LABOR TO JOIN IN
BATTLE OF H. c. OF |.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June IA
Organized labor has been convinced
that the creation OF a food control as
proposed by the administration would
cut the prices of necessities fully
thirty per cent 1t was determined
last night that organized labor will
get behind the administration meas
ures and urge their immediate enact.
ment by congress.
Labor leaders and congressman
conferred last night and Hoover joined
them as he had promised in response
to their invitation. 1t was determined
that an organized effort must be
made to force prices to a level where
the small wage Garner can exist. Fig.
ures were quoted to show that while
flour is selling at SIS a barrel It can
be manufactured for 81 and could and
should be sold profitably at from' IS
to SO.
Other commodities and their prices
were quoted and fair profits named on
them and it was the consensus Of
opinion that concerted action alone
can bring food prices down to a level
where the working man and his FAM
lily can live with any degree Of COM
fort.
At the close CT the meeting the
labor representatives passed the reso
luton which puts organized labor be-
hind President Wilson in his efforts
to secure a control Of food products
and their prices.

The Call is Uroent

The interest in Red Cross activities in Tempe deserves special commenda- tion. The people of Tempe are busy folk and yet from the very first call for work they have responded with genuine loyalty. The generous response to the call for the war fund of S2,S43.05, when only $1 800 was called for shows what concerted efforts will do. The enthusiasm and faithfulness on the part of physicians, nurses and women students of the first aid classes, the energetic and important work accom- plished by the sewing and food con servation committees during the sum mer and the present interest in the community gardening, civilian relief and the knitting of the much needed articles all goes to prove that Tempe people are wide awake to the call of service This includes all groups of people-men, women, boys and girls. This does not mean that interest is confined to a small group of persons, but that all are interested throughout the community
 The officers of the Tempe branch wish to take this opportunity to say to newcomers and to those who have not as yet found the time to work, that your help will be appreciated. There are so many lines of work that you will be able to find something to your taste. Each department is push ing it's own line of activity.
 Various inquiries have come in to the knitting department relative to their work and the urgent need of it that the following communication sub mitted by the secretary will answer all of these inquiries. Harry Welch, sec retary of the Phoenix chapter, in send ing out instructions in August, wrote to the branches as follows:
 We received very urgent call for knitted goods for the soldiers and civ ilians in France. This chapter is re- quired to furnish 300 sets and l believe that this number will be increased to probably double. A copy of the spe- cial bulletin referring to these knitted goods is nclosd. eetaoinshrdlushrdlu goods is enclosed. We are oedering yarns and needles as well as bulletins giving instructions How many sets can we count upon your branch to suppy and about when will they be ready?"
 The bulletin to which MT Welch re ferred to in his letter has incorporated in it a cablegram from Major Grayson. director of the Red Cross in France. His cablegram, which follows. should be read carefully by every citizen:
 Last winter broke record for cold and misery among people here. IneX pressible dread coming winter finding us, without supplies to meet situation here. Urge you on behalf of our sol- diers and those of our allies who will suffer in their frozen trenches. and also thousands of French and Belgian ref ugees and repatriates being returned through Switzerland to France. Every one here looks to America Begin shipping at once 1,500,000 of warm knitted articles already requested. They must come before cold weather. and in view of the shortage of fuel. and other discomforts, they will be of incredible value in both civilian and military relief"
