a Co Ma Halo straot 4 the work. Mr. Levy spoke before a mass meeting of Houston HeighU cltisens Tuesday and wilj talk to the employes of the Cyras W. Scott overall manufactory Wednesday. Tuesday 1.

Levy Issued the following statement with reaard to the attitude of the newspapers In regard to the move- i menL 1 "I want to call the attention of the people of Harris comity to the magnificent support given the Red Cross movement by the press of the city and county. If tuere Is any one industry or class proving unusually patriotic and helpful It is the newspapers. "Carrying, as they do, the burden of governmental publicity, church, lodge and organisation news and other public matter, they are proving more than generous with their space, and in addition they are turning in 100 per cent clubs. The newspapers certainly deserve, the thanks of the government, the Red Cross and the people." LABOR UNIONS JOIN MOVEMENT IN EARNEST. The movement among the labor unions is gaining way.

Some question as to whether employes should join with their firms or with their unions brought from Chairman Levy the following statement: "By all means the employes of the various firms should Join with their firms. When their unions present all the other members as Red Cross members that union naturally has a 100 per cent Red Cross organization because all its members are members of the Red Cross wheher they joined in the union or through their employing firm." Tony Hunting and Corinne Prances, playing this week In the "Love Blossoms" at the Majestic, are displaying proudly a Red Cross flag which, they bought at headquarters with their membership. It ia in the act now. The lumbermen are coming along with a rusn, dui tneir canvass is not yet complete. The sheet metal contractors will be brought into line by W.
