PIG CLUBS HELP PORK
PRODUCTION IN U. s.

Pork production in the United
States has increased more than 40
per cent in the first 10 years of
this century. This is greater than
the increase in any other branch Of
livestock, says L. J. Allen, state pig
club agent for Oregon. 1t is largely
due to girls and boys club work.
Another result is more pure bred

STEEL STRIKE THREAT SENT
 JUDGE GARY Union Leader Says He Will Prove A. F. of l.. Con-
 trols Industry ONLY FEW DAYS LEFT, WARNS FITZPATRICK Only Tenth of Men Tn Mills and Mines Will Stop,
 Company Asserts

New York, Aug. 29.-John Fitzpat- rick chairman of the American Fed eration committee charged with en- rolling United States Steel Corporation employees, replied yesterday to Ebert represented a majority of the employees Il Garey's denial that the Federation, of the corporation. This denial fol- lowed Judge Garys refusal to receive delegation of the workers. Only a few days remained. he wrote, before his committee would have no other alternative but to enforce the decree of your employees whom we have the honor to represent"
 We have received your answer to our request on behalf of the employees of your corporation." the letter says, and we understand the first para graph of your answer to be an abso- lute refusal on the part of your cor pOrtation to Concede to your employees the right of collective bargaining.
 You question the authority of our committee to represent the majority of your employees. The only way by which we can prove our authority is to put the strike vote into effect, and we sincerely hope you will not force a strike to prove this point.
 We asked for a conference for the purpose of arranging a meeting where the questions of wages, hours, conditions of employment and collec- tive bargaining might be discussed. Your answer is a flat refusal for such conference.
 we read with great care your statement as to the interest the cor poration takes in the lives and wei fare of the employees and their fami- lies, and if that were true, even in q minor degree, we would not be press ing considera ton through a confer ence of the terrible conditions that ex:Se. The conditions of employment, the misery in the novels of the steel workers is beyond description. Surely this is q matter which might well be ] discussed in conference.
 You also made reference to the at titude of your corporation in not op- posing or preventing your employees from joining labor organizations. It ! is matter of common knowledge that the tactics employed by your corpora tion and subsidiaries have for years most efectually prevented any at tempt at organization by your en- i ployes.
 Some few days are still at the dis posaI of our committee before the time limit will have expired when there will be no discretion left to the | committee but to enforce the decree
 of your employees whom we have the
 honor 10 represent"
 From a source close to the manage ment of the corporation it was learned tthat MT. Gary's assertion that the American Federation of Labor did not i represent a majority of the employees
 was based upon a recent survey of all ! the corporations plants. The results showed that only about 10 per cent,
 or 6O,OOO, of the employees of the Uni ted States Steel Corporation were afr fliatcd with unions or were inclined
 to such affiliation.

DETECTIVES ID ESCORT NEGROES
 ID NEW YORK

Detectives Thampson and Sheuar of the New York Police department, who arrived in Bridgeport yesterday afternoon to escort back to Manhat- tan, William Johnson and George White. negroes, who are charged with stealing a car in New York. recog- nized the two men as brothers who were arrested in New York some time ago on similar charges.
 The negroes are known in New York as George and William White, and on account of their excellent war record they were discharged without punishment when arraigned in a New York court for the first time.
 George and William were both members of Colonel Bill Hayward's $ famous old 18th Regiment of New York City. They sailed to France with the lest of their regiment at the outbreak of the war, and fought in the Champagne sector where their outfit was brigaded with the French forces.

Climate had a great deal to do with this. The earlier civilizations four ished in sunny lands where grapes were made into wine and cereals into beer. People could get intoxicated upon these beverages, and they often did to a scandalOus degree, especially in the degenerate days of Greece and Rome, but the problem of alcohol is not so acute in places where wine and beer are the customary drinks as in places where distilled liquors are more in favor. The problem of dealing with alcohol in the lighter forms may be the same problem, but not so many people are interested in stopping it.
 The other great influence that led to the rise of temperance organiza- tions was the discovery of distillation, which made possible the production of whisky, brandy, gin, rum and similar hard liquors. People in southern lands gradually acquired a liking for these beverages, but the majority preferred

In the Middle Ages and even in an- cient times, there had been men who had cried out upon the evils of hard drinking. But not until the 18th cen tury do we find any widespread feel ing against alcohol.
 William Hogarth could hardly be called a temperance reformer, but on many occasions he designed picture that struck 9 heavy blow at the over indulgence in liquor that was creating such havoc in England. Quite as OI- ten he pictured drinking in a humOr- ous vein, and from his animated plates one gets a vivid idea of the way in which alcohol was part of the daily life of the people.
 Inns are often seen in his drawings, as in this picture called "Canvassing g for Votes" Here two innkeeperS are bribing a rustic voter. and the inn oc- cupies an important place in the cleo ton. At the door of the PortobellO alehouse a barber and a cobbler are

 Now that we are approach ching the rise of the temperance and prohibition movements it will be worth while to glance back for moment at past his tory and note it's earlier appearance. From the moment when prehistoric men first discovered that sugar by fermentation was converted into alco- hOl, it may be said that there have been advocates of temperance and prohibition. In many lands and in many centuries. refOrmers grappled with the problem. The evils of drunk enness were pointed out: sometimes drastic laws were passed to check in- toxication. But all these efforts were usually soon forgotten and to the ma joirty of people there was no temper ance question until comparatively modern times.

the wines and beers that their ances-
 tors had liked. But in the colder north these new drinks acquired in stant popularity.
 Drunkenness became so universal that it inspired temperance opposi- ton. There were signs in the London streets in the 18th century promising
 passersby that they could be drunk
 for a penny" or dead drunk for two pence'' Moderate drinking could
 hardly be practiced with the fiery spirits that were introduced and with their cheapness. So widespread grew the evil that these dives provided rooms with straw to lie upon where drunkards could sleep off their de- bauches without payment for beds. Women staggered openly in the streets. and so dreadful were the
 sights in certain parts of the mctrOp- oils that many persons who scoffed at temperance movements were convert ed by the sodden spectacles.
