LABOR LEADERS ADMIT
FAILURE OF \. Y. STRIKE

New York. Oct a. Tacit admis-
sion of the failure of the general
sympathetic strike in New York IN
behalf of the striking street car
men WAS made in a report to CON
ference of labor leaders, which dis
cussed the general situation.
No decision as to further efforts
to call out all unionists in sympathy
with the strikers was taken and
there was no formal admission that
the strike plan had collapsed.
Police headquarters announced
that a canvass made by policemen
showed that only 408 men had re-
sponded to the call for a general
strike.

TO IMMENSE EXPENSE IN
RECRUITING GUARDS

Washington, Oct. 9.--Reports
made public today at the war de-
partment show it cost $25, 700 last
month to recruit 372 men in New
York for the national guard in the
federal service. This startling ex-
perience has convinced army off
GERS here that the government will
be forced to devise means where
by recruiting can be accomplished
for less money.
Not only is the number of re-
cruits obtained in New York small
In proportion to the amount OF
money expended, but 1t is expected
other states will show similar huge
expenditures with similarly small
totals of accepted men. During one
week in New York only forty-six re-
cruits were obtained.

FLOOR PLANS OF THE PRO
POSED NEW HIGH SCHOOL

The designs shown in these col
umns are typical Of the modern
school which has gradually evolve
in the last few years to meet the
requirements of cities having to
provide for approximately 500 pu-
pills. These schools are a combina-
ton OF manual training and aea-
demic courses. Certain details must
be worked out for the individual
requirements OF different cities. The
illustration given here is called the
ground floor plan and marked "A"
and is the lower floor of the build
ing. This floor is only a few feet
below the level OF the ground. The
windows and light appearing in
same being exactly equal to that of
the other floors. On the left you
will find the boys departments and
their separate entrance. their lock-
ers. toilets and manual training. On
the right, the girls departments and
room for the gymnasium. Note
should be taken OF the fact that the
gymnasium is so located that either
the boys or the girls can use same
without coming into contact with
each other. The running track Of
the gymnasium is on a level with
this ground floor and the main
floor Of the gymnasium drops down
some ten feet lower. with stairways
from both boys and girls sides 10
this main floor level

The first floor plan, marked u
embraces the different laboratories
with lecture room, various class
rooms. commercial department, Of
fees for the board of education,
SUPERINTENDENT of school and the
main study hall and library adjoin-
ing. BY studying this plan you may
easily see the direct communication
from these rooms to the straight
corridor and the easy access to the
stair As in all modern schools, you
can note that all OF fine rooms are
lighted from one side only, which
has been accepted as the correct
method in up to date school build
ings.
The second floor plan, marked
&C" has ten class rooms, boys and
girls toilets, rest room for emer-
gencies and the main floor Of the
auditorium, with stage and dress
ing rooms. BY the use OF sliding
doors an extension can be made
across the corridor whenever the
need arises for an unusually large
production. From the corridors
stairways on either end lead direct
" to the balcony above, shown as
the Balcony plan. and marked I'd.
Notice should be taken Of the fact
that the entire auditorium and the
gymnasium below are entirely free
from posts or columns. The light in
this arrangement should be almost
perfect and under all reasonable
conditions the acoustics should be
as good as it is possible to secure.

FOR AN INTERURBAN LINE

J. w. Musser, of Salt Lake City, is
in Blackfoot making some of the pre-
liminary arrangements for extending
the electric road from Preston into
Snake river and up the valley on both
sides fthe river. This part of the
country is to be served by company
to be known as the Pocatello Trac-
tion & Interurban Railway
Mr.. Musser's work is to interest a
large number of residents and prop
erty owners in small amount each,
of the capital stock, and the money
so raised is to be used for making
preliminary surveys of the project.
A great many men of Pocatello, Shell
ley and Idaho Falls have subscribed
500 each, and he is presenting the
matter to Blackfoot people and farm
ers along the proposed route. Mr..
Musser states that he has room
at James Duckworth's home and ex-
poets to be in this civinity for sew
eral weeks.

BLACKFOOTS NEW
PRINTING HOUSE
Arranged for Efficiency First.
Foundation That is Different

The national organization of print
system SO that all work shall be re-
duced to the greatest possible degree
of efficiency, and since The Idaho
Republican joined and began par
| Iticipating in what they call efficiency
| tests, it has been learned that what
| has been called a well-arranged Of
| flee, what visiting printers at our
plant said was good and we'll arrang-
| ed is not in all respects the best.
These things were discovered by max
ing tests in every day work. 1t was
! found that the foreman, the reporter
and the editor make a good many
trips to the linotype, and that if the
building were erected to have the
linotype located in the best place for
saving steps it would have to be
where the thick partition is. A tab
ulated report was obtained by placing
hand numbering machine by the
linotype and every time one of these
men had occasion to go to the limo
type he tapped the numbering ma
chine to leave record in the column
under his name. This record showed
that in the course of year the fore
man Travelled 13 miles farther than
was necessary if the shop bore the
stamp of approval as to best possible
arrangement. Each week he wasted
steps amounted to a few hundred
yards. Each year they Appropriated
13 miles, and this was reproductive
labor BY the same test it was found
fyaunIn6 81 r1i1nC
farther than he should, and all these
trips were non-productive labor. The
editor travelled 26 miles by the same
count.
In the arrangement of the new
building now under construction, the
relative position of the linotype and
other mechanical devices will be such
that the foreman and reporter will
accomplish the same amount, but
make a saving of time and save
travelling that 13 and 21 miles. In
other words, they can be turning all
that wasted energy into productive
service, for somebody. In arranging
the EDITORS room mechanical con-
veyor will be installed to carry the
copy" (manuscript) and proofs
DdCh anu lOILll DSIWOCu CllC oobSINhi
and the linotype as money and sales
slips are carried in large stores. The
saving of 26 miles of travel by the
editor or 60 miles saved for the
three, or the loss of time by turning
it to productive service is one of the
substantial gains to be made. for the
printing service by studying effici-
ency and applying it in the architects
plans in the new building.
One unique feature of the new Re-
publican office will be that a press
weighing three and half tons will
be perched on top of cement pier
nine feet high. Forty-five thousand
pounds of steel and concrete will be
used in the pier, but it will be hol-
low and will have an ordinary vault
door in it and will be the safety
storage vault for the building. In
it can be stored the files and records
of the office as they accumulate for
the next SO years and they will be
protected from light, dust and flames.
The top of the vault will be on a

THE NEW HOME OF THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN

Work is now under way on the
new building to be owned and occu-
pied by The Idaho Republican, and
construction is to be pushed rapidly
to try to have it enclosed before
winter sets in. 1t is expected that
it will be finished, decorated and
ready for occupancy early in 1917.
The plans were drawn by Cannon
& Fetzer, of Salt Lake City, aided
by Mr.. and Mrs. Trego and their
employees and firm of experts in
printing house arrangement in San
Francisco. Construction wilt be
handled by Dahle & Eccles in con-
nection with their contracts for sew
eral other buildings in the same
block. They will handle everything

from excavating to decorating, and
will deliver the keys when it is
ready for the house-warming.
There is to be but little wood in
the building, brick and steel and
glass being used wherever practical,
with cement foundations, hardwood
floors and all as nearly fire-proof as
it seems practical to make it. 1t
will be abundantly lighted, both ma
turally and artifically, and with sub
dued rather than direct light.
1t will have a heating plant, three
sets of fire-fighting apparatus and
the most economical operating sys-
tenn that the management could de-
wise by securing expert advice to add
to experience.

this place, was seriously injured last
Friday riding between Blackfoot and
Basalt in car with David Bybee,
when they ran off high grade at
the rate of Is miles an hour. The
machine struck a telephone pole, and
the sudden stop sent Mr.. Twitchell
thru the wind shield and over a wire
fence. His front teeth were broken
out and he was badly cut about the
face. DR.. Piper was called to at
tend to his wounds, Mr.. Bybee es-
capped withonly torn clothes.

The management of The Republi-
can did not want to build this year,
but had to do it because the building
and ground they have been occupying
have been sold. They are thus forced
to build year or two earlier than
they had intended and before they
had accumulated sufficient building
fund. Arrangements have been made
for the cost Of the building without
placing any incumbrance on the bust
ness, and Mr.. Trego hopes to pull
the treasury into shape to install a
shipment of new modern equipment
at the time of moving into the build
ing and yet keep the building and
business absolutely independent of
financial obligations.

With this foun dation the press will
