would come long periods when he would
not touch n drop" Miss Ross said. But
recently he has been drinking and he
obtained his liquor some place between
the shop on Scioto street and our home
on Ohio street. He drank too much Sat
urday and Sunday, but remained at home
Monday and he fully recovered from the
liquor yesterday. He was sober when
he ate supper with me last night and
he was sober when ne left home about
Z: 80 last night. He knew no person in

There was a deep scar or cut on Ross

have been caused by falling against the
rock In the bottom of the creek, and the
left knee OF his trousers was torn. Ross
was assaulted by two robbers Nov II, his
sister said, and was brought home by two
police officers in an automobile.
Ross left home last night after sup
per and at that time be was sober. When
be was found the body was stiff, and
there was every indication that he had
been dead some hours.
Both George and Eugenia Ross, brother
and sister OF the dead man, were at a loss
today to give a reason why he should
have gone to the southeast part of the
city, or how he happened to get into
Pleasant Run.

MINUTES OF MEETING OF THE
ELY COMMERCIAL CLUB HELD
AT THE CLUB ROOMS, MARCH
22, 1921.

Meeting called to order at 500
IP. M. by President Peter Schaefer.
The minutes of the meeting of
February 8, were read and approved
without correction.
The following communications were
read:
Letter from the Board of Commerce
of Little Falls, Minn., asking the Ely
Commercial Club to assist through
their representatives in urging the
direct passage of measures furthering
provisions of Babcock Amendment
No. 1.
Moved and supported that the Sec
retary write Representative Thomas

erything possible to facilitate the put

the Amendment.

Engineering Education, and the U.
S. Bureau of Mines. The president
of the Joseph A. Holmes Safety As
sociation was directed TO appoint a
chairman, and the presidents of the
National Safety Council, the Amer
lean Mining Congress, the National
Coal Association, and the United
Mine Workers of America, and the
Director of the Bureau of Mines were
requested to appoint members of a
committee of six to prepare detailed
plans for the organization and con-
duct of the work of the safety Chap
ters of the Association, supervise the
organization and conduct of the work
of the safety chapters and safeguard
against duplication of the mine-safety
work of any organization at present
working in that field.
1t is the hope of the promoters that
the various local safety chapters in
the mining communities of the
country will constitute the means of
bringing together the miner and the
nine officials as common workers in
the great cause of making safer the
operation of the $4,000 mines, quar-
ries and smelters in which million
men do their daily toll. 1t is pro-
posed that the local chapters shall
encourage their members to take first
aid training, expound at all times and
in all places the gospel of Safety
First, and hold meetings at regular
intervals to discuss methods of in
creasing safety, good sanitation, and
maintenance of health. The local
chapters will also serve as recrea-
tional centers, and are expected to
provide the place and occasion for
numerous interesting events of a
social and welfare nature. The con-
stitution to be drafted for the gov
ernment of local chapters will restrict
their activities to safety and recrea-
tional lines. Inspectors will visit
the local chapters from time to time
for the purpose of reviewing the work
of the chapters and stimulating en-
thusiasm for the safety cause.
Approximately $4,000 miners in
various parts of the United States
have been given thorough training
in frst-aid and mine-rescue work by
the Bureau of Mines; and frequently
local and unattached safety societies
have been organized in mining towns
following the training. With no prac-
tical means of following up the work,
however, the enthusiasm of those
trained would naturally slacken with
the passing of time. 1t was felt that
there was real need of well-organ-
lied national association which might
keep alive the interest aroused by the
training work of the bureau, and it
was considered that the Joseph A.
| Holmes Safety Association was best
fitted for the effort. In addition to
the host of miners trained within the
past eleven years by the Bureau OF
Mines, there are in the various min
ing communities more than eighty
independent and unattached safety
societies which are understood to be
anxious to merge with the larger
body.

Bond Proposed
ToPave Dallas
Main Streets

Dallas. Nov. 8. - At the last
meeting of the Dallas Commercial
club 1t was decided to submit to
the taxpayers of Dallas proposal
to again levy 10 mills on the valu-
alton for hard surfaced road build
ing within the city.
r. L. Chapman, who proposed
the move, said that he believed
Dallas should continue the poncy
of paving the main roads leading
out of town until they are all hard
surfaced, thus encouraging the
county and state to do their share
of the paving. He spoke of the
paving of the road leading north
to meet the pavement from Salem,
and said that the main roads in
all directions should be treated in
a like manner. He held that to
pave to the city limits on the Falls
City road would necessitate but
about a half mile of hard surfac-
ing.
From the talk it seemed that, IL
the plan carries, the Falls City
road will be the first main high
way favored. other roads, if the
levy is continued from year TO
year. will later receive attention.
All this developed from talk to the
effect that the roads that are nat
ural trade getters for Dallas have
not received the attention to
which they were entitled in the
past.
The procedure that is necessary
is that after published notice is
given the taxpayers of the district
gather at the place where the
meeting is to be held, and decide
whether or not the lazy shall be
made. Last year the meeting was
held in the court house. Two
weeks notice must be given of the
meeting.
Last year the county supple
mented by $4,000 the lazy made
by Dallas. An effort will be
made to secure ike favorable ac-
tion by the county court this year.
This to some extent depends upon
the outcome Of Tuesdays election.
Some members of the club, when
the motion was under considera-
tion and before it was passed,
questioned whether the taxpayers
of Dallas at this time will favor
such as extra levy, but it was de-
cided to submit the question and
allow the citizens to decide wheth-
er they desire to continue the
building of paved roads leading
out Of town.

members Of our organization real
ize that we want them to suffer as
little hardship as possible from the
hard times that have befaIlen the
company.
1t is only because of the great
est necessity that we bring up the
need of further substantial re-
duction in expenses so that we can
meet the competition of other
concerns operating on much lower
labor costs. We have been doing
all that we can in this direction
but unfortunately wages form
such a large part Of our expenses
that it now becomes necessary to
consider an early reduction Of
wage rates.
Amount Undecided
If investors would be unwill-
ing to put their money into the
packing business, we should have
to curtail operations, causing
more unemployment, and thereby
injure our workmen, ourselves
and the general public.
I'VE have a very heavy obliga-
tion to our 10000 share holders,
among. whom are $1,000 of our
own workmen.
1T Is also well known fact
that the wages in other industries
have come down faster than wages
in the packing industries, and I
believe that every one in our
organization realizes that the only
questions today are
Il. How much wages will have
to be reduced?
"2. How soon is the reduction
to be made?
I'VE have held off this matter
as long as we possibly can-longer
than our business warranted but
having established a system of
cooperation through plant assem-
blies, we want to feel that we can
consult with our employees
through those assemblies on every
vital matter that concerns them.
For this reason we have not taken
action before.
