| New York-(CNS) - Consumer CO.
operatives in all parts of the country
are making a valiant attempt to stem
the rising tide of initiation as confusion
appeared to ride the waves of Ameri.
cas- temporarily uncontrolled econo
my.
At press time, the most reputable
price indexes in the field indicated
price increases of nearly 20% in the
20 days following the veto of the price
control measure and there is no indi-
cation that the new price control law
will be able to substantially roll
back" these increases.
In Superior, Wis, the Central Co.
operative Wholesale, owned by $4,000
consumers, refused to pass on its local
cooperative associations an increase
in inventory price which would have
added $4,000 to wholesale prices and
proportionately more to retail prices
to consumer members.
Refused to MAKEUP Prices
'In an all out effort to stem the tide
of initiation, Cow as champion of
the consumers cause, did not follow
the established business practice of
marking up prices on stocks on hand
to correspond with those of the gen.
eral market" said operations director
Andrew Marlowe. Cow did business
of S6h million last year and it's as
ISOLATED co-operatives a business of
s25 million.
The Midland Co-operator, speaking
for Midland Cooperative Wholesalers
100000 patron-members declared edi-
torially:
"Co-ops have chance to prove the
reason for their being. To consider
able degree they can hold the price
line themselves and force others to fol-
low suit. They can refuse to handle
goods of poor quality at rugged prices
They can assume the role of watch
dog over prices, quality and supply
that OPA has been forced to drop.
They can establish contacts with new
sources of supply that will spring up
in the free-for-all scramble for mar

late President Franklin D. Roosevelt
who was afflicted with infantile para
lysis but through the facilities of the
famous warm water project at Warn
Springs, Georgia, was able to over
come his affliction to the extent that
he became one of the worlds most
famous statesmen and four times pre-
sident of the United States.
The first pool will be rs by 100
feet and will vary in depth, according
to plans drawn by Fred Brinkman,
Kalispell architect. Specifications for
the pool are identical to the Bruck-

A Living Memorial
Many prominent labor organizations
throughout the west have expressed a
deep interest in the Camp Aqua pro-
ject, both as living memorial to
Franklin ID. Roosevelt and as an
avenue of treatment for afflicted chill
dren in the northwest territory, who
have little or no opportunity to gain
admission to far-away institutions
such as the Warm Springs Founda-
ton. Lumber and Sawmill Workers
organizations in particular are resum-
ing fund raising drives, which were
by last winters lumber

in the vicinity Of Tacoma, Wash, are
understood to have raised a sum of
approximately six thousand dollars.
The Northwestern Council of Lumber
and Sawmill Workers is circulating its
affiliated organizations throughout the
entire Western Lumber Industry to de-
-ermine what other funds are being
held by District Council and Labor
Unions for this nurnose. The Montana

COST OF LIVING is UP
50-603o SINCE WAR
OUTBREAK

Washington.-The majority of items
which figure in the family budget have
increased in cost more than so per
cent since the day the war started
in Europe, the Bureau of Labor Stats
tics reported.
Labor economists, however, consid-
cred the BLA figures much too con-
servative, as there is overwhelming
evidence, they said, that living costs
have risen more than go per cent.
Food, clothing and house furnish
ings costs, which represent 81 per cent
of the budget for wage earners and
moderate income workers in large
cities, are now little over so per
cent higher than In August, 1885," the
bureau reported.

Those who rule American industry
believe in propaganda. They spend
lot of money on it. They get lot of 1T
free. They even get us to pay for II.
The American public put out $SO3,593,-
| 900 last year for newspapers, and for it
got mostly the propaganda that their
employers wanted them to get.
Outstanding propaganda agency of
the ruling class is the National AS
sociation of Manufacturers with its
National Industrial Information Com
mittee. 1t has arranged set-up with
non-union teachers organizations to
use the schools for propaganda, ac-
cording to charges publicly made last
week by Irwin Kuenzli, national sec
rotary of the American Federation OF
Teachers. While the immediate object
of the NAM campaign in the schools
has been to attack OPA and price
ceilings, it couples this with attacks
on unions. Says KuenZli: High pow
cred NAM speakers are appearing in
high schools of the nation expounding
subtle but effective anti-labor and
pro-NAM propaganda Recent is
sues of Trends in Education-Industry
Cooperation, published by the NAM
and circulated widely among teachers,
contain clever cartoons attacking or
ganized labor"

SO8.9O according to the report for 1915
submitted by J. Howard Pew of Sun
Oil and president of its National In
dustrial Information committee.
A breakdown of the expenditures is
Of interest. The largest expense of
course was the 1891, OO7 for research,
administration, regional offices, ETC.,

insist upon their thirty pieces of
silver.

How the rest is expended may indi-
cate the relative Importance attached
to various media of propaganda, but
not necessarily as some agencies for
their own interests do it free.
Chief expense was s465,O73 for "di- |

 fl ABOARD

BURBANK, Calf. Nov. 13-A Western Air Lines DC-3, with II persons aboard, vanished in the storm-shrouded hills north of here today and hours later both ground and air searchers were stalled by weather.
 The plane, enroute to Lockheed Air Terminal from Salt Lake City, reported in over Newhall, an air traffic check point, at 3:24 am.
 The pilot gave his altitude as 5000 feet. Thirteen minutes later, indicating nothing amiss, he asked the control tower for landing in- structions.
 The normal approach route is through a pass, flanked by 2200- foot peaks, and it was feared the craft was slightly off course in driving rain and snow flurries. Western Air said the gas supply would have geen exhausted by ' am.
 Capt. Garrell Miller, 34, Van Nuys. Calf, was the pilot.

 speaking of Alaska's housing shortage, Mrs. Hermann said the situation in Southeast Alaska was far less acute than that in the Westward part of the Territory.
 "A lady recently asked me what on earth all the 200 employees of Alaskas OPA were going to do when their jobs disappeared out from under them This is typi- cal misunderstanding of OPA whose bread shoulders have taken and can take a great amount of criti- cism. Never has the OPA main- tained a 200-person personnel in Alaska. At our peak we had only 63 employees. During our four and a half years work we have madt a sincere effort to hold price lines 10 those during stated period for the welfare of the consumer Now we are turning the price guardianship job back to you None of us are worried about our jobs we are worried about you"

Too Much Baseball

There was a good deal Of talk,
during the recent series, about how
baseball is extending its playing sea-
son deep into footballs brief weeks.
Then too, there's the matter Of trav-
cling.
We were wondering what would
happen in the future when Los An
geles or San Francisco had to face
Boston or Brooklyn.
A world series that rolls back and
forth from ocean to ocean could be
much worse than this shift from ST.
Louis to Boston and back.
The Mississippi isn't nearly as far
away from the Atlantic ocean as the
Pacific ocean is.
The main fact is that baseball Is
crowding much too far into the foot
ball season.
Naturally, baseball magnates
can't see II that way. They have
failed to realize that football is
now as much of a major sport as
baseball ever was, or ever will be.
If series happens to run into a
day or two of rain, those who follow
both baseball and football see their
first football game around midsea-
son. This doesn't happen to make
any sense. Baseball gets its start
back in February. 1t has at least
a six months span. Football only
asks for two and half months.

sions far more people are turned
away than the number of those ad-
mitted.
The Red Sox office in Boston told
me that, with room enough, the Bos-
ton seat sale for the World Series
would have passed the 500, 900 mark.
This means that about 80 per cent
Of the ticket applicants were turned
away.
Army feels confident that it could
have played before more than ESQ.,
900 at Ann Arbor, if Michigan had
a 100000 stadium, and just as GER
tain it could play before close to
million in the Notre Dame game.
Unfortunately, when earlier stands
were built no one saw the POSSIBLE
ties of any such public demand.
Certainly New York didn't, where
there is no such bowl as SO many
other cities have.
Los Angeles can handle l03,00 at
her Municipal stadium, with Pasa-
dena only few miles away, able
to put away over 10000 With Santa
Anita and Hollywood set for rae
ing, Los Angeles is well in front
so far as accommodations for the
human frame are concerned.
Philadelphia and Chicago have

NAL stadium and Soldier field.

Ne,U YOrk's Big Parks

But their ball parks are too mea-
ger, along with so many other
cities.
The Yankees have the only ball
park that can seat 10000 fans. Polo
grounds and Briggs stadium are
about on a par at $1,000. Outside
of these places, few ball parks can
seat more than $4,000 with any COM
fort. Public interest in sport. al
most every variety of sport, has
grown far beyond seating or even
standing space. They can handle
far bigger crowds in England and
Scotland because hillsides often are
used. In the matter of football or
baseball, it is difficult to build sta
diums that could handle more than
10000 or possibly l25, 900 spectators.
When crowds reach or pass these
marks, too many spectators are too
far away from the scene of conflict
or contest. But there Is vast room
for improving conditions, where
space too often is much too limited.
The Michigan stadium at Ann Arbor
leads all strictly college facilities
with room for slightly ever $4,000
spectators. With over 100000 appli-
cations for the Army-Michigan
game, you can see how inadequate
this is.
Just what will be done about the
situation is story for the future.

many a sigh in thinking of all the
