WILL SEEK NEW
LOCATION + D R
KNITTING PLANT
New Industries Committee Of
Chamber Of Commerce
will Assist

The New Industries committee of
the Chamber of Commerce will do all
in its power in the next ten days to
find another location for the Mount
Vernon branch factory of the Rich
Sampliner Knitting Mills Company of
Cleveland.
President f. w. Kahrl reported to
the board of directors, last evening,
for the committee. He stated that he
believed that the membership of the
chamber as well as the citizenship of
the city hardly realized what this fac
tory meant to the city. He read the
following letter from Mr.. w. r. Wood
worth of the Cleveland office which
was dated, January II, 1921:
"Your letter of January IA and sum-
mons to appear in court received. We
have considered your communication
and the writer will be in Mount Yer
non in week or ten days. In the
meantime you go ahead and look into
tuc tlluLtcI vi uuUtueT SILe.
"We are going to need room for a
real factory. You men in Mount Yer.
non have not really understood the
significance of our small beginning.
We have another shipment of ma.
chimes Grated, which we will begin
shipping within two weeks.
"All this we have been able to do
in the face OF the present market con.
dtions, which you gentlemen have full.
ly realized. All this also has been at
loss, a loss which does not show on
the surface.
1--WE are positive no court of equity
in the United States would render
judgment against us. We are willing
however to cooperate and look ut 9th.
er sites, but do not intend to surren
der any of our rights, and we certain
ly expect the active and actual sup
port of every member of the Cham
Der of Commerce"
Owing to the great expense of keep
ing the new Chamber of Commerce
hall open at night, the board of di
rectors thought that chamber should
not be rented to the several city or
ganizations, including the G. A. r..
Womans Relief Corps, and many 9th
ers, at the nominal rent of $25 per or
ganization per year. 1t was ,also
agreed that this plan would occupy
too many evenings, and the organiza
tion would have no place to hold its
own special gatherings. II the rooms
are ultimately rented to the petition
ing city organizations, 1t was the
thought of the directors last evening
that each one should pay for the ex
pense of light and heat, and part
OF the yearly janitor expense.

AeALrA COURSE roR WORKERS

"
The various branches of the Red
Cross continually devise new ways
for being useful. AS part of its
peace activities one such branch' has
embarked upon special health pro.
gram among industrial workers. Free
lessons in hygiene. the care and pre-.
vention of illness, will be given to
those In employment. Since the
worker will inevitably carry his new
found knowledge hope, the import
ance of the work is evident.
Under the proposed plan any indus
trial concern which so desires can
have classes in first aid and health
preservation. A monthly health bul
letin Is issued, and will be sent for
publication to employees magazines
and foreign language newspapers and
given public health nurses to di3trib
ute or study. Care of the feet, prop
er postures, how to keep from catch
ing cold and similar practical sub
Jets are handled simply.
This is work for which there i
scope in most communities. While
some Industrial concerns provide med
ical care and first aid for their EN-
plOyes, many do not, and still fewer
do any instructing along these lines
The result is that the great majorit
of workers suffer from the inroad'
Of preventable ills upon body ant
purse. The stoppage of this physica
and financial drain is a great public
service.
