Bishop Williams said he investi

He said press associations have dis.

of success would be greater If they
attempt to suppress a tidal wave.

EMPLOYERS
ABR0GATE
AGREEMENT

Printing trades unions are prepar-
ing to swing this industry into the "A
hour week column. and May l next
is the date set for the Saturday half
holiday in the commercial and peri.
odical branches of the North Ameri-
can printing industry.
The unions involved are the interna-
tional organizations of printers, press
men. bookbinders and sterotypers
These, together with a large section
of employers formed the International
Joint conference council, in March,
1919. Strong declarations in favor of
conciliatory methods and agreements
were made by both parties. and in
the following April the council recon-
mended that both parties submit the
question of the 44-hour week, effective
May 1, 1921. to their respective bodies.
The 44-hour week was adopted by the
members of all affiliated organizations
and at a meeting of the council held
in Atlanta last December it was de-
clared:
"That this joint conference council
considers all members Of its constltu-
ent bodies are morally bound to adopt
and put into effect the 44-hour week
on May 1, 1921"
Despite these repeated declarations
for the shorter work week, and har-
mony in the industry, some employers
are now attempting to evade their re-
sponsibility and their pledged word.
In a recent conference in Cincinnati
employers formed the 'eight-hour
league" and are using the same ar

to a mayor in nearby town, the air
service says: Attention is invited to
the fact that congress has not appro-
priated any money for the purchase
of property for this purpose; and
while, in some isolated cases, the air
service may lease a field at a nominal

points made against Newberry-the
amount Of money expended, the fall
ure to itemize the account Of expenses,
the obvious violation of the state law,
the to decision of the supreme
court which saved Newberry from a
prison sentence, Newberry's failure
to testify in his own behalf. etc.
Among other things. Senator Pom

ing to Newberry, Why you were not

is PETROLEUM PROS
PERITY GENUINE?

Many persons believe that the pres
ent prosperity Of the petroleum indus
try is fictitious and that the rise in
crude oil prices has resulted from
manipulation.
Are they right2
"Probbaly they are not" says Paul
clay. in Forbes Magazine N. y. who
presents facts and figures to bear out
ibis opinion.
THE layman naturally argues that
since everything else has come down
there Is no reason why petroleum
should not also come down. His feel
ing in the matter is that if s1.2s was
a normal price for crude oil in the
boom year Of 1913, $500 hardly can be
a normal price in these times or de-
preston. Possibly this figure Is a little
high, and certainly If the rise contin-
|ues we may soon call It initiation; but
it is equally certain that crude oil
should now and hereafter rule much
above pre-war prices.
1T should do so for the double rea-
son that the cost Of production is far
higher than it was then. and that the
petroleum industry has been revolu-
tionized by the sensational increase
IN the use of automobiles. OF course,
the latter is the more important Of the
two factors. There are now in the
United States about 100000 automo-
piles and truess. and they are COM

400 gallons each yearly; so that their

the present gasoline consumption by
automobiles alone Is equivalent to al

value Of all petroleum products IN

Linooln's Library List.
After reading lists of books we
moderns enjoy, it's interesting to
glance back at those which Lincoln
read most assiduously in his youth, as
noted by DR.. William e. Barton in
his book, 1.-THE Soul Of Abraham Lin
coin" They are: the Bible, Pilgrims
Progress, Aesop's Fables, Robinson
Crusoe and Weem's Life Of Washing
ton" In the light Of Lincoln's life,
no young persons education is com
plete until he has touched minds with
these. In this connection it is worth
while to note the interest aroused in
Aesop's Fables since their translation
to the movie screen. Paul Terry's
cartoons Of "Aesop's Film Fables" are
being shown in schools as well as in
theatres. This recognition Of the edu-
cational value of Aesops Fables at
tests to Lincolns wisdom in number

umes.
