SALOONS OF TERRE HAUTE
CENTER OF CORRUPTION.
DECLARED JUDGE
ANDERSON

In pronouncing sentence on over
100 men, including the mayor of Terre
Haute, Ind, for conspiracy in cleo
tlon frauds, Judge Anderson of the
United States District Court passed
sentence as well on John Barleycorn.
He said:
My notion is that the saloon will
have to CO.. believe that the time
Will come when the people will rise
up and smash the saloon, at least as
we have il now. The evidence in this
case showed that the saloons were
the center of nearly all the corruption
in the election at Terre Haute."

LLOYD GEORGE ASKS
TRADE UNIONS AID
Urges Rules Be Relaxed to
Allow Greater Production
of Munitions.

LIVERPOOL. June 4. Continuing his
campaign for the organization OF the
n1unition trades of the country and
the speeding up Of the output OF shells
and other war materials required by
the army, David Lloyd George, the new
Munition Minister, addressed meet
ings here to-day OF employers and
workmen.
lie urged upon the workmen that for
the duration of the war union regula-
tons should be suspended so that every
available man and women could be en-
ployed in the necessary work.
"If every trade unionist," Mr.. Lloyd
George told the workmen, "were
brought back from the front, and II all
of them worked to the utmost limits
of human endurance, there would not
be enough labor to produce what the
government is asking to have produced
during the next few months"
Mr.. Lloyd George added that as gov
eminent red tape had been cut. the
trade unionists almost must relax
their rules. The country, he said, was
demanding as matter of right and
not as a matter Of appeal that every
one of it's citizens should do his best,
and he did not believe that there was
any objection TO it being made legal
right and duty.

Deputies to-day discussed a proposed
law transferring from the auxiliary

of industries manufacturing war ma

the withdrawal from work on which
skill and experience are needed 10 COM
plete contracts for the government.
1t is pointed out in the protest that
many men able to fight and who can
easily be replaced are driving automo-
bies attached 20 government depart

proposed TO leave skilled workmen 10
make shells and guns and bring back
others from the front more useful in
the manufacture OF war munitions
and replace them by unskllled men
now in the auxiliary service.
