FERRY BUMPS
DOCK AGAIN

The new county ferry is get
ting restless at lying around in
the water with no place to go.
It's baking again.
The failure to get a Point De-
fiance landing place Monday was
the last straw. Monday night she
got balky and bumped again into
the new Todd drydock.
While waiting for place to
land the ferry has been running
to the Todd shipyard. Apparent
ly she has it in for that, new dry
dock. About two weeks ago the
dock was given jar on the west
side. This time it was on the'
east side.
County Commissioner Slayden
declared Tuesday that little dam
age was done. The trouble is, he
said, that it Is hard for ferry
boat to make a landing when
there's no landing slip.
No report of the circumstances
of Monday nights collision was
given out, tho it was learned that
Capt. Clancy, the master, has been
laid up with the grip.

BONDS SLOW;
REASON WHY

The second issue of Liberty
bonds is being printed by the gov
eminent at the rate of 100000 a
day, and still delivery will be de-
layed by the physical impossible
fly of printing them fast enough.
This information is given Ralph
S. Stacy of the Tacoma National
bank in letter just received from
James X. Lynch, governor of the
federal reserve bank, San Fran
cisco.
Delay in issuing the bonds Is
better understood" says Lynch,
IF we count how many 500
gonds it takes to make a billion
dollars, and realize that each piece
of paper must be carefully print
ed. Deliveries will not be made
until the bonds are actually ship
ped to every federal reserve DIS
trict so that they can be distribut-
ed simultaneously all over the
country"

OF TROUBLE

SUnited Press Leased wireI
WASHINGTON, Sept. ~.
President Wilson IL taking
measures to still labor dis
putes in this country and dis
sipate the effect these trou-
blcs are having upon Russia.
The United Press is able to
state semi-officially today that
the president is personally press
ing for prompt adjustment of the
shipyards strikes on the western
coast; and that he will soon
sanction dispatch of a labor com
mission to Russia to clarity this
country's attitude toward the
war.
Both steps were regarded nee
essary because the labor unrest
in the west is being used, accord
ing to diplomatic reports. to ere
ate dissatisfaction with the war
among laborers in Russia.
The labor delegation to be sent
will include representatives from
different uniona miners, muni-
ton makers, etc.
Correct False Reports.
Each class will go out among
Russian workers engaged in SINH
lar occupations and spread the
gospel of unanimity and COM
mon cause to fight the war to a
successful finish. All will work
to one purpose--eorrect the re-
ports circulated in Russia thai
1.-The United States is no demoe-
racy, else her working people
would not be fighting the govern
ment."
To discuss this mission to Rus
STA, Samuel Gompers, head of the
American Federation of Labor,
will see the president late today.
The present impasse in the
coast strike situation is due to
conflict between the shipping
board and the shipyards wage add
justment board, the shipping
board attempting to take solution
of the coast problem out of the
hands of the wage adjusters.
Mooney Case Involved.
This did not meet with the APP
prevail of labor men affected. But
behind the geenral labor union
unrest in the west is seen pro-
test by labor against the death
sentence imposed upon T. j.
Mooney for the preparedness day

-. WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. Is.
To fill the army signal corps,
the war department may decide to
draft an additional 100000 men.
The signal service has asked for
a decision of the method to pur-
sue in filling up gaps, existing IN
the aviation and telegraph
branches, and the general staff is
expected to answer in a few days.
The draft law permits the fill
ing of units which are now below
strength, but it is held that an
added 100000, instead of any of
the $4,000 of the original draft
would be necessary for the signal
corps.
Men from the aviation sections
will have a chance to train either
in American schools or in Eng
land, France or Italy.
England, it is learned, has es-
tablished a flying school in Egypt
which is used chiefly by the Cana
dian corps.

among workers that "the United

effort was made by the Root COM
mission to dissipate feeling

it was emphasized upon return

work must be preferably

Before the commission can go,
however, President Wilson Ii ex-
pected to take definite stand on

clemency.
There is doubt among laborers
as to MONEYS guilt, and they say
that the president, taking cogni-
zance of this doubt. may accom-
plish two-fold benefit--do much
to clear the labor unrest in the
west and effectively squelch Ger

which we were conversing the other day, the
following facts may be interesting:
An old friend of mine who lives in Los
Angeles, Cal, now visiting here, told me
bread was much cheaper there than here.
l doubted the correctness of his figures,
and to prove it, wrote to Los Angeles and
had friend there buy at retail in the usual
course of trade and ship to me two loaves
of bread and had the bill sent along with
them.
I received 24-ounce loaf for II cents
and 12-ounce loaf for cents. This bread
was purchased on the 18th instant, and of
course had lost some weight in shipment,
but the loaves weighed, on the Tacoma post
office scales, 2315 ounces and Il ounces re-
spectively
In Tacoma we pay at retail Is cents for
a 22-ounce loaf and 10 cents for 14-ounce
loaf.
In other words, the 15-cent loaf which
is cheaper per ounce, costs us 6S1 of cent
per ounce, while the Los Angeles citizen
pays .458 of cent for an ounce
Put another way, we pay almost exact
more for our bread than they do.
For the smaller loaf they pay in Los A
sandths of a cent, and in Tacoma we pay II
a cent per ounce.
