The days of readjustment and re-
trenchment are here. Reductions in
foodstuffs, cotton, wool, lumber and
other produce, raw materials and
manufactured goods are being fol-
lowed here and there by wage reduc-
tons. Labor will not take kindly to
this, after its long ride on the top
wave of prosperity, and is also face
to face with desperate fight against

departments the release of EMPLOYEES
amounts TO 10 per cent. Some of
the men released are those who, un-

were employed to make out the elab-
crate system of reports required. No
wage reductions are announced, but
as the supply of labor begins to ex-
coed the demand, this will naturally
follow. The danger the country now
faces is that the movement for re-
trenchment may become a stampede.
A gradual readjustment would be
better for the country. Labor must

JOURNAL PRINTED BY INDIANS
cherokees Once Had a Newspaper
That May Be Said to Have Be-
come a Power.

The Cherokee Indians, when still oc-
cupying what now is the state of Geor-
gia, published newspaper in their ma
tive tongue in 1928. One of their tribe,
Sequoyah by name, in 1923 designed
sc characters that were to represent
the Cherokee language in print The
national committee and council of the
tribe meeting at New Echota, the cap
ital of .heir nation, in 1926, voted a
fund to buy type, press and the nee
essary equipment. The paper was
known as the Cherokee Phoenix Half
of it was printed in Cherokee and half
in English. Hundreds of full-blood In
dams who otherwise would have re-
manned illiterate all their lives, were
thus enabled to read after mastering
the alphabet. These Indians became
subscribers of the paper, as did MEM
bers of neighboring states, and the pa
per became power.
The Phoenix was known in Eu-
rope" and among other famous pa
pers that asked to be placed on the
exchange list was the London Times
The paper was in operation for about
five years, and was harassed when the
movement having for its object the re-
moval of the Cherokee Indians west
ward was at its height. Ii suspended
publication when the Georgia state
legislature forbid a white man to live
among the Cherokees.
The honor of be- oming the first Ii
dian editor fell to Elias Boudinot, a
native-born citizen of the nation.
