SEES SURE VICTORY
In UNITED STRIKE
John J.. Lewis Sees Victory in Union
of the Railway and Mine Workers
in Strike.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Cincinnati, O.-Three factors will
win victory for the miners and railroad
men in common strike, it was pre-
dicted today by John L. Lewis, presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers, who
will meet tomorrow night with rail
union chiefs to consider joint strike
action in the threatened rail walkout
OF approximately 100000 men.
Joining of forces of these organiza-
tions, Mr.. Lewis said, would first have
marked influence on labor generally;
second, would dislocate the transporta-
ton system of the nation, and third,
would affect the industrial fabric.
Considerably with the statement of
Mr.. Lewis, ten railroad union presi-
dents made public last night letter
to the labor board announcing their
intention of going through with the
strike in the event one is authorized
by the vote of the union members. B.
H. Jewell head of the railway employ
ees department, stated that the vote
being cast so far has been overwhelm-
ingly for a walkout.

Confidence in Farm
is Highly Important
Speaker Declares Business Recovery
Depends on Winning Back
Confidence of Buyers.
(By Associated Press,

Chlcago, Hive are dependent abb
soiutely upon the success of agricul-
ture, asserted President E. NJ. Healey,
OF Dubuque, Iowa, in his address to the
IWenty-third annual congress of the
National Retail Hardware association
at its opening session here today.
THE financial condition of the
farmer is Immediately reflected in run
ming our factories" President Healey
stated. "The farmer was the first to
feel the depression and he has been
hard hit. He would not buy anything
unless the price asked compared fav-
orably with prices he received for his
produce and then he bought only what
ne absolutely needed and could not get
along without. His farm papers ex-
planned how many bushels of corns or
wheat it took to buy everything from
suit Of clothes to square meal and
it developed buyers strike. But the
market for the farmers products has
recently been steadily approaching and
this spells better business
"What we need more than anything
else is to win back the confidence Of
the buying public, especially the farm
er. 1t has been proven that the aver
age net return for the farmer the past
year has been less than AGO on his in
vestment. To show the farmer he has
not been the only loser, cite the re-
suits of the joint agricultural COM
mission investigation which shows the
average profit of the retail hardware
dealer the past six years has been
about 57z per cent of the consumers
dollar and that the year 1921 showed
an average loss of 80 mills on each
consumer dollar. The report of this
commission will do more to clear up
the exact standing of the merchant
than any other agency and we should
take advantage of every opportunity
to tell the public just what profits we
have been taking, to show they have
not been exorbitant.
"In spite of warnings given by the
association many of our members
were caught in the 1921 slump with
heavy stocks Of high priced ,merchan-
disc, but with true sportsmanlike spirit
we took our losses with smile.
"When heard President Harding at
the recent meeting Of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States plead
for a commerce with consequence
and for honesty and honor in bust
ness I felt elated to think that these
were the ideals the National Retail
Hardware association has been es-
pecially advocating"

Health Commissioner Copeland Quotes
Facts Showing $500 Men and
Women Alive Over 100 Years.
(Ry Associated Pressl

Chicago, Hl.-There are $500 men
and women in the United States who
are past 100 years of age, said DR..
Royal S. Copeland, health commission
er for New York City, in an address
as chairman of the bureau of sanitary
science and public health of the Ameri-
can Institute of Homeopathy, at its
session here today. DIR. Copeland as
serted that by right living and right
thinking the average person should
live to be hundred, with "eye un-
dimmed and natural force undated"
but intimated that industrial hygiene
was essential before this could be
realized.
"Every thoughtful person must ap-
preciate that at least one-third OF all
adults are engaged in some industrial
pursuit" DR.. Copeland continued. "The
welfare of this great army must be
considered most carefully or the fabric
of society will be destroyed. To my
mind, industrial hygiene is, in many
respects the most important of all the
public health activities.

Reduction Here Fails to
Follow One Made for
Milwaukee.
MAY COME LATER ON
Local Officials Say They Have
Not Heard that Reduc-
ton Is Contemplated.

AT the Offices of the Wisconsin Gas
and Electric company today it was an
nounced that there had been no change
ordered IN the rates charged for gas
IN Kenosha regardless of the fact that
the Wisconsin Railroad Commission on
Monday handed down an order looping
something like ten per cent off the
rates charged in Milwaukee where
the gas utility is owned by practically
the same stockholders as control the
Kenosha utility.
I'VE have received no statement that
any reduction in the gas rates is con-
templated," said Acting Manager Part
ington at the offices Of the company
in Kenosha, this morning. 81 am not
in position to give out anything, but
have not heard Of any proposed
change in the rate"
The Kenosha rate is $1.45 for the
first ten thousand cubic feet and $1.25
for the consumption in excess of ten
thousand cubic feet and up to thirty
thousand cubic feet, a rate of 80 cents
thousand is quoted users of over
100000 cubic feet month. The rates
in Milwaukee as made by the commits
sion order Monday range from fifty to
eighty cents per thousand cubic feet,
according to the amount used. The
ly ten cents for each. one thousand Gu
bic feet for all classes of consumers.
Reduce Rates to Smaller Cities.
The commission also reduced the
rates to be charged to the smaller
cities of Wauwatosa and West Allis by
ten cents per thousand cubic feet The
rate for these two places is now placed
at sixty cents per thousand. This
price when compared with the Kenosha
rates indicates very large variation
in the cost Of supplying gas to Kenosha
and to West Allis and Wauwatoso.
No appeal has been made to the COM
mission for action to reduce the prices
charged in Kenosha. Some time ago
when the commission reduced the price
in Milwaukee the Wisconsin Gas and
Electric company promptly made re-
duction in the prices charged in Racine
and Kenosha, but if such reduction
is planned at this time no announce
ment Of it has been made.
1t is expected that at the next
meeting of the city council some formal
steps will be taken to lay the matter of
Kenosha rates before the commission
with view of securing reduction.
Say Conditions Are Different.
1t is declared by officials of the COM
pany that conditions surrounding the
Kenosha and Milwaukee business are
vastly different and. this is admitted
by the officials of the city. However,
it is expected that the local officials
will demand that conditions have
changed to such an extent as to make
the production of gas in Kenosha for
Kenosha much cheaper than under the
old regime. The cut made by the COM
mission means an annual saving of
more than 100000 to the users of gas
in Milwaukee. Under the same ratio
it should be possible to cut the cost in
Kenosha about $4,000 year.
