DESTITUTE MINERS
BENEFIT STARTED
1000 Sacks of Flour Sought
for Needy in Coal
Fields.

Almost destitute miners and their
families will be provided for if success
crowns the efforts OF Washington
woman to raise the price Of 1000 sacks
of -four.
NDs. Todd c. Sharp. past president
of Ladies Auxiliary, No. 13, of Typo
graphical Local 101. began the drive
after receiving an appeal from William
Rogers. chairman of relief committee
OF the United Mine Workers sof Ameri-
ca, In Fairmont, w. Va, who reported
many miners there were out of work
and unable to care for their families.
/ A committee of 25 women and S men
has been organized by Mrs. Sharp TO
solicit funds. She said slightly less
than $1,000 would be needed to obtain
the 1000 bags She added a wholesale
house had agreed to furnish the car
and had granted other favors because
of the charitable nature of the enter
prise.
Sacks to BE Tagged.
Each contributor will be asked to
sign a tag. Each sack of -four will
bear a tag when delivered so the re-
cipients may know the identity of their
benefactors.
Although the primary purpose OF the
committee will be to collect funds for
flour, gifts OF Old clothes also will be
accepted. Committee Headquarters have
been established in Mrs. Sharp's home
at ll9 street southeast.
The situation is at such a critical
point" Rogers wrote, that our people
are not only hungry, but they are
suffering from want of food. With the
Winter months practically here, no
work for our idle men and no money to
clothe and feed them, the situation
looks anything but bright. Never in
the history of our organization have
we been so completely helpless to assist
our idle members.
Deaths Are Feared.
I'VE are practically certain that I'M
less we can make some kind of arrange
ments we will have not only suffering
but deaths from exposure and lack of
food during the coming Winter"
Mrs. Sharps committee is composed
of Mrs. William Aldrich, Miss Dorothy
Aldrich. Mrs. Rose BenZler. Mrs. May
Bachman, Mrs. Robert Brogge, Mrs.
Bertha Custer, Mrs. John DriScoll Mrs.

The plan provides that the govern

exclusively selling drafts abroad and
cashing such foreign paper, thus taking
exchanges and drafts entirely out of
the hands Of banks and other private

argue that, as the government controls
