PRESSMEN'S STRIKE
IN NEW YORK CITY

NEW YORK, Tuesday, Sept. 80.
Printers operating I'm
ion book and job offices in New
York City today forced to an issue
the controversy with their Pressmen
and feeders over the latter's de
mands for a forty-four hour week
and a S14 week wage increase.
The PreSSmen and feeders were no
titled that they will not be given
employment tomorrow when their
contracts expire unless they are af-
filiated with the international
Pressmen S Union.
The two local Unions, which have
seeded from the International,
have 5000 members employed in the
$50 shops In addition the employ
ing printers notice will affect 10,-
600 printers, stereotypers, electro
typers, photo engravers, binders and
mailers. Officials of the local Typo
graphical Union, and the Interna-
tional Pressmen Union attempted
today to devise a plan to prevent
the closing of the shops.

ST0NE-FISHER co.'s
MODERNIZED STORE

The Stone-Fisher, Co., has com
pleted extensive Improvements in its
Pioneer Department Store. The
front has been remodeled, making
the entrance in the center and so
changing its appearance as to make
it very attractive.
In the interior the floor space
is devoted the display of dress goods,
silks, a general line of dry goods
and shoes.
On the second floor are ladies'
ready-to-wear garments, millinery
blankets, lace curtains and draper
les
On the third floor will be found
rugs, carpets and linoleums.
A large main aisle on the first
floor leading from the entrance to
the stairway makes this floor con
venient for patrons and employees
alike. The aisles from left to right
are sufficiently large to prevent
crowding. The interior furnishings
are new, attractive and modern.
Making for the best possible dis
play of goods. Like arrangements
for convenience and comfort have
been made on the second and third
floors.
Every possible effort to admit
daylight has been made with mark
ed success and in addition the cleo
trio lighting is admirable An ad-
ditional plate glass window has been
placed in the rear admitting a flood
of light. The management claims
the best lighted store in the North
west.
The improvements have been
quite costly and altogether reflect
great credit on the management
and the workmen who made them.
The Stone-Fisher Co., has the
largest line of merchandise ever put
in by this firm.

WAR ON SPOILED
FOOD IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-lf the
waiter sticks his thumb in the soup,
send it back-it may be infected.
Furthermore, people who have dis
eases have no place in the food bust
ness, declares DR.. Royal S. Cope
land. Commissioner of Health for
New York City, who advocates a
national law requiring walters,
workers in packing houses, grocers
and all others who handle food, to
undergo a strict medicai eXamin-
alton before they be allowed to
work with food.
Commissioner Copeland has al
ready put such a regulation in eff
feet in New York City. where every
waiter or grocer must be examined.
He must show his card, issued by
the City Physician who makes the
examination, whenever asked to do
so.
"No food should be touched by
any person who has not been exam
ined and found free of disease,
Commissioner Copeland told the
United Press. 'ln this connection
| ! cannot emphasize too much the
importance of clean hands. Every
Board of Health should see that
stores and restaurants are amply
equipped with Soilets and wash
rooms.
Every food handler in New
York has to pass examination by
the Board of Health. He is given
card. If he has tuberculosis, any
contagious disease, or skin or blood
diseases, which can be easily spread
by foods, he cannot work in res
taurant. This relates to walters,
bakers, butchers and all Others
working where food is handled"
DR.. Copeland said that statistics
show an enormous decrease in tu-
berculosis, and other diseases, since
the law regarding food handlers was
put into effect in New York City
He strongly advocated a similar Ma
tional law.
The colon bacillus" which
causes diarrhea, is a disease that
walters, said Dr. Copeland while
"other germs more serious, such as
syphilis and ringworm, are almost
equally dangerous, since they sc
quickly affect the stomach.
Hand contamination is coming
to be looked upon as the most dan
gerous that health officials have tc
combat declared DR.. Copeland, iii
it certainly the duty of every es-
tablishment handling food to eX.
clude from employment anyone hay-
ing diseases.

The Clerks Agreement

The Retail Clerks agreement
then came up. There was much dis
cussion of this matter, sometimes
quite heated The Clerks reported
discussing the agreement with the
proprietors of the department stores.
They say the main points i'm Ques-
tion so far as the merchants are
concerned, were that they objected
to their clerks being forced to join
the union, and they fear competi-
ton with Seattle if they pay min
imum wage demanded. They also
object to collective bargaining.
Bro. Nash. of Seattle, declared
that no self-respecting woman can
live in this city for less than $19.60
per week. If they work for less
pay they must bring down their
standard of living. cease to dress
we'll enough to be acceptable sales
women. or resort to prostitution.
What the department store owners
chief objection was, Bro. Nash said,
was to sign an agreement with a
closed shop clause.
There was a tentative agreement
that the merchants be given a
weeks time, after the Clerks meet

coupled with a warning that it will
be powerIess for good unless its
work is actively upheld by the peo-
pies Of the democratic nations. is
given in a memorandum made pub
lic by the National Socialist Party.
Of which the veteran II. NJ. Hvnd-
man is the leader. The memoran-
dunn follows;
The National Socialist Party
cordially supports the principle of
the League Of Nations as a possible
means for the maintenance of peace.
In that sense it therefore welcomes
the Covenant of the League Of Ma
tiOns as a step toward the settle
meut Of disputes between nations.
and warmly approves also the in
clusion Of machinery, capable Of in
definite extension, for the improve
ment of general labor conditions.
"While thus frankly affirming its
support of the League Of Nations
as a principle, the National Social
ist Party utters a note of warning
! against the danger Of oyer-estimat-
ing the power Of the League, espe-
cially at its inception, for securing
that world peace, and the conclu-
sion of commercial and colonial RI
valry, which are at present the
main reasons for its existence.
THE League of Nations will be
powerless for good unless the peo-
pies of the nations concerned take
an active part and interest in the
work Of the League. and strive to
make its Constitution much more
democratic than the Covenant
adopted at Versailles. Its Council
and Assembly must meet more fire.

onaut or it Will be dominated by

NOT ALL BLACK AS
THEY ARE PAINTED

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Sept. 30
Samuel Untermeyer of New York,
on behalf of the largest single group
of stockholders in the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation having in excess
of $5,000,OOO worth of stock, noti-
fled the national committee in
charge of the strike of 400, 900 steel
workers today that he has sent a
letter to Eugene r. Grace, president
of the company, protesting against
his refusal to meet the representa-
tives of organized labor for the pur-
poses of collective bargaining.
This would have averted a strike
of $4,000 workers in the Bethlehem
steel mills who went out today.

charge for its product a sufficient
sum to pay it's employees a decent
wage. Conditions of employment
under which this wage is earned
should be in keeping with the times
ana by all means humane.
IF the coal industry will grant
such conditions, coal strike will
be averted.
The public should not be alarm
ed by strike talk. The miners are
not seeking a strike, but simple in
dustrial justice, that's all.
Grant this and all will be
we'll.
