Red Cross Aids the Soldiers

thousand, nine nunureu anu
ninety-four men who served IN
the armed forces of the United
States during the World War
have been aided in their fight to
get back to normal life in the
past six months by chapters OF
the Southern Division of the
American Red Cross. During
the same period 81, ,28O disabled
soldiers, still in the service,.
largely men who are recovering
in government hospitals, have
been helped through the same
agency. These figures were
given out by the Southern Divi-
sion Headquarters for the first
half year Of it's operations.
In a great percentage Of these
cases, it was this work Of the
Red Cross, which permitted the.
veteran or the member of his
family to receive the monetary
compensation that the govern.
ment is glad to give.
When the peace time program
for the year was outlined by Of
ficials of the Red Cross, it was.
determined to make soldier re-
lief work the paramount idea OF
the organization. This was de-
cided on for a two-fold reason.
The Red Cross is chartered to
serve during periods of great
national stress or local disaster.
The war had ended but the re-
suits of the war were still with
the nation. The Red Cross com
ceived that it owed the same or
a higher duty to the eX-service
man, who was struggling against
the handicaps Of shell-torn body,
gas eaten lungs, and artillery
wrecked brain in his battle to
meet conditions of a practical
world, that it gave SO efficiently
when that same man was wear
ing his uniform and fighting his
country's fight.
Again the Red Cross realized
that with the natural reaction
from our conditions, the soldier
and his cause must suffer unless
some great humanizing agency
took particular and sedulous care
that this didn't happen.
This work was carried on in
the widest possible scope. No
soldier problem was too small;
nor were there any too large.
The Red Cross was always will
ing to help in obtaining com
pensation, vocational training,
hospital treatment, maintaining
| family ties while the veteran
was recovering his usefulness,
making the dullroutine of hospi-
tai life endurable. finding en-
ployment. providing the human
touch everywhere.
And when the program fol-
the new year is outlined, soldier
work will again be of paramount
Importance. The number Of dis
abled men in government hos.
pitals is growing instead Of dim.
finishing with the renewed &C.
tivity Of the veterans bureau.
Social work among the men who
served the nation becomes more
limperatively necessary every
month.
This year 100000 was
Ispent by the Red Cross in soldier
relief. Next year the appro
Ipriation for this work will, q
necessity, be larger Oh thai

Headquarters are expecting anC

rules which are urged upon all stud

The undernourished child is also en-

useful here. No mother likes to sit

The People and the Coal Strike

The events of three days have made it practically
certain that the Mine Workers have the power to
wage successful strike against the proposed reduction
of in the southern Colorado coal mines. All that
they do is to proong the struggle without benefit to
any and cost that be paid in large
by the working miners and in greater measure by
the general public.
The union leaders cannot have supposed at
any recent time that they had any chance of
winning this strike. The decision of the Colorado
industrial commission conclusive upon the
four points that employer and employees had right to
agree upon reduction Of wages that they had agreed
upon such reduction; that the old wage scale
cessvey high and that reduction in tho price of coal
following reduction of wages would be matter of great
general benefit
1t possible that the union leaders felt that it
necessary for them to to the length Of ordering
strike matter of formal protest. in view of the state
ments previously made by them. But that the pro-
test has been made it should not be prolonged The loyal
union miners suffering with others result OF the
enforced idlencss Pueblo chimneys smokeless and
Pueblo wage idle when they should be busy
The of the extraordinary for the main
of law and order in the strike district is falling
upon the people of the state who already overburd
cned with the costs of government.
The union leaders cannot gain anything for them

Slandering the Red Cross

It unbelievable that any one in Pueblo after
This cs experience Of Red Cross work in flood relief
should magn that organization any of its workers.
Yet it il fact that there people in Pueblo who
have refused pay dollar for Red Cross membership
and have attempted justify that refusal by state
that is either utterly false utterly malicious.
Nearly a half million dollars has been spent by the
Red Cross in Pueblo for flood relief and rehabilitation
All the expenses of the work including salaries have been
paid Of another fund and not from relief money The
work been done by trained and experienced workers
been Investigated thoroly and in all doubtful
sultation has been had with local committee composed
of Pueblo citizens of the highest standing.
In single point the work Of tho Red Cross has left
the door open criticism Busy with their work
and knowing their sincerity and suffciency the Red
Cross workers have not always been awake to the i'm
portance of keeping the public informed to what they
were doing. For time it difficult to get nforma-
ton about flood relief and many persons had the i'm
preston that the Cross working effectively
or that there something that being concealed.
Outside of that thing there is ground for
reasonable criticism. There is abundant ground for
praise. The history of flood relief in Pueblo is Red
Cross triumph of the first order
The response of Pueblo people to the Red Cross roll
call should be the part of every person who
can spare the one dollar for annual membership.

Power From On High
Frederick A. Hatch

Conditions being as they are, what is the
duty and privilege of every Christian? These
conditions cannot be resolved or changed by mere
argument. The motives of the hearts of men
who are responsible for them must be changed.
1t is impossible to believe that our Father wants
things to be in turmoil and chaos. HIS Son SAID
il two of you shall agree" "it shall be
done for them by my Father who is in heaven"
Now comes the great test of believing children;
do we so have confidence that what our Father
does in answer to prayer, will be the best
possible7 Then let us pray in such faith, for
prayer without such faith is as nothing. This IS
personal message to believing prayers. VIII
YOU not agree with God and with few others in
YOUR neighborhood that you will begin to pray
that the present distrust and hate; the present
racial, national and political ambitions that set at
naught the needs of other races and nations; the
present industrial strife and selfish purposes oper
ating in business and the present unconcern on
the part of processing Christians, may be changed.
In Pueblo there may be fifty groups of two to
dozen believers, and in other towns up and down
the valley, a lesser number, who will agree to pray
daily that these conditions may be overturned, and
the devil who loves strife and hates peace, may be
utterly defeated Groups who will together pray
that the iealouses in churches, the pride of creed
that takes the place of humility in Christ, may be
overcome the greed for power, whether it be only
to rule church or club, may give way to un-
selfish desire to serve others for His sake
Let us pray for such objects not because if they
are changed we will be easier in our minds, but
because the spirit Of Him who died for men must
take possession of the world if it is to be place
worth living in. Our praying must mean much to
us before it can much to Him who made
that wonderful promise quoted above. We join
ourselves to God in such alliances Of prayer.
How many such prayers are there in this reg
ion? How many who will take on their hearts
the burden He has on His?
L shall be glad to hear from any who are led to
respond to this invitation A circle Of praying is
no tiny power; it represents not the poverty but
the wealth of power from above, and just be-
cause it is so we are to be extremely careful that
we imbibe none of the "holier than thou" spirit.
