STOCKHOLM EXPENSIVE
ABOVE OTHER CITIES

LONDON. Sept, 2~2.-Travelers arrlv-
ing here from Stockholm, after visiting
some of the other capitals, are firm in
their conviction that it is the most ex-
pensive city In Europe.
The staple coin is a krona, just over
rs cents, and 1t costs SO krona for bed,
breakfast and bath in a hotel. The
simplest meals cost SIS and wine is
prohibitive at about $500 a bottle for
the worst var champagne. A taxicab
for an hour costs $3.50, and five krona
Is the customary tip for a meal, while
one is expected to give a krona to the
man who happens to be handy and in

rather open yourself.

CENTURY PLANT MAY
OPEN TUESDAY NIGHT

The mater of postponing the pageant,
Opening of the Century Plant" has be-
come almost a habit with the directors
of that o~ft-promised spectacle. Mrs.
John o. F1autt, under whose direction
this spectacular production was to have
been staged at the fairgrounds Monday
night, has announced that another post
ponement has been necessary.
Under present plans the century plant
will blossom forth on Tuesday night in
stead Of Monday. This Is dependenat,
however, upon the condition OF the
weather and whatever else may happen
along to spoil the arrangements of those
in charge.
The pageant was originally scheduled
to take place during the centennial cele-
bration but was postponed for various
reasons; a decision was reached to dis
mantle the floats and this decision al
tered and plans made for stalking II

ment last week that it was to be held
TN Monday night, many were the
weather prophets who predicted rair
for Monday. 1t seems that their proph.
| esy came true and the eighth postpone.

PREDICTS
F. PRODUCTION GAIN
Labor Chief In Paper Read
To Ad Men Foresees
Normal Return.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept e2-Co-opera-
ton between arrangements and work.
ers In industries n the gradual aboli-
ton OF abnormal conditions brought
about by war will eventually bring about
the Increased production Of commodities
which the world needs now, President
Gompers, Of the American Federation
Of Labor, told the Associated Advertis-
ing Clubs of the World in a paper read
before the annual session here today.
High wages, Mr.. Gompers defended as
one factor in high costs which would
eventually lead TO improved methods and
progressive machine production while a
settlement Of peace terms he classed as
q fundamental requirement before the
world raj resume its orderly processes.
Until definite terms Of peace are
agreed to by the leading nations of
the world Mr.. Gompers said, mo coun-
try can return to normal Industrial con-
ditions. Credit is essential to a revival
Of industry. Credit can only be ar
ranged upon definite political surety"
Prompt ratification Of the pendihg
peace treaty, he said, was an absolute
necessity.
THAT treaty is not perfect" he re-
marked, but II is only constructive
suggestion for dealing with some Of the
things which cause wars"
Workers are not an impersonal fac
tor In production, :" he said, in develop
ing his second point. Workers are hui
man beings. Cooperation for produe-
ton depends fundamentally upon good
will. Good will cannot be forced; It
must be earned. The only way in
which workers in industry may express
and defend their rights and interests is
through organization and responsible
representatives.
1.-TWO fallacies have been so frequent
ly repeated as to be accepted by. casual
readers and hearers. 1t is said that
requests for increased wages n%ecessi-
tate increases In prices which increases
cost OF living and in return results in
more wage Demands vicious circle
which leads to no progress. II should
be remembered that wages constitute
only one of the factors In production
costs, and that high labor invariably
leads to labor saving machinery and
improved production processes, High
wages have invariably resulted in CON
structive changes, beneficial to workers
and AVE resulted in increased produc-
ton.
1.-THE second misstatement used tC
the discredit of wage earners is thai
output Is deliberately restricted by tho
organized labor movement n by linn.
itation of hours of work. In many in
dustries production Is below pre-wal
volume. This Is not due to labor, but
to unsettled trade conditions, managerial
policies and high costs of raw materials
Wage earners as we'll as employers are
anxious to end this neriod,'

DIXIE HAS NEW
FISH SKIN PLANTS

WASHINGTON, Sept. ga new in
dustry is springing up along the sea-
coatst Of the South for the produce
tion Of leather from fish skins. Re-
ports to the bureau of fisheries show
excellent progress In the tanning of
fish leather is being made, and a num-
Der Of the difficulties that have re-
tarded the development of the industry
have been overcome by tanners In this
field.
One company which is tanning fish
skins has established a station in North
Carolina and another in Florida for
the capture of sharks and PURPOSES,
and is meeting with success In Its fish
cry for sharks. 1t is understood that
the number of stations will be increas-
ed as rapidly as possible.
Samples of leather recently submitted
to the bureau of fisheries show marked
improvement in appearance over earlier
samples. The leather is soft and pill
able and appears to have ample
strength for many purposes. Arrange
ments have been perfected for the bu-
reau of standards to make tests OF
later products as to durability, tensile
strength and wearing qualities.
A special net developed by the bu-
e of fisheries for the capture OF
sharks Is proving successful n is be-
ing adopted for the fishery. At these
stations liver oil is extracted and the
fish is converted into fertilizer.
