Few Answer Sugar Cards.
The return post cards sent out a
few weeks ago by Letts-Fletcher
Company. that IL might get some
idea of the amount of sugar their
patrons would need, we're answered
by only n few people, About $500
of the cards were mailed. asking that
the return post card be remailed CIV
ing the desired information and of
the number only $50 answered. OF
this number 125 had bought sugar
for canning purposes.
The company has found, in trying
to ascertain the average number who
have bought that about one-fifth is
the average found thru various other
channels. People did not seem to
recognize the fact that they were
the ones to reap the benefit from
this system, some having the idea
that the company was the only one
that was going to be benefited.

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
 SUCCESSFUL

ROCHESTER, N. Y., Aug. 2 (by Associated Press). - Collective bar gaining is the method adopted by the clothing industry in Rochester to solve it's labor problems. Manufacturers declare that it has been so successful here that the National Industrial Fed eration of Clothing Manufacturers has been formed to deal with national organization of the workers. Tn a time when strikes have been frequent in other industries there has been peace in this industry here, except .n one plant which is not party to the agreement between the employees and workers
 Shoe manufacturers of Rochester 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 man. agers, representing the employers, says that the union suffered no loss by doing so but on the contrary the ~S Jo4h 0roonj1nH has increased from 50 per cent of the total employed to 90 or 95 per cent.
 As the collective bargaining plan operates here, the more general agree ments between the workers and em- ployers are made by local joint board, composed of representatives of the clothing manufacturers and the workers Working conditions are formulated by a labor adjustment board composed of representatives of both sides. It's decisions become the laws of the industry. Appeals can be taken to a court presided over by an impartial judge whose decisions are accepted by both sides as final.
 Tn the shops labor managers repre- sent the employer and shop chairman the unions. The manufacturers have their price commodities and time study men and the unions retain their local business agents.
 The plan had it's conception as the result of threat of the workers to go on strike In it's adoption the manu- lecturers obtained the advice of Dr.. Meyer Jacobstein of the University of Rochester, who has been teaching methods of service management.

BRITISH WORK CLEVER GAME
 ON ARGENTINA

BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 8 (by Asso- ciated Press) Although the agree ment on the part of the British gov- ernment to pay off the S50,000,OO0 owed by Argentina to United States bankers was hailed here as "an act of friendship" official publicity was not given to the understanding in banking circles that the agreement was only conditional part of an in- genious financial arrangement which enables Great Britain to pay her own S100 100000 debt to Argentina without sending to this country single cent.
 Not only is this s50,000,000 to be credited by Argentina against Great Britain's obligation, but the remaining S50,000,000, after being renewed, is to. be gradually extinguished through an = Arrangement whereby Great Britain for certain period pays in London the interest on the principal part of Argentinas external debt, bankers have learned
 The Argentine government, which was unable to get a renewal of the loan in the United States, has made public only the fact that Great Bri- tain has agreed to take care of the obligation in behalf of Argentina and La Epoca, the government organ, has praised the transaction as an evidence of Great Britain's friendship to Argen- tina and of great promise for the future relations of the two countries.
 Bankers say there is no doubt but that the payment by Great Britain of Argentina's debt has greatly increased the prestige of the British in this country and has been correspondingly detrim mental to that of the United States, but call attention to the fact that the transaction is not without it's advantage to Great Britain also. ~~
 'I regret it very, much" said one Argentine banker to the Associated Press correspondent, "but I fear the failure of the American bankers to re- new our loan and the fact that Great Britain has stepped into the breach and paid it, mean loss of economic good will toward the United States. While the complete transaction is a good business deal for Great Britain, the fact stands out in public opinion that the British did what the Amer jeans would not. We in financial cir cles understand that money is badly needed for domestic purposes in the United States Nevertheless, Britain and America are represented as wag ing a commercial contest for trade in Argentina The economic effect of the transaction in favor of British prestige is obvious"
 As told in local banking circles, the best terms that Finance Minister Sal aberry could get from the American bankers on his recent trip to the Unit ed States was renewal of the S5O,- 0OO for five years at per cent, the bankers asking delivery of the new bonds at e2 which would have bAan equivalent to an interest of 9A per cent.
 Turning to the British government through a prominent Anglo-Argentine banker, the minister was able to get a loan of s5O,OOO,O ,OOO at per cent to pay off the Americans. This he was able to do, it is pointed out, because of conditions which enable Great Bri- tain to pay her own obligation to Ar genuine, s1OO,O00,OOO credit for cereals, on favorable terms.

RE-APPoRTIoNMENT

The matter of re-apportionment of
the lower house of the Florida legis-
lature is a question of the greatest
Importance, and justly so. for the
present apportionment is most dis
proportionate
Following is the section of the con-
stitution dealing with the question:
Census and Apportionment. Arti-
Gle VII Section 3.-The legislature
that shall meet A. D. 1887, and those
that shall meet every ten years there
after, shall apportion the representa-
ton in the senate, the whole number
of senators not to exceed thirty-two
members; and at the same time shall
also apportion the representation in
the house of representatives not to
exceed sixty-eight members. The rep
resentation in the house of represen-
tatives shall be apportioned among
the several counties as nearly as pos
sible according to population; Pro-
|vided, each county shall have one rep
resentative at large in the house OF
representatives, and no county shall
have more than three representa-
tives."
There have been some moves to-
ward reapportionment, but they have
not arrived anywhere, owing to the
question always bringing up a dis
pute as soon as it was preached. We
understand that the last attempt
failed because some of the bigger
counties demanded three represents
tives, and the smaller, or rather less
populated, resisted this. Polite.
ruled the entire controversy; there
was little thought among the legisla
tors of the welfare of the people.
1t seems to the Star that the pres
ent legislature should submit to the
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1920-11-17

people an amendment giving future
legislatures the right to apportion
the representation of the counties in
a manner that would prevent the
matter being the football of polite
ians. Every county, according to the
constitution, must have representa-
tive, and it is our opinion should have
not less than one representative to
every twenty thousand people or frac-
ton thereof. We see no use in hold
ing a county down to three represen-
tatives, when it has $4,000 or more
people. At the same time. sliding
scale for representation should be
provided for, as In Congress, where
each state, while given more repre-
sentatives as its population increases,
is also required to have more people
for each representative.
Thirty-tWo men do not make SEN
ate large enough for a state contain
ing million population. The small
number of men in the Florida senate
and their four-year terms have made
IL a body not as responsive to the
wishes of the people as it should be.
Every county of twenty thousand or
more people should have a senator of
Its own, and the smaller counties
should be grouped into districts, so
each group would have twenty thou
sand people or more This would In
crease the present senate member
ship at once, and at. the same time
provide for further. increase by an
Iautomatic method that would mini
naize political machination over the
erection of small counties into dis
tricts.
The apportionment of senators and
Representatives thirty-three years age
was not very symmetrical-it is a
n1onstrosity now.

that is that Tuscawilla street, between

It's the Stars opinion that the
British government. having broken
the Sim Fem hunger strike, should
pardon the misguided men in Cork
jail and let them go home as soon
as it is safe TO move them. They
have suffered enough to pay for what
ever ofense they have committed.
And we hope that there are at least
some men among the leaders of the
Sim Fem or Irish Republic that are
beginning. to realize that the civilized
world despises them for instructing
men to undergo ordeals that they will
not endure themselves.

IMPOSING ON THE
SCHOOL CHILDREN

We had supposed that when the
last cold spell was over last spring
that the school children of Ocala
would never be called on to suffer IN
cold and wet in their schoolhouses
again. Alas, the suppositionl They
had a bitter and miserable day Of it
yesterday, and will have another to-
day, unless the school is dismissed
until warm weather returns.
Yesterday morning, the children
went TO the schools thru heavy
rainstornl. To those whose parents
could send them in cars, this made
little difference But few of those
who had to walk made the trip with
out wetting their feet and a great
many their legs to their knees. There
IS no way of heating the high school,
the northern and western rooms are
as chilly as tombs and the others but
little better. Here they had TO stay
until their clothes dried on them
not only very uncomfortable but inn
periling their health. Some of them
were let out soon, but each and eve
rycne who arrived with wet feet and
clothes should have been sent back at
once.
1t will probably surprise the people
of Ocala to know that away along
here, past the middle of November,
the heating apparatus of their high
school is not yet in working condi-
ticn. The contract was not let until
shcrt time before school opened,
and after that the contractor was sub
iected to great difficulty and delay
in obtaining MATERIAL Barring acct
dents, he expects to finish the work
in a few days more, but in the mean
time the Star thinks the school au-
thorities have no right to- have the
children in school when they are mis-
cradle from cold and wet.
The Star reporter yesterday morn
ing saw scores of children going 70
school thru the driving rain with no
shelter but umbrellas, and many
without them. The streets were run
ming with genuine creeks, too wide
for them to jump, so they had tc
wade. It's safe bet that a hundred
reached the unheated rooms of the
school wet from the knees down. Ir
the late afternoon a number of the
little men and women told the Stal
what a miserable time they had dur
ing the day.
1t is time, and past time, that sucl
things be prevented.
