John w. Caldwell, OF Titusville,
Pa, one OF the best boosters for the
Home for Disabled Oil Men. is In
the city and says We are waiting
to hear from Judge Shea, who Is
going to get the charter In pennsyl-
vania, and as soon as the charter
II ready, work to raise money for
the home will begin. There is no
doubt but what the western members
Of the oil men will donate literally
for this much needed institution, and
that the western com mittee will take
immediate action Just as soon as the
charter Is formed.
Usher Carson, formerly In the oil
business here, but now engaged in
mining at Miami, says that there
are ~ mills running out Of 2i0
owing to an agreement made with
the laboring men who preferred to
work for 50 per day instead Of So,
rather than remain idle. He says
the output Of the mills Is selling 50
low, that we're II not for the con-
cessions made by the men. them
selves, that everything would be
smut down tight.

popular OF the younger members of
the oil fraternity, and for the past
two years manager OF the western
divisions and director of the Bicry
OIL company. has resigned his posi-
tion. but will make no announce

Bryan Is one of the Invest wires in

WEATHER TALK

DOSSlBLY it is because coal is little hard to get
l. this year, but we've heard more talk about the
weather in Cedar City this winter than for
good while Some of the sages in this section have
consulted the goose-bone and settled the matter for
themselves. AT the grocery we meet the forecaster
who banks on the thickness of the fur on animals and
also the fellow who depends upon the thickness of
the corn husk to tell him whether the season is going
to be mild or severe. And possibly is because these
three types of weather forecasters do not agree that
we are hearing so much talk about the weather.
The U. S. Weather Bureau forecasters reject the
predictions of the goose-bone. fur and husk fratem
ity, and declare they not scientific. But rule
the man who makes his own weather predictions has
mighty little use for the weather bureau and takes
little stock in its work. The weather bureau contends
that there is no such thing as certainty in longrange
weather predictions contendng that no one can sue
cessfully forecast the weather more than 48 hours
ahead
But whether you prefer to believe the weather
bureau or the homegrown weather prophet, it is
always safe to prepare for severe winter. If we
have one you are fixed for it and can rejoice accord
ngly. If it happens to be mild. you are out nothing,
because coal and wood will keep and. unless all signs
fail, they'll not be any cheaper when you go to buy
again than they were this year.

and set new production standards. These prices in
the main will be lower so that it will be necessary
when tbe plants again resume operation to offer the
old jobs at reduced wage. This is already being
done in many places, and soon destined to become
general 1t is worth while 10 note, too that in most
instances the men are accepting the decreased wage.
That alone will prevent serious industrial hareup
throughout the country
The man who has steady work at good wage
is the one to take note OF these changing conditions
and stay on the Job. Within short time there will
be, tor the hrst time since we entered the war, more
men than there are jobs And it behooves the ones
now working to guard their interests accordingly.
America is gong to come out of it all right, and event
ualy 1t may prove better for all concerned Inc
solution OF the problem we are about to face how
ever, rests with the workers themselves 1t is I'D to
them to assist a readJustment or to create turmoil
by refusing to do so.
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1920-12-03
REIMBURSEMENT is ON

nAILY newspaper reports indicate that the next
IL two or three months are going to witness con-
siderable turmoil in industrial circles in this
country and that we are going to find greater strides
made towards readjusment than we have at any time
since the world war. We don't want Cedar City peo-
pie to feel that an industrial revolution on the way,
and that wages going to smash, that factories are
going to close up tight and stay closed that banks
are going to pull down the blinds and quit Nothing
so bad as that is forecasted
But there are going to be thousands of men
thrown out of work all over the country while this
readjusment going on Factories will release their
men and leave them idle while they revise prceists

range that hard to convert to the beauty OF
the wonderfully carved and painted battements His
mind set in a certain attitude toward them in youth
and is hard to alter. When he hears men from other
lands give them tributes of admiration he lays the
state of their minds to the heat to unaccount
able neglect in their bringing up. 1t is pity these
local citizens cannot be given the the privilege OF
seeing the Breaks through foreign eyes. They would

Cedar citizens of the honor that has been won by the
Cedar Breaksto try to waken them to their respon-

Cedar hotel through to an early completion.
