MUST BE UP AND DOING

PHOENIX, Dec, 23.-The Arizona
State Council of Defense has receiv-
ed from the National Council of De-
efnse the following telegram:
Figures received by wire this
week by the United States Employ
ment service show decrease in de-
mand for labor and corresponding In
crease in supply. Speed in canceila-
ton of war contracts and demobili-
zation of army increasing daily.
Many industries hesitating to take
on ANY commitments at this time.
Building trades at a standstill and
probably will remain so until spring
unless every state community organ
ization and individual co-operates to
the fullest extent with the federal
service. There is grave danger OF
large, idle population after first of
year. Purchasing power of the
country at the present time is very
great and every possible means must
be used to stimulate business. Gov
ernment plans for providing employ
ment for all returning soldiers and
sailors and workers in war indus
tries can only be carried through
with realization of the situation by
the entire country. All contractors
for war materials who expect to lay
off workers should notify the United
States Employment Service at once.
All industries in need of help should
obtain the same through the federal
service"
There is in Arizona a completely
organized United States Employment
Service to which all such information
should be directed. While this state
may suffer less than many others
from the sudden readjustment OF
business condition, due to the armis-
tice, it is vital, as pointed out, that
cooperate in this work as recon-
mended by the National Council of
Defense.

his action. The Polish troops have or

Regarding the eastern frontier, of
Poland, it has been announced by
Polish military leaders that the peo-

if it comes to the shedding of blood.
Poland, however, according to the

About a mile and half east of the
business center of Colorado Springs
is located the Union Printers Home,
conceded to be the greatest monument
ever constructed for and by organ
lied labor. 1t is one of the show spots,
of Colorado, and is each year visited
by thousands of tourist. Since the
first structure on the Home grounds
was erected-at cost of 100000 in
1891, the total expenditures have
reached something over S1,7OO,OOO,
the buildings and grounds now ap-
proximating a value of $2,000,000.
The citizens of Colorado Springs
gave the International Typographical
Union eighty acres of ground for the
Home site, since which time 180 addi-
toinal acres have been purchased and
converted into a garden spot. 1t is
in every sense a home-not char
liable institution.
1t was during the Atlanta conven-
tion of the International Topographic
cal Union in 1890 that a vote was
taken definitely to build a Union
Printers Home, a gift of $4,000 from
George w. Childs, proprietor of the
Philadelphia Ledger, and A. ]. Drexel,
a leading banker of that city, having
formed a nucleus for building fund.
To this each member of the l. T. U.
contributed the amount Of one days
wages, followed by per capita tax
of 81.
At meeting of the board of trus-
tees, on November 10, 1890, it was de-
termined to build $50, 900 edifice, and
building committee was appointed,
to have charge of the work. On
March II, 1891, this committee
awarded the contract for the main
building at a cost of about 100000.
This amount did not include furnish
ings.
A recommendation that an assess
ment of 10 cents per month be levied
on the membership, to be applied to
the building and maintenance Of the
session of the International Typo
graphical Union in 1891, by the trus-
tees, and was adopted by the conven-
tion. 1t was further decided that the
anniversary of the birthday of George
w. Childs, May 12, 1892, should be
celebrated by the dedication Of the
Home.
As previously noted, May =, 1892,
was set aside for the dedication of the
Home. The city of Colorado Springs
was crowded with people from all
parts Of Colorado and many distant
points. The trade unions and civic
societies Joined in the monster parade
thru the city, after whcih they ad-
journed to the Home, where the Wis
itors were received by a committee Of
ladies from Denver and Colorado
Springs.
The exercises were held in the open
space in front of the Home. Vice
President Aimison of the board of
trustees opened with short address,
and was followed by the Rev. James
B. Gregg with a fervent prayer of
dedication. The Colorado Springs
band and the Pueblo Cowboy band
rendered several selections, after
which Governor Routt Of Colorado
Springs was introduced. His speech
was brief but appropriate. Following
him came Mayor Ira G. Sprague Of
Colorado Springs, who delivered a
short address, in which he paid a

high tribute to the printer and his
work, and extended a cordial welcome
to all strangers present. James Nc
Kenna, first vice-president of the
International Typographical Union,
responded to the mayors address Of
welcome. The most conspicuous fig
ure on the platform, George w. Childs,
was then introduced. Cheers greeted
his introduction and followed the con-
clusion of his talk. Leon Hartigan, a
Creede printer, read specially pre-
pared poem by Eugene H. Munday,
the poet printer. August Donath gave
an interesting history of the Home,
and was succeeded by Senator Jacob
H. Galliger of New Hampshire, an old
typo, who delivered the principal ora
tion of the day.
Short talks were made by Mr.. Cap
peller, president of the National Edi-
torial Association, and Bishop Nc
Laren. Letters were received and
read from John G. Whites, George
w. Curtis and the acting editor-in-
chief of the New York World, ex-
pressing good wishes. The benedic-
tion by Dean A. r. Kiefer of Grace
church, Colorado Springs, fittingly
closed the services of the day, after
which the building was opened for in
spection.
Last year, in August, the silver jubi-
lee and twenty-fifth anniversary of the
founding of the Home was celebrated
by the annual convention of the /.
