ANOTHER KIND
OF N. P. |.
New California Organization to
Unite Farmers and
Workers.

San Francisco. Cal.-"One Of the
most significant movements now going
on in the labor world" said Paul
S~charyerberg, secretary OF the Califor-
MIA State Federation Of Labor, in an in
Special to Christian Science Monitor.
terview with a representative OF the
Christian Science Monitor, lis the at
Tempt to bring together the farmers, or
producers of food products, and the
workers who produce the various fin
lshed products Of commerce. We have
sought to bring these two large groups
into touch with each other in order
that they may cooperate for the benefit
OK all concerned, by the formation Of
the California Union Of Producers and
consumers. this organization repre-
senting the Farmers Educational and
Cooperative Union, the Pacific Coopera-
tive League, and the California State
Federation OF Labor
one OF the purposes Of this new Or
g~anization, as explained by Mr.. Schar-
renberg. Is to break down the idea that
the interests OF the workers on the land
and the workers In the factory are In
conflict in any way. 1t Is proposed to
bring Joint action to bear on pressing
legislative changes to further public
ownership OF all public utilities, includ-
Ina. transportation and communication;
to free the land and society from privi-
iege and monopoly M to provide a
practical plan Of cooperation for the
equitable distribution Of foOd and other
necessities Of life"
One of the plans Of the California
Unien OF Producers and Consumers is
the development Of irrigation systems
under the auspices Of the state. an
idea h a has not heretofore been
widely advocated, at least in an or
gan'zed way. 1--WE favor the fedora
ton of all irrigation systems" said
Mr.. Scharrenberg, under the aus
pices OF the state, in order to promote
their development and, where neces-
sary, to arrange facilities for joint
operation and to permit the manufac-
ture and sale Of electric power"
N view OF the new and serious in
dustfial and social problems created
by the war, which will have to be
faced with the coming OF peace, we
faVor the appointment by the state Of
n representative reconstruction COM
mittee to devise plans for the orderly
readJustments OF our state in the diff
ficult period of rehabilitation"
The Union Of Producers and Con-
sumcrs, containing as it does as an
intermediary link, the Pacific Cooper
alive League OF California is taking a
stand also on the matter of public
recognition of the practice of COOPER
alton as a means of bringing the pro-
Queer and consumer closer together
and thus consolidating the interests
OF society generally. The state is
urged to take up the question of the
cooperative movement in connection
with its activities in relation to the
high cost OF living. with a view to
utilizing the existing cooperative or
CARNATIONS for immediate purposes
IND encouraging the creation Of ad-
ditional cooperative organizations
where they are needed and conditions
are suitable.

ENGLISH CHILDREN
THANK AMERICANS
Send Thousands of Letters Elk.
pressing Gratitude For
Saving of Foods.

New York-"Jenny Jones, Of Sioux
Citq, Ia, | wan to make you acquainted
with Alice Brown. of Sheffield, Eng
land; here is a letter from her thank
ing You for saving food so that she
need not &C hungry. l invite you to
write to her.
This. in effect, though perhaps not by
the use Of those words. is the plan
adopted by United States Food Admin
istrator Herbert G.. Hoover, to convey
the thanks OF English school children
TO the children Of America for helping
him 10 conserve food for the benefit Of
English girls and boys.
Mr.. Hoover has brought back from
London many thousands or letters from
the British boys ard girls and his plan
is to send At least n letter TO every
puOlic school in the Cnited States.
The letters were delivered to MIR.
Hoover during his recent visit to LON
don. Two motor cars were required to
carry them. Some OF them were writ
ten by individuals while others were
signed by the children of a who'll
school: so that the total represented the
thanks Of thousands Of British chill
dren.
The editor OF tho Teachers World
presented to Mr.. Hoover a deputation
OF English school children and told the
American food administrator that the
letters were heartfelt expressions of
gratitude to the American nation which
had denied itself to provide England
with food.
II will very proudly distribute these
letters among our American schools"
replied Mr.. Hoover. ~ am sure that
they will form one OF the most effective
links possible between the people OF the
two nations. Each enc OF them will be
priced, and | will see to 1t that not one
of the thousands OF schools scattered
throughout our country Is left without
at least one Of them. They form a
heap of real treasure. and should have
a very far reaching result.
81 feel that too much Is made of my
own part In the American -endeavor by
addressing all these letters to me rer-
sonslly. for really the thanks should go
to the American people. There Is, how
ever. something very beautiful and in
spring In the thought underlying them

The former grand dukes are greatly
worried about their property. Particu-
larry under the bolshevist regime, many
or the precious and rare paintings and
Things OF art belonging to the grand
dukes nave been stolen n scattered
throughout Europe. A horseshoe. stud
ded with diamonds. for example-the
property Of the Grand Duke Andrea
Vladimirovitch-and valued at more
than 10000 0 roubles tabout 81 900, 600
in normal times) was obtained by a
Spectator for 5000 roubles and sold for
3o0,0O0 roubles. Fortunately. the hors e.
shoe was recovered through the grand
dukes own efforts. The pillow on
which Alexander III slept was sold on
the Alexandrinski market for Is ruu-
bleJ, afterwards resold for so roublas,
ana finally located at the home OF a
ca3 driver. The handkerchiefs of Cath-
crime III and the former Czarina were
sold In the streets Of Petrograd at a
rouble C3 cents) apiece. A peasant
who obtained a handkerchief used by
Catherine III sold it to a member Of the
French Military Mission for $4,000 rou"
bles. Valuable dogs, belonging to the
Car were sold at from 10 to Is roubles
each. One dog. named PIT" which ac-
companied the Gar on all his trips
and was the gift of the kaiser, was
sold for 2 roubles. The boots of Peter
the Great were sold for 20 roubles.
The grand dukes have addressed a
special plea to the bolshevik govern
ment for the security of their govern-
ment. The matter was taken into con
sideration by M bolshevistsZafter
much OF the property representing part
OF the cultural estate Of the Russian
people was stolen.
Only the grand dukes residing in and
about Petrograd have been exiled to
Vologda and Perm. 1t is believed, how
ever, that Grand Duke Dmitri Pav'o-
witch, Rasputin's slayer and son of
Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovitch, will
also go to Vologda I'm view of the critk-
cal illness Of his father. Dmitri Is now
in Teheran, whittier he was exiled by
the car for leading the assassination Of
Rasputin. The grand dukes residing In
Finland and Crinea will not be molest-
ed. They will simply nav to register.

Of these regions, the grand dukes are
in their hands.
Grand Duke Nicolai Michailovitch Is
working hard in Vologda on his
memoirs, covering q period of many
years, particularly the intrigues at the
court during the war and prior to the
revolution. Much space will be devoted
to the c'andestine correspondence be-
tween leading members OK the court
and Germany. The grand duke will
prove, on the basis Of original docu-
ments, that although efforts were made
by certain members OF the court and
government to conclude a separate
peace with Germany, there never was
such effort made on the part OF the
government as "A whole.
An English publishing house has Of
fered to publish the book but the grand
duke has refused the offer.

tantamount TO abject surrender, the
die is now 10 be cast in front Of the

Auto Owners Attention

We all know that the amount Of
work men can do is limited and that
it is necessary for them TO have a
certain amount of rest and recrea-
ton and in keeping with this belief
and in further view Of the shortage
Of labor that has forced many Of
our men to do nearly double work,
we, \the undersigned owners of gar
ages in this city have determined to
close our places Of business on Sun
day except that we will keep1sone
man to let cars in and out OF the
garage. In other words we urge our
patrons to buy their supply Of gaso-
line and oil on Saturday instead of
Sunday and by doing this we will
be enabled to allow our employees to
have the Sabbath for what it was in
tended for, day of rest. We feel
that the public will agree with US in
this matter.
When the Fuel Administrator or
dered the gasolineless Sundays, the
people periodically acceeded to his
request and under the conditions
that now exist we feel sure that after
considering this matter they will sup
port us as we feel it is their duty
to do so.
This ruling not to apply to ply
sicians or cases of sickness or fun
erals. This agreement was entered
into by all the garages but for rea-
sons best known to themselves one
of the garages have Withdrawn
from it.
