!overnment also bought 2O, 900 pounds
f copper from this contractor for 391k
cents pound and sold it back to him
lat Ill cents. Extravaganza attendant
LON the building Of the powder plant
at Nitro, West Virginia, was discover
/ ed by the Graham committee, together
with evidence tending to explain why
the contract for building this plant,
| led to q. I. Du Pont de Nemours &
Company, was summarily cancslled.
Some pre-c contract activities of Daniel
Gauffel, agent ofthe Dupont Engine
ering Company, a subsidiary Of the
power concern, the Graham committee
reported .tinctured with fraud. The
contract was let after its cancellation,
to the Thompson-St -Starrett Company,
this company receiving a fee of $780,
600, plus very heavy" engineering,
field, administration and other charges.
According to the Graham committee
findings, "Men were empolyed at, fan
,ciful and exhorbitant wages. Boys
received carpenters wages. Men were
paid to carry refuse from one part of
the work to another and back again.
Lumber was destroyed by the whole
sale. Great masses of hardware were
destroyed willfully. Immense guam
titles of California redwood pipe was
put under ground to convey water. The
Western engineer who recommended
its use got 100000 for his advice"
There was "palpable fraud" in the
settlement of the claim of the Stan
dard Steel Car Company Of Chicago,
the Graham Committee charged, by
which the company got $3,000,000
and it charged further that the $780,
600 claims board settlement with the
Jones & Laughlin Steel Company was
fraudulent per-se." The article brings
forward many others, and concludes.
"The list could be continued greatly
but this would add little to what is,
apparent, namely, that when Uncle
Sam went into the market to buy what
he required to win the organized in
dustries Of the country saw him COM
ing from a long way off. When our
Uuncle Sam met these industries there
was enacted a scene which recalls the
story of "Littae Red Reding Hood.

year. Among other things this paper
charges the League as being unpatri-
otic during the war, as being Social
istic"' and of various other crimes and
misdemeanors. Every word of the
above article spells approval of the
action of the Kansas mob. Now II. the
last issue of the Pathfinder is a long
article on the. Septe tenlber primaries in
the various states. They mention all
of the successful nominees, tell Of their

the nomination Of Senator Lodge Of

Labor Conditions
On Coast Better
Says ]. A. Kelly

SAN FRANCISCO. March 22.--tA
| p. .)-Emploment conditions on the
Pacific Coast durifg February show
| ed a slight general Improvement ovel
the previous month, according TO tne
report Of J. A. Kelly, acting district
director of the employment division
/ OF the United States Department OF
Labor, made public here today
Building is especially active, ~
spite Of adverse weather conditions
lin many districts, and as q result
lumber shows mared Improvement.
On the other hand, mining, the man
|ufacture OF food stuffs and textiles
and shipbuilding are still below nor
NAL.
Mr.. Kelly's report, covering the
states Of Washington, Oregon and
California, follows:
/ Washington Conditions how
gradual improvement with coming OF
spring. Large municipal improve
nents and state road work, with calls
from the wheat district should absorb
a majority of those now idle. Grays
Harbor section reports logging and
lnmber activities full capacity with
shortage of common labor at some
points. Optimism prevails and much
better conditions are looked for in
the next three months. Considerable
activity manifests in Alaska fishing.
Oregon--Housing situation well In
hand. At the conclusion of the rainy
season much building is contemplat-
ed. The berry crop will be good.
Lumber mills and logging camps es-
pecially active. Number of unem-
ployed becoming less. Fishing and
canning will start about May l.,
with good prospects Flour mills re-
port operating below capacity. and
two report temporary shutdown.
California Employment conditi-
ons show a slight improvement over
last month, despite weather conditi-
ons. which have retarded early de-
mands for farm workers. Severe
weather conditions have likewise in
terfered to a degree with building,
although this industry is still very
active. and Indications point to a
greater impetus as soon as the wea-i
ther permits. Saw mills and log
ging operating about 50 percent
