Editor Times: AS you have never
published my picture in the Times,
wish you would do so. Never mind
il it is upside down, as I feel rather
upset anyway. Now from my quiet
retreat venture my opinion on lead
ing issues, viz: 1st, AS to the Amer
lean flag. it does not mean liberty,
for l monkeyed with it two years ago
and have not had liberty since.
AS to the league of nations. if the
A. e. F. were sample of the boys
that will come over to police Europe,
I am agtn it. The boys are too siren
uous.
AS TO the high cost of living-you
fellows over in the u. S. A. are pay
ing for the war, so l have no cause
TO complain. AS me and my five
sCns were not on the firing line our
clothes are not mussed or worn, and
last but not least prohibition will
mean there will be more lager for us
over here.
As l have covered the leading ques-
tions. beg to sign myself CONTRARY

The general run of socialists are
harmless people, and should not be
gwen SO much attention in the press.
Ihey are ridiculous for the reason
mat while few of them are business
men, or employ many people, yet they
nave elaborate plans to run our COM
pick system of government, and they
would fill our high offices with com
rades' who scorn the ordinary rules
OF business as being only the meth
ods of plutocracy.

POWDERED MILK FAC
TORY FOR MERIDIAN

A meeting will be held at the new
office Of the Boise Cooperative
creamery company in Boise to-day to
plan for the building of a milk pow
der factory at Meridian, to cost about
10000. The manufacture of cheese
will be continued and both together
should prove to be highly beneficial
as market for the dairy production
of this vicinity The dairy indus
try is assuming such proportions here
that various outlets must be found
for the milk, and this is one way in
which il can be handled.
The dairy industry probably brings
$4,000,000 into the hands of the
Boise valley farmer each year, and in
the Meridian section alone, not less
than 100000 is paid out in cream
cry and milk checks.

There are some people who have

The good work that the club boys
and girls can do will help to over
come that handicap-and the clul
boys and girls will 10 that kind of
work this year. 1t may hearten you
to know that many Of us here in the
Department of Agriculture look upon
the boys and girls clubs much as
Caesar must have looked upon tho
Tenth Legion or Napoleon upon the
Old Guard The other forces may
fall but we know that we can rely
On you.
IL might not be willing to see you
undertake such serious service If I
did not know that, while you work
hard, you play joyously together.
am sure that the boys and girls in
the clubs have better times than
those who are not in the clubs, and
that Is an additional compensation
to YOU for the hard work you do in
club work. T.. r. Meredith

the knowledge thus gained through
out your whole lives.
Even as boys and girls you are
accomplishing more good than can be
measured. The good that you will be
able to do will increase as you grow
older, and, when you become full
grown men and women, you can sup
ply for the agricultural forces Of this
nation leadership such as the world
has never known before.
81 congratulate the Boys and
Girls Club members. And | would
like to ask a favor Of the boys and
girls who are not members Of the
clubs. We are trying-the United
States Department Of Agriculture,
tie State agricultural colleges and a
great many other people-to make
the farms Of this country more pro-
fitable and home life on the farm
more pleasant. wish the rest Of you
boys and girls would Join with those
who are already members Of the
clubs and help us in accomplishing
this great service for our common
country. 1t Is patriotic thing to
do, and 1t Is service that cannot
be rendered by anybody except you
boys and girls.
THE year 1920 should be the big
gest year in the history OF club work,
and am confident that 1t will be.
The country IS facing difficult sit
uatlon because 80 many men have
left the farms to work in the cities.

SAY BUILDERS PLOT 10 KEEP
 PROFITS HIGH
tBy United Press1

Washington, Dec. Wholesale prosecution of employees of labor and labor leaders, alleged to be guilty of conspiracy to increase profits in the building trades, and government su- pervision of the coal industry are rec concentrations made to congress to- day in the report of the committee on reconstruction and production. Sen ator W. NJ. Calder of New York, Re publican, chairman of the committee. presented it's report.
 Housing conditions in American in- dustrlal centers have been under in- vestigation by the committee. mad equate and unsatisfactory quarters oc- cupied by labor in general are crip- bling industry, have become a menace to public health and are lowering the morale of the working classes, the committee found. Government super vision of coal mining and distribution was recommended as a means of de- creasing the cost to the ultimate con- sumer.
 The special committees report on housing conditions declared that rent als have increased from 25 to 150 per cent, and that construction of homes during the past four years has equal ed the total for only one normal year. It further declared that an average home which formerly cost S3,0OO now costs $6,000, Six separate recom- mendations were made to the senate for relief from present conditions.
 On the coal shortage and prices. the committee asserted that as a last resort congress may be compelled to enact legislation for the licensing of the industry and it's operation under government supervision.
 Senator Kenyon of Iowa. a member of the committee, called the cost of coal a deliberate plundering of the American people. of this continued plundering of the American people is to go on," Senator Kenyon said, T shall favor taking over of the mines by the government And in my iudg- ment, it could be done constitutional ly."
