New York's Food and Coal
Supply Is Placed in
Jeopardy
ABOUT $4,000 MEN
WENT OUT TODAY
Ferryboats, Steam Lighters,
ToWboats, Coal Barges,
Etc, We're Tied Up

New York Jan. 9.--With approximate
" $4,000 men affected, the strike of the
marine workers utilization went into eff
feet here at 6 o'clock this morning. At
that hour ferryboats, steam lighters,
towboats, coal barges, grain boats and
other harbor craft were at standstill,
according to the strike leaders
The strike, called notwithstanding a
threat by the government to operate the
harbor with soldiers and sailors, was
ordered yesterday when a conference of
the union men and the Boat 0owners'
association broke up following the re-
fusal Of the latter to arbitrate the ques,
ton of an eight hour wage. The war
labor board was unable to effect a set.
Element Of the differences.
While the strike at present has not
been applied to coastwise steamers,
coastwise tugs, trans Atlantic steam
ships or Long Island sound steamers, the
labor leaders said it might eventually
spread to those lines and throw out of
employment 10000 longshoremen and
freight handlers
The tieup, according to strike leaders
York to crisis as regards food and coal,
and they predict that within "a hours
the milk situation here would be much
more serious. The city's milk supply,
already greatly decreased through a
strike Of the Dairymen's league, now will
be further depleted, the strikers say,
through inability to get the milk usually
sent here from New Jersey
Staten island, comprising Richmond
borough Of the city, was completely iso-
lated by the strike. Municipal ferry
boats plying from lower Manhattan and
Brooklyn to st. George, Staten island,
made their last trip at o'clock, though
city officials had predicted the strike
would not affect that service. The ferry
service between lower Manhattan and
Brooklyn also stopped
As soon as the strike order became eff
fective hundreds Of police reserves, aid
ed by naval reserves, were placed on
guard at the municipal ferry houses. At
that time, strike leaders predicted that
the harbor traffic would be completely
paralyzed
Union officials announced that all the
city's fire and police boats would be tied
up by the calling out of their crews.
They explained that it would probably
be noon before all ferry transit was dis.
continued, owing to the time consumed
in reaching all the members with the
strike call If necessary, in order to
win the strike, they threatened to call
out the longshoremen, numbering 10000
men.

Highways.
During the past two seasons, work
upon our permanent highways has of ne
cessity been very much curtailed. The
rapid advance in the price of labor, its
scarcity and the increase in the cost of
such materials as 60 into highway work,
all contributed to bring this about. In
addition to this the national government,
through its proper boards, insisted upon
only such work being begun as would be
of advantage in the conduct of the war
Now that the war is over, highway work
must again be strongly pushed, either
under our present system or under such
a plan as may in the end seem best to
you. You must however, bear in mind
that while some restrictions have been
removed, it is not probable that in the
immediate future the cost of road ma
terial viii be lessened to any appreciable
degree.
With half a million men kept in the
service, with no immediate immigration
and with an estimated loss in immigra
ton for the last five years Of from four
to five million, we have no reason to ex-
pect, even when conditions become set
tied, a surplus of labor or much reduc-
tion in daily wages The national gov
eminent is as yet apparently undecided
as 10 what its highway policy is to be.
The construction OF trunk line roads with
federal aid will probably be the outcome.

1908 there was expended for permanent
improvement of highways Sl47 sol. 90, In
1917 this had reached, including mainte-
nance, SS7l,57l.26. OF the first amount
500 S06.50 was from the state treasury
and of the latter 1925, 1850. Since 1902
we have expended upon our permanent
highways, including maintenance, engi-
neering service drawbridges and the
Sand Bar bridge, S7,l6S,442.21 or sub
stsntially. S475, 900 each year. How much
more the state can afford to do, if any
thing, is an open question about which

How a Father Has Learned to
Save Shoe Bills.

MY son is very hard on shoes, so
keeping him properly shod has been
quite an expense to me, writes Mr.. /.
Allison Allen, of Amity, Arkansas.
But since / started to buy Neolin-
soled shoes for him have found that
it costs only about a third as much to
keep him in shoes. "
This is because Ne6lin Soles are so
tough and durable that they wear
very long time. Shoe bills are kept
down because you don't need so many
pairs.
You can get Ne6lin-soled shoes at
almost any good shoe store. They
come in all styles and for all members
of the family. Ne6lin Soles are also
available everywhere for re-soling.
They are produced by scientific pro-
cess to be what soles ought to be: COM
Portable, waterproof and long-wearing.
They are made by The GOODYEAR Tire
& Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio, who
also make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed
to outwear any other heels.

Some legislation should be enacted

The United States department of la
Dor, through its Investigations anent
the cost of building at the present
time as compared with pre-war times
is bringing to light much information
that can be used to advantage by those
contemplating building as soon as the
cost of building material has come
down to pre-war prices. Their inves-
LEGATIONS show that the cost of con-
structing wooden buildings at the
present time is AZ per cent higher
than it was before the war while the
cost Of concrete building is 80 per
cent higher than at that time. Their
Investigations show further that the
cost of building is at present commen-
4ssttssfi 1atte with safe investment and that
there should be no hesitancy in going
into building operations because of
prices of material. In considering the
selection of material for building pur-
poses the preference should be given
to wooden construction.

them as being prospective, while in
fact they are already erected and in
