OKEH WAGE CUTS
Judge Lands, as Arbitrator In
Chicago Strike, Decides.
Fifty Thousand Men To Be
Back on Jobs.

Chicago, Sept. Federal Judge
K. NJ. Lands. acting arbitrator in the
building trades dispute, today APP
proved slashing cuts in wages in his
arbitration decision. The new scale
ranges downward from $1.25 an hour.
It is believed fifty thousand men will
return to work under his decision
Stone carvers top the scale at $1.25
an hour. with bricklayers, engineers,
electricians and tile layers getting
$1.10. Lathers and roofers get 81
an hour and all others ranged down to
$50 week for teamsters.
Big Contracts Were Held.
Contracts for more than SIC, 200, 900
in new construction were awaiting his
decision. The. Judge reviewed condi-
lions which had led to his arbitration.
The general disposition is to keep
away from building construction as a
thing diseased he said. "The wise
dollar preferred most any other form
of activity. This applied to the whole
range of the industry. from the cot
tage to the skyscraper. This attitude
brought virtual famine in housing
conditions and kept thousands out of
work who were willing to work"
Urges Unions to Fight.
The jurist also urged the unions
which had entered the agreement to
establish a virtual boycott" against
other unions which refused to accept
arbitration.
Don't let these other unions get
the benefit of your actions" he ad-
vised
working agreement drawn up by
the judge will be effective until May
81, 1922. A condition of the agree
ment is that Judge Lands must draw
up new wage scale prior to that day

grades only. had 119 boys and girls
enrolled. Only 81 students attended
this school during the last term. The
vocational school is for the benefit
of those pupils who wish to specialize
in manual training and domestic art.
The curriculum is arranged so that the
student receives three-fifths of his
training in academic subjects and the
other two-fifths in manual train
ing and mechanical trades.
The old idea that the average boy
and girl breads the opening of school
and its accompanying tasks seems to
be disproved by the cheerfulneSs with
which the modern school boy and girl
returns to the school room and the
study hall. Smiling faces are to be
seen everywhere in the halls of the
high school and on the Fairgrounds of
the elementary schools. There seems
to be a general feeling of content and
joy at being once more in the old
familiar haunts. School books are
busted off. specs are adjusted and all
preparations are made for long win
ter of profitable study.

Unseasonably warm weather pre-

days of this week, tho temperatures
were not Quite as high as the previous

the eastern third and along the Okla

Comanche. i
The greater part of the corn crop is
too far along to be injured by lack of
moisture at this time, tho perhaps
some of it may be prematurely rip
ened and the grain shriveled, but late
corn has felt its effects badly, eSpec-
tally in the western counties. In the
central part of the state, where the
droutn has been especially severe.
fully three-fourths of the corn that
will be cut is already in the shock or
silo. In the western third from 10 to
so per cent has been cut, In ithe
eastern counties, where corn was not
injured by dry weather. cutting Is just
beginning.
Grain sorghums are standing the
drouth well, except in the western
counties, where they are beginning to
dry up. Pastures are also showing the
effects of the dry weather, especially
in the central and western counties,
and the prospects for another cutting
of alfalfa are poor, except on bottom
land.
Sowing wheat, whiIo under way in
the western third, is not making much
progress on account of the ground be-
ing SO dry. Farmers as a rule are
busy disking ground, putting UP feed
corn pulling is in full swing in the
