tor Reports on Harvest
Conditions
LABORERS MOVE NORTH

No labor shortage is expected in
the Dakotas during the harvest sea-
son, according to George F.. Tucker,
director, farm labor division, U. S.
Employment Service, in a statement
on the harvest, issued from Kansas
City, Missouri.
The harvest has progressed through
Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri,
Colorado and through most Of Ne
braska, he says. More than 10000
outside laborers were required to
care for the crop. The supply of
labor has been adequate. although
feared there would not be enough
men, Mr.. Tucker says. Regarding
North Dakota, South Dakota and
Montana, the statement says:
South Dakota
"Harvesting in South Dakota will
start in the Southeastern districts
about July 25th to 28th. This state
has about 100000 acres of Spring
wheat, oats, barley and rye. The con-
dition of the crops is better than last
year and several thousand men will
be required to harvest the small
grain crops.
"Specal Agents of this Service are
now stationed at Sioux Falls, Nit
chell, Huron, Redfield. Watertown
and Aberdeen. Temporary Field
Headquarters of the Farm Labor Di-
vision will be opened at Aberdeen,
July oath.
North Dakota
"While the harvested acreage of
Spring wheat in this state wilt be
about 100000 acres less than last
year, the July estimate indicates a
production of about $4,000, 900 bushels
more than in 1923 on an acreage of
7,436,OOO. The wheat, oats and bar
ley to be harvested in North Dakota
totals more than III 100000 acres. The
rye harvest in North Dakota will
start about July 25th and the cutting
of wheat will begin the first of
August.
Thousands of harvest hands will
be required and the drift ut this
time to the Dakotas from the South
ern fields is heavy. This Service
does not anticipate any shortage of
labor in the Dakotas. This Service,
cooperating closely with the State
Labor Commission and the County
Agents of North Dakota, vii have
Special Agents stationed at Oakes,
Fargo, Grand Forks, jamestown, De-
wills Lake, Minot, Bismarck, Williston,
and at other distributing centers if
needed. These offices will be ope ned
within a few days. Temporary Field
Headquarters will be maintained at
the Public Employment Office at Far
60.
Montana
"Montana's prospect for good
wheat crop is favorable. This state
has 100000 acres of Spring and
Winter wheat and several thousand
men from the outside will be needed
to care for the crop.
"The Farm Labor Division will
maintain offices for the distribution
Of labor at Bainville, Miles City,
Billings, Great Falls, and such other
points as may seem desirable. All
Offices in the Dakotas will have full
information at all times as to the
needs of Montana and frequent an
nouncements will be issued to State

WORKERS WINNING
Their Fight Despite Increase
of Labor Injunction Foe

Chicago,-For the first time in Ill
inois, the candidates in the state pri-
maries of the two leading political
parties publicly announce their oppo-
sition to the misuse Of the injunction
writ.
This concession to public opinion
is traceable to the Illinois state
federation Of labor's continuous
anti-injunction campaign.
No state body has dealt harder
blow to the labor injunction. The
smashing methods and the easily
understood logic Of these trade un-
ionists is indicated by the following,
their latest broadside against this
judicial inequity:
"The misuse of the injunction sys-
TEN to regulate the personal conduct
of citizens by arbitrary command of
individual judges and summary pun
ishment without trial by jury, is a
practice SO utterly subversive to the
constitution that neither public Off
cials nor private citizens attempted
to use it even in defense of the nation
against treason and sedition during
the recent world war.
"Nor is it now used to restrict act
ivities of even the known profession
al criminals who infest our cities, nor
against the great horde of bootleg
gers now overrunning the land, but is
confined almost exclusively to use a.
gainst working people during indust-
rial disputes.
"It is a distinct class instrument,
practically foreign to American life
until approximately 80 years ago, it's
development having been without the
sanction of either constitutional am
endment or legislative enactment"

proffering a couple.
The stranger accepted the cigars Of

chat.
Suddenly there was a cracking
sound. followed by loud bang"
His face and clothing covered with
fragments Of cigar and ashes, the
husky victim started after Mike.
It was no time for explanations.

got away.

Concernlno inks.

Inks are said to play an important
part in the detection Of forgery, espe-
cially when question arises as to the
particular time a document was
penned or signed.
It is claimed that blue-black inks
may be recognized as fresh up to the
sixth day. and that, In after years,
their age may be determined when
the blue provisional pigment has
faded and left only the black.
The blue coloring, 1t seems, as time
elapses Is scarcely acted upon by re-
agents. but for year or two 1t will
at once diffuse If treated with a 80
per cent solution Of acetic acid,
whereas when 1t is five or six years
old diffusion, If 1t occurs at all, Is ex-
tremely slow and limited In extent.
1t is averred that still more use

PROPERTY JUCCLED
TO UPHOLD PRICE

Washington.-A senate committees
secret probe reveals that bankers and
real estate men are Withholding prop
erty from the market and creating
fictitious values to hold rents to a
high level.
The probe shows that bankers re-
fuse to handle first mortgages that do
not expire in three years or less. The
home owner is compelled, with each
renewal, to pay commissions, bonus
and other charges.
Union wage scales are used by in
vestors as a basis of costs to get
loans from banks. The union contrac-
tor is then discarded for non-union
contractor whose labor cost is lower
The specifications of the building are
changed and cheaper material is used.
The value of the ground is also in
creased and the ostensible cost of the
building appears from 80 to 40 per
cent more than actual cost. With
these fictitious figures, the investor
pleads that rents must be high "to se-
cure fair return on his investment"
If the property is sold the buyer
must pay for the false value. He
must also pay enormous commissions
for second trust, or mortgage.
Bankers and builders, it is stated,
act jointly and building operations are
conducted for speculative purposes,
rather than to supply the legitimate
housing demand.

Cleanliness must come back. Amer
lea demands a terrific cleanliness
cleanliness that is uncompromising
and inexorable. America demands a
nobility of cleanliness, an aristocracy
of cleanliness, a great and austere
righteousness in public office. That
is one of the great expressions of
Americanism.
The elections offer Americans their
opportunity to speak and to heap
their burning condemnation upon
those who have betrayed the peoples
trust-also upon the whole concept of
public trust for private gain. The
people, in the elections, have the op-
portunitiy to scar with blazing wrath
the whole sickening, tawdry charlan-
try and debauchery that has made the
national capital reek with it's Offend

Labor has in it's soul the idealism
of America. Labor keeps alight the
flaming torch of freedom. Labor has
its eyes on the heights. Labor throbs
with the great purpose of America.
Labor has a mission which is to help
America be herself. Labor, with all
of the people, has its chance in the

"Organized labor is now one of
