attached to the discharge papers of
every man released from camp. At
the suggestion of General Munson of
the General Staff this material has
also been sent by special messenger
to Paris, in order that it may be
printed and distributed to men en-
barking for home. Six hundred thou
sand copies are to be printed as the
Army edition and the Navy will be
similarly supplied.
In the preamble of the book the
purpose of the Red Cross is stated as
the desire to put at the service of re-
turning soldiers either information or
more substantial help as they may
need it. "Our greatest opportunity
to be of service, the preamble says,
''may come while you and your fam
lily are getting back to every day life.
Whatever we shall have the oppor-
tunity to do, working with you, we
shall gladly do thru the Home Ser
vice section of the Red Cross" The
book gives condensed but easily un-
derstood information upon such topics
as "Why Government Insurance Should
be Kept Up and How" "What Com
pensation has Been Established by the
Government for Injury or Disease" +"
"How Arrears Of Pay May Be APP
Piled" "What Opportunities and Plans
Have Been Provided for Disabled
Men," and the "Plans of the Red
Cross for Supplementing the Govern
ment's Work."

mately 300 hours; or for eight
months of service of not less than
three days a week; or for twelve
months of service of not less than two
days week, approximately 300 hours.
In computing periods of service,
only service subsequent to April 6,
1917, shall be considered.
In chapter production, work done

knitting of garments, shall be esti-

Disabled soldiers and sailors dis
charged from service probably know
more about the government plans for
their civil re-establishment than do
the people of Medina.
These plans include all necessary
medical, surgical and convalescent
treatment in government hospitals.
During this time the men are still in
service technically and receive their
regular pay and family allowances.
If man, eligible for compensa-
ton, is unable to resume his peace
time occupation when he is well
enough to be discharged, the Federal
Board for Vocational Education win
provide training in any suitable work
that he may choose. Both compen-
sation and family allowance will be
made by the government during train
ing.
Those men who are able to take up
their old line of work, are helped by
the Federal Board thru its employ
ment bureaus to find the best job
possible and are paid compensation
by the War Risk Insurance so long
as the disability for which they were
discharged continues to exist.
The government realizes that how
ever wise and benefcent it's plans,
there will still be cases which these
plans cannot cover. The Red Cross
has been asked to cooperate with the
government agencies. Each Red Cross
Home Service Section has a repre-
sentative whose duty it is to look out
for the needs of discharged men and
to help them get in touch with the
government provisions for their well
fare.
Our wounded men deserve better
r return for their services to their
country than the brief enthusiasm of
! people at home. The Red Cross has
been asked to urge upon every one
> the fact that returned soldiers do not
wish the kind of sympathy that takes
them out of the course of life they
! must pursue in the future.

Count your hours; if you have
worked out your 300 hours, take it up

those cute little pinafores, are ideal
work for the speeding of the hours.
What Does 1t Cost to Run the Red
Cross Organization?
1t cost the American Red Cross but
two cents of each dollar of the mil
lions appropriated to operate the ad-
ministrative bureaus in the United
States which took vital part in the
management of the greatest relief
program the world has ever known.
For each dollar contributed by the
American people for War Relief more
than one dollar and one cent is ex-
pended for that purpose, the extra
cent being provided by interest on
the funds.

RAIL WAY SHOP MEN
GET NATIONAL PACT

WASHINGTON, Oct While
the steel trust and other anti-union
employers are attempting to hold
back the tides of time the United
States Railroad Administration has
signed a national agreement with
the Railway Employees Department
of the A. F. Of L., in which hours
of labor, working conditions and
rates of pay are provided for the
100000 Railroad Shop Men on all
roads under Government operation
The interested unions are the In
ternational organizations of Ma
chinists, Boiler Makers, Sheet Met
al Workers, Blacksmiths, Electrical
Workers and Railway Carmen
The agreement recognizes the
right of the A. F of l.. affiliates to
represent and negotiate for their re
spective groups. The following are
some of the important principles es-
tablished:
Eight-hour day, with extra pay
for overtime.
Abolition of piece work, bonus
and premium systems.
Personal injury cases may be
handled by committees or represent
atives in the same manner as griev-
ances are handled.
Rules for the handling of griev-
ances through committees with rail
road officials.
Craft point seniority established
and definite avenues of promotion
outlined.
Rates of pay retroactive to May /,
1919, and a 80 days clause for
amending the agreement.
Where shop man is engaged
outside the shop, he shall receive
his standard pay. Formerly, if a
machinist, for instance, was en-
ployed in signal maintenance, he re-
ceived a lesser rate, but the agree
ment provides that a machinist is a
machinist regardless of where he
does machinist work.
Acting President Jewell, of the
Railway Shop Employees Depart
ment, states that this is the first
national agreement ever secured by
any labor organization or group of
labor organizations in this country.
He shows that all other agreements
secured by trade unions have ap-
piled to divisions or sections of the
country and that the present agree
ment is the result of development
of national federation, starting with
craft unions in the various shops.

ABNORMAL SUGAR DEMAND


The present sugar shortage, the
President of the Sugar Equalization
Board told a Senate Committee, is
due to the abnormal use of the
sweet in recent months He might
have added that this n turn was
due to prohibition.
Since this state became dry the
quantity of sugar used in soft
drinks, candies and other WAYS, It
Is said has increased materially. one
soft drink parlor on Hewitt Avenue
sells more than $400 worth of candy
a month and this is only a side line
There are scores OF others i'm the
city.
The extension Of prohibition
throughout the United states no
doubt has increased the demand for
candy generally as it has here IN
Washington where the state has
been dry longer than most States
The Tribune Of the nth.
The Tribune has it right as far
as it went, but there. are other
causes.
There is said to be more sugar
in Seattle than for some time past.
The packers Of fruit seem to have
all the sugar they want and it was
found necessary to pinch off the
public supply to favor the big
fellows.
This week several of our retail
grocers We're unable TO supply their
patrons, yet there are thousands of
tons of sugar in storage waiting for
the close Of the canning season and
to enable profiteering hoarders to
reap a golden harvest from the in
creased demand and increased
prices.

have fallen far short of normal pro-
duction this year, but this should

THE TRUTHFUL PRESS

During the efforts of labor men to
gain what they are Justly entitled TO
by the only means left them, the
strike, 1t is both disgusting and
amusing to note the efforts of the
daily press to pose as truthful tell
ers of the news, while they leave no
opportunity pass to give labor Kick
on the sly. In reporting walk outs,
tie-ups, and other incidents OF labor
troubles. they either by omission or
commission manage with the most
Consummate tact to do what they
can to discourage the toilers, and so
notorious has this become that the
public has lost much of the respect
formerly entertained for their truth
fulness and integrity
II a man worth millions is called
hence. the penny liner who fills up
the maws of the greedy presses, ex-
erts himself to dig up all his good
qualities If he has any, and smooth
over any evil propensities he may
have had, but let toiler be called
hence, he will hardly be noticed by
these sCribblers, though he may have
led an upright and righteous life, and
the only crime that could be attrib-
uted to him is that of poverty, and
so common has this trait become by
the press, as a rule, the eulogies they
spread upon their pages only awaken
disgust on one hand, and amusement
on the other.
The same spirit actuates them In
reporting labor troubles, and causes
an exercise of superhuman ingenuity
on their part to color the facts to
suit their purposes, and so notorious
has this method become, and so pat
ent to the reading public is their eff
fort to behttle labor's cause, that all
statements they make are taken with
a large grain of allowance, and but
few intelligent readers are deceived.
