MILLIONS POPP|ES
WORN MEMORIAL DAY
FIVE MILLIONS HAVE ARRIVED
FROM FRANCE TO BE TOKEN
OF NATIONS SORROW.

Five million peoples, replicas of the
red flowers that blow in Flanders
fields" have arrived in America to
be worn by Americans on Memorial
Day in commemoration Of the fallen
heroes of the late war. The flowers,
most of which were made by French
war orphans, will be sent by the Amer,
ican-Ffanco Children's League, On
Madison Square Avenue, New York
City, to many patriotic societies
throughout the country for distribu
tion on, Memorial Day.
The American Franco Childrens
League, which is the only official
American branch of La Ligue Ameri
eaine Franchise des Enfants, of Paris,
has been Endorsed by the National In
formation Bureau Nine. Millerand,
wife Of the president of the French re.
public, is president of the French
league and the Rev. DR.. Herbert Ship
man, prominentNew York clergyman,
of the American branch. Col. r. II.
Tyndall national treasurer of the
American. Legion, is also national
treasurer of the league.
The proceeds of the poppy sales will
go to the league for the amelioration
of conditions among children in the
war-torn areas, innocent victims OF
the war. The league is clearing
house for relief work among French
children and numbers among its mem
bers men and women prominent in
the philanthropic activities of both ma
tions.
The Flanders poppy has been Sc
lected as the memorial, flower because
it has been said by SO many to rep
resent the soul of the dead" 1t was
immortalized in verse by John Nc
Crae Its adoption as the Memorial
Day flower will serve a three-fold pur
pose-the commemorative of the dead,
the relief of children in France, and
the tightening of the bonds of friend
ship between France and America.

it the Legion will be gratified, the
wearing of the uniform is matter
solely for the individual to decide. But
the committee does expect every ex-
service man in the county to attend
the exercises and pay this tribute to
his fallen comrades. But the COM
mittee would repeat that it is entire
~ matter with the service men as to
whether or not they wear the uniform.
They will be just as welcome without
it as with it. but the committee fees
that the presence of those in uniform
who can come thus attired will of it.
self be a fine mark of respect to the
memory of the dead. All who wear
their uniforms are requested to leave
off all insignias of rank since in the
American Legion no rank is known.

FORD PRODUCING !"
1900 CARS PER DAY.
PRESENT PRODUCTION GREATER
THAN FOR SAME PERIOD
LAST YEAR.

Ford is building cars at full speed.
And, according to an official statement
from the factory at Detroit, the de-
Fmand for Ford cars and trucks still
exceeds the output, despite the fact
that a new high level Of production
has been reached. ''' .aF y'a0nJ y.
By the first of May the figures rep
resenting daily production were In the
neighborhood of 1000 day, so the
May schedule was set at 101 ,125 ears
and trucks, not including the output
OF the Ford Canadian plant or any OF
the foreign assembly plants. The out
put mounted daily, May 18th brought
forth 1902 cars, the greatest number
that have been produced tffs year In
one day. Since the month has rs
working days, present indications,
point to new high record.
A comparison of Ford production
figures for 1920 and 1921 discloses the
fact that for April, 1921, the output
was greater by 34,5l4 cars than for the
corresponding month year ago. The
output for May, 1921, will probably
'overshadow May, 1920, by between l5.1
900 and 10000 cars and trucks. ''4s
approximately $4,000 men are at
work in the Detroit plant offthe Ford
Motor Company. The factory is OPP
Grating on full time, six days a week
and three shifts a day.

probably due more to the fact that

LABOR SCORES
VICTORY IN CASE
Railroad Labor Board Refuses
to Grant Petition Of Pullman
Company for an Open Shop.

CHICAGO-The Pullman Co. lost
its open shop fight before the rail
road labor board Tuesday when the
board upheld the contention of union
leaders that the company had not
obeyed "the letter and spirit" Of
the transportation act, when it con-
ferred with its employees in mass
meetings.. The board threw out the
company's petition for a cut wages
and instructed it to go back and
meet the "duly elected representa-
tives" of the employees.
Shop craft and clerks in the Pull
man works are involved. The boards
decision will delay action on re-
duction in wages several weeks.
Under the transportation act the
company must meet. the union lead
ers, and in the event they fail to
reach a decision, file petition be-
fore the board and ask for a new
hearing.
The controversy between the Pull
man company and the unions is a
continuation Of labor difficulties, dat
ing back several years, over the
"open shop" The company has
declined to deal with union officers
in matters affecting all employees.
The company takes the position that
employees not members of the unions
are not represented by the labor or
carnations.
