Turkey raising Is a phase of poul- try growing which has been sadly ne- glected, yet there are hundreds of farms where turkeys could well be grown as a part of the regular farm poultry project with little extra labor and considerably increa sed income To carry a large flock of turkeys is a nuisance and requires a special ar engagement for coops. while a small flock of 25 or 30 birds can run about the fields and pastures doing little damage and a lot of good and growing meat at low cost

President of the American Fedora
ton of Labor.

Enterprise Association.)
Despite our every. endeaVOr, each
day seems to make war more mevi-
table Under these conditions it be-
comes the great task of the Ameri-
can labor movement to demonstrate
to the world that democracy can be
efficient in war, even as it is in peace.
The more democratic countries Of
the world have always proved them
selves the most efficient and progress
sive in the pursuits Of peace, as was
first demonstrated by the American
colonies when they broke away from
the leading strings of Great Britain.
1t is now our duty to show the world
that in war also the same superiority
can be maintained.
In this movement to make demOC-
Tacy efficient in war, the labor move
ment must take a leading part, even
as it has played the lead in every
other democratic movement in the
worlds history.
1t is from the ranks of labor that
the armies are recruited and organ
lied. It is IabOr's power that makes
it possible to create the great ma
chinery and the endless supplies of
munitions which the prosecution of
modern warfare demands. And it is
only through the untiTing harmOni-
GUS action of labor that the armies
as well as the civil population are fed,
clothed and transported.
Democracy can be efficient only
when it is united.
When there is discomfort, dissatis-
faction and discord within the ranks
Of democracy its power is crippled
and dissipated. Production lags and
the vigor of the entire industrial life
is impaired wherever there is a force

that there are strong forces at work
in this country creating dissensiOn
and distrust of the very government
behind which we must unite if our
purposes are to be attained.
In pointing out these forces which
are making for distrust of govern
ment, I do not refer to the prOpagan-
da Of any enemy country, nor to the
mOuthings of misguided agitators,
but to those forces, always inimical
to the people, which under cover of
this critical time in which we are
now living are attempting to deprive
the people, and particularly the
working people, of their most funda-
mental rights and to impose upon
them much of what is worst in the
most hated autOCTacies of Europe.
In the state of New York, under
cover Of false patriotism, the most
reactiOnary forces in America are
banded together in an attempt to
create a cOssack cOnstabUlary, with
which the rights of the workers can
be as ruthlessly trampled upon as
they have been under a similar sys-
TEN in Pennsylvania.
In Colorado, the declaration by
wage-eaners that they would exer-
else their constitutional right to
strike despite the law of the state
which denied them that right has
been branded as treason. by the sin
lister forces which control that states
government.
Here in the capital of the nation
there is hardly bill providing for the
defense Of the nation which has not
had cleverly concealed within it
clauses whose intent was to reduce
the workers to the status of serfs or
to deprive them of their most fun
damental rights. Fortunately, organ
lied labor has been awake to these
menaces and so far has been able to
prevent their enactment.

CLAIM SOLDIERS SHOT
NEGROES WANT0NlY

EAST ST. LOUIS, H., Oct. 10
Wanton shooting at Negroes by
soldiers on patrol duty during the
race riots here last May was testi-
fed to before the congressional
committee investigating the riots
Thursday. Charles Roger, presi-
dent OF a large chemical company,
here, testified that he had heard a
man in a crowd OF whites remark
to one of a group of soldiers:
What are you doing with that
gun, you can't shoot"
The hell can't" Roger quoted
the soldier as saying.
Whereupon the soldier fired into
a crowd of Nesroes a block away
and one of the Negroes fell wound
ed, testified the witness.
Mr.. Roger said he told Gov.
Frank O. LOwden of that and sim
liar incidents, but that no special
effort was made 10 learn the iden-
} tity of the soldier.
Frank A. Hunter, general man
ager of the Swift q Co. packing
plant, testified that at the time of
the riots, railroads stopped hand
ling freight for six days. He said
he believed the riot was caused by
i'll feeling of union men against
Negro laborers imported from the
south and denied that his company
had anything TO do with these i'm
pOrtatiOns.

and wholesale distributors in these
trades are in course of regulation.
Beef Already Dropping.
Beef already shows some ten
dency toward reduction In wholesale
price but these have not been so
far reflected in the prices quoted by
the retailer. The price Of beef at
the packers door is Il 1-2 cents
per pound as compared with 16
cents in the month of July when
the average retail prices Of round
steak in 796 cities was 81 cents per
pound against 81 cents per pound
in January, thus showing that retail
prices have increased. while whole
sale prices have decreased.
Producers Hold Potatoes.
I'VE have a potato harvest of SO
percent in excess of the crop OF
last year. The price at the load
ing points varies from $3.50 70
S2.0S per 100 pounds, depending on
the section where grown and the
cost of getting them TO market. The
price, which is somewhat higher
than at this period last year, is due
to a tendency on the part of pro-
ducers 10 hold the potatoes for
higher prices than last year despite
the greatly increased crop and to
the temporary inability of the rail
roads to furnish equipment sufficient
to move from many sections the
quantity available at this time The
average price of potatoes delivered
in the markets has closely followed
the price which the producer hiss
received plus the cost of distribu
ton 10 the market.
The larger supply of cars and
the large harvest warrant lower
prices later in the fall.
Beet sugar prices are being con
trolled by the manufacturers upon
a basis that should reach the re-
taller from eight TO eight and one
half cents per pound, depending
upon the locality. Sugar 10 con-
PETITIONERS from beet factories is
now being restricted and a tenn
porary shortage in the northeastern
states gives no warranty for the
advances by retailers to over nine
cents per pound.

Heat in Tires.

1t is we'll known that after long
and fast run the tires of an automO-
bile are found to be very hot, and
many have supposed this is the re-
suit of the frictions of the tire ON
the road. Such is, however, not the
case, at least as to the greater pOr-
ton Of the heat. The real cause Of
heating is the internal friction Of the
tire itself, for as the tire is being
constantly DETECTED by contact with
the road, the various plies, or layers
which compose the tire, do not act
uniformly, and consequently there is
more or less motion between them,
that results in friction and heat.
The greater the change in shape in
tire as it contacts with the road the
greater will be the friction. Of course
the harder the tire is pumped, the
less will be detection, but it is evil
dent that while perfectly rigid tire
would generate but little heat it
would fail in giving easy riding, so
we must put up with some heating
and consequent wear of the tire.
