TWO SIOUX CITY
PRINTERS MAKE
DREAM COME TRUE

Old Missouri river pirate printers,
and perhaps others, will be interested
in the following human nature" story
taken from last weeks issue of the
Sioux City Union Advocate:
"The longest river journey ever un-
dertaken by any Sioux Cityan will be
staged by Ed Kaspar, machinist on the
Morning Journal, and Raymond Clark,
who operates the head letter machine
on the same paper. They left Monday
noon over the Burlington railroad for
Fort Benton, Mont. Before leaving
they had shipped a knock-down 49,
foot flatboat to Fort Benton to use in
their river trip.
This is really the realization of the
average printers day dream. For
wears most of the craft have been
steamboating in the printshops, but
few ever connect with enough kale to
get any farther than Stone Park. Mr..
Kaspar and Mr.. Clark have been plan
ming this trip for about six years. and
finally completed all the necessary
arrangements. After arriving at Fort
Benton they plan to get their boat in
the water without delay, and will start
on their 2,000-mile cruise down the
Missouri river to Sioux City.
"The plans of the river trip are
most numerous. They expect to eX-
plore, to fish, to hunt, to do any and
all things that will make the trip ex-
citing. Mr. Kaspar is one of the best
game shooters in northwest Iowa, and
expects to have some rare sport while
on the trip. While Mr.. Clark is not so
proficient as his river companion at
the art of shooting, he expects to do
most of the angling and exploring.
1t will take about seven weeks TO
make the entire trip. and should be the
event of both of their lives. The Ad-
vocate wishes them the best luck pos
sible in their river cruise. and hopes
to be able to recommend both Mr.. Kas-
par and Mr. Clark to the navy depart
ment at Washington for use on the
submarines at the completion Of their
trip"

PHOTO

Seventy-five delegates attended the
Photo Engravers convention at Roch-
ester. n. Y. Upwards of 5000 jour
neymen engravers were, represented.
The photo engravers point with pride
to the fact that their craft is 9S per
cent organized. Trade conditions are
reported to be excellent.
Eight hours is the universal work
day of the engravers. Those of that
craft who work nights are on shifts of
only forty-two hours a week. The
draft has depleted the ranks of the
craft considerably, and it is proposed
to appeal to ambitious young men to
qualify as photo-engravers, holding up
to them the easy work, short hours and
good pay afforded by that industry.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Sept. 14.-The

Denver labor bulletin., 1917-09-15

Herbert George, he of Citizens AL
lance notoriety, is doing his level best
to get some trouble started in Denver
SO that he can have an excuse for
lcvying tribute upon employers, busi-
ness men and manufacturing concerns.
Reference to Herb s program has been
made in previous issues of The Buiie-
tin-but just now comparatively few
men are taking him seriously.
Herb has organized-on paper
what he terms "The Employers Asso-
ciation," and is flooding the mails
with appeals for financial aid in put
ting down phantom insurrection OF
organized labor in Denver.
Strikes and Traitors"
His latest proclamation. at least the
last one to reach The Bulletin Office,
is headed, "Are Strikers Traitors ~
He seeks to combine trade unions and
l. w. w. ngitators as one and the
same. and terms them all traitors to
the nation. Herb is gricvcd because
union men and women demand an in
creased wage to meet the ascending
cost of living, and AYERS that IL n suffi-
cicnt number join his "association"
and give up the money he can put n
stop to this cussed treason" on the
part of union men and women.
Must Speed EN- Up.
His latest manifesto stresses the
"speeding up of workers, in order
that the employer can grind out big
ger profits. Because trades unionists
refuse to "speed up" to the last ounce
of energy, Herb brands them as trai-
tors, and subjects for punishment de-
creed traitors in war time.
Then, further along, Herb expresses
great gobs of grief over the way in
which Colorado labor ignores the state
industrial commission when going
after wage increases and better work
ing conditions, and is further dis
tressed because protective labor laws
are not set aside to permit further

THE BELLY AND THE MEMBERS

One fine day it occurred to the
Members of the Body that they were
doing all the work and the Belly was
having all the food. So they held a
meeting. and after a long discussion,
decided to strike work till the Belly
consented to take its proper share of
the work. So for a day or two, the
Hands refused to take the food. the
Mouth refused to receive it. and the
Teeth had no work to do. But after
day or two. the Members began to
find that they themselves were not in
a very active condition; the Hands
could hardly move, the Mouth was all
parched and dry, while the Legs were
unable to support the rest. So thus
they found that even the Belly, in its
dull. quiet way, was doing necessary
work for the Body and that all must
work together or the Body will go to
pieces.
Moral-"We must all work in unison
to be successful"

HOOVER TO SAVE
MILLIONS IN COST
SAYS WHOLESALE PRICES
MUST COME DOWN.
Estimates Consumers of Bread Will
Pay s3O.OOO,0OO Per Month Less,
and Sugar Prices Cut 100000
For the Same Period.

Food Administrator Hoover is con-
fident that the price of flour will drop
SO barrel as soon as the -four from
government controlled wheat reaches
the market.
Mr.. Hoover estimates that this price
drop will amount to a saving of $780,
100000 a month to the American peo-
pie. He also predicts a decrease in
the price of sugar amounting to a
saving of $4,000, 900 a month.
Under the law, the food admins
tration has no direct control over re-
tail prices" said an official of the
body "In any event, before retail
prices come down, wholesale prices
must come down. Manufacturing
costs and middlemen's profits must be
reduced and speculation positively ex-
cisod. In order to gain results the
industries must be organized to CO
operate toward these needs. This VIII
take more than the thirty days that
the food administration has been in
existence.
Twenty Commodities Concerned.
"As twenty commodities must be
covered to accomplish this, consider
able has already been done in the hold
ing during the past month of confer
enCeS Win lne lehulilE men III tht uiS
tributing chains of at least ten OF
these commodities. Results must be
arrived at as the result of such con-
ferences in order not to upset the
industrial fabric of the country.
$50 far the wheat, -four and sugar
industries have been organized. The
regulation on wheat went into effect
September 10, and that Of -four a few
days later. As soon as -four from the
wheat controlled under this plan
comes into the market, it will sell at
SO a barrel cheaper wholesale than the
average price Of the last four months.
Sugar Price to Fall Further.
THE sugar control comes into effect
October l. Already sugar has dropped
some. but it should drop about Sl.60
per 100 pounds, that is. about 90 per
cent under the average mid-August
price this year.
"To affect even wheat. -four and
sugar over 10000 concerns have had
to be licensed and all the regulations
and legal machinery has had TO be
worked out in thirty days and must be
placed in the hands of each of the
concerns before the control can be-
come operative"
