CLEAN UP WEEK BRINGS
RUSH TO CREAlA TORY MEN

II you think the cleanup fever
is not taking hold just step around
to the office of the crematory de-
partn,ent at the city hall and talk
to the men in charge.
Before 10 o'clock this morning
ever so orders for the removal of
garbage we're received and the pace
is Increasing. The crematory men
are flooded with business and IT,
the present demand continues It
Will take two weeks to catch up
with the orders.
A great many people have re-
ceived the impression that the
crematory department is doing this
work free. This thought should be
banished, as the crematory has a
large and healthy deficit that it is
anxious to wipe out-and cleaning
week is good time to begin, it
is figured. Yet. the department
has not increased rates because of
the rush, and will take care of the
business at the old figures.
The schools have been enlisted
in the cleanup movement and the
teachers have appointed captains
for each block to go from house to
house to notify the people to
that the garbage would be hauled
away free, and accepting this as
the truth there has been some dis
appointment when the city's men
present bill for services.

BUILDING TRADES, PRINTING
CRAFTS AND RAILROADS
FOR FRANCHISES.
BOOKB|NDERS SAY YES
FEDERAL UNION DEMANDS
TERMINAL RATE
CLAUSE.

Organized labor is getting into
the railroad franchise controversy
with vigor. The building trades
men, who have been assured that
union labor at the regular scale will
be employed, feel kindly toward the
admission Of the North Coast and
the Milwaukee without insisting on
the terminal clause in the franchise.
The men connected with the
printing trades also feel kindly
toward r. E. Strahorn, because he
has always treated the men in the
printing crafts with consideration
and used only the labeled work in
his offices.
Then the men in the railroad SER
vice say that the Milwaukee is one
of the best and fairest roads in the
country to work for, that everything
on the road is unionized and that
the Milwaukee rarely has trouble
with it's men. For this reason, and
for the further fact that the more
roads the city has the more jobs
there will be for railroad men, the
union men in railroad work look
on the admission of the Milwaukee
and the North Coast with favor.
Feeling resentful because the un-
skilled labor represented by the two
federal unions have been omitted in
the list of unions that are to be rec
ognized in the building of the pro-
posed terminals, if the roads are ad-
mitted, the two federal unions,
11.624 and 1929. are out fighting
the franchise and demanding that
terminal rates be made condition
for the entry of the roads.
At special meeting of the book
binders union held last night there
was a detailed discussion of the
railway franchises. after which
vote was taken, which was almost
unanimous in favor of admitting the
two roads without the terminal rate
requirement. The bookbinders
spoke of the treatment accorded by
Strahorn to the men in the allied
printing trades. which caused
kindly feeling for the North Coast
president. The industrial advan-
tages to the city of the new rail-
roads were the chief factors in the
discussion.

Is there graft in the bill OF
S255 for street car tickets, allowed
last week at the city hall for the
month of February?
OF course there is. That car
ticket bill is run up largely to
spend money with the car COM

ployes, who in number of cases
should pay their fare the same as
any other citizen working for
