many parts of the country is dying

revive it people will continue to go

Federation bureau meeting here to-

Mrs. ]. c. Ketchum of Hastings,
Mich, declared. AS, long as condi-
tions remain as they are or con-
tinue to grow worse, the women
will rebel and refuse to live on the

Another thing which must be
done is to educate the city people
to a realization of these conditions.
Many of them feel very bitter to-

ALLEGED OMAHA
GUN man KILLED
IN TOLEDO FRAY
Man MysteriousIy Shot lden.
: titled by Omaha Police as
Member Of Mckay
Gang.

John Appleby, alias Frank L.
Adams, notorious gun man. and al
legged member of the McKay-Kirk
bandit gang that was captured in a
gun battle with Omaha police fol-
lowing daylight holdup Of the
Malashock jewelry store on January
81. 1918, was mysterlously shot and
killed in Toledo, o., nve nights ago,
according to identification of the
dead man made by Bcrtillon OTcer
Hans Nielsen at Central police sta
ton.
Details of the shooting are vague.
Toledo police say. the man was shot
during drunkeI1 brawl in sa-
loon. Another theory advanced is
that he was a victim of his own
gang that has criminal records in all
leading cities of the country.
The only identification Toledo po-
lice had of the dead man was that
he was Frank Adams. Upon receipt
of a picture of the man, together
with his Bertillon measurements,
Mr.. Nielsen found him to be John
Appleby, alleged sixth member of
the McKay-Kirk gang, that escaped
from that scene of the gun battle in
cottage at Fourteenth avenue and
Spencer street, where Detective
Frank Rooney met his death.
Appleby had been arrested in
Omaha on previous occasions on a
charge of numbering Frank Rooney
and also for highway robbery.
Through legal technicalities he won
his freedom in both cases.
Appleby's name was linked with
members of the McKay-Kirk gang
in the recent scandal centers upon
the release of Beryl c. Kirk, no
torious bandit, from tie state prison
at Lincoln.

CLERKS DROP PEN FOR ID : p.
z. PICK: WAGES BLAMED
(By United Press)

. CLEVELAND o., March MANY
hundreds Of white collar" men are
reported giving UP the pen for the
pick here this spring. w.. 49,. 49,.
Common labor is drawing from IS
to 80 cents an hour and on May the
schedule VITA be raised to 81 an hour,
according to heads of various labor
unions. -
They conservatively estimated that
5000 men left their jobs in offices for
employment.as common laborers or in
the various trades during the past
six months.
Similar reports were received from
other large Industrial centers in
Ohio. In Akron the labor shortage
was said to be particularly acute. The
white collar" ranks there are thin
ming, rapidly. Clerks, 'bookeepers,
statesmen and even those in profess
sional lines, are answering 70. the
lure Of high wages for common labor
and still higher pay for semi-skilled
workers. IN
The shortage Of rooms is held as a
direct cause for mounting wages. AS
it is practically impossible to house
newcomers, manufacturing plants are
forced to tcompete against each for
the local workers, with the result
that a constant turnover of labor is
on at nearly all plants with each
change driving wages upward.
