Government Branded as Most
Unreasonable Employer.
President of Machinist Union
Objects to Shipyard Closing.

Washington, Feb. 10.-Branding
the government as the most merci-
less. inhuman and unreasonable" of
all employers, William H Johnston,
president of the International Asso-
citation of Machin:sts, today declared
he would carry to the White House
his protest against the --unethical ac-
ton of the navy department in per-
emptorily dismissing 20 per cent OF
the personnel of the navy yards.
Sixteen thousand machin1stS In
government yards will be affected by
the order of the secretary of the navy
and sympathet;cally. it will affect
35. 900 workers in other trades and ul-
timately initiate against the well be-
ing of more than 100000 workmen
engaged in private plants, Johnston
declared.
without a word of warning. with
out a material or sentimental care for
its loyal Workmen, the government has
swept into the growing army of the
unemployed thousands of honest
workers." Johnston said.
This is the most heartless thing
that I have witnessed in thirty years
experience in industrial life. Even
private employers, engaged in business
for profit, would be at least humane
enough to give some advance notice TO
men about to be dismissed wholesale
or permit them to continue until the
situation has eased perceptibly.
"At the Washington navy yard,
where / 500 machinists are employed,
all of them reported for work yester-
day morning, unsuspecting they would
be dismissed, and on arrival at their
benches, they were summary noti-
fled that they were to go home and
not report for work until June 30.''
Johnston declared he is negotiating
today with the assistant secretary of
the navy to secure easement of the de-
partment's drastic discharge orders. If
no promise of action is forthcoming,
he said the matter will be presented to
the secretary of the navy and in all
probability direct to President Harding

CAN'T EXECUTE A DEED
Property of Joe Rank Is Bid in by
Government.

Government.
Al F. Williams, United States dis
trict attorney, sent word today to H
H. Motter, internal revenue collector,
that it would be impossible for his Of
five to execute deed in favor of the
government for the home of Joe Rank
of Franklin, Crawford county. against
whom penalties ranging above $1,000
have been inflicted for the Illegal
manufacture of intoxicating liquor.
Ranks home was advertised for
sale by internal revenue collectors sew
eral weeks ago, and when there were
no bidders, the property was bid in by
the government for the amount of the
tax and costs. amounting to approx
mately $1,000. Motter then wrote to
Williams asking him to prepare a
deed to the property which the gov
eminent could file with the register
of deeds of Crawford county.
Altho first rendering the opinion
that the property could be taken and
sold, even if a homestead. with the
owner helpless to stop the proceed
ings even with an injunction suit and
that the only possible course for the
defense was to afterwards files suit for
a rebate if the taxes or penalties had
been wrongfully inflicted, Williams
said today the person whose property
is sold has one year in which to re-
deem it and that the government can
not execute more than a certificate of
purchase until the end of that time.
During the year, however, the govern
ment'S claim will draw interest at the
rate of 20 per cent per annum.

WIND DAMAGE WAS SLIGHT
Local Weather Man Says Western
Kansas Was Not Affected.

1t is possible that the high winds
reported to have done serious damage
to the wheat crop in western Kansas
this week, did not extend over so much
of the wheat territory after all, ac-
cording to S. D. Flora, of the local
weather bureau.
Flora said today he was in receipt
of a report from Grainfield, which is
in the middle of the main wheat belt,
stating that the wind there Wednes-
day, the day when wire reports had
the Kansas wheat moving rapidly to-
ward the Nebraska sand hills was
hardly strong enough to turn a wind
mill.
This shows that the wind was prob
ably confined to the central part of
the state and that the western part
was not affected" said Flora.

MUST CONTROL TB.
Nearly One Per Cent Western
Cattle Have Disease.
Kansas Farmers at Manhattan
Told East Most Affected.

Manhattan, Kan, Feb. 10.AControl
Of tuberculosis among livestock and
poultry will mean one of the greatest
savings to farmers, its prevalence be-
ing greater than is generally recog-
nized, said DR.. A. T. Kinsley, president
of the American Veterinary Medical
association. in an address at Farm and
Home Week, Kansas State Agricul-

The extent of bovine tuberculosis
varies from Y to 1 per cent IN some
of the western states, to from D 10 81
per cent in eastern states; in SWINE, Il
per cent of all swine slaughtered; and
in fowls the disease is most common
in the north central states altho more
or less prevalent also in the Pacltlc
states, he asserted
In prevention rather than cure lies
the most salient method of attacking
the disease, DR.. Kinsley said. He out
lined the following formula for con-
trolling tuberculosis:
GAY CattIe-f Tuberculin testing all cat
tie. When reaetors are found they should
be properly disposed of and the premises
cleaned and disinfected. In herds in which
a large percentage of tubercular reactors
are found it is advisable to salvage the
entire herd excepting the purebred and
very valuable breeding animals. and they
can be properly handled by the Bang sys-
tenn.
? Cattle for breeding purposes should be
bought subject to the tuberculin test.
g. Using foods for calves or olde- cattle
that are known to be free from tubercular
Infection.
T. Disinfecting barns, cars, yards or

on Swine-1. Pasteurization of milk or
its products used for feed.
