Apprehended in Tulsa, Oklahoma While
on Visit to His Wife, Now on
His Way to G|enwood
HIS CAR IS RECOVERED IN RIFLE

Through some clever work on the
part of Sheriff Winters, Hal R. ia
cobs, badly wanted by the American
Railway Express company since Fri
day, December 12, for embezzlement of
funds from the company while serving
MS cashier at the Glenwood office, has
been apprehended and is now in Jail
in Tulsa, Oklahoma, # not already on
the way to Gfenwood in company with
Detective Day, TO face the criminal
charge to be filed against him.
On the fateful Friday, Jacobs re-
quested from Agent Croyle a tempo
rary leave, saying he decided to drive
to Meeker to appear in a court case in
which he had monetary interest. His
request was granted, and no thought
was given the matter until the follow
ing Monday, the date voluntarily fixed
by Jacobs for his return, when an in
quiry disclosed the fact that he had not
been seen in Meeker, and that no
court case, such as he referred to, had
been scheduled.
Auditor D. T. Wright Of Grand
Junction was dispatched to Glenwood
The Glenwood post., 1924-12-25

to make Il careful check of the office,
and although his report has not been
made public, it is admitted that the
audit disclosed very considerable
shortage.
Mrs. Jacobs left Glenwood about two
months ago for a visit to relatives at
Tulsa, Oklahoma, and on the theory
that Jacobs would seel, his wife, Sher-
'f' Winters secured the address of Mrs
'acobs' people, and hH1 the place
Tutched by the sheriff at Tulsa. The
..cme worked, and Jacobs fell into
the trap and was soon landed in jail
Just as Winters was ready to leave
for Tulsa to bring his prisoner to Glen
wood for trial, he received word that
Jacobs would waive extradition and
would return to Colorado with Detec-
tive Day. 1t is expected that he will
arrive in Glenwood tomorrow.
Sheriff Winters this week located
in Joe Clark's garage at Rifle the
Star car which Jacobs drove away
from Glenwood, and which he left at
Rifle for storage the same day he
drove away from Glenwood, probably

blessings of America to choose this
country as place of residence, but
who apparently has little concern for
the laws of his adopted country.
But just think what these bold, bad
officers did. Yesterday morning they.
called at Zadra's home on the Mead
ows ranch near the lime kiln lust be-
low town. zadra appeared to appre-
ciate their pre- Christmas visit until,
attracted by an odor not similar to
that of frying bacon, the officers be-
gan shopping around in various direc-
tions, aided by their olfactory nerves,
until they had made very thorough
investigation of the premises occupied
by Zadra and his wife.
The Officers were rewarded by a
find of three gallons of raisin whisky,
25 gallons of mash, 20 gallons of wine
and other evidences of moonshine pros
perity, although no stirl was discov-
cred. The most of the contraband stuff
was secreted in a small cellar Just off
from the kitchen.
The officers seemed to have but
slight consideration for Zadra IS appe-
tite and his rights at the joyous Christ
mas period and proceeded to spill the
liquid joy on the snow and start it
toward the creek. They rudely shat.
tered the owners visions of splendid
holiday trade and fat purse as a
result of the lively shopping, and cited
Zadra to appear in the afternoon be.

and explain why his pretense at "dry
farming was misnomer.
| When arraigned in court Zadra ac.
knowledged the corn, and likewise the
raisins, and pleaded guilty to manu-.
featuring and possession, contrary to
the laws that prevail in America, the
country of his adoption, and was given
fine of $4O0 and costs, half Of which
he paid in cash, with promise to can.

Compliment Creamery and
Milling Companies on
Service to City
ALL ENJOYED Big FEED

Every industry that comes to Glen.
wood and succeeds becomes a valuable
asset to the entire community, distrib-
uting money throughout the community
by way of purchasing the products of
the farmers and others, and also by
way of employing laborers who in turn
purchase from our merchants, and thus
dies the transaction become an endless
chain, adding to the general prosperity
of the people.
When the Farmers Creamery moved
its plant down from Carbondale, re.
organizing under the name of the Glen
wood springs Creamery company, our
people felt that there had been added
to our community an industry that
would grow and prosper and stimulate
the dairy industry in this vicinity,
and thus prove of great value to Glen,
wood i'll bushes way.
Several years ago there was organ
lied in Glenwood the Farmers Milling
company, an institution which has
proved of great value to the large ter
ritory adjacent to this community, by
furnishing good market for the grain
produced by the farmers and at the
same time supplying our town people
with an excellent quality of flour, corn
meal, breakfast food and other food
articles.
With a view of calling attention to
these two home industries the chamber
of commerce last Saturday arranged II
MONDAY Luncheon at the Dougan build
ing, nearly all of the food that was
served being the product of the two
manufacturing institutions mentioned
above.
About three hundred people, partial
ly out of curiosity but chiefly by way
of showing their appreciation of these
two productive industries, partook of
the luncheon and thoroughly enjoyed
the same. The menu follows:
Hot cakes, made from Yampah pan
cake or waffle flour, served with Glen
wood creamery butter, and syrup;
Yampa breakfast food, served with
cream donated by the Glenwood cream
cry;
Hot rolls or homemade bread from
Yampah flour;
Glenwood creamery cottage cheese;
Cottage cheese pie.
Sugar, donated by the Holly Sugar
corporation of Grand Junction;
Coffee, donated by the j. S. Brown
Mercantile company of Denver.
Plenty of milk and buttermilk, do
mated by the Glenwood Creamery COM
pany.
In addition to the freely donated pro-
ducts of the Farmers Milling compa-
ny and the Creamery ccrli,'ry, Mrs. W.
p. HeSerling was there with her cleo
t.i,ally p.rated salad machine, produc-
ing very fine quality of salad dress
.uy, which was free to all. and which
.'as realty enjoyed.
Those who so ably assisted in the
serving during the day were Miss Ruth
Edwards, domestic science teacher in
our schools, and ten of her girl pupils.
Also Mrs. ]. I. Burdge, Mrs. @. M.
Keck, Mrs. J. G. Schwarz, Mrs. r. W.

1t had been announced that prizes of
sack of ampa flour would be given
by the Farmers Milling company to

FARMING
AND FINANCE

Sugar from artichokes may yet cause
cane and beet sugar to take back
seat in the museum of curosities. Ac-
cording to DR.. R. f. Jackson, the bu-
reau of standards Of the department of
agriculture has developed a process for
the extraction of sugar from arti-
chokes. The process is simple and
cheap, and the sugar obtained is one
ent product. Furthermore, the arti-
choke is easy to cultivate and yields
more to the acre than either cane or
beets.
Sales of agricultural implements
abroad have netted American manufac-
turers $47 $40, $50 during the first nine
months of 1924, according to the de-
partment of commerce. This is already
81 100000 ahead of the total for last
year. With the revival of buying in
this country the implement industry
should experience a welcome revival Of
business.
The farmers are just 00,000, 900
ahead of last year, according to a re-
port just made public by the d,part-
ment of agriculture. The figures, com
piled by the late Henry c. Wallace,
sets this year farm income at $12,-
100000, 900, as compared with $11,-
500, 100000 a year ago, and $9,55O-
100000 for the previcns year. The
farmer s purchasing power is estimated
at 16%o above the low of 1920. The
half billion dollars of extra purchas.
ing power not only helps the farmer,
wha has been greatly Handicapped
these last few years, but it is also
especially important to general bust
ness. An extra dollar in the hands of
the farmer may be said to reprS sent
original purchasing power. Starting
from the land it works its way through
our entire business world. This half
billion dollars in added purchasing
power not only brings the farmer back
into the market, but reperes nts po-
tential ten billions in total transac.

Sudan cotton grown by the British
in Egypt has bobbed up from time to
time as a possible threat to American
cotton supremacy 1t is a fact that
cotton can be grown in the Sudan, and
a very fine grade of cotton at that.
But in order to grow it, the land must
+, be irrigated. Water from the Nile
used for this purpose deprives lower
Egypt of very necessary water. What
is gained in the Sudan is lost at the

Personal Rights

There are two classes of thought in this matter of personal rights.
 One class believes that men have cer- tain rights from the very fact that they are men; that all states exist to con- serve these rights; that no state has the power to infringe them or take them away. This is the doctrine of the Declaration of the Independnce, the Constitution and the First Amendments known as the Bill of Rights.
 The second class holds that men have no rights except such as they receive from the state, and what the state has given, the state can take away. This is the doctrine of both the inperialists and bolshevists,-T Leader, San Fran cisco

PAY ROLLS ARE LOWER

Albany, N. Y., Sept. 13.-Factory pay rolls in this state were $50O,0O0 a week less in July than in June, according tc the state department of labor. July was the fourth successive month of con- traCting pay rolls. A part of the ue- cline might be ascribed to the usual summer vacations and the slowing up of production and earnings because of the Saturday half-holiday, said Indus trial Commissioner Shientag. 'The fact remains however, that weekly pay rolls are $6,OO0,OO0 lower than they were in July of last year, when the summer let down was in effect the same as now.'

MINERS WON'T ASSIST
 COAL OWNERS PLOT

Fairmont, w. Va, Sept. 13.-The United Mine Workers of America has declined to aid anti-union coal owners i'll legalizing their barbaric policy of evicting miners families from shacks they call nome"
 Judge Lazelle of Monongalia county favored the plan, according to Roscoe P. Posten, prosecuting attorney of that county, who informed Van Bittner, rep resentative of the mine workers that Judge Lazelle asked that the mine workers join with these coal owners in request to him that a special term of court be held to try the eviction cases.
 In refusing Judge Lazelle's sugges- ton, Representative Bittner said that the coal owners house their live stock and their automobiles better than their employees.
 "Without arguing the legal equations involved" said Van Bittner in his let ter to the Monongalia prosecutor, i've say to you that every man is faced with a moral obligation in life that he can not escape. No man can convince us that 1t is morally right to evict miners and their wives and little ones from these coal company houses and throw them on the highway just because they are fighting for the things guaranteed every American, the God-given right of life, liberty and the pursuit of hap piness.'
 We have seen the anti-union coal operators of West Virginia, in their in sane desire to worship at the altar of greed, forcibly break down the doors of the miners homes and forcibly eject the miner, his wife, his babes from the only place they can call home.
 "Only recently at Brady, West Vir- ginia, the miners homes were broken into by gunmen in the employ of that with Samuel Brady himself the work of destruction. Wo- women, if you please born and reared in West Virginia, and little children, were driven to the hills for shelter, While this un-American scene was enacted, Sheriff Yost of Mo- nongalia county watched the proceed ings.
 Most of the homes from which our people have been evicted are miserable shacks for which they have paid in rents many times the original cost.
 "We charge that the hiring of armed guards by the anti-union coal operators children out of their homes, can not be de tended"

were allowed under-maintenance by the Director General to the extent that, in his judgment, he could pay in accor- dance with the terms of the contract tn Director Generals regulations and the decisions of the Interstate Com merce Commission. These claims, as thus established and allowed were duly credited to the. Company in the final settlement. We believe that we were fairly entitled to a greater sum for un- der-maintenance that what we received. 1 trust the foregoing will make clear the nature of the $oO,000,00O. payment, namely, that 1t is a net settlement for all items of every character on either side between the Government and the Company, and that far from represent ing payment for ver-maintenance, 1t embraces allowances for many estab- Hshed items of under-maintenance This is offered solely in the in terest of accuracy and a clearer grasp of the facts.

State Compensation
 For All Is Favored

Portland, Ore, Sept. 13.-Organized labor's proposal that Oregon adopt compulsory workmen's compensation, under state control, has aroused the pri- vate insurance companies, contract hos pital associations and contract doctors. These exploiters of injured workers are attacking the humane proposal that all profit be taken out of workmen's com pensation.
 Trade unionists are pointing out that the cost of operating the Oregon indus trial accident commission, state lnst1- tuition, is less than 10 per cent. This in cludes overhead, and is against a A per cent. cost of the private insurance companies.
 Under state insurance the workman has 90 per cent. of his insurance money placed to his credit, and under the other system he has but 5o per cent. of his money to his credit In addition, the state maintains rehabilitation hosplta for the purpose of correcting detoTrnl- ties that result from injuries without cost to the individual.

Federal Maternity Act
 Has COnfOunded Foes

Washington, Sept 13.-The federal maternity and infancy act has proven successful and has confounded it's op- ponents, according to a statement by the United States childrens bureau.
 The law has been in existence Is months. Under its operation the federal government gives states an amount of money equal to appropriations these states make to carry on maternity and infancy educational work. No other is compelled to accept this information.
 The act has already demonstrated its value, in that it has:
 HStimulated state activities in mater nal and infancy hygiene.
 Maintained the principle of local initiative and responsibility.
 Improved the quality of the work being done for mothers and babies by disseminating through a central source the federal government-the results of scientific research and methods of work which have been found to oper- ate successfully"
 The federal government and the states that have accepted the act have expended $1,o88O4712 to promote the welfare of mothers and babies.
 Every state but Kansas, Illinois, Yer mont, Maine, Massachusetts,, Connecti- cut and Rhode Island have accepted the act.

Yearly, Not Weekly, Income Is Basis For
 Wage Increase

San Francisco, Sept 13-In an award that increased printers wages $5 week, Judge Frank R. Devlin, former member of the state railroad commits
 sion, made allowance for lack of work,
 sickness, holidays and other causes for
 idleness in estimating a yearly wage az gregate.
 The arbitrator declared that 47 weeks instead of g weeks, represents the average employment for these workers, and that their wages should be based accordingly. Judge Devlin let it be un- derstood that he Is more interested in the yearly income of the worker than in the wage of one week This reasoning when applied to seasonal trades, will shatter the "high-wage" claim of those who merely consider one weeks, wage.
 "In order that proper comparison can be made with cost of living and other important factors, based upon annual periods" said Judge Devlin inquiry should be made as to what given weekly wage would aggregate for year, after proper deductions for the period of time that the wage earner is not paid for, due to holidays, vacation periods, sickness and other similar cau- ses.
 Obviously, to take weekly wage and multiply by g would fall short of what the minimum weekly wage aggre- gates for the year. ,...
 "It appears, however, that with the six holidays and two-weeks' vacation period deducted, aggregating about three weeks, that two weeks added thereto for the year, to meet contingent losses due to sickness, lack of work and other causes occasioning lack of em- ployment, would approximate the fair and reasonable in this regard, thus mak- ing AZ weeks represent the average paid for regular time in. year.

Social Legislation
 Urged In Tennessee

Nashville, Tenn, Sept 13-Organ- ized labor in this state is preparing to urge its legislative program at the forthcoming meeting of the Tennessee general assembly. The federal child la bor amendmnt is given t1rst position, and every effort will be made to elect sympathetic governor and legislature.
 ':lt IS foregoing conclusion that the ratification will be vigorously opposed by those Tennessee employers who coin dollars from the sweat and blood of childhood" said David Hanly, legisla- tive chairman of the state federation of labor.
 The women's organizations as we'll as the labor unions of this state should arouse themselves and see that no per son is elected to the governorship or to the legislature who is not in favor of this amendment" said Mir. Hanly
 Another important proposal is the compensation law amendments that will bring the Tennessee act in line with modern thought. The outstanding de- feet in this act is that it is administered by the courts. This makes compensa- ton settlements slow, complicated and costly and tends to defeat the purpose of the act.
 The passage of a "1oan shark" bill, and an act to limit the hours of female labor will also be urged. The present law allows female labor to be worked 57 hours per week.
