'iuK MORNING STAB, WILMINGTON, N. CM? SATURDAY, AUGUST 10, 1918. TEN. GHIM'S SYMPATHY IS WITH AMERICA Last Red Cross Drive a Striking Example. SACRED PARCHMENT SCROLLS RETURNED VIM AND D VIGOR WORTH A FORTUNE ALONE BOTH ARE YOURS IF TOU TAKE ; - AMERICAN BANK & TRUST C (Corner Front and Market Streets; MANT&NE Appeals for Subscriptions Are Respond ed to Nobly, Even the Poor Coolies caving Part of Their Meagre Earnings. . Washington, Aug. 9. Chinese sym pathy and friendship for the United States was shown in striking fashion during the last Red Cross drive for funds to carry on the organization's relief work in Europe. An account of the appeal made in China for aid for the Red Cross was received today from .Julian Arnold, commercial attache at Shanghai, saying that the Chinese of all classes "responded nobly." America was the first nation to so licit the active participation of the Chinese in war relief work. "We secured a good strong commit tee of younger Chinese headed by C. T. Wong, former vice president of the Chinese senate," Mr. Arnold said. "Eight teams were organized under team cap tains, who were American college grad uates. These Chinese teams worked hard and 25,000 Chinese were added to the Red Cross membership from Shan ghai and environs. "P. K. Che, secretary of the Chinese world's students' confederation, car ried oft the honors for his team for the largest number of members secured. Chu Chi Chein, former minister of the Interior, piled up 2,000 members to his credit. Chang Chien, former minister of commerce and agriculture, added a good number of members. "There was also a Chinese woman's team, headed by beautiful Chinese girl graduates from American colleges. This team secured over 2,000 memberships. Many Chinese schools in Shanghai joined as junior auxiliaries. "A number of large Chinese compa nies joined with their entire staffs. The Commercial Press with 2,000 employes came in 100 per cent. One department store arranged that all its employes re ceiving less than $15 a montft? should have 60 per cent, of the membership fees paid by the firm, so that all the members of this large 'concern went about with Red Cross buttons during the drive. The Shanghai hotels also joined, with every waiter, bell boy and coolie .wearing a Red Cross with pride. "The captain of one of the Chinese teams expressed surprise at the gen eral response of the poorer classes to the Red Cross appeal. It was no un common occurrence to have a coolie on the street answer a request to join with such remarks as: " "America has always been the friend of China. She gave back to China the Boxer indemnity and did other things to help us. Now I am glad to join "the American Red Cross and help Amer ica.' "A poor man, receiving wages of less than $10 a month, sent us from Ningpo, 100 miles south of Shanghai, by courier post, not knowing that Chi na has a modern postal administration, at a cost of 15 cents for delivery and 15 cents for return receipts, $1.50 for a membership in the Red Cross. He stated that he had heard his friends tell how friendly the United States had been to China and he wanted to join this great society." HAYWOOD DENIES HE ADVOCATED VIOLENCE I. W. W. Secretary Compares "Wage Slave of Today and Chattel Slave Before Civil War. Chicago, Aug. 9. William D. Hay wood, characterized by government counsel as "the swivel chair king" of a conspiracy to upset America's mili tary program stoutly denied on the witness stani late today that he had ever advocated violence, and reas serted his views that essential social reforms must be brought about by industrial rather than by political methods. The general secretary and treasurer of the I. W. W., in short, dramatic sentences, struck a comparison be tween the "wage slave of today and the chattel slave before the civil war." "The black man of the south before the war was better off," he asserted. "This slave had but one master, who wned his body. But this master fed lim well. He was well housed end ?iven good, substantial clothes and his free hours were cpent with his fam ily. "Now these black men have been brought to East St. Louis cr the Chi sago packing plants and neither life aor happiness is secure." As chief witness for the defense, Haywood reviewed the stormy career Df the I. W. W. from its organization in 1905 by members of the western fed eration of miners, the American labor union, the social trade and labor al liance and -'milar organizations up to the industrial strike of 1909. He re affirmed his belief in the I. W. W. pre amble to the declaration of principles which says "there can be nothing in Jommon between employer and worK 5r' and then pointed to what he termed the small political power of the work ing people. PTavy Draft Not Neeeary. Washington, Aug. 8. Extension of the draft system to the navy is not re garded as necessary at this time by the navy department.. Rear Admiral Pal mer, chief of the bureau of navigation, told the senate military committee to day the navy has practically all the men it needs, and that all enlistments would not be affected by changing the army draft ages.

(Correspond ence of the Associated Press.) Resto ration of the parchment scrolls of the law to the various synagogues in Tel Aviv and Jaffa was one of the Inter esting ceremonies which followed the British occupation. These scrolls of the Law of Moses which are all written by hand and are preserved in magnificently ornamented cases, some of them in solid silver, are the most sacred and holy possessions of every Jewish community. So when Djemal Pasha in his hostility to the Zionists, carried out thetyrannical evacuation of the bulk of the Jewish population of Jaffa in April, 1917, the Jews carried with them these sacred Torah into exile, lest they should fall into the hands of the Turks. These" sacred scrolls had been care fully guarded by the Jews at Petach Tikvah (Mulebbis), and were brought back in solemn procesion ' to Jaffa. A triumphal arch was erected at the northern confines of Tel Aviv, every house was decorated with flowers and bunting and the whole of the Jewish population turned out en fete to meet the return of their sacred possessions. Jews came not merely from Jaffa but also from Richon-le-Zion and the other neighboring colonies. ' The young men and the girls of the Maccabee Athletic association dressed in white clothes, with blue sashes and ties maintained order and kept a path way clear for the procession through the crowds. The procession was head ed by the Australian military band and the ceremony at the triumphal arch was attended by officers representing the military governor and by Dr. Weizmann and the members and of ficers o tne Zionist commission. The Haham Bashi (chief rabbi) of Jaffa mounted a small dais near the triumphal arch and delivered an elo quent Hebrew address in which he recounted the hardships of the evacua tion. He thanked and invoked bless ings upon the British government and the British army and expressed the hop that success would crown the efforts of the Zionist commissions. The Jews desired to regenerate and build up Palestine, not merely for their own benefit, but for that of all its inhabi tants whose friendship and help he in vited. The re-establishment of the Jewish people in their ancient home In Palestine, he said, would be for the good of all humanity. Thenthe Shofar or Ram's horn was blown and the scrolls were carried un der canopies by the chief rabbi. Dr. Weizmann and others to the various synagogues to which they belonged. In the afternoon the town of Tel Avid remainde en fete. There were processions of the school children crowned and decorated with flowers, the Yemenites carrying small lambs and goats on their sohulders and bear ing palms in their hands. Children sold flowers and confetti in the streets, the proceeds of which go to a fund started recently by the Zionist teachers for translating into Hebrew and pub lishing Hebrew, English books and lit earture. In the evening the Maccabees gave an athletic demonstration in the public gardens, and the proceedings closed at sunset with the singing of "God Save the King" and the Zionist National Anthem "Hatikvah," the song of hope. PRISONER'S HEALTH AND ROAD BUILDING (Continued From Page Five), at least four hundred cubic feet of air space in sleeping quarters. Each corri dor or preferably each cell should be provided with a proper flush closet. If public water supplies and sewers are not available, private plants should be installed. Water may come from an uncontaminated spring, stream or deep well. In any event it should be tested from time to time - as : to potability. Private sewage disposal plants are so reasonable in cost and successful- in operation that there should be no ex cuse for not having one in every pub lic institution or private home either for that matter, where city. sewers are not available. "Heat, best- supplied from- a central steam or hot water plant, should -keep the cells and corridor at a mean tem perature of 68 degrees F., and in con nection with such heating there should be installed a ventilating system able to supply at least fifty cubic feet of fresh air per minute to each inmate. "The plumbing installation should include at least one lavatory and one shower bath for every ten inmates; also a steam laundry of sufficient ca pacity for the cleansing and steriliza tion of all clothing and bedding of the inmates. In connection with this laundry a steam chamber could well be provided for the steam sterilization of unwashable material. "The building throughout should be constructed of brick or concrete and steel so far as funds will permit, not only that it may be of fireproof con struction, but that it may also be ro dent and vermin proof. Floors, oailings and walls should be of cement or water proof materials so that they may be easily washed down. The bunks may be in tiers for economy of 'floor space if the proper amount of floor arid air space is allowed. All bunks should be of metal construction to avoid harbor ing vermin, various fotms of which are known to transmit disease. "Every prisoner should be given a hot bath and cletn clothing on admis sion. A continual personal cleanli ness of inmates should be a part of the routine prison discipline. "A cell or group of cells which can be completely isolated should be pro vided lor the reception of any conta gious disease which might develop af ter a prisoner's admission. "F6od, though it may be cheap and coarse, should be of a quantity and character necessary for him expected to labor. The kitchen, of cement finish throughout, should, be modernly equip ped with facilities for easy cooking and serving of food,- ' preferably it should have mechanical wish washers and an abundant supply of hot water is indispensible. A light, - dry . and airy storeroom should be provided with proper refrigeration and suitable con tainers built well above the floor for the storage of . foods. In, kitchen and stroeroom, as weir as throughout the prison, rodents, vermin-, and ; the fly should be exterminated. Swat the fly, trap the fly, screen the premises and destroy his breeding place., .

Full Treatment No Benefit No Cost One Dollar rules governing a prison should also govern a prison camp where feasible in a temporary stockade the men are perhaps better kept in tents than in portable cells on wheels. If the latter are used care must be taken not to overcrowd them and each must be pro vided with adequate ventilation and some form of fly-proof closet pail. "Not only for the protection of the camp itself, but also for the protec tion of the general public as well, it is necessary that the most rigid precau tions be taken concerning the disposal of human excrement. The pits should be dug at least two hundred feet from any water supply and not less than four feet deep, and of suitable dimen sions. Over each pit a suitable box and fly-proof seat should be built. The contents of such a pit should never reach nearer than within two feet of the surface of the ground, when it should be filled in with dry earth. Be fore filling this pit and at daily inter vals during its use, the contents Bhould be thoroughly covered with freshly slacked lime. No prisoners should be allowed to answer the calls of nature elsewhere than at such temporary closets, which should also receive' all garbage and the contents of all sani tary cans. "Particular care should be exercised that the camp water supply comes from a source uncontaminated by farm out buildings or other sources, and that those in the camp itself do not pol lute it. "At camp as at prison, every means should be employed to destroy the fly and prevent its breeding. Particular attention should be paid to garbage and manure piles as breeding places. The manure should be removed at least weekly to a distance of not less than one-half mile, where it should be thin ly spread. "This, gentlemen, is a short resume of why and how prisons and prison camps should be sanitated. I hope it may be considered a pardonable pride with which we point to the high score of one hundred which our local prison and stofkade obtained at the hands of the state officials. "New Hanover's prisons and roads make a good showing. Perhaps some relation between the former and the latter may now be appreciated." BUTTE OF MONTMARTRE LONELY AND DESOLATE This favored Spot of the Pre-War Tourist In Praaee Ztmtutm a Dil apidated Apperance. London Aug. S. The Paris corres pondent of the Daily Express writes that he climed the hill to the Butte of Montmartre the other day and looked down ever Paris beneath a pall of smoke. He trod the paths followed by the pre-war tourists, traversing the Mont martre they knew, with its glided, mir rored night restaurants. "Would you could see these places now," he continues. "The Rat Mort and the Abbaye look like dilapidated Irish homesteads; the sails of the Moulin Rouge have crumble- to- dust. Then I left the Montmartre the tour ists knew, crossed the Place Blanche, and befan a step climb up the Rue Lepic. There1 are no signs of panic on the Bu'te. The Montmartois connot af ford the luxury of flight, so they car ry on. "Three quarters of the way up the hill stands the Moulin de Golette, a famous old mill which became a danc ing place where young men took their sweethearts on Saturday night Now the young men are in the trenches and young women in the munition factories, and the old mill is forsaken. "One turns to the left on passing the mill and suddely plunges int oa different atmosphere.- The goatherds shepherds his flock across the commie stones and makes strange sounds on his flute, and those who would but come out -and purchase goat's milk. "Premier Clemenceau was once may or of Montmartre, and there are still living on the' heights old people who helped to put him there. Today they sit in the sun and smoke and talk quietly and wait. They are too old to do anything else. 'We have confi dence, we of the Butte; trust in Clem enceau said an old man to whom I spoke. "That is what everybody is doing; trusting in 'the Tiger' to see that things are done well.' WILMINGTON RANKS HIGH IN WAR Y. M. C. A. WORKERS City Has Furnished Ten Men More Than Any Other in State. Wilmington has the distinction of having furnished more men in propor tion to the number of applicants seek ing service as Y. M. C. A. directors: in camps at home or overseas than any other city- in this state. The above statement was given out last night by J. T. Mangum, state re cruiting secretary for the V. M. C. A., who is at present stationed in the city to recruit men for service in the "Y." Mr. Mangum states that men of all classes arid degrees of training who are above the draft age can be of, serv ice in the "Y." At. present there are openings ranging from the" business executive who is needed to handle fi nancial affairs of the organization to the man who stands behind the counter in the canteen and passes out cigarettes and chocolates. And the man behind the counter, declared Mr. Mangum, is as indispensable as the executive, who plans the work of the canteen and or ders supplies.' Ten Wilmington men have been in ducted into service with the "Y by Mr. Mangum and he hopes to enlist several more during his stay in the city Mr. Mangum is at present engaged in visit ing the towns of North Carolina in an effort to create more . enthusiasm for his branch of the service and to re ceife volunteers. He will be stationed in the office of the collector of customs in the Mu-rchison bank building until 3 o'clock this afternoon, and will gladly confer with any who. are interested n enlisting in any branchy of he .Y.
