HARRY STRAUSS
FURNITURE CO.
Adjusts Its Differences With
Painters Union

The Harry Strauss Furniture Com
pany at Third and Ludlow streets
which had some little difference with
the sign writer's of the Painters
Union has come to a satisfactory
agreement with the organization. The
difference arose over the painting OF
some signs at the store by one not q
member of the Painters Union. The
signs were painted by d member OF
the Retail Clerks Union, and was
done through misunderstanding on
tie part of Mr.. Strauss. A handsome
big sign has just been completed or
the side of the building, the work be-
ing done by union sign writers. The
store is again on the fair list and is
entitled to patronage on the part OF
organized labor and it's friends.

SINGLE TAKERS
ing Get Ready For Big Meeting
in Nav

Washington.-A national confer
ence of single takers will be held in
this city on May 10 and IL to discuss
and take action on various matters
pertaining to that movement. The call
says:
"The pseudo prosperity of the war
period is being followed by real de-
preston. Wages and profits of un-
privileged business are being forced
down while ground rents and monopo-
ly prices remain high. Legislators
are making matters worse by putting
more taxes on industry and ignoring
the need of higher taxation of land
values. The situation is naturally
breeding discomfort which, unless in
telligently directed, must bring about
disaster"
The land question is Of interest to
labor, as is shown by the reconstruc-
which it is declared that "the private
tion program of the A. F. of L., in
graduted tax upon all usable lands
land is not conducive to the best in
terests of a democratic people. Legis-
lation should be enacted placing a
graduated tax upon all usuable lands
above the acreage which is cultivated
by the owner.
"This should include provisions
through which the tenant farmer or
others may purchase land upon the
lowest rate Of interest and most fav-
orable terms consistent with safety,
and SO safeguarded by governmental
supervision and regulation as to give
the fullest and freest opportunity for
the development of land-owning agri-
culturists.'

FEDERAL LAW
SPURNED
By Southern Railroad Man
ager

Birmingham, Ala-The high regard
for law, which big business processes,
is shown in its true colors in the case
of the Atlanta, Birmingham & At
lantic railroad, whose employees are
now on a strike against a wage redue-
tion in defiance Of the Cummins- Esch
law This law was enacted last year
on the urgent request cf big business
and its retainers, who insisted that
machinery be created that would make
railroad strikes improbable.
The first to break this law is the
railroads, and the retainers of big bus
mess are silent The most glaring
defiance of law is shown by the man
agement of the A., B. & A. The road
reduced wages without comforting
with employees OF referring the matter
to the railway labor board. The board
ordered that the law be complied with.
The president of the road was then
appointed receiver of the road by Fed
eIdI JuuSc olDlty, anu CIlS luI was
made effective, regardless of the
Cummins- Esch law
Val Fitzpatrick, representing the
striking employees, says that the APP
plication for receiver was made by
the Birmingham Trust and Savings
Company, which held a note against
the railroad, but the note was not
due al the time The unicnist states
that President Bugg, OF the railroad,
ties titieC; that he induced the bank to
start proceedings, and that he then
resigned as president of the road to
ccaliy for the off q of receiver, to
- ch Judge Sib!ey appointed him.
The receiver then ignored the Cum
mrs Esch law and arbitrarily cut
Wages
. is practiea V conceded, says
Val Fitzpatrick, "that the whole plan
of the bank and the officials of the
railroad was to accomplish what the
railroad has been unable to accom-
plish by legal methods"

MORE SPENT
For Luxuries Than All Edu-
cation

Washington.-Whe penny is
spent for education, dollars are ex-
pended on Injuries, according to P. P.
Claxton, United States commissioner
of education, who dispels the fiction
that this country's educational system
is costly.
Despite the low salaries of teach
ers, and the neager and inadequate
equipment of schools" says this edu
Gator, "many people believe the sup
port Of the public schools, element
ary, secondary and higher, to be our
chief burden The truth is public
education is not burden. It's cost
is almost negligible when compared
with other expenditures.
1t is shown that in 1918, the last
year for which complete reports have
been compiled, this country spent
1919, ,729,25S for elementary and
secondary public education, for normal
schools for the training of teachers

universities and professional schools,
whether supported by public taxation
or privately endowed.
Against this expenditure of less
than 81 ,0O0,0 100000 in 1918 for edu-
cation, Commissioner Claxton showed
that according to 1920 reports the
people spent for luxuries m that year
S22, 700, 100000, or more than % times
as much as they spent for education
only two years before, and $6,OOO,OOO
900, or 80 per cent more than the
United States expended for education
in it's entire history.
/ The amount paid for chewing gum
was two and one-half times the tota
expenditures for normal schools, anc
almost exactly the same as all state
and city appropriations for highe,
education.

The friends of Cliff Mayes, former
county superintendent, will be glad
to know he has good position, at a
better salary with the Federal High
way Commission. He is maintenance
superintendent over 10 counties,
known as the 4th road district, and
will be stationed at LAGRANGE, Ga.
He made Cobb county good superin-
tendent but worked under adverse
conditions in 1920, owing to so much
bridge work by high waters and
drainage bitches. His friends wish
him success and feel sure his past ex-
perlence in road work will qualify
him for this responsible position.
We are glad to see the Journal
giving the reports from the common

the education of our boys and girls.
From these will be selected the tim
Der to soon handle the governmental

ton. They must be educated for this

GREAT AUTO SHOW
OPENS IN ATLANTA
All Models of Oakland Sensible
Six will be Shown in Attractive
Exhibit.

The great Southern Automobile
Show will open in Atlanta, Ca, next
Saturday, March 9Th; and continue
thraugh the following Saturday.
Preparations for this event have been
under way for several weeks past,
and indications are that it will sur
pass any exhibition of the automo-
tive industry ever held in the South.
More than seventy-five different
makes of passenger cars, comprising
upward to $50 models, large number
of standard motor trucks, and an
elaborate display of automotive
equipment, will be on exhibition.
There will be as an added feature
of the show, musical programs by
two large bands, one of these being
the famous Canadian Kilties band.
The gorgeous decorative scheme of
the entire display is more pretentious
than anything ever before attempted
for an exposition of this nature in
| the Soulful is said that the decora-
lions for this event will prove we'll
worth seeing even if one were not in
terested in the automobile exhibits.
Several events of unusual interest
are to take place in Atlanta during
the same period as the auto show, and
thousands of visitors from all over
the South are expected. Every foot
of exhibit space in the huge audito-
rum has been disposed of, and many
other exhibitors would have partici-
pated in the show if there had been
more space available.
Mr.. L. H. Brown, the local Oakland
dealer, says that the display of Oak
land models at this show will be some
thing different from the average show
exhibit, and promises to be one of
the best displays of this popular line
ever shown. The exhibit is being put
on by the Southern Oakland Co., of
Atlanta, distributors for the Oakland
car, IN the Southeast.
Every automobile dealer, and
every one who owns or expects to own
motor car would profit by visiting
this show" says Mr.. Brown. From
the opening day until the close, there
will be much to interest, entertain
and instruct the general public, is
the opinion of Atlanta automobile
dealers.
