man VIII H. Hays. OF the republican

call TO all republicans urging their
united and effective support of the

men, all state c.garization workers,
all county chairmen and all precinct
committeeman ani TO all republican

The text of the appeal reads:
To Republicans OF the Nation:
Again the call for the charge has
sounded.
This is not for the fighting men at
the fighting front For them the war
is over. Their uart is accomplished
TO their own everlasting honor and
the glory of the nation. and no addi-
tional burden should be theirs.
But to the rest the real test has
come.
To those WHOSE privilege it has
been to form the 5. cond line, and to
whose credit it is recorded that they,
too, attained every objective; TO those
from every class, creed and political
faith. who acted in that unselfish CO.
operation which l., ught to the fight
ing men the support that made so
much for the complete vindication of
| GU American institutions; to the men
and women of America, who do not
, fail has this call come.
Let us show to these fighting men
who have returned how commands
have been obeyed here. Let us send
to the fighting men still abroad the
message of no Weakening. Lei us
show to the world our patriotism is
not born only of ~ tremities and stir
red only by martial music, but the de-
votion which meets duty in the firm
determination of Consecrated service,
and performs il. Ard let us demon
strate to ourselves that We are worthy
of the name American and the privi'
leges of our citizenship.
Our first duty as republicans today
is that duty of y hioh we have never

cans. Just as during the recent war
we determined our every act by how
We could do most for effective action
so now We will measure our every
step by how we car contribute most
to the nations welfare.
To that end We will abandon all
other activities 90 aid in the Victory
I oan until its success has been ac
complished.
Fer this purpose let the republican
press and every r,ember OF the re
publican organization enlist in the Vic

No Sunday Rest.
Sunday has not been a day Of
rest for the Red Cross motor
corps. which is serving at Rock
Islands aviation field and has been
busily Transporting supplies and
ayiators to and from the city.
Yesterday Captain Catherine
Marshall and her motor drivers
thought they were to be off duty
since there would be no Sunday fly
ing. Then came a call from the
Red Cross canteen on the field to
the effect that one of the flyers and
his mechanic must get to Daven-
port at once. The motor corps was
on theS job in record time, proving
that Red Cross is ready in peace
time as IT was in war.
That Rock Island gives the flyers
the best service of any city on the
route, is the word given Red Cross
workers on the field by a number
of the aviators, "To find a hot meal
awaiting US at the Red Cross can
teen and to find automobiles at or
disposal is a new experience to us,
said one of the men. The service
here Is being talked about in New
York and the men have passed on
the word that Rock Island viii
treat them splendidly."
Hot fried eggs between two
slices of deIiciousIy fresh bread
and steaming hot coffee was the
menu that greeted yesterdays ar
irving pilots. And there were
doughnuts and other good things
for those who wanted them. 1t 5

ASKS GAS RATE
OF ST Be GIVEN
EXTENDED Time
Peoples Power Company Files Ap-
plicatiOn With Illinois Public
Utilities Body.

Application asking the extension
of the life of the 81 gas rate has
been filed with the Illinois public
utilities commission by the
Peoples Power company.
The rate will revert to s. cents
on Nov. 1 unless the commission
grants the application. Dollar gas
has been the tariff in effect for the
last IS months, having been auth
OTized by the state commission as
effective on May l, 1919. At that
time the rate was increased from
IS cents which had been secured
the year before from the Illinois
public utilities commission by the
then Mayor William McConochie
and the city commission.
The state commission in May,
1918, granted the 81 rate effective
for a period of one year. This
spring it granted an extension Of
six months on the rate, this term to
expire on Nov. l. Consequently
unless the state commission viii
grant the increase. the rate per
1000 feet will automatically revert
to So cents.
Shows Per Cent Earnings.
In a report for the third quarter
filed with the Illinois public util-
tiles commission today, the
Peoples Power company shows
that during the last three months,
its revenues were SIPS, 1853, its
expenses $96. 6IL73, and its profits
S29.064S6. which Manager r. h.
Macdonald said today is a 8 per
cent earning on the valuation es-
tabllshed by the state commission
a year ago
The profits are IS per cent less
than in the corresponding quarter
of last year, The profit in 1918 for
the quarter being $44,632. The
reason tor this, Manager MaCDOn
old declared. is that there has been
a 10 per cent decrease in sales.
