ORGANIZED LABOR ASKED TO ASSIST VETERANS Director General Hines of the Veteran's Bureau Makes Statement "At the present time there are approximately 70,000 men in vocational training under the Veteran's Bureau. The employment objectives of these men are distributed over the whole field of human endeavor, properly within the classification of "vocational." Of this number approximately 40 per cent, or less than 30,000, are being qualified for employment in the trades and industries. As the completion of their training in the various courses will occur at different times there will be no disturbance in the ordinary distribution of labor by the assimilation of these men and no danger of overcrowding in a single occupation," says Director General Hines. "I am sure that you will agree with me that it is of the greatest importance that no policies of the bureau bring about a condition of dependency for those ex-service men who are able to again take up gainful employment and an active part in the economic life of our country. These men have stood the acid test of citizenship. They have had the great opportunity of serving their country and having served their country in time of emergency, it is important that they take up fully again their responsibilities of citizenship. "The assimilation by industry of this comparatively small group of rehabilitated trainees on a basis advantageous to the men would seem a small consideration in comparison with the service these same men gave, or stood ready to give, in the hour of civilization's peril. The government through the civil service commission, manufacturers, railroad companies, industrial establishments and many local and district labor organizations have modified certain requirements of relief and assistance. In this regard we all have the same objective, but, to enable the actually disabled man to receive the fullest benefits, it is important that those ex-service men who are able to again take up their pre-war occupations should do so. It is for this reason that I have talked at great length to you today, in order to gain the support of your organization in backing these men in their efforts to again stand on their own feet. Not so much for the reason that the cost to the government is great in continuing the training of these men beyond the point of employability, but because of the fact that such a policy is dangerous in that it might cause those men to lose what is essential in civil life,—confidence in themselves to earn their own living.—successful rehabilitation means successful reemployment. It means the getting back into the economic structure of civil life those men who were called into service of their country during the world conflict. "Your interest in their welfare and your cooperation with the Veterans' Bureau will do much to bring about the desired result." NOVEMBER PLANTING OF ORNAMENTAL BULBS November is known among gardeners as the bulb month for more bulbs are then planted than during the other 11 months. The so-called Dutch or Holland bulbs have all arrived within the past few weeks and the sooner they are put in the soil the better it will be for all who handle them. All sorts have had a sufficient period of dormancy, the sooner they are planted the quicker will they renew growth and the smaller the percent that will rot if conditions are not of the best. Anemones and ranunculuses are best soaked in water for 24 hours before planting but the round solid sorts thigh dependent on warm seeds of all plants free fall to sow generally California wild flowers. Henry Ford says that he could do at Muscle couldn't do elsewhere make fertilizer for the claims that this is why his proposal has been the War Department said if he has any successical propaganda it was the farmers and others do not know what hare out in the various heat matter from the time submitted to the end grass. In those hearings it the Ford offer gave whatever that he would produce fertilizers. He self said that he would ment to continue the fertilizers or to invest finite sum of money in He frankly said that he could not produce Yet all the political fus made over Ford's office cause of the fast that delusive bait of cheapduction for the farmer. The history of the shows that Ford offered the unfinished plant Government at the old spent about $1 which could have been yield $16,000,000. The ping would be heavy cause much money he dam and into other yield nothing by such the Ford offer did not Government would get be at no further expense proposal the Government to proceed to finish c "The assimilation by industry of this comparatively small group of rehabilitated trainees on a basis advantageous to the men would seem a small consideration in comparison with the service these same men gave, or stood ready to give, in the hour of civilization's peril. The government through the civil service commission, manufacturers, railroad companies, industrial establishments and many local and district labor organizations have modified certain requirements and waived other in the employment interests of the men, and it is hoped by all who are active in their behalf that every organization or group of citizens in the nation may see the righteousness and justice of such action. "The progress thus far made by the Veterans' Bureau in gaining favorable consideration from so many agencies, representative bodies and labor organizations in behalf of these men leads me to believe that it only remains for the American Federation of Labor to take appropriate action to remove the lot barrier between a certain group of rehabilitated American soldiers and their full reestablishment. "It is interesting to note that since the first of March, when the campaign of employment was started, the men then in training on the government payroll numbered 93,000, and that in October 1 this number had been reduced to 73,000; and it is gratifying to know that 98 per cent of these, or approximately 19,600 have been successfully placed in employment. Were we to measure this as a matter of economy alone the achievement would result in the restriction of the government expenses over three millions dollars per month. "With reference to the abilities and qualification of these men to perform the requirements of the occupations for which they have been trained, I will state that a survey of all who are now in training is being conducted to determine their abilities and fitness to man. Specialists in every trade and occupation for which training is being given, are reviewing the capabilities and accomplishments of the men to do terminate their abilities and fitness to carry on the work for which they are being trained. Upon the completion of this work the bureau will be in a position to certify with definiteness to the qualifications possessed by each man, and it will be my positive instruction to the field that no certification be made that is not sustained by the facts." Or Holland bulbs have all arrived within the past few weeks and the sooner they are put in the soil the better it will be for all who handle them. All sorts have had a sufficient period of dormancy, the sooner they are planted the quicker will they renew growth and the smaller the percent that will rot if conditions are not of the best. Anemones and ranunculuses are best soaked in water for 24 hours before planting but the round solid sorts of bulbs do not need it. More care should be given to lily bulbs for they are more susceptible to injury and decay and deteriorate more and faster than other bulbs when either in or out of the soil. The temperature is falling now, soil is becoming colder and the chances are good for soaking rains. This complex or combination of unfavorable factors bids us be cautious. Plant lilies five inches below surface, but before seating bulbs on bottom of the holes, drop in a handful of clean sharp sand because lily bulbs usually start to decay at the crown, or ring about which the roots start. If sand is plentiful drop some on top of bulb to settle down among the scales, for soil containing decomposing vegetable matter may otherwise induce rot if rains are heavy, weather is cold and if bulbs are slow in starting. If tulips are planted the preparations cannot be too carefully made. The best tulips I ever grew had a hole for them dug two feet deep. In this soil was replaced after being well mixed with one-fourth well rotted stable manure and one-fourth sand. When within six inches of the top it was settled with water and when this had soaked in an inch of sand was spread and the bulbs placed on this in design. The hole was circular. The tallest sort, fewest in number, were placed in the center. The other sorts ever increasing in number, were placed in rings or circles about these, the dwarfest sort occupying the outside or border circle. The hole was then filled in, wetted, and a dike built around it, on the final earth, so four inches of water would stand over bulbs when watering. After tops came up the bed was heavily watered and produced the best tulips, in the most striking formal design, of any small bed I ever saw. The stems of the central lot was but three feet in diameter. This is a good mouth for planting out dormant root roses. Seasons vary and they may not be available for a few months now. Government at the clerk had spent about $15 which could have been yield $16,000,000.

Upon the completion of this work the bureau will be in a position to certify with definiateness to the qualifications possessed by each man, and it will be my positive instruction to the field that no certification be made that is not sustained by the facts. "With reference to the use of the words 'disabled' or 'disability' in connection with the rehabilitated veteran it is to be understood that the disabilities referred to are purely occupational, and of such a nature as to in no way interfere with the man's ability to accomplish the work of the trade or occupation for which he has been trained. For instance, there are many men who are inclined to be tubercular that have been fitted for employment in positions of environment that will not aggravate a return to the former condition. Men who have had major operations or amputations, are trained for such work as they can perform in a full measure on a competitive basis, so there need be no hesitancy on the part of organized labor to accept these men at par upon proper certification. "I deem this statement necessary as it has frequently been said that a man with a disability could not perform the requirements of the various trades and occupations represented in the labor organizations. "For the actually disabled man who is unable to again assume the responsibilities of earning his own living, we all agree he should be given the full- This is a good mouth for planting out dormant root roses. Seasons vary and they may not be available for a few weeks yet. While there need be no hurry, if soil and plans are ready one may plant both evergreen and deciduous ornamentals. As a rule the deciduous trees and shrubs are not dug until after November, but you may plant the balled evergreens if on the market. Roses and carnations will have "wood" available for cuttings and these may be made and planted if sharp sand in a shaded spot protected from winds. Roses my still be pruned if dormant but as nearly all are now making new growth they should not be pruned except to remove some growth and canes if too thick, and be sure to remove all canes smaller than a lead pencil for such wood is too weak to support good flowers. Do not, in autumn pruning, cut back deciduous shrubs which bower early in the spring or the flower crop will be cut away. Such shrubs should be pruned immediately after flowering.

FORD'S MUSCLE SHOALS BAIT Henry Ford says that the only thing he could do at Muscle Shoals that he couldn't do elsewhere would be to make fertilizer for the farmer, and he claims that this is the only reason why his proposal has been opposed by the War Department and in Congress. If he has any success with such political propaganda it will be because the farmers and others of the country do not know what has been brought out in the various hearings upon the matter from the time the offer was submitted to the end of the last Congress. In those hearings it developed that the Ford offer gave no guarantee whatever that he would continuously produce fertilizers. In fact, he himself said that he would make no agreement to continue the production of fertilizers or to invest a certain definite sum of money in the production. He frankly said that he would stop, if he could not produce it profitably. Yet all the political fuss that has been made over Ford's offer is merely because of the fact that it carried this delusive bait of cheap fertilizer production for the farmer. The history of the whole matter shows that Ford offered $5,000,000 for the unfinished plant on which the Government at the close of the war had spent about $103,000,000 and which could have been scrapped to yield $16,000,000. The loss in scraping would be heavy, of course, because much money had gone into a dam and into other works that would yield nothing by such a process. But the Ford offer did not mean that the Government would get $5,000,000 and be at no further expense. Under the proposal the Government would have to proceed to finish certain works at different sections will exhibit. The show is a student enterprise which enjoys the hearty support of the Pomology Department as of the University at large. The judging will be done by a student committee chosen on the basis of scholarship and philosophical ability. Interest shown by growers throughout the state indicates that the 1923 show will be even more successful than those of former years. Last year, to the Third Annual Fruit Show, more than 300 exhibitors, from nine-tenths of the counties of California and from twenty-one other states, sent 105 varieties of apples, 81 of pears, 68 of grapes, 60 of nuts, 30 of plums and prunes, 25 of citrus fruits, 20 of dates, 12 of olives, 9 of jujubes, 4 of quinces, besides smaller entries of less known fruits. The University has cold storage facilities for keeping all fruit until the date of the show. In connection with the Fruit Show will be held a series of Deciduous Fruit Growers' Conferences. Monday November 19, will be devoted to a program of special interest to almond growers; Tuesday to apricot growers; Wednesday to prune growers; while Thursday, November 22, the program will pertain to marketing problems. On Friday the topic of discussion will be arranged for pear growers. The second Annual High School and Junior College Fruit Judging Contest will take place Saturday morning, November 24. Further information and instructions for exhibitors, may be obtained by addressing the Division of Pomology, Berkeley, California. Straw votes are never significant. They merely indicate the people's choice. We'd all be happier if we realized that there's nothing in the world worth worrying over.

Army Munson last shoes, sizes 5 1-2 to 12 which was the entire surplus stock of one of the largest U. S. Government shoe contractors. This shoe is guaranteed one hundred per cent solid leather, color dark tan, bellows tongue, dirt and water proof. The actual value of this shoe is $6.00. Owing to this tremendous buy we can offer same to the public at $2.95. Government at the close of the war had spent about $103,000,000 and which could have been scrapped to yield $16,000,000. The loss in scraping would be heavy, of course, because much money had gone into a dam and into other works that would yield nothing by such a process. But the Ford offer did not mean that the Government would get $5,000,000 and be at no further expense. Under the proposal the Government would have to proceed to finish certain works at an estimated expense of $50,000,000. Mr. Ford would then lease them for 100 years to a company that he controlled at an annual rental of 4 per cent of the cost of completion. He would also pay the Government $55,000 annually for Government maintenance of dams, gates and locks the Ford company owned and on its part the Government was to insure him not only against floods but all depreciation during the term of the lease. He would also make a payment of $46,746 a year to amorize the cost of completion. The Ford offer did not contemplate payment of any interest on money necessary to complete the dams until they were completed, and Senator Norris in his report against the Ladd measure to accept the offer stated that "Mr. Ford is actually paying as rental, not 4 per cent interest as it appears from a first examination of his proposal, but 2.79 per cent. This means that under the Ford offer this corporation (the Ford corporation) is getting money from the Government at 2.79 per cent on 100 years' time." It was further estimated and has been clearly proved that, if the Ford offer were accepted, he could at once sell off over $5,000,000 worth of the property and have two nitrate plants and the Waco quarry, together with all buildings and lands on which they were situated—in fact, all he wanted—free of all cost. This plant free from cost as Ford wanted it would include the Gorgas steam plant with transmission lines which the Government developed on land belonging to the Alabama Power Company merely to get power until the dams were completed and on which the power company had an option under the contract. The validity of the contract has been sustained and the company has recently exercised it a option, paying the Government $3,472,487, which is within a million and a half of what Ford offered for the whole Muscle Shoals development. It is because of this sale that Ford now complains that NOTICE In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California. Clara M. Swan, Plaintiff vs. Frank Hart, Defendant.

ANNUAL FRUIT SHOW COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE The Fourth Annual Show of the College of Agriculture of the University of California will be held Nov. 19-24 in Hilgand Hall, Berkeley. It will be open to the public, and growers are invited to send fresh and dried fruits for exhibition and in competition for first, second and third place ribbons. Not only fruits and nuts will be exhibited but also fruit products, flowers, and potted shrubs. It is expected that growers from widely land belonging to the Alabama Power Company merely to get power until the dams were completed and on which the power company had an option under the contract. The validity of the contract has been sustained and the company has recently exercised its option, paying the Government $3,472,487, which is within a million and a half of what Ford offered for the whole Muscle Shoals development. It is because of this sale that Ford now complains that his offer to make fertilizers for the farmers is being set aside. If he could have sold the Gorgas plant himself and a little more, he could have had the main thing for nothing, provided the Government would put up $50,000,000 more on wh ich a Ford company would pay 2.79 per cent interest with a 100 years' amortization. But he wouldn't guarantee to make fertilizers for the farmers unless it paid. If Ford wants to run for President on his Muscle Shoals offer he is likely to have some bad encounters with the evidence now before Congress. Santa Ana Monumental Works BEN P.
