More interest is taken in political matters since the War Savings drive ended, and from now until August 13 greater activity may be expected. The Red Cross bull sale Tuesday and July

 The pig iron production in Alabama for the first six months of 1918 is consider ably less than that of the first six months in 1917. This decrease is attributed largely to the inability of the furnace operators to get raw materials. The bis slump in coal production has affected the iron furnaces in about the same propor- tion that it has affected all other indus tries, and the only hope for an improve ment in the last six months of the year lies in an increased production of coal.
 The output of iron in June is unofi- cially reported to have been eoo,f5l tons as compared with $50 tons in June. 1917, and for the first six months in 1918, 1,270,776, compared with 1,46967i in the first six months in 1917. a decrease or leS,S9S tons
 There has been slight increase in coal production noted within the last three or four weeks, but not sufficiently large to encourage the hope that last year record will be reached by the end or De- cember. Some of the mines report longer working hours than obtained during the late spring and early summer, with con- seouent increased output, while others show the contrary.
 SLACKERS' BOARD ERECTED
 At a few of the mines a slaekers board has been Installed, Witn soou icsoieS' The name ot each miner is posted on this board when his time is turned m and remains there during the following day. 1t is stated that when some of the men saw their names missing they tried to have the.a put on the board, claiming that they had worked the day before. 1t is said the men at the mines where tnis system has been in opration now put in practically full time. Tabulations made from these bulletins are forwarded to the department of labor at Washington and will he part of the permanent ar chives of the government.

Des Moines, Aug. 15.-Iowa industries
virtually, face paralysis if present labor
conditions are not remedied, in the
opinion Of Governor w. L. Harding and
the state also will be unable to furnish
the unskilled labor requested by the
government.
This opinion was expressed by en-
ployers in the governors office today
when arrangements were made for the
statewide labor conference at the state
house next Tuesday.
William B. Wilson. federal secretary
of labor. and Assistant Secretaries
Felix Frankfurter and Barney Baruch
were telegraphed invitations to attend
the Tuesday meeting.
1t was pointed out that the lack OF
war contracts from the government has
made 1t impossible for certain Iowa in
dustries to hold their men, with the
government making frequent calls on
the state for unskilled laborers.
