BIG DEMAND FOR FARM LABOR
Secretary of labor Davis Believes
Country Has Come Out of
Depression.

Washington, May 8,-EmpIoyment
conditions in the United States Demon
strate that there is widespread sndus-
trial awakening extending from coast
to coast" Secretary Davis of the labor
department declares, commenting up
on investigation and reports made by
the federal employment service. AL
though there are few dark spots in
which considerable unemployment is
yet reported, Mr.. Davis adds, the en-
tire country may be said to have come
out of the depression. ''The farm sit
uation is decidedly encouraging" Mr..
Davis says. "The demand for farm
help from all sections of the country
is Indicative of the optimistic attitude
of the farmer. AS there are 6,44S,OO0
farms in the country, they will alb
sorb a tremendous amount of labor"

FIRE AT u. S. TREASURY
Second Blaze in Federal Building
at Washington.
Damage Estimated at SIS, ooo-Presi,
dent and Mrs. Harding Watch
Flames From White House.

Washington, May 4.-For the Sec
ond time in three months iremen
battled with a stubborn fire on
the roof of the Treasury department
which for a time assumed menacing
proportions as the flames, burning
through long superstructure, leaped
high in the air and cast a threaten
ing glow on the White House itself,
while sparks waited across to its sur
rounding terrace.
When discovered about 1 40 a. m.
the flames already had gained consid-
cradle Roadway AMI were soaring to
a height Of thirty or forty feet when
fire apparatus, responding to FIVE
alarms, arrived at the scene.
Awakened by White House attend
ants, President and Mrs. Harding
dressed and from a window watched
the firemen battle the flames in the
nearby structure.
Unofficial estimates place the DAM
age at not more than $4,000.
Firemen had been on the scene only
few minutes when a Gordon of about
fifty marines, hastily recruited from a
number on liberty here from the
Quantico (Va.) barracks, was thrown
around the building.

BONUS COLLAPSE
SEEMS CERTAIN
Conference at the White House
Fails to "Raise the
Money"
HARDING'S VIEW UNCHANGED
President Tells Committee of Sena-
tors Their Measure "lsn't Much
of a Bonus BlIl"-No Chance
for a Sales Tax.

Washington, May 9.-Hopes of re-
ronciling differences between congress
and the administration over soldiers
bonus legislation collapsed, following
q conference at the White House be-
tween President Harding and senate
leaders,
The finance committee, it is under
stood, is now giving serious considera-
ton to a suggestion that the measure
be shelved until July, at which time
it may be possible to ascertain
definitely how far interest payments
on the foreign debt may be relied
upon to meet the cost of the bonus.
Those who attended the conference
at the White House were Senator's
Lodge (Mass.), Republican leader;
McCumber IN. d., chairman of the
finance committee; Watson (Ind),
and Curtis (Kan.).
The conference began with an ex-
PLANTATION of the amendments made to
the house bill by the finance commit
tee. Senator McCumber outlined the
amendments, all of minor nature.
ress only a short time when the Pres
ident- confronted the committee with
the query: "Where are you going to
get the money!"
Committee members pointed out
that the cost of the bonus during the
next year would be only $73,000000,
which they thought could be easily
met by savings in governmental ex-
penditures. They further explained
that the peak of the cost would not
be reached until 1926, when the cost
for the year will be something over
$300,0O0O00.
The President is reported to have
remarked that ''this isn't much of a
bonus BILL" referring to the failure to
find a definite means to raise the
money. He asked the senators if they
had considered a sales tax to defray
the bonus cost. They answered that
there was no hope of it's adoption by
congress.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1922-05-12

Human nature has many queer
twists, but the one freak of nature we
never could fathom is the morbid old
gossip who attends all funerals SO she
can talk about how the mourners car
ried on.
The employer is not the only one
who kicks about the clock watchers.
Wives get just as indignant at the
way their husbands keep their eyes
glued on the clocks on girls hosiery.
Though a man who gets up in the
world may look down upon his friends,
he just cannot see them.
The circus clowns, after lamping the
maps of some of the girls they pass
on the streets, must feel they are pix
ers when it comes to face painting
and need to go out and get reputa-
ton.
Profanity never seems quite so vul-
gar as when a woman uses it. We do
not expect men to live up to their
high ideals, but it always makes us
shudder to see woman slip off the
pedestal on which we have placed her.
Even the poorest people do not care
rap about getting the necessities OF
life. We all want the luxuries.

after a rescue party had been sent
out to her aid from the legation. All
