FOR MILLION
DOLLARS FOR SHOPMEN

NEW YORK, Dec. Tn the
face of an appeal by Bert M.
Jewell, president of the Railway
Employees Department of the
American Federation Of Labor for
the collection Of $1,000,000 every
two weeks to take care of the
shop workers still on strike, rail
roads in the vicinity of New York
reported that their shop forces
We're normal.
Conditions are normal" said a
railway official. 1--WE have not
bothered to keep statistics for
some time. The roads have too
many men,"
At the Labor Bureau, Inc,
which handled the publicity work
of the men during the strike, it
was said today that about half of
the striking shopmen still were out
of work. This is borne out by
JEWELS appeal for contributions
to strike fund. He claims that
tn emen are required by the by
laws of the organization to make
the strike payments which in this
case come to S. per man for each
week pay period.
The funds are to be used to aid
the men still on strike and to pro-
vide food and shelter for their
families. AS the workers now re-
turn to their posts, according to
Nh Jewell, the semi-monthly fund
of S1,O00,000 will be increased
through their contributions. In
the circular asking for funds the
national leader declares that the
strike aided the miners in the set

About 1870 Of the railroads were
reported to have signed the social
ed "Baltimroc agreement" which
broke the strike.

THE CHRISTMAS SEALS

One of the fine civic enterprises
that has done world of good in
this country, has been the sale of
Christmas seals to finance the
campaign against the scoulge of
tuberculosis.
This disease is a menace to the
rublc all over the country. Seem
irgly healthy people may get the
gems fastened upon them. The
presence of incipient cases is a per-
il to everybody, and selfish
reasons alone should induce people
to take hold and promote the cam
palgn against this plague.
This disease is one Of the great
causes of suffering among the
loor People in congestcd home
and city slums are specially liable
t. it because their dwellings are
poorly ventilated. They get this
infection as result of unhealthy
conditions, and their working
power is destroyed and they be-
come a charge upon the commun-
ity.
The anti-tuberculosis work is
specially fine project, because so
much of it is preventive 1t seeks
to remove the causes of this con
taqion. 1t educates the school
children in those ways Of health
that minimize the danger. 1t
takes incipient cases and restores
them to health, and enables them
to return to their families and re-
sumo their work. An enormous
amount of suffering and sorrow is
aNerted by these efforts.

little seals has been an ingenious
one, but it is one that requires a
