The planning and purchasing for all this work is no small task but it | is carried on by an untiring commit- tee and the foregoing list of complet- ed work proves that the women of New Britain are enlisted in large numbers in support of the work. The Red Cross has to be kept up by continued effort and many hours of hard work and-it is upon the shoulders of the women of the nation that the larger share of the burden falls for it is the women who working constantly on the never enil- ing hospital supplies. It is woman's work needed to bind up the nation’s wounds and to care for him who shall have borne the battle and fallen like _the boy in the story: “It took him just as he went up over the trench parapet—took him full in his bare and muscular throat.

Holmes, superintendent of schools in this city. The members of the State Council of Defense feel that because of his admirable work along educa- tional lines, in which he has come into direct contact with the alien’ classes, Mr. Holmes is suited for the position. Committees of a sinfilar nature re- cently created in New York and Rhode Island are doing good work and the weekly organ of the State Council of Defense has the following to say: “Georgia, New Hampshire, New York and Rhode Island have planned or undertaken a census of aliens, and in all of these states with the ex- ception of Georgia a law has been passed providing for the campulsory registration of aliens. In New York this registration was part of a gen- eral compulsory registration of citi- zens and aliens alike. The registra- tion of aliens by the individual states seems an undesirable expense and complication and the imposition of an unnecessary burden upon aliens. Con- siderable activity of unquestionable value has been conducted in these states in regard to aliens. In Rhode Island the citizenship committee of the state council has set itself the task of improving the facilities for natur- alization in the state. The naturaliza- tion laws and regulations were exam- ined and conference held with the various Jjustices of the Rhode Island courts and with the clerks of the Unit- ed States and state courts. By this means it has been made possible that first papers may be taken out in all countes where clerks have offices, and that aliens may be naturalized in all places where the judges go on circuit In additfon to this work the commit- tee has distributed widely a pamphlet of ‘Information for Immigrants’ pub- lished in many languages by the Na- tional Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, and a pamphlet entitled ‘Questions and Answers for Coming Citizens' prepared for the Providence Y. M. C. A. The commit- tee also drafted two short circulars, one entitled ‘Rhode Island Citizens’ and one ‘Non-Citizens in Rhode Island’ for general distribution. An investi- gation relating to the aid whch large employers of labor may give to in- crease the naturalization of the for- eign born population has been under- taken by the Rhode Island Council, and a report on the subject is being prepared. Speakers have been en- rolled to go in times of stress and excitement to the various centers of foreign born population to quiet and reassure theso people by addresses in their own language. “In New York the Division of Aliens has developed an exceedingly effective organization. Directly un- lder the division are the following committees: Information, research legal advice, field service among aliens, registration, industrial re- sources, agricultural resources, ad- justments, and Americanization. Sub- ordinate to the division there is a sub- committee on aliens in most of the countjes of the state. It is planned to establish such a committee in each county, including alien members when possible; to have local commit- tees under the county committee wherever there are communities con- taining a large percentage of aliens; and to have industrial correspondents representing the Division'of Aliens appointed in each large industrial or- ganization by the organization itself.

When { regular infantry at Laredo, Texas, at their patriotic feeling was running at high tide they obeyed the impulse of the inner man and enlisted. Their names are Albert Buell and Roy B\{ell and they are the sons of Roy Buell of Chestnut street Albert, aged , is a member of the naval reserve, having enlisted May 10, 19117, s called out for service recently. now stationed at New Haven. He attended New Britain Grammar school, New Rritain High school and in 1916 graduated from the Connecticut agricultural college. For a while he was employed by the Nor- walk Chamber of Commerce as an agricultural expert, later accepting a position as head of the McClure farm at Brookfield. Incidentally, he has taken the examinations for the second officers training camp. It is to be the duty of these indus- trial correspondents to keep in touch with the aliens and know where they are and what they are doing; to di- rect their. activity and to discover, report and prevent destructive meas- ures on the part of enemy aliens; to make suggestions for the stabilizing of the labor supply; to render whatever service is possible in finding employ- ihent for aliens in the locality and in adjusting difficulties between the aliens and their employers; to re- port from time to time to the Divi- sion of Aliens and to bring to its at- tention any matters of importanc and finally, to distribute information among the aliens as to naturalization and their relation to the United States. In addition to this organiza- tion the Division of Aliens contem- plates instituting information offices in each county, conducting a cam- paign for increased naturalization, and for recruiting on the part of men who have taken out their first papers. To stimulate and assist all this ac- tivity, a service bulletin of the Di- vision of Aliens giving information as to the activities of ali committees and the present alien problems has been printed and widely distributed.” Buy an Indiana truck.—advt. Roy, the younger brother, aged 19, { enlisted April 1, 1917, at Fort Slocum, N. Y., and was assigned to the 37th which plage he is now stationed. He was the only member of the new re- cruits to qualify as a marksman. This in itself is quite an honor. Before he offered his services to the miltary he was connected with the Philips Grain Co. of Ansonia. Many blanks returned tell a similar story to the one above. Returns show that from one to four members of one family have joined the colors. Is it any more than fair that a list be compiled of those who are going and of those who have gone away? If you have a son or kinsman or know someone who has enlisted in any branch of the service, fill out the above blank and return it to the Edi- tor of the Herald. “Do it now.” EVENTS TONIGHT i + High class photo drama, Fox’s the- ater.
