LABOR DISPUTE
MAY TIE UP WORK
Dispute Between Carpenters
and Steel Workers May De-
lay !. c. C.>BuiIding Project.

"A dispute between carpenters and
steel workers over the right to install
radiator Enclosures in the new Labor
Department and Interstate Commerce
Commission Building threatened today
to bring work on both projects to a
virtual standstill.
Seventy-flve carpenters walked out
10 days ago and are still on strike,
with no settlement in sight Mean
while efforts to arbitrate the matter
through the Labor Department and
the American Federation of Labor
failed to break the deadlock.
Other Groups to Be Affected.
The steel workers claim a right to
install any equipment which bolts to
the metal window frames in the new
buildings. On the other hand, the
carpenters are as insiStent that the
metal Enclosures for the radiators,
which fit under the window sills, come
within their jurisdiction.
The general contractor, James Stew
art &, Co., Inc, is taxing neither side
E. A. Burnat, construction superin-
tendent, pointed out, however, that
unless the two groups come to an
agreement the tie-up will affect plas
terers, bricklayers, electricians, tile set
ters, cement flnishers, marble settlers
and members of virtually every trade
group employed on the two projects.
Unless work progresses on installing
some 900 radiator shields, so or 100
bricklayers must be laid off in the next
few days, and plans for doubling the
force of 100 plasterers will have to be
deferred. Mr.. Burnat said. Members OF
other trade groups also must be laid
off.
Disputed for Three Months.
MIR. Burnat said he was informed the
Labor Department could take no hand
in settling the dispute between trade
groups over jurisdiction of work. The
dispute between the two groups has
been in progress for almost three
months, although the walkout Septem-
ber / was the first direct action taken
in the affair.
The two buildings with their con-
Meeting link were to have been COM
pleted in February, but this program
already has been set back by the dis
pute which Is assuming snow bali
proportions, Mr.. Burnat said.
"The company" Mr.. Burnat con-
tinued, ''is favoring neither side. 1t
will be all right with us II either the
steel workers or the carpenters get the
Job. What we hope is that the two
groups will settle it between themselves
to the satisfaction Of both sizes, anu
the sooner the better!"

More Encouragement for
Profit in Poultry Game

According to figures Issued by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, the number of hens and
pullets In farm iocks Is from 4 to
s per cent greater than one year
ago. II Is thought that egg produc-
ton may not be larger for some
time to come. The reason given for
this estimate is the higher percent
age of late Matched pullets, and
also because 1t Ia doubtful whether
this winter will be as mild as that
of a year ago.
Aside from this, the storage stu
alton 10 more favorable. Holdings
Of case eggs On September l were
"a per cent below those on the cor
responding date last year, and 81
per cent below the average OF the
last FIVE years. With this reduc-
ton In storage supplies, even II cur
rent production should prove larger
than last year. there would still be
a considerably smaller supply Of
eggs available for consumption DUR
Ing the next few months.
Egg shipments from the Pacific
coast has been light for some time,
and may decrease still further. be-
cause of a 10 per cent estimated
decrease Of chicks raised last spring
and summer. The low price OF
feed will also be an important FAC
tor In bringing profitable returns
from all fiocks which are well bred
and well fed-Wallace's Farmer.
Red Lodge daily news combined with Carbon County news., 1933-03-01

II your poultry flock Is not pro-
ducing as efficiently as you know 1t
should be, check up on the available
feeding and watering space. See
that there Is plenty of room for
all the birds to eat freely and see
further that they are given a rood
balanced ration which will stimu-
late and maintain egg production.
Poorly-fed birds will not be good
producers. Hens win pay a better
price for feed than any other kind
of animal produced ON the farm
Prairie Farmer.
Red Lodge daily news combined with Carbon County news., 1933-03-01

Clean feed Is an important part
of the whole scheme Of poultry rails
Ing. II Is not sufficient to mix or
to buy clean feed. The entire ra-
ton must be kept clean until eaten
by the chickens. 1t Is well to have
IN absolute rule that no feed Of
any kind Is to be thrown In the lit
ter, on the floor, or on the ground
where 1t can be eaten by the chicks.
OF course, IL a small number OF
chicks Is being raised and ample
range Is available SO that the grain
can be thrown on a new spot each
time the chickens are fed, there can
be no serious objection to this prac-
tice. Rarely are conditions 80 ia
vorable; so, the best practice is to
feed all grain as well as mash In
hoppers.

last month. Contributing to this achieve
ment was the newspaper lineage used
by the three leading retail store organi-
cations. One used 16 pages in one
issue, and the other two each used eight
pages. New automobile sales of the last
three months tripled the volume of the
same period of last year.
Des Moines Gains Cited.
Likewise, retail stores In Des Molnes
are showing large gains over last
year" and q still greater business boom
is looked for in that section through the
distribution Of $60, 100000 to $40, 1000, 900
Of Government money to Iowa farmers
within the next three months.
The Governments wheat bonus OF
500 900, 900 is expected by Kansas City

reported as IS per cent more than 1892.
In the great dairy section around
Sheboygan, Wis, a visible business up
turn is noted through an increase in
farm prices. The report from that sec
ton asserts. that "the masses are hope
full and pin their faith In Roosevelt and
the N. r. A.
The report from Wichita, Kans,
summed up the situation in that quar-

tail Buying.

To increased newspaper advertising
is ascribed a prominent part in the
widespread upturn in business, accord
Ing to a survey conducted by Editor
and Publisher.
Other factors cited in the reports,
which were marked by optimism, In
cluded the reopening of closed banks
and the resultant release of millions of
dollars. the civil works program and
other Federal projects which have pro-
duced pay roll increases, and various
Government bonuses being paid in
farm regions.
Virtually every section reported an
improvement in the attitude of the
great masses which. the observers
pointed out, are more hopeful than they
were year ago. In most sections, the

to the improved tone and some localities

in his report that the upturn In retail

but increased lineage that produced

Points to Sale Results.
Citing one of his States largest
stores, this observer declared. that by
using 16 pages Of newspaper advertising
in one day, that retail establishment
made the largest unit sales In It's 81
years Of existence The same store, by
using 48 pages in three days OF this
month exceeded its expectations by
thousands Of dollars"
FROM New York, where the trend was
declared definitely upward" it was
pointed out that both local and national
advertising in the newspapers Is gaining
and that this reflects "a general i'm
provement In attitude on the part Of the
buying public" Another important
factor in the newspaper advertising
nsia !as the sne increasing ms SUCCESS of Quality
offers. which indicates lessening en-
phasis on bargain and price mer-
chandise."
Retail trade in the National Capital
has been on q steady increase since
July" although still somewhat behind
former years, the reports to Editor and
Publisher state. However. a still more
encouraging outlook for Christmas buy
ing here Is seen in the employment Of
thousands Of persons under the civil

Milwaukee observers were optimistic.
