NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR OR.
CANNING IRON AND STEEL
WORKERS

At meeting of the National Com
mittee for organizing Iron and Steel
Workers in Pittsburgh last week, re-
ports from different sections of the
country were made and in all cases
there was an unmistakable note Oh
optimism regarding the outlook. In
most Of the localities men are attend
ing the meetings of their local unions,
paying their dues, and in practically
all cases, where some went back into
the mills before the ending of the
strike, there is an effort being made
by the men to learn on what basis
they can return to the organizations.
The granting of 10 per cent in
crease in wages by the U. S. Steel
Corporation, intended to satisfy the
terrific unrest that the trust itself
can no longer ignore, has had quite a
contrary effect from that intended
The men without exception regard the
increase as the first monitary return
on their great strike. Coming on the
heels of the strike itself, the stee!
workers are now showing more deter
mination than ever to force the eight
hour day, collective bargaining and
the other demands consideration of
which were scorned by the heads Of
the steel corporations but few
months ago. This indicates the feel
ings of the men.
The attitude of the labor organiza-
tions that were involved can be no
better stated than to say that the
National Committee meeting last
week was as we'll attended and as en-
thusiastic as any meeting that has
ever been held since the Committee
was formed year and a half ago. The
members feel very emphatically that
it is not only their duty to the steel
workers to continue the fight till the
steel industry is in line with other
industries in matters of hours, wages
and the like, but that it is but fair to
the many trade unionists all over the
country who contributed so generous
ly to the support of the steel strike
to free them from competitive con-
dition in industry that continually
hampered their own unending fight
for shorter hours and better WORT ng
conditions.
One of the interesting side-lights
on the great campaign to enroll the
iron and steel workers under the ham
ner of the American Federation of
Labor was banquet held on Tues
day of last week at the An ierson
Hotel in Pittsburgh in honor of Vim.
z. Foster. Attending the gath ring
were more than fifty organizers, all
of whom had worked with Mr.. Foster
during greater or lesser time in the
memorable campaign. At the con-
clusion of very sumptuOus repast
former Secretary Foster was pres
ented with handsome gold watch,
chain and pocket knife.
In acknowledging the gift Brother
Foster gave a splendid review of the
whole steel campaign. In spite of the
bitter attacks that Foster has been
the target for the past year. there
was not a sign of bitterness on his
part. Dispassionately he gave an
outline of the difficulties that had TO

years are logical and there is no
reason why We should change now.
The two bills in question are a direct
blow at Americanism and the ad-
vocates of such bills are, in view of
their political power, worse menace
to the Government than the royal
family is to Europe which history
reveals have dragged humanity into
the mire for ages, even though we
Americans did bow so gracefully to

CONDI IT|0NS IN
 SOUTHWEST VERY GOOD FOR AUTOS

T am perfectly satisfied with, pres ent conditions and the outlook for the future in the southwest" said w. F.. Gardner, head of the company which bears his name. MT. Gardner returned a few days ago from an extended trip over Arizona. New Mexico and Texas. in the interest of locating agencies fol. the Oakland, Chandler. Cleveland and Marmon cars. for which his company is the distributor.
 Gardner is especially enthusiastic over conditions in Arizona. Every where he went he found a great de- mand for cars. In Douglas he found that Charley Leach. formerly connect ed with the Ford people in Phoenix. was having phenomenalf business. Leach is the Douglas agent for the Oakland, and has sold far more than his share in the short time he has had the agency.
 The NJ. B. Mercer company of No gales took the agency for the Chandler for Santa Cruz county and that DOT tion of old Mexico which is adjacent to Nogales.
 While on the trip MT. Gardner drove the new Cleveland roadster, the first one of its kind to be seen in this sec tion of the country. It made decided impression wherever he took it. and went through the entire trip without bit of trouble.

STUDEBAKERS HAD ID GIVE. WAY FOR
 4 BABY DAUGHTER

The Studebaker organization. for which Barrett & Pottberg are respon- sible, was all up in the air yesterday. Work which had to be done, of course, was put out of the way, but other tri- fling matters were certainly set aside. There was much rejoicing and a feel ing of What the - (well-known back-stage wOrd) do we care now." seemed to permeate the place.
 And all of this, too, over one small baby girl which arrived at the homo of NJ. P. Barrett yesterday morning Everyone around the place wC-e a broad smile. and Barrett couldn't talk business if he knew he could sell all the cars ever put out by the Stude- baker corporation It was not neces- sary to sell cars yesterday; it was just an off day in which the usual com pliments were extended to the new father, and plans made to sell more Studebakers in the future so that when she grows up she cain have a great big 24 4-cylinder limousine all to herself.
 Mrs. Barrett and the new daughter were doing very well yesterday. MT. Barrett will probably be back at work in d few days.

BIC RECORD MADE
 IN SELLING USED
 CARS IN PHOENIX

Aroor day was a noteworthy day for the R. D. Roper Motor company for a unique reason. On that day when R. D. Roper sold a Maxwell truck to Hug sett & Reese of Chandler and took in a used car as part of the initial deposit the used car department reported that they mad handled 400 used cars since establishing a record system less than TWO years ago. In other words, they nave taken in trade 400 cars of various makes on Maxwell cars and trucks and Cnalmers cars from customers and nave disposed of them after giving edch and every car thorough inspec- tion and overhaul when necessary very often they have repainted. and retopped them
 We are immensely proud of this record, especially when we know that We have given full value in each and every case, says MT. Roper Many or our customers have purchased more than one used far from us and we have d constant demand for Roper's re- heWed road runners, as we call our oVerhauled and refinished MaxweIls of tne 1sIo-II models. Of late we very oi.en receive orders by mail from peo- ple who read our used car classified ao ana make their selection in that way only, and it is our former used car friends Al
 To us" states R. D. Roper "the used car department is as important a part of the business as the sale of new cars, in that it is equally import ant to give the used car buyer his moneys worth, and then some. as it. is the new buyer.
 Four hundred cars in about 400 working days, we understand sets new record in used car business for this territory"

THE USUAL HING

If in a shabby car he rides We criticise him, and. besides, We joke about his famous name And wonder if he has no shame. But if he sports a limousine, We turn with jealousy bright green, And wonder how such things he gets, And how the esdeuce he pays his debts.

Shreveport, La, March 26.-One
hundred fifty-nine wildcat wells to
cost approximately $6,000,000 are
being drilled in the north Louisiana
oil fields, according to statistics
compiled by the Louisiana news
bureau. All of the wells are being

fields Of Homer, Bull Bayou and
Caddo, principally in Claiborne.
Bossier, Bienville and DeSoto par
ishes OF Louisiana. A number OF
wells are being drilled in Harrison
and Pamela counties, East Texas.
From sixty to ninety days are
required for a drill to go through
the soft formation Of Louisiana to

found in proven pools around 1900
to 2,100 feet. Operations have been
