Red Cross Notes
At the end of the first week of the campaign to enroll nurses for active Red Cross service, the ninety-two chapters reporting to the Lake Division indicated that the division has secured 391 graduate nurses, and has secured 204 prospectve students for nurses' training schools. The results by states is as follows: Indiana, 32 chapters reporting 132 enrollments and 55 prospective students; Ohio, 33 chapters reporting 233 enrollments and 86 prospective students; Kentucky, 25 chapters reporting 26 enrollments and 55 prospective students. Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky Red Cross chapters during May gave assistance to 6,199 families of soldiers and sailors, according to the May report of James L. Fieser, division director of Civilian relief. Of thl number there were 1.434 families who received information only.
It is probable that a considerable proportion of the American wounded will be transported from France to
England for treatment. For that rea
son American Red Cross activities in Britain will probably be extended. More than 200 ambulance cars were placed at the disposal of the Italian armies by the American Red Cross within a'few weeks after the United
States had declared war on Austria. Owing to the scarcity of petrol in France and - Belgium, the American Red Cross has been compelled to spend 30,000 francs in installing an electric lighting plant at Chartreuse, which accommodates 1,000 refugees, of which 250 are segregated children.
REGISTERED MEN NAME COMMITTEES
FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind., June 19. Several matters of agricultural importance were acted upon by the New Garden Township Registered Men's club at the last regular meeting. A notice from J. C. Kline, Wayne county agricultural agent, asking that roosters be killed in order to increase egg production, was favorably acted on, and a committee appointed to take charge of the work in the township. ' Committees were also appointed to record all fields of wheat in New Garden township that may produce 30 bushels or more to the acre. These
fields will be insgected by agriculture experts from Purdue university and may be used for seeding purposes next
year. A committee was appointed to record the amount of sugar cane put out this year. If there are 25 acres or more in the township a mill will probably be located here. It was suggested at the mmeeting that farmers, f-specially registered farmers, who have hogs to ship where the number is less than a carload, report to the chairman of the shipping committee. In this way two or three farmers will be brought together in order to make up a full carload of hogs for shipment.
The next meeting of the club will be held on Friday night.
CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., June 19. At a meeting of the Hotel and Restaurant Men's association held here last night, which includes all of the hotel and restaurant men in Cambridge City, Milton, Pershing and Dublin, it was decided to strike beef from the menu cards. This means that no beef at all will be served in hotels or res
taurants in these towns until the food administration has. lifted the ban. Similar action was taken by butchers of these towns at a meeting Monday night, and a resolution adopted declaring that no butchers or retail dealers in any of the four towns would sell any beef. The dealers are permitted to sell 1 pounds per capita per week, but it was decided to carry the matter further than that and entirely eliminate the sale of beef.

declared a "spirit of hostility" to the
administration was manifested
throughout the Republican state con
vention. Continuing he said:
" ihe Republican politicians taunt us with the statement that the war is not 3,000 miles away. We say it Is, and if
we can suppress pro-German sympa
thizers and snipers at home, with the help of God, we will keep it 3,000 miles
away.
"My friends, this is no time to hunt excuses to criticise. Our country is in
distress. Civilization Is in the balance
Humanity Is bleeding at every pore. Portions of the earth have been filled with hunger by kaiserism, and Heaven itself apparently, deafened by the
groans and lamentations of the inno
cent, crushed by oppression. But in the midst of this awful condition,
Wodrow Wilson, unswayed from his
course by 'constructive critics' is look

the movement now under way to en
compass his rebuke at the polls, will in the end encompass the rebuke of
those back of it. The people under-

RUMANIA FORGED TO MAKE PEACE (By Associated Press) AMSTERDAM, June 19. Rumania concluded peace because to resist further would have exhausted the country to the point of destruction, said King Ferdinand in his 6peech from the throne at the re-opening of the Rumanian parliament at Jassy, Monday. The peace treaty was then submitted to the legislature for approval. The king said that Rumania had accepted the peace forced upon her as a necessary condition to her existence. The treaty manifestly imposes painful sacrifices, but the Rumanian people would examine it with the manliness which an exact comprehension of the interests of the state demands. He al
luded with satisfaction to the factj
that the war had brought back the Moldavian land, thrown the Bessara-
blan people into the arms of Rumania and restored friendship with the central powers. Good relations with oth
er countries were still maintained and plans were on foot to resume normal diplomatic intercourse. Queen Marie, who has opposed the peace treaty, did not appear at the opening of parliament and the diplo matic corps was not Invited to attend.

AGAINST DRY U.S.
(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, June 19 Vigorous protest against immediate absolute prohibition was made before the senate agriculture committee today by Bainbridge Colby, member of the shipping board, who declared if beer were taken from the workmen the out put of American ship yards will be reduced 25 per cent. Mr. Colby said he appeared at the request of Chairman Hurly as a representative of the shipping board. Of the pending Jones prohibition amendment to the emergency agricultural bill, he said: "We believe that the effect of this bit of legislation will be to reduce the efficiency of the workers in the shipyards and to check the output of tonnage to a substantial amount." When senators championing prohibition attempted to cross-examine him, Colby declared he was not present to discuss the virtues of prohibition, but was merely expressing the fears of the men who are in touch with the shipbuilding situation. Shipbuilders, he said, see no harm in drinking beer and think it is essential.
