Minton said. "The American Federation of Labor reports show that 4.120,000 persons went back to work in the first year of the NRA. Emergency employment was found for 1,500,000, which brings the total to more than 5,000,000 who have gone back to work at honest wages.” Defense of (iov. Paul V.

The report showed the per capita debt for the two-year period was $55.94. Civil cities showed the largest indebtedness with a total ot' $46,315,859.62. Os the amount, $45,. 748,638.87 was bonded debts, and the remainder temporary indebtedness such as temporary loans and anticipation loans prior to collection of taxes. The total school city debt was $39,447,312.83, of which $39,365,829.65 was bonded indebtedness. The second highest indebtedness was that of the 92 counties which owed a total of $39,549,806.10. Approximately 85 per cent of that ligure was bonded indebtedness. The remainder represented chiefly poor relief notes.

Davis read a statement by John Hartford, A. & P. president, to the effect that the company had been forced to closfe its stores and throw'2,ooo employes out of work because municipal authorities stood by and let pickets destroy food supplies. The mayor said: “That's not true. The , police department was authorized to detail half its force of cruisers to the job, and 50 men under deputy inspector William McMaster were kept in readiness for any call from the A. & P. company.” Tiie big chain store company, which preferred to withdraw from an area that was grossing $20,000,000 a year rather than submit to organized labor's demand for a closed shop, today went steadily about the task of dismantling its huge organization here.

Know Your Groceries * DID you know that the speed with which a bread dough rises depends to a great extent upon the kind of flour that is used? Did you know that the way coffee is roasted is as important in producing fine uniform flavor as careful blending? Did you know that some shortenings can impart a delicious delicate flavor to the foods in which they are used? As a matter of fact there is some very important information to be had regarding the groceries you use day after day. It is information that will guide you in improving the taste-appeal of the food you prepare. And by using this information in buying groceries, you will realize that there’s genuine, tangible economy in paying for quality. The storekeeper hasn’t the time to tell you about the different characteristics of staples such as flour, sugar, spices, and butter. Or cereals. Or coffee. Or beverages. But you can find these facts yourself — right in your newspaper—in the advertisements. l ake time to read these advertisements.

Boy stouts will assist police officers in enforcing this regulation and citizens are asked to cooperate by observing this ruling.
