No More Control OF
Food by Government

Beginning Saturday, Feb. l, the last
vestige OF government control over
United States food supplies and food
consumption will have been released,
and the United States Food Admins
tration will have ceased to exist as far
as its relations with the people are
concerned.
Washington has just ordered the
Colorado food board. in common with
the other state food administrations,
to give honorable discharges" to its
paid employees, close up its Denver
headquarters and county offices, an
nounce the resembling of all food reg
ulations and wind up its affairs as
speedily as possible. For this latter
job, Robert j. Grant, executive man
:ager of the Colorado food board;
Frank L. Woodward, deputy food ad-
ministrator. and William H. Delleker
treasurer, and one stenographer will
be retained-probably until the mid
die of February.
Sunday, January 26, food admins
tration control of the prices OF sugar,
ham, bacon. oleomargarines, and but
ter substitutes ended. At the same
time the regulations applying to dis
tribution of these articles were de-
clared off.
The resembling of these regulations
and maximum margins leaves only a
very few regulations affecting whole
salers still In force. These will be
also removed February l.

600 immigrants.
For ten years previous to 1914
we absorbed over a million year
The returning armies are not
going to disturb labor conditions
as much as many imagine.
Wars make individuals restless,
discontented and hence there is
an enormous labor turnover.
There is no normal labor supply
possible in times of normal pros
perity without large foreign i'm
migration.
The first generation born of
immigrant parents under the
transforming power Of the Melt
ing Pot are unwilling to do hard
work as common laborers.
Our country will always need
some immigrants from crowded
countries to supply the demand
for labor on the farms, in the
mines, and in conducting all the
raw material industries.
There is no question about that.
The only question is how many do
we need and of what character.
For certain sections the indust-
tries prefer northern Europeans,
other sections prefer Orientals.
Those who would exclude all
immigration take a narrow view
of national traditions and nation
al needs for development.

strike to take place July ''4th: /:
"This general strike is revolution .

In the three hours debate
President Wilson's name was his

The American Federation of la

Metal Mining Waiting
Labor ReadiuStment

Gold production in the United States
in 1918 fell to 3.313.Oo0 fine ounces.
worth 6S,493, 900, the lowest in 20
years.
Silver production dropped to 67,-
$4,000 fine ounces. worth $67,S79,O00,
at the standard government price OF
81 an ounce.
This is the smallest record since
1918, according to government reports.
California led as gold-producing
state, the estimate showing S32,3s9
ounces, valued at $17,207,0 900.
Colorado ranked second with 621,791
ounces. valued at $12,s53,O00.
Montana, with 15,341,000 ounces,
was the principal silver-producing
state, while Utah gave 13.439,00
ounces, Idaho 10,1Ss,0OO and Nevada
and 10,115,000.
The nation has not met the problem
of declining production of the precious
metals.
Total copper production fell off and
in 1918 was far under normal.
The low price prevailing for copper
and lead coupled with high cost OF
production has necessitated great
curtailment of production since sign
ing of armistice and pending a return
of somewhat normal conditions.
Western states are interested In
maintaining conditions encouraging to
the mining industry.
