A great mistake was made in
Saturday’s issue. The linotype

said that doll in the window
of Goodson’s Drug Store was
worth $5 instead of $15. He left
off the figure “one,” which, of
course, made a great difference.

Industrial Relations to determine
how best to distribute harvest
hands in the great grain grow-
ing states of the West and
Northwest.
Investigators for the commis-
sion are prepared to show that
the present lack of system in
handling the labor problem in
the west is not only unsatisfac-
tory to both the farmers and the
men seeking jobs but has in
some instances resulted in riots
and serious disturbances in the
harvest fields.
Their reports will show that
each year thousands of men
flock to the harvest fields from
the cities and undergo hard-
ships because of their inability
to get work promptly, while in
other districts farmers are suf-
fering from a shortage of help.
Representatives of the rail-
roads, the state labor commi
sion and the farmers will be
asked to suggest a plan to
remedy this trouble. The com-
mission probably will then sug-
gest the appointment of a com-
mittee to work out a system of
distribution of farm labor.
