LUMBER MILL
 STOPS WORK
 ONPRODUCTION
Cut This Season Exceeds in Amount Figures
 of Last Year

Having surpassed last years out put, the Juneau Lumber Mills this afternoon stopped production ac- tivities for this year. Office and yard forces to handle sales will be maintained throughout the winter, and a planer, re-saw and cutoff saw to plane lumber and to cut it to size, will be equipped with cleo trical power and will be available for use at all times.
 Total Not Yet Figured
 About a month ago, from March 31, when the mill began this sea- sons operations. the cut had reach ed in the neighborhood of 10,000,000 feet. Final output has not yet been figured, and will not be calculated for some time yet.
 Production this year has been greater than it was last" said Roy Rutherford, president and treasur- CT of the mills. Just how much greater, I have not yet ascertained One factor of a helpful nature was the construction of the Capitol Building here. Because of it, we cut at least 500,000 more feet of lumber than we otherwise would have.
 Fish Box Shocks
 "In addition to the planer, re- saw and cutoff saw for use in connection with lumber generally, we shall operate from time to time the machinery required in making shocks for large boxes for frozen fish.
 we have had a successful sea- son, and will be ready to resume production operations early next spring."

Unknown to Granncck, Hallie is hired as his night nurse to call the doc tor when certain symptoms de- vclcp, the night of the treat ment.

ELECTRIC FAKES
EXPOSED IN TALK
Dir. /. o. Bliss Charges Eliza
Perkins With Defrauding
George Washington.

Men of the caliber of George Wash
inston have been deceived by nimble-
lifted confidence men with fair for
claiming to cure diseases, ranging from
fiat feet to falling hair, with worthless
electric" devices.
DR.. Louis D. Bliss, noted educator,
made this statement last night in a
lecture on Electric Fakes" before the
Electric League of Washington in the
Potomac Electric Power Co. offices. The
speaker charged Eliza Perkins with de-
frauding the Father of His Country
and other eminent personageS of his
day.
Perkins made a fabulous fortune by
selling a device consisting of two small
metal rods reputed at the time to be a
cure-all through the means of cleo
tricity. Perkins made his bid for fame
soon after Benjamin Franklin attracted
lightning with key and kite. DR..
Bliss asserted Perkins convinced thou
sands of persons his product possessed
properties which would cure any malady.
A fraud order finally was issued against
the device.
Coin" EvapOrateS.
Dr. Bliss told of New York man
who was paid $500 by a power company
to explain how he managed to work an
electricity meter without depoSiting
quarters into the slots. BY freezing
etheriZed water the man obtained disc
which would evaporate after success
fully replacing a coin.
The lecturer exhibited numerous de-
vices used to defraud the public of mil
lions of dollars. His lecture was illus
trated with slides of sales literature.

JUDGE PARK ER

Will Judge Parker be confirmed by
the senate as a member of the United
States supreme court? There is al
together too much probability that
the senate will ratify the presidents
nomination, and that will be too bad.
The record shows that Judge Par
ker, as a United States circuit Judge,
confirmed one of the most drastic
injunctions on record against labor.
He granted the United Mine Workers
the right to exist, but denied them
the right to function in such a man
ner as to m axe existence possible.
That is, the union could live if it
could live by miracle. 1t could not
function so as to conduct an effect
i've strike, nor could it solicit mem
bership among miners who had sign
ed yellow dog contracts. Practically
all of them had been compelled to
sign such contracts as a considera-
tion for their jobs.
More than that, in writing his
opinion in that famous case-the Red
Jacket case-Judge Parker supported
his conclusions by quoting as prece-
dents practically every noted injunc.
tion decision rendered Heretofore.
Unless the United States supreme
court is to be definitely an institution
for the protection of property rights
against human rights and constitu-
tional, lawful human freedom, then
the United States senate ought to
tell the president that it cannot rat
ify his selection.

THE UNEMPLOYMENT CENSUS

President William Green, of the
American Federation of Labor, has
issued circular to all central labor
unions in the United States urging
full cooperation of organized labor in
making the unemployment census
full, complete and reliable. Much
depends says President Green, ION
trade union members and other wage
and salaried workers, as to whether
or not the unemployment census will
fulfill its purpose"
Every wage Garner should make it
a point to answer the questions ask
ed by the census enumerator as fully
and accurately as possible and by so
doing help to determine just how
serious the unemployment situation
is at the present time. Some observ-
ers claim that there are quite six
million jobless male and female
workers in our country today, while
others who would minimize the need
for something to be done about it as
quickly as possible, insist that not
more than one million are unemploy-
ed. A matter of SO great Importance
should not be allowed to depend on
speculation or guess work. Organized
labor must fight against the causes
that are responsible for this modern
plague that has come to affict the
workers in industry, and in order to
wage an effective battle it must find
out the damage it has done The cen
sus will tell the story.
