PRICES COMPARED

Food prices in Denver have risen
from so to $50 per cent since opening
of the European war. Figures gath
cred by The Bulletin from reports of
local grocers to the United States gov
ernment show this rapid advance of
the high cost of living. The prices
quoted are for the medium quality of
goods by large cash stores. We have
compiled the following table for in

C. Thornton, president of the Denver
Trades and Labor Assembly was
among those invited by the governor
to take up this work and cooperate
with the state officials in preparing
Colorado to meet this emergency. This
committee has gone over every phase
of the food situation from production
to retail grocer and butcher, and some
beneficial results are hoped for.

-workmen, employers, doctors
and other scientists, met in Washing
ton this week to discuss plans.
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-04-14

$50 far as the working people of
Colorado are concerned, the Industrial
commission law is dead letter. Five
hundred members of Denver Typo
graphical Union No. 40 are today
working in their places or walking the
streets in open defiance of that law.
They will have the united support,
not only of every other member of
organized labor in the state and ma
ton, but of all citizens who believe in
liberty and Justice"
And this condition of affairs, so far
as the state of Colorado is concerned,
would be wreaked upon the wage
earners of every other state, were it
possible to enlist the services. of some
alleged labor leaders and some en-
ployers.
The words reproduced from The
Denver Labor Bulletin stand out with
almost equal significance as do the
words of Patrick Henry, who, in a
most impassioned speech said: "Give
me liberty or give me deathl"
And organized labor the country
over reiterates those words a thou
sandfold emphasized.

we refuse to be enslavedl

Chicago Union Leader.)

When Mother" Jones was deported
from Colorado during the miners
struggle for organized existence
against the Rockefeller interests some
years ago, she told the sheriff who ac-
companied her that she would return
to Colorado when it became "a part
of the United States" Since that
time Colorado law makers and law ad-
ministrators have made no headway
assembly of 1915 passed a "can't-
strike" law and the present legislative
assembly has refused to repeal it.
Organized labor and American
spirited citizens of this corporation
bossed state are up in arms over the
denial of constitutional liberty by the
Legislature. The union printers have
declared that they will ignore the
"can't-strike" law and stand on their
constitutional rights to act as free
men. "If this be treason" they say,
"make the most of it." They will 90
to Jail rather than yield their Ameri-
can privileges. All other unions in
Colorado are making the same declara-
ton.
Here is the resolution passed unan-
imously by the Denver Printers Union:
Resolved, That it be the sense of
Denver Typographical Union No. 40,
that the committee drafting a new
scale of prices for the book and job
branch, and officers of this union, do
not present same, or give thirty days
notice of such proposed wage changes
or working conditions, to the Colo
RADIO industrial commission, nor rec
ognize such commission at any period
during the time of these negotiations
with our employers, but that the COM
mittee and the officers of this union
pursue the same course of direct deal
ing with printing employers of this
city as in the past when all wage
scales and changes of working condi-
tions are being considered"

DEATH Of RANGE STOCK
RESULT OF POISON PLOT
Cattle and Hogs in Modoc
County, California, Killed
by Poisoned Salt.

Sacramento, July 24.-State Veteri-
marian Charles X. Keane announced
today that the deaths of large num-
her of cattle and hogs in the Tule Lake
section of Modoc county were appar-
entity due to a poison plot
The opinion of DR.. Keane IS oased
on a report from DR.. e. NJ. Keef, a
deputy in his department who has just
completed a special investigation In
the north. DIR. Keane says there is
every indication the animals were
killed by poisoned salt set out on the
ranges.
Dr. Keane said he was In no posi-
tiou to say who was responsible foi
the work, but indicated belief that

stockmen in the district were respoh-

MASTER LISTS
Of THE DRAFT
ARE SENT OUT
Every PreCaution Is Taken
to Secure Prompt
Delivery.

Washington, July 24-Master lists
Of the draft-the official and last
word assigning every man of the 10,
100000 to his place in the national
army-were going forward In the
mails today to the 1867 local boards.
They supersede all hitherto published
lists and rectify all errors. The lists
have been prepared with the greatest
care and safeguards against errors.
Printed by the most expert and
trusted men in the government print
ing office, they have been proof read
three times. In order that each dis
trict board may be assured Of getting
list in the mails, two copies are be-
ing mailed to each-one in one mail
land one in another The theory Of
this practice is that If one list goes
astray the other surely will reach its
destination.
The summoning of the men of the
first increment before the local board
will quickly follow the receipt of the
official master lists. Until the men
are summoned they are free to vol
unteer.

Washington, July 24.-The $780,

today with President Wilson's sig

This immense appropriation is
only the beginning of preparations
for the campaign intended to over
whelm Germany from the air. More
than 10000 planes are to be built
as a first increment and there will
be many thousands Of aviators. The
first task will be the instruction of
the vast army of alrmen.
Germany, realizing the danger Of
the air campaign, already is fever
ishly building airpIanes to fiaht the
fleets coming to overwheIm her.
The element of speed therefore is
foremost in building the American
fleet. Howard E. Coffin, chairman
OF the aircraft production board of

day said all industrial records for
the development of new art must
be broken in rushing through the
program to completion.

SECRETARY BEFORE
SENATE COMMITTEE
War Tax Bill Probably Will Be
Further Revised by
Senate.

Washington, July 24.-New e8-
Inmates for $5,000,000,000 for
war expenditures held up the war
tax bill about to be reported to
the senate by the finance com
mittee. Secretary McAdoo told
the committee that the army and
navy departments had notified
them they would need that great
sum in addition to the money al
ready provided and he asked that
the bill be held up while it was
determined when the money would
be spent and how it should be
raised. 1t was learned unofficially
that one plan under consideration
is to raise billion dollars more
than the bill now provides by
taxation and to authorize the
government to make a new loan
Of 81. 500,OO0,OO0. Whether the
loan would be in the form of new
bonds or short term certificates
has not been determined, nor has
the rate Of interest, The new
taxes probably will be raised
from excess profits, estates and
income taxes.
Secretary McAdoo appeared before
the finance committee late today to
explain the treasury's needs, based on
the requirements of the army and
navy. Whether the $4,000 900. 900
would be raised by bond issue has
not been determined.
