Forced Women Into Factories
Long Before We Entered War

Washington, n,-The increased cost
of living sent most Ohio women into
the factories long before America
entered the war, reports Miss Rachel
Gallagher, of the United States en-
ployment service for Ohio.
"Curiously enough" she says, "the
item of shoe cost was the first thing
that most of the women with whom
/ talked mentioned. They pointed out
that the shoe bills of a family placed
too much of a strain on their hus-
bands income, so they went to work.
Miss Gallagher says that relatively
few Ohio women took the place Of
men in industry during the war be-
cause the governments plan Of sub
stituting women was halted by the
the ending of hostilities.
Daytonfurnished the only instance
where any number of women not pre-
viously employed went to work The
amount and diversity of war work
there created tremendous labor de-
mands. With the letting down of war
work these women for the most part
are ready to go back to thir homes.

Use Detectives
To Smash Unions, Says
Chairman Manley.

Washington a speech in this
city Joint Chairman Manly of the
national war labor board said 'there
are little groups of irresponsible
anarchistic employers all over the
country" who are refusing to arbi-
trate labor disputes and who, in many
instances, use detectives ito provoke
violence by the use of dynamite and
all sorts of other unfair methods"
The speaker declared that the em-
ployment of these detectives is wide
spread, and cited this instance of
how these employers operate:
"A little group Of mill workers
brought their complaints before the
national war labor board, The en-
ployer's reply in that case was that
they were a lot of /. w. WIS, anar-
chists, bolshevists, etc. We thought
we would look into the matter, so
we got access to the records of the
department of justice and we found
that The leader of the so-called l. w.
WIS, the bolshevists and anarchists
was detective in the pay of this
very employer who made the charge
against him."

does speak publicly on the situation,
he should speak with authority.
Detroit is facing the most serious
economic crisis of its entire history.
The authority for this statement is
Chester M. Culver, general manager
of the employers association of
Detroit.
Mr.. Culver declares that there were
in the first week of the new year from
25 900 to 10000 men out of employ
ment and added that men are being
laid off at the rate of at least 1000
daily.
"Unless the government gets down

finite and immediate action to settle
the problems of American industries
satisfactorily" says Mr.. Culver

Brewery Worker S
Walking The Streets.

On last Saturday the Cincinnati
Brewing Company, at one time one
of the most prosperous industries in
this city, notified all their employees
that their services were no longer
needed. This is the first blow to
the city of Hamilton caused by the
prohibition movement. Monday morn
ing the employees of the brewery
wandered through the streets look
ing for job. We hope that the lead
ers of the prohibition movement will
keep their promise and secure the
men a job that will pay them as much
as the jobs they were forced to leave.
In the near future more men will be
idle because of the same movement
that put these men out of employ
ment. What will the drys do for these
men?

Bv Richard P. Appleton

Detroit, Mich.,-How seriously the
present situation is viewed by the
United States Department of Labor
may be gathered from the fact that
Secretary William B. Wilson has sent
to the executives of all the larger
cities of the country personal letter
asking their advice and information
as to what public works can be imme-
diately begun to aid in taking up the
surplus of labor
These letters state that the secre-
tary wishes to gain a fairly accurate
estimate of the situation and the pos
sibilities of aid by each city before
making official recommendations He
expressly stated that ne does not ad-
vocate the initiation of measures
simply to afford work for the unem-
ployed but he does advise that all de
layed public work, and work that can
just as well be begun now as later
should be put under way He antici-
pates serious unemployment in the
near future.
The letter is not in any sense con-
fdential, but is simply to allow
Secretary Wilson the benefit of the
combined attitudes of the mayors OF

the 10000 men who left Detroit for
war service, probably $4,000 are still
to come home.
What will be done, then, unless the
government wakes up to the crisis, is
hard to imagine"
"What to do about it" is the ques-
ton that at last is beginning to dis
turb the sleep of the employers. But
they don't know. They do not seem
to have the slightest trace of help
full idea. What shall we do with an
army of 100000 or possibly 100000
unemployed? The best they can sug-
gest is that the government pay the
full amount of all untitled war con-
tracts, leaving to future determination
the approval of them, the validity of
some and the amount of just compen-
sation in cases where they are can
celled or held to be invalid.
Perhaps one of the really ominous
things about the situation is the
weakness of organized labor in Detroit
The labor unions have by no means the
strength they should have in the
fourth city of the United States. The
employers have successfully fought
unionism in days past. One wonders
whether soon they will not regret
their success,
With a vast army of unemployed,
the major portion of them unorganized
thousands upon thousands of them of
foreign birth and habits, will they be
as easy to treat with as strongly or
ganized and self-respecting union
ranks? That question, too, is beginn-
ing to be asked. Fear of Bolshevism
is coming to be the real anxiety by
day and a nightmare in the dark
hours.

To Secure Jobs If Plan
of Labor Carries.
Compulsory Universal Eight
Hour Day Proposed.
Weekly Pay Day Also To Be
Demanded.

Columbus, Ohio,-Passage of an
eight-hour law to apply to all indus
tries in Ohio by the Legislature will
be urged by the State Federation of
Labor, T. j. Donnelly, secretary an
nounced Tuesday.
It's enforcement, he said, would
solve the problem of unemployment.
A bill will be introduced in the
Legislature in few days.
According to the figures of the
United States Employment Service
10000 men are out of work in seven
cities of Ohio.
BY the operation of the eight-hour
law employment can be given to at
least $4,000 more men, Donnelly said.
Work in Three Shifts.
In some Of the big steel mills and
rubber plants, paper mills and other
industries working "a hours day,
workers are employed in two shifts
of II hours each. BY dividing the
1 "a hours into three shifts three men
could be employed where two men
now are used.
Labor expects big fight on this
bill by the Manufacturers Associa-
ton.
Backed by Government.
The proposition of the eight-hour
day as unemployment relief meas
ure has the backing of the federal
government and the American FEEDER
alton of Labor.
1t is contended production will be
greatly increased by the shorter
work day
Labor already has declared it's in
tention of fighting for more money
for the schools of Ohio
Weekly pay days will be demand
ed by labor in bill to be introduced.
Increase in Compensation
AN increase III IIie WofkHleI ildA-
imum compensation to SIS will be
demanded The high cost of living
has made the present $12 maximum
far too low in the opinion of the
labor men
The Legislature also will be asked
to increase the scope of the COM
pensation law SO as to include all
employers.

tosh county where pool hall owner

NAME FOR
BOTTINEAU COUNTY FAIR

At the annual election of the Direct
ors of the County Fair Board held
Oct.21st there was considerable dis
cussion over changing the name Of
the County Fair. One of our readers
makes the following suggestion,
which we think is very good: "The
Mouse River and Turtle Mountain
County Fair" The name is quite long
but is about the only way to designate
this section. Combining these two
names would give very distinctive
name for Bottineau and surrounding
territory.

FORESTRY NORMAL NEWS

The Normal School enjoyed having
the teachers and institute workers
with us last week. Come again.
A circular has been issued by G. A.
Fraser, Adjutant General of the State,
concerning the educational provisions
Of the State Compensation Law, which
provides that any soldier or sailor may
attend any of the higher institutions
Of the state and receive his $25 per
month for each month in the service.
The money will not be available from
the state until about next April but
the institutions are authorized by the
Board of Administration to carry the
students until that time, to the extent
of the amount coming from the state.
The Forestry State Normal School
will advance carfare, enrolment fees,
board, etc., to assist any soldier or
sailor in this way. This arrangement
applies not only to the regular work
but also to the short courses in auto
mobile and tractor work.
Quite number of new students
have enrolled recently and among
whom are Clarence Gorder and Allan
Mckenzie. The enrolment is much in
excess of any time in the schools his
tory.
Miss Miles was in charge of the
Roosevelt program given ut Assembly
exercises on Monday morning, Oct. 27.
The speakers were Miss Miles, Mr..
Mangun Miss Lucille Rogers, and Mr..
Edwin Wigeby. The amount collected
for the Roosevelt National Memorial
was in the neighborhood of ten dol
lars. Miss Vessel favored US with two
pretty vocal solos.

of next week as the faculty will be in
attendance upon the State Teachers
Association at Minot. The library will
be open, however each afternoon.

Bottineau High School has a foot
ball team we're proud of. Last Friday
they met the Kenmare experienced
team and tho not carrying off the
victory showed that they had football
stuff in them. Their opponents made
two touch downs before our boys
learned the game. Those who were 10y
al enough to be on the side lines know
that our boys played a fine game the
second half, holding their opponents
and making one touch down. Only a
faw came out to support the team so
if rooters play half the game it was
certainly Ine absent rooters who lost
the victory for Bottineau. Let's get
out for our team and play our part
with them.

LEMKE SAVED
CASE FOR PEOPLE
ATTORNEY PRESENT IN COURT
PREVENTED LOSS OF OIL
SUIT BY DEFAULT

i.a&hed into action by the unfavor-
able publicity he received for neglect
on October II to represent the state
in the suit OF the Standard Oil to es-
cape the payment Of taxes amounting
to S280,0OO, Attorney General Lam
ger had representative present when
the case was continued in Minot Tues
day. The state was represented by
Attorney Seth Richardson Of Fargo,
whom the governor appointed.
At the conclusion Of the arguments
Judge Amidon gave counsel for the
state five days in which to submit
briefs to the court in support of the
states right to collect the tax. Coun-
sci for the company were given ten
days in which to file briefs in answer.
Attorney Richardson presented af-
fidavits by DR.. E. F. Ladd, state oil
inspector, showing that the Standard
Oil company Immediately on the pas
sage of the oil law advanced the price
of oil the amount of the tax and one
tenth additional to pay the cost Of
collection. Counsel for the state
showed that the Standard Oil owes
$280,000 in taxes and that although
it has collected this and one-tenth ad-
ditional in advanced prices it is try
ing to prevent the state from collect
ing the tax from the company on the
grounds that the law is unconstitu-
tional.
1t has now developed that the pre-
sence of William Lemke in the court
in Fargo October II in all likelihood
prevented the success of frame-up
to have the case go by default. When
the attorneys for the corporation saw
Mr.. Lemke in the court room in the
capacity of citizen determined to de-
fend the interests Of the state, they
Immediately called up Langer's as
sistant attorney, Albert E. Sheets,
who was in Fargo, and had him come
and obtain continuance of the case.
It is regarded as significant that these
corporation attorneys were in touch
with Assistant Attorney General
Sheets at this particular time and
that he did not appear in court until
after they had called him up and re-
quested him to appear.
