All rights of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. The Cost of Creel Investigation of the cost of the committee on public information reveals expenditures amounting to $6,000,000. It will require six months to enable the investigating committee to bring a semblance of order out of the accounts. George Creel, it will be recalled, was chairman of the committee. His activity and methods are still fresh in our memories. Some of the revelations show a palpable lack of business methods. Uncashed checks were found lying on the floor of the committee's room, their value mounting into the thousands. "In

$300,000 were discovered," says the Cincinnati Enquirer. "Intelligence is at hand that much money was lost in Russia through being left in Lsanks which were taken over by the Bolshevists, who confiscated their funds. Inquiry reveals the fact that, after the signing of the armistice, the

principal members of the committee promptlyJ

resigned and left its affairs in the hands of irresponsible minor employes. Most astonishing of all is the discovery that orders limiting advances for personal expenses were ignored and huge amounts were paid to attaches and others who hae not yet completely accounted for them." During the war the American press constantly criticised the committee and sought the application of remedial methods, so that the exposures made a year after the signing of the armistice emphasize strongly the truth of the strictures that were made many months ago. T5ie Creel activities never appealed to the American press. They saw no real service performed. The investigation of the expenses of the committee should be pushed to the limit. The committee was very anxious to give the public the tiuth about the war. Now the public is real anxious to get information about the committee.

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK A TALK TO CLERKS A clerk in an office or store is really something more than a mere clerk he or she is a medium thru which the ideals of the concern flow. Thousands of dollars have been lost in an instant by the smallest discourtesy on the part of a clerk! And just as many thousands have been made In that time by attention, pleasantness and tact. Here are a few things that make people glad when they come to buy. Courtesy stands first. Then cheerfulness. Then tact and general intelligence. Of course, one takes for granted that a clerk has mastered the necessary knowledge that is required in t"he position. Marshall Field who founded and built the greatest retail store in the world, was once a clerk! When he died, he left a fortune of over two hundred millions. One of the great things that you notice in buying in that great concern, is the uniform courtesy and neatness and general intelligence of the clerks. Marshall Field believed that it never paid to dispute the claim of a customer. I watched a man as he stepped up to buy an article in a store the other day. The clerk was snappy and Independent and took the attitude that the prospective buyer had no right to ask questions about the thing desired. The gentleman did not buy but walked away without saying a word. No concern, or helper in a concern, ever gets so great or important that courtesy will not pay them. If you run a store in which you have clerks, you cannot be too part.'cular about who you employ. The better you are, the less time you have to serve as a clerk!

factories and shops were driven out of business and the entire industry was compelled to pay tribute, according to Mr. Michaels.

COST OF CLOTHING BLAMED ON UNION

torney, in whose hands were books and records of the organization taken in a raid yesterday on its headquarters. More than $500,000 as "fins" and "settlements" was taken from

clothing manufacturers by the union, the state's attorney's office charged. Agents called strikes for their own gain, it also is alleged. The organization is said to have more than 150,000 members dominating the clothing industry at Chicago, New York and Rochester, N. Y., tho three clothing centers. Various small

TERRE HAUTE. Ind., Nov. 7. It 1 was apparent at the conference of the Indiana coal operators here that they , are determined to follow the lead of the government. The operators, all j of whom are members of the Indiana Bituminous Coal Operators' associa-1

tion, met to hear the report of the scale committee which represented them at the Buffalo and Philadelphia joint wage conferences and the conference with Secretary of Labor Wilson at Washington. The report was presented by P. H. Penna. secretarytreasurer of the organization, who was spokesman for the operators of four

I states in previous meetings.

There were repeated cheers when the operators were told that their committee had accepted the program outlined by the president in its entirety. At the conclusion of the report and after more than twenty operators had spoken in commendation of the manner in which the demands of the miners had been handled the meeting unanimously voted confidence in the committee and approval of what has been done. The committee was continued to handle the further negotiations that will arise without deviation

from the position that has been taken

in the past month.
