MAN MAIL ' REFUSED BY ARMY i .COB&ENZ. Feb. 7. thousands of residents of Coblenz have relatives of friends in the United States and during the first few weeks of Ameri can occupation there war. a line of Germans every day at the army post- office with letters for those across the Atlantic. The Germans had gained the false impression that thev could communicate with people in the United States bv use of the army's mail ser vice. - The residents of Coblenz and other towns in this vicinity continued to stream to the United States branch . postoffice each duv in such numbers that eventually, at the reauest of the authorities, notices were published in the German newspapers , explaining that no German mail was being re ceived for the United States. Ameri cans of the army of occupation are not allowed to use the German mails for communication with enemy stib- iccts residing either within or without the occupied zone. t i Wounded severely Corp.

THE SEATTLE THE Seattle strike marks the initial effort of tluv ex treme radienls to stage . -social revolution along Bolshevik lines in America. The strikers have no real grievance, the vast majority even no pretense of a griev ance, but are blindly following, they know not where, the leadership of a group of foreign born anarchists who have secured control of the ship builders' unions and labor council, and planned a general strike for the avowed pur pose of upsetting the government and seizing control of industry, in order that the United States may become a second Russia, with lied control written in redder blood, flying the red flag of anarchy. . The Bolshevik character of the strike is shown by the seditums utterances of the strike loaders, by tho disloy alty, they have public paraded, and by the inf Initiatory character of the literature they are distributing among the strikers. We quote the following poster picked up on the streets of Seattle by a Medford man this week. ; RUSSIA DID IT Shipyard Workers You left tho shipyards to enforce your demands tor higher wages. Without you your employers are helpless. Without you they cannot make one cent ol profit their whole system ot robbery has collapsed. Tho shipyards are Idle; the tollers havo withdrawn even tho the own ers of the yatds are still there. Are your masters building ships? No. Without your labor power It would take all the shipyard employers of Sonitle and Tacoma working eight hours a day the next thousand years to turn out one ship.;, Of what use are they In the shipyards? It is vnn anri vml nlnna who htlUrl the shins: Votl create all the wenlth of society today; you make possible the $75,000 sable coals for million aire's wives. It Is you alone who can build the ships. They can t build tho ships, iou can. why don t you? There are the shipyards: more ships are urgently needed: you alone can build them. If the masters continue their dog-ln-the-mauger atti tude, not able to build the ships themselves and not allowing the wor kers to. there is only one thing left for you to do. Take over the management of the shipyards yourselves; make the shipyards your own: make the jobs your own: decide the working condi tions yourselves; decide your wages In Russia the masters refused to The Russian workers put aside the bosses and their tool, the Russian gov. ernment, and took over industry In tueir own interests. i There is only one way out; a nation-wide general strike with its ob ject the overthrow" of the present rotten system which produces thousands of millionaires and millions of paupers each year. The Russians have shown you the way out. . What are you going to do about it? You are doomed to wage slavory till you die unless you wake up, realise that you and the boss have not one thing in common, that the employing class must be overthrown, and that you, the workers, must take over the control of your jobs, and thru them, the control over your lives instead ot offering yourselves up to the masters as a sacrifice six days a week, so that they may coin profits out of your sweat and toil. Russia has indeed "shown the way," the way to mas sacre, famine and anarchy, the establishment and main tainence by bloodshed of a tyranny more terrible than ever czar perpetrated and native Americans have no de sire to follow such leadership whatever inay be the hopes of the foreign born. The Seattle strike is due directly to the negligent im migration policy of the country that makes America the refuge and asylum of anarchists and assassins of all lands; to the abuse of American laws of free speech that permit every street comer and park of the great cities to become a soap-box pulpit for preaching class hatred and sedition; and that permits the perversion of a free press by the pub lication and circulation of such inflammatory and disloyal appeals as that above printed. " - 4 . If we are going to stop the spread of Bolshcvikisnt in America, the first step must be the arrest and deportation or imprisonment of thoscadvocating revolution. A con spiracy to create a general strike like that in Seattle, for the purpose of creating revolution and destroying the government is nothing more nor less than treason and those guilty of it, should receive the punishment reserved for traitors. - The Farm Bureau What It Does ' A County Farm Bureau is an asso ciation of farmers and farmers wives which has for its purpose the devel opment of the most profitable and permanent system ot agriculture and the most wholesome and progressive home and community life. There are more than 800 such farm bureaus in the 33 northern and western states having a total membership of nearly half a million farmers. Differs From Other Organizations The Farm Bureau is a non-secret and non-political organization. It has no "local" or community branch. It does not therefore compete with or take the place of existing organiza tions but cooperates with all willing to cooperate. The members attend community and county-wide meetings not regularly but only when there Is a special need for such meetings. It receives special assistance from the county agricultural agent, the home demonstration agent and the commu nity club leader because it is recog nized as the county organization thru which the state and federal govern ment carries on ail extension work in agriculture and home economics. Works Through Committees ,. The Farm Bureau decides - upon definite community and county prob lems which need Us attention and outlines construction programs of work and alms to do Its work and serve the people thru committees. It hag no unnecessary machinery. There is only one committeeman on each committee for each main defin ite, line of work to he undertaken. The committees are kept as small as possible and no member Is placed oh any committee until there is a piece of work that should be done. If the committee is already large the work is assigned to some one already on the committee. The most Important committees are as follows: No. 1. A community committee of from 1 to 8 men and women each of whom serves as leader of some community activity or project Includ ed. In the community program of work. . . iXo. 2. . A county executive com mittee of 15 members including' the ; JOHN A. PERL Undertaker , Phone SI. 47 and 47-J2 ', . - Automobile Henrso Service - Lady Assistant 8B SOUTH nARTI15TT Auto Ambillituce Service, Coroner REVOLUTION. ... yourselves. give their slaves a living wage too. president, vice-president and secre tary-treasurer ot the Farm Bureau. Each person on the executive com mittee including the officers, serves as a county leader of some major part of the'eounty program of work. No. 3. County project committees consisting of the project lcador on the executive committee and the cor responding leaders of various com munity committees who are promot ing some line of work such as rodent control. ; : Membership . Any family Interested in rural pro gress may join by paying membership fee of (1. This entitles all adult members of the family to member ship privileges including right to vote. ; It also pays for a year's sub scription to the Farm Bureau News. All Farm Buroau funds are expended upon approval of executive commit tees and treasurer will give complete report to members at annual meet ing. Join the Farm Bureau not only for what it may do for you, but for what you can do thru it for jrour com munity. THE. MEN IN CLASS Al A sound, healthy man is never a bsck number.
