FEDERATION OF LABOR MUST
DEAL WITH NEGRO WORKERS
VIII Be Asked to Handle Negro La
Dor, Both Men and Women,
Same as Whites.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-"A square
deal' for the negro working man

cial committee appointed last night
by the executive board of the Ma
tional Urban League Among Negroes
at the close of the annual session of
the organization.
The federation will be asked to in
clude in its organization of negroes
both skilled and unskilled worknen;
northern as well as southern work
men; government as we'll as civilian
employees, women as well as men
workers.

turning to work after a successful
strike, when shops are declared
"open" or closed" and when union
workers apply for jobs.

The OLD FASHIONED CARPET
BAGS SAID TO BE COMING BACK
Badge of Anathema in the South in
Reconstruction Is Likely to Be-
Come Fashionable Again.

The old-fashioned carpet bag which
used to be a badge of anathema in
the South in the days of reconstruc-
ton, is likely to come back into fash
ion again, according to the manufact-
urers of leather goods, who claim
that the hide supply is running so low
they can hardly fill their orders.
Now that the knitting bag con-
structed of flaming cretonne pat
terms has become such a common
sight throughout the country per-
haps the public will take a turn to
the carpet bag with very little shock.
In fact, it takes a great deal to shock
the American public these days. An
Atlanta paragraph writer remarks
that he doesn't believe the people
would quit scrambling for coal or
buying cemetery lots if the papers
should announce the end of the world
on March 1 at 8 o'clock a. m.
Look out for the carpet bag. 1t
will not mean in this day and time
what it used to mean.

JUICY GOVERNMENT
JOBS AT HOG ISLAND
MORE DECIDEDLY INTEREST
ING TESTIMONY is GIVEN
THE SENATE COMMITTEE.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There's a
lot of pork" in fat jobs at the Hog
Island shipyards, according to testi-
mony given the senate commerce
commission today. Publicity men and
laborers are landing a share of it,
if information given by Commander
Paul Reed, emergency fleet corpora
ton Inspector at the yard, is correct.
Reed told the committee today
that D. P. Pierce was drawing
$833.33 per month from the govern
ment as publicity manager; R. L..
Hunt S66.66 as assistant publicity
manager, and T. B. Reed $500 a
month as assistant publicity man
ager.
These men were employed, it is
said, to prepare publicity matter to
get workmen.
Reed admitted that che had heard
that workmen were listed on the
payroll under foremen and took
down wages for all the jobs they
were supposed to hold down.
The committee drew from Reed al
so that the government either bought
or hired automobiles for executive
officials of the corporation to ride
to and from the yard. Automobile
hire, he said, was $40 a day, while
machines purchased were limited to
a 81 200 maximum cost by the emer-
gency feet corporation.
Long Story of Malfeasance and
Infamy."
Tho Onoro+ioy, 6 +bo h.. Tel
shipyard became the subject of open
and bitter attack on the floors of both
houses of congress today. In the
senate Mr.. Vardaman, of Mississippi,
assaulted the conduct of the work as a
"long story of malfeasance and of in
fanny" on the part of ''plutocratic
patriots who give lip service to their
country and who are taking advan-
tage of this emergency to grow rich
err and richer still" He urged that
the story in "all its nakedness be laid
bare before the people of the coun-
try and asserted that some of the
patriots for pelf" should be sent to
the penitentiary.
In the house the revelations at
Hog Island were employed by Repre-
sentative Lenroot, OF Wisconsin, as
evidence to support an appeal he
made for a congressional commission
to oversee and investigate war ex-
penditures at Hog Island. Other
members referred to the disclosures
in the senate commerce committee as
proof of a loose system of governing
the flow of public money during the
war.
Senator McCumber, of North Da-
kota, drew the attention Of the senate
to the charges that have been made
before the commerce committee that
the government has been held up
for excessive prices for materials at
Hog Island, particularly cranes, and
that land that went begging for ST.
600 an acre was held for $4,000 an
acre when the government entered
the market.

HOBO SAID He WAS
HEIR OF JIM SMITH
WHEN .ARRAIGNED IN COURT
HE CLAIMED HE INHERITED
FARMERS MILLIONS.

In all probability no man who
ever lived had as many alleged par
ents, relatives of all kinds and heirs
as James M. Smith, the Georgia mil
lionaire farmer, after his death. A
recent interesting story of "rela-
tive" is told in dispatch from San
Francisco under headlines as follows:
millionaire Hobo Given Jail SEN
tence. Heir to $8,OOO,0OO. Could
Have Paid Fine, But Preferred Beg
gars and Wrecks For Friends"
Munchansen Has Rival.
The story which followed of this
peculiar millionaire" reads:
"Robert Allen, 81 years old, stepp-
ed forward from a number of va
grants, beggars and wrecks of hu-
mainly in Police Judge Brady's
court here to answer to a charge of
vagrancy. He pleaded guilty and
was sentenced to serve 80 days in
Jail.
Twill you give me the alternative
of fine, Judge?" he asked.
"What good would that do?' de-
manded the judge. You were arrest
ed for vagrancy and you have no
money. You couldn't pay the fine if
| levied one
"Thereupon Allen drew from his
pocket packet of legal papers
showing he is heir to S8,O00,0OO and
could raise $500,0OO by writing his
name to a check if he so desired.
Judge Brady asked Allen why he
was spending his life in rags and
begging on the streets.
'"That's the only life, judge said
Allen. 4 was happy until l came into
this money, left me by Col. J. NJ.

Der, 1915. Pm his only heir, but

MISSOURI FARM WOMAN

From her flock of single comb
Rhode Island Red hens Mrs. Christie
pher Fields, near Clapper, Mo-, sold
5,1231a dozen eggs for grand total
of $1,614.48 in 1917. Add to this
the $152.73 she received for chick

$1,000,000.
Once the demand for money was
made, it was stated, the mayor in

WHAT YOU CAN DO
TO help MATTERS
.wSON BANKER POINTS OUT
MANY THINGS EVERY ONE
CAN DO IN WAR TIMES.

"a few months ago many OF US
,,-sre earnestly asking ourselves
.,,bo+ can l do to help in this war
,,.or, that will let me feel that my
forts are of real consequence?
uAnv true-blue American can easily
answer that question now," says Mr..
covil1n of the Dawson National Bank.
..Tbere's so much for all of us, in
fsr- that our days are crowded
from rising till late at night and we
have a feeling that somehow our
h,,sioasses are coming to be second
oc,, And that is really the situation
for the finishing up of this war bus
moss must have priority over every
other general undertaking. Consider
the months ahead with spring and
another growing season only few
weeks away. Think of the innumer-
able WAYS in which men, women and
children of this community can as
sist in the nations war program.
There's gardens, vacant lots,
hack wards and all available open
snaces with fertile soil at hand.
Townspeople ought to get busy these
balmv. spring-like days. And consider
what the demand this year and next
,,,;r+ar will be for all kinds of poul-
try and eggs. Every settln' hen
should be encouraged and assisted,
and the incubators worked in double
shifts Every household can faithful
" observe the wheatless, meatless
and porkless days and meals with the
fuIl satisfaction of knowing that
each small sacrifice is putting more
food at the command of the peoples
who are face to face with the sui
fering and deprivation of actual war
fare.
"The farmers of the nation will
continue to feed hungry world, and
they should plan their farming
operations along lines that will
insure the greatest possible yield
from the biggest acreage they
can possibly take care of. This must
begin with unusual care in selec-
ton of seeds; it must be attended to
early. for good seed is a scarcity.
Let them look over their machinery
and equipment. Parts, and new ma
chimes must be ordered early; have
them on hand before they are need
ed. It's good business to buy labor
saving machinery that will offset as
much as possible the labor shortage
which will be felt this year. Banks
will gladly advance money for all
farming and livestock operations.
The farmers business is the sound
est of them all.
eve are being called upon to
make some sacrifices and we are do
ing so cheerfully. We can do much
more and we will. Meantime, let ev-
cry one with twenty-five cents or
more of idle money buy war saw
stamps. It's splendid form of in
vestment, inculcates the thrift and
savings habit, pays 4 per cent. COM
pound interest when turned into war
savings certificates and every penny
goes into the nations purse out of
which eventually it will all be re-
turned promptly on the day your
loans mature"
