country was in such a state that we
discovered that it would be impossible
for the company to secure the money to
go ahead with the construction, as at

There was therefore nothing for US

were brought about that would make it
possible to go ahead and secure the ma

The financial situation is looking

MCGEE is the Harrison Gray Otis

Of a newspaper. His name will make
a fine slogan in the battle this fall.
Senator Kellogg Of Minnesota, who
is notably active on behalf Of corpor-
alton interests-such as railroad, tele-
graph, shipping and mining and steel
companies-is taking a very great
concern in this labor-farmer move
ment. It is understood to be quite
possible that overtures will be made
to Wheaton, the Democratic nominee,
to withdraw from the race, SO that no
man hostile to the steel and milling
companies in the state shall be chosen

Provided, that no money now or

ment Of wages not fixed by statute
shall be available to pay wages in
excess Of the standard determined
upon by the war labor policies board. !"
The language has now become law.
The labor department Is trying to
find out how broad . maximum wage
law has been enacted, by this brief
sentence. The words clearly do not
apply to this one paragraph. They
apply to all money now or hereafter
appropriated for the payment Of
wages not fixed BY statute" That
seems to cover the wages paid in
every. plant run by the government,
outside the wages especially fixed by
