| dency on the part of the maturer married couples to take their vacation separately. Hawthorne cited several instances and stated there was a multiplicity of reasons such as the money consideration, inability of the men folks to get away and the fact some folks believe it a good : thing to take time off their job of | being married. Lakes Are Popular Most of the men folk go to YVis- | consin and Michigan on their vacations, while the women go to California, Hawthorne said. The short vacationists or “two weekers” among the men go to the northern lakes because of the fishing and the short trip, while their fairer companions have more time and prefer the resorts of California anu the eastern coasts. Hawthorne cited a Pendleton man who went to Yellowstone Park. His wife didn't want to take the rougher outing, so she is faiting until winter and she will go to Atlanta. “More business and professional men, particularly doctors, take the vacations alone now than ever before," HawThorne said. “In many cases they send their wives away and then make week-end trips or join them later in the season and’ come home together.” Travel Is light W. S. Christie. 20 E Fifty Third St., agent at the Pennsylvania offices, stated theis year‘was the lightest in the history of the road for vacation travelers. He blamed busses and automobiles. “June, 1923. was the heaviest vacation month in our history, but it has been quiet this year," Christie said. “The 'two-weekers' are heaviest in August because of the hay fever victims in this locality. Christie him self was suffering from a light touch of hay fever. Petoskey for Sneezers “Petoskey, or some other northern resort is the meoca of the hay fever victims." Christie said. Christie declared there was more automobile travel this year than ever before. He told of instances where railroad employes, entitled to passes preferred to make their vacation trips by auto. September travelers are older folks, railroad men say. The young folks prefer the lakes and beaches while their elders like to get to the woods and mountains.

The headquarters are at 204 Fair Eidg. There is no heavy carpet on the floor; no battery of stenographers with clicking machines; there are nc mahogany desks; only one small oil cloth covered table for James Lechler, secretary of the advisory committee. There is no payroll for scores of workers; no one to be “taken care of” in this or that capacity. W. H Allen, also a member of the advisory committee as representative of the Railway Mai, Clerks’ Union, is permanently at headquarters and aids Lechler. Lechler stated that while the La Follette campaign fund is small, it would be adequate. He cited other States, such as Missouri, where $300,000 has been pledged, and New York, where garment workers have raised $400,000 for the La Follette campaign as evidence of the Wisconsin’s Senator’s popularity among laboring classes. Debs Back of La Follette “La Follette will poll 300,000 votes in Indiana,’’ Allen said. “Os course no one, not even the president of the labor federation, can deliver the entire labor vote, but in the case of the railroad workers, La Follette will get 99 per cent.” Lechler stated the Socialist party, under leadership of Eugene V. Debs, Terre Haute, was backing La Follette. “In States where the Socialists j have a recognized ticket. La Follette's name will be on their ballot,” Lechler said. In other States the Socialists will simply vote the La Follette ticket nationally. Progressive senators and congress-! men will be backed by the La Fol- 1 lette boosters such as Huddleston in : Georgia. Couzens in Michigan, Copeland in New York, Washvin Montana and Borah in Idaho. Party lines will be disregarded, Lechler said. Women to Be Active Women in Indiana will also take part in the La Follette organization as soon as the campaign gets under way, Lechler said. There is no La Follette State manager, as has been stated. The entire campaign is to be managed by an advisory committee composed of Lechler, Allen, T. N. Taylor, president of the Indiana j Federation of Labor: A. E. Gordon, Terre Haute, representing locomo tive engineers; J. H. Magill, Valparaiso, representing the national I committee of Forty-eight and H. W. Brown of the International Associa tion of Machinists.
