rendered destitute by ravages of war.
There have been so many campaigns
here for old clothing during the last
two years that II was feared that this
one would not measure up TO the am
bitions OF its promoters. but such was
not the case. The appeal has been
met by the people OF the Canon City
district In n generous manner. and

how much clothing has been donated
in the campaign is not known. but
from looking into the windows of the
Red Cross overseas storage room at

something like half ton or more OF

Although the Constitution of the
United States forbids the natulariza-
tion OF alien enemies. II Is believed
that under certain circumstances peo-
pie of German birth can now be given
citizenship in the United States. but
IL is probable that few courts IN the
country would be willing to assume
the responsibility OF granting such
privilege TO them at this time. Tech
nically the United States is still at
war with Germany. and former sub
tects of that country are still ciassed
as alien enemies
Whether the fact that there Is no
longer q German emperor. or Ger
man government that has received the
official recognition of other nations
for people of German birth to owe al
'egiance, changes or mitigAtes the
status OF former subjects of the
kaiser. is a matter for the courts to
determine.

Red Cross Has
Great Problems

The last number of the A. r. C..
Rays, the official publication of the
Mountain division of the Red Cross,
has the following to say in relation to
that organization which The Daily
Record has been requested to publish.
Confronted on all sides with de
mands for its services and GLARS
that far exceed the demands made
during the war, the American Red
Cross today faces the crucial test Of
its career.
Moe than 100000 Yanks are still
under arms. The Red Cross must
look after their manifold needs, here
as vel as overseas.
"The families of the men still in
service are in greater need of assist
ance than at any time since the begin
ming of the war.
Fifteen commissions, with a per-
sonnel of more than 5000. are operat
ing in Is different countries, as against
two or three countries during the war.
"In spite of the mighty demands
that are being made upon the re-
sources of the Red Cross ihe organiza-
ton faces the handicap OF $4,000, 900
in unpaid pledges. Only by a strenu-
GUS effort on the part of the chapters
of the country can this big sum be
collected and put to use for which IL

While good progress is being made in
rehabilitation the rate at which the

first responsibility to be with it's

 The government does not deliver goods either. and the local merchant could. besides going on cash basis, also eliminate the delivery service, the same as the government. and demand cash and the carry system.
 There are always two sides to every question.
 .Ngain. ,he government is not going to do the same kind of business that the local merchant is doing.
 The government k not going to sell you 25 cents worth of sugar when yGu want i,; the government iS not going to sell you small box of pepper, d package of salt. in fact the govern mcut k not going into the parcel sell ing hut will sell only in bulk.
 The government iS not doing a gen cral merchandising business but only selling certain commodities, in case lots. etc.
 If everybody should attcm tI trade from the government, the mcr. chant would he justified in closing his store. then where would the general public he at?
 It iS wise to think of bath sides, and to think seriously for there are many angles to consider to tEc question.
 One knows that talk iS cheap. Mary are saying this and that about th profits made by the local merchants. There may be and there may not b. some cause. Stop talking and get dowN to huSineSS- the fair price cOmmitte ' k a legal organization with fedcr authority and can sift all matters tO the bottom and make q report and if there has been any crim;nai prOriteer- ing. the committee will find it out.
 There are charges of this and that floating around Seward then make good and place the matters before the fair rrice committee and stop chewing the rag. All have chance to make their charges good. hut the charges must he backed up by evidence. not hy word of mouth. or by ''i am told this or "So and so says this" It is direc, evidence that is wanted and the fail price committee wants it, nothing more.

at & o'clock, for the purpose of hear no complaints as to local prices which cirizeni may care to make and also to acquire such information as the pub lie may have in it's possession which hears upon the subject in hand.
 All complaints should be accom- panied by evidence in the shape of re . ceiptcd bills, etc.
 The appointing of this and similar committees all over the country marks the first step in sincere effort of the government to lower the high cost or living. The local committees came: send in full and authentic report "f local conditions without the coopera- ton of all citizens.
 Therefore it is the public duty of each one to submit such evidence as they have in order that any local evils, f they exist. may be corrected.
 Information is desired on prices charged in Seward during the past yea on all necessary commodities such as food, fuel and clothing.

 The idea og purchasing from -" government ir the states and having thc comii ,ht;cS shipped to Seward K all right in one sense of the word, but thc local merchants should rec i've some consideration.

 The local merchant k the one who helps to build up the cit, and the local merchants are ready now to show that they are not getting rich on their sales aS perhaps it k the wholesaler who k doing the hold-up.
 The government extends neither credit nor aid when the individual wants it, that must he remembered.
