as il he certainly was the choice of

The Governor was decidedly in

HEALEY BUILDING
STRIKE At CRISIS
Superintendent Collins Declares
"0pen Shop" Practically De-
flying Union Men,

Defiance Of the labor unions was
uttered Friday morning by Superin-
tendent Collins, Of the Healey Build
ing, when he declared that hereafter
the construction work on the new
skyscraper will be an open job" and
that any man who applies will be put
TO work If there Is an opening,
whether he is a union or non union
man.
The first step in the warfare against
the unions was taken Friday when
fifteen non union carpenters were
employed in the places Of the men
who went on strike Thursday.
I'VE have tried to deal with the
unions" said Superintendent Collins,
but we have done with them now.
They came to us in a committee ana
declared that they would make the
Healey job either an open or 4
closed job, and they've made an open
Job of 1t
1--WE talked with Mr.. Healey and
Mr.. Morgan and others interested in
the construction Of the building, and
they agree with me that it is time to
break all negotiations with the union
and employ non union men. Here
after this will be an open job. 1t
won't matter to us whether the men
eyed heard of the unions or not"
Mr.. Collins declared the work was
not being hindered to any marked
extent by the strike. The trouble
originated when a non-uniOn painter
was put to work on the building by a
subcontractor. The union painters
went out on strike Tuesday, followed
by two engineers, number of plumb
ers and bricqlayers, and the employees
of the Otis Elevator Company, which
is installing the FITS.

TOLD HER LlFE'S AMBITION
Small Girl Somewhat crudely Elk
pressed Her Desire to Be a
Teacher When She Grew Up.

At one time or another during the
ward school life of a little girl there
prevails the ambition to become a
teacher. Perhaps it is the indisputable
authority possessed by the hand that
yields the ruler or the nonchallant dis
play Of wisdom on topics surround
ed by the most inaccessible difficulties
to the small boy and girl. They will
nearly always tell their ambitions to a
well liked teacher, and one rather sur
prising declaration was given by a
little maid in one of Miss Clara Town
sends room before she became princi-
pal of the James school,
Among the special favors coveted
by the youngsters is the permission
to stay behind after school and clean
the blacRboards. One evening little
girl was given the desired privilege,
and while engaged in the task she
struck up a shy sort of conversation
with Miss Townsend. Finally the
usual confession was made.
When l grow up, am going to be
a teacher" she announced
That so?" pleasantly asked Miss
Townsend. And why do you want
to be a teacher?"
"Well,'' was the rather surprising
answer, "I'll have to be either a
teacher or a lady, and | would rather
be teacher. Indianapolis News.

Growth Of Drug Habit in United States
Alleged to Be Due to Opiates

That SO per cent. of all the cocaine
and morphine manufactured in this
country is used by persons who have
formed the drug habit through physi.
clans prescriptions is the startling
statement made by DR.. L. F. Kebler.
Chief of the Division of Drugs, Depart.
ment of Agriculture. This statement,
concerning the appalling growth of
drug addiction in the United States,
was made by DR.. Kebler in an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study of Alcohol and
Narcotics
DR.. Kebler is quoted by Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent. in
the last 40 years, and that American
medical men were not discriminating
enough in their use of opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients, he
said, is creating thousands of drug
users every year.
ut is very sad thing to say that
our physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use of cocaine
and morphine" said the doctor state
laws are not saving the public from
the grip of the drug habit, and the
American public is sinking tighter
and tighter into the black abyss Of
the morphine and cocaine fiend.
