Talks Will BE Made In the

Tonight.

Red Cross talks will be made at

AT Riyesvilie. Last night talks were
made at local theatres and at a meet :
ipg held at Hoult.
Mr.. Jacobs speech to the knights
of Pythias in this city last night made
quite an impression. Among the
things he said:
4 No organization went into the great
world war with a firmer, grip on tho
confidence Of the American people,
and none came out of the great atrug-
gle with Service" better rendered,
written on its banner tlRan did the
American Red Cross.
It was the one great national or
ganization that had the sympathy, this
ienergies5 time, service and money OF
the men, women and children Of all
nationelities.
Its nurses carried the mother
touch" and home comforts" to the
sick and wounded soldier boy from
the time he left home until he reach
ed the front lines. Its war work Is
not yet done. AS long as there is'
ono of our soldiers on foreign soil, or
in camp in the home land the Amer,
lean Red Cross will need money AMI
workers.
We all want to forget the war rs
soon as possible and spend our time
and energy.in breaking down the mil
itary spirit in all the nations OF the
world. Those who could say most
about the hard experiences of this
war arc the ones who are saying the
least.
But with this great war over, and
we trust and believe the last great
world war, our faces must again be-
turned to meet conditions ahead Of
us. There will coms sireat fires,
floods. famine. disaster and epidemics
and this national organization must

DENY BURLESON ADMISSION TO
 THEIR SOCIETY

Denver, Sept. 5.-Honorary mem bership in the Association Western Union Employees. a national organiza- ton, was denied Postmaster General Burleson at the annual conference of the association here today. A report of the Committee of Resolutions was adopted recommending that a resolu- tion extending honorary membership be rejected.
 The report said MT. Burleson 'ex- pressed no compunction in rejecting the associations agreement with the company and deliberately denied us the benefit of the retroactive pay"
 The report added that he displayed his true heartlessness in reducing the rate of pay for Sunday work and kept the association in a dangerous and nervous suspense for three long months before expressing his deci- sion"

Police This Morning Tell Schenkan to Get Out of
 City Quickly.
NO MORE PERMITS TO
 BE ISSUED AGITATORS

With the settlement of the CoIum- bit GraphOphons strike, police today moved to clear out of Bridgeports Bolshevists who have come here, it is declared to spread dangerous propa- ganda among the foreign element of the population. No more will be al lowed in the city and paid agitators coming here will not be allowed to hold meetings in town.
 Pressure is being brought to bear upon Samuel Schenkan, the ". I. l. U. organizer, in an effort to clear him out of Bridgeport. Schenkan admits that he came to Bridgeport for the purpose of organizing the strikers at the GraphOphone plant Now that the trouble has been definitely set tied, the police see no reason why Schenkan should remain in this city.
 The stand of the police was made clear to Schenkan during a confer ence held this morning in the ofica of Superintendent John H. Redgate The labor organizer was notified thai his work in Bridgeport is completed; his presence here is no longer need ed; and to get out of town.
 In a. further effort to prevent labor troubles in Bridgeport, the police are reported to have Issued a warning against the placing of pickets at the Graphophone Co.'S plant or any other factory where a strike is not actually | 'n progress.
 A stop will also be put to the many meetings which have been and were scheduled to be held in Bridgeport for the purpose of spreading propa ganda among the foreign residents Ot this city. Speakers from New York city have addressed meetings ir Bridgeport on the supposed subject of telling the foreigners how to get back to their home countries, but the fact is evident that these speech makers told the foreigners why and uot how to get back to Europe.

ID Coliseum
 Tonight
To Make Short Address In St. Louis Hotel
 This Afternoon. DUE IN KANSAS
 CITY TOMORROW

St. Louis, Sept. 5-President Wilson reached today the real beginning of his western speaking tour in the interest of the peace treaty-the start of his long swing around the circles of States west of the Mississippi.
 Having sounded the keynote of his appeal in addresses yesterday at Co., lumbus and Indianapolis, MT Wilson planned to take a brief respite from speechmaking today before plunging into the arduOus program that will carry him into virtually every West ern state. Arriving in St. Louis early this morning, he arranged to slF~p late on his special train and, tileH 10 keep most of the day free.
 Early in the afternoon, however, he was to attend a luncheon at a down town hotel, where it was expected he woud make a brief talk on the treaty and in the evening he was to speak at the Coliseum, where in 1916 he was renominated for the Presidency.
 In Missouri the President found a situation as regards ratification of the peace treaty without an exact parallel in any other state. In the treaty ratifying body at Washington the state is represented by Senator Reed the only Democratic Senator who has taken a definite stand for the treaty's rejection, and Senator Spenc- CT. one of the Republican Senators who have declared themselves gcner- ally friendly 70 it, and have agreed on a set of reservations as a basia for it's acceptance.
 In St. Louis, Senator Reed recently made an add1 ess bitterly assailing the treaty and within the next few weeks, Senator Johnson, of California, a. Re publican member of the Foreign Re latiOns Commission, and others are expected to address opposing meet inEs. In addition to his address here tonight, the President is to make an address in Kansas City tomorrow morning.

Wilson Agrees To Use
 Power To Bring Steel
 Co. To Discuss Issues
GOmpers Sends Tele- gram to President Asking That Confer ence Be Arranged Be- fore Tuesday When 24 Unions Plan Action.

Washington, Sept. 5-Presi- dent Wilson has agreed to un- dertake to bring about a con ference between representa- lives of the steel workers and of the United States Steel Cor poration in an effort to avert a threatened strike.
 The President was asked in a teIe- gram sent him today by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, and the commit tee of steel men, to say whether a conference could be arranged before next Tuesday when the presidents of the 24 international unions in the steel industry will meet here to take such action as they might deem nee eSsary.
 The telegram to the President fol lows:
 The executive committee repre- sentins the various international unions in the iron and steel industry met today to consider the awful sit uation which exists in many of the iron and steel industry centers. The coercion, the brutality employed to prevent men and unions from meet ing in halls engaged, upon private property, in the open air, the thug gerry of the corporatiOn's emissaries the wholesale discharge of numbers Of men for no other reason than the one assigned, that they have become members of the union, have brought about such a situation that it Is eX. ceedingly difficult to withhold or re- strain the indignation of the men and the resistance that they declare it i: their purpose to prevent.
