4ANS FOR WELCOME HOME
 WEEK.

# Since the meeting of the manufac- K rers and the committee in charge of #e Welcome Home celebration last @ening there seems to be a rift in @e cloud of misunderstanding that #Rs arising yesterday. It appears now #at the carnival and midway attra .
 pns will be run for a week, as orig Mally planned, and that the decora-
 bns will be in place for the same @n gth of time. The attractions down @Wn will only be running evenings
 8 WeVer, and the big civic and mili- Mry parade and other daylight fca- S res will be confined to two days, AN 'iday and Saturday. Thus it is felt Nat the factories may operate with afull complement. of workmen during Me week and, at the same time, thc N Mlebration will be held.
 M MThere was a great deal of merit in Ne manufacturers statement that Mnsiderable money would be lost to sSe Wage-earners and the factories @ould the daytime attractions last a Nhole week. The wage earner will ", countering this, what concern is N of the factories that we lose #pney?" At the present time it is Ne concern of everyone that produc- SSPn does not cease for moment.
 pt for the interests of any factory or N any individual. But increased pro- #ctlon is the remedy for the high Mlces that exist today, and every #up on the part of labor means q Mstponement of the time that our @oductiOn will catch up with the de- Rnd. Therefore all of us are inter- #ed in getting the full product of all Mr institutions. When We do there @ll be a letup in the steadily rising HRle of prices. Everyone knows thai Nweek of carnival will interfere with AEaT production.
 Notwithstanding this, it is good @ng for the city, in an indirect way, @ It is possible to have a large "ge5- asether" meeting such as the week @omises to afford. A publicly organ
 @d, publicly supported social event
 es much toward promoting good
 sll and unison. Provided the affair is a right it will be a big asset to the
 #n, in advertising as well as the
 Move mentioned lines As far as the E diers are concerned, they appre- x te that they are welcomed home @d appreciate the demonstratias,, Notwithstanding that they may hold M from part in it through a false 8#lse of modesty.
 a5Fhe feeling that has been spread rough certain class of people that 3#e attitude of the manufacture is @ indirect slap at the "boys" should Mt be countenanced. We know that Hsne of the military men are inclined # feel that way, but then we wish to
 #< one of them: Do you consider 5Sat you have been insulted bv not Ewing been given a chance to pa @ie ?" The chances are that nine out VI ten individuals that are asked this @l answer, NO, 1 didn't want to get |@o it in the first place." We have Mard that feeling expressed before
 P episode of yesterday came about. N is not the proper feeling, the boys
 8 e 1t to their parents and home folks x turn out, but it has been freely | zen voice to. It is the words of NY that have spoken as outlined
 #ove that has furnished great
 Ma Wback to the success of the affair &a aeady. Those who realize that they Haould do what is right have kept
 @ll and those who do not care about
 Trading have been talking. Conse
 #ently the expressions heard have s#en adverse ones.
 #But the affair is promised. The
 hnufacturers and the merchants Eve gotten together and agreed upon #program. This required concessions sbm both. Right here is where the W n along the street steps in and |Ne kes the thing a success or a fa.l-
 Ae. Without the aforesaid individual @d his cooperation everything is #eless. All together, then, and put Fer the party.
