WASHINGTON, Jaa. 22.-As a re-
suit of ten years experience in tick
eradication the federal officials in
charge of the campaign are con-
WINGED that the hearty cooperation
Of the people themselves is absolute
ly essential to success. The depart
ment of agriCulture's representatives,
i'm the field, therefore, have been
warned of the danger Of beginning
systematic work i'm any county before
public opinion is ready to lend vigor-
ous support TO the enterprise. II fire.
Quontly happens that a few of the
more progressive farmers are earnest
advocates Of ti'k eradication, while
the rest Of the cOmmunitv may be
either Indifferent or actually hostile.
In number of instances in the past
when tick eradication has been be-
gun under these circumstances II has
been found necessary after two or
three years for the federal govern
mont to withdraw its men because
the results of their work were to a
great extent uullifed 10y popular in
difference. To make a success of
eradication all cattle in the county
must be dipped regularly. In prac-
ti,e this is only possible when the
great majority of the people are so
strongly i'm favor of the work that
they will insist upon the enforcement
of the necessary regulations,
Secure Mailing Lists.
Resent Instructions sent out from
Wash IngtOn to the men in charge in
the infested regions directed them to
procure list of voters in any county
i'm which there were manifestations
of local interest in tick eradication.

INCONSISTENCY IN CITY
WORK HOURS DEPLORED
Firemen's Long Labor and
Clerks Short Day Contrasted
by Bureau of Research

A bulletin issued today by the Bureau of
Municipal Research calls attention to the
fact that though policemen and firemen
work for an excessively long time, clerks
and other city employees enjoy an aD-
normally short day"
Hours OF work." says the bulletin. play
very important part in peoples lives; with
many OF us our own hours Of work crowd
out almost every other activity that life
offers with a few the hours Of work OF
others are the major concern. But every
where people are giving thought to this
natter and from many angles from the
standpeint OF health, of safety, OF recrea-
ton, OF parenthood. of profits, OF efficiency,
Of precedent and what not
In the city service there are undoubtedly
many instances of excessively long hours of
vork-fremen, policemen. workers in the
pumping stations. nurses In the hospitals
and few faithful employees. the wheel
horses In almost every Office in the city
government. Some of these work long
hours and for seven days in the week. For
these the administration of city affairs
ought to strive steadily to improve con-
ditions. II is reproach upon our Citizen
\ ship that public service should necessarily
entail an abnormal life.
IF this were a matter of absolute neces-
sie 1t could be perhaps accepted with more
equanimity. But as II is. there is now sheer
injustice worked upon these employees. Ger
lain large classes of the city's employees.
notably the clerical service, enjoy an alb
normally short day-hve and six hours for
1re days in the week and three hours on
saturday being considered a normal days
time. While II should of course be remem-
bered that 1t is results and not mere hours
thst taxpayers want from their municipal
servants, the fact is that In many of the
routine positions in City Hall the amount
81 service given by an employe depends
upon the amount of time he puts In on his
Job. Formal Office hours therefore become
very important indces Of work accom-
plshed
Ut Is entirely thinkable that. taking the
city and county as a whole, the cases of abb
normally long days would be entirely Offset
py the excessively short ones and that in
justices could be eliminated by a readjust-
ment within the service rather than by a
draft upon the taxpayers"

BRITISH MUNITION PLANTS TROUBLES
Sir Edward Carson Declares Labor Leaders Who Fonent
Strikes Should be Charged With High Treason for As
sisting the Kings Enemies.

London, March 2S.-Dr. christopher
Addison. parliamentary under-secre-
tary for munitions, revealed to the
fouse of commons today a grave con-
clifton of strike promotion and what
he described as a deliberate organized
policy Of holding up munitions of war
which, in the opinion of Sir Edward
Carson, who followed him in the de-
ate, might justify the men involved
being charged with high treason for
assisting the kings enemies.
James Henry Thomas, labor mem
Der of parliament for Derby and as
sistant general secretary of the Anal
gamated Society of Railroad Service,
9lso spoke, demanding as responsible
trades union leader that the men
should be put on trial.
The announcement by DR.. Addison
which brought out these opinions was
that six leaders of body calling it
self the Clyde workers committee,
which had been attempting to foment
strikes among munitions workers on
the Clyde, had been removed from the
district by the military authorities
In making the announcement DR. Ad-
olson added that the committee had in
particular attempted to stop work in

factories where large guns We're being
made, and in five cases had succeeded.
The strikes bore no relation to indus
trial conditions, he said, and were de-
Sounced by trades union leaders. The
object of the committee, he explained,
was to compel the government to re-
peal the munitions of war and military
service acts and to remove all limita-
lions upon increases of pay. strikes
cid freedom of action without govern
U1ent control.
DR.. Addison explained further that
the trouble arose on March II, in one
case 1000 men having been brought
out, and from that time on a series of
strikes had occurred under a systemat-
is plan. Finally, the minister of mu-
nitions had requested the military au-
| thorities to remove the delinquents
| under the defense of the realm act.
| The government, DR.. Addison added.
had the support of a majority of the
| munition workers, and he was conf
| lent that 1t might rely upon the sup
| port of parliament and the nation if ii
became necessary to put into force the
| full powers of the executive to main
! tain the production Of munitions to the
fullest extent
