WHITMAN VETOES
BILL SUSPENDING
N. Y. LABOR LAWS
MEASURE WAS FATHERED
BY MAJORITY LEADERS
IN STATE SENATE.
In Message Accompanying Veto, the
Governor Says Limitations Wisely
Placed Upon Employment of
Women and Children Should
Be Kept in Force.
Especial Correspondence

ALBANY, n. Y, June Am
nouncement that he had vetoed the
Brown bill, designed to authorize the
state industrial commission TO suspend
the operation of the labor laws during
the war, was made by Governor Whit
man today. The measure was intro
duced in the legislature by the ma
jority leader of the senate as one of
the several bills agreed on by the SEN
ate war committee.
Among the requirements of the
present labor law which the industrial
commission, with the approval of the
governor, would be empowered to sus-
pend or modify" the governor set
forth in a memorandum accompanying
the bill, "are those relating to the
wisely placed upon the employment of
women, upon the employment of
minors, and the prohibition against
the employment of very young chill
dren.
1T is of supreme importance that
every man and woman shall be willing
to make every necessary sacrifice in
this great world war in which our
country is to take so cons picuous and
so unselfish a part, but II we are to
attain the greatest measure of eff
cheney in our preparation and in our
prosecution of the war we must not
permit our people who are engaged
in industrial pursuits TO become ap-
prehensive that the standards erected
for their protection viii be set aside,
and we must not permit our Industrial
population TO have cause 70 feel that
the wars burdens and sacrifices may
rest most heavily upon the shoulders
of those least able to bear them.
voluntary and enthusiast service
on the part of our wage earners will
result in a volume of effort and sup
port of far greater benefit TO the
state and the nation than can be de-
rived by forced labor under conditions
and during hours now prohibited by
law

SHY ON TIN CANS.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
CAUTIONS HOUSEWIVES.
Substitutes For Tin and Glass Must
Be Utilized in Preserving Fruit and
Vegetables Wherever Possible.

The United States department of
commerce has recently sent out a
pamphlet on Substitutes for Tin
Cans" that contains considerable val
liable information to those interested
in the canning of fruits, vegetables,
etc. We are told that tin plate is
9S per cent steel and but per cent
tin, and as steel is the backbone of
war the mills have not been able to
keep their customers supplied.
There are abnormal freight condi-
tions thruout the country which makes
delivery uncertain, and there has also
been decreased imports of pig tin so
that. it is stated it Is not surprising
the tin-plate makers cannot supply
the can manufacturers with sufficient
plate to meet the increase in demand
for cans.
1T is therefore imperative" says
the pamphlet, that the available sup
ply of cans be utilized for packing
products that can be preserved only
in tin, and that substitutes be used
for other products wherever practi-
cable. Such containers should be
cheaper than tin, so that the ultimate
benefit from lower costs may offset
the initial expense of the substitution" "
1t is also shown that the price of
glass has steadily risen and has about
reached point where any large extern
sion of its use for food containers is
impracticable. The pamphlet then
urges that fiber and paper containers
be used extensively wherever possible,
and they may or may not be coated
with paraffin.
These containers are made in vari-
Gus sizes and some Of them are air
tight and proof against leakage. They
are light in weight, easily opened and
used but once. Some of them are
being tested by the government to
ascertain their value, and like numer-
out other problems that have arisen
there is little doubt but hat the short
age will be provided for in way that
will prove beneficial after war trou-
bles have disappeared.

MORE VOLUNTEERS
RECRUITING STATIONS STILL IN
NEED OF MEN FOR ARMY.
Those Who Enlist Now Have Better
Chance for Promotion Than Those
Who Come Later by Draft.
Army Recruiting Station,
l705 Lawrence Street,
Denver, Colo. June -. l9l7'


To All Postmasters and Newspaper
Editors in Colorado:
Dear Sir: There has been an alarm
ing decrease in enlistments in the reg
ular army since registration. The idea
Is prevalent that volunteer enlistment
IN the army is no longer possible nor
needed, whereas on the contrary there
is more urgent need for men to fill the
fifty-one regular regiments now being
organized. Five hundred and fifty
men are urgently needed in the infan-
try and field artillery to complete
Colorado's quota of sixteen hundred
before June 80. Valuable time is now
being lost.
All able-bodied unmarried white
men of good character over eighteen
and under forty years of age are elig-
able. First citizenship papers are not
required unless the applicant is a sub
ject of an enemy nation. Enlistments
are for the period of the emergency
only"
Men enlisting now have better
chances for promotion than those who
enlist after the non-commissioned Off
GER positions have been filled. Every
county will be given credit for the
men furnished by it for the regular
army.
upon receipt OF telegram collect
from any public official or commercial
organization addressed ARMY Re
cruiting Officer, Denver" that eligable
men are ready to enlist in the regular
army at any railroad town in Colorado
will arrange transportation to the
nearest regular army recruiting sta
tion.
BY authority of the secretary of war
| urge your active assistance in wide
ly advertising these facts and in Sc
curing Colorado's quota at the earliest
possible moment.

WILLING TO TAKE
 RESPECTABLE WORK
 AT $50 A WEEK

BUTTE, Mont. - (SpeciaD Be nevolent workers of Butte are more willing to help the women of the un- derworld, former residents of Butte's segregated district, which has been closed by order of the attorney gener- al, than they are willing to accept.
 Some of the women have said that they would be willing to accept "re- 5pectabe" work at a salary of $50 week,
 The impression gained is that the women are remaining in Butte not be- cause they are unable to get away but because they are hoping for "let up" of the moral wave which resulted in the closing of the district two weeks ago.
 These are the conclusions reached by workers employed by the Silver Bow Ministerial association as report ed to that body at its meeting today.

CLAIMS NOT
 ALLOWED ON
 ADAMS STREET

Arguments consumed most of the time at the council meeting last even ing, the piece de resistance being dis putes as to the division of expense or the Adams street Improvement the cost of the sewer between Fifth and Sixth avenues and whether or not a refund should be made 70 Councii- man J. l.. Graef for damage sustain ed when the sidewalk entrance to his basement was filled by the contractor who graded Broadway.
 Graef rendered a bill itemizing amounts he believed due him, which totaled $66. After considerable dis cussion the council voted in favor of allowing him a credit of half that amount or $33 on the assessment for sidewalking and grading in front of his place of business, which he refus- ed to pay pending a settlement.
 City Treasurer Romig asked for a ruling on whether or not he should accept payments under protest for the Adams street improvement. This controversy which came up at the last meeting was reopened and af,o- argu- ment the council voted ro ? to allow the assessment to stand. The con- tention of the majority was that the property owners should have speci- fled that they wanted the cross walks and grading of intersections charged to the general fund, and that to open the matter now would mean similar demands for a refund to be demanded on other streets.
 Atty. James, representing J. O. Patton and B. N. Hettel, on behalf of Fifth avenue property holders, for a part of the cost of the sewer, claiming that the city should stand the cost of engineering man hole and lamp hole It was shown that the city had al- ready born $l4O5 out of $275S, or 52 per cent of the cost of the sewer and motion to make the refund was lost. A committee was named to investi- gate the cost of the sewer and report on details.

REGULAR HANDY MAN IS UNCLE'S
 R. R. CONDUCTOR

Conductor Mullin, who handles the tri-weekly mail train from Seward to Mile 40, contends that the O. w. k and N. crews report that they spent | thirty minutes getting the safety pins off the wrappings and putting 'nitie on baby sent as second class passen ger, has nothing on him.
 In addition to keep track of pasSen- gers, freight and mail, between here and the end of the run, Mullin per, forms such little errands as: 1 Depositing money in the bank fol anybody and everybody living along the line.
 Changing pair of ladies shoes fol size larger.
 i Matching a piece of calico for lady living 20 miles out who could not come in but needed two more yards. ] Ordering groceries for folks at various stations.
 I Dropping letters in the box here for Iaborers who ask him to mail this put a stamp on it and bring the bal ance of a two-bit book on the next trip and I'll pay you then. I'm out of change now"
 Leaving orders for meat at the butcher shops, to be filled on the next train.
 Taking money to pay bills at the various stores and bring back a re- eeipt.
 Now and then something happens to add to the joy of the job, which in itself includes making the musherS desist from smoking in case there is a [ lady passenger in the cabooSe, sort ing the mail for every camp, and ac- counting for everybody aboard. Recently an inbound passenger rendered a U. s. pay check for some thing like $lOO in payment of $l.2C fare. This had Mullin guessing for a second, but not for long. He wrote out his personal check for the change and rendered it, only to be scOrnfully repulsed
 "You don't bunk me-" declared the passenger. Cash change or give me back the check and I'll pay later.
 "You pay or get off right here, was the reply. About the time thing; were getting good another passenge' smoothed the troubled waters by cash ing the change check" He inform ed the skeptical chap with the SlOC check that the conductor was not banker but being under bonds was probably reasonably honest and de serving of some consideration.
 But so far Mullin has not had the experience mentioned in the follow ing report filed by F. D. Dice, Oregon ! Short Line conductor running bt tween Pocatello and Green River:

SCHOOL AT TREADWELL

TREADWELL, Sept. 4.-Although school really opened at Treadwell yesterday it was not until today that it settled regularly to business. The enrolment yesterday was 27 in the lower and 22 in the higher grades, making a total of 49 pupils with probably half dozen more to re- port. While both the teachers are new to Alaska, Miss Mary Anne Makens, teacher of the higher grades, has had considerable experience both in South Dakota and Washington, while Miss Frances F. Franse, teach CT of the lower grades, has also had several years experience in the State of Oregon. her last position being at Marshfield. Both Miss Makens and Miss Franse come to Treadwell highly recommended.

RECORD PRICE FOR FISH

DOUGLAS, Sept. 4.-The Alaska Coast Fish Company saw" the price, 9 cents per pound, paid at Juneau for halibut and went one better this morning when it started the day by buying 10000 pounds, the catch es of the Helen, Pirate and Enter prise, at 9A cents per pound, the highest price ever paid for hali but in this locality. The company which was been making heavy ship ments on every southbound steamer during the past few days, expects to have 125 boxes for the Seattle when she sails late tomorrow. The fishermen are eminently satisfied with the fancy prices they are re- ceiving for their catches and, as the company is willing to pay the ad- vanced price for all that is brought in, there is no reason for believing that everybody concerned is not making money and lots of it.

DOUGLAS, Alaska, September A. We the school bells love to hear, Ringing merrily loud and clear" or words to that effect. The public school opened here this morning short two of the high school teach CTS who are on the way from the south and are due to arrive on an early steamer. Until they arrive Mrs Greene, wife of the superintendent will hear some of the classes and otherwise assist in the work in starting young Americans in the as cent of the stepladder of fame.
 While no actual count of the pu pills in attendance this morning was made, the number is estimated a., 175 with probably fifteen or twenty more to start later and when the season for work is over. Last year the total enrolment was 252 but it is not expected that number will be reached this year by from 50 to 60. But with one more teacher this than last year, the school should be qualified for better work and more satisfactory results than ever before.
 The Executive Committee of the Parent-Teacher Association is arrang- ing for reception to the teachers Friday afternoon when a regular "so- cial session" will be held.
