Uncle Sam is telling Brother John That it is absolutely necessary for the workingclass to.
 ''OrganiZe"

With the approaching spring. and the steadily increasing high cost of living it behooves the worker to give some serious consideration to the matter of organization. There has not been much work during the winter which is now almost passeG; and it is likely many who otherwise would have paid stricter attention to union matters have allowed such to pass with little concern.
 The vital importance of organization has been often insisted upon in these pages, and yet it cannot be insisted upon too often, for without orguniza- tion there is no class so completely helpless as the wage worker. Unor- Eanized he faces as an individual one who has absolute control over him in having control over the job he wants to have access so that the workers may obtain what is needed to sustain life, organized he masses his strength with the strength of fellow workers and faces the boss in a position to say in some manner the conditions under which he shall be employed. In this camp conditions have been mnintaii e,l in all occupations simply by ureunized labor. Without organization nothing could have been accomplished The strength organization gives the work ing class is too obvious a fact to be insisted upon. It has been responsible for whatever progress has been made, and will be responsible for whatever progress has yet to be made.
 The facts in favor of organization are so numerous and overwhelming that no argument against it is even tried by those who are opposed to it.
 It is no longer necessary to argue on it. The mere fact that some men who do not belong to labor orCariza- tions enjoy favorable terms of employ ment cannot be used against organiza-
 
 are non- union men they are enjoying favorable conditions solely on account of existing unions.
 This fact is very striking in this camp of Nome. Many men have had good jobs who will not assist in the up-keep of organized labor; but were tomorrow labor organizations to be- come in this camp non-existent it would be good by to the non union mans pleasant job. 10 q certain ex- tent this fact is recognized by some of these non-union men themselves, and they are simply taking advantage of the unions in order to Seltishly better themselves as they think.
 They think of course wrong. That conditions are not better is due al- most solely to the fact that there are men like these we refer to who believe i.aat they can do better outside labor organiza tions than within the union ranks.
 These men are like a deserter from the ranks. during this strenuous time of war. One says to himself that his absence will not be missed. that he will seek safety in the rear and that othors will do the fighting while he

EASTER RUSH AT
 THE LOCAL PoSToFFIcE.
Regular Clerks and Substitutes Kept
 Busy Handling Heavy Mail.

The business in the local postohice during the past few days had all the appearance of Christmas rush, and the
 regular clerks and substitutes were kept busy handling the Easter and quarterly mail. The parcel post was heavier than that of any Easter time
 in the past.
 Saturday was the banner day for the
 war savings certificates and thrift stamps since the beginning of the
 sales. Many thrift cards were ex- changed for certificates.
 The government wishes to enlist ev- cry man, woman and child of the na- tion in war saving service. When an
 individual buys war savings stamps he enlists in the production division ot the nation, thereby supporting and backing up the fighting division which is in France and on the seas.

rotary Baker today by DR.. Charles A
Rosewater of Newark, n. J., who sub
mitted survey he has made Of South
eTn states with reference to the use
Of habit forming drugs.
DR.. ROsewater said the Harrison
law was inadequate and cited a pur-
chase OF 200 ounces Of cocaine for
export, much of which he believed
reached American soldiers.
The report speaks Of prevalence Of
drug addiction and says the drug
most commonly used is caffeine, in
combination with certain substances
allied to cocaine which is taken in
drinks. Reckless use OF the prescrip
ton privilege by physicians, dentists
and veterinarians is commented upon.
DR.. Rosewater also reported wide
spread use Of alcohol containing pro-
prietary and home remedies, many
Of which, he said, are practically
nothing but favored alcohol

MEAT SHORTAGE RELIEVED

Washington, May 31.-Britfsh work
ing men whose meat ration in the last
few weeks dropped almost to the van
ishing point, now are back on the nor
NAL allowance under the compulsory
rationing system. A cablegram to the
Food Administration from the British
ministry of food today announced this
had been made possible, thanks to
the splendid response from America. -
Supplies of butter and cheese still
are short in England, but imports from
the United States are expected to re-
Iieve that situation also. No reserve
of any food is in sight, however, in
spite of the decreased consumption
which has accompanied strict enforce
ment Of rationing.
In April the United States sent to
England 359,058,00O pounds of beef
and pork products, compared with
ISL ,0OO, 900 pounds in April, 1917, and
43,70O,000 pounds in the same month
OF 1914, before the war began.

Stale railroad or rate commissions

even though many provisions of the
new order more than double the
charges for short hauls within states.
The director general today explained
in a telegram TO chairmen OF state
commissions, however, that he viii

in states which have their own intra-
state classifications, rates viii be
