FOOD SAVING is
FIRST MEASURE
IN MAKING WAR

Day by day we come into a fuller
realization of the fact that we are
at war. Our industries are being
changed from peace to war needs.
Hundreds of thousands of workers all
over the country find the war enter
ing into their daily lives through
changes in occupation.
Food saving was the first great
war measure to touch every Ameri-
car home. Many Americans do not
yet realize how necessary this econ
omy is. They continue their old
schemes of liberal living in the be-
lief that others will do the saving,
they excuse themselves from this ma
fional service be ,ause they see 9TH
ers who are still wasting. But the
necessity for economy in food is the
most definite thing about the war.
There is just so much food in the
world, there is not enough to go
around among the allied nations. We
have the balance of food. Other
nations are helping us fight the bat
tie for democracy. We must share
our food with them 1t would be
possible to write reams of advice and
suggestions from this text, but there
is really nothing more to be added to
it. Those are the plain facts. Those
are the reasons for economizing.

CRIMINAL AUTOISTS

Last Sunday afternoon some one
driving an Oakland automobile ran
down boy riding bicycle on the
road to Monroe. The chauffeur
speeded on, not stopping to see
whether the boy was hurt.
Effort should be made to appre-
bend that chauffeur to the end that
he may be held up to the contempt
and execration of the public.
A truck driver for the Union
Transfer saw the boy and wheel in
the road later and picked both up
and brought them to police head
quarters here. The boy was taken
to his home. He is not thought Sc
riously injured. The boy was Walter

STATEMENT ABOUT STRIKES in
MONTANA AND ARIZONA MINES

of the international of the American
Federation of Labor will be able to
find an excuse for contributing to
their appeal.
The International Union of Mine,
Mill and Smelter Workers, having
jurisdiction over the miners in Butte,
Montana, is chartered by the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, as there
is local in Butte, Montana, to
which all underground workers who
desire to attach themselves to a
iona tide organization can become
members, moral or financial support
given to the above described dual or
CARNATIONS is donated to prevent
and destroy bona fide organization
of the American Federation of La
Dor.
The answer of the men and wo-
men of the bona fide unions to this
appeal should not be. in dollars, but
in a ringing rebuke and warning to
those who make the appeal that if
they expect assistance from the bona
fide labor movement they must take
their place in it's ranks and prove
they are worthy of it's support.
Arizona
The situation at Globe and Miami,
Arizona, is practically the same. Lo-
Gals No. 60 and No. 70 of the In
ternational Union of Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers have been estab-
lished in those camps for many years.
On July 2, 1917, after every honor
able effort to secure a conference
with the operators to discuss their
just demands, these unions acting
jointly with all craft unions, put into
effect a referendum vote to strike,
but the day preceding the l. w. w.
who, through their usal tactics had
secured a small following, without
presenting demands or asking for a
conference, called strike and now
ask bona fide labor for financial sup
port.
The purpose should be plain to all
members of the American Federation
of Labor. They should know what
the effect would be should their
union call a strike and dual or
ganization call strike at the same
time and present different demands.
The only possible results can be
confusion, the ultimate aim destruc-
ton. We want to warn all or
gained labor not to be deceived by
the contemplate falsehoods of this
movement which claims that it is
independent and cooperating with
the international, for such stories are
only told to fitch legitimate unions
out of their treasures, and your
own funds are then used to bring
about your destruction.
This is the well-known policy of
the l. w. w., which is being carried
out to letter in Butte, Globe and
Miami.
The striking miners of Globe and
Miami of the International Union of
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers of
the A. F. of l.. are fighting for
the recognition of bona fide union
ism. The metal mine workers"
OF the |. w. w., so-called, are striv-
ing for its destruction.
We will leave it to you which
one is worthy of your support.

TO DOUBLE OR

They Are the One Thing the

the Secretary

Washington, Aug. 20--The immediate
expansion of the building facilities OF
the United States to double or treble the
output of destroyers during the next
eighteen months was the object of con
ference to-day between Secretary Daniels
and representatives of twenty-five or
more ship and engine builders If we
get what We want, the secretary. said,
the United States will have more de-
stroyers than any other power. They
are the one thing the submarine fears.
The secretary indicated that all de-
stroyers the builders could produce would
be ordered, and every effort of the de-
partment will be bent upon speeding up
a large number of contracts now pend
ing. Secretary Daniels said no additional
submarine chasers would be ordered at
present. Chasers are valuable for harbor
and inshore patrol work, but the de-
stroyers are far superior for these duties
and have in addition sea going qualities
which make them of far greater value
in all ways than small chasers. No fig
ures have ever been made public of the
number of destroyers now building, Sec

TROOP MOVEMENTS.
Railroads Prepare for the Transport of a
Great Body of Men.

New York, Aug. 20.--Plans for tn.
most important troop movement ever at
tempted in this country, involving the
transportation of 6S7 900 men, are being
perfected by the American Railway asso-
citation at the request of the federal gov.
made here last night by Fairfax Harri-
son, chairman of the railroads war
board
"The movement of troops from the va
viii start Sept. 3" said Mr., Harrison,
"and between that date and Sept. the
railroads will complete the entrainment
of 100000 men.
1T is expected that second move
ment of 100000 men will begin Sept
Is, continuing for four days, and third
movement of the same size on Oct. 8.
"Some conception of the task which
eonfronts the association in the prepa-
ration of schedules that will assure the
prompt movement of these troops with
out interference with regular traffic may
be CLEANED from the fact that 6,229 men,
made up in 366 trains, with as many To-
comotives and train crews, are required
to move one field army of $4,000.
"The railroads have also been asked to
supply transportation for $4,000 sol
1iers of the National Guard to their
training camps. This has already been
started and will continue in increasing
volume until all have meen moved"

persistent disagreement with the official
head of the navy, in time of .sr. of

with regret, tender my resignation as

McFeeters this afternoon was in con-
sultation with Judge 2. S. Stanton, the
presiding judge, with regard to the ad.
visibility of such a move, and Mr.. Nc
Feeters' action will be governed by the
judges attitude. Ordinarily there would
be no consideration of a special grand
jury with the regular term of court so
near, but inasmuch as The state will wish
TO present as witnesses soldiers of the
18th u. S. cavalry stationed at Fort
Ethan Allen and the uncertainty of army
life, the states attorney deemed it wise
TO call the situation TO the attention Of
the attorney general. H. g. Barber, who
in turn instructed him to take up the
matter with the judge.
Another development in the case is
the request of Private Robert Warm,
who is held as a material witness. that
an attorney be assigned him. Ii is
learned Warm was born in Germany,
came here some years ago, and took the
steps necessary to acquire citizenship.
An investigation by States Attorney Me-
Feeters shows Warns record in his home
town not of the best, but nothing against
him is found in his military record.
