SULTAN RIVER
PIPE LINE JOB

The coming of the end of the
Sultan River pipeline job, like the
"crack of doom" is still coming.
The Washington Paving Company
fizzled on the contract and seemed
to be paving the way to an ever
lasting job which it wouldn't or
couldn't finish and tried to prevent
the city or anybody else from finish
ing it.
Engineer Koon says the line east
of the Snohomish River is nearing
completion; that testing" was fin
ished last week and only a "few
leaks" were found; there still re-
mains some back-filling to be done
on the line. There has been too
much backing and filling" on this
job.
The Snohomish River is too full
for work on the Lowell Crossing and
Engineer Koon says the line cannot
be finished before Christmas time.

by that time, so we can all take a

LABOR LEADERS
START LABOR PARTY

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-Union labor
leaders of Chicago are planning to-
day for a vigorous campaign to OBJ
tain endorsement of every local la
Dor union and state and national
labor organization for the "Independ-
ent Labor party" launched at the
regular meeting of the Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor.
The new party was born out of the
conflict between labor leaders and
the local City Council, which has re-
fused to declare itself in favor of
supporting three labor leaders nom
mated by Mayor Thompson for mem
bership on the local Board of Educa-
ton.
The first steps will be to place a
local ticket in the field, to seek the
office Of mayor and control Of the
City Council through the spring
elections.

(By James NJ. Lynch)

Former President of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union; Member
New York State Industrial Commits
sion.)
One of the periodicals, of large
circulation, has been publishing a Sc
ries of articles on business in war
time. In the eighteenth installment
is this prophecy: Remember, too,
that labor will be more intelligent
than ever before and must be more
intelligently dealt with. Labor, too,
during these four years of war has
been forced to think more intensive
ly than ever before"
Labor has passed through four
years of war in all belligerent ma
tions, but in these United States not
half that time in the actual sense of
participation in war. Have the les
sons that have been learned by la
Dor in England, France and Italy
been as thoroughly absorbed here?
Our President has said: "The old
party slogans have lost their sig
nificance and will mean nothing to
the voter of the future, for the war
is certain to change the mind of
Europe as well as the mind of Amer
lea" Every programme must meet
this test: rs it just; is it for the
Lenefit of the average man, without
influence or privilege; does it en-
body in real fact the highest con-
ception Of social justice and with
right dealing without respect Of per-
son or class or particular interest?"
If the prophecy and the gospel
are both correct, then indeed we NAV
be of great hope
Are our producers, by brain and
hand, ready for the great day, to
again quote the President, "a day, /
we hope and believe, Of greater op-
portunity and greater prosperity for
the average mass Of struggling men
and women, and of greater safety
and opportunity for children?"
For this day we both hope and
pray-and organize.

FRENCH CONTINUING
MUNICIPAL EATS"

The French Government has voted
an appropriation of $50,000O0O to
further develop the municipal kitch-
ems and restaurants. Minister of Pro-
visions Boret declares that the sys-
tenn of municipal feeding has be-
come such thorough success that
the plans of extension now being con-
sidered are fully warranted, not only
for the soldier, but civilians as well.
The saving in food and fuel has been
enormous. Minister Boret figures
that the municipal restaurants. bv
purchasing food and fuel on a large
scale will be able to hold down prices
to fair level and prevent profiteer-
ing. At the same time the people
will be able to obtain food at about
actual cost. 1t is planned to deliver
food already prepared at the homes.
and 1t will compare with that served
IN the best restaurants. The saving
in money and labor will be so mark
ed that it is doubtful whether the
people will consent to the closing of
this municipal enterprise after the
war

The mercury is having a merry

tire community were not at all de-
pendent upon it.
This morning at S O'Clock when

the temperature registered 80 degrees
below zero. This is about the lowest
temperature recorded this winter in
Grand Forks. At noon today it was

On Thursday afternoon the tenn
perature was 25 degrees above zero.
1t almost reminded one of the APP
proach Of spring, although the ground
was white with snow. Then
ly. yesterday morning. the mercury
slid down to a point % degrees be-
low-in other words, a jump of near
~ SO degrees was experienced over
night. All during Friday it was pref
ty cold. the mercury lowering around
is below. and early last night a fur
ther decline took place. bringing it
down to 20 at about Z o'clock.
; While a rather strong wind was
blowing yesterday and made walking
decidedly uncomfortable, the absence
Of wind velocity today resulted IN inc
cold being felt less intensely. Early
in the day the sun began to shine
and the temperature rose a little in
consequence OF that fact.
~ But most of the time the streets
looked deserted and people stayed in
doors as much as possible. Whatever
business could be transacted over the
telephone, was so carried on, and
there was u decided disposition on
the part Of a majority Of citizens to
keep away from the frigidity in the
