PICKETS PLACED
AT COTTON MILLS

Columbus, Feb 5.-The Columbus
cotton mill controversy is settling
down to steady gait with both sides
getting their house in order and de-
tails of the campaign on both sides
gradually assuming shape.
The striking operatives today plac-
ed pickets around the plants that
were attempting operation with re-
Iduced forces, with the result that
practically all mills are now entirely
closed down and the tie-up is virtually
complete.
The mills made their first public
statement this afternoon in the form
OF a page advertisement in which they
said they could not afford to adopt
the eight-hour day even if they paid
for only eight hours of the present
scale
Overhead expenses are such they
claim that the cost per yard of MAX
ing cloth would be increased if pro-
duction should be limited by working
only eight hours. They assert they
are not in position now to increase
their per yard cost of making cloth
, as the demand for this product is poor
and prices falling. They say they
should have reduced their output
when the armistice was signed as
the cancellation of orders of drygoods
began at once, but they continued in
operation on the usual scale in order
to hold their organization together
and disturb local business condition
as little as possible.

URGES PUBLIC
OWNERSHIP OF
STATE FORESTS
Committee on Conservation
Reports to Paper and
Pulp Association

New York, Nov. 14.-Public own
ership of national or state timber
lands, with private cutting and mar
keting of the older and larger sizes
of timber was urged in a report OF
the Committee on Forest Conserva-
ton at the convention of the
American Paper and Pulp Associ-
alton here to-day
The committee, composed of Frank
L. Moore, of Watertown, n. VI;
d. A. Croker, w. E. Haskell and X.
S. Kellogg, of New York, and c. HI.
Worcester, of Chicago, declared that
any plan looking toward the solu-
ton of the problem of permanent
timber supply must be adequate and
practicable to produce the needed
results; just to all interests concern
ed and acceptable to the majority"
Five recommendations by the COM
mittee included a nationwide forest
survey; doubling the area of public
forests; better fire prevention; uni
form forest taxation laws and in
creased planting of trees. Every en-
couragement said the report, should
be offered by the states to the owner
of forest lands, who wishes to grow
In the case of refusal the
report said "the land should be ac-
quired by the public at a fair valu-
alton and made a part of the system
of public forests"

Gompers Reiterates
Gregory's Stand on
Lever Act in 1917

Washington, Nov. IA. = President
Gompers, OF the American Fedora
uon of Labor, reiterated last night
his assertion that former Attorney
General Gregory had "given assur-
anee" to the union leaders in 1917
that the Lever food and fuel act
under which the coal strike has
been enjoined, would not be used
against labor organizations. Re-
ferring to Mr.. Gregory's denial of the
assertion originally made by the ex-
ecutive council of the federation, Mr..
Gompers said the former Attorney
General had gone into conference
with the labor executives on the
subject.
AT that conference with the At
torney General in 1917 Mr.. Gregory
stated emphatically, speaking for
himself and for the Government"
Mr.. Gompers declared. that the pro-
visions of the Lever act would not
be applied to workers and that he
would write to the United States
district attorneys, that they, too
should be governed by that assur-
ance. Whether Mr.. Gregory carried
out his pledge to write his subordi-
mates, | am not in a position to say,
but that he gave that assurance that
he would do so there, is absolutely
no question"

MISCELLANEOUS
CENTURY OF U. S. PHARMACY


American pharmacists are looking
forward for the convention for the
revision of the United States Phar-
macopoeia next May as a milestone
in their progress. Concerning its
significance Prof. Edward Kremers,
director of the course in pharmacy
and the Pharmaceutical Experiment
Station, University of Wisconsin,
writes:
THE call for the convention for
the revision of the United States
Pharmacopeia to meet in Washing
ton next May brings out the fact
that our National pharmaceutical
and medical standard has passed
through nine decennial revisions and
that the next convention marks the
beginning of the second century of
pharmacopeical history in the United
States.
Thought many a state pharma-
copoeia dates back much further
than our standard, few of the more
important standards are as old as
our own. The first British Pharma-
copoeia was published in 1864, re-
placing the local standards of Lon
don, Edinburgh and Dublin. The
first German Pharmacopoeia was pub
lished in 1872, year after the re-
establishment of the German EN-
pire, replacing the numerous local
pharmacopoeias of Prussia, Bavaria,
Hessia, etc. The first French Phar-
macopeia was published in 1918,
several decades after the French
revolution has disposed of the old
order of things, pharmaceautically
as well as otherwise.
Anticipating the rounding out of
the first century of pharmacoepial
history in the United States, the
department of the uni
versity for more than ten years has
been collecting material for series
of monographs to be published un-
der the general caption, "A Century
of the United States Pharmacopoeia.
1S2O-1920.'' The first of these, based
on laboratory as we'll as library
research, has just been issued from
the press, and is entitled. THE
Galenical Oleoresins.' This mono
graph constitutes the doctors thesis
of A. G. Du Mez, now in government
service, being associated with the
hygienic laboratory. This mono-
graph of 28S pages was first pub
lished in volume 19 of the Transac-
tions of the Wisconsin Academy of
Sciences, Arts and Letters and has
more recently been issued as a re-
print by the Wisconsin Pharma-
ceutical Experiment Station. 1t has
already received very favorable com u

MOTOR CARS
GREAT MENACE

Pittsburgh, Pa, Nov. 1.-THE

DR.. Steadwell praised the work
which was being done in Australia,
Canada, the United States, England,
