It Is obvious that means of life can not be plentiful unless production is adequate and there la therefore a plentiful supply available for such dis-
tribution."
■'While the close of the war TCund America tending to run short of clothing and housing, and behind in its program of highways and transportation facilities." it adds, "it is a remarkable truth that we passed through the war period with a general tendency toward considerable increase In our production of food. It Is also true that we were under the necessity of supplying large quantities of food to our allies; but we nevertheless, thanks to a magnificent agricultural program came out of the war without serious shortage of food

SEVEN REM OPERATORS ON STRIKE ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH PICKETING AND OFFENDING PATRONS.
ALL THEATERS ARE OPEN
Seven moving picture machine operators participating in the strike of union operators in all the theaters of the city were arrested Friday night by the police on charges of vagrancy anfi, offending persons in public places. The seven men are alleged to have been doing "picket" duty In front of downtown theaters and making remarks to persons who were entering the theaters. The men arrested gave their names as Harry Lewis, age thirty-five, SOI South State street; Fred Slater, twenty, 324 Lin wood avenue; Frank Stark, twenty-six, 29 Oven street; Peter Kesterson, twenty-five, 734 Sanders street; G. V. Furman, nineteen, 304 Linwood avenue; Ray Marshall, twenty-three, 3102 East Michigan street, and Walter Keaterson, twenty-two, 861 Sanders street. All of the men were released Immediately after their arrest on bonds provided by members of the operators’
union.
Nonunion Man Removed. The Bijou theater, 130 East Washington street, was entered by two men late Friday afternoon, who took from the picture booth the nonunion operator who had taken the place of a striking operator a* the theater. Harry Klene, manager ot the theater, told the police the two men knocked over the projecting machine. The theater is owned by Edward G. Sourbier, county treasurer. John Benner, business agent of the local operators’ union, said stich acts of violence did not have the approval of the union. ( Practically all of the movie theaters In the city continued In operation Friday afternoon find night after the operators had walked out at 3 p. m., the hour set for the strike in the event the members of the Exhibitors' Association did not concede the men’s demand for a new wage scale of SI an hour. Nonunion operators were placed at the machines in nearly all the theaters and in most caseg the delay caused bv the strike lasted only a few minutes. The theater owners said they had about twenty hours’ notice of the coming strike and were enabled to prepare for the emer-
gency.
Signed Under Protest Officials of the union said the owners of twelve neighborhood theaters had agreed to sign the new wage scale agreement under protest and in making this concession they were entitled to the use of union operators in their theaters, j These theaters that were supplied with j union operators were the Savoy, the | Hilltop, the Garfield, the Prospect, the Scenic, the Strand, the Mecca, the Two j Johns, the Jewel, the Castle, the Orient-1 al and the Idle Hour. wage scale ' from $19.SO I w v- ww-,-. —they declare ' that the new scale of $1 an hour sought | by the men would practically double the wages of many of the operators. Both sides in the controversy charge the other with breaking a contract entered into two years ago in which the wage scale that has been prevailing was agreed on. The operators say the members of the exhibitors’ association violated the terms of the contract by employing nonunion operators. The theater owners assert that the operators are making this statemet as an excuse for their breaking the agreement. They say the operators in nearly all the theaters had bean told that they would receive increased wages beginning next
week.
Gustave Schmidt, city councilman and an official of the Central Amusement Company, said the exhibitors* association would not grant the demands of j the strikers. Circle Statement. The manager of the Circle theater In a statement today said: "The sudden
LOS ANGELES, August 3S.-Condi-tions were nearer normal than for ten days, so far as railroad transportation was concerned in southern California today. With the engineers, conductors, firemen and a majority of the yardmen and brakemen pledged to return to work, after their ■trike in sympathy with striking employes of the Pacific electric lines, railroad officials arranged to move trains on virtually normal schedules. The men decided to return at meetings held last night, the engineers, conductors and firemen agreeing first to follow any action taken by the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, which included the yardmen and brakemen. and the latter group in a stormy session later voted to resume work this morning. Some Vote Not to Return. A part of those attending the meeting voted not to return to work and held a further meeting. A. F. Whitney, international vice-president of the Brotherhoos of Railway Trafhmen. who addressed the meeting, declared, however, that the proportion of union men failing to return would be negligible. The vote of the meeting also operated to call back to work members of the "big four'* railway brotherhoods on strike at San Bernardino and Bakersfield, who had agreed to follow whatever action the men took here. - Striking railroad employes at Fresno and San Francisco returned to work yesterday. Admittedly the situation at Barstow was serious, men there at last reports having refused to obey the orders of the international officers. Train# M.oving Westward. The railroad administration officials, however, counted on moving trains through that point. Trains delayed as far east as Albuquerque, N. M.. were moving westward this morning and the general feeling of railroad men here was that any men who remained out would be too few in number to affect conditions materially.
we suggested that the president of the Central Labor Union of Indianapolis j
should arbitrate the matter. This was i-_.« likewise refused. I James

demand of the motion picture operators came to us as a complete surprise. We have at no time had any differences with the union and have always paid a wage considerably above the scale. When we received our notice of the impending strike we immediately got in touch with the committee of the union and suggested that our operators remain at work and that whenever the new wage scale was agreed on we would be glad to pay it if we were not
>already paying more than that amount
and that we would also let the new scale apply beginning August 29. "This the union refused to do and called out our operators with the others in the city. We did our best to bring about arbitration between the employers and employes but this was refused bv the union. We did not even have the chance to give the matter of the wage increase careful consideration and were therefore forced to let our employes wjdfc out and continue to operate our theater without them. We, of course, regret that this situation has arisen but our theater wHl not close for a minute and will give its regular performances.”
At the Colonial.
Harry Cohen, of the Colonial theater, also issued a statement. He said: "We pay our operators a higher wage than the union scale and have always been glad to meet with them and discuss their needs. The demand of the union gave us no such opportunity, but arbitrarily insisted on a wage scale to be met within lees than twenty-four hours after the notice was served on us. We conferred with the authorized committee of the union and offered to submit the matter to arbitration. We suggested that we would be willing to let an international officer of the motion picture operators’ union act as arbitrator and a this was declined by the union

An Odd Suggestion From time to time the mail brings us suggestions for advertising purposes. The majority of these come from enthusiastic users of Herpicide.* A recent one-dwelling upon the great possibilities for business in Russia-is so unusual that we publish excerpts from it: M Why don’t you distribute free of charge a few thousand gallons of Newbro’s Herbicide in Russia and employ barbers to apply it?” “My idea is that an army, of American barbers supplied with hair clippers, would soon put an end to the chaos in Russia.” “Sampson became normal followmg a hair cut and the Populist party was clipped off by western barbers.” Continuing, our correspondent lays down this broad, general rule: . “Wherever women cut their hair short and men wear long shaggy hair, the whole bunch is on its way back to the stone age.” We submit all this for what it is worth, but we do feel certain that the great army of Herpicide users as a class, are reasonably considerate of and kindly digposed to others. We believe that the men who use Herpicide are given more to labor than to controversy and we doubt if there is a soap box orator among them. That the women users of Herpicide are rational and exceptionally attractive is known and recognized by everyone. “More Power to Herpicide” * herpicide eradicate* dandruff, stop* itching elf scalp, retards hair loss and beautifies the bur. Herpicide is almost indispensable to those who strive for ccatp cleanliness. Send tea cents in stamps or coin for large nmple. Addreu: The Herpicide Company, Dept 181-A, Detroit, Mich.
