Rehm, a foreman at the fac- tory, testified last Tuesday noon Sowa threw stones at the factory and repeated the offense yesterday noon.

F.,, July 26 -—Mid- summer heralding the approach of cold weather, finds the colony of Newfoundland wrestling seriously with the problem of food supply and control for the coming winter.

New York, July 26.—The Red Cross committee on co-operation will treat separately with each of the independ- ent war relief organizations for col- lecting and forwarding supplies to Europe according to an announce- ment today because of the inability™ of the federal council of the allied war relief charities to reach an agree- ment with the international society, This announcement was made by Judge Lovett, chairman of the Red Cross committee, who added that in less than six weeks all avenues of distribution of relief through the, American clearing house at Parls would be closed to all organizations except the Red Cross. Judge Lovett explained that be- cause of the lack of transportation facilities abroad the Paris agency had been forced to limit the distribution in this way and could not accept spe- cial small shipments for interor hos- pitals in France at any special mo-* ment after September 1. Judge Lovett further explained that the Red Cross was not attempting to establish a “charity monopoly” but called atten- tion to the fact that there was liable to be a great demand for cargo space and that those who could not com- mand it, or pay for it, might experi- ence considerable difficulty in con- tinuing their work.
