HOARDERS OF BOOZE.
BEWARE!
"Drys" May Make Private Storing of
Liquor Illegal.

Washington, July I5.-A mans
right to keep liquor in his own home
which stood the test before the
House judiciary committee, must take
its chances now in the House.
Notice was served today on the
committee by one of its members
that when the House resumes con-
sideration of the prohibition enforce
ment measure an amendment would
be offered to make it unlawful for a
person to retain possession of liquor
stored prior to July I. The commit
tee, in framing the general enforce
ment measure, eliminated the section
which would have made home storage
illegal, but the big majority polled
yesterday by prohibitionists was ac-
cepted in some quarters to mean that
the bill in certain respects will be
made still more drastic.
Prohibition leaders do not expect
to resume work on the measure be-
fore Thursday or Friday.

Profit of Packers, 40 Million.

Chicago, July 11.-Thomas E. Viii
son, president of Wilson & Co., in
speaking today of the report of the
Federal Trade Commission, which
charged the packers of the country
monopoly of practically
all food products, said the commits
sion had failed to call attention to
the fact that the food administration
permitted the packers to earn a
bles upon capital invested.
The food administrations report,
accordin gto Mr.. Wilson, shows the
profit of the five larger packers, for
the year ending November I, 1913,
was a little more than 40 million dol
lars on an investment of more than
S7I4, ,ooo, 900, making a net profit of
Sc per cent, or 3.4 per cent less than
that authorized by the government.

LOST 4s CENTURIES OF TINE
Industrial Disputes in New York
State Caused Much Idleness.

Albany-More than forty-eight
centuries of lost time may be
charged against the 265 industrial dis
putes in New York State in the year
ended June 80, 1918, as shown in the
annual report OF Deputy Commis-
sioner Frank Bret Thorn, in charge
of the Statea Industrial Commis-
sions Bureau OF Mediation and Ar
bitration. In other words, 26s
strikes are charged with 1,51o,S84
days of idleness of 83,65o persons di-
rectly involved, and 6,355 persons
were thrown out OF work thereby.
Mr.. Thorn's report shows that
while there were eos strikes and lock-
outs i'll New York State in the year
ended June 80, 1913, as against 234 in
the year ended June 80, 1917, there
were I44,o5I ,persons directly i'll
volved and 1876 indirectly, with
total Of 2,6oo,335 days of idleness.
Mr. Thorn goes on:
"Of the strikes reported in this
period IS3 arose out of a demand for
an increase of wages, and only one
arose from all attempt on the part of
the employer to reduce wages. De-
mand for the recognition of the union
was the cause of strikes in thirty-one
cases, and in eight cases working
conditions caused strikes. Longer
hours of labor was the cause of no
strike during this period. Twenty
eight strikes occurred on account of
the employment or discharge of par
ticular persons in plants.
Out of total of eos strikes re-
ported to the bureau during this
period, IIo were successful, forty
nine partly successful, and ninety
seven were lost to the strikers. In
the previous year sixty-two were sue
cesstul, seventy-five were partly
successful and ninety-seven were lost
out of the total of 234 reported.
A comparison of these figures
shows that larger percentage of the
strikes occurring in 1918 was success
ful than in 1917, a smaller percentage
was partly successful, and that the
same number of strikes was lost in
1913 as in IoI7."-New York World.
