Moline Lodges

Moline Spanish War veterans are
soon to have a record book SINH
lar to one now in possession of the
Civil war veterans, and the camp
urges all Spanish war veterans,
whether they be members of the
camp or not, to make out a record of
their services during the Spanish
war and send it to the camp.
The camp wants the name of the
company and regiment in which the
veteran served, the length OF time
he was in service and, in fact, all
information pertaining to what he
did for his country.
One of the main reasons for max
ing this record book, is due to the
fact that many of the widows of the
veterans in later years may not
be able to recall the name of the
regiment and company in which
their husbands served, in order to
receive the pensions due to them.
All Spanish war veterans are ask
ed to comply with the wishes of the
camp and furnish their immediate
relatives also with sufficient data
on their war record.
John H. Wood has been chosen
by the camp to take charge of the
record book and will be assisted
by John Holt, who for many years
has kept the record book for Ora
ham post.
The camp held regular meeting
last evening and Mr.. Holt was taken
in as a member, as was also Fred
William Sorenson, who served in
the naval militia during the war.
The camp decided to hold only
one meeting during the months of
July and August, and the next meet
ing will fall on Aug. 10. Columbia
auxiliary will have their next meet
ing on the same date.

dressed Congress as follows:
Members of the Congress: You have
been called into extraordinary session
to give your consideration to national
problems far too pressing to be long
neglected.
We face our task of legislation and
administration amid conditions as diff
ficuIt as our government has ever con-
templated.
Under our political system the peo-
pie of the United States have charged
the new Congress and the new admin
istration with the solution-the read
justment, reconstruction and restora-
ton which must follow in the wake of
war
1t may be regretted that we We're
so lily prepared for wars aftermath,
SO little made ready to return to the
ways of peace, but we are not to be
discouraged. Indeed, we must be the
more firmly resolved to undertake our
work with high hope, and invite every
factor in our citizenship to join in the
effort to find our normal, onward way
again.
The American people have appraised
the situation and with that tolerance
and patience which go with under
standing they will give to us the in
fluence of deliberate public opinion
which ultimately becomes the edict of
any popular government. They are
measuring some of the stern necessi-
ties and will join in the give-and-take
which is so essential to firm re-estab-
lishment.
First In mind must be the solution
OF our problems at home, even though
some phases Of them are inseparably
linked with our foreign relations. The
surest procedure IN every government
