children caught in the Invasion of their countries by the war-mad beasts
from thr German jungle—you know about them? You know the Amerl
can Red Cross in Europe Is the one agency that can help them—that It
is the silver llnfng of the blaokest cloud the world has ever known? The
Red Cross must have 15,000,000 members by Christmas eye. You must
Join at once. The man who would turn down the Red Cross ought for
ever more to be ashamed to face good worried and innocent children.

Omaha, Nebr., Dec. 12: Members
0 the Wholesale Grocers’ and Retail

•'mference in Omaha last Friday
th Ourdon W. Wattles, Federal
1 >od Administrator for Nebraska.
These committees, meeting jointly,
considered what were fair margins of
profit in handling fundamental food*
stuffs, and their findings will be used
as a guide for county administrators
and their committees in fixing these
prices. These prices average 12%
per cent on laid down cost.
A pleasing feature of these meet
ings were the patriotic expressions of
every member and their willingness to
co-operate with the Food Administra
tion, often at their own loss.
“We want to co-operate with the
public in every way,” said E .E. Wise,
chairman of the Retailers’ Committee,
“and we Want the co-operation of the
public.” 7 •
