PUBLICITY METHODS
NOT SATISFACTORY

The democratic organization has spent
money on publicity In large amounts.
But it is admitted that it has not to-
day arrived at a method where the
money has produced any results satisfac-
tory to the party.
There is an absolute lack Of cohesion
among the democratic editors of In
diana. There is no central source Of in
formation, no clearing house for opin-
ions, no conference machinery through
which the democratic editors could be
brought together and no disposition on
their part to conduct an editorial cam
paign in CONJUNCTION with each other.
At the meeting of the Democratic Ed
torial association last summer a spe-
ci1l committee was appointed by the
main body for the purpose Of taking
cOgnizance Of this condition and work
ing out a plan for editorial cooperation
in the interests of the democratic party
This committee never held a meeting,
never considered the subject and is not
today ready to report to the editorial
meeting which will be held in Indian
apolis Friday.
In fact, there is no place on the pro-
gram Of the democratic editors for a
discussion of this subject The program
of the banquet Thursday night does not
include an address by a single Indiana
editor. The business session for Fri
day will be held according to a program
that does not contemplate any effort to
bring the editors into working organi.
zation.
This policy of ignoring the publicity
situation in Indiana is attributed by

POSSIBLE REMEDY IN
WIDESPREAD EFFORT.

Investigation of the situation reveals
that only by the use of all the demo
cratic dailies in the state, combined with
all the Independent dailies, can the dem
ocratic party reach as many voters in
the state as the republicans can reach by
the use of their acknowledged party
papers alone.
A history of the newspaper field in the
state reveals what appears to be a de
Iberate and well-directed movement on
the part of republican political leaders
to invest money in newspaper property
with the intention of obtaining control
of the preponderance of editorial scntt-
ment in the state
The disclosure of the ownership of the
indianapolis News by Charles w Fair
banks, a lifelong republican was only
the start of the trail through the state.
4 northern Indiana newspaper was re
Gently reorganized following the death of
its democratic editor. In the reorgani-
zation it was disclosed that a republican
politician held a large part of its stock.
Another democratic paper not far away
was found to be owned by the same in
terests that own the republican paper in
the city. Since these disclosures still!

newspaper in that city.

Of the largest democratic papers in In
diana passed into the control of a re-
publican who had previously consolidated
a democratic paper with a republican
paper which he owned in another city.
Steadily and apparently with but one
purpose, the republican leaders of In
diana have been either buying into dem
ocratic newspapers corporations or con-
solidating democratic papers with repub
lican papers until the lead of the re-
publican party in the matter Of news
paper control has reached a point where
1t is double that Of the democratic con
troll.
This enormous advantage to the re-
publican party has not yet been coun-
tered by any democratic movement In
fact, 1t is admitted freely at democratic
state headquarters that the publicity
problems Of the party have been neg
lected and are now in a deplorable CON
dition.

by the National Tuberculosis Associa-
ton. made public yesterday by the New
York. branch association. or this

one-tenth of the entire cases In the

Three general types of fake cures
have been classified by the association.
One consists of all sorts OF remedies In
plasters, inhalers, patented stoves and
other devices Another group of worth
less remedies is made up of the So
called scientific cures. mostly of Euro

scriptions of well-meaning persons. such
as dogs blood. onions. certain exer-
cises and the like.
Good food fresh air. rest and proper
medical supervision constitute the only
effective cure known to science at the

RED CROSS HEAD DENIES
REFUSAL TO AID ERIN
Organization Always Willing
to Extend Relief.

In order to make clear to all who may
contribute to the present roll call OF the
Red Cross the position OF the organiza-
ton In the case Of disaster or great
suffering anywhere, and especially to
answer the statement Of n labor organi-
zation that has refused TO contribute on
the ground that tho Red Cross is doing
nothing for Ireland, III. ID. Burrell, di-
rector OF the roll call for Manhattan.
says:
The charge that the Red Cross has
refused 70 send workers to Ireland is
absolutely false. The American Red
Cross is willing at any time 10 extend
such aid as may be possible for the re-
lief of the suffering, but we cannot go
into "A foreign country without re-
quest either from the authorities or the
Red Cross Of the country in question.
THE American Red Cross Is now
awaiting the report Of its European
commissioner on the need of special Red
Cross relief In Ireland. Irish women and
Irish nurses are mem bers of the British
led Cross and are on duty in Ireland
co-day. The regular practice Of the
American Red Cross would be to await
an appeal from Ireland before acting.
Famine or other great disaster there
nlaking immediate shipment of supplies
Necessary would call for prompt and
special action by the Ameridln Red
Cross"
