More firmly convinced than ever
that only through the stabiliza-s
ton of the cost of labor by the
adoption of certain economies
VIII make for increased produce
ton can the cost of building be ma
terially reduced, architects and build
ers interviewed by The American
Architect this week, generally agreed
that there soon must come a further
breaking away from many existing
stereotyped methods of operation. The
decided opinion was, that if the work
man is persuaded to assume a more
interested attitude in his work and
endeavor to fully cooperate with his
employer for the good Of the organiza
ton, that real economies can be made
in many directions.
Unless this condition is reached -
unless worSmen employed in the con-
struction of houses endeavor to pro-
vide better efficiency, combined with
increased output, and fully realize
their responsibility not only to the
community but to themselves there
can be no hope of an improved hous-
ing situation within the coming
months. In the New York district it
had been hoped that with the final
signature affixed to the contract be-
i tween the building trades council and
the Building Trades Employers asso-
citation that it did not intend to aban-
don the open shop. This association
alone of all the trades in the building
: industry, has persistently fought at
tempts to adopt the policy of the clos
ed shop.
There remains to be seen just what
effect this independent action will
have on building operations project
ed in New York, which, it is estimat-
ed. will be over 10000, 0o0 1t is a de-
eidedly disturbing development. how
ever, for under the 1920 building con-
tract just signed union men employ-
ed on building operations where non
union men are working are permitted
to strike.
i Architects have been appealed to
with the hope that a solution can be
written to members of the architec-
tural profession asking aid in restat-
ing their attitude toward the open
shop by the insertion in all contracts
for the erection of structural steel
work of a labor clause. Not only does
the new agreement provide for 1920,
but a clause has been signed provid-
ing for a 1921 wage schedule under
the following terms:
Should the cost of living material

CALLS FOR COOPERATION
And q Better System of Farmers
Organization

F. M, McRee, new commissioner
of agriculture, appeals to the far
mers of Tennessee to put forth
their greatest efforts and to CO.
operate and organize to the end
that the, best results may be at
aimed. Following we reproduce
! portion of that appeal:
| wish to call the attention of
the great farming masses of our
state at the close of this great war
% the importance of closer CO.
operation and better system of
organization. We must work for
petter markets and for cheaper
transportation, that we get results
rot only for ourselves, but for all
Who are connected with our farm
ng interests. The demands upon
he American farmer are greater
han ever before. Our big broth
RS across the waters are not only
ooking to US, but are depending
lpon the farmers of these United
States for bread and for meat.
With such conditions it behooves
you as farmers to produce more
bushels of wheat and corn and
larger amount of livestock than
YOU have ever produced before,
and in order to do that we must
nave cooperation, and with the
aelp of the federal and state GOV
4rnments we can not only double
put, in my opinion, treble our pro-
duction. am of the opinion that
every county should have an agri-
cultural association or a county
agent and be in touch with the ex-
perience furnished by the general
government and BY the state uni
versity. Our agricultural expert
nent stations ahould draw people
from the entire district they are
located in.

A BOLD HOLD-BP
A Man Sluggsd and Robbed on q
POpuIOGs Street

John Thomas Williams was
knocked down and robbed on West
Paris street, in front of Joe
Priests residence last Tuesday
night about midnight.
Mr.. Williams and bis 12 or 10
year old son had been to the shoG
and after returning to their home
on the CA. Belew lot, near where
West Paris street crosses the
railroad, and changing their
clothes, started out to a relative
on the Bryant farm where they
expected to work the next day.
They were overtaken by three
negroes, one of whom knocked
Williams down with a piece OF
timber, and while down they
rided his pockets and ran. They
were seen to cross East Paris street
between E. NJ. Norman's and Mrs
Matte Johnson's, running at full
speed into Baptist bottom.
Mr.. Williams yelled murder"
attracting the entire community,
and several of the neighbors rushed
to his rescue, but the negroes had
gone. A doctor was secured, and
the wound, which is an ugly cash
across the head, was dressed.
Wednesday his condition was
thought to be serious, but at last
accounts, he was better.
Sheriff Alden and City Marshal
Boyd and their deputies took up
the case at once and began a search
for the thugs who committed the
chine. Suspicion rested on EIihue
Grizzard, Ben Fogg and Nc
Millin Dougless, three worthless
negroes of the town. The suspects
kept in hiding during Wednesday.
Sheriff Alden gave a description OF
them to Ed McNail, officer at Nc,
Kenzie, who arrested Grizzard
and Fogg in the ticket office buy
ing tickets for Louisville Ky.
The sheriff went down after
them, and they are now in Jail.
Grizzard had $40 in the lining of
his cap and Fogg had $40 30 in
his shoes. Douglass has escaped,
but will be caught, it is believed
If proven guilty they should be
made to suffer the full penalty OF
the law. Other trifiing negroes of
the town should be given to under.
stand that they must either go to
work or leave town.
The amount OF money secured
from Williams, it is claimed, was
between $55 and $50.
We 90 to press Thursday before
the parties were brought to trial.
There is strong feeling against the
parties committing the crime.
