attempt to influence a union elec-
ton"
The election Is the runoff for the
presidency of the union to be held
May 80. In that ballot, Mr.. Man.
beck is opposed by Stuart Kelly, a
mOnotype operator at the Govern
ment Printing Office.
Mr.. Manbeck's protest was over
the distribution among the l,80C
GPO members of the union of a
letter from Senator Hayden, Demo
crat, of Arizona, chairman of the
Joint Committee on Printing.
The letter, addressed to Mr.
Giegengack, said that "the deter

cent wage increase at the Govern
ment Printing Office were the find
ings of the negotiating committee
and the Public Printer-not prior
commitments made by any one to
any one"

ator Hayden did commit himself in
letter to the president of Columbia
Typographical Union, No. 101, writ
ten in May, 1914, in exchange for
support to aid that Senator in his
reelection in Arizona, after the
Arizona typographical unions had
adopted resolutions opposing Sem
ator Hayden. Senator Hayden did
state that he would approve a pay
raise for the GPO printers and that
basic wage increase was approved
by Senator Hayden and his COM
mittee on August 13, 1914"

adults and Girl Scouts. here and
all over the country, will share in
building the nationwide Plan of
Work, and this plan, once it has
been completed and adopted, will
in turn be used as a basis for
formulating the plan of work for
each council"
1T is believed that this is the
first time that national mem
bership organization comprised
principally of children has ever
undertaken complete compre-
hensive poll Of its members as
an aid to determining its course
Of action.

of work will be Active Citizen
ship because nothing seems more
important to us than good citizen
ship in winning the war and pro-
tecting the peace"

planned by Mrs. Webb as:
knowing your community and
what it needs 10 make it happy
community. Knowing something
about the people who live in it
and doing what you can to help
them to be active citizens.
believing in the value of doing
ones duty to God, to the country
and to all mankind. Believing in
the right of all citizens to share
in the privileges and responsible
ties of the community. the country
and the world.
belonging to a community by
working with other people for the
welfare of the community.
Doing the things one has to do
in order to be the kind Of person
who makes the most valuable
kind of active citizen in home,
community, country and world
Girl Scouts in the troops are
asked, in helping formulate the ma
tion-wide plan of work, to . list at
least four things they have done
during the past year that have
helped them to become more ac-
tive citizens. They also are asked
to list two or three things which
they, as individuals and as men,
bers of the troop, want to 90 in
the immediate future to become
more active citizens. Last, the
troop members are asked to list
two or three things which they
think Girl Scouts all over the coun-
try could do in the next two years
to promote active citizenship.
Adult members of the organiza-
ton - leaders, committee mem
bers, council members and men,
bers of regional and national COM
mittees-also have been asked to
assist in the preparation of the
nationwide plan which will pro-
vide the direction and emphasis
