Immense Crowd Yells "NO! MOI"
When Asked by Wilson If
They Had Forgotten Desire to
End Autocracy and Guaranty
Liberty

Tacoma, Wash, Sept. 13.-Reading
to Tacoma audience today a part of
his address to congress asking dec
laration of war with Germany, Presi-
dent Wilson declared the purpose there
outlined was not yet fulfilled and
would not be until the treaty was
ratified.
Pointing out that he had asked in
that address for a coYlplete freedom
from autocracy and guaranty for lib
erty everywhere, he said that was the
program which had been adopted
without respect to parties and which
1t now was proposed to abandon in
some quarters. When he asked wheth-
er the people wanted it abandoned
there were shouts of mol, mol" and
cheers from the crowd. 1t was the
first of two addresses to be delivered
by the president in Washington dur
ing the day. night meeting being
scheduled at Seattle.
Before he went to the armory the
president was driven to the stadium
where cheering mass of humanity
including many school children well
coined him. With seating capacity
of 10000 the stadium was packed ex-
cept for small spaces at the end of
the horseshoe and thousands more
thronged the steps and terraces above.
In a brief address at.the stadium
Mr.. Wilson said he was grateful that
the children had come out to see him
because he felt the decision being
made now affected the children more
than those Of the present generations.
There was continual roar of cheering
after he finished his speech and until
his party had circled out of the sta
dium on the way to the armory.
At the armory, which was packed,
Mr.: Wilson was introduced by N. B.
Coffman, president of the Washington
state branch of the league to enforce
peace.
Giving the cost of the war on both
sides at 1856 billions and the cost to
the United States at $1,O00,OOO an
hour for two years, he said that was
the cost in money of saving civiliza-
tion.. In addition, he continued, there
were 7,45O,200 battle deaths. These
were terrible facts" he declared. and
he had come out to the people to see
whether they had forgotten them.
"The country has not forgotten" he
added. "And it will never permit any
man who stands in the way of the full
filment of our pledges to forget the
sorrowful day when he made the at
tempt"
President Wilson arrived in Tacoma
at 8 o'clock this morning.

Warns Against Use
of Alcohol for Bath
or Drinking Purpose

Cincinnati, O., Sept. l3.-Internal
Revenue Collector Gilligan has re.
ceived a communication from the com.
missioner at Washington advising that
reports received there establish the
fact that completely denatured alcohol
is being used extensively for bathing
and rubbing purposes. Such use OF
completely denatured alcohol Is highly
injurious to the skin and animal
tissues, 1t is stated.
It also has been established, 1t is
said, the denatured alcohol is being
sold in some instances by dealers
under circumstances that assure them
IL is being used for beverage purposes
Where 1t is used for any length OF
time blindness inevitably ensues, and
the continued use can only result in
death, according to the Commissioner.

The Pas, Man, Sept. 13-The gold
rush to the Copper Lake region failed,

wild region.
Jacob Cook, an Indian prospector
from the Hudson Bay country, made
the first strike. Dispatches assert
that his find was pay streak Of four
inches wide in 6-foot vein of quartz.
Copper Lake is east of Lake Atha-

of the sulphide mines. 1t is about
go miles due north from here but
prospectors are obliged to travel $50
miles by water to get there. There

rude buildings are springing up and
that scenes which took place during
the Klondike and California gold rush

Miami Fla, Sept. 13.-Many hours
before the storm which sank the Ward
liner Corydon in the Bahamas channel
Tuesday with a loss of q lives a
vulture followed the ship and perched
on her spars while members of panic
stricken crew believing in the super

that they were doomed.
Such is the story brought here by
eight of the crew who were SO hours

All day Sunday as the ship pursued

the great bird hovered overhead.
Sunday night and Monday the Cory

Monday night every member of the
crew was engaged in a desperate bat

NEW CHANGES IN
LAW FOR AIDING
DISABLED YANKS
Mrs. Poole of Red Cross An
nOunces Latest Improvement
to Help Soldiers

Important changes have been made
on the vocational rehabilitation act
and Mrs. T. H. Poole, secretary of the
home service bureau Of the Red Cross
is ready to furnish former service
men who are entitled to benefits under
this act with all information they de-
SIRE. a. '
Some of the important changes in
the act are ..
l. Benefits of the Vocational Re-
habilitation Act are. extended to, men
who were discharged in disabled con-
dition between April 7th, 1917 and
October 6, 1917.
2. Men with major vocational handi-
caps will be given first considera-
tion in being placed in training. Men
with minor handicaps will be given
training later Men with minor dis
abilities which may be removed by
treatment will not be eligible to train
ing.
8. All cases in which the disabilities
are of a minor nature will be given
training under Section 8 of the Vo-
cational Rehabilitation Act. This Sec
tion provides training after compensa-
ton is awarded. Tuition and books
will be given free but no subsistence
will be paid by the Federal Board.
The men will, however, get their reg
ular compensation and family allow
ance payments.
4. Vocational advisors will no longer
be sent out through the Division to
interview applicants for training. The
Federal Board will summon them to
it's Minneapolis office for interviews
and pay their transportation and sub
sistence.
5. A man with a major vocational
handicap may be put in training by
the Federal Board without waiting
for the award Of compensation.
6. The Federal Board will enter a
man in training as soon as it mas been
decided that his injury or disease con-
stitutes a vocational handicap, and
that he is physically fit to undergo
training 1t is no longer necessary to
await the approval Of the HeadQuar-
ters office in Washington.
7. An allowance of $50 month for
men without dependents and $1OO for
men with dependents, plus the allow
ance to the family which was receiv-
ed while the man was in the service,
will be paid during the entire training
period by the Federal Board for Vo-
cational Education. Officers will re-
reive the same amounts. These
amounts are given in paragraph 107
of the Handbook. Compensation and
allowance to dependents will not be
paid by the Bureau Of War Risk In
surance to men who are receiving
Federal Board subsistence during
training but will again be paid by that
Bureau as soon as the man is out OF
training.
It is the responsibility of the Home
Service Sections to understand these
new provisions so that our service
to disabled men may be carried on
Will you please take up with the Di-
vision office any points in the new
procedure which do not seem clear to
you.

FEELING TURNS
AGAINST RULE
OF WAR REGIME

London, Friday, Sept. 13.-The re-
suits of the election OF Widnes Lam
caster in which Arthur Henderson
the labor leader was elected, the
house of commons is considered a
severe blow to the coalition govern
ment and has revived speculation as
to the prospects of another general
election The virtually unanimous
vote of the trades union congress at
Glasgow for the amelioration of mines
and todays vote to withdraw British
troops from Russia are regarded as
evidence of every determined attitude
On the part of labor against the gov
ernment. ...-5
The reconstruction Of cabinet Is
long overdue and has been delayed
only because the ministral changes
would involve an election which 1t is
said would almost certainly provide
additional xevidence that the tide OF
feeling in the country is running
strongly against the government.
