Mayor Sheppard Ready
To Cooperate Ia
Movement
WOMEN MAY HELP
IN DISTRIBUTION
Large Stocks Ready To
Be Sold Consumers
Only

Americus can participate in the
distribution of government fcodstuff
soon to be offered direct to consul
mers at cost prices, if they viii act
quickly.
This was disclosed 7oday when
Mayor j. E. Sheppard offered the
cooperation of the city in an effort
to place these goods withia reach Of
Americus consumers. The offer of
cooperation was made at the sug-
gestion of The Times-Recerder, a
representative of this paper calling
upon the mayor and laying the nat
ter before him. Previously the mat
ter had been brought before the city
council, but at that time it was said
by members of the body that the
government foodstuffs could be par
chased cheaper than offered in the
open market.
1t is now suggested, however, that
the ladies of Americus gel busy and
avail themselves of the appprtanity
to buy these goods. The plaf-under
which they are being sold by he war
department authorities, prohibits the
charging of a profit, and it will be
necessary to have volunteer clerks
to assist in their distribution. Mayor
Sheppard offers to provide storage
space in the city building for large
quantity of the foodstuf, and it
seems practically certain that the
goods can be secured without the
expenditure of dollar, the city re-
ceiving them on consignment anc
approving their distribution through
responsible parties at fixed prices.
The Times-Recorder places The
matter before the people today II
the !lope that they will avail them
selves of the opportunity presented
and sugge SITS to the ladies of Amcr'-
.us that they get in communicable

LABOR CONFLICT STTRS
DOMINION OF CANADA

WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Aug. IL
A conflict is in progress here between
Union labor men over the question
whether the Aloerical Federation of
Labor, or one big union shall control
labor organizations of Winnipeg.
The struggle is the outcome of the
big general strike which took place
here in May and June, involving la
Dor and capital throughout the Do
minion
A short time ago the Winnipeg
Trades and Labor Council voted to
join one big union by a vote said to
be 8.841 to 705.
AS result of this action, the Do
minion Labor Congress cancelled
the charter of the Winnipeg Trades
and Labor council and announced
that an effort would be made to form
a new council in Winnipeg to in
clude the local organizations oppos-
ed to the one big union plan. Among
the organizations which rejected this
idea of having one big union were
the railroad brotherhoods and the
American Federation of Labor.
Some Canadian newspapers assert
that the split in the labor ranks was
precipitated by the alien element and
say that the one big union organiz-
ed at algary demanded that the gov
ernment release all political pris-
oners" interned during the war. Fed
eral ministers have charged that
heavy percentage of the one big un-
ion membership was composed of
aliens.
Ernest Robinson, secretary of the
Winnipeg Trades and Labor council
has announced that the one big un-
ion will Immediately supply charters
to the local unions to take the place
of those revoked by the American
Federation of Labor. Winnipeg la
Dor leaders supporting the one big
union have promised to support the
movement to organize similar unions
in every city in the Dominion.
