The BADGE OF HONOR.

There come times in the history of the
Americfn Red Cross when everything
is out go-that is, lavish expenditure Of
funds is made for the relief Of distress
Of many kinds such as hunger, loss of
homes, replacement of clothing and
household effects and working nipple
nentS lost through fire, food, hurricane
End tne like.
Naturally such lavish expenditures
could not he continued indefinitely un-
Jess there. were periods of replacement
Of funds; times when the Red Cross
treasury is refIled a ter being emptied
for the relief of the distressed. in order
that it may meet the next demand-a
demand that may come without a mo-
sment's warning in any Of the American
possessions or in any part of the world,
for the heart of the Red Cross is as
big as the world and its helping hand
stretches far and w~ithholds not.
One of these times of repleHishing the
Red Cross treasury is with US of st.
CroiX right now. The 1926 Roll is now
being called and it behoOves every one of
us to do our little part, It say to the
Red Cross we are mere again to do our
bit in order that you may do your great
work of relief when the mex great emer-
,oncy arises. For it stands to reason
lat preparedness is the keynote Of Red
Gross activity. 1t cannot wait to gather
up resources after the emergency has
arisen. 1t must be ready beforehand to
spend with generous hand the resources
already in the treasury.
SO, now, let US respond quickly to the
present call of the Roll and let US with
hold not cur little mite or our more Iiber-
al icontribution, both of which are so ne.
&c sary to the continued work Of the
great Mother of the World.

NEW YORK DRYS WIN

In statement issued by S. z. Mich
olson chairman of the Independent Re-
publican Committee of New York, the
declaration is made that in no instance
where prohibition and law enforcement
were direct issues in the New York pri-
mary was there wet victory. Mr. Mich
olson says the claim that former Con-
gresham Clark who won the nomina-
ton against Congressman Tolley in the
Binghamton district is wet has no foun-
dation whatever, newspaper reports to the
contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Clark
answered all questions OF the drys salts
factorily and he had large and COM
manding support among dry voters. The
Christman committee made no choice as
between the two men.

Operates Risk Line

The International Brotherhood of Elec-
trical Workers claims the distinction of
being the first body of organized labor
to launch and successfully operate a reg
uar old line insurance company. The
Union Cooperative Insurance associa-
ton was incorporated under the laws of
the District of Columbia in 1924, the re-
suit of resolution presented at the sew
enteenth convention of the electrical
workers held in Montreal in 1923. The
entire issue of stock, 100000 capital and
100000 surplus, is owned by local I'M
ions and individual members of the cleo
trical workers organization. 30
To date the association has written ap-
proximately $40,000,000 worth of bust
ness for electrical workers, their fami-
lies and members of other labor organi-
cations. Their reserve fund amounts to
$1,500,000, and claims paid to beneh-
Charles to date amount to 100000.
And yet the Chicago Tribune continues
to raise its voice for beer and wine on be-

SAYS TRIBUNE UNFAIR

The Og1e County CID Reporter in an
editorial severely criticising the Chicago
Tribune for its unpatriotic stand on the
enforcement of the prohibition law, de-
clares that perhaps more serious offense
of the Tribune is its tendency to use mis-
leading headlines over news items pertain
ing to prohibition. The Reporter de-
clares that in one issue no less than eight
distinct news articles were captioned i'll
the Chicago Tribune display heads, "a1l of
which apparently were written with the
design of rejecting adversely upon the op-
Grafton of laws contemplated to sustain

AN APOLOGY

In the last number of The
American Issue appeared an arti-
Gle under two-colunn head en-
titled, In the Hallowed Name of
Booze" 1t was as sarcastic piece
of writing as has appeared in an
American publication in years. The
American Issue apologies because
inadvertently the article was not
credited, as it should have been, to
The Ladies Home Journal. II was
a part of an editorial which ap-
peared in that publication. We are
sorry that through error the credit
was withheld.
