Machinists'
Notice.

The machinist' strike at the
Black & Clawson Co., is NOT set
tied.
The strike is still on despite the
efforts Of the committee and the
Machinists' Local No. 241 to effect
settlement. This firm can only
settle the strike with Local No. 241
and not with the few scabs who
were stampeded out of the shop
when the molders at that place
walked out short time ago. Had
ii net been for these few scabs this
shop would be running satisfactory
today, not only to the machinists,
but to the firm as we'll.
AS it Is, this strike will be car
ried on until these scabs change
their minds about scabbing and
cease to fight the machinists or
ganizatiop, whose sale purpose is
to bring about fair wages and fair
working conditions in this and
other shops.
The radical action of this firm
against organized labor is due to
the fact that, not withstanding
the benefits derived even by these
sea IS from organized labor in the
nine hour day, time and one half
for over time, and fifteen to TWEEN
ty per cent increase in wages, that
they are still, willing 10 continue to
scab on organized labor and stick
to the firm in their effort to oppress
labor i'll every way possible.
Is it any wonder that these men
are becoming more and more de-
spised by machinists who are striv-
ing for fair working conditions and
fair wages The way of the scab
is ever getting harder in Hamilton.
1t is plain to be seen by the
growth of the machinists and other
labor organizations in Hamilton
that it is but short time until the
union book and union card will be
in such demand that ii will De un-
wise fer any man to be without one
and we would advise that these
scab machinists at the Black and
Clawson Co, ct themselves right
with organized labor while the op
portuntty still presents itself, fer
remember Mr.. Scab, the eyes Of all
workingmen in this city are upon
you and you are becoming more
and more unpopular, day after day.
The Machini its Union is grow
ing and becoming stronger every
day and are prepared to carry this
strike on indefinitely, or un il a
satisfactory settlement is reached.
The 6,m recently discharged
their old superintendent, one H
Leroy Stacks. This. no doubt,
was his reward for the faithful per
formance of duty in the campaign
of this firm against organized
labor, and especially in the dis
charge of union men for their ac-
tivity in behalf of organized labor.
The firm has employed new
superintendent, no doubt with hope
of getting mere production out of

We In Louisiana are far short
Of producisg enough meat, lard,

of the more important live stock

Under war conditions it is ex

exports will be increased and
prices Of food and feeds will be
still higher than at the present

ly important that all farmers,

give serious thought to those

SUMMARY OF THE REA-
SONS FOR INCREASING
Production and Conserving
Food Supplies in Louisi-
ana, and Some Suggestions
AS to What We May Do to
Avoid q Food Shortage.

Every reliable report indicator
that there is a shortage in thu
worlds supply OF food stuffs, par
ticularly of meat, potatoes and tbe
grains we use most largely fol
food and for sustaining our domes
tic animals, The wheat crop oil
Argentine, the largest wheat pro
ducing country IN South America
is practically q failue. The Cana
dian government has already
made contracts for the entire crou
Of Canada for 1917 The wheat
crop Of Australia is too remote to
be Of service to this country, and
on account of the diminished ton
mage for transportation, will be
less available to European coun
tries. The inability Of Russia to
deliver wheat in quantities antici
pated to her allies has been one OF
the greatest disappointment Of
the war to them. In the United
States, the entire wheat crop has
been severely damaged by winter
freezes. 1t ia reported that in
some regions from twenty to thir
ty per cent Of the crop has been
completely destroyed.
Throughout the largest gram
producing sections of the United
States the labor supply has been
materially diminished. Many OF
the farm hands have gone into
Canada under contract for high
wages to produce food for the
Canadian government; many have
gone into the munition plants of
the United States and Canada.
The enlistment Of our young men
for military service will further
deplete the available labor. There
Is scarcely possibility, therefore,
that enough grain can be prodac
to meet all domestic demands and
meet our obligation for helping to
feed the allied armies at war, and
at the same time continue to fur
nish the South with the large sup
ply of food and feed stuffs that
they previously consumed.
