ADOPTED THE TWO
PLATOON SYSTEM
PORTLAND AND DETROIT
INACCURATE PLAN.
People of Both Cities, by Their Vote,
Favor Human Conditions for the
Firemen to Work Under;
Badly Needed in Denver.

The two platoon plan for municipal
firemen has been adopted in Portland,
Ore, and Detroit, Mich. In both cit
les the proposition was voted on by
the people and the official returns show
that in Portland, Ore, the adoption of
two platoon system carried by a
majority of II, ,521. The vote was 26,-
314 for and 14,793 against.
In Detroit the two platoon system
was adopted thru a charter amend
ment which carried by a good ma
jority also. There the provisions of
the amendment called for twenty-four
hours on and twenty-four hours off
duty.
In Denver the two platoon system
has been voted down. However, the
municipal firemen here should not lose
heart and the matter should be
brought up again at the earliest op-
portunity. The Denver Labor Bulle-
tin will be glad to give them all the
aid possible to bring about this result:
In the meantime little educational
agitation would help matters along for
the coming spring election and the mu-
nicipal firemen's organization would
do well to look into this matter.

OLD AGE PENSIONS BY THE U. S
Senator Mex ellar Says 1t Would Pay
the Government

In urging the Senate to pass his
retirement bill for aged government
employees, United States Senator Nc
Keilar showed his colleagues that
aside from the elemental justice in
volved, the plan would be a paying
project for Uncle Sam.
"It is estimated" said the law
maker, that there are $500 of these
superannuated employees and that A.
900 are absolutely useless to the gov
ernment. The proof before our COM
mittee showed that these are men and
women who have been longest in serv-
ice. 1t is estimated that 1000 of them
are absolutely doing no service to the
government at all, and probably the
salary of each one would amount to
about 81 500. There is $6,000,000 that
are being paid out toward these 1000
superannuated employees for which
the government gets no return at all,
and there are $500 left from which
the government gets only a partial
return, and that will probably make
nearly as great a saving as the
amount the government will ever
have to pay out In other words, the
bill not only provides for the benefit
of the employees, but it will benefit the
government by increased efficiency and
in saving the large salaries now paid
to superannuated employees"

DISPENSING JUSTICE.

Three ministers were arrested at
prayer meeting in Los Angeles when
about to discuss the danger of the
militarist spirit in our churches. After
being held in Jail for three months,
during which time they lost their
churches and contracted disease from
the filthy pen, they were brought into
court. They had been charged with
the remarkable offense Of intending 70
say things that might cause some pa
triotic citizen TO assault them. But
the prosecuting attorney admitted that
he had no lawful charge and that his
indictment was the only way he had
to get them. The judges of the su-
preme court then laughed heartily and
dismissed the case. 1t was very funny,
and the ministers probably enjoyed
this practical joke, too.
In San Francisco Tom Mooney was
sentenced to be hung on perjured tes-
timon- and labor is supposed to like
it. In Minnesota a governor won
denomination thru the false Indictment
of league leaders, and the organized
farmers are supposed to like it No
harm was meant-just a little fun
with labor and the farmers. It's the
new style in American jokes. The
common people are a little dull and
slow in appreciation. that's all. II
they can't see the joke, why, they can
leave the country. "She's all right,
Just as she is" the best people, who
are entitled TO an opinion, declare

TAX CHILD LABOR PRODUCTS.

A bill has been introduced in the
Senate at Washington providing for
tax of 10 per cent on the net profits
of persons employing child labor with.
in prohibited ages in addition to all
other taxes. The theory of this legis-
lation is endorsed by child labor oppo-
nents who have been studying methods
to evade the decision of the United
States supreme court when it invali-
dated the federal child labor law last
summer, that Congress cannot bar
child labor products from interstate
commerce. The new legislation is
based on the theory that the court
will hold that Congress has the right
to regulate this commerce.

FARMERS WIVES FOUGHT.

This is little tribute to the farmers wife and
daughter for what they did in the fields to help
win the war.
Secretary of Agriculture Houston, in his an
nual report, summarizes the output and effort of
American farms in these figures:
1918 wheat yield, 5,638,0O0,0O0 bushels.
1918 corn YIELD 918,920,O00 bushels.
Acreage in 1917 planted to wheat, corn, po-
tatoes, tobacco and cotton, 283,O00000; acreage
IN 1913 planted to same crops, $50 600, 000 Gain,
100000 acres.
s"The part the millions of men, women and
boys and girls on the farms and in the organized
agricu!tureal agencies assisting them, including
the federal department of agriculture, the state
colleges and departments of agriculture and
farmers organizations played during the war in
sustaining this nation and those with which we
are associated remarks Mr.. Houston, sis strik-
ing but altogether too littde known and appre-
ciated.
"on them rested the resi- onsibility for main
tanning and increasing food production and for
assisting in securing fuller conservation of food
and foodstuffs.'
Yes, and the farmers wife went out into the
fields after doing up her Homework and plowed,
narrowed and planted and cultivated beside her
husband SO the boy could go to war and there'd
be more busy acres and more food for everybody
IL America and Europe
And her daughter pitched hay and rode on the
rake and the binder and the cuItivator and the
wagon in the hot sun for the same reasons. And
the country and the world is fed and grateful.
Some day somebody is going to write the story
Of how the farmers wives stood in the muddy
burrows in fields to help the world to freedom,
and it's going to be the story of many Molly
Pitchers in one and it'll be best-seller too

SHALL WE ALL TAKE TEA?

W
Tea-drinking is on the increase in these United
States.
This statement is made on the authority of
the National City Bank of New York which has
collected statistics to prove it.
Whereas in 1909 we imported $4,000, 900
pounds of tea, in 1913 we imported Isl, 200. 900
pounds.
Why? The same authority gives the answer:
Prohibition
British tea experts say world consumption of
tea is increasing in direct ratio to the spread of
liquor restrictions and prohibition.
These facts are called to the attention of grape
juice and "soft-drink'' devotees. And to the
alarmists who see visions of world epidemics of
drug addictions.
Shall we have tea-saloons?
VIII they be a substitute for liquor saloons?
Is teas increasing popularity due to it's slim
ulating, exhilarating effects?
Will not coffee consumption jump, too?
Men used to speak rather contemptuously of
"tea-fghts." Will they change their mental
squint and become tea-fghters?
Will tea-drinking have any serious effects on
the virility of the race?
Let's put these problems up to the moralizers
They can easily develop arguments over them.

rs IT GOOD BUSINESS?

Out in Oregon the government is offering for
sale the entire equipment it has gathered to in
sure production of spruce for it's airplanes.
This has cost millions; it includes logging
roads, railroads, mills, boats, cut-up plants; it
forms the greatest equipment in the world today
for the economical and speedy production of the
fine materials needed in aircraft.
It will be sold at bargain, and probably most
of its efficiency will be destroyed.
If Uncle Sam is to carry mail and express
maybe passengers and freight by aircraft, and
if he is going to lead the world with his aerial
navies might it not be good business bunch to
keep this basic equipment together?
We merely inquire; perhaps Washington may
answer, to the satisfaction of the public.
If this speedy demolition and sacrifice of all the
big public industries built up for national eff
cheney is carried through and the nation loses it's
railroad control, it's ships, its authority over tel
egraph, cable, telephone and express companies
much of the public benefit the optimists saw
merging from the war will prove but chimera.

MEET THE NEW EMERGENCY.


Germany's assault on civilization found the
world, including the United States, military UNI
prepared to properly resist.
Advocates of preparedness in the United
States found little sympathy for months after
the war broke over Europe.
America was finally awakened to the danger to
liberty and democracy.
The emergency grandly met, as all the
world know. It was quickly met, too.
But while it was being met those who urged
preparedness for peace were wet-blanketed.
This may last five or ten years. the OBJ
jectors to preparation of business and industrial
plans declared. 1--WE have no time now to make
peace-time plans in the midst of great war
They were just as blind as those who in peace
time wouldn't prepare to meet the German war
menace
Now that the war is ended we find ourselves
in need of definite industrial and business pro-
gram.
It isn't here.
We didn't make it when it should have been
made.
Well be compelled to work hard and swiftly
to meet the situation thus created. Of course
we'll meet it weI no doubt. That's the Ameri-
can way.
But after this let's throttle the fellow who
doesn't believe in preparedness today for tomor-
row.
