DECISION OF
STATE

Memorials erected to Idaho men
who lost their lives in the World war
do not have to be of uniform design
when erected in any of the counties
of the state, is the opinion rendered
by Roy L. Black, attorney general, to
Governor Davis who referred to him
communications asking information
regarding the law affecting erection
OF these monuments.
Several communications have been
addressed to state house officials con-
corning these changes and the attor-
ney generals opinion makes clear any
ambiguity. Under the law passed at
the 1919 session the governor was to
appoint three persons who were to
decide upon and adopt uniform me-
mortal to be erected in each county
of the state, under certain conditions
An appropriation Of $4,000 was made
and each county was to get $1,000 from
the state when a similar amount had
been raised by the county.
House bill No. Ill, 1921 session, does
away with the commission created
two years previously and instead
makes the local commandery of the
American. Legion and the heads of
other local established and recognized
bodies of World War veterans and the
board of county commissioners of each
county the memorial commission. The
new law vests in this commission the
power to determine the style. charac-
ter and design Of the memorial to be
erected in each county, and does away
with the requirement that the memoir
ials must be uniform in all counties.
The new law did not repeal the
$4,000 appropriation and, regarding
the money, the attorney generals
opinion reads as follows:
1.-THE law makes the state money
available whenever there shall have
been certified to the state auditor by
the county commissioners that the
county commissioners have appropri-
ated at least $1,000 and that suitable
site has been provided. 1t further
gives all counties four years to avail
themselves of the funds provided, be-
ing the $4,000 previously appropri-
ated. or the unexpended balance
thereof"
On the question as to whether or
not the state can hold the sculptors to
their contract for furnishing this me-
mortal only to Idaho, the attorney
general writes: ut Is my opinion that
when the commission is abolished and
the counties are allowed to re-deter-
mine the matter, the contract is
broken, so that they might use the

.REALA1ORS PLANNING
HONEST JOBS"
FOR IDLE men

The subject of caring for the un-
employed of the city was taken up
by meeting of the Pueblo Real Els
tate exchange, held yesterday at the
Commerce club. Realtors stated that
odd jobs of cleaning up vacant lots.
and repairing property about tho city
had been given out to out-of-worlt
men OF their acquaintance. and that
considerable activity had been ere
ated in this manner. The cleaning
up process, it was stated, has only
begun, and there will be more work
for the unemployed before the ad-
vent OF spring. The realtors are
quite in accord with the plea of city
health authorities for n clean Pueblo,
since the tidy appearance of houses,
and lots listed for sale adds greatly
to their appearance when viewed by
prospective purchasers and possible
residents in Pueblo.

Chicago, Ill. Feb. 1T.--Labor Thurs
day appeared before the railroad labor
board in an effort to check the rail-
ways executives drive against nation
al agreements. This drive B. NJ. Jewell
chairman OF the employees committee,
declared was intended to obscure the
fundamental issues at stake. as en-
ployes have declared were tho open
shop movement and an attempt to
crush organized labor. Mr., Jewell re-
qucsted that the employees be allowed
until March IA to complete their re-
buttal to the railroads. He also pro-
posed that the case be thrown out and
that the points be taken up in confer
ence between the carriers and the en-
ploycs.
Protest Immediately was ordered by
Z. r. Whittier OF the carriers commit
tee against delay and to proposals of
further conferences. He declared that
the question the board faced was mere
ly whether the national agreements
should be continued. Frank P. Walsh
counsel for the brotherhoods. 1ikened
the principles being laid down by the
| board to those of the supreme court
in its carly history. He said that the
utterances and acts of railway cxecu-
tives indicated that II not restrained.
they would render tho transportation
act emasculated and abortivc. this
board will be destroyed, in so far as its
efficient functioning is concerned. and
we shall have endless turmoil and
instability in the railroad industry. He
declared that II the carriers did not
comply with the law. the employees
would inform the public as to the
real situation" in an attempt to pre-
vent congress from enacting law for
financial relief OF the railroads.
The carriers are attempting to dip
their hands into the United States
treasury and extract $3.50, 100000 which

The railroads could not accept the

which would finally lead to the de-
struction of their own house." and re-
