BUREAU OF MINES STARTING NATIONAL
 MOVEMENT FOR RESCUE WORK TRAINING

discuss methods of increasing safety, good sanitation, and maintenance of health. The local chapters will also serve as recreational centers, and are expected to provide the place and oc- casion for numerous interesting events of social and welfare nature. The constitution to be drafted for the gov ernment of local chapters will restrict their activities to safety and recrea- tional lines. Inspectors will visit the local chapters from time to time for the purpose of reviewing the work of the chapters and stimulating enthus- iasm for hte safety cause.
 Approximately 50,000 m in S throughout the United States have been given thorough training in first aid and mine-rescue work by the Bureau of Mines; and frequently local and unattached safety societies have been organized in mining towns fol- lowing the training. With no practi- cal means of following up the work, however, the enthusiasm of those trained would naturally slacken with the passing of time. It was felt that there was real need of a well-organ- ized national association which might keep alive the interest aroused by the training work of the bureau, and it was considered that the Joseph A. Holmes Safety Association was best fitted for the effort. In addition to the host of miners trained within the past eleven years by the Bureau of Mines, there are in the various min ing communities more than eighty independent and unattached safety societies which are understood to be anxious to merge with the larger body.
 The Association will be supported by the payment of dues of two gen eral classes. Chapters of less than a hundred members will pay $500 a year, while those having more than a hundred members will pay $10.00. Individual membership in the associa- tion will be at the rate of dollar per annum. A membership button of attractive pictorial design, suggestive both the occupation of mining and the influence of Dr. Joseph A. Holmes, will be provided.
 The Joseph A. Holmes Safety As sociation was organized six years ago with the idea that, through its eff forts along safety lines, it would serve to keep alive the memory .of the hon. ored disciple of mine-safety princi- ples whose name it bears. The Asso- citation will continue to bestow honor medals and diplomas upon those who have performed especially notable
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1921-03-18

Plans for the bringing together of the thousands of miners trained in first aid and mine-rescue work by the Bureau of Mines into local safety chapters which would form component units of national parent organization the Joseph A. Holmes Safety Associa- tion, were developed at meeting ot the Association just held in Washing ton, D. c. At the same time this legion of expert savers of life and limb, the only organization of it's kind in the world, will serve as living, stirring, deed-doing memorial to Dr. Joseph A. Holmes, first director of the Bureau of Mines, and popularizer of that pulse-quickening slogan, Safety First"
 Present at the meeting were repre- sentatives of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engi- neers, the American Mining Cngress, the United Mine Workers of America, the American Federation of Labor, the American Society of Mechanical En- gineers, the Mine Inspectors lnsti- ute, the American Chemical Society, the National Academy of Sciences, the American Ceramic Society, the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Ed ucatin, and the United States Bureau of Mines. The President of the Joseph A. Holmes Safety Association was directed to appoint a chairman, and the Presidents of the National Safety Council, the American Mining Congress, the National Coal Associa- tion, and the United Mine Workers of America, and the Director of the Director of the Bureau of Mines were requested to appoint members of a committee of six to prepare detailed plans for the organization and conduct of the work of the safety chapters of the Association, supervise the organ ization and conduct of the work of the safety chapters, and safeguard against duplication of the mine-safety work of any organizations at present working in that field.
 It is the hope of the promoters that the various local safety chapters in the mining communities of the coun- try will constitute the means of bring ing together the miner and the mine officials as common workers in the great acuse of making safer the op- eration of the 35,00O mines, quarries and smelters in which a million men do their daily toll. It is proposed that the local chapters shall encourage their members to take first-aid train ing, exp pound at all times and in all places the gospel of Safety First, and hold meetings at regular intervals to

NEWS FROM HEADQUARTERS
 OF THE AMERICAN LEGION

What F. w. Galbraith, jr., national commander of the American Legion, proclaims will be the greatest national patriotic demonstration held in this country since the signing of the Ar mistice will be held at Madison Square Garden, in New York, on March IS. It will be called the "All American Meeting for God and Country" and is designed as the answer of all patrio- tic citizens to the pro-German Won Mach propaganda meeting held in Madison Square two weeks ago.
 A score of organizations are coop erating under the leadership of the Legion, and Colonel Galbraith, who will be the principal speaker, has been deluged by letters and telegrams from veteran public officials and citizens from virtually every state sending greetings to the meeting, applauding the stand of the Legion in it's present exposure of revival of German prop aganda efforts in America.
 From the number of cities where pro-German meetings have been scheduled comes the word that coun- ter demonstrations by patriotic citi- zens will be organized at the first moment the propagandists come out in the open with their plans. Many of the communications are from citizens of foreign birth, including loyal Amer jeans of German extraction.
 Among the organizations cooperat- ing with the Legion in the arrange ments for the New York meeting are: United Spanish War Veterans, Vet erans of Foreign Wars, Military Or feats of heroism in rescue work at
