On February 10 Harrison Allen and
j. e. Ferguson were in Independence
and a meeting was held February 20

the Isis theater in which these men
made the proposition to those present

handle string beans, cabbage, carrots,
celery, spinach, turnips, beets, potatoes,
corn, onions and such fruits as they
can secure, Including pears, apples,
peaches, plums, prunes, LoSanberries
and smaller fruits.
The citizens Of Independence have

Four men were placed in the field

Liberty Loan and Red Cross cam
paigns. This plan OF labor quotas IL
a protection for all communities.
The object is TO keep any commun-
ity from being drained OF labor. and
TO use local supply. as far as possi-
BILE. for local demand. The situa-
tion, however. Is such that in certain
cases some men may have to be
transported over long distances.
You will note from the above out
line that this is ~ probably the most
drastic action that the Government
has taken since putting the National
Army draft into effect. The absolute
necessity for this program can be
seen when II Is realized that in Pitts-
burg, for instance. there are adver-
tlsements calling for men TO 90 to
Detroit; while in Detroit street cars
there are posters calling for men TO
60 to Pittsburg. This same condi-
tion 10 apparent all over the United
States and in consequent shifting OF
labor great part OF our war effort
ia dissipated.
Because Il is only through the
press OF the Nation that this matter
can be fully presented to the people.
we are asking that you lay this mat
ter fully and frankly before your
readers-showing them that this ac-
tIon Is taken as war measure In
order to protect not only employers
and the employed, but communities
as we'll.
Yours respectfully,

Director General.

Pineapples Catch Crop

Although pineapples are grown rather extern

this fruit being of the most fouriShing of the
minor industries there appears TO be little definite
information available to the acreage and actual
production in the different localities according to
Consul Harry Campbell, detailed as vice consul
at Singapore, Straits Settlements
Pineapples are for the most part raised
catch crop in connection with rubber plantations,
since they can be grown very easily and with little
cost between the rubber trees during the first
two or three years of their growth This pro-
cedure has been especially attractive TO planters
(mostly Chinese) having small holdings on the
island of Singapore 1t affords the planter an In
come during the years that the rubber trees are
coming into bearing. while proximity to the can
ming factories of Singapore makes the marketing
simple and inexpensive.
II is estimated that about 1000 acres of pine
apples were planted rubber estates on the
island Of Singapore in 1915. Any definite figures
as to acreage In other parts of the peninsula are
not available. but ii appears that the industry In
the Federated Malay states is not important, be-
ing limited almost entirely to small plots for local
market purposes.
The value of the exports of pineapples from the
Straits Settlements during 1916 was $2,5oe910.
