In harmony with a written request from Governor Bamberger, the State Council of Defense has assumed the task of collecting and preserving a record of all persons in service from the State of Utah, and the compilation of information and material relative to Utah's participation in all the war activities. The task of collecting record of the persons in service is one of the larg-est and most important that could possibly be assigned to the State Council of Defense. It Is the feeling of that body that the . persons who have gone into the service are enti-tled to a place in the official records of the State of Utah which will be made permanent for all time. The State Council of Defense plans to use flie County Councils of Defense and community councils in gathering by canvas of the towns a complete list of those in service from the state. It is the experience of other states that the record of local draft boards, and local recruiting offices, will not be sufficiently complete to justify the depending upon these records for a complete list of persons In service It is felt that a canvass of each com-munity will be necessary to obtain a complete service record. The local committees will submit to the State War 'Historian names and addresses of persons in service to-gether with name and address of the nearest of kin. Upon receipt of this information the State War Historian will have mailed to the nearest of kin, a questionnaire which ' will re-quire complete Information relative to person in service. This question-naire will be made the basis of per-manent record. Pictures and letters of persons in the service, and other Interesting facts connected with their service will also be requested by the State War Historian. It is the determination of the State Council of Defense that the service record of Utah will be as complete as any in the nation, and that the future citizens of this state will have avail-able at any time records which will show the participation in the war by citizens of this state and the activi-ties of the state in the present crisis. The War History Work will be un-der the direction of the Secretary of the State Council of Defense, Arch M. Thurman and Mary Gilmer Rankin. The State Office will be very pleased to receive communications and infor-mation from any citizen of Utah, rel-ative to persons in service.. It is the hope of those in charge of this work that the people of Utah will respond at once and send to the office of the State Council of Defense, material which should be made part of the State Record. We hope that parents and other relatives will take it upon themselves to be sure that the per-sons from their home are properly represented on this war record in order that there shall be no omrals-slon- s when the record is finally com-plete. It is the plan of the State Council of Defense that this work shall begin at once. 'AH preliminary organization has now been completed and filing of names should begin within the pres-ent week. STORY OF THE RED' CROSS DIET KITCHENS It was the Bien Etre de Blesse (The French Society for Well Being of Wounded) that was grappling with the problems of furnishing supple-mentary food to the French wounded. Tle only system which they were able to follow, owing to shortage of funds and lack of facilities, was that of Bonding to the hospitals quantities of dried foods, sardines and wines for distribution. When the American ' Red Cross arrived upon the scene, tiie Bien Etre du Blesse applied to them i for financial aid. Upon due cousid-- ! eration the Red Cross replied that ' they would gladly furnish the funds on condition that a more scientific system of special feeding be adopt-- 1 ed, somewhat on the basis of the diet kitchens in American hospitals. At first the .Bien Etre feared that this would be too much of an iunova-- 1 tion and expected to meet with re--' fusal from the French hospital author- - ities. But the Marquise d'Andine, who heads the committee, laid the proposition before them. The reply was that It was not from choice that France fed beef to men. with, high tern-- 1 peratures, and that any arrangement which provided for special feeding for j special cases would! only be too wel--. come. Whereupon the Red Cross gave equipment and material for four j model kitchens, each in charge of a trained professional dietitician, speak-- ' ing French. The Flea Etre du Blesse ; which draws a large part of its funds from America, opened other kitchens In other French hospitals on the pat-tern of those given by the Red Cross. These kitchens are in charge usually of amateur dieticians, but the Red Cross provides a professional consult-ant dietician who goes about among these hospitals and offers suggestions and advice. The American Expeditionary Force brought with It a trained dietician for every base hospital. These women are civilian employees of the army, but they are enlisted by the Red Cross in the United 'States, insured by the Red Cross and dressed by the Red Cross. In many cases the evacuation hos-pitals of the U. S. army in the field are in need of equipment for diet kitchens. The need is urgent and the time too short to wait for the army authorities to act in Washington. , The Red Cross has worked out a stan-dard equipment, consisting of. a range, refrigerator, ice cream freezer ' and all the essential dishes, pans, etc., which la now made in Paris and may j be ordered by any hospital. They j stand ready to give out such equip-ments to all hospitals where there is definite need, upon notification from the army authorities at Tours. At the present time these equipments are very expensive. . In OctDber, 1917, ne chief nurses of the American Expeditionary Force ' held a conference an made out a list of extras and delicacies, based both on the needs of their patients and on the actual market in France. These delicacies the Red Cross has under-taken to supply in all cases where the army quartermaster Is unable to do so. i At the present moment, the Red Cross is providing delicacies for dis-tribution in various hospitals in and around Paris, both American and French. Not satisfied with this, they are planning a large Central Diet kitchen which will take over this work on a much larger scale. This kitchen will be in charge of Miss Mary Elizabeth Evans, who has Just TkrrliedJrom America. One of Its special funcllo1!-F4U..b- 0 t0 supply ice cream to the American wtsunded. For it Is fast passing into a d -- that the American soldier cannot get well without ice cream. To facilitate mat-ters, the Red Cross is on the point of distribtuing freezers broadcast among the hospitals. They use to tell us that ice cream was "undermining the constitution of the American people." If so, it is a bit like the brand of whiskey that General Grant used to imbibe. The Jled Cross, like President Lincoln, is locking for more of the same sort of stuff that made these ice cream fed boys of ours behave as they have done in the great battles of 1918. , RELEASE OF MEN BEMID DEMOBILIZATION PLANNED ON T BASIS OF INDUSTRIES' ABILITY v TO ABSORB WORKERS. Men Will Not Be Turned Loose to Shift for Themselves, but Will Be Provided With Employment Before Being Discharged From Service. Washington. Demobilization of men in the military and naval service of the United States after their return from France will be carried out lurge-;"v- (. ly on a basis of the ability of trades ' and occupations to absorb them, ac-cording to a plan being worked out by the labor, war and navy departments and the war Industries board. It was said that the plan will be submitted to President Wilson soon. The war Industries board has sent " questionnaires to employers In all in dustries asking the needs of each for men and the answers will show where, when and how rapidly jobs will be ready for discharged soldier? and sail- -' ors and what trades are most In need V of them. Supplementing this informa- - tion will be that received from draft boards and community labor boards which are to In the word. Bodies to Be Combined. The war labor policies board and the United States employment aervlce will be combined to handle the labor de-partment's end. The war department is expected to establish a new bureau or to convert the activities of Provost Marshal General Crowder'a office to this end. General Crowder was sug-gested by some officials as the man best qualified to deal with the task of preserving the balance of power of the labor supply without delaying de-mobilization operations. With the conversion of Industry from a war to a peace basis many workers also will be released from emergency jobs created by the war, but this problem has been taken into con-sideration by the officials who are working out plans for a general sta-- i Mlzlng of labor conditions when the soldiers are returned to civil life. Much Work Ahead. In this connection, officials pointed out that with the ending of hostilities there will be a great resumption of private construction and manufactur-ing, held up and restricted because of war work, and that thousands of skilled laborers will be needed In all parts of the country for this work. r Secretary Baker said every phase of demobilization of the army is being carefully studied by war department agencies, but as yet no plans have been formally formulated. The only orders so far Issued curtailing war work deal with projects upon which work has not actually started, he said. The question of the number of American troops to be released in f tt France or elsewhere In Europe is be-in- g studied on that side, Mr. Baker said, while the general stuff Is pre-parti-recommendations as - to the number to be kept under arms in this onnntrv. The uroblt'in In Europe re-- mulns of Joint operations with the allied nations in after-the-w- guard- - Ing and other work to be done by e military forces and no conclusions on this point can yet be made. - Mr. Baker said several factors will govern the order In which men will be released from the army. It Is obvious, , he said, that as a matter of Justice, men who have been longest In the ser-- 1 vice should be released first, but the Industrial situation and the special need for men of a certain calling prob-ably will modify the principle of mak-ing a lengthy service to guide for mus-tering out. The labor employes are confident that the demobilization of the 4.000,000 men now under arms at home and overseas and the conversion of Indus-- 1 try to its peace status will not cause J any serious problem of unemployment. .

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN The United States Government ask-ed a loan from tne people of the country of $,000,000,000, an amount unprecedented in ail the history of the world. In three weeks' time, in spite of an epidemic of influenza which prevented public meetings and cost the people many millions of dol-lars in medical bills and lost time, and in spite, too, of the peace rum-ors that in some instances had a ten-dency to make the success of the loan seem less vital, some 1,000,000 of the American people offered to the Gov-ernment $6,866,416,300. Each Federal Reserve district oversubscribed its quota. Thousands of cities, towns, and communities oversubscribed their quotas. Secretary MoAdoo says that the Fourth 'Liberty Loan is the great-est single event in financial history. The Fourth Loan was called the fighting loan; it is a record of Ameri-canism comparable with the record that our soldiers on the battle fronts and our sailors on the seas are mak-ing. The people at home have given loyal support to our fighting men. Our sildierg are holding every acre of ground they take. (Let the people at home hold every (Liberty (Bond they have taken. A Liberty (Bond is a certificate of patriotism; keep it to show to our boys when they come back from Eu-rope. CONTINUE TO HELP THE WAR WORK Every purchaser of a Uberty Bond or at least every purchaser of a Lib-erty Bond who holds his or her bond, when reading of the great work that big American naval guns are doing in France can reflect that they help-ed to provide these guns and to put them into action and are keeping them at work. These guns were put through the severest test and showed much farth-er ranges and more accurate fire than had ever been possible with projec-tiles of such large size. They do not shoot no far as the long range gun with which the Germans bombarded Paris, but they shoot vastly larger projectiles and they shoot with ac-curacy. They are used not against de-fenseless cities but against German defenses and German railroads and German troops. Keep your money invested in these cannon. Continue to help win the war by holding your Liberty Bonds. And He's Worth Listening To. The, roan who really has nothing to ngtocraHy talks less than other peo-ple, because be considers It worth giv-ing some thought to. war as now. How sure and safe an investment it is, and how profitable an investment, to keep your moneys invested in (Liberty Bonds until Its -- purchasing power becomes greater than at present It is a better invest-ment than wildcat stock, it is a bet-ter use and a wiser use of your Dio- - ey than speculating with it. It is a duty to your country and to yourselves and to your children to' hold your Liberty (Bonds, HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS The money invested in Liberty Konds if kept so invested until peace is established wlll.be worth much more then than now. Every provident man and women In the United States who holds his or her Liberty .Bonds may find the money so Invested worth twice as much in purchasing after " ' : TIIE NAVY AND THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN The United States Navy subscribed .to $43j218,50 of tht Fourth Libert Loan. Of this sum. pearly $9,000,000 was subscribed by the officers and Bailors on duty on our ships in the war rones. Mrs. George Dewey, the widow of the great Admiral, had her subscription to the Loan credited to, the Navy. , To Navy's subscription to the Fourth LEr-fUQJi- mora than its subscription to the FirX cond, and Third Loans combined and between $15,000,000 and $20,000,000 -- more than its assigned quota The Navy did its duty in the Fourth Loan, with the same superb spirit that it does Is duty in the fighlng zones. The Navy is doing Its part in the fighting and In the financing of the nation, and going "over the top" la both. It may be relied upon, too, that the . Navy is going to keep Its bonds. Our Navy never does its duty only halt ' way. No feature of the Fourth I.ih. erty Loan is more inspiring than the heavy oversubscription of the offic-- ers and men of the American Navy. L .
