CHITINA TO FAIRBANKS
MAIL CONTRACT IS LET
As a matter of good news to the
residents of Fairbanks will be the
statement that the summer mail con
tract for the carrying of the mail
between Fairbanks and the coast has
been let. The new contractor is Mrs.
Rose Johnson of Valdez. The suc
cessful bidder is an old-time resident
of Alaska, and thoroughly under
stands the conditions that will have
to be met in making trips across
country. The consideration of the
contract is not made public.
The information states that the con
tractor will soon leave for Chitina,
and it is presumed that the service
will be between that place and Fair
banks instead of from Valdez.
The transportation will be made by
auto trucks, of which a number will
be scut from the States in the near
future. Owing to the condition of the
trail, it is possible that the service
will not start unti^ about the middle
of June, from which time it will be
continued until September 30, at
which time the winter service will
commence.—Fairbanks Citizen.

PARIS, June 8.—The entire med
ical staff of the American Red Cross j f
in France has been mobilized to meet! ,
any emergency that may arise in the1 (
problem of handling medical service i
for refugees and others. Hitherto (
doctors had volunteered for such work.
They have now been divided into
three classes—those whose work is
of such a character that they can
be considered immediately available; !|
those working in Paris at such impor- \
taut work that their services should
not be called on except in extreme1
emergency, and those at work outside
of Paris. j'
The night telephone operators at r
headquarters in Paris have the tele-!
phone numbers of a group of doctors
who can be called out at any hour of I
the day or night.
Ample full-time nursing service at
the railroad stations and shelters in
Paris is assured by a similar mobili
zation of nurses and nurses’ aids.
Four units of one doctor and two
nurse%each, provided with full equip
ment of drugs, supplies and instru
ments, are already in the field; simi
lar emergency kits are prepared and
ready for immediate service when
other units are called out.

OF POST-WAR SUFFERING
NEW YORK, June 8.—The distress!
now prevailing in Germany as a re-j
suit of the war will continue after the j
return of peace, said Dr. Georg Mi-j
chaelis, the former chancellor, in an
address in Henneckenstein, according
to the Cologne Gazette. German ma-j
terialism shared in the responsibility
for the war. Dr. Michaelis declared,I
and he added:
“We must recognize that we also
are responsible for the war, hut not
politically, for the emperor wanted
peace up to the last moment. Fate
has sent us that because money be
gan to rule among us. God wanted
to save us from complete material
ization. I would rather renounce war!
indemnities, if I again should he re
sponsible. than to see our people be
placed by the payments of their debts

Dr. Michaells said it would bo a
eception to believe that the return
f peace would mean a return of the j
rell-regulated living conditions of
1)14.
“We must face the fact that we
lust carry the sufferings of war into
he period of peace,” he said. “We I
111st prepare ourselves inwardly to!
iear the peace sufferings without}
Tumbling. Our life also after the;
rar will be subject to enforced regu-j
ation. Scarcity of food and other ar-j
ides and high prices will continue.}
