The Dispatch feels that no urgent
appeal to the people of the county
is necessary to support the Victory
Loan. This county has made an
enyiable record in the world war
Her sons have written high upon
the Scroll of Fame the record of their
fine achievement in support OF our
flag. Our sons lie asleep in the
fields of France. where the peoples
grow, glorious sacrifices that Ameri-
ca might live. Others have brought
back trophies of vaIor snatehed at
the lannon's mouth. All came back
with the record of duty valiantly
performed.
The people back home have given
their undivided support to their
country. They sacrificed and served
that the boys might win There was
no demand made upon them that
was not most willingly and most
cheerfulIy acceded to. All entered
into the spirit OF war and all worked
unitedly to make victory sure. This
city and county met every demand
of our government for the support
of its obligations. Now comes the
last, the best, the Victory Loan. Our
share must be written. The govern
ment's slogan is Lets Finish the
Job" 1t is appropriate and appeal
ing to all the finer attributes of our
patriotism. The people of this coun-
ty must finish their end of the job.
The Victory Loan is easily the
most attractive and popular of all
the governments offerings. The loan
is really short term notes. They
are convertible into other forms of
collaterals. They bear a most at
tractive interest rate. The amount
asked is much smaller than was ex-
pected. II is the last government Of
fering to the people. II winds up
and ends the appeal to all to buy
bonds to finance the expense OF war.
Surely, under these circumstances
our people will finish the job. Ger
tainly they will crown the record of
their patriotism with success in this
loan.

ALUMNAE NOTES (:
tFrom College SPECTATOR


On last Tuesday, April the 18th,
Alumnae Day was observed. DR..
Rena Crawford was the honor guest
and the speaker of the occasion. DR..
Crawford is one of our most distin-
guished alumnae, both in attain
ments and service. She has served
on the faculty of the l. /. and G.
from which she holds an A. b. de-
gree, she holds a Phi. d. degree from
the University of Chicago, and NJ. A.
degree from Columbia University,
and an NJ. D. degree from Johns Hop
kins University won for her a special
appointment to an interneship in
big hospital in New York. While in
New York, DR.. Crawford had the dis
tinction of being chosen to go to Ed
inburg, Scotland, for work in hos
pital for children. Later she was in
hospital in London and in one in
France.
At eight o'clock on the evening of
Alumnae Day DR.. Crawford spoke to
a large crowd in the auditorium of
the Music Hall. She told with feel
ing and interest her many and var
led experiences in government hospi-
tails during the war. Her audience
was deeply moved and also entertain
ed by graphic portrayal of scenes
and incidents she witnessed "over
there"
Immediately following the lecture
an informal reception was held in
Miss Browns Studios. At that time
the faculty of the I. |. and c., the
Alumnae. and their friends had the
pleasure of meeting DR. Crawford.

SOLID AGAINST
STEEL STRIKERS
Manufacturers Claim Recog-
milton Would Lower Effic-
iency in Plant Operation

Pittsburgh, Sept. 13.-Efforts to
canvass the iron and steel trades re-
views as to the probable extent OF
| the strike movement do not de-
velop anything like uniformity of
opinion. In some quarters it is
| thought probable that there will be
fairly extensive Crossings of plants,
while in other quarters it is regard
ed likely that the matter will blow
over with a minimum of distur C.
ance. 1t is a case of mob psychoi-
ogy." Many men may go out in one
plant, while in another there may be
no defections. That was the case
in the campaign of organization,
nearly all the common labor Joining
the union in some mill towns, while
in other mill towns. the organizers
were run out and told not to Ie-
turn.
At all times the manufacturers
have been aware of the progress the
organization work was making. The
organizers seemed to think the man
ufacturers did not know that anv
progress was being made, but that
was a mistake. due merely to the
manufacturers being silent when
they had no occasion to speak.
One thing that the iron and steel
manufacturers are united upon, and
that without their holding meetings
or having any general interchange
of views, is that no concessions
whatever will be made to the orGan-
ization movement. The manufac-
turers are all agreed that to admit
any degree of unionism whatever
would be to destroy all efficiency in
plant operation. The labor unrest
now so prevalent throughout the
country has resulted in a marked
decrease in the efficiency of the
workmen in the iron and steel IN
dustry, resulting in the majority of
steel plants producing less tonnage
than they should, and this is re-
garded as but n small sample of
what would occur if unions were
recognized. The position of the Steel
Corporation has been made abso-
lutely plain, that it's management
will not even confer with men 9TH
er than their own employees. While
the Independent producers have al
most invariably been willing to fol-
low the lead of the Steel Corpora
ton in trade matters, there never
was an issue on which they were
more ready to follow the Steel Cor
portaion5s policy than in the present
one of unionization.

ITALIANS FACE
COAL SHORTAGE
THIS WINTER
Try to Obtain Enough For
the Season in South
Russia

Rome, Sept 13.-The italian gov
ernment is trying to obtain coal from
Southern Russia so as to stave off the
menace of winter without a source
OF heat. Two commercial commissions
nave been sent to the vast basin of
the Donetz in Southern Russia where
Italian experts estimated there were
untouched coal lands that would yield
of'"oO'0O0.000 tons. The experts also
say there are $4,000. .000. 900 of tons
of coal in Siberia or in parts of Eu-
ropean Russia outside OF the Donetz
ba sin.
1t Is calculated that If the coal sup
ply OF southern Russia were properly
exploited the territory would furnish
all the coal necessary for the Mediter-
ranean countries.
Coal for Italy is now quoted at
$3.50 at Norfolk. Va. but 1t costs $40
ton to bring IL to Genoa.

that the shopkeepers were prottteer-
ing. According to information reach
ing American army headquarters a

bers the stores which were known TO
have charged high prices.
In the interior of Germany marga-
rine has been quoted recently at SIN

tributed to the fact that large guam
titles have lately been bought abroad
at higher prices than formerly owing
to the low rate of German exchange
