500, 900 Rail Ebpolyes
Tnii0nized in Secret in
T.. s. in Recent Months

WASHINGTON, Jan. so. - Nearly
500 900 railway employees, or one-fourth
Of the entire number Of railroad men,
have effected some sort of organiza-
ton in recent months, according to
reports reaching labor leaders here.
Most Of these men had been wholly un-
organized previously or had belonged
to trades which were only partially
organized.
Many local organizations, 1t was said
now exist secretly and are known to
railroad executives only through com
mittecs which claim to represent the
men. though not as union spokesmen.
a large proportion of the recently
organized employees are clerks, main
tonance-of of-way men, shopmen and din
ing car employees.
Although the railroad administra-
ton never has taken stand either for
or against extension of employees or
ganizations, the unionizing movement
is believed by labor leaders to have
heen stimulated by former Director
General McAdoo's order forbidding DIS
elimination because Of either MON bor-
snip or non membership IN labor or
carnations.
Disputes arising between railroad cx-
ccutives and committees of newly or
ganizcd unions have been settled
through arbitration. although in nc
cases arising in surh a way has the
question OF recognition Of the union
been involved.

Pleas by Strikers
Not To Be Needed
BY British Cabinet
Request for Intervention Is
Declined by Lord Privy
Seal, Andrew Bonar Law;
Unrest on Clyde Grows

LONDON, Jan. 3O-The Cabinet met
tc day to discuss the labor troubles.
1t is understood the ministers decided
against intervening at present IN the
strikes on the ground that they nave
not been authorized by the trade
vention would be unwise. 1t is the
view of the ministers that the men, IN
the absence of the usual strike pay,
are not likely long to keep up the
movement, and that the government
therefore, should coniine its action to
preserving order
The ministers discussed telegram
from the Provost Of Glasgow contain
ing the request Of the strikers for the
government to intervene to obtain for
them a forty four hour week. Andrew
Bonar Law, Lord Privy Seal, on behalf
OF Premier Lloyd George, sent a reply
to the provist declining to intervene.
Unrest On Clyde Grows
The situation on the Clyde and in
Belfast became more serious to-day.
In Belfast manufacturing firms gener-
ating their own electric current for
power purposes had to close their
plants. as the workers in the private
electric installations ojined the strlk-
ers. The blacksmiths, bolermakers
and shipwrights decided to notify their
employers that the conditions of the
settlement thev asked should embody
an increase of 30 per cent in the gross
earning powers of the piece workers.
Along the Clyde many corporation
electricians struck, compelling the
corporations TO stop the current for
public works, retaining such current
as they were able to generate for the
use of the hospitals and for street
lighting
Glasgow Strikers Active
The industrial confusion in the
Clyde region is depicted by the Glas
gov correspondents of The Star in
a dispatch to-doy Tempcrs are rapidly
being lost in the strike, he says In
front Of two Of the large Glasgow
shipyards strikers have messed them
selves and arc adopting every measure
Of intimidation to compel the workers
to Join the strike. They forced their
way into the yards and dragged non
strikers into their ranks.
Unless negotiations arc open by to-
morrow, the CORES spondent adds. the
strikers threaten to throw Glasgow m
to darkness and to shut off the light
even from the hospitals.
Street cars are running in the city
to-day. but the strikers declared that
if there operation interfered with the
professions of the men the cars would
be stopped.
"Revolutionary language is now on
the tongues OF the leaders, the CORE
spondent reports.

MERRY G0-R0UND FOR CHINA
Celestial, Long Resident in Hawaii,
Has Planned Triumphant Return
to His Native Land. d.

Twelve years ago Chang Chau coiled
his queue on top of his head, donned
the garb of the Occident in order to
facilitate speed, and hied himself out
of China between two suns. Chang
Chau had made a bad guess and had
allied himself in 1907 to the forlorn
hope Of DR.. Sun Vat Sen. late presi-
dent of China, but In that year over
whelmingly defeated by the troops of
the Manchu dynasty. So it was that
Chang Chau arrived in Honolulu. But
the Manchus now are no more, and,
take it from Chang, his is to be a
triumphal return.
He has bought a merry-go-round,
which for untold years has been add
ing to the hilarious enjoyment of
Hawaiian natives, and intends to set
1t up in Picking, an exchange says,
Before many moons the blatant wall
of "Je-er-er-u-us-s-alem-Je-e e-e-r-u-u-
s-s-alem," will be floating out from the
mechanical organ Of the giant swing
and mingling with the thousand other
noises Of the Orient, while staid Chi
nese mandarins rock dignifiedly on the
gaudy wooden horses, their queues and
robes flying out behind them as they
make the dizzy circuit. Cynics might
be tempted to say that Changes return

Variety Of Ways, Some Of Them

Washington. That municipalities
r tackling their local food problems
in a variety Of ways, some of them
unusual, is evidenced by reports re-
ceived by the city marketing division
Of the bureau Of markets, United
States department Of agriculture.
From establishing curb markets, re-
modelling, or building retail market
houses, efforts of cities have expanded
until some are actually selling food

How One City Sells Food.
Houston, Tex, which has a munich
pally owned retail market house, has
taken over three stalls in the build
ing and is handling fruits and vege-
tables In competition with its tenants.
In order to be fair to other retailers
1t charges itself with all overhead ex-
penses paid by other dealers, including
-ent, and also pays wages higher than
lose paid in other stalls. Reports

Cities Tackle the
Food Problem

petition with local merchants at both
a direct and indirect saving to con-
sumers. The experiment is to be en-
larged to include food products other
than fruits and vegetables and is said
to be already serving as a stabilizing
influence on prices in that city mar
ket. Competing merchants have be-
come interested in the methods of do
ing business of the city-operated stalls
and appear anxious to try out prac-
tees that would enable them to lower
their prices.
Allentown, Pa, has gone into farm
Ing on a farm acquired for other pur-
poses which. through changes in mu-
nicipal plans, was lying idle. Under
the direction Of n of the city alder
men this farm is producing vegetables
and selling them at retail In competi-
ton with shipped-in produce. The
farm also feeds 1000 head of hogs on
city garbage. Local advocates of the
plan now propose to include the use
of an old brewery as a storage ware
house for potatoes and other products
grown by local farmers, so as to lessen
the city's dependence on shipped-in
products.
Although the bureau Of markets,
through Its city market division, is
keeping in touch with developments
in many cities and is compiling in
formation for use in answering in
quiries, 1t states that it would be glad
to hear from any cities, not as yet
reached by formal inquiry, which are
working on local food problems
through municipality owned shops and
by other methods differing from those
that have been followed in the past.

FLU CAUSES SIX
DEATHS In CHICAGO

The weekly bulletin Of the health
department issued yesterday, shows
that six persons died in Chicago last
week as result of Influenza. DR.. W. A.
Evans, health authority and writer of
Chicago, last week predicted that the
world would again be swept by an
epidemic of Influenza far more severe
than last year, when thousands OF
lives were lost. One thing is sure,
that is, the warm weather this fall
has kept the epidemic down, but as
colder weather approaches, Influenza
is liable to break out any time. DR..
Brady says: "No one has as yet dia
covered a positive method of diagnos-
ing early cases of Influenza from al.
legged 'colds.'" The utmost care
should be taken, therefore, not to
catch cold, for colds weaken the re-
sistance to Influenza germs.
Doctors seem to agree that 1t is
much easier to prevent Influenza than
to cure 1t. The secret of preventing
Influenza is to keep the germs from
lodging and developing in the respira-
tory o~rganS-the mouth, nose and
throat. No one should be allowed to
breathe in your face because the germs
are often transmitted in this manner
Influenza can be prevented; last
years results prove that. AS a pre-
ventive for Flu, Turpo has been a
pronounced success. Turpo is an eff
fective germicide, combining the old
fashioned remedies Of turpentine
(Which has always been known as the
best home germicide), camphor and
menthol in a pure mineral base. These
ingredients have long been recognized
as effective germicides, as well as hav-
ing really wonderful qualities in re-
Leying colds and congestions. Snuff
a little Turpo up the nostrils several
times a day, and the Flu germs will
have little chance Of getting a lodg-
ing and breeding place. Many physi-
clans and hospitals use and recon-
mend Turpo.
Prepare now. Buy a thirty cent jar
of Turpo, while your druggist has a
supply on hand, and use as directed.
Last year druggists could not supply
the demand. Remember that Turpo is
a preventive, not a cure for Influenza.
Take care of yourself.-Adv.
