Ottawa ULNS).-Canada is finding.
with the United States and Great Brl-
tain, that drafting of too many skilled
workers for the armed forces impairS
essential war production and services.
Confronted by labor shortages on the
railroads, the Canadian Government
has ordered employment of drafted
men of the lower medical categ0rieS ON
railway development and maintenance.
Home defense soldiers below Il GER
tain medical grade may be required
10 perform such work and all orders
given them in connection with its per
formance shall be lawful orders by Il
superior officer. the order says
The men thus remain under military
law and discipline. They will be en-
titled to military pension in case of
sickness or injury suffered during their
work.
The order authorizes the Ministers
of Defense and Labor to make imam
cial arrangements relating to the
charges to be made for their services
The men Will remain on army pay ana
allowances. but ut the end of their
service they will be paid amy excess
amount to them if the amount of

|AFI Unions Set Record
In National Fund Drive

over 1912 AFL leaders in Elizabeth
are confident that at least $4,000 will
be added to that total before the close
of the drive.
Indicative of the warm interest
which Iabors new relief activity has
aroused in the community, is a report
from Alabama, where the Sheffield
Community Chest. serving the three
TNA cities, Florence, Tuscamba and
Sheffield. has voted to include labor'S
own war relief projects in Britain,
China, and Russia among the bene-
ficiaries of the campaign. Among local
welfare projects now being considered
by this Chest is the establishment of
day nursery for the children of war
workers which is part of the home
front program of the AFL.
In some Western communities they
are using a new slOgan for the
Labor League campaign" commented
Mr.. Blue.tein. Instead of asking that
you give till it hurts they are getting
at the true meaning and significance of
the campaign by asking AFL members
to Give Till 1t Helps And the siX-and-
a-half million members of the AFL
are proving. with facts and figures,
that this is their slogan, that they
know the needs and urgencieS of the
cause for which We are working. and
that they are doing their utmost to
help"

The National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis during the 1913 epidemic of
that disease, Basil O'Connor, President
of the Foundation, has just announced.
This epidemic-the worst in twelve
.years-Struck particularly hard at con
gested production centerS. But the Ma
tional Foundation and its network of
local Chapters blanieting the entire
country had laid plans for just such an
emergency, so that the best medical
care was swiftly given to every victim
needing it.
1T is striking tribute to our demo
cratic way of life and the National
Founda ton - solely owned and main
tanned by the people-that the dimes
and dollars given by millions of Amer
leans were thus poured swiftly back
into air for the stricken. especially
those who are helping fight for the
nations life" Mr.. O'Connor stated.
Labor'S contribution alone to the
1343 Fund-Raising Appeal would have
been hopelessly inadequate to provide
for the families of the workers had it
not been for the generosity of people
in all other walks of life, Mr.. O'Connor
said.
Although many people may not
realize it since the 1913 epidemic has
subsidized, that outbreak of the disease
still places Il great burden upon the
National Foundation because many OF
those stricken will be patients in 1914
thereafter. This means that an even
greater sum must be raised during the
1914 Fund-Raising Appeal, which oc-

ourselves, which is the greatest evil
of all.
We also appreciate the effort the
Herald and labor loving people are
making to combat the proposed sales

disappointed in the replies that we had
from our representatives in Washing
