"It. makes no difference, to me
whether there is German influence
behind these strikes," said the (,'ov-i-inor.
"The fact is these strikes are
directly aiding an enemy of the
I'nited Slntes Germany by eiutail
injf the production of copper."
Governor Campbell also said, ill a
statement to the Associated 1'ress,
that he had been advised by leaders
of the Industrial Wifrkers of the
World that tho striku here was part
of a nation-wide movement and that
orders eoneornini; it came from the
executive committee of I lip Industrial
Workers of the World in Chicago.
(Juiet has been maintained in
Globe since the arrival of a siiundroii

employ strikebreakers in any of the
mines. In Hisbce, where the Metal
Jline Workers' Industrial union first
ordered the strike, there has been no
disorder nnd the mine inninc'crs
claim sonio success in inducing men
to return to work. Order lias been
maintained, loo, in the Clil'ton-Mor-enci

Governor Campbell's statement to
the Associated Press says;
"'file labor situation iu the Globc
Miiinii district is grave from the ruct
that two demands have been made up
on the operators, one from Hie Inter
national I'nion of Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers, and another from
the Industrial Workers of I he World.
I'be strikes became effective iioiue

no production from a district that
last year produced more llian 'J 1 7,

"Willi I he cilizcns' committee unit

frame of mind, the situation was, in
my opinion, sufficiently tense lo add
my concurrence to recommendalions
made by the regular officer, Major

which would have led only to loss of

BILL TO INFORM
PEOPLE ABOUT
EVENTS OF WAR
Congressman Kelly Introduces Meas
ure to Establish War Information
Commission, to Prepare Informa
tion Concerning All Branches of
Government.
Hy HILTON IIHONNKlt
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 7
"In France the government is going
right to Ibe H'oplc with information
about tho war, spreading tho news
through official bulletins, which are
read aloud by the teachers in every
school in tho republic. Tho result is
a marvelous solidarity has been ob
tained and tho French people know
what is going on, discuss things iu
Iheir community meetings and eomc
to tho support of the cabinet in the
matters that are of vital import. 1
would like to see our public' schools
used in Hie same way."
Kelley Kiirtlici'N Measure.
The speaker was Congressman
Clyde Kelly of I'illsburg, who bus in
troduced a hill "to establish direct
contact between tho people and the
iiutional government by the eroiition
of a war information commission."
This commission would bo composed
of cabinet officers, wilh u civilian
chairman to ho named by the presi-
lciit. 1 would bo their duty to pro
aire informal ion concerning all
branches of the government and issue
weekly liullelins.
Citizens of any public school dis
trict who had organized u community
association to meet ill tho school
would be entitled to Ibis bulletin.
Kelly frunkly says he got all his ideas
on the subject from Hie French sys
tem.
Over there the government gels out
a "bulletin Ailiniuislriilil' ' each week.
For instance, one called "The Hook of
Gold" contained a list of casualties.
There were also lists of men cited for
bravery, or who were given military
medals or who were promoted. A
communication from a cabinet tiinis-
ter told Hint Hie United Stales Jind
entered the war, discussed the reus.
ons that impelled this action, and set
forth how this should cheer the al
lies.
I'lllze School House.
'Your plan is very good," 1 said to
Kelly, "hut won't congressmen make
Hie natural objection that these hul-
Vtms are not needed here because'
r people are the greatest renders
of newspapers in Hie world? "
"People rend Hie' newsiianers in
.heir homes," said Kelly. "The ob
ject of gelling them to the si bool
louses is to discuss the news. Think
what it would mean if every week we
could get men and women by the mil
lions to go to their schoolhouscs ami
discuss getting behind the next lib
erty loan, or the Hcd Cross, or food
conservation, or any of Ibe all-ini-'lortanl
things Hint are guing to arise
during the war. v

"In lime of peril the ancient Heb
rews used to cry 'To your tents, (I

Tuesday night at roll call the wide

to remain up to witness the Roundup
fun in the park and on the streets.
Cut Scout Master Sh,e don sternly
ordered them to bed at once, and
after ho was sure that the order
had been obeyed himsolf went down
ito see the fun.
About 1 a. m. lie returned very
tlrod and sleepy. "Oh hum", ho re
marked as he started for his tent
after he had listened and counted
up nil the youthful snorers, "thereby
nothing like a good bed."
But his bed was gone. So was his
tent and all the rest of its contents.
Not a vestige in sight. No sound
but snores and suppressed giggles. No
clue. "Daw gone It," he ejaculated
About 2 a. m. the scout master
finally found his tent, bedding, etc,

mile from camp.

Kokomo, Ind. Mrs. H. Hankemeier,
of this town, says: ' "I look so well, and
am so well, that It does not seem as if 1
ever needed Cardui. But 1 was not al
ways this way ... I think I have taken a
dozen bottles . . . before my little girl
came.
I was feeling dreadfully bad, had head-
ache, backache, sick at my stomach, no
energy ... I was very irritable, too, and
nervous.
I began taking Cardui about 6 months
before my baby came. As a result all
those bad feelings left me, and I just felt
grand, just as if nothing at all was the
matter, and when the end came I was
hardly sick at all.
Since that I have never taken Cardui
at all . . . It has done me good, and I
know it will help others, if they will only
try it."
Many women have written grateful let
ters like the above, telling of the good
that Cardui has done them. Why should
it not help you, too? If you sulfcr from
