IN LABOR FEUD
Electrical Workers Gradually Sign.

Wanted Open Shops

Members of the electrical work
ers' union are gradually making
Roadway in their feud with the con-
tractors whom they are fighting,
claiming that many of the contrac~
tors in Davenport and a few in
Rock Island and Moline are holding
out against union labor, and whom
they accuse of trying to bring
about open shop conditions by ship
ping in "scab" labor.
Every member of the electrical
workers union, inside wlremen
branch, is working and all are re-
ceiving the 70 cents an hour wage
that has been their goal in the bat
ties conducted in the past. They
are working at the Rock Island ar
senaI and on the government hous-
ing projects, and also for a number
of contractors who have signed up
to employ union labor and to pay
the stipulated wage. However, a
number of contractors in Davenport
have failed to recognize the union
and will pay only the former wage
which was 6712 cents an hour.
Members Of the union expect that
some sort of an agreement will be
reached as soon as the information

enter the controversy. He was ia

BAD BREATH
Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets Gel

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, act gently on the
bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated
tablets are taken for bad breath by
adj who know them.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets act gently
but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any
of the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening
gripping cathartics are derived from
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, pain or any disagreeable effects,
Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac.
tice among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.

Paris.-Not "best Sellers" but
serious works are the literary re-
freshment demanded by the Ameri-
can soldiers in France. The soldier
is a serious-minded person. with de
cided intellectual views, all reports
to the contrary. He revelled in the
trench slang and faced death with d
grin, but now, with months of in
activity upon him he demands ex-
ercise for his mind. something to
fit him for a better place in Ameri-
ca. This is the most intelligent ar
my in history. The American Y NJ.
c. A. in France came to this conclu-
sion when a group of 300 dough
boys, asked what they would like as
light reading matter, spoke up with
one voice and demanded books on
applied mathematics. They were so
much in earnest about it that the
Y. NJ c. A. decided to start its first

LUTHERANS PLAN
RAISING MILLION
DR.. BrandeIIe Attends Session in
Chicago Which Acts to Save
Europe from Anarchy.

"The greatest hour for the Luth-
eran church of America" This
marks a new day for our church &"
''F'iVe hundred thousand dollars is
not enough to bother with, we will
make it a million" Our Lutheran
church is called to save Europe
from anarchy"
These were some Of the express
sions heard on the floor of the Lu-
theran congress held at the Cen
trail Y. NJ. c. A, Chicago, yesterday
to plan for the reconstruction pro-
gram OF the Lutheran church and
make provision for the raising Of
the funds.
Leading Lutherans, clergy and
laymen from every state of the
union had been invited to be pres
ent and take part in the program.
The result was what is considered
TO be the most representative Luth
eran gathering held in decades. The
various synodical presidents were
present: Dr. G. A Brandelle, Rock
Island, president of Augustana
synod; Rev. c. H. Schuette. Of Co
lumbus, president of the Ohio syn
cd; Rev. F. Richter, OF Waverly,
Iowa, president of the Iowa synod;
Rev. F II. Knubei, of New York,
president OF the United Lutheran
church; Rev. J. Matsen, president
of the Danish church. In addition
to the synodical presidents, there
were present leading men from ev-
cry state of the union who had been
secured as state chairmen in the
nrEnnGnh or
their respective states.
The congress opened in the
morning with Rev. L. Larsen, of
Washington, as chairman. The top
&c was the need of the present hour.
It was the sense of the meeting that
immediate action must be taken to
get into Europe to survey the sit
uation and see precisely what can
and must be done Commissions
are being organized to go abroad
and make the survey.
The afternoon meeting was given
over to the plan Of organizing the
campaign, the dates are Feb. 1926.
1t is proposed to organize an army
of canyasserS in every state of the
union, totaling 10000, to make a
personal visit to every Lutheran
and bring the appeal home to them.
The state chairman agreed to go
'the limit"
In the evening a mass meeting
was held at which DR.. C. ]. Smith
of New York, and President l.. w
Doe, of st. Olaf's college, North
field, Mimi, were the speakers. DR..
c. ]. Smith had just returned from
France being a member of the Lu-
theran mission to that country. DR..
Smith portrayed the need overseas
and said
Our hour has come. For the
Lutheran church of America this
means the dawn of a new day Our
spiritual opportunities are beyond
measure. The state churches of
Europe are passing. We must and
can bring them spiritual democ-
racy."
Preceding the campaign for
funds, it was decided to hold a great
campaign of education between
Feb. PIG. Mass meetings are ar
ranged for every important Luth-
eran center from Boston to Seat
tie and from Duluth to Galveston,
New Orleans and Savannah.

REDUCE NUMBER
HOUSE WORKMEN
Government Projects are Being
Delayed On Account OF
Shortage Materials.

Reduction in the number of
workers employed on government
housing projects in the quad-cities
can be looked for from now on.
1t is said that in Davenport q
marked reduction IN the Number o.
workmen will take place, and that
none but the most skilled mechan-
les will be retained.
In Rock Island, Moline and East
Moline it is said from authentic
sources that not over a half-dozen
workmen will be laid off a day.
Reduction in the number of
workmen is said to be due to the
shortage of materials.
At present there are 1857
workmen employed on the govern
ment housing projects on this side
of the river. 1t is claimed that the
projects here are about So per cent
finished and it is believed that the
final completion of the projects
will come about in the next few
weeks and then the entire num-
Der of workmen will be without
Jobs.

ISLANDERS LEAVE
TO PLAY PAIR OF
BASKET OUINTETS

Tomorrow night the Rock Island
high school squad of BASKET shoot
ers will make trip to Kewanee
and play Kewanee high school. On
Saturday they will go to Abingdon
for game there that night. AL
though nothing is known of the
opposing teams the Islanders have
no fear Of losing and are confident
that they will come out with the
long end of the score. These are
the first out of town games which
the locals have played and the re-
suits will give some dope on the
outcome of the annual tournament
on March l in Galesburg. Rock Is
land came second last year but
after defeating Galesbu-g, Daven-
port and East Moline. there is
hope for the local school to cop
first place.
