meetings will be called on every Tues
day during the drive.
"Four-minute" speeches will be de-
livered by the local express heads or
specially selected subordinates, and
better service campaign committees
will be appointed in the local express
organization in every city, composed
OF men from each of the several
operating branches. In this way, the
objects sought will be outlined TO the
vehicle men, the platform men, the
Office and claim bureau employees, the
messengers in the cars and the agents
at smaller points.
A determined effort will be made
during the campaign to eradicate
what is known as the mo Mark" evil.
From July to November 80 of last
year, 127, ,859 shipments. an average
of about $500 a month, were turned
over TO the 'No Mark" bureaus main
tanned by the company. because all
means of Identification OF either ship
pers or eonsignees had been lost, and
their delivery, except in a few cases
made impossible. Personal baggage
hardware and automobile tires COM
prise the largest proportion of the
'sno mark" shipments, which are at
tributed largely to the failure of ship
pers to mark celarly and TO pack their
goods substantially. With the help
of the shippers and through the inf1u-
ence of the campaign, the express
company hopes to solve this problem
Many "no mark" shipments lose
their Individual character because the
single tag upon which a shipper de.
pends to carry his package to desti.
nation, is torn off, The use of tags
at all is discouraged by the express.
man, but where it is absolutely neces.
sary, shippers are urged never to use
less than two. With personal bag.
gage sent by express, it is wise to en-
close the name and address of the
shipper, In case further Identification
Is necessary.
| Another cause of damage to or los.
of shipments in transit is the use o.
poor quality of wrapping paper anC
| twine, or an insufficient quantity o.
good paper. Old or second hand car
tons and other containers, which dt
rot stand up or carry several olC
marks, are found to be responsible,
for many shipments being damaged

wrongly delivered or going astray.
Old marks on baggage have sent
many trunks and suitcases to the
wrong destination.
A special effort will be made TO
secure the help of business executives
and managers of large concerns in
all trades and industries, in the belief
that the proper preparation Of express
shipments is a matter of Importance
to every successful business. They
will be asked to give the subject per-
sonal attention and to look into their
shipping departments, to see that the
best methods of packing and marking
consignments are followed.
The Better Service Campaign
viii be conducted for the purpose of
bringing about a betterment of the
express service, in the interest of the
people who depend upon it or use ii
occasionally. But it's success depends
largely upon the response and CO.
operation of the shippers themselves
in the opinion of the officials of the
express company directing the drive
and there are many Indications that
this help, on the part OF the public
will be forthcoming.
"Start Express Shipments Right!'
is slogan which viii be carried
throughout the country by posters or
express wagons, placards In windows
and by pamphlets and other forms o1
printed matter.

sion of the peace conference to be
held this afternoon may mark the
conclusion of the first and possibly

i0us governments are acting on the
peace conference is expected to pre-
pare mass of material which will
come before the society. The peace
conference is expected to adjourn

tion is for the moment in abeyance.
The Italian premier, Vittorio Orlando,
has seen President Wilson and in
formed him that after consulting his

agreed il would be impossible to take
a decision on the arbitration which
the Jugo-Slays presented to the peace
conference, asking President Wilson
to be the arbitrator, without consult
ing the king and cabinet, and, il nec-
essary, parliament. President Wilson
explained that he was not the origi-
nator Of the proposal, and preferred
not to be loaded with the responsible
ity to arbitrate, but was willing to
act as friendly intermediary in al
effort to reach a settlement satisfac-
tory to both sides.
