OLD PETITION
is DISMISSED
BY COMMISSION
Company Waits Action on Request
for Rates Authorized By Post
master General.

Notification has reached Rock Is
land that proceedings of the old
petition Of the Central Union TeIe-
phone company have been dismiss
ed. A new petition, however, has
been filed by the company asking
continuation of the rates authorized
by Postmaster General Burleson
three months ago, while the gov
eminent still controlled the lines.
When Thomas s. Brown, district
manager of the company was noti-
fed by The Argus he said that the
dismissal of the old proceedings
only means that the utilities COM
mission is prepared to take action
on the new petition. He said he ex-
pected that the continuation of the
present rates will be authorized.
City opposes Rates.
However, officials in Rock Is
land are. strongly against the pres
ent rates. At the time they were
authorized by the government. a
protest was sent to Postmaster
General Burleson, d copy being
also sent to the state officials. AL
though the state officials them
selves notified the mayor that they
were protesting, no action could
be taken at the time as the utilities
commission had nothing to do with
the telephone company. Four
months after date on which the
control of the lines reverted the
state commission will have power
to take action on the rates, but not
until then, the telephone officials
say.

field to The Argus, dated Sept 4,

INDUSTRIAL SURVEY
IS GIVEN Governor

Data collected by the Indiana COM
mittee on women and children in In
dustry, including conditions in Rich
mond, was presented to Governor
Goodrich yesterday by Miss Eleanore
Barker, chairman, who was here last
week at conference.
The survey shows that conditions
in Indiana are not below the average.
In Indiana, as in other states, a num-
Der Of plants employing women have
set high standard in the conditions
Of their employment. Unfortunately,
other plants in competition with them
have fallen far short OF the accepted
standard, the report says. 1t Is the
purpose Of labor legislation to estab-
lish a uniform minimum which shall
prevent any Arm from injuring the
state through the short.sishtcd policy
OF permitting insanitary working con-
ditions and long hours for the work
ers. especially the women.
A summary of the main facts about
hours Of work shows that the lack OF
a law limiting hours makes possible
an abnormally long working day for
some women workers in Indiana, says
the report. The figures are as fol-
lows:
I'm thirty-four plants. employing
2,S17 women, or about 23 per cent OF
the establishments inspected, the nor.
NAL working day. without overtime,
was ten hours or longer.
Reports OF overtime were made for
fifty three plants, employing 1881
women, and of these, thirteen plants,
employing 1893 women, had work
ing week of sixty-five hours or more.
Specific instances of overtime le.
gally possible in Indiana showed wom-
en- working as long as sixty-five hours
in week in clothing factory. sew
enty-three hours in one cannery and
Lightweight hours in another. seventy
five hours in a seven.day week, manu-
featuring caskets, and lightweight
hours and forty minutes in a plant
manufacturing automobile parts"

in its building.up process by the
use OF a good tonic-one that will
not only put strength and endur.
ance into the body. but will also
help to build up and strengthen the

One Of the most highly recon-
mended remedies to put energy In

your physician knows the form
ula-it is printed below.
There's iron in Bio-feren-the
kind OF iron that makes red blood
corpuscles and creates vigor. There

brain invigorator known to science.
Then there is good old reliable gen.
tian. that brings back your tagging
appetite.
There are other ingredients that
help to promote good health. as
you can see by reading this form
ula, not forgetting kole. that great
agent that puts the power OF en-.
durance into weak people.
Taken altogether Bio-feren is
splendid active tonic that will
greatly help any weak, rundown
person to regain normal strength,
energy. ambition and endurance.
Bio-feren is sold by all reliable
druggists and is inexpensive. For
weakness after influenza patients
are advised to take two tablets
after each meal and one at bed
time - seven a day, until health,
strength and vigor are fully re-
stored.
It will not fail TO help you and
II for any reason you are dissatis-
fed with results your druggist IL
authorized to return your money
upon request-without any red tape
of any kind.
Note to physicians: There IL no
secret about the formula of Bio
feren, 1t is printed on every pack
