Program, Dance And
Supper Armistice Day

The plans of the Jackson Cou-
nty Post Of the American Legion
for the Armistice Day celebration
at kadoka on next Friday, Nov
ember 1lth are rapidly assuming
shape and dandy time will be
the outcome Of the committee in
charge of the days program. At
first it was believed by the Legion
that they would be enabled to Sc
cure the official war pictures of
the United States War Depart
ment, but a more detailed invest
igation Of the matter proved that
the costs of getting the pictures
here. together with the attendant
in charge of the films, would be
too heavy an expense at the pres
ent time and it is believed that
these films will be at a much clo-
ser point at later date and will
then be brought to Kadoka by the
Legion Post for the showing to the
people of this community.
An interesting program has
benn prepared for that day, and
big dance and feed will be stag
ed. The program and dance will
be given in the evening and the
public is cordially invited to at
tend. The program will consist of
speaking and musical numbers,
and this will be followed by the
big dance for which the Interior
Orchestra has been employed, and
at midnight supper will be ser
we'd under the auspices Of the Lad

N. .Y.FACTORY help
REDUCED IN JULY
Employment Decreases 2To,
Making Net Drop of 800
Since March, 1920.

ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. 13.-The
number Of workers employed In
New York State factories was fur
ther reduced by 2 per cent between
June and July. says a report issued
today by Industrial Commissioner
Henry d. Sayere, OF the State
department OF labor. This Is shown
by the preliminary tabulation of
1880 July reports from representa-
tive manufacturers received by the
chief statistician. The total de-
cline in employment in the fac
tories Of the State since March.
1920, IL very nearly 80 per cent,
which would indicate tfat the num-
ber of factory workers laid on
since the beginning Of the depres-
sion is approximately 100000.
July Is usually a month Of low
activity In manufacturing. owing
to annual shutdowns during the
month for vacations. repairs and
Inventories. Although a few indus
tries were affected by these shut
downs in July, lack OF orders still
constitute the outstanding factor In
the decrease inN employment since
June. A number OF factories were
closed in July as a result OF lack
of demand. Curtailment OF produc-
ton continued in most OF the In
dustries where decreases IN en-
ployment were reported during re-
cent months. This was particularly
the case in the majority OF the
metal industries. In some OF the
other Industries. notably in textile
manufacturing. reductions In work
ing forces occurred in July after
one or more months of improvement
in activity. In a few instances sea
sonal inactivity contributed to the
reduction in employment during the
month.

It Is conservatively estimated N
railroad circles that net operating
income for 1921 for 2o3 class ! roads
will be between s525.00o. 900 and
$3.50. 900, 900. This will cover fixed

The years prediction has been
made after taking into considera-
ton the saving from the IL per
cent wage reduction. and Il allows
for no more than the regular sea
sonal Improvement IN business. Some
authorities are OF the opinion that
business will exceed normal, while
others are reluctant TO count on
anything more than ordinarily
would be expected
For the first six months net op-
Grating income was tl37,OOo.o0O.
which means that in order TO live
up TO the prediction the roads will
have 70 finish the year with s4l3,-
o00, 900, or t43s.00O. 900 for the final
six months, or about three times
as much business as was done in
the first half.
Railroad executives are OF the
opinion that the public is viewing
the railroad situation with too
much optimism and that too much
is being expected OF 1921 operation.
They point out that present results
have been obtained only by the
most drastic cutting in maintenance
and that this curtailing OF main
tenance expense cannot last always-
They say that there rs the alb
normal number OF 365.O00 bad-order
cars reported on all roads, and that
these can only be put IN suitable
shape at an average cost OF $500
per car. This would amount 20
$4,000. 900 for this work alone, s'-
though this figure can be reduced
to ss6. .OoO. 900 after deducting what
an ordinary year would call for in

Anthracite Shipments in July.

The shipments OF anthracite Tor
July. as reported to the Anthracite
Bureau Of Information in Philadel-
phia, amounted to 5.162.760 gross
tons, as compared with 6.031,s37
tons in the preceding month, and
with 6.3sS.1o0 tons in July. 1920.
Tie falling off in shipments last
month is attributed principally to
the continued slack demand for pea
and steam sizes. which has caused

opments which may lie ahead the
fact that the rate was not reduced
earlier or was not reduced suffi-
ciently.
Real Factors Ignored.
As a matter of fact the real dan
ger here seems to be that of for
getting the lessons and experience
of the past few years. and to be
looking to such matters as the
bank rate to correct the position.
when there are other factors of
infinitely greater Importance which
need to be relied upon. Even at
the very height OF our trade ac-
tivities of more than a year ago
IL was perfectly evident that ac-
tivity was on an unhealthy basis,
imitation had raised prices and
wages to a level which made It
impossible to produce on terms
promising any permanent revival in
trade. While the application OF
dear money rates helped to bring
matters to a head, the real factors
operating were that on the one
hand high national expenditure
trenched upon funds required for
the the Industrial activities of tho
country. and. on the other hand, in
consequence OF the high prices of
commodities trade activities prom
ised to overtas the lending re-
sources of the banks. Then. of
course, on the top of what might
have been an ordinary trade reac-
tion came our great labor up-
heavals and the two formidable
coal strikes, with the result that
trade depression became acute and
the numbers OF the unemployed
reached record figures.
Dangers I'm Fresh imitation.
As a consequence of these stril<es
the national revenue has suffered
severely, and we have already wit
messed huge addition to the
floating debt instead of the con-
traction long since promised by the
government. We stand, in fact, In
some danger of simply repeating
the experience of a twelvemonth
ago In engineering a revival in
trade on a level of prices. incon-
sistent with its long duration. Our
recent spell Of acute depression
and adversely had at least the ef
feet of compelling the government
to consider the question of reduc-
ing national expenditure, while
even the wageearner was beginning
to perceive that there was sone-

for increased production. II, how

views. as printed in the Tribune, will

THE situation" Colonel Jackling

neither a question of weeks nor
years. It's not a question of weeks.
for there is no immediate prospects
of m early resumption of production:
but, on the other hand, IL will not be
a question OF years. for the produc-
tion Of copper is not keeping pace
with the consumption. The demand
will soon oyertake the supply. When
something like a reasonable demand
comes from foreign countries for
copper the situation will change for
the better. The demand for copper
Will follow the demand for other raw

Fulmer Says Business
Booms in California

Henry NJ. FuImer of the Steptoe
Grocery Company. in East Ely, who
last week returned from q business
trip to the coast. says that so far as
he observed business is good. partic-
ularly about San Francisco. where he
spent considerable time Everyone
, appeared to be prosperous and there
was plenty OF money in circulation.
OF course the berry and potato crops,
which have been large and harvested
at good prices for cash. may have had
a bearing on the ready-money situa-
ton. He also said that q lot of build
ing is going on and that construction
work of this kind was I'm evidence
wherever he went. At Pittsburg Cal,
about thirty-five miles from Oakland
and a little city of 5000 OF 1000
inhabitants, building was unusually
active, the work of this nature as es-
timated by Mr.. Fulmer running into
the thousands of dollars.
Mr.. Fulmer had a word Il say
about Calfornia's splendid system OF
highways and the extent of the au-
tomobile traffic in the state. He says
that electric buses are run on regular
schedule from Los Angeles 10 San
Francisco and other big towns in that
locality, and that the buses make as
good or better time over the five hun
dred miles as the railway trains, fire.
quently arriving ahead Of the trains.
These electric buses are run in re-
lays. passengers changing from one
bus to another. so that speed and

tended trip to New York and other
eastern cities on company business.
Besides New York, during his travels
he visited Chicago, Pittsburg, st.
Louis, Kansas City and Denver and
had a good opportunity to judge OF
business conditions in the east. The
mercantile business, says Mr.. Hart
ley, is quiet to the extreme, with but
little buying and the dealers marking
time. In New York the money sit

and there is lots Of building construc-

were all well p%atroniZed but
he had not trouble at any time in
