Some days more spectacular happe-

the Red Cross has done, but is doing
at present.
Peace Time Program.
Peace time work of the Red Cross
involves many things. The peace
time program of the organization has
always been to have preparations
made for the quick relied action in
time of disasters.
The Red Cross also aids in promot-
ing public health measures.
The Red Cross must finish the work
it started in Europe.
There is reconstruction work to be
carried on there in Russia in the CEN
trail empires and in France.
The only time all Red Cross mem
bers can have an actual share in work
day after day is when great quantities
of supplies are needed and many work
ers enrolled. But the Red Cross work
of supplying dressings, clothing, COM
forts, etc.. was only one phase OF the
war work
Work is still going on in Russia,
central empires, reconstruction work
in France
War work is still going on in Keo-
kuk under the home service section

OFFICIALS UNFAIR ID JAPS IN PROBE,
 MISSIONARY CLAIMS
CRepubIIcan A. p. Leased WireI

SEATTLE, Wash. July Exchanges by the Rev. U. G. Murphy, a mission ary, that public officials of Washing ton had been unfair to the Japanese in their investigations of the Oriental question, and a plea by United States Representative John J. Miller of Seattle for new laws restricting the entry of Japanese in the United States were features of testimony before the house committee on immigration and natu- raIization at it's final hearing here today.
 Representative Miller declared that restrictions of immigration would operate not only for the good of the American people but for the good of the Japanese as well.
 Dr. Murphy said he was opposed to unrestricted immigration, but declared discussion of the subject had unfairly stressed the number of Japanese enter ing the country without taking cog nizance of the number returning to Japan. He charged that the commit tees statistics. showing there are 150,- 900 Japanese in America, most of them in Pacific coast states, were inaccur- ate. Chairman Johnson retorted that the committee had the Japanese asso- ciation's figures which indicated there were S5,000 Japanese in California, about 25,000 in Washington and pos- sibIy 5000 in Oregon.
 Dr. Murphy defended what is known as the Gulick plan of percentage inn migration. He said the Japanese pie ture brides as rule were of a higher order of intelligence than the men they married.

WASHINGTON. July 2s.-Funds for financing the Democratic national campaign will be received in any amounts and party leaders will be concerned only with the sources from which the money comes, George White. the new national chairman. announced today in paying his first visit to the party's national headquarters.

 Party heads will scrutinize carefully all campaign gifts so that mo obliga- tion will be 'entailed on the candidate, ' Mir. White asserted, adding that any plans to restrict the amounts of gifts would be useless since such could be easily circumvented.
 The new national chairman declared that Governor Cox had become the new head of the Democratic party.
 With respect to interpretations placed on the recent conference ar the white house between President Wilson and Governor Cox on the league or nations issue. MT. White said there were no "ironclad contracts entered into and there was certain amount of elasticity in the state ments.''

NEW RAILROAD IN
 NORTHERN ARIZONA
 PLANNED, REPORT
[RepubIIcan A. p. Leased wlrel


 FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.. July 2s.-Fri- days Northern Arizona Leader will contain an article relative to a new 5000. 900 railroad project, to run from Flagstaff or Winslow into the country north and east of Flagstaff.
 The road is to be built principally for the purpose of tapping the rich coal and iron fields of northeastern Ari- zona, southeastern Utah, northwestern New Mexico and southwestern Colo rado. It is proposed to have the new road cross the Grand Canyon at Lees Ferry, and if this is done it will give Flagstaff and Arizona in general direct railroad connection with Salt Lake City
 The proposed road would touch Du- rango, Colo, Pennington, N. M, and other Colorado, New Mexico and Utah points, as well as going through north eastern Arizona towns now far away from a railroad
 w. F. Lake, said to represent Los Angeles capital, was in conference in Flagstaff two days this week with To- cal capitalists in regard to the pro- posed road. MT. Lake said that Los Angeles long had been known as the playground of America" and that it now is proposed to make 1t the leading manufacturing city west of St. Louis, and to this end, he said, it will be nec- essary to build the proposed road so that the coal and iron needed for man ufacturing purposes can have an outlet.

rRepublican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Means of averting winter coal shortage and of defeating profiteering in the coal trade will be discussed at a conference in New York Monday by representatives of four government departments and a committee from the coal industry. Act ing Attorney General Amas tonight said the government hoped to develop a program on which the coal interests could come half way" in solving the problem.
 Mir Ames. who with Attorney Gen. eral Palmer will direct the formation of the plan, declared there was no req son for a scarcity of fuel now and that if g. shortage existed it was through faulty distribution. He added that there were mo economic reasons" for the high coal prices which obtain throughout the country.
 Wage questions probably also will come up for discussion, since Secretary of Labor Wilson is understood to have recommended a reopening of the wage award in prepared report on the coal situation in general and strike condi- tions in the Illinois and Indiana fields in particular, submitted today to Presi- dent Wilson.

 WASHINGTON, July 29.-Chief Jus tiee Mccoy of the District of Columbia supreme court today dismissed the pc tition for mandamus to compel Secre tary of State Colby to promulgate the congressional peace resolution vetoed by President Wilson and declare the United States at peace with Germany and Austria. Harry $. Mccartney, an attorney of Chicago, who filed the peti- tion, noted an appeal to the district court of appeals and also announced his intention of seeking a writ of certiorari from the United States SUI preme court to transfer the case to that tribunal without waiting for the action of the district appellate tri- bunal
 Waiving the point of absence of for mai demand, as pointed out by the court. government attorneys called the attention of the court to the section of the revised statutes of the United States in which is set forth the power of the secretary of state over the laws as passed by congress. The attorneys asserted that the secretary may de- clare, as laws, only such acts of con gress as had received the approval of the president or had been sent to the secretary by the president of the sen- ate or the speaker of the house, de- pending on which body was the last to pass the act over the veto.
 As the peace resolution, after being vetoed by President Wilson, failed of re-enactment in the house, the govern ment contended the peace resolution never reached MT. Colby and a man damus to compel him to promulgate something which he has never received would be vain and useless.

AMERICA WANTS TO KNOW FACTS ABOUT
 FOREIGN O|L FACTS
Republican A. p. Leased wirel


 WASHINGTIN, July 29.-An official statement by the state department to- day disclosed that representations have been made to the British government regarding it's policy touching the ex- ploitation of oil fields and the distribu- tion of oil from mandate countries. The subject had been discussed informally between the department and Sir Auck-- land GeddeS, British ambassador here. and the American embassy in London also is believed to have been gathering information on the subject.
 The exchanges on the oil questions are understood to have begun to take on more formal character than a month ago and a note was addressed to the British government which was not ia any sense a protest, but was rathe rintended to develop the inten- tions of the British in regard to the oil fields of Mesopotamia and perhaps some of the Balkan countries. A good deal of confusion exists in official cir cles here as to the nature of agree ments reported to have been made be- tween Great Britain and France and perhaps other entente countries re- garding the distribution of oil. Infor- nation is being sought particularly by this government as to pre-war agree ments and the extent of governmental control over the oil fields as diStin- guished from undertakings arranged by private oil interests which occupy a different status from an international standpoint
 Assertions have been made and talk en notice of by the state department that the arrangements now being made for the distribution of oil between the allied countries are in line with the plans formed by the economic confer ence, an outgrowth of the peace con ference in Paris from which the United States xuh f ha senate withheld it's approval of the peace treaty
