ladies' of Manchester would not

| Chapter go on record as having failed
to meet its obligation. 1t is suggest
ed that at least fifty ladies pledge
| themselves to give one afternoon a
week, or one in two weeks, SO noti-

then be placed on file and when the
work is ready, call could be made

URGE BETTER PACKING AND
MARKING METHODS


gurated by the American Railway Elk
press Company to bring about be-
ter methods of packing and marking
express shipments, began recently with
the first of a series of meetings Of
express employees to be held regu-
arly during the month of the drive.
At convenient periods throughout the
day, agent l.. A. Freswick called to-
gether groups of his co-workers and
urged them to put their full force be-
hind the comprehensive campaign
now under way and to work with ship
pers in accomplishing decisive results
in lettering the service.
Vehicle men, depot. platform and
office employees were addressed by
the agent, who made stirring appeals
for their active cooperation and keen
interest in the drive. The agent told
the express workers that they, indi-
vidually and collectively, could give
valuable aid in the campaign by bring
ing their work up to the highest
standards. There is room for i'm
provement everywhere. he stated.
Owing to conditions brought about by
the war, he admitted, the express SER
vice had not been as good as the COM
pany had expected to make it. But
with these obstacles removed and
every expressman doing his part, the
way has been cleared for very mark
ed change for the better.
In urging the men to seek the CO.
operation of shippers in the drive, the
agent brought to the attention OF the
drivers the necessity Of giving them
all the aid possible in bringing their
packing and marking methods up to
the required standard. 1t was ack-
nowledged that the manner OF pack
ing and marking varies with the COM
modities, but the question of whether
a shipment is in proper condition for
handling to destination safely must
be left to the good judgment Of the
driver, who has been thoroughly in
structed on the rules and3 regula-
lions.
After the -four minute" speeches,
agent l.. A. Freswick announced the
of better service cam
paign committee, made up Of the fol-
towing: E. l.. Simpson and r., p.
representing each branch
81 the, local organization. He re-
uuested the men selected to keep watch
on the conditions Of business as it
passed through the terminals and to
call personally on shippers whose
needed attention.
: one Of the serious problems that
the express company has to race is
that Of mo mark" express matteFi
The agent stated. Here are shigi-
merts which, because of their inade-
uuate packing or marking, lose all
trace of Identification, either OF the
shipper or the consignee, and must
be sent to mo mark bureaus" where
an effort is made to put them back on
the right track. The use of added
tags was discouraged, except where
absolutely necessary, and then two
should be added.
The present campaign is regarded
as one of the most significant and
important steps taken by transpor-
tation agency for the betterment OF
its service, The local meetings were
held simultaneously with similar
gatherings of express companies en-
ployees in every city and town IN the
country. A second meeting OF the
service will held next week and
other topics of pertinent interest to the
campaign will be taken up.

Passed Cigarette License Bill

r.he Senate fixed up and passed the
new state cigarette law Wednesday
in two hours time. That was pretty
good, too, because nobody was sure
that such law could be fixed up and
passed at this session by either
house. Senator Rule had the bill, and
in it he provides, for state license
of 500 for each dealer in cigarettes

ACTIVITIES OF THE
State LEGISLATURE
CONTINUED from page !

current resolution presented the 9TH
er day by Senator Wilson of Appa-
moose county. It calls for referendum
in advance for an expression of the
voters at the election in 1920 as to
whether the present form OF legis-
lative bodies in Iowa shall be abolish
ed and single house or commits
sion, or court of statesmen, or what
ever it may be called, be established
instead. Every ten years the voters
of this state vote upon the question
as to whether or not convention
shall be called to amend and revise
the constitution of the state. 1t will
be voted on next year. Senator Will
sons resolution provides that "1F"
the voters do vote to have such a
constitutional convention held the
form of General Assembly or law
making body shall be submitted to
such convention for a change to a
body of one assembly. or house, or
whatever it may be called. Senator
Wilson admits that no state now has
such plan of state government, but
he believes the time will come when
a much smaller and better assembly
of men will be provided for to make
the states laws and consider vital
legislation, and that they will be in
almost continuous sessions and make
that their entire business. Now,
right off the reel, are you for or
against it?
All the state employees in the Of
fees of the capitol building held a
meeting in the state house one eve
ming recently and sought to organize
to get their salaries raised. They
planned, it is said, to make a state
wide campaign, bringing every influ-
ence of their friends to bear on the
legislators to compel the raise in sail
aries Then more practical counsel
prevailed and they appointed a COM
mittee of three to take the matter up
with the, appropriations and depart
mental affairs committees, which has
been done. The latter committee
asked for list Of all the employees Of
the various departments, statement
of their duties, whether they are en-
ployed for all or part of the time,
what their pay Asw Is, and what they
think it ought to be. There is an i'm
preston that gets to every legisla-
tive assembly that there are a good
many state employees, clerks, ETC.,
whose service are not required by
their department Chiefs but the trou-
BILE is to discover which ones these
are, and not do injustice to any. Some
of the most important department
heads and clerks are said to be the
most neglected in the salary lists, be.
cause they do not devote SO much eff
fort to gettias their stipend raised
as others vhe haYe HIS else to do.
