FATHER WRITES POEM
ABOUT TRACK MEET

Charles Thomas, 407 North Twenty
first street father of Henry Thomas,
a pupil in the Garfield school has
submitted to the principal, Mr. Heir
onimous, the poem given below IN
connection with the fled meet which
takes place tomorrow.
The poem has aroused considerable
interest among the boys OF the school
who will participate in the contest.
Don't forget tomorrow is the big field
meet,
The Purple and the White are going
to compete.
When it comes to the hurdles just
watch the White
You may think I'm fooling but We'll
show you all right.
The hundred yard dash, we can win
in a walk;
! may be mistaken but that is the talk.
Just take Glen Carver; he can run
like a deer.
The PUPPIES haven't a boy who could
beat him in a year;
The high jump, oh my; it will be a
cinch-
We got kind who can do six feet in
a pinch.
Don't forget Dick Vessel, he can
jump a bit,
The way he'll win the high and vault
will surely make hit.
All the other events will be easy as
pie,
We won't let the Puppies have even a
tie.
Charley. Kenneth and Homer are
three more in the game;
Richard, Donald and Jack and none
of them are lame.
! could name at least a dozen all
trained and eager to start,
! could tell you all their names but
really haven't the heart.
The Whites will win the pennant, we
have known 1t all along,
Don't be down-hearted Puppies, just
try again, we'll, solong.

PRIVATE BREEDING
POND affected BY
OPENING OF SLuICE
Editor The Palladium:

Editor The Palladium:
Dear Sir: A story in your last
nights paper states that through the
carelessness OF some OF the members
in opening the sluice box Of our breed
ing pond south Of the city, the Wayne
County Fish and Game Protective AS
sociation has lost all but forty of its
many thousand bass. The article also
states that these bass were secured
for breeding purposes by seining the
streams of the county under permit
issued under the authority of the state
fish and game commissioner.
The facts are these: There is pond
near the pond of the association which
has been leased and operated for two
or three years by some individual
fishermen of this city, as a breeding
pond. This pond is not connected
with the ownership, control, operation
or management Of it's affairs. / am in
formed that these men have raised
many small bass which have been
planted in the streams of the county,
doing work along the same lines as
our organization has done. When the
pond was drained a few days ago
some or the pass were loIL SLTduuSu
and died, though many Of them were
saved.
In order that the members of our
association interested in the work we
are doing may not be misinformed,
respectfully ask that you give this let
ter publicity in your paper today.
Our local hatchery is one of the most
efficient, one of the best located and
best equipped in the state outside of
the state hatcheries and those of the
Marion County Fish and Game Pro-
tective Association. We have a great
many parent bass in our pond now, all
in healthy condition. They are clean
ing more than a dozen nests already
preparatory to spawning. We feel sure
that this season we will raise many
thousands Of small mouth black bass,
which will be liberated this all into
he fishing streams of Wayne County.
Our parent bass were all caught on
hook and line by members of the or
ganization and donated to the pond.
Very very truly,
JOHN F. HOLIDAY,
Secretary Wayne County Fish and
Game Protective Association.

ROCKEFELLER'S INDUSTRIAL
PLAN OUTLINED AND ACCEPTED

Pueblo, Colo. Oct. 2.-CollectIve
bargaining, insured by contract
signed and sealed for a term of years,
was promised today by Iohn ID.
Rockefeller Jr.. to the employees of
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company.
The contract was embodied in the
industrial plan submitted by Mr.
Rockefeller at meeting of the Off
GERS of the company and grievance
representatives from the various coal
camps. The plan carries guarantee
with members of any union but
does not provide for recognition of
the United Mine Workers of America.
The industrial system outlined at
the conference is looked upon as the
Rockefeller answar to the demands
of the United Mine Workers-de-
mands which in 1913 led to one of
the most bitter conflicts in the his
tory of the country. Mr.. Rockefeller
himself has steadfastly maintained
that his plan is not an attack upon
unionism, but that it is broader and
more OemOcratlc tnan the system ad-
vocated by the miners organization.
The Rockefeller plan-formulated
by Mr.. Rockefeller and w. l.. Mac
kenZie King, in collaboration with OPP
Grating officials of the company-is
based upon the mediation system al
ready in operation. The outline of
the plan submitted to the conference
is divided in four general sections:
/. Representation of employees and
the manner of their selection.
2. District conferences, joint com
mittees and joint meetings.
3. The prevention and adjustment
of Industrial disputes.
4. Social and Industrial better
ment.
The proposal also contains mem
orandum of agreement between the
company and its employees.
The miners at each camp are to
elect representatives on basis of one
for every $50 wage earners. Each
camp is entitled to at least two rep
resentatives.
For mediation purposes the com
pany's camps are divided into five dis
tricts-The Trinidad district, the
