ers could only gain a more or less
hazy idea FNt
The work now, however, has gone
far enough so that the company be-
lieves there will be po difficulty what
ever in prospective purchasers obtain
ing clear idea of what is being Of
fered. Hence Mr.. Lamb, whose Office
is in the Knox County Savings bank,
is ready to 60 over the houses with
anyone who may be interested.
AS very few persons have any idea

Health Official
Requires Makeup
To Play Sherlock

DR.. William c. Fowler, District
health officer, has abandoned hope
Of being a food inspector. Recently,
he said yesterday, he went around
the city looking into sanitary con-
ditions, much the same as Haroun
Al Raschid used to journey through
Bagdad.
The only difference was that DR..
Fowler didn't wear a disguise. He
considered himself safe from detec-
ton by food or drink dealers OF
guilty consciences.
DR.. Fowler walked into a near
beer establishment with non
ehalant air, as IL the idea of pick
ing flaws in the management of
such places, as far as sanitary regu-
lations were concerned was furthest
from his mind. Secure in the belief
that he was unknown, he walked to
the bar where the fat little proprie-
tor stood.
The latter glanced up as the
health officer approached.
Hello. doctor" he called out,
cheerily.
That's why DR.. Fowler does all
his work in his office now.

Be Resisted.

PubIic Ledger seryfce.)

Organized labor yesterday issued
solemn warning that the workmen
Of the country will resist to the last
ditch any reduction in wages or any
-curtailment in industry, either as
o. a prediction trick or as a general
policy.
30 The warning came from Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation Of Labor. and was
prompted by the recent action of the
Pennsylvania Railroad in dropping
$4,000 men and the shutdown of the
HmilIs of the American Woolen Com
pany.
- rs the laying of of workers"
asked Gompers, "a revival of the
old and crude policy Of laying off
men during a political campaign for
the purpose of driving them in
fright and necessity into political
camp?
Employers" continued Mr.. Com
-pers, have called fof increased pro-
duction. too frequently as a means
Of driving the workers to unpaid
efforts. There is no trouble with the
efficiency of the workers. There
Is too lnfreQuently an equal EN-
cheney and integrity and intelligence
in the management of industry.
"Managements Of large plants
should consult the workers through
chosen representatives. of the
workers and the cooperation thus
r. achieved will give the nation the
production II needs and that is
needed by the whole world"
In commenting on the closing OF
the mills of the American Woolen
Company Mr.. Gompers referred to
the profits of this company and the
recent statements of William w
Wood, its president. Mr.. Gompers
said:
d. The American Wooden Company
increased its net income 3l6 per
cent for 1918 over 1914. In 1918
the earnings per share on common
stock were s13.S6. a total of s5,572,-
52T. President Wood told his stock
holders that the close of the year
left the company with untitled or
dsrs sufficient to keep the ma
chinery fully employed well into
1920 and with good prospects for
full production for the entire year"
