Still LIMPS
Dollar of Today Badly Grip.
pied, Printers Inquiry
Shows

BY International Labor News Service.
indianapolis, Ind.-The bureau of
statistics of the International Typo
graphical Union has just completed an
exhaustive survey on living costs.
according to announcement from
international headquarters here. The
figures show practically the same re-
suit 'as that reached by Herbert
Hoover, secretary Of commerce, whose
department recently completed a sur
vey.
The dollar of today is worth SO
cents, taking the 1913 dollar as q
basis of comparison, said Thomas K.
Lewis, director of the unions bureau.
Secretary Hoover found the cost OF
living about 72 per cent above the
pre-war level, which Lewis said,
would make the dollar worth about
So cents.
"The value of the dollar is a popu-
lar theme for statisticians," said
Lewis, "but opinions vary widely.
This is due to different bases of COM
putation. Recently an authority gave
a 67-cent value, but undoubtedly that
was based on broader financial trans
actions than those affecting the ordi-
nary citizen. We feel that our sur
vey must be about accurate, since the
result agrees with Secretary Hoover's
conclusions"
The survey covers various cities
and regions of the country.

SEVEN-DAY LAW
Is Void; Not Uniform, Says
Minnesota High Court

ST. Paul, Minn.-The state supreme
court ha sset aside the state law that
provides for one-day-rest-in-seven
for persons employed "in or about
any mechanical or mercantile estab-
lishment, factory, foundry, laundry,
power plant or stationary boiler or
engine room in this state"
Exceptions were made for street
cars, hospitals, clinics, telephones and
telegraph companies, undertakers,
newspapers, canneries, and other call
ings.
In declaring the law demonstrations
al, the court said:
"To be valid the act must operate
alike upon all who are similarly stu
ated. If it selects particular en-
ployes of the class, and gives to them
privileges which it withholds from
other employees of the same class; or
if it selects particular employees of the
class and imposes upon them bur-
dens and restrictions from which it
exempts other employers of the same
class, it denies the equal protection
of the laws to those Disseminated
against and thereby violates the con-
stitutional mandate.
"An examination of this statute
shows that anyone who employs men
in power plant or boiler or engine
room is within the law if the heat or
power generated is used in a hotel,
shoe factory, bakery or a restau-
rant, but is outside the law if it is
used in newspaper plant, place of
public amusement, flour mill, or
cannery.
"The need for day of rest is the
same whether the employe is general
ing heat and power for use in one or
another of the lines of business men,

A THREE DAYS
COUGH IS YOUR
DANGER SIGNAL

Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble. You can stop them
now with Creomulsion, an emulsifed
creosite that is pleasant to take. Creo-
mulsion is a new medical discovery
with wo-fold action; it soothes and
heals the infiamed membranes and in
hibits germ growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is rec
ognized by high medical authorities as
one Of the greatest healing agencies
for persistent coughs and colds and
other forms of throat troubles. Creo-
mulsion contains, in addition to creo-
sote, other healing elements which
soothe and heal the infected mem-
branes and stop the irritation and in
flammation, while the creosote goes
on to the stomach, is absorbed into
the blood, attacks the seat of the trou-
BILE and checks the growth Of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment of persistent
coughs and colds, bronchial asthma,
bronchitis and other forms of respira-
tory diseases, and is excellent for
building up the system after colds or
flu. Money refunded if any cough or
cold is not relieved after taking accord
ing to directions. Ask your druggist.
