Columbus. — Bartholomew County Grange, the largest in Indiana, passed a number of resolutions defining the attitude of farmers on public questions. One demands legislation that would exclude from American shores all undesirable foreigners; another approved deportation of all reds, nihilists, communists, bolshevik! and other radicals. Other resolutions condemned the teaching of „any foreign language; called for pure Americanism, with one system of schools, one language and one flag; opposed the re-enactment of the daylight saving law, and pledged farmers to fight it; demanded recognition of the agricultural class and ap’polntment of genuine agricultural men on boards where agricultural interests are involved, and opposed the six-hour day. Winchester. —A petition has heen filed to dredge White river from a point three miles east of Winchester to Farmland, a distance of ten miles. It is proposed to drain 25,000 acres of land and the rights of way of the Big Four, Pennsylvania and Union Traction railways are affected. White river has its source six miles south of Winchester, and four miles of it was made a county drainage system six years ago. It is said that the petition will be fought vigorously by farmers affected. Marion. —The Jonesboro post of the American legion has. gone on record as opposing the Indiana state primary law, as being “dangerous to our great state and county governments.” The use of money by candidates in elections, beyond a reasonable extent, is also condemned by the post, which says: “We are prone to return to the days of the pomp and pride of Rome, when the emperorship was sold at auction, and the publicans received corn, oil and wine for their votes.” Indianapolis. — A number of replies to the letters sent by Governor Goodrich to the Republican members of the state legislature in regard to their views on a special session of the assembly have been received at the governor's oflice. Governor Goodrich said that he will give the matter his attention as soon as all the replies are on file. The governor did not discuss the contents of the letters that have been received. Crown Point. —Falling in line with many other counties in the state in adopting revised salary schedules for teachers the Lake . county, township trustees have decided on a new scale here for next year. The new minimum salary is $720 for new teachers in the elementary grades and ranges from that sum to a minimum of $1,170 for seventh-year class C teachers. The schedule affects only teachers in rural and small town schools. Connersville.—lndications here are that’ the making of maple sugar and sirup in Fayette is to become a thing of the past. Very few trees will be tapped this year, and the output of sugar and surup will not, in any case, more than satisfy local needs. The rea- ; son for the falling off in the industry, farmers say, is that there is no time to spend tapping the trees and gathering the sap. Hammond. —Final negotiations are being completed between the United States Housing corporation and local property owners for the transfer and sale of the housing corporation’s sl,000,000 housing project, built during the war to house employees at work on . the government’s $5,000,000 ordnance contract, given the Standard Steel car plant here. The property provides for 200 families. Portland. —Ernest Smith of the state entomologist’s office, following a general Inspection of shade trees in this city, has reported to the secretary of the Commercial association that Port-, land’s beautiful shade trees are doomed, unless immediate action is taken to save them from the ravages of cottony maple scale and oyster bark louse.

Shaver Canning company, which have been In the hands of a receiver, have been sold as follows: Lippincott company, Cincinnati, 0., the plants situated at Boonville for $50,000, and at Tennyson for $3,800; L. C. Hammell of Circleville, 0., representing Huntingburg persons; the plants at Huntingburg, Jasper and Dale for $33,000; John Kemp, Dubois, the plant at Dubois for $1,200. The total sales aggregated SBB,OOO. It Is not known what the receivership will pay out. The canning company failed because the government refused to to take, its commandeer order of 45 per cent of the 1918 pack of tomatoes, following the armistice. The Lippincott company will operate the Boonville plant ail year. Washington, D. C. —Enoch H. Crowder, who served as provost marshalgeneral during the world war, in a final statistical report to the secretary of war, shows that the total registration of men liable to military duty in Indiana was 639,834. This was 2.68 per cent of the registration for the entire country. Os this number, 23.79 S registered as eighteen years of age, 436,203 registered as between nineteen and thirty-six and 180,032 registered as between thirty-seven and forty-five. The inductions into the service in the state under the selective draft law was 77,440. Os the number 73,048 weqe accepted on final examination and 3,828 were rejected. New Albany.—An increase of 50 per cent in wages is asked by the teachers, principals and supervisors in the New Albany public school in resolutions submitted to the board of education by the New Albany Teachers’ federation. The federation also asks that teachers be appointed and salaries fixed before May 15 and that the time for signing contracts be extended to August 15. In addition to the salary increase the teachers ask a bonus of one month’s salary at the close of the school year. Indianapolis.—The necessity of a “blue sky” law in Indiiina was shown rhe Marion county grand jury in a report submitted to Judge James A. Collins of the criminal court. No indictments were returned by rhe jury, but a recommendatiqn was made that a “blue sky” law be passed by the session of the legislature, and attention was called to the difficulty under present laws of the state to bring charges against persons or firms who are engaged in the sale of questionable stock. Seymour.—Belief that certain parts of the state tax law should be explained more fully before any effort Is made to amend them was expressed at a meeting of the members of the legislative committee representing the southern Indiana districts of the Indiana Federation of Farmers’ Assocla* tions held in this city. A recommendation that the state board of tax commissioners give more information will be filed with the state legislative committee of 'the federation. Shelbyville.—Farmers of Moral, Brandywine and Sugar Creek townships, Shelby county, at a joint meeting at Fairland, voted approval of the plan of the United States Grain corporation to credit Armenia and other nations in the near east suffering from hunger, with 50,000,000 bushels of wheat. The farmers of these townships also have decided to buy their binder twine from the Indiana state prison. Lafayette.—As the result of a meeting held here by representative farmers of eight counties in this part of the state, the commission men of the Lafayette stockyards announced that they will provide Improved facilities for the handling of live stock. The farmers had presented an ultimatum to them giving notice that, unless Improvements were made, they would organize a co-operative live stock shipping association. Laporte. —Teachers in the public schools of Laporte will receive a substantial increase in salaries. The Laporte city school board took another step in advance, when at a recent meeting it voted a 20 per cent increase on yearly salaries of the teachers for the next school year. Last summer the board increased salaries between 25 and 30 per cent. The new raise therefore makes the total increase about 50 per cent. Indianapolis’—Confidence that ratification of the woman suffrage amendment will be complete in time for the women of Indiana to vote in the coming primary election is expressed in a telegram Governorj Goodrich has received from Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, honorary president of the National League of Woman Voters. Hammond—Walter Hardy, judge of the Lake county superior court here, issued orders that foreigners seeking naturalization papers should study for the examination under English speaking instructors. The order* came when applicants for citizenship papers answered questions with blank stares. The fact that the men could not understand English caused considerable delay in.the court work.

WORKS COUNCILS CLOSELY STUDIED NATIONAL INDUSTRIAL CONFERENCE BOARD REPORTS WHAT IT HAS LEARNED. TOO SOON FOR CONCLUSIONS Generally, It Is Found, These Committees Have Good Effect on Labor Conditions but *Do Little to Increase Productive Efficiency. By JAMES P. HORNADAY. Washington.—A recent study on ivtwks councils in the United States by the national industrial conference board, furnishing another evidence of the widespread interest in plans for representation of employees in industry, covers 176 companies or corporations having works councils in 225 different industrial plants, affecting approximately 500,000 workers. In addition to those plans created as a result of awards of the national war labor board, the shipbuilding labor adjustment board, and other government agencies, there are 105 which were voluntarily put in operation by employers. The term “works council” which has not been generally adopted in this country, was determined upon, the report states, as being more definite and exact than that of “shop committee” which has been commonly used. Owing to the comparatively brief experience of nearly all the existing committees, no recommendation as to the establishment of works councils is made in the report, which gives a brief account of their development from the comparatively recent date of 1904, when the first known example of a works committee was formed. The report makes a distinction between the principle of collective dealing by employees of individual establishments with their employers and collective bargaining, which involves recognition of labor unions as organizations, and states that the institution of works councils includes acceptance of the former principle only. How They Are Distributed. A tabulation of works councils by Industries shows that 144 were found In the metal trades, while 81 were distributed over other industries, and that in the distribution by size of establishment the majority were found in plant® having over 500. workers. Os particular interest was the distribution according to the extent of trade unionism. There were 81 plants from which information was received on this subject, and but two of these were “closed nonunion shops” and one other nominally so. Out of about sixty firms reporting the percentage of union labor in their employ only eight had no union members, while the number of trade -unionists in the majority of the estafufshments ranged from 20 to 90 per cent of the force. The details Os organization, the scope of the plans, and the functions and activities of the works councils are dealt with in considerable detail, but it is in the chapter on “Experience with works councils” that the main interest lies, since heretofore, owing to their brief existence, there has been little information collected as to the results attained by the committees. There are various factors which affect the success of such attempts, which must be taken into consideration, the report states, such as “the individual circumstances under which they were formed, differences in type of organization, the character of relations between employer and employees. the personality of t}>e management, the type of employees, the size of establishment, and industrial conditions prevailing at the time of their introduction.” Effect Generally Beneficial. It Is stated that only a small minority of the councils have be4n entirely given up or have failed to work satisfactorily, and in most of these cases the committees were established by governmental agencies to meet war emergencies. In general, it is said that the committees have had a beneficial effect on labor conditions, although in a few instances they seem to have aggravated labor troubles. They evidently have been of some effect in reducing labor turnover, but there seems to be only a small amount of evidence of an increase in productive efficiency through their influence or of reduction of tardiness or absenteeism. There was evidence in most cases reporting that a conservative type of employee had been elected to membership, although approval of the ones selected was by no means unanimous. In general it was found that the committees have been, instrumental in improving the relations between management and employees, and 23 establishments' reported that labor difficulties have decreased or been entirely eliminated through the agency of the committees. Definite testimony of the effect of the councils on the spread of unionism was given in 17 cases, seven of which reported an increase in union membership, while among the remainder it decreased. The report as a whole seems to show such a diversified experience that it is difficult to generalize as to the effect of the councils. Cold Storage of Butter. The federal bureau of statistics has been making further inquiries with respect to the cold storage

DIAMONDS OF THE FIRST WATER. A distinguished educator, polemic and literary man called in the office a day or two ago and uttered a sentiment which will awaken a response in thousands of hearts and heads.

business. It tells us that the storage season for butter may be said to begin in May and end in April. Storage holdings are increased during May, June, July and August, and hence these months are known as “storing months.” Storage holdings are decreased during the months from September to April, inclusive. These months are known as “distributing months.” September Is sometimes a storing month if the season is late. The largest amount held in storage on the first of any month during a season is known as the “peak load” for the season.. About three-fourths of the peak load is stored during June and July; most of the distribution is within the months of October to March, inclusive. About one-fourth of the peak load is usually withdrawn during December. On May 1, 1917, at the beginning of the 1917-18 season, there were a little over 2,500,000 pounds of butter in storage; During the months of May to October storage holdings showed a net increase of a little over 103,500,000 pounds. The average wholesale price for these months was 39.5 cents. During June and July the net amount stored was almost 77,500,000 pounds. The average wholesale price for these two months was 37.9 cents. Withdrawal Boosted Prices. From October 1 to May 1, 1918, there was a net withdrawal from storage of 96,000,000 pounds. The average wholesale price during these months was 45.5 cents. In December there was a net decrease in storage holdings of 30,000,000 pounds. The average wholesale price in December was 48.1 cents. During the storing months of this season, exports of butter totaled a little over 2,000,000 pounds and Imports about 419,000 pounds. During the distributing months exports totaled over 14,500,000 pounds and imports almost 1,500,000. By proclamation of July 9, 1917, the export of butter was prohibited except by virtue of a special license. Butter was included in the presidential license proclamations of October 8, 1917, and January 10, 1918. It was in the list of restricted Imports April 22, 1918. During the period from May, 1917, to April,. 1918, the average differential between wholesale and retail prices was 5 cents. On May 1, 1918, at the beginning of the 1918-19 season, there were a little over 10,000,000 pounds in storage. During the months from May until September storage holdings showed a net increase t>f slightly over 91,000,000 pounds. The total production from May until September was 372,500,000 pounds. The average wholesale price for these months was 42.9 cents. During June and July the net increase in storage holdings was 76,000,000 pounds. The total production for these two months was approximately 202,000,000 pounds. The average wholesale price for these two months was 42.6 cents. The movement into storage of such a large proportion of the amount produced prevented a glutted market and a consequent decline in price. From September until May, 1919, there was a net withdrawal from storage of 92,000,000 pounds. The average wholesale , price for these months was 58.7 cents. During December there was a net withdrawal of a little more than 20,500,000 pounds. The average wholesale price in December was 67 cents. Fluctuations During Winter. In December the wholesale price advanced another 6 cents and the retail price 7 cents, although production was practically the same as in November, and there was a net decrease of 20,000,000 pounds in the amount in storage. During December, however, 3,000,000 pounds were exported. The wholesale price for January, 1919, was 62 cents; for February, 48 cents, and for March, 60 cents. The amount produced in February was almost 7,000,000 pounds less than in January. During February, however, there was a net decrease in cold storage holdings of 12,500,000 pounds, which was greater by 5,000,000 than the net decrease during January. The wholesale price in April was 62 cents. During this month storage holding* showed a net decrease of 2,000,000 pounds, but over 8,000,000 pounds were exported. During the season 1918-19 the average differential be tween the wholesale and retail price was 5 cents, approximately the same as for the 1917-18 season. The 1919-20 season will not be com pleted until May 1. On May 1, 1919. at the beginning of the season, there were approximately 9,500,000 pounds In storage. During May, June and July, 1919, production increased. From May until August there was a greal decrease in the amount exported Disregard Korean Prejudices. One of the great obstacles to road and railway development In Korea in ante-Japanese days was the fact that many graves blocked the way, it being the greatest outrage among the Koreans to disturb a grave of either a father or a remote ancestor. The general belief was that no matter how innocent the descendants might be of disturbing the graves, disasters and punishments were sure to come to them in consequence of such violation. The Japanese, however, built the roads quite regardless of graves, and in accordance only with principles of engineering. Moreover, they robbed the graves of treasures buried with the dead, exhibiting them later with archeological enthusiasm nbt understood by the Koreans. Just Suppose It Got Married.
