OFFICIAL NE WS B ULLETIN BY THE PRESS COMMITTEE OF INDIANA FEDERATED CLUBS
War Tlctory Commission. Th?. State Council of Dtfensn has rCuestcd th Fourteen llinute Women to rak at the next mating of every club hi Indiana. The work is under the direction of the chairman of speakers. Mrs. Julia C. Henderson of IniliAnspolis. Th State Council of Defense urges that the funds be collected with all possible jpped for tho War Victory Commission is th netl for Fuiuugh Houses is trgent. i'rs. Henderson, in hr appeal says: ''The Indiana Federation of Clubs is an fflTiatf". body with the Women's Section of the State Council of Defense Bad both as an orgn nization and as Individual!, is standing back of it and h'-iping the council in nvfry way. This humane work they are undertaking Is f ar work, and is nation wide, each state t'Hvms its part to do in the enterprise. Indiana must not fall behind other s;ats, but must, keep up its enviable recTd." The campaign will extend from Octoher 29 to November 8. However, the women of Indiana are not waiting until the campaign begins to go to work. Mrs. Felix McAhirter of Indianapolis has received checks from many clubs and individuals. The War Victory Commission is working under the orders of the War Department through the chairman on recreational activities, Raymond D. Fo--rii-k. General Pershing directs that all work be under the supervision of tha T. M. C. A. Dr. John R. Mu'l of the T. M. C. A. has written to the federation: 'While in France I had opportunity to study the need and opportunities for serving the younj men of the American Expeditionary Forces at the various ports of debarkation, in the training camps, in the reserve camps of the Rrens of combat and in the front lines. The ministry performed by the Young Men Christian Association is simply wonderful. It is placing at the disposal cf the owners and enlisted mn of our army and navy all that is best in American life Its homes, its school, its library, its club, its stage, its church. "Amontr thousands of workers who
ire makinp possible this service on be
half of our joung men in the midst of their strain and loneliness, I saw nonii who are doing so much tfood, and whose practical and unselfish, activities were so much appreciated by both officers and men as the hundreds of American women serving in connection with the Young Men's Christian Association. Xor have I ever at home or abroad seen bands of women who were experiencing deeper soul satisfaction in their work. They are, however, fearfully understaffed. Their number nhould be increased four-fold in the immediate future. This is one of the principal burdens with which I have returned. "They should be women of social gifts and graces, of established Christian character, of sound health, cnpable of enduring constant strain. They should believe with all their soul ii the cause of the United States and her allies. They should possess quiet undiscouragable enthusiasm and above all should have the capacity of bringing cheer and comfort to men in the face of tho great realities involved in devotion even unto death to a great cause" It will be seen that by working under
jthe direction of the Y. M. C. A. there will be no duplication of workers. The

V. M. C. A., for our soldiers cannot return to America for months. Europe will reed our help in the reconstruction period as well as now. Our boys rHave asked for American women. It is a pleasure and duty to respond to every call that General Pershing deems necessary. There is not a mother in America who would not go to her boy if she could, but the War Department has ruled otherwise, so we must send those women whom the War Department will accept for overseas service. Candidates between the ages of 30 and 3 years are desirable, and under no circumstances will any one under 25 years be considered. Candidates must be in perfect health, and must pass a prescribed physical examination. The government will not grant a passport to
any woman under 15 years of age, nor any woman whose husband, son1 or father is in the y. M. C. A. or Ked Cross service overseas. A knowledge of French is very helpful, but not necessary. All candidates are asked to volunteer for
one year. To show the appreciation of the service of American women let me quote from a letter received this week from Private Charles Edwin Jordan of Princeton. Ind., who Is in St. Xaraire, France: "We are vve'l quartered here in barracks, and got plenty of eats, and besides the Y. M. C. A. has recently opened a cafeteria, which is already a popular place. There we can get chicken, pie. doughnuts, and 'everything cooked ALMOST l.ke mother used to cook them.' All praise to those women from America who have come over here in the service of tha T. 31. C. A. and are doing such fine things for all the fellows o'er here. St. Xazaire does not offer many attractions, so most of our time off duty ia spent in the Y. These women of America help us to feel more at home." An ActlT District CThj.ircnn. Mrs. A. J. Dillon of Rochester, chairman of the Thirteenth' district, has written a personal letter to every club In her district, explaining the War Victory Commission and asking the women to work wth haste. She has also written to every club of the postponement of the state convention for one month, and asked that credential cards be returned where delegates are not to be sent to the convention. The Thirteenth, district is making a strong race for the gavel. Mrs. Dillon says: "Our Rochester Woman's Club went over the to; and Is 100 per cent efficient in the AVar
Victory drive. There was not a murmur from a single woman. The Saturday club of Plymouth is over and Jjiporte county is busy. St. Joseph county has not yet reported but I kuow it will do its part." Three Hewr Clubs. The Equal Fratichb o Eeague of Hammond with scventy-ftve members is the latest club to enter tiie federation. Miss Alice Hessls president and Mrs. Thomas Meara is secretary. The Woman's Civic Hureau of Indianapolis with 100 members and the Mothers" Club of Mucy with 23 members have just federated. Mrr. Frank J. Lahr and Mrs. W. II. Blodge.lt are officers of tha Civic Bureau while Mrs. Mary A. Peters and !rs. W. A. Farrar are officers of the Mothers' Club.

Time Ft real'. At State Capital. INDIANAPOLIS. IND.. Oct. 25 Government agents will keep their eyes on the election, November 5. in Indiana to ee that the recent act of the congress relative to corrupt practices In the election of United States senators and congressmen is not violated, according to an announcement made here by L. Ert Slack. United States district attorney for Indiana. In connection with this announcement, political observers regard it as
interesting that Donn 31. Roberts, former mayor of Terre Haute, who was sentenced to serve six years at Leavenworth for his rart in the Terre Haute election conspiracy cases in 1913. has been paroled. The Terre Haute election cases were the forerunner of a number of prosecutions by the federal government against perpetrators of election frauds. And the activities of the ffovtrnmerit along this line finally resulted in the enactment of a specific statute covering such frauds as were committed in Terre Haute. "In view of the near approach of a general election and in order that the public may be informed." Mr. Slack fcnid. "I wish to call attention to the provision of the recent act of congress r lath e to corrupt practices in the election of senators and representatives to congress." The pro-'ision of the statute referred to is that the influencing f a voter by the usa of money or anything else of value or the acceptance of money in consideration of a vote for or agalnsi congressional candidates constitutes p violation of the law and subjects tho guilty of a f ne of not more than 1.000 or imprisoned not more than one year or both. "In. connection with this matter." continued Mr. Slack, "I have requested that governmental agents at once tahe up investigation concerning any effort
to use money in violation of this statute or the gathering of campaign funds to be used in violation of this statute. Tho agents are also requested to investigate the matter of alien enemies registerinK for the purpose of voting at. the coming general ejection in vialation of the laws of the state of Indiana. I am making this public statement in order that tho general public may be fully advised,"

New cases of influenza are on the rapid decline, according to the health
board of East Chicago. Old cases, however, are just, as malignant as ever. The influenza vaccine is being administered to the employes of the various plants just as fast as plant physicians and other physicians can do the work. I'r. Tef gurden of the local board of health telephoned to Indianapolis state board of health to send up rive physicians but word came this morning that every physician in the state was having his hands lull in taking care of local cases. The Fast Chicago and Indiana Harbor physicians are being assisted by Dr. Holmes of the U. S. Public Health Servile and by his assistants, Drs. Metcalf and Shie.
