Want Texas Soldiers

Austin, Textile fact that Sur

for an appropriation of sS0,O0O,00O to

no way lessons the task of the Be-
nevolent War Risk Society of Texas"

Goddard, state health officer, Thurs
day, in speaking of the work of the
society.
''The prime factor" continued Dr.
Goddard, 'in the organization and
chartering of this society, with the re-
sulting campaign for funds, is the fact
that Texans want Texas soldiers treat
ed in Texas. This was determined af-
ter survey of the state had revealed
the fact that there were approximately
1000 discharged service men afflicted
with tuberculosis, which survey also
showed that there was available bed
space in hospitals Of. Texas for only
about fifty of these men"

AMERICAN LABOR
TO DO FULL DUTY
Samuel Gompers Pledges Its
Aid in Working Out the
Country's Problems.

Washington-Sam GompeTS pres
ident of the American Federation of
Labor, in a New Year statement
pledged American workers to do their
full share in working out the coun-
try's problems in 1920. Mr.. Gompers
said
Americas workers stand ready in
the new year, as in the past, to do
their full duty as American citizens.
We have always placed our obllga-
tons as citizens above all else. AS
citizens we are true to the American
idea of equal opportunity for all,
"In the past we have found it nee
essary to fight for that idea against
agencies that sought to establish spe
cial privilege Those fights have not
been in defense of class advantages,
but to assure wage earners the rights
and opportunities that all should pos
sess. Our struggles may have brought
discomfort to others, but they prevent
ed a greater evil-deterioration OF the
viriity of part of the nation.
"The great struggle of labor in the
past has been to assure to workers in
their industrial relations the rights of
free citizens. We have fought to give
the ideal of America dominating influ-
ence in shops and factories. Our mill
tant struggle has won general recog-
milton for our demands. But our work
is not all militant We are in posi-
ton to contribute to the Improvement
of production, processes and organiza-
ton.
The immediate problem of the
world is to develop production Or
ganization that will benefit directly
those. who are the real producers and
will also serve the needs of starving
nations.
This is a big job, but it is essential
for well-grounded development in the
years to come 1t is essential to that
ideal which is America-equal oppor-
tunity for all Americas workers will
do their full share in working out all
our country's problems.
Hail to the new year 1920. May
it bring freedom, glory and happiness
to all our people!"

WHEN KIDNEYS
ACT TOO OFTEN

If bothered with that form of kidney
trouble which causes too frequent or Excess
sive passage of urine, don't expect relief
from medicines that are intended for COM
mon kidney complaint. These remedies
generally are intended to increase kidney
action.
Liquid Shu Make should always be used
where the kidneys are over active during
the day or a. night. 1t is not cure for
all forms of kidney trouble, but is in
tended for over-activity of the kidneys of
both children and adults alike, especially
for children bothered with kidney action
at night.

or enclose sixty cents to the Shumake
Remedy Company, Fort Worth, Texas, for

MOBILIZE TO FIGHT
THE RED DOCTRINE
Official Government Attitude
Is Outlined by the At
torney General.

Washington-Offi government
attitude toward the bolshevist move
ment in Russia was declared Wednes-
day in a statement to the public issued
by A. Mitchell Palmer attorney gen.
eral
In a formal statement the attorney
general calls upon the country to mo-
bilize its strength to combat the in
roads of bolshevism and to meet the
red terror.
A severe indictment is made OF the
doctrine itself. The attorney general
says it does not represent the 'radi-
calism of progress" but is distinct
" criminal and dishonest movement
and is movement against democ-
racy and in favor of the power OF the
few built by force"
Mr. Palmer suggests that one OF the
New Years resolutions made should
be to study and understand this move
ment and to combat it through the
press the church, the schools, patri-
otto organizations and labor unions.
Mr.. Palmer describes the history of
the movement in Russia, and points
out what it means. THE dictatorship
of the proletariat," he says, has de-
generated into a military dictatorship
of subsidized and corrupt portion of
the proletariat."

OUTLOOK FOR 1920
LOOKS VERY BRIGHT
Conditions Of Trade Summed
Up By Department of
Commerce Official.

WASHINGTON. Alexander
of the department of commerce sums
up the commercial outlook for the
year 1920 as follows:
THE closing year witnesses a fabu-
lous growth of American foreign COM
merce far beyond the dreams of bust
ness five years ago Our trade bal
ance for the year 1919 will be approx
mately 100000, 900. A great fleet of
merchant ships, new industries, new
sources of supply and increased knowl-
edge of our own resources are some of
the assets gained from our war expert
ence with which we are fortified to
meet new conditions.
Before the war we were engaged
for the most part in the development
of our own business, with little serious
thought of extension of our activities
into world markets, and we were too
Indifferent as regards our position of
inferiority on the high seas. Today
we are awake as never before. The
pride of ante-bellum days is revived
and we look to see our flag at the
masthead of an American merchant
ship in every important seaport of the
world, carrying American goods wher-
ever markets may be found
1T is too much to expect that nor
NAL conditions, for which we all are
SO impatient, should come within the
IA months since the signing of the
armistice. The wonder is that the sit
uation is not more unsettled. Existing
conditions are not unlike those follow
ing other wars, only the problems are
Of greater proportions and more COM
pick. Our domestic situation is not
free from difficulty. Let us hope that
in the year 1920 there will be less So
cial unrest, that production will in
crease and living costs be gradually
reduced, and that by intelligent CO.
operation and unselfish regard for the
public welfare our national prosperity
may continue"
