Armistice Day To Be Observed
 In WranseII
Returned Soldiers and Sail ors Requested to Appear
 In Their Uniforms.

Armistice Day, Tuesday, Mo- vember II, will be observed in Wrangell by a short patriotic program, followed by a dance at the Redmen's hall.
 Mr. c. c. Mitchell, of the Wrangell Public school, will be the principal speaker. A special section will be reserved for re- turned soldiers and sailors who are requested to appear in their uniforms.
 The first anniversary of the signing of the armistice is of great significance to the people of America and the world. This year, and in all years to come it will be a day of public rejoicing. Wrangell, while not attempting anything in the way of pageantry, should not fail to generously dis play the national colors next Tues day. Let every business house, residence and cabin put out the flags of our country. And those who are fortunate enough to pos sess the flags of our Allies should display them also.
 The program for the Wrangell celebration will begin at o:30 D. m. in Redmens hall.
 No admission will be charged to either the patriotic exercises or the dance.
 Everyone is urged to show his Americanism by attending this patriotic observance.

 WASHINGTON--The Govern ment cannot accept the proposal of organized labor to end the coal strike by vacating the in- junction against the officials of the United Mine Workers of Am erica, Assistant Attorney General Ames announced today. Ames issued the following statement: 'The strike is a violation of law. As long as it continues we are going to proceed in the courts. The dispute between the mine owners and the workers is an en- tirely different question. That they can settle in their own way. The Government cannot tolerate continued violations of law, such as this strike constitutes"

Third Annual Red Cross Roll Call
 Now In Progress

The annual Red Cross drive, known as the Third Red Cross Roll Call, opened last Sunday and will close on Armistice Day, Tuesday, November II.
 The committee in charge of the drive is composed of J. G. Grant, chairman; Leo Mccormack, Wm. Lewis, H. w. Gartley, Wm. Pat terson, H. D. Campbell, Oscar Carlson, G. c. Mitchell, and Charles Benjamin.
 Every one is requested to con- tribute one dollar when answer ing the roll call. Do not feel sighted if no one calls on you, but hunt up some member of the committee and make your contri- button. Each person answering the roll call will receive a 1920 button. You should wear the button at least until after the drive is over. On Monday, Mo- vember 10 the committee will be out in full force soliciting every person not wearing a 1920 Red Cross button.
 Wrangell has made a brilliant record during previous Red Cross drives and there is no doubt that during the present drive the town. will sustain her enviable reputation.

orably. withdraw from Europe. The Congress of the United States has imposed upon the Red Cross a continuing responsibility abroad by authorizing the Secretary of War to transfer to the American Red Cross such surplus army medical supplies and supplement tary and dietary food stutfs now in Europe as shall not be required by the Army, to be used by the Red Cross to relieve the distress which continues in certain coun- tries of Europe as a result of the war.
 To finance these operations, to conclude work which was begun during the war, and to carry out some comparatively inexpensive constructive plans for assisting peoples in eastern Europe to de- velop their own welfare organiza- tions, the American Red Cross requires, in addition to member ship fees, sum of money small in comparison with the gifts pouring into it's treasury by our generous people during the war. Both the greater enduring do- mestic program. and the lesser temporary foreign program of the Red Cross deserve enthusiastic support, and 1 venture to hope that it's peace-time membership will exceed rather than fall below its impressive war membership.

Frank Dandy Passes Away

Frank Dandy passed away Mon day morning after short illness. Burial took place Tuesday after noon the funeral being conducted by Rev. H. P. Corser.
 Mir. Dandy was about 5o years of age. Little is known of his early life. William E. Lloyd, who was formerly in partnership with Mir. Dandy, says he thinks Dandy was born in the city of London, and partly raised there.
 MT. Dandy first came to Wran- gell during the rush of 'o8, and has resided in this region ever since. Before coming to Wrangell he spent three years on the Skeena river, and prior to that time he was located in Seattle tor several years.
 The only surviving relative of which anything is known is step son, Charles Morse, who left Wrangell last year for Portland. MT. Dandy manifested the affection of a real father for this step-son, and a few days before his death, stated that he expected Morse back in Wrangell soon, but did not say where the boy was located.
 U. s. Commissioner Wm. C.. Thomas appointed Wm. E. Lloyd administrator of the Dandy estate. The Commissioner also appointed the following appraisers: r. C. Mccormack, L. NJ. Churchill and ]. w. Pritchett

PRESIDENT WILSON URGES
 A HEARTY RESPONSE TO
 THIRD ANNUAL ROLL CALI

[Wriies before illness of endur-
 inglomestic program and les- ser temporary foreign power. ]
 As President of the United States and as President of the American Red Cross, l recom- mend and urge a generous re- sponse to the Third Red Cross Roll Call which opens on Novem- Der the second with the observ. ance of Red Cross Sunday and appropriately closes on November the 11th, the first anniversary of the signing of the Armistice.
 Twenty million adults joined the Red Cross during the war, prompted by a patriotic desire to render service to their country and to the cause for which the United States was engaged in war. Our patriotism should stand the test of peace as well as the test of war, and it is an intelli- gently patriotic program which the Red Cross proposes, a contin- uance of service to our soldiers and sailors who look to it for many things, and a transference to the problems of peace at home of the experience and methods which it acquired during the war. It Is on membership more than money contributions that the stress of the present campaign is laid, for the Red Cross seeks to associate the people in welfare work throughout the land, es- pecially in those communities where neither official nor un- official provision has been made for adequate public health and social service.
 It is in the spirit of democracy that the people should undertake their own welfare activities, and the National Red Cross wisely in- tends to exert upon community action a stimulating and coordi- mating influence and to place the energies of the organization be- hind all sound public health and welfare agencies.
 The American Red Cross does not purpose indefinite prolonga- ton of its relief work abroad, a policy which would lay an unjust burden upon our own people and tend to undermine the self-reli- ance of the people relieved, but there is a necessary work of com pletion to be performed before the American Red Cross can hon.

CHICAGO - Four hundred thousand coal miners are or strike today, according to esti mates made by officials of the labor organization who have re. ceived reports from many states Last night it was said that 395, 900 men were out but today this figure was raised and the belief was expressed that fully g half million would be out by Monday night.
 As a result of the strike, the production of coal in Pennsylva. mia. West Virginia, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Colorado, Kansas, Mon- tana, Wyoming, Texas and Washington has ceased. Opera tors generally are not trying to work the mines.
 On the part of the operators, there is little disposition to dis pute the figures of the unions as to the number of men out. They admitted that more men are walking out today.
 From North Dakota the report was received that 1500 Ignite miners had remained at work in compliance with orders received from the unions national head. quarters.
