MAN WANTED"

Man power, we are told is winning the war for the Allies. The draft law will naturally make big hole in the available number of men in the United States The "man wanted" advertisements in the daily newspapers tell many interesting stories Statistics available in Washington are however more specific. From these it apears that the war industries of the United States are at the moment short between 3OO,OOO to 100000 common laborers. The shortage in skilled labor is almost as acute and the war plants of Connecticut and Maryland alone are undermanned by 35OOO skilled workmen. One of the largest munition plants, turning out heavy caber guns, is short 2,OO0 machinists. The employment service of the Labor Department is trying to solve of the problems occasoned by the above condi- tions; and of the methods for getting more labor is to declare certain vacations non-essental Un- doubtedy if all the non-essentias" could be put into the productive it would go long way towards solv- ing the labor troubles; but in such an event whole lot of gentlemen with soft hands and polished finger nails would get mussed up considerably. Special at tention is being given by the employment service conducted by the Government to cities over 10000 population, although the rural districts will be cover- ed as extensively as possible.

AMERICAS PROMISE

"The American people are gladly willing to make sacrifice in consumption and production of food stuffs that will maintain the health, comfort and courage of the people of the allied countries. We are, in fact, eating at common table with them."
 The above message from President Wilson was delivered by the U. s. Food Administration to the Allied Food Controllers Conference in London m July.
 America during the last twelve months has ported 10,00O,0O0 tons of foodstuffs. If it should become necessary she can increase this amount to 180O0,000 tons during the next twelve months This would mean million and one half tons month.
 To accomplish this will mean careful economy and no waste. It will mean intensive planting and increased harvesting
 America cannot moment forget that if she is to share the victory she must ship her food.

NEW COMPENSATION LAW

The voters of Arizona will be called upon at the forthcoming election to either approve dsapprove of the compensation law proposed by the last eg. lature. This proposition, if enacted into law, will dspace the present law, which has been found to be inadequate and unjust For years the various states of the Union have been called upon to enact compen- sation measures that will protect men employed in hazardous occupations to the fullest extent. Many of the big states have enacted very good aws but in of them has there been the absolute protection that is desired by workers In line with all the other states Arizona enacted compensation law as one of the first acts of statehood. This law has all oc- casons been found to be imperative It fails to fill the bill in any particular, and it is proposed to supplant it with law that will give the workman the full meade of protection. One of the provisions of the new measures is to place all insurance under state control and at cost onehaf that of the pres ent premiums Another provision covers every class of injury and makes positive the amount of recovery and the injured party is to get every cent of the money, not the lawyer or the party making settle ment. The workman under the law receives 66 2-3 of his or her earning capacity It is most compre- hensive in it's terms and who can read may misinterpret it. While it is elective, that is, may be either relied upon rejected by the employer every defense is taken from the employer who seeks to evade the law there will be none who will take a chance suit in court There is no fellow servant or negligence to be pleaded in extenuation of injuries by the employer and in fact it is so fair to employer and employee that need fear it's operation.
 We have seen so much miscarriage of justice un- der the old law that hope this proposed law will carry with big majority

INDUSTRIAL AWAKENING

Among these commodities are dyes, and our own factories have made such progres that Germany will never again be recognized in the industry.

CASH UP
By Oliver Opdyke of The Vigilantes

By Oliver Opdyke of The Vigilantes The cream of the earth the sons that you sent To battle the beast on the old continent,-
 git-edged investment each lad of the lot, You cannot go wrong if you give all you've got To back up their courage to help them push through To bring them back home again faithful and true, Why, they'd be ashamed if you didn't respond So come on, cash up, buy Liberty Bond! This minute some boy out on Gods frontier Is giving his blood for your safety here; He's breaking with strain to his finger tips- Perhaps he's "going west' with your name on his lips He's spending his soul in the holy cause,- Can you for few paltry dollars pause To question the deal or have interest conned? o, come on, cash up, buy Liberty Bond!

THE HOME FRONT

The battle front in Europe is not the only Amer ican front There is home front, and our people at home should be patriotic as our men in uniform in foreign lands.
 Every American soldier who has fallen in France, every American sailor who has died for his countrys cause has given his life for his people. Surely we, their people, can lend money to Nation, their country
 The Fourth Liberty Loan is the fighting loan. It's great success will bring comfort and encouragement and deep sense of pride to Army and our Navy, and to alies it will bring Encouragement to our enemies. Its success means American victory, Prus- sian defeat.
 The Fourth loan is the fighting loan, the soldiers loan.
