them that Grunau favored the meeting
and was anxious for the men to take
advantage of the progress they had
made in their strike. He was followed
by R. S. Murphy, former chairman of
the publicity committee of the Chicago
Yardnen's Association.
Murphy had said only few words
when hecklers began to ask where Cru

Murphy made a vain attempt to quiet
the disturbance. The clique changed
its cry to. Let's go, boysl Walk out!

and the speakers voice was drowned in
the uproar as more than 1000 men

Gibbs Reconstruction
Bills Stay in Committee

ALBANY, April 21.-Three recon
struction measures, introduced by SEN
ator l. w. H. Gibbs, Republican, of
Erie, and closely following recon-
mendations made by Governor Smith,
still remain in the Senate Judiciary
Committee. Motions by the introducer
to have the committee discharged from
further consideration of them failed
early to-day, three separate votes being
taken.
Assurance was given by Majority
Leader j. Henry Walters that the Sage
reconstruction measures would be re-
ported shortly. These measures, it was
said, differ from the Gibbs bills in
some important details.
The Gibbs measures are intended to
reduce the number Of departments in
the state government and eliminate the
election Of Secretary of State, Attor-
ney General and State Engineer

During these days of high prices, Karo has
become another word for economy. Thou
sands of thoughtful housewives have learned
that Blue Label Karo is not only a delicious
spread for pancakes, but answers every Pur-

Instead of paying the present high prices
for Jams, jellies and preserves serve Blue

WHO'S PAYING
POLITICAL BILLS
OF GEN. WOOD?
Friends of LOwden and Hard
ing to Ask Congress to Probe
Lavish Spending.
RECKLESS WITH GOLD

WASHINGTON, March 20.-Congres-
sional investigation Of expenditures In
Gen Leonard Woods campaign for the
republican presidential nomination Is to
be sought by friends OF both Gov. Frank
o. Lowden of Illinois and Senator War
rem G. Harding Of Ohio, rival aspirante.
Woods pre-convention campaign, 1t is
declared, is being conducted on scale
hitherto never approached by any as
piring candidate.
Tangible expenses include expensive
headouarters in New York, Chicago and
Washington, high-priced publicity STATS
and a political and clerical staff number
ing hundreds.
WHO FOOTS
THESE BILLS?
Who. the question is, is putting up the
cash? And how much? And why?
These questions are Inevitably in ones
mind after he has looked over the WOOD
layout at his Chicago headquarters.
Space at the Congress hotel is expen-
sive. but Wood headquarters occupy
choicest rooms, and lots of them.
The presidential suite was reserved for
Woods own use when in Chicago. Frank
Hitchcock, campaign manager, shares its
elegance.
More than a score of other rooms, Oc-
cupying virtually one entire wing OF
Parlor B floor, is filed with Wood work
ers, all busy rolling political logs!
George Sunday, son of Evangelist Billy
Sunday, is director Of the publicity staff.
Sunday, like his father, is a whirlwind Of
pep and action.
AND HE USES
SPECIAL CAR.
When Wood goes campaigning he uses
a special car-perhaps even q special
train. Don't mind expense. Get action.
Get the nomination. Those are the
orders
With him go two or three of his
publicity staff. Also a movie operator,
some bill posters and a stock of brilliant
placards advising the good people to
"Vote for Wood"
These expensive extras, previously in
dulged In only in the final campaign
when the national party chests could be
tapped to pay the bills, have stirred
Woods rival candidates.
They are determined to bring about an
airing of the financial side Of the Wood
campaign.
Wood is now conducting an active
fight in at least twenty states" one of
the Lowden managers said today. ANY
one who follows the trail of his organi-
cation work through any state VIII recOg
nize that cash, and lots of it, is necessary
for the organization he has set up.

Members OF the state board Of educa-

allowing the World Book Company to
print advertisements in school spoilers to
save the company from loss under the
contract price of the books.
Representatives of the book publishers
told the board that the company was
losing about 9la cents on each book sold
because OF the advance in printing ex-
penses. They sought permission to in
sert four pages Of advertising in books

The board has learned that $4,000 viii
be available for expenditure in Ameri-

sum comes from the Roosevelt Memorial
