BAKERS MAY ORGANIZE

An attempt will be made this week
to organize the bakers of Richmond.
Joseph Schmidt announced this at the
labor forward meeting last night. He
will return Tuesday to take charge of
the work. He said in organizing the
bakers he would no. only. benefit those
who make bread but also those who
eat bread by having it made under
sanitary conditions. Eight hours ought
to be sufficient time for any man or
woman to make living but it takes
organization for workingmen to &C
complish this, he said.

So we have not learned it. Perhaps
after all good will come of the high
prices. 1t is not bad idea for peo-
pie to learn how little they can live
on, instead OF figuring on how much
they can buy.
AS matter of fact, the way here
suggested to reduce the cost Of living
in short, recognize that there is
such thing as the cost of high living
as well as the high cost of lfying-is
about the most efficacious remedy
now at the disposal of the ultimate
consumer. The day of strict ethics is
not yet; laws can do only little.
