Serting that it was found imprac-
ticable to permit a full holiday
today.
Few Show Up at AAA
Despite this, only a handful Of
employees reported for work in
the AAA section in the old Post
Office building, where about
5000 work, and they were almost
Immediately granted the days
leave.
Similar situations were occa-
stoned at the State Department,
the Department Of Agriculture,
and the Federal Emergency Relief
Administration. In each Of these
places, also, orders granting leave
today had been reScinded, but all
employees were at their posts this
morning.
At the State Department the
reason for resembling the order
was that it twas felt that it would
not be the proper thing to do" to
release the workers.
At the FERA the reason given
for resembling the order was that
some additional rush work de-
veloped which had to be done
today.
E. Claude Babcock, president Of
the American Federation Of Gov
eminent Employees. asserted the
basis for resembling the orders ZAP
parently came from the White

For Strikers AsSaiIed
By international News Service

BY international News Service
The Administrators policy Of
extending relief to the strikers
and their families came under fire
today from Henry I. Hartman,
president of the United States
Chamber Of Commerce.
He pointed out the benefits al
ready attained by the workers un-
der the textile code, and asked:
"Sh0uld the Federal Govern
ment be placed in the position
Of indirectly financing the &C
tivltieS Of labor organizations in
their efforts to bring about COM
plete uniOniIation Of industry?
"This strike call, II generally
obeyed, will be a serious threat
to the peaceful settlement Of
other disputes between employer
and employee, under the orderly
processes set up by NRA. The
strike leaders are making much
Of the argument that strikers
can rely for support during the
strike upon Federal relief funds"
MACON, Ca, Sept. 1 U.N.S)

ton textile workers were under ar.
rest here today following two days

100000 workers that strike &C.
ton would indefinitely defer
wage increases.
SERIOUS Threat" Seen
2. Henry I. Hartman, presi-
dent Of the United States
Chamber Of Commerce, declared
that general concurrence by the
workers in the strike call would
constitute "a serious threat" to
peaceful settlement Of other
labor disputes under the aegis
Of the NRA.
3. Manufacturers in Paterson,
N. j., center Of the nations silk
production, issued q surprise
ultimatum to their workers that
q sympathetic walkout in con.
nection with the textile strike
would mark a definite end to
labor negotiations through union
representatives In that area.
4. Throughout the production
centers in the Eastern area, mill
operators continued to discount
effectiveness of the strike.
Union leaders, eanwhile,
pressed steadily ahead with
plans for picket lines ct the
various plants.

traitor johnson nor President
Roosevelt took official cogni-
zance of the threatening situa-

spoken textile labor leader in
direct charge Of strike plans,
called a conference to deter
mine whether 100000 workers
in the silk indu:-try would -e

Red Menace Feared
On one point the opposing fac
tionS appeared in agreement
the necessity of striking quickly
at any attempt of communistic
forces to wreSt control of the
workers from their constituted
leaders.
With mill operators rushing
guards, strikebreakers and sup
plies to strategic spots, union
leaders warned their followers to
avoid all association with Com
muniSt factions.

VICE PRESIDENT SILENT ON MOVE AS ARGUMENTS
 ARE PRESENTED

AUSTIN, Tex. - Division of Tex as, biggest state in the Union, again is under lively discussion. Vice Pres ident John N. Garner, original ad- vocate of dividing Texas, is silent now, but the West Texas Chamber of Commerce has presented argu- ments, for and against, in it's official publication.
 Legally the division is possible and may be accomplished with sim plicity. Practically no one expects it within a quarter of century at the least.
 When the giant state, four times bigger than all New England, was admitted to the Union, there was 8 provision that new States not ex- ceeding four may with the consent of Texas be fashioned out of the tel ritory and be entitled to admission

SHOWS A LARGE
 a PROFIT IN COLD DREDCE WORK

SAN FRANCISCO The net pro- fit for August reported by the Ma. tomas Company amounted to $82,- 593 after depreciation and provi- sion for income taxes. The July pro fit was $737, 300 and the June profit $82,945, similarly figured. The Aug ust profit brought the totala flor the first eight months of 1884 to $610 947, or equivalent to Gle share The stock is on a 60c yearly divid- end basis.
 Natomas operates six dredges in Sacramento county, California and recently acquired. substantial in terest in a property in Merced coun- ty where dredge is to be construct ed. In addition the company has UT der construction a new and larger dredge to operate in Sacramento county, which is expected to iS- crease dredging capacity 4,000, ,00C yards yearly. In 1883 the company handled about l8,0OO,0OO yards oi gold-bearing gravel.
 Natomas is also reported to have near completion transaction foi purchase of the Cole-Kirchen anc Donald placer mines near Manhat. tan, Nev.
 During recent years the com. pany's costs per yard of earth hanc led have steadily declined, the aver age of 4.37c yard for 1893 being l.24c under the 1880 average of 5 Gle. This factor, in connection witt the increased price paid for gold makes it possible to dredge land which could not be worked profit ably at previous levels ofscosts sant returns.

TEXAS CHAMBER NOW PUSHING PLAN DIVIDE
 THE STATE OF TEXAS

Present agitation is merely for creation of one new state to be known as West Texas"
 As Vice President Garner ex- plains the situation, this can be done merely by act of the legisla- ture. The difficulty will be to get a majority of the legislature favor able to the division.
 Any dividing line separating the state into East and West portions naturally have the Tooth Meridcia1 as it northern starting point. That is the Meridian that separates the Texas Panhandle from Oklahoma. Extended through the site the Meri dian strikes the Rio Grande west of Laredo. Used as a dividing line it would place only about a third of the area of Texas in West Texas"
 The western territory would have only about IS members of the Tex as House of Representative and three Senators or one-tenth, instead of one-half, of the votes.

AMERICAN HUMANE ASSOCIATION WORKS
 FOR BETTER TRAPS

ALBANY, N. Y. = For the eighth consecutive year The American Hu- mane Association of this city an nounces it's annual humane trap contest which will close April 30, 1885. The contest is open to every one and contestants are urged to write the Association for further de tails.
 The judges, eminent men in the field of conservation, will award six prizes totalling five hundred dollars Prizes of $15O.00 and $75.00 will be given for the best traps for taking animals alive and unhurt. For traps of the leg-gripping type, hold ing without injury, the prizes will be $1O0.0O and $500O and for traps of the killing type the prizes are $85.00 and $4O00.
 It is not the purpose of the Asso- ciation to paralyze trapping, b.t rather to al.aN iate Ire suffering If wild life. Humane traps are being used by trappers to good advantage. They find that unnarrei peHs are more easily mark table aud for ani- mals trapped 1or the purpose of ),ro- rogation the alive and unhart type of trap is invaluable.
 Legislators and conservation bod ies throughout the country are CO., |operating with this movement. They realize that not only does the wild life merit consideration but that from a commercial standpoint the belts themselves assume an increas- ed value through the use of humane trapping.
 For this 1easo1 the Association favors the alive and unhurt type of trap. The trap itself IS easily car- r'ed and when the anlmal 1t talfel, the pelt is lm;narred l'y the vicious jaws of tEe steel trap. By this meth d there is no useless killing of un- Santed animals.
 Get your trap ready TOW and write Inc Association for an entry blank and further particulars.

The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1934-05-31

been around 700 head daily. Ar
mour and Swift have government
orders for hogs and some smaller
orders were placed in the hands of
smaller buyers at the start of the
program. Orders called for fair to
choice grades averaging 140 to 100
pounds, and the prices late last
week ranged largely from $2.75 to
$3.50 per cwt.
The big increase in government
buying has been interpreted by
some as an attempt to force prices
up on hogs. For the past twelve
weeks the market has declined and
prices paid farmers today are more
than $1.00 per cwt. below a year
ago. Top hogs at South st. Paul
late last week brought $3.40. A year
ago the top was $3.50. More orders
on the market, whether it be from
the government or from packers,
will naturally inject strength into
the trade.
Since January 1, it is estimated
that the government has purchased
up to 5000 hogs for relief agen-
cies. Besides this. the Federal sur
plus relief corporation bought 49,.
600 hogs last November. Including
the pigs and sows purchased last
fall, Uncle Sam has bought more
than 100000 hogs in the last nine
months.
