THE HIGH COST

F. H. Wallace, sales manager for
the John Thompson Grocery company,
perhaps the largest food retailers in
Denver, gave some interesting infor-
nation to a Bulletin representative
concerning the excitement occasioned
by unusual purchases last Friday and
Saturday, and the food situation gen
orally.
81 wish The Bulletin would give
some facts that the daily papers do
not print, in order that the working
people may be informed. In the first
place, Denver retailers do not fix the
prices on staple food supplies, that is
done in New York and Chicago. In
sugar, flour, meats and canned goods
there is shortage and from present
indications prices are going to be
higher.
"Three factors enter into the present
high cost of living. First, the short
crops of last season; second, that this
nation has been feeding 100000
destitute Belgians, as well as fur
nishing immense supplies for Euro
pean armies, and third, that nearly
800 ships, laden with food from Amer
lea, now lie at the bottom of the sea,
victims of mines and submarines.
Neither wholesale nor retail mer-
chants can prevent purchasers from
laying in big stocks. This is a mat
ter for the federal, state and municip-
al authorities to control. Every food
merchant in Denver would be glad to
see this done, because we want every
body to get square deal. To be
effective, restriction of food buying
must extend over all the nation.
Should Denver do this alone or even
all Colorado, it would not change the
situation. There is too much waste
of food in the homes. We must come
to realize that a separate dish cannot
be prepared for each member of the
family. It's going to cost more next
year, and we should begin to con-
serve our food supplies right now"
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-04-14
cincinnati Chronicle.)

The Chronicle has from time to time
dwelt upon what has become known as
the "no-strike" plan for workers. Its
position has been unequivocally and
unqualifiedly against the plan as ad-
vocated by Mr.. w. L. Mackenzie
King, the man who was imported to
Cincinnati by an individual who is now
denied the privilege of calling Ohio
his place of residence.
However well the Chronicle might
reiterate it's objections to that law, it
cannot improve upon the masterful
way The Denver Labor Bulletin states
it; and in Colorado the "no- strike"
law was put into operation primarily
to assist the exploiters of labor in
the mining industry, of which the
Rockefeller foundation and Rockefel-
Ter, Jr., are the head and front, ably
CD assisted by Mr.. Mackenzie King
as chief enslaver. We reproduce the
editorial in full, and leave it to our
readers: do they favor such soul
destroying and MISUNDERSTANDING thing
would foist upon the liberty-loving
workingmen of Ohio?
attention is directed to a resolu-
tion adopted by Denver Typograph-
ical Union No. 40, printed on the first
page of this issue. Fore fifty-eight
years this pioneer labor organization
of the state has been conducting its
business without advice or consent of
an irresponsible political commission.
By unanimous vote of over two hun
dred members present at meeting
last Sunday it was determined that
this course would not be changed, not
withstanding the Legislature has re-
fused to repeal the MISUNDERSTANDING
industrial commission law, written
upon the statute books two years ago.
"The printers have laid down a rule
of action which will undoubtedly be
followed by every labor organization
in this state. 1t means simply this:
that having failed in an appeal to the
lawmaking body of the state to right
an injustice, the law will be ignored.
If this be treason to the state, some
thing like forty-seven thousand mem
bers of organized labor in Colorado
stand ready to go to Jail rather than
sacrifice their just rights-human
rights for which our forefathers
fought with George Washington fol-
lowing the Declaration of 1ndepend-
ence in 1776.
"No other state in the Union has
attempted to brand its wage-earning
citizens as criminals who must be
guarded in regulating their affairs by
three men appointed by the governor,
who have neither knowledge nor SYM
pathy with those who toll.
Denver labor bulletin., 1917-04-14
LABOR EDITORS AND
THE BOOZE MOOCHERS

Next month the Labor Press asso-
citation will meet in st. Louis. The
last time the association met in st.
Louis, about four years ago, the
booze grafters hornswoggled the edi-
tors into a position where the only
work they were to do after the con-
vention adjourned was print Canned"
anti-prohibition editorials free of cost
to the whisky interests. More than
sixty of the labor papers fell for the
moochers. The next convention was
held in Chicago, and it was at this
meeting that Joe Probstle over-played
the game and undertook to lecture the
editors as to their "duty." He put
thru the same program for the labor
editors to follow as was put over at
st. Louis. Just one stick-ful para
graph opened the eyes of the labor
editors and the first week the canned"
fell for it. The next week the number
fell off a couple and then the spell
ceased to work. Then convention
was held in Cincinnati. One of the
editors who did not attend sent let
ter to the convention that put the XII
bosh all over the moochers, and the
convention stood up and declared itself
on the work of the moochers. Now,
another convention will be held in
st. Louis and as member of the as
sociation we want to see the delegates
kick the whisky outfit out of the hall
if they again attempt to make the
editors take position on the liquor
question that they would not dare ask
any other editorial association in
America to do. There is not a union
official organ in the country that would
dare print the dope Joe Probstle says
it is the "duty" of Independent labor
editors to print. No self-respecting
labor editor would print stuff an Off
cial organ editor refuses to print

CONSCRPTION IS

CONTINUED From Page one1


He has never shown any interest in
labor legislation or the labor move
ment. He has never done anything
for any legislation of interest to the
wage-earners anywhere. But because
he has had his name on the list of
members of the committee for a GER
tain number of years, and longer than
any other member of his party, he
inherits tremendous power for good
or evil over the lives of the American
working class.
Heating of Colorado had earned this
Craftsmanship, and would have made
the best record in it, from the stand
point of promoting labor measures, of
anyone since the committee was Gre
ated. But he was showed aside be-
cause the rule of seniority must be

Hoke Smith FavOrs Labor.
The only hopeful element in the sit
uation is that Maher will find himself
badly suited in the job, and will re-
sign. If he does not, there will be
no labor legislation in the present
such as is forced thru without regard
to the will of the chairman of the COM
mittee.
In the Senate the committee on edu-
cation and labor is more promising.
Hoke Smith of Georgia, the chairman,
has become more or less progressive
in the past two years. Hollis of New
Hampshire, Ashurst of Arizona, Jones
of New Mexico and McKellar of Ten
nessee, on the Democratic side, are
considered favorable to humane legis-
lation. Swanson of Virginia is a
standpatter. On the Republican side
are Borah of Idaho and Kenyon of
Iowa, progressive, and Penrose of
Pennsylvania, Page of Vermont and
Mclean of Connecticut, standpatters.
Food Director During War.
In order to secure lower prices on
food, the administration is now con-
sidering the creation of the Office of
food controller, to be filled by man
of big reputation in that field-such
a man as General Goethals or Herbert
Hoover, director Of the Belgian relief
commission.
If such controller is given the job,
he will be expected to regulate the dis
tribution and marketing and delivery
of every pound Of food in the United
States, to cut out all waste,
