BUSINESS MEN
PLAN TOASS|ST
SHIP WORKERS
viii Ask congEess to Have Ma
rine Repairs Made In
Navy Yard.

Keen interest I'm the 100000 cut
in the city's weekly payroll prousnt
by the sudden reduction Of forces In
the Navy Yard, was being shown by
business men throughout the city
today. Civic organizations are
already rallying to the cause OF the
men in an effort to devise some
plan by which Government work IN
Government shops can bring con-
tinued employment to the released
workers.
Business men were having their
own realization of the situation
more deeply impressed upon them
by representatives OF the local
branch Of the international Associa-
ton Of Machinists. of which most
OF those placed on "furlough" are
members.
lions last night unanimous support
was given the amendment intro
duced In the Senate yesterday by
Senator Lodge providing for the
curtailment Of contracts for ship re-
pair work with private firms, when
the work can be done at Government
yards. This Congressional move
was taken to indicate that at least
some attempt was being made to-
turn Government ship work away
from private companies which must
add profit to their work.
Preparing a Plan.
The Merchants and Manufacture
ers' Association, through President
King and Secretary Charles J. Co
lumbus. who were in New York when
they learned of the discharge of
employees at the Washington yard,
are preparing today before the rep.
resentatives Of the employees a plan
which 1t is hoped will result in
continuance of work at the yard.
President King will present the
situation to the association and its
board OF governors at its meeting
Tuesday. There Is no reason in
the world why the Washington
Navy Yard equipment cannot be put
to useful purposes" said Mr.. King,
and l feel sure that a survey of
its equipment will make this i'm
mediately practical. Business every
where Is giving practical demon
stration Of it's faith in the future
by not disturbing the personnel Of
business employees"
Are Paying for Houses.
Real estate men Of the city are
known to be interested in the Doe
sibility Of continued work for the
navy yard men, inasmuch as many
OF the released employees are now
paying for homes on the installment
plan, and interruption of income of
the part owners would quickly be
felt by realty interests.
A. e. Luther, secretary of Local
a., Of the Machinists' Union, re-
ported a growing concern through
out the city over the sudden action
by the Navy Department Thurs-
day. He expressed confidence In
the move made by Senator Lodge
yesterday, but declared it's worth
would necessarily depend upon the
speed with which the proposal to
shunt work into Government shops
was acted upon.

VICTORY HIGHWAY
NOT YET OFFICIAL

That the Victory Highway through
Nevada, designated as one of its State
primary routes, has not been ap-
proved by the Federal officials for
support by the Government; that Ne
vada has permitted Utah to coerce
her into naming that as its primary
road; and that the Lincoln Highway
may yet be designated as the route
chosen for Government financial aid,
were opinions advanced by I. H. Kent
before the Chamber of Commerce at
Fallon following HIS recent return
from Washington, says the Fallon
Eagle.
In a statement from Highway Com
missioner Mcdonald. who served with
Mr.. Kent on the transportation com
mittee of the agricultural conference
in Washington, continues the Eagle.
1t was declared that nothing has yet
been decided as to what roads would
be put on the primary system, and
that it is possible there will be a de-
lay of two or three months before any
decision is made. This would be left
to a disinterested group of highway
engineers, Mr.. Mcdonald declared.
and the final decision would be based
on their report.
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1922-02-25
SHEEP CONDITIONS
IMPROVING RAPIDLY

An instance of material advance
ment In northern Nevada is afforded
by the statement made to the Winnie
mucca Silver State by Senator ].
Sheehan that breeding sheep selling
figures have more than doubled with
in the last six-month period. Ewes
could not be sold for more than SIS
per head six months ago according
to Mr.. Sheehan, while they cannot be
purchased to-day for twice that sum.
The instance is cited by Senator
Sheehan as one illustrative Of the bet
tered conditions that prevail now as
~contrasted with those of a 6hort time
ago. He urges the stockman to i'm
prove the opportunities of the pres
ent and prepare for the inevitable
returns to fair and normal business
conditions.
1t is not possible, thinks Mr.. Shee-
han, to further stock the Nevada
ranges save in isolated instances.
This State, least of all in the Union,
has not been deprived of its livestock
through the retrogression that beset
business, and he believes the fact re-
fleets a distinct testimonial to the
good judgment of the men engaged
in raising livestock in this State.
There are a few exceptions to the rule
thus propounded, he said, and he is
of the opinion that there is further
range possibilities, though limited,
in the Pine Forest district innorthern
Humboldt County.
Wool buyers have about left Ne
xoIo and ,aov 10 1-.ool - u1~~-u
away until shearing time. The single
man holding the fort at this time
with a check book in his hand with
which to pay for fleece. is Ben Loin-
az. A few buyers are out in the east
ern part of the State. All may be
expected to congregate in this county
when the shearers get on the job
along about April 10.
Humboldt County wool is about so
per cent under contract while the
wool output for the State Is about 80
per emit sold. This condition is ac-
counted for by the fact that produc-
ers in other Nevada districts have
sought in a more eager fashion the
Offices of the wool buyer. Although
Mr.. Sheehan made no mention of the
apparent fact, better banking, a
characteristic phase of Winnemucca
marts, accounts for the disparity.
The midsummer sale of lambs, Mr..
estimates, will bring to Hum
boldt County a sun approximating
twice that to be received from wool
sales, and wool sales will result in
introducing almost a million dollars
into local circles. The Importance of
the sheep industry to Humboldt Coun-
ty is thus made plain.
