Under the caption. “Facts are not Debatable.” the Employers’ Association of Chicago in a service letter points out that it is "startling with what clearness this youth states, not only conditions that exist today but also the issue arising from these conditions. The article says in part: "He begins by pointing out that racketeering is spreading right through America to an alarming degree. He takes Chicago as his example and states that there are 1.300 gangs operating in Chicago and that these gangs operate no fewer than seventy different rackets. He states that in various ways, these rackets make a direct levy op. the pocket of every resident within the city—men, women and children —of $45 a head. "It is very , interesting and somewhat suggestive of how youth views our present situation. We congratulate John Plummer on his masterly address and fiope that when he speaks next year, it will be in an atmosphere which demonstrates that the forces of law and order still control the situation—forces which, we believe and trust, will have crushed gangland in the interval.”

COST OF FOOD SHOWN IN RAP AT 25-CENT PAY Evansville Labor Leader Supports Charge of •Starvation Wage.' By Times Special \ EVANSVILLE, Ind., May 2 Charges of the Central Labor Union of Evansville that 25 cents an hour is a starvation wage are backed by government statistics, according to Frank Marvnell, president of the union. Quoting from a report of the United States bureau of home economics, which recently announced the results of a study of food costs. $8.65 was set as the cost of food per week for a family of five persons. Marynell points out that at 25 cents an hour, a man working eight hours a day, six days weekly, would earn only sl2. Aftec paying the cost of food for a family of five, he would have but $3.35 a week left to meet all other expenses—rent, light, heat, clothing and the like. Aside from its bearing on the wage question, the diet report states that many families do not utilize fully the money spent for food, as even those in good circumstances are prone to buy the wrong kind. Children under 2 years of age should have at least a quart of milk daily, while older ones should have a pint, and adults from one to two quarts weekly, the report states. Cereals and eggs are recommended for steady use, as are potatoes and one other vegetable. Fish or other meat should be served three or four times weekly, and on other days cheese, beans, pea or bean stew are recommended. The diet was evolved for use *by farmers and their families in drought districts and by the unemployed.
