NOTICE FROM DYER
United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5.-Claims
of each side in the rail shopmen s
strike contradicted each other today.
Southern Pacific officials held about
35 percent of the shopmen were work
ing with forces of about so percent
normal on the job in Sacramento and
Los Angeles, including new men hired.
L. S. Gordon, secretary y-treasurer OF
the Federation of Railway employees,
No. ia, says about $4,000 men are out
or about 80 percent. Gordon says q
few stragglers who did not go out Sat
urday joined the strikers ranks today.
July 6 Set AS Deadline
From Los Angeles, j. H. Dyer, gener-
al manager of the Southern Pacific to-
day addressed notice to all employees
who have quit work, calling them to
return to work promptly. This notice
reads:
"You have no quarrel with S. P. Co.
therefore this, strike is against the
government because the United States
railroad board which you protest is the
government under the law. The find
ings of the board will be upheld by
public opinion. Your salaried leaders
and their families will not suffer the
loss, privations that will come to most
of the rank and file who fail to re-
turn to the service and those who are
dear to them. 1 believe you have been
mislead, have acted hastily without full
realization of the grave consequences
of your action and want to give you
the opportunity Of correcting your mis-
take before others are employed to
take your former places.
"Those who report for duty prompt
ly will have their seniority, pension and
pass privileges restored without preju-
dice.
"After Z a. m. July 6, 1922 those
who fail to report for duty at their
regular starting time of the shift of
which they last worked shall forfeit the
privilege of being returned to the serv-
ice and their former places will be con-
ployes."

OGDEN, Utah, July 5.-Desertion

final hour set by Southern Pacific Of
ficials for men to return and retain
their seniority and pensions.
Southern Pacific division officials
said they expected nearly all the 77O
men who answered the strike call here
Saturday, would return to work by to-
morrow morning to save their places
and rating.

Old Folks Talk as
HCentr0KidBakes

Efforts of the Press to interest Ell
Centre citizens and authorities in pro-
viding place where painting kids could
at least get wet in this torrid weather
without having to pay a cash toll Of
some sort or go without has awakened
general agreement that something of
the sort should be provided0
Nearly all the advocates have a diff,
ferent opinion, however, of what should
be done, and meanwhile the fricasseed
kid is sweatily wondering over so much
talk about the simple matter of getting
/ some water into hole or streaming
through pipes overhead.
It strikes him as queer too, that most
Of the folks who are doing the talking
and disagreeing and getting nowhere
are the folks who have no need Of a
pool and wouldn't have to care what
kind of a place it was SO far they were
personally concerned. What he is hop
ing desperately for is a chance to get
into the water, and he has a lot of long
hot weeks ahead to carry that hope
through, while the other folks are off
to the mountains or seashore.
Although the public shower plan is
affording welcome relief at fire sta
tions in eastern cities, Chief Ferguson
has found numerous reasons why it
couldn't be practicable here.
Others pronounce the project of en-
larging the park pool as Objectionable
and oppose that.
The swimming tank proprietor, in a
natural desire to protect and promote
his business, has proposition to make
the council to let a certain number of
kids into his place free on condition
that the city supply him free water.
Members Of the Rotary club say they
are anxious to help the scheme all they
can, but nobody is actually doing any
thing yet that promises relief this
summer.
Engineer H. M. OFT, of the city
water department, figures concrete
pool 40 by so feet could be constructed
for $1,000 He proposes one for the
cast side as well as main part Of town.
That isn't huge outlay and an organ
lied campaign in behalf Of the boy life
Of Ell Centre would doubtless put it
over. The Elks Big Brother idea has
handled bigger things elsewhere.
One prominent citizen has offered a
contribution that amounts to more
than $100 as temporary relief and H. G..
Stevens is trying to get the ball to roll
ing today with S25 contribution to-
ward swimming pool.
Others are systematically and earn
estly working for an outlay eventually
that will provide Ell Centre with not
able public bathing feature and settle
the present sizzling problem of how a
kid is going to keep cool for years to
come. Some of these estimates run as
high as S25,OO0.
The fact remains that other cities all
over the country, including the west
Pacific coast and northwest, have pro-
vided adequate swimming and wading
places for the children at little cost to
build or maintain and none of these
places have the climatic need of them
to the extent Ell Centre has.

Doukhobours Deny
Plan to Kill Children

Nelson, B. C., Feb. 27.--The Douk-
hobours of Canada, otherwise known
as the Christian Community Of Uni
versal Brotherhood, merely ex-
pressed theoretical advocacy o.
massacre of their children and aged
according TO the explanation now Of
fered by Peter Veregin, president OF
the band. in letter to the Daily
News here. In his letter he ex-
presses some alarm at the apparent
indignation of Canadians over the
announcement of the sect some DAYS
ago that the members were con-
templating migration to escape taxa
ton, in which event it might be
found necessary to kill off children
and aged persons who impeded the
progress of the wanderers.
After apologizing to the Canadian
public, particularly the women, the
Doukhobour Chieitain explains that
the children OF the colony are on
the verge of starvation, being de-
prived of milk through the forced
sale of COWS in 1920 for the payment
OF taxes. He protests against income
tax collections totaling $4,000 claim
ing earnings of individual members
TO be within exemption limits.
