lhc Board OF DIRECTORS OF the
Madison County Chapter, Ameri-
can Red Cross, Mr.. Neale Ben
nett, chairman, Mrs. w. H. Grid
err vice chairman, met Friday at
headquarters to perfect arrange
ments for the third membership

and continues for one week. M
Mr.. McCreary Simmons, one
of FIVE brothers who were in the
service during the war, is the
chairman of the drive.
A brief statement of the rea-
sons for this drive seems to be
in order. %
While the War of Nations has
come to an end, the war against
sickness and poverty and need OF
every kind continues.
1t is to provide soldiers and am
munition for this war that the
drive of next week will be made.
The American Red Cross is
the greatest organization for
good except the Church of God,
that the world has ever seen.
To know what it stood for dur
ing the four dreadful years of war
| you have only to ask any return
ed soldier or sailor,
It sent them letters, books
papers and boxes to cheer their
lonely and homesick hearts. |:
fed them in German prison camps
land there it clothed their freez-
ling bodies. 1t carried them torn
and bleeding from the battle field
to shelter and warmth, to be
lnursed back to health an6
strength. And alas-it buried
them and placed a marker ovei
their graves in a far-off land.
| The "after war work" program
lhas for its object to combat, dis.
ease, poverty and crime; te
teach sanitation; to build up the
community health; to be ready
for every emergency, local o.
otherwise when it arises. "a
work whose Importance canno
be minimized.
The Madison county chaptel
has in its treasury sum of which
it wishes to hold for the needs O
Madison county.
i If we can hold our organiza
ton we can keep the money. 1
I'VE let the organization lapse, i
must be turned over to the Ma
tional Society.
The memberships are for on
|year and all expire with thi
month. The money belongs t.
the Red Cross and if there is NJ
Red Cross chapter in Madison
county of course the county ha'
no right to the money.
i Last year we had about three
thousand members. We shoult
Ihave as many this year.
| You saw the wonderful process
sion on Friday of our future citi
zens, the school children of Madi
son county, but wards of the Ret
Cross. Any one of those children
may some day need the help o
the Red Cross.
Aside from these local con
siderations it should mean some
thing to us to belong to a society
to which the King and Queen 0
Belgium, of Italy, Of England
gladly pay homage, of which th'
President of the United States il
the head; something to feel tina
we are sending helpers through
out the world to give food ane
comfort and nurses to the poo

We are not asking for sums o
money. We are asking only tt

has made SO splendid a record
this splendid force for good.
Pay your dollar and wear you

PACKERS WERE
 PREPARED TO
 SUPPLY ALLIES
Industry Mobilized for War Basis Before Lusitania
 Was Sunk.

Kansas City, Mo, July 24.-Some of the great accomplishments of American business during the war are just beginning to creep to the sur face now that the ban of censorship has been removed.
 The preparation and handling of meat food products was one of the greatest necessary industries, and 1t was fortunate for the country that the packing industry was already mobi1ized for service long before the Iusitania was sunk.
 The manner in which the packers met the emergencies which acrose during the war is well illustrated in the case of Swift S5 Co, who, in one week, filled a government order for 32, 900 pounds of meat and fat. This necessitated the dressing of 13,- GOO cattle and 2OO,OO hogs and re- quired 1000 freight cars to trans port.
 Another instance is found in an order which was received one Sat- urday afternoon at , o'clock for z,- 000,000 pounds of a special cut of dry salt meats. The War Departm ent wanted this shipment of forty-t three cars boxed and on the way by the following Tuesday noon-less than seventy hours distant. Swift & Co. had the last car loaded and rolling an hour before noon on Tuesday.
 In still another case the govern ment could get no one to put up fresh brtter in tins for overseas shipment Swift & Co.,, accepted an order for 500,000 pounds on May 4, 1918. It was necessary to equip three cream cries with machinery and supplies, and to organize the help to do work entirely new to them, but the first car was rolling eastward in thirty three days, and @ month later the entire order was completed.
 A total of 0,000,00O worth of supplies was furnished by Swift & Co. alone to the American and Allied governments during the war. The peak was reached in December, 1918, when the goods furnished total1ed s35,000,000 in this one month.

LEGION WANTS
 TO DISBURSE
 $120,000 FUND
State Will Assist Needy Former Service Men Hon.
 orably Discharged.

State Treasurer G. Harold Gf1pat- rfc yesterday authorized the state ment that his department was prepar- ed to advance the funds required to support the act of the Legislature of 1919 providing financial assistance for discharged soldiers, sailors and mar ines in Connecticut. The finances of the department are so arranged" he said, that the money for the ex,- service men will be available for dis trtbutton by their own organization the minute it is formed, as required by the statute, and demand is made upon the board of control in the prescribed manner. There need Do absolutely no doubt in the minds of the boys about getting the money"
 Upon being informed last night of the treasurer's statement. Captain James B. Moody, Jr., a member of the state executive committee of the American Legion. announced that plans would be fatd before the Aug ust meeting of the committee to re- quest that the American Legion be authorized to disburse the fund That organization already has <hirty-one posts organised in the state and nine- teen in process of organization put ting 1t ahead of any other service mems organization in Connecticut. He believed that the legion would be pre- pared in October to ask the adminis- tration of the fund
 Inasmuch as the 0tatute provides that the interest accumulatIons of a $2,500,000 fund be allowed for assist ing needy former service men, 1t is es- timated that about sf20.0oo a year will be available, The State Board of Control will act as e board oe trus- tees of the fund, turrdng the entire amount over to "the treasurer of an organizati ton of sofdiera sailors and marines wfro enteped any branch of said service of the United States dur ing the period of said war and who were accredited to the quota, from this state and who were citizens or resi- dent aliens of this state on the sixth day of April. t917, and since said date have been engaged fin any of said branches of service. and were honor ably discharged therefrom, or were engaged in the military or naval serv- ice of the allies of the United States in said war and have been honora-. bly discharged therefrom.' The sol- diers' organization that is to disburse the fund will have to be organized before May 21, 1920.
 Assistance will be given to the needy men in the way of furnishing food, clothes, medical or surgical aid or in bearing funeral expenses Widows of such men. or their de- pendent children undeP 18 yeara old, alsot will be entitled to such as- sistance. The attention of the American Legion has been called to Q number of needy cases, considered to be worthy under the new law,

TAFT APPEALS DEMOCRATS TO
 ALTER TREATY
(Continued from Page One)

tCOnG1nueQ would be disposed to accept any in terpretations It was said, however, that the administration would oppose to the last any qualifying clauses which would require negotiation of the treaty.
 Inquiring why the treaty with France proposing that the United States aid that country in the event of an unprovoked attack by Germany has not been submitted to the Sen ate, Senator Brandegee, Republican, Connecticut, read into the record to- day a magazine article quoting the text of the document requiring that it be submitted for ratification "at the same time' as the treaty with Germany.
 While the Connecticut senator was reading the article a White House messenger entered with a message from the President.
 "Maybe the authenticated text of the treaty" said Senator Erandegee.
 Vice President Marshall examined the envelope, then replied:
 T will say to the senator that it is.''
 When MT. Marshall had opened the envelope, however, he found that in stead it was a proposed extension of the British-American waterways con- vention, first adopted in 1S23, and he again interrupted Senator Brandegee to change his announcement.
 Secretary Lansing, who returned to Washington today from Paris, had a long conference with the President at the White House during the fore noon, discussing the situation at the peace conference and other matters
