Exchange
Store Closed

Portland, Or, July 23.-Organized
labor welded facile pen last night
and with splotches of red ink wrote
'finis' for the state exchange store, a
cooperative retail store operated for,
the past year by and on behalf Of
members of organized labor.
A report of, the store trustees as
submitted to the labor council show
ed that the store has been steadily
losing money since the first of the
year, and it's financial conditions is
now such as to warrant the closing up
of the business.
According to officials of the store,
the failure of organized labor to sup
port its own store was given as the
cause for it's financial distress. A chat
tel mortgage of $4,000 falls due To-Day
with no funds in sight with which to
pay it.
