The plans for the constitutional
convention are being scrutinized
closely. The long debate over con-
,stitution and public discussion prior to
an election will. it is believed, give
that movement an impetus that must
be combatted by the single state SEN
timent of the Indian country alone.
Any argument from Oklahoma is re-
scented. 1t is realized that the back

handling the separate state idea. For
this reason it has been determined

as far as possible, the movement. It's
effect, as believed, will be to decrease
popularity of separate state move
ment. In doing this, it will reduce
the vote at the constitutional election.
This is important, as it mutilates the
showing to be made to congress by
the advocates for two states.

FIGHTING CHOLERA:
GERMANY HAS TASK

Berlin, Sept 2. = The spread of
cholera from two localities on the riv-
er Weichsel five days ago to thirty
four cases in twelve localities, extend
ing from the Baltic to the river War
the, $50 miles south, and it's appear
ance in Hamburg, has given an I'M
pleasant thrill to the people of Ger
many, for it may mean a long and
steady fight, as in 1929, to prevent
the disease from getting beyond con-
troll.
In those years it is estimated that
100000 persons died in Russia from
cholera. The Prussian government is
keenly aware of the possibilities of
the danger, which so far is not regard
ed as giving occasion for apprehen-
sion. A committee of the cabinet,
consisting of DR.. Studt, minister of
medical affairs; Herr Won Sudde, min
lister of state, and minister of public
works; Herr Moller, minister of COM
merce and industry and DIR. Won
Bethmann-Holweig, minister of the
interior, has the central direction of
the preventive measures. Numerous
psychologists have been sent into
the infected districts to assist in the
surveillance of persons who have con-
tracted cholera.
Cautionary notices are published in
all the towns and villages within the
affected area.

CHICAGO'S LABOR WAR:
UNION PRINTERS STRIKE

the Typographical Union, Secretary
Hamm of the Typothetae says en-
phatically that he does not know of a
single desertion and that the effect of
the strike here would be overcome in
short order
Following is a summary of develop
ments as viewed by the officers of
Typographical Union No. 16:
Firms in the Typothetae that were
allowed to run with union compost
tors are so privileged either because
they have promised not to aid the op-
ponents of the eight hour day in the
unions present struggle against the
cause they employ only few print
ers and can safely be permitted to
run without interference by the union
Such concessions not being molested
will shield the attitude of eight en-
ployers belonging to the Typothetae
and who have pledged themselves to
remain non-combative until January
1, when the proposed eight-hour day
plan will go into effect in every union
composing room in the country. In
the meantime no house employing
union printers will be allowed to do
work for any of the struck places"
The other side of the situation was
presented by Secretary Hamm of the
employing printers association. He
said:
employers in this controversy feel
confident of success. At present we
have 1855 non-union printers at work
in the plants that the union thought
to tie up and cripple completely.
There are more men on their way to
Chicago from outside places and it
will not be long before the strike will
cease to affect the Chicago Typothetae
members"

Wen are the names of two Chinese

are thirty-six military schools in
China, and from these particularly in
telligent students have been selected
to study the art of war in the mill
tary schools of the principal nations
of the world. Three thousand are

NIT these Chinese studying at West

which it did at the recommendation
of the president and the request of

Chicago, Sept. 2. = An acute stage
has been reached in new labor war
in Chicago. Nineteen of the larger
job printing houses of Chicago were
without union compositors this even
ing, the result of series of strikes
inaugurated by Typographical Union
No. 16 against members of the Chi
cago Typothetae, the purpose of the
strikes being to compel the Typothe-
tae as an organization to accept the
demands of "closed shop" and that
eight hours constitute days work.
Further strikes are expected in case
other houses undertake to do work
for concerns for which the strikes
have begun as the result of the post
ing of notices of an intention to in
augurate "open shop and mine
hours" where it is claimed contrary
conditions had been the rule Pend
ing such assistance to strike affected
firms the strike leaders pronounced
the strike complete and declared the
outcome a matter of endurance, a
spread here or to other cities not be-
ing contemplated for the present at
least. Not counting other employees
in the nineteen printing houses in
volved. printers to the number of
nearly 500 are idle. The strikers
claim that eight large establishments
will remain neutral not accepting
work for houses where strikes are in
progress and that in the eight and
elsewhere $500 members of the union
will be at work helping to supply
funds for strike benefits. Among the
establishments at which the latest
strikes were inaugurated were Poole
Brothers, M. A. Donohue & Co. and
