ton of war production in var
time as a result of this dispute?"
LEWIS CHISELING
The vote was asked by District
so in disputing the right of the
CLIO Farm Equipment Union to
represent the 100 workers en-
ployed at the two Allis- Chalmers
plants, in spite of the fact that
the CLIO had previously won an
NLRB election and had signed a
contract with the company, eff
fective to April Is, 1914.
Officials of the CLIO union
quoted an NLRB representative
here as saying that the strike vote
would not change the fact that
the Farm Equipment Workers has
been certified as sole bargaining
agency and that no new election
could be held until after the ex-
piration of the present contract
now in effect.
The day before the strike vote
was taken, the War Labor Board
approved a five-cent hourly in
crease in the rate of minimum
pay at Allis- Chalmers, bringing
it up to 81 cents, CLIO officials
here said.
The board also ordered the plant
to pay women pay equal to that
received by men for the same kind
of work. AS there are some 800
employed in the two plants, union
officials pointed out that this
would mean an additional sub
stantial pay increase.
The strike vote at Allis- CHAIN
ers was taken following an opin-
ion handed down last week by
Attorney General Francis Biddle,
holding that a minority group in
a plant had a right to petition for
such a vote.

What Does It Cost?

Well, you may say, hat all
sounds very good, but car I af-
ford it? How much does it cost?
The program is financed by fed
eral funds (from the Lanham act)
the Community War Chest of Day.
ton and Montgomery County, and
fees paid by parents.
Maximum cost of a child is $1.00
per day. If it is impossible for a
mother to pay this sum, especially
where there may be several chill
dren attending, the matter will be
discussed on a basis of income
and the cost of living. Enrolment
of a child in an Extended School
Service Center may cost from 35c
to Soc per day.

Blaming the disruptive activ-'
tiles of the United Mine Workers
District SO for most of the con-
fusion of the workers, Cakes said
that the union doubted that the
workers intended to strike. He
called upon the CLIO and all labor
to bring united pressure to bear
against shutting down war pro-
duction at the plant which is max
ing armored vehicles for the army.
The balloting conducted by the
National Labor Relations Board
under the terms of the Smith
Conally law resulted in a vote of
1905 for, to 1856 against authoriz-
ing a strike. The ballot read: do

This explodes the statement often
heard among farm people that the
reason tractors and other farm
machinery is so high priced is be-
cause labor is paid such high
wages.
This is according to the report
made in a speech made by Muir

Bureau of Ohio at the recent con-
ference of the UAW-CIO held
August 4 and S in Detroit.

everything that ears could tell. But
Paddy didn't trust to his ears alone.
Ali the time he was swimming his
nose was busy testing the air for
all the faint smells that wandering
little Night Breezes brought out
from the shore. Presently, as he
drew near the bank his nose was
tickled with just the faintest of
smells. Your nose or mine wouldn't
have smelled it at all. Paddy
stopped swimming for just second
and tested the air very carefully.
Then he grinned and at once swan
on toward the bank. He knew that
some one was on the bank and he
knew just who that some one was.
His nose told him.
Peter Rabbit is sitting up there
somewhere" thought he. Il sus-

and is planning to try to scare me. :"
Paddy chuckled and turned 50 as to
follow that faint smell.
AS he drew in to the bank that
smell was stronger. That wonder
full nose of his told him exactly
where it came from. He couldn't
see Peter because 1t was too dark.
Besides, Peter was hiding behind a
little hemlock tree. He couldnt t
hear Peter because Peter didn't
make even the teeniest, weeniest
sound. But he didn't need to either
see or hear Peter to know he was
there, and exactly where he was
So the instant after he had climbed
out on the bank ne quite took Pc

Peter Rabbit"

guessed right away how they had
done it.
Paddy laughed and then he told
Peter about his wonderful nose and
how he depended on 1t to keep him
safe. Then they sat down for =
visit. Peter told Paddy all about
his sickness and all the nice things
that had happened. Then Paddy
told Peter all the news of that part
of the Green Forest, how Mr..
Quack had wholly recovered and
was as well and strong as ever, and
how so far nothing had happened
to any of the little Quacks, although
Hooty the Owl tried every night to
catch one of them.
There he is now!" exclaimed
Paddy. IT must give the Quacks
warning" Sure enough, a big
shadow swept silently through the
moonlight over the pond. It was
Hooty the Owl. Paddy slipped down
to the water. Slap! His broad tail
struck the water like the report of
pistol. They will know what that
means" chuckled Paddy as he came

Yes, sir, that Is what my wish

or Buster Bear, or Paddy the Beaver.
When Paddy swan out from his

where Peter was sitting on the bank.

He wasn't. thinking Of any one In

Richland Landowners
Given Brighter Hopes
BY National Officials

Richland-A slight ray of hope
which later might develop into a
financial benefit was seen by land
owners and representatives of the
Richland irrigation district when
they conferred with a party of
men from the procurement divis-
ion of the United States Army
Monday and Tuesday.
Through insistent and continued
efforts of this districts representa-
tive in congress and the local peo-
pie George E. Fuller, assistant to
Col. O'Brien, and 1t. Col. Byrne
were sent here from Washington
to give due consideration to the
details in connection with the TAX
ing over of the Richland Irrigation
District as cooperative organiza-
ton which is now functioning.
They assured the Richland land
owners and officials of the district
that they would make an appraisal
of the entire irrigation system and
it's facilities and water rights and
that any dividends accruing there
from would be made available to
individual landowners after all
debts, bonds and other outstand-
ing accounts against the district
had been retired. Further the
Washington men stated that there
would definitely be no deductions
from the present appraisal prices
on the land on account of out
standing irrigation and school
bonds.
Local men were pleased with the
attitude displayed and information
given out by Mr.. Fuller and Col
O'Byrne. Since their conferences
with them they feel that there is
a possibility that each individual
landowner will receive another
sum of money in addition to his
appraisal price to reimburse him
for his proportionate equity in the
irrigation system. Other very de-
sirable information was the fact
that the Washington officials stat
ed that all legal means were being
exercised to speed up payments to
Individual landowners.
Mr. Fuller and Col. O'Byrne
expressed keen desire to keep
the irrigation system intact and
keep all the land under it green
except.that which was being torn
up for construction. This they in
sisted would mean that all land
outside of the present hot spot
or Red Area must be kept in pro-
duction. -.
