The most disastrous fire in recent
years was the burning of the Mer-
chants Bank building, December, 1919.
Eight families were made homeless
and all their personal belongings de-
stroyed by this fire.
Moved by their distress some we'll
meaning folks started to raise fund of
$1,000 for the relief of the fire victims.
Solicitation was started and the fund
probably would have been raised.
But the Red Cross stepped in and
said, in effect:
This is our job and we have the
funds for it. There's no need to solicit
more; these sufferers will be provided
everything they need
Then the Red Cross got on the job
Every stricken family was housed and
cared for until permanent quarters
could be obtained. Food was provided
and clothing destroyed in the fire was
replaced.
Besides these immediate necessities
the Red Cross provided tools and
equipment which enabled the men to
resume work, and in addition replaced
four sets of artificial teeth which were
destroyed in the fire. Here's an indi-
cation of how thorough-going Red
Cross relief is when the emergency
arises.
And such is Red Cross efficiency,

MARION. Ohio. Aug. 30.-Senator
Warren G. Harding will leave his
shady porch here, starting about Oc-
tobcr I. for a number of speeches
during the closing four weeks of the
campaign.
1t was learned today that plans are
nearing completion for a series of en-
gagements which will take the Sem
ator to various parts of the country
during October. Nearly all the en-
gagements are tentative, but it has
been settled that he will speak in
New York. Chicago. and indianapolis.
The New York date probably will be
October 16 or 90.
Whether the Senator will pakc a
trip to the Pacific Coast has not been
definitely decided, although IT Is re-
garded as probable that he will go at
least as far west as Denver.
1t is not the intention OF the Hard
ing managers to undertake anything
smacking of a Transforming cam

posed to speechmaking from the rear
end OF a train, and the customary
short talks in various cities through
which the candidate would pass. II

ment at time, returning to the
Marion front porch, after each trip.
Senator Harding will leave Marion
on a special train the night OF Sep

NEW YORK. Aug. 30.-Seven shots
we're nred In the air by Brooklyn po-
lice ody TO frighten of riotins
street car strikers OF the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit system, who rushed an
auto. bus containing nifty strikebreak-
ers brought from New Jersey. No
one was wounded. Brooklyn surface,
elevated, and subway traffic practi-
caly was paralyzed this morning by
the employees strike.
One hundred surface car employees
got word that strike breakers wer-
on their way from New Jersey, and
endeavored to prevent the first bus
load from entering the Halsey street
car depot
Strikebreakers who arrived during
Saturday night were qusrtered at the
car barns, strikers declared. This
was given as the chief reason why
the night shift of b. r. It. workers
decided upon the strike at 8 a. m
yesterday.
1900 MEN OUT.
About $4,000 employees are affected
by the strike. The Brooklyn Rapid
Transit system planned to concentrate
toward providing some sort of ele-
waited and subway service with / 900
strikebreakers. One of the company
officials said the entire system would
be running by Wednesday. though
not normally. with a full complement
of strikebreakers.
Many temporary bus routes were
put into operat ion today but most Of
Brooklyn was forced to walk.
The b. r. T. employees demand.
roughly. 40 per cent increases in
wages and an agreement by the
operating company to stand by re-
| n

receiving 81 to 62 cents an hour.
want S4 to 81 cents; shopmen want a
fiat increase OF 33 1-3 per cent. con-
ductors and guards on elevated and
subway lines, who now receive 40 TO
81 cents an hour. want 20 to 30 cents.
The company insists the men are
striking for a closed shop. The en-
ployes deny this.
Meanwhile Mayor Hylan of New
York issued statements charging that
the strike was welcomed by the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company. as
a lever in a renewed fight for higher
fares. b. r. T. officials pointed out
that even If increased wages wers
awarded by an arbitration board.
there would be no guarantee that tbs
company could pay 1t, from its pres
ent revenue.

Roosevelt at it's head. Although
much publicity material about Amer
lean trade lines to these countries
has been sent out by the Shipping
Board the British are satisfied with
the actual failure to do anything
which would effectively challenge the
hold Great Britain got on these
markets during the war.
1t was impossible to learn yester-
day how many persons are actively
employed by the various British
agencies in this city which are circu-
lating propaganda in favor OF Cox
and Roosevelt. Some time ago. when
II was suggested that these employees
form an association, their number
was given as 5000. They are all
vociferous poponents OF the League
OF Nations and urgent in their de-
nunciation OF the "provincialism and
Ignorance" of the advocates OF the
traditional American policy of non
interference in foreign AFFAIRS.
ENGLISH LABOR REBELLIoUs.
One of these men demanded yester-
day:
where Is the League of Nations
going to get it's soldiers and muni-
tions to stop the Bolshevik nonsense
and bring the Germans to respect the
treaty? France and Italy are all shot
to pieces. II we tried to get an army
from them for enforcing the terms of
the treaty, there would be anarchy in
those countries.
1--WE have borne the burden long
enough. Our labor element is getting
restless and IL we started what was
necessary we would have a lot of
strikes. You are rich and you hard
ly suffered from the war at all. We
thought you had sympathy with the
Arme mans and other Eastern Euro
pean peoples and you could supply
the troops without any of the dis
turbances we would have to face.
The attitude of the Republicans
shocked us greatly. or course, we
expect Cox to win. 1t has always
been your history that you returned
to power any party that had fought
successful war, and we expect history
to repeat itself this year."

The policy OF the Wilson State De-

tage since the signing Of the armi-
stice. While British goods have been
poured into Norway, Sweden, Den,
mark, Holland, Esthonia, Letvia,
Courland and other Baltic states. II
is still almost as hard to get Ameri-
can goods into these countries, an
exporter said yesterday, as II was
in the days when the British navy
was holding up all ships and taking
them into Krkwall for a search OF
their cargoes.
