Alabama as the second state in the
production Of coke The coke pro-
duction in the state last year amount

MINISTERS MAY
WORK FOR EARLY
CLOSING HOURS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. July big
the Fart Of the retail clerks and the
late shoppers is only one of the good
effects OF early Saturday closing. stat
ed George David Reckel. president of
the newly organized Progressive Re
tail Clerks association.
Preachers should be our friends"
BeckeI said. II know for fact that
many salespeople are too tired fol-
lowing hard Saturday nights work
TO go to church Sunday morning"
Payday other than Saturday would
be desirable to the clerks BeckeI de-
clared. Because. he stated. working
mems wives would not shop Saturday
night if their husbands were paid Fri
day or Monday. or som eweek day
other than Saturday.
Abolition OF Saturday night work is
the sole aim of the Retail Clerks as
ISOLATION at present. Night work is too
hard on the salespeople, taking them
down in weight, causing nervous trou-
bic and injuring the health generally
according TO Beckel, himself a shoe
salesman. The association hopes to
accomplish it's object peaceably, with
out threats Of strike or demands of
any kind likely 90 antagOnize the en-
ployers It's officers are hopeful of sue
ceeding in abolishing Saturday night
work this summer. Already many of
the largest department stores have an
nounced closing at s o'clock Saturday
during summer But IL is all-around-
| the-year closing that the clerks asso-
| citation wants.
I'm fact" said Beckel, "a majority
| Of the employers and managers favor
early Saturday closing but a few
| backward storekeepers will not agree
to ii and practically force the others
| to keep open also. We hope to win the
backward ones over. The association
merely gives the clerks the natural
strength Of organization"
1t is reported that the employers
| hurriedly called a secret meeting to
consider the clerks organization. Re-
ports that the Central Labor union
and Trades Council were making over
lures to the clerks tended to brighten
| the employers. Some of the officers of
| the clerks are unfavorable TO affilia-
| ing with the organized labor move
ment and hope to obtain satisfactory
| adjustment of their demands without
| outside help.
Early closing and shorter hours is
a spirit in the air" said Pres. Beckel.
mo Saturday night work has got
/ to come. In years gone by clerks
worked every night. Employers who
at first said that doing away with this
| system would not now go back TO the
! old system. 1t will be the same with
| Saturday night closing"
| The movement for no Saturday
night work. although merely local at
| present, is expected to spread through
| out Indiana.

ice AND COAL GO UP;
MERCURY GOES DOWN
Lowest Temperature For Past % Days
Recorded Sunday-Ice
is Scarce.

The consumer seems to be doomed
TO get it, both coming and going
Ice has gone up 5 cents q hundred
pounds, and coal is up 40 cents a
ton. There is a possibility that the
ice price will be given another boost
and probability that the price of
coal will increase as it has been in
creasing during the past four months
at the rate Of 10 cents per month.
The price Of soft coal will be more
flexible than hard, which will increase
in cost as people are laying in a
stock for winter, and the stock is
becoming more exhausted. Accord
ing to Fred Loughman, of the LOugh-
man and Loughman firm, a scarcity
of hard coal is probable.
The increase in prices on ice is
due TO the scarcity and to the increas-
ing hot weather which increases the
demand, say the dealers.
The temperature took a fall Sun
day, dropping to rs as a maximum
with 65 as a minimum. This makes
the lowest temperature recorded not
only for the month but FOR the last
% days. A record has been estab-
lished this year for the longest time
! this season Of the year without rain
fall. Although at later dates in the
summer a longer period has elapsed
without rain, this draught makes q
record for this season.
