July q, 1900
Mr.. Asa Wallace, Editor
Sank Centre Herald
Dear Mr.. Wallace,
I am going to try to tell you
about our work here in the woods.
Certain reports have been out about
the hard work and poor food. All
these reports are erroneous be-
cause we get the best food OBJ
tainable and the work Is not hard.
OF course we have to put in a GER
tain number Of hours every day but
five to Ave and a half hours daily
are the limit and the only work
Saturday is in the forenoon and
that is just general police Of the
camp area which Is necessary for
the boys own health and well-being.
Some Of the fellows couldn't take
1t" and quit. They have started
these false rumors to cover their
own inability to stand any work.
Most Of the boys who enlisted from
Stearns county are still here and
are perfectly contented with the
camp. I'm sorry to say that one
of the "home town" boys had to be
AWOL after his 4th Of July leave.
He has returned now though.
We have a great sufficiency Of
wholesome, well cooked grub" In
fact the Regular Army cook in
charge Is a leader in his field. Our
OFFICERS eat the same food as the
men get and If 1t wasn't good there
would certainly be some kick from
them.
At present most Of the trainees
(technical name for the enlisted
CCCs) are working in the woods
scalping, that is cutting the sod
and humas down to mineral soil
before the seedlings are planted. It
isn't very desirable work through
the brush but 1t isn't hard labor,
In fact the boys would rather do
that than a days KIP. The first
seedlings to be planted win be

Answered
Washington Cleans Up Many
Perplexing Questions for
the Employer
MAY DISCHARGE HELP
Peculiar Twists to Law Hard
for Average Citizen to
Reconcile

Washington, Aug. Here al
nswers to questions regardin
pecific problems raised by Pres
ent Roosevelt's voluntary re-en
'loyment agreements as compile
rom official NRA sources:
%Can an employer work an
employee In o retail store dur
Ing the rush period In the
morning, and then release him
until another busy period be-
gins In midafternoon?
A-This would be interpreted
as q violation Of the spirit of
the agreement.
Q-Are luncheon and rest pc
RODS deductable from the num-
ber of hours worked to bring
the total within the specified
number.
Ayes, within reason. Pro-
longed luncheon and rest per-
iods would be regarded, how
ever, as opposed to the spirit
Of the agreement.
Q-Is an employer obliged to
retain all present employees,
regardless Of their efficiency?
A-No, there is nothing In the
agreement compelling an en-
ployer to retain particular en-
ployees, provided the ones he
hires are paid at least the min
iInum wage.
Q-What would prevent an
employer from discharging per-
SONS now receiving more than
the minimum and hiring inex-
perienced workers at lower
pay, thus creating a new group
Of unemployed.
A-This would be regarded
as q violation of the agreement
to spread employment and in
crease wages. There Is no
provision In the blanket agree
ment for q report on personnel
and wages added, but q ques-
ti0nnaire Is 10 be distributed
on this point, and those who
have made no real contribution
to unemployment will be de-
prived of the blue eagle.
Q-HOw do the smaller en-
ployers receive the blank agree
ment forms?
ALI the forms are not re-
ceiyed through the mail they
may be obtained at the local
postoffice.
Q-Do the public utilities
come under the recovery act so
far as the blanket agreement
and separate codes Of fair COM
petition are concerned.
Ayes.
Q-Are railroads affected, and
will dispatchers, operators, con-
ductors and trainmen be put on
shorter work weeks?
Alt has been assumed that
railroads are not under the
MIRA. The NRA has not made
a specific ruling.
Q-DOes the NRA affect
workers on large estates, gar
deners, chauffeurs, maids, etc?
A-NO.
Q-How will hotel employees
be affected?
A-They will be regarded as
service" employees with q
maximum work week Of 40
hours and graduated minimum
pay depending on the size Of
their city.
Own there be any Objec-
ton to agreements for uniform
opening and closing hours in
stores of any given city?
A-No, provided the stores do
not reduce thier hours below
the Sc specified I'm Paragraph
2 of the agreement.
GA waitress IL paid 80
cents q day and tips. Must the

REPEAL GIVES CANADA
"SERIOUS PROBLEM"
Relations With United States Ex-
pected to Be Discussed at
Premier's Conference.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MONTREAL, December 8.-The
Montreal Gazette said today serious
problem" has been created for provinces
which lean so heavily on the sale of
liquor" by the repeal of constitutional
prohibition in the United States.
AS a result, the newspaper said, Can
ada's relations with the United States
in connection with liquor probably will
be brought before the forthcoming con-
ference of provincial premiers.
THE salvation of the provincial treas
uries lies only in Ottawa agreeing to
materially reduce the excise duties on
Canadian liquor, homemade or from
abroad" the Gazette said.
OF affairs in Quebec alone, the news
paper added that, leaving aside the
question of bootlegging from the United
States to Canada, sales of the Quebec
liquor commission to a fairly large eX-
tent have been due to buying by citizens
of the United States and by those send
ing supplies across the border
The Gazette said there was danger
that the bootlegger will return the COM
pliment and instead of Canadian whis-
ky going to the United States, the much
cheaper liquor of the United States
providing that news reports of compar-
atively low excise duties in that country
are accurate-will flood this province
and Canada generally"

locks in Western Pennsylvania.
Already the Federal Court has lifted
two injunctions imposed during the dry

A permanent injunction prohibiting
the sale of intoxicating liquor in the
Wolfendale Hotel, Pittsburgh, was
modified yesterday by Federal Judge
r. M. Gibson to permit the vending of
beer. whiskies, wines and gin.
The owner of the property, Elizabeth
r. Wolfendale, was the first person in
the western district of Pennsylvania to
take advantage of the repeal of the
eighteenth amendment to seek modifi-
cation of drastic ban imposed early
this year.
Soon afterward. Judge Gibson handed
down an order modifying liquor pad
lock writ against the German Beneficial
Union of New Castle, Pa.
Records of the prohibition enforce
ment unit and the United States at
torney's Office disclose that 76 other
premises in the district are enjoined
from selling spirits. Action to lift the
ban IS expected shortly, although the
State liquor control board has indicated
it will scrutinize closely applications
from all places.
