 Evading Workers

 The drive has been in progress three days, and in that time, $2,00O has been gained toward quota of $5,5OO for the county. That the women who are working in the inter est of the Red Cross campaign in Pine Bluff are disappointed, is shown by a report made by the chairman, Mrs. Taylor last night, who said the people of the city were not respond ing as they should. Not only, it is stated, are they refusing to donate a dollar to the campaign, but they are evading the workers by the lady of the house, when approached saying her husband would take care of that family, while the husband, when ap- preached, alleged the wife was tc take care of the situation.
 "The people of Pine Bluff would be astounded," Judge w. B. Sorrells said last night, Eff they knew the ones who are refusing to enlist as g member in this campaign" And the people of means, he stated, were foremost among them.
 A list of those who have subscrib ed is held by the workers, and those who have not subscribed, will be ask. ed again, when today and during thf reainder of the week, the ladies vii redouble their efforts to keep Jeffer son county among those countie: which always Ego over" in charitable and war work activities.

 By proclamation of Governor Brough, November Il has been set aside as American Legion day" throughout the state, and he has urged that the people everywhere ia the state observe it with appropriate celebrations. While it is not sug- gested that the day be celebrated as intensely as it was last November, yet it is urged that the day be observed as holiday, with parades and other ceremonies and exercises.
 Major Daniel Taylor, who recently returned from overseas where ne served with the judge advocates gen. erals department, and who now is in Washington, is expected home 5y that time, and will probably be select ed as a speaker for the occasion. The local chapter of the Red Cross also will probably take part in the cele- bration as that organization was So closely allied army, navy and marine corps men during the war.
 The fact that the Red Cross drive for members ends on armistice day is another factor which will probably influence that organization in taking part in the ceremonies which might be planned for American Legion day."

 Territory.


 Senator Sutherland's bill for the abolishment of the Publicity Bureau failed to pass the House yesterday afternoon, by vote of s to ', with Speaker White not voting.
 The bill which came up for it's final passage yesterday afternoon was first supported by MT. Collins who urged that the Publicity Bureau as an unnecessary expense, be done away with.
 Speaker White then gave history of the Bureau, told of the manner in which is worked, and the various things it did. He cited the fact that last Fall, through the Publicity BG- reau. two hundred men from the in terior had secured winter work at the Kennecott mines and that the Governor had been thanked for the services of the Bureau by the mar ager of the mine. These men alone, earned and distributed again in Al aska during the winter more than | $10O,000. MT. White said. MT Collins then called the Bureau | a disgrace, saying that a secretary attached to the Governors office l could do the whole work that the Blu reau is doing for S2O0 a month. Favoring the continued mainaten- ance of the Bureau, MT Pennington said that advertising was the basis of the success of every business proposition, and that he considered advertise.
 MT. Noon spoke at length of the good derived by various communi- | ties with which he was acquainted | by advertising and of resources in | Alaska which needed only advert1s- ing to increase the population of the North
 Mir. Daily and MT Collins again supported the bill and urged that it pass the House. MT, Daly main tained that Alaska was already sui ficiently advertised by various steam ship companies.
 When the roll was called the vote vas as follows:
 Ayes-Allan, Began, Collins, Daly, Davies, Dunn, Rydeen and Slater.
 Noes Casey, Noon, Nordale, Pat
 erson, Pennington, Ray, Sowerby White.
 Mir. Collins challenged MT. Whites right to vote, and the Speaker with drew his vote. o
