GOMPERS SEES DANGER
IN MEN OUT OF WORK

At a session of the executive u
ell of the American Federation of
Labor at Atlantic City, n. j., last
Monday, President Samuel Gompers
declared that the present unemploy-
ment situation Is an economical
crime Expressing his belief that
wage reductions will not relieve the
situation, but that such action will
further curtail the domestic purchas-
ing power and more factories will
close because the people Will not have
the money TO buy their products, the
veteran labor chief said:
THE present depression will be-
come even more acute and the reduc-
tons. IL they can be forced upon us,
will not only prove a boomerang. hut
q menace to Il economic, financial
and political structures.
In all this talk about readiust-
ment and reconstruction why Is II
that the pressure is always brought
to bear upon those whose standards
of life and everyday existence would
be demoralized, and why this drive to
reduce their wages first? The rank
and file cannot understand how read
lustment and reconstruction car
mean only reductions of their wages
Il have been asked who among the
capitalists has suggested a reduction
IN the rate of interest on a loan OF {
reduction Of profits, or even a stimuli
taneous reduction OF wages ant
profits.
THE cost of living has not com,
down. Instead. with profiteering un
checked and unrestrained, 1t Is goinj
up. especially rents. Ninety per cen
OF the homes in the United State
were built before the war. but the OK
o%rbitant rents gouged out of the ten
ants by the profteering and unscrup
ulous landlords is blamed on the higl
cost OF labor during the war"
The views of President Gomper
are shared by the Private Soldier
and Sailors Legion. which has petit
toned congress to investigate tn
present unemployment situation. Tn
petition declares there are stronI
reasons for believing that widespread,
unemployment is largely the result
or deliberate planning and is not tn

FORMER ELY PRIEST
DEAD IN SALT LAKE

Gloom was cast over the entire
community when word was received
here of the sad death of Rev. Michael
J O'Reardon, which occurred at Holy
Cross hospital in Salt Lake City at
Gao the morning of August Is.
Father O'Reardon was pastor of
Sacred Heart church in Ely for three
years and left this district in March.
1919, going east and later in the
same year ~journeying to his old home
in Ireland in the hope that the change
and a visit with his parents, to whom
he was devoutly attached, might BEN
eft his health, which at that time
had become the subject of some alarm
among his legion of friends. Upon
his return from his native land he re-
NAMED in Salt Lake and was able
to follow the work of his holy calling
until a few weeks ago. when il be-
came evident to his physician and
friends that the end was near. Death
was due to a complication of diseases,
and while all known to medical skill
was resorted to and he was constantly
surrounded by loving friends who
left nothing undone within human
power God called the beloved priest
TO his greater reward.
Father O'Reardon was a native of
Charciyeen, County Merry, ireland,
where he was born thirty-6ye years
ago. He received his early education
in his native land and after leaving
All Hallows college in Dublin he came
to this country and finished his ed
ucation in Menlo Park, California.
He was the first priest to be ordained
in the Cathedral of the Madelaine in
Salt Lake City. His ordination took
place nine years ago and early in the
year 1915 he was placed in charge
of Sacred Heart parish in Ely, which
likewise carried with 1t the spiritual
guidance of the parishes of McGill
and Ruth.
During his stay here Father
O'Reardon became known not only as
a devout priest but a mar of sterlins
worth and a heart of gold. He en-.
deared himself to men, women anc
children. regardless of creed, and a.
the news OF his sad death spread
heads were bowed down as fervenI
prayers were offered up for the happy
repose of his soul.
Father O'Reardon is survived b,
his aged father and mother, FIVE sis
tiers and three brothers, all of whom
reside in Charclveen. An uncle, Mau
rice Bowler of Chicago, was at Faith
er O'Reardon's bedside when he died
While hearts bleed with sympath,
for the griefstricken parents, sister
and brothers in the irredeemable los
which they have sustained and tn,
cutting down OF n of Gods chosen
representatives in the springtime o
life leaves a gap which cannot wei
be filed. some consolation Is foun,
in the fact that after a holy life II
Gods vineyard Father O'Reardon hai
been called to eternal rest and to en-
Joy the fruit of a life we'll spent.

AS MEDICINE
DIES IN CONGRESS.

Congress adjourned Wednesday,
August "a, for one month. Not only
will the members of congress and the
senate have u breathing spell, but
the people oil the nation at large will
have a respite from the wrangling
and iangling that has been going on
at Washington during the summer.
The adjournment was delayed for
weeks by the senseless fight waged
over whether or not beer may be
legalized as a medicine, and the tac-
tics of the Anti-Saloon League and
the paid reformers and lobbyists in
the interest of prohibition have
aroused the wrath of the nation s
lawmakers to a point that has endan-
gered the entire scheme of the eight
zenith amendment. whereby the United
States is classed as a dry nation.
The fight ended in the defeat OF the
"drys' and the Campbell-Willis anti
beer bill was tossed into the legisla-
tive scrap heap, where 1t will prob
ably remain for n long time, as when
congress again some mat
ters of real Importance are to be con
sidered. it is hoped. Meantime doe
tors MAJ continue to prescribe ar
senic, stryehnine. whisky and other
poisons. but may lot in their iudg-
ment prescribe lager beer.
In the closing hours of the session
The S4S.50o.e0o shipping board de-
feiencv bill and the billion dollar
export credits bill were finally
enacted into law. After congress re-
to its duties September 81 II is
expected that the tax and tariff bills,
The railroad funding bill and the bill

he right of way. and no one will
hazard a prediction as TO when the
snti-heer hill will again be brought
up.

Teachers Institutes
to Be Held in October

w. J. Hunting. superintendent OF
public instruction. announces that
teachers Institutes will In all prob
ability be held in the FIVE supervision
districts OF the state in October this
year. The decision was reached after
consideration of the matter by the
deputies during a conference with
MIR. Hunting.
Reimbursement of boundaries of
both school districts and the areas
over which deputies have Jurisdiction
have also come in for a share of dis
eussion. says the Carson City News.
II is sought to overcome difficulties
due to the fact that parts Of school
districts may have absolutely nothing
In common, due to natural barriers,
such as mountains, lack of roads, etc.
The same is true with respect to
boundaries Of the supervision dis
tricts. The officers are figuring ON
possible establishments which will lie
advantageous to both school patrons
and supervising officers.

proposed revision OF the high school
course of study and plan submitting

RESIDENTS SCATTERED
BY BURNING OF TAR

Burning tar near the Richmar
apartments WAS The cause of an alarm
Of fire early Wednesday afternoon.
The thick, black smoke rolling in
clouds above The housetops, followed
by the wailing tocsin from the siren
on the city hall aud the hustling of
the fire apparatus 10 the scene. cleo
trified the populaee with commingled
feelings of scareful and pleasureable
excitement. But the incident was
soon closed, as tho only thing a-flre
was the tar which vas being heated
for use on he Richmar roof by Paint
er Mahoney. the LIQUID boiling over
into the blaze under the big kettle,
as fat sometimes boils over n ig-
mites on the stove in the process OF
frying doughnuts.
1t appears that one of the Richmar
tenants had become nervous from the
frequent blazing up OF the tar. II
sensing an element of danger to sur
rounding property finally decided TO
call out the fire department. which
successfully and quickly aecom-
plished, as the Ely fire department
has a way OF getting there instanter
when the summons comes.
Following the alarm and the turn
ing out of the fire boys. Chief Matthias
decided that in the interest of econ
omy as well as safety 1t would be
just as we'll If the threatening tarpot
was removed to some other location,
and the gave orders to that effect,
which were readily complied with by
Mr.. Mahoney. While the fire chief
did not n real danger in this
instance. anything that tends TO a
needless fire alarm should be taken
care of. from the viewpoint OF the
expense involved to the taxpayers.
