That the War Department expects
valuable information concerning the
equipping of cavalry from the present
maneuvers is indicated in letter re-
ceived by Major General Howe from
the adjutant general of the army, di-
recting that reports be sent in by No
vember 10, covering certain phases Of
the maneuvers.
While it is realized that the present
maneuvers cover operations at peace
strength, the letter states, such in
formation will be valuable as, in the
event of sudden outbreak of HOSTILE
ties the division undoubtedly would
take the field and operate at peace
strength for a time.
Report Is Requested.
With view to ascertaining the
proper equipment, the adjutant gem
eral has requested a report on the
possibility of reducing transportation
by eliminating vehicles and placing
more reliance upon dumps. Regarding
the sufficiency of cargo transportation
issued; character of rations and
forage to be carried; amount OF am
munition necessary; whether the pres
cnt type of escort wagon is satisfac-
tory and whether the amount and
character of equipment and transpor-
tation is such as to enable the division
to take the field promptly.

Washington, ID. C., Sept. "a
Supervision of the coal industry
through specially created division OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission
was recommended TO President Cool
idge by the coal commission in its
final report.
Declaring that in the life Of the
average citizen the problem of fuel
is subsidiary "only to food and water"
the commission urged that it be
handled by "an effective agency with
sufficient funds, experience and pow
ers- at its disposal" and charged with
direct responsibility.
The basic evil of the anthracite
industry. the commission declared, lies
in its monopolistic feature which

Cork u fsggh I;,oI.u
Cork does not absorb mois-
ture. The linoleum surface
is practically waterproof.
Linoleum gets its name
from linseed oil. Exposed to
the air, linseed oil oxidizes,
turning into a tough, solid,
rubbery film. Powdered
cork and oxidized linseed oil
unite perfectly to make a
resilient, durable, yet aexi-
bic floor material.
Why linolenxn is hard
to tear
Burlap is made from jute,
which comes from India.
Heavy rope is made from
jute. The cork and linseed
oil composition is pressed or
"keyed" into the burlap
under huge rollers weighing
many tons. The burlap back
gives linoleum it's tensile
strength. You can identify
sturdy, nontearing, flexible
linoleum by its burlap back.
Look for the 'burrap weave.

city in the past month. They visited
these groceries for the purpose of hav-
ing the proprietors handle only union
labeled bread and bread manufactured
in this city. They also asked the
grocers and dealers to buy union
labeled bread in place of Krug's and
bread brought into Hamilton by the
National Biscuit Company, which
they say are unfair to their organiza-
ton. The committee was successful
in having every grocer promise to
discontinue handling the unfair bread,
except about ten. They asked the
council to appoint committees to visit
these grocers, which was granted.
The committees will visit these deal
ers Immediately and will make re-
port at the next meeting. Dealers
who refuse the bakers request will

One BIG UNIONITES
Seeing Themselves Slipping
Become Kittenish

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.-The
alleged revolutionary" movement
known as the one big union has
finally been unmasked.
The 'revolutionists" have been los
ing members so fast new moves are
necessary, SO these former defiant
spirits, who have so oft declared for
an upheaval of society, and caused
timid folk to quake, now ask the
legislature to make it illegal to dis
criminate. against them or to demand
that only trade union members be
employed.
Labor members in the legislature
refused to introduce the bill, and the
"revolutionists" were told anti-union
corporations always support such
measures.
Trade unionists say the one big
unionites have been slipping so fast
their measure is, in reality, a Motif
cation to anti-union employers that
they have an ally.
The one big unionites, of course,
offer the usual aIibi when reaction and
revolution are discovered together.
The one big union was organized in
Calgary, in June, 1919. 1t demanded
mass action and scorned contracts,
agreements or even peaceful relations
with employers.
Like all movements of this char
acter, it masked as an Industrial
union, but in reality it was a polit-
ical revolutionary movement Now
it purs and news for legislative pro
i lection.

ROADS TOLD THEY
MUST SERVE

Denver. - Governor Sweet calls
upon the railroads of this state to
serve the people. This followed the
state legislatures refusal to recog-
nize that the companies poor motive
power makes it impossible to trans
port passengers or freight
"The representatives of the public
utilities commission have made re-
peated efforts to have the railroads
remedy the critical situation which ex-
lists, without success" said the gov
ernor. "On the contrary, the motive
power of the railroads has become in
creasingly inefficient and at times
almost useless"
The governor orders the attorney
general to investigate the matter and
to act with the public utilities COM
mission. "The remedies of mandamus
and injunction are available to COM
pei obedience to their orders" the
governor declares.
The railroads present plight is
caused by their anti-union attitude to-
ward shop employees who are asking
that they accept the Baltimore agree
ment, as have more than 100 railroads
throughout the country.
The hostile attitude of the roads is
running farmers, stockmen and busi-
ness men, who can not secure trans
portation for their products.

KEENEY FREED
Attempt of Coal Owners To
Railroad Labor Leader
Fails

Berkeley Springs, w. Va.-Frank
Keeney, president of West Virginia
district, United Mine Workers, has
been freed from murder charges in
connection with the Logan county
mine strike. The prosecuting attor-
ney told the court four important wit
nesses for the state "mysteriously
disappeared"
Attorneys for Keeney objected to
this statement. They assured the
court that the witnesses would ap-
pear at the trial because they were
also witnesses for the defense. The
court was also informed that these
witnesses declared that the prosecu-
ton had compelled them to make un-
true statements.
Judge Woods ordered the witnesses
brought into the court room, but they
refused to discuss the case with the
prosecuting attorney. That official
then moved that the Indictment be
quashed and the court ordered Keeney
released.
The accused was brought to Berke-
ley Springs on change of venue from
Charles Town. Mine owners had cor
rupted public opinion in the latter
place through their vicious propagan-
da, and Keeney asked for another trial
county because he could not secure a
fair trial in Charles Town. 1t was
also proven that the sheriff and the
clerk of the court were quite willing
to aid the coal owners.

Cactus as a Fodder.

The cactus is first exposed to q
torch which burns away the thorns,
and is then carried to the slicing ma
chine, of the type that is used in sugar
works. The machine is provided with
specially formed knives and the cac-
tus is cut up into slices, which are
then dried and If desired ground into
the form of fine powder During the
slicing operation part of the juice,
which is exuded from the cactus, may
be pressed out and collected separate
ly. The juice can then be converted
into a substitute for gum arabic,
which is probably salt of meta-arabic
acid. The yield of dry material, the
fodder, Is about IL per cent of the
weight of the raw cactus.-Journal OF
