As the. season for canning fruits Is
now at hand housewives arc anNiously
inquiring into the sugar situation that
they may know just what they arc
going TO be able TO put up. NO Relief
For Sugar Shortage" was the heading
Of an article printed in Thursday
evenings Times Republican which ex-
plains that 1t will be practically i'm
possible 20 relieve the situation for
some time to come" according to
George y. Zabriskie president of the
United States equalization board.
In an effort tc find the exact con-
ditions locally, it appears that so far
as known now this applies in Mar
shalltown. altno some grocers were OF
| the opinion that by next week the sit
uation would be slightly better than il
IS this week.
\ small amount Of sugar arrived IN
the city this week hut it was only
enough to allow the retailer. who had
had none, 10 give his customers one
pound at a time.
Sugar Situation Not Bright.
More sugar is expected in the city
next week TO relieve the situation, but
even so ii will not be enough to allow
the housewife to buy sugar for can
ming purposes. The outlook for sugar
n amounts to use for canning seems
very dark and neither retailers nor
wholesalers care to make n statement
as TO when any where nearly normal
shipments will be received again.
They give as the reason that prom
. jsed shipments are so often latS in ar
irving and that there are so many and
varied causes for the shipment to be
cancelled altogether. All agree that
by October the supply should be near
ing normal wiSe SONG expect 4 big
change for the better within a few
weeks At any rate the chance for the
housewife getting large amounts OF
canning sugar IN the near future seem
very small.

MAN WHO SERVED IN ARMY Il MONTHS
 BECOMES CITIZEN

Andrea Frank Granone, an Italian who served in the United States army overseas for II months, was admitted to citizenship yesterday.
 The young soldier presented his hon. orable discharge to Judge Neterer af- ter stating he had been in France with the 314th ammunition train.
 A. F. Eldredge. United States na- turalization examiner, conducted the continuation and the soldier gave ready answers to the questions, demonstrat- ing his knowledge of the constitution of the United States.
 Mr. Eldredge stated that there were few people who understood the na- turalization law relative to soldiers, and said "a person who joined the all lied forces after April 6, 1917, did not lose his citizenship for the reason that no person can expatriate himself or herself while the United States is al war. Forms for repatriation may be had by applying to the clerk of the United States district court.
 Quoting the law, Mir. Eldredge con tinued, Any person who while citi- zen of the United States and during the existing war in Europe entered the military or naval service of any coun. try at war with which the United States is now at war, who shall bt deemed to have lost his citizenship by reason of any oath or obligation taker by him for the purpose of entering suci service may resume his citizenship by taking the oath of allegiance to tn, United States prescribed by the ma turalization law and regulation. anc such oath may be taken before any court of the United States or of an, state authorized by law to naturaliz' aliens or before any consul of thu United States"
 In addition to the soldiers applica ton the court also heard the applica ton of Fred Charles Bolin. a Britisl subject, to whom the oath was admin istered.
 MT. Eldredge left last evening fo Los Angeles and will return here il November.

Exhibit Shows How Cotton Is
 Used In Tires

From the cotton in the boil to the finished product in the shape of giant Goodyear Cord tire, is the ex- hibition furnished by the Goodyear Tire company, pioneers in the rais- ing of cotton on an extensive basis in the valley.
 The exhibit shows cotton in every form until it reaches the tire. Sew eraI stalks of cotton show it as it comes from the bosom of Mother Earth. It is then shown after so- ing through the gin, and on through at least dozen steps until it reach- es the cord fabric.
 The Goodyear booth was the cen ter of hundreds of interested eyes during the entire day yesterday. It was the first concrete examples of the use to which valley cotton is put ever shown here.

Griffen, in order that the staple from this section of the country should retain it's. superiority over any cotton grown in the world.
 County farm agent, H. C. Heard, a man who has followed the develop ment of cotton in the Salt River val ley from it's infancy to it's present great expansion, stated that the slogan of the people who are growing cotton should be the best cotton for Arizona. Pima long staple cotton, stated MT. Heard. is the finest to be found any where, and it must be kept that way. This is only possible, he stated, through the securing of the best seed obtainable and the rotation of crops. He especially emphasized the neces- sity for the rotation of crops.
 W. H. Knox, manager of the Ari- zona Cotton Growers association, fol- 1 lowed MT Heard on the program. He 1 took for his subject The Salt River i Valley Labor Situation" The labol 1 situation here, according to Mir. Knox ! is much better than that found 1T other states near by, but it will not remain so if steps are not taken tC see that importation of labor is al 1 lowed next year. There is danger l that Mexicans will not be allowed entrance in this country next season he stated, but that influence was be 1 ing brought to bear to better thi! 1 threatened situation. Proper legisla
 ton is needed, and needed at once he declared.

Cotton Gin In
 Full Blast at
 Mesa Carnival

A cotton gin working in full blast is one of the features of the Mesa Cotton Carnival. E. G. Ataway or the Ataway Phelps Hardware com pany is the man, who thought Of the unique exhibit. The gin is of but ore stand, being one of few extra on hand for the season. It will be in full operation this morning, mak- ing frequent stops in order that those who have never seen one m operation may investigate its nys- Ieries.
 A peculiar thing about the gin, is that it is made in London. This is explained by Mir. Ataway by the fact that the English were the first to develop long staple cotton. 1t takes a special gin for that brand, and it remained for the English to improve on the American gin, in- vented to care for the short staple product.

EXHIBITS 1T FAIR ATTRACT ATTENTION
 IF MANY VISITORS

One of the distinct features of the cotton carnival at Mesa is the exhibits maintained there during its existence, not only by the merchants of Mesa but by others interested in the sue cess of the project.
 The carnival is, of course, for amusement only but the exhibits are for both entertainment and education. The Mesa commercial club has fur nished an exhibit of products grown in the valley which is second to none ever shown. It is under the direction of L. w. Otto, head of the agricultural department of the Mesa high school. E.

Seattle, Sunday.-The local Un- ions committee this morning voted to continue the general strike whereupon the street car mems un- ion withdrew from any further par ticipation in the sympathetic strike and upon holding a meeting, voted to resume work, and at seven o. clock all Seattle Traction company' lines were running on schedule.
 Many other unions withdrew from the general strike, and it is believ- ed that by this action the backbone of .ne Seattle General strike has been broken.
 Notwithstanding the action talk en Dy the Street Car Mems union and the several other union or ganizations in withdrawing from the strike, and. voting to resume work. the decision of the radical leaders of several of the unions urg' ing their members to continue the strike resulted in that action being taken.

SEATTLE UNIONS DEFEAT BDLSEWSN IN AMERICA BY ENDING SRIK

Daring the time between 1:15 O. clock today and noon tomorrow eff for+p will be made by the Labor leaders to get many of the unions which have returned to work to WalF out again and remain until the time ordered by the Cen tral Council to again resume work. With the exception of only three or four cases, all Unions returned to work early this morning and the business life of this city had again become normal by nine o'clock.
 When the various unions learned that the general sympathetic strike had been engineered by men who were seeking to overthrow the gov ernment and substitute Russian Bol- shevism instead, the union men, loy- al to the United States and the country's principles, saw that there was nothing for them to do but to return to their respective places of occupation.
 As a result of the collapse of the undertaking nothing has been accomplished for the local unions say s split in the organizations.
 While it is agreed that the ship var. workers had a grievance, it is fully understood that this will be a matter for the men employed in the shipyards to settle with the build CTS and the government.
 The shipyard workers are still out. and their strike will be settled, undoubtedly by arbitration within the next twenty-four hours.
 The several Unions were request ed to attend meetings at which they Were addressed by prominent busi- ness men and patriotic citizens, and ia almost every case where mem bers Of Union were thus addressed, they immediately voted to desert the Central Labor Council, and as pa triotic citizens return to their work. It was clearly pointed out to them that while the general strike was obstensibly called sympathetic strike by the radical leaders who wers almost all shown up to be for eigners, and that the motives of such strike was unpatriotic, the men lost no time in notifying their employers that they were ready to return to their work.
 By the voluntary action of the men in returning to work, well in formed men claim that it was one of ihe greatest patriotic demonstrations that labor could make to their gov ernment, and at the same time deal the revolutionary leaders the hard est blow at their efforts to over throw the government.
 While there have been several minor disorderly scenes, on the whole the entire affair has been con ducted in a determined effort and order was at all times advocated by the more conservative men. It was only the radical foreign leaders who advocated drastic or reVolu tionary measures should be resort ed to in order to bring about vic tory for the Unions.
 l. is belieyeI that the labor un- Ions have dealt themselves hard blow from which it will take long tim for them to recover.
