LABOR HEADS
 WILL CONSIDER
 SAVINGS PLANK
Conference Called By Com pers May Ask Continuation
 of Thrift Policy.

Portland, Ore.-Heads of the Inter
 national Unions of America opening a
 special conference in Washington De- cember 13 at the call of Samuel Comp CTS, President of the American Federa- tion of Labor, to outline labor pro. gram in lieu of the failure of the re- cent industrial conference, have been petitioned by the Oregon State Federation of Labor to include in the program unqualified support of the Governments thrift policy, represented in the sale of Thrift, War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi- cates. Backing of all other State Federations of Labor and a request that they forward similar petitions to the conference in Washington was asked by the Oregon Federation in a letter to all other State Federations of Labor. The letter was signed by o. R. Hartwig, president of the Oregon Fed eration, who says: We feel that this will materially strengthen the position of organized labor and will also give us the sinews of war when most needed"
 His letter to the other State Fede rations of Labor follows:
 'Inasmuch as the United States Gov ernment is engaged in advancing the War Savings Stamps. campaign in a vigorous manner, and inasmuch as the War Savings Stamps are the best pos sible forms of investment for working men and women, particularly organ ized workers, and also because the pos session of War Savings Stamps by workers while defending their rights either while out on strike or otherwise, gives them a degree of security that ordinarily they do not possess, there fore, the State Federation of Labor of Oregon makes the following sugges- tion: That your Federation join with us in urging upon the national con. ference that has been called in Wash ington, D. C., by the American Fedora tion of Labor, the advisability of in- cluding in any program that they may a War Savings Stamps plank or provision.
 We feel that this will materially strengthen the position of organized labor and will also give us the sinews of war when most needed"

BASIC ECONOMICS

The schools are the medium which we should use to spread among the American people correct notions of cap. ital, labor, banking and thrift. 5 The elementary school is none too early in which to begin instruction along such lines. We are ali agreed that thrift should be taught in schools. but to teach mere saving or accunnula- tion without showing what the objects of thrift are, is teaching miserliness. In connection with the teaching of thrift there should also be taught the func- tion of banks. Pupils should be made to see that mere saving does no good unless that which is saved is used to create more wealth. To that end they should be shown that there is a great difference between money which is merely stored up in little iron bank at home and that which is taken to a real bank and is put out into the in- dustrial world to earn an interest in re turn. In some of our large schools there are school savings banks estab- lished. These exist not only in ele- mentary but in high schools, but in very few cases are any attempts made to teach the pupils the functions of bank and where the interest comes from.

Violin Maker Manufactures
Riddles With POcketknife

Material of strange description con
tributes interest to the productions of
an eccentric Ohio violin maker whose
instruments are noted for their ornate
carvings. Extremely simple tools are
used by the workman, an old pocket
Knife with nicked and rusted blades
being one of his favOrite implements.
In spite Of this, the instruments have
an excellent appearance and good tonal
qualities. Wood taken from the heart
of a partly petrified log dug up in an
eastern state forms the back of one Of
the extraordinary violins. Another I'M
usual instrument has a back made
from one of the drawers of a bureau
brought to this country from England
shortly after the historic voyage Of the
Mayflower.

Peaceful Color of Green
Was Mother Earth'S Choice

How many of us ever wonder why
Mother Earth chose to dress in green?
The earth was not always green. Once
1t was as naked as the moon but there
came day when the weather grew
cool enough to demand clothing, and
at that time, no doubt, our material
planet began to look about to choose
color scheme for her dress. Why
she chose green is not of record, but
that she chose 1t with her whole heart
every pleasant place of creation testi-
fies. Scientists explain that this is
merely natural phenomenon, the col
or being chlorophyl pigment, turned
green by action Of the sun. But why
it did not turn blue or red, or black
no scientist knows. About all we can
say is that Mother Earth wanted
green dress, and she went and got it.

Kiev, With About 100000
inhabitants, Combination
of Both the Old and New

Kiev contains about 100000 inhabi-
tants, and comprises four distinct dis
tricts, which may also be called sep
arate towns. Podol, the commercial
quarter, skirts the river Dnieper, and
above it, on a steep declivity, is Lipki,
the residential quarter, and an en-
chanting spot in summer, with its
handsome villas empowered in dark,
luxuriant foliage.
North of that is Kiev proper, which
contains the university and the cathe-
dral of st. Sophia, building erected
in the eleventh century, but so con-
stantly repaired and added to that it
is now huge and towering structure
with more than a dozen large golden
domes.
Here also are the theaters, hotels
and shops, which are quite as mod.
ern as those Of Petrograd or Moscow,
Petchersk, the fourth district, is honey
cOmbed with caves and catacOmbs that
in olden days were used as places of
refuge and as monastic cells, and
where, during holy festivals, one can
scarcely move through the dense
crowds of pilgrims, of whom 100000
annually visit this ancient and revered
monastery.

EVIDENCE FOUND
TO ASTONTSH WORLD
Severance Of Diplomatic Re-
IatiOns With Mexico Is
Asked in Resolution.

Washington.-Pres Wilson was
requested in a resolution introduced
Wednesday in the senate to sever dip
lomatic relations with Mexico.
The resolution was offered by Sena-
tor Fall, republican, of New Mexico,
who as chairman of a subcommittee
investigating the Mexican situation de-
clared evidence had been found which
would astound the world" 1t also
asked that the president withdraw
recognition Of the Carranza govern
ment.
Senator Fall charged that the Next
can embassy, the consulate generals in
New York and San Francisco and the
consulates along the border with the
knowledge and consent of President
Carranza, had been actively engaged
in the spreading of bolshevist propa-
ganda in the United States. Evidence,
it was said, would be Forthcoming to
bear out the charge.
By this resolution, which was sent
to the foreign relations committee of
the senate for consideration, the whole
Mexican problem, admittedly grave in
view of the refusal of the CaTranza
government to release Consular Agent
Jenkins from the penitentiary at Pueb-
la, will be put before congress.
The latest note from the state de-
partment calling for the immediate re-
lease of Jenkins was laid before the
to this effect reached the department,
but there was no intimation as to
when an answer might be expected.
An early report from the commit
tee on the Fall resolution is expected
and this will put the question square
ly before the senate, aroused to a
high pitch by recent murders of Amer
leans in Mexico and the treatment of
the American consular agent

Registered Cattle
and Babies
From a Bulletin Of the United States
Public Health Service

Horse and cattle breeders owning
"blOOded" stock do not fail to have
their animals registered" 1t adds
to their value, and is therefore justly
as highly desirable. In sharp
contrast is the attitude of many care
less parents Of children. Here are a
few reasons why baby's birth should
be registered: TO establish identity !;
to prove nationality; to prove legiti-
macy; to show when the child has the
right to enter school; to show when
the child has the right to seek employ
ment under the child labor law; to es-
tablish the right Of inheritance to
property; to establish liability to milf
tary duty, as well as exemption there
from; to establish the right to vote /;
to qualify to hold title to, and to buy
or sell real estate; to establish the
right to hold Office; to prove the age
at which the marriage contract may
he entered into; to make possible sta
tistical studies of health conditions.

In CULLING KEEP
ONLY GOOD PULLETS

Every well-developed early-hatched
pullet in good health is a potential egg
layer. Just as there is no method of
judging the speed Of a horse before
he has been raced or of determining
the butterfat record of a heifer before
she has been freshened, so there is no
accurate means of telling how many
eggs the pullet will lay until she has
been given a trial. AS a rule, most
pullets which start laying before win
ter will lay at least enough eggs to
pay for their feed during their first
laying season. All mature, vigorous
pullets should be kept. Any weak, UNI
dersized, late-hatched, or deformed
pullets should be culled out in the fall.
Other methods Of estimating the fu-
ture egg production of pullets are in
accurate and their use is not advised.
The real problems in culling poul-
try flock are found with hens that
have finished one or two laying sea
sons. The general rule with pullets
Is to keep practically all and with
aged hens to dispose of all, but with
all yearling hens and with two-year-
old hens of the lighter breeds some
should be sold and others kept. To
Gull hens of these ages every bird
must be studied to determine her
value. Nature has marked the poor
producer, and the poultry keeper
should be able to recognize the marks.

Weaving of Artistic Rug as
Old as Greece Itself

Rug making is as old as Greece it
self, but it was never made a CONNER
cial item, and it was rare indeed that
a weaver could be persuaded to part
with his rug. Greek rugs are of two
kinds, the heavy ones used in winter
and the light ones used at all times.
In the beginning the designs were Of
the simplest but later the Greeks bor-
rowed floral designs from the Persians,
which loan was amply repaid with the
development of Grecian art. Venetian
rugs are also very rare.
