their requests the Wishing Fairy
granted them. The canary bird, now
an opera singer, had just finished sing,

calling for a speech and the canary
bird couldn't make a speech. He had
nothing to say. He could only chirp.

The moon was sitting on the counter

you can't run and play, for you've no

the moon, grinning from ear to ear.

TO one Of its new companions, whom
it wanted to be like, a silken jacket
that when they went calling as they
planned to do, they'd better wear
aprons over themselves in case they
were asked to dust or sweep or clean

And the silllen jacket had turned

Here's an up = to date
story, if there ever was one.
In the opening chapter the
hero is an unkempt tramp;
at the end he's a candidate
for the mayoraIty of Chi
CagO, a capitalist and the
lover of a fashionable girl
on the Lake Shore drive. So
there is room for lots of ex-
citing experiences in be-
tween.
The Lake Shore drive girl
gives him a dollar to buy
soap and cures him of being
a hobo. A beautiful Russian
woman starts him in anar-
Chy. A poker game starts
him as a successful grain
SpeCuIator and introduces
him to society. Failure to
win the Lake Shore girl
leads him into politics as a
distraction.

lective bargaining is the method
adopted by the clothing industry
in Rochester to solve it's labor
problems Manufacturers de-
clare that it has been so success
full here that the National Indus
trial Federation Of Clothing
Manufacturers has been formed
to deal with a national organiza-
ton Of the workers. In a time
when strikes have been frequent
in other industries there has been
pace in this industry here, except
in one plant which is not a party
to the agreement between the EN-
ployers and workers.
Shoe manufacturers Of Roches-
ter have adopted the plan and
ended a strike by an agreement
similar to that in the clothing
trade.
Under these agreements, the
strike and lockout are believed
to have been Eliminated and the
open shop prevails. The union
relinquished it's claim for a closed
shop. One Of the labor managers
representing the employers, says
that the union suffered no loss by
doing so but that on the contrary
the number Of clothing workers
organized has increased from sc
percent Of the total employed tc
80 or 95 percent.

New York, June 1.-the need
Of making agricultural wages

the necessity of the government

farmers will pay for it, we're EN-
phasized in the report Of the Ag-
ricultural Committee Of the Re
publican Party's Policies and
Platforms Committee, made pub
lie here today. Low wages paid
to skilled and reliable farmers
and the depleted richness Of
American soil, it was said, had
combined to make the national

certain
The committee, under the direc-
ton Of Arthur Capper who acted
as chairman, urged that a nation
al, commission he appointed to
coordinate all rail, water and mo-
tor transport with adequate fact
lities for receiving, handling and
transporting food between cities.
This commission, it was said,

The International Trade and
Credits Committee, headed by
Frank A. Vanderlip, as chairman
urged the inauguration Of an ef-
fective cooperation at home and
abroad between governmental Of

Americas foreign trade relations.
This cooperation, it was stated,
was needed to replace what was
described as a loose and overlap
ping foreign tradee service, rife
with inconsistencies and inter
departmental controversies.
In describing the shift Of the
United States International posi-
tion from a debtor nation to a
creditor nation the confmittee 3

outcome Of this shift will mean an
