There was nothing in it for | the contractors or the men that sup- ply materials for construction work. There was nothing in it for the local | stores that sell food and other goods in normal volume to wage earners when they are employed. So the Bricklayers' Union of South Bend came to the scratch with an | agreement with the building contrac- | tors to let an arbitration commission {look into the situation and see if they could help to start things going again, The commission went over the ground and decided that a four- teen per cent. reduction of the brick- layers' wages ought to start some- thing in the bricklaying line if oth- ers would do gHeir share, Thus the Was cheerfully accepted. | Then the South Bend Car | Union promptly deetded th | fourteen per cent wage cut was {right thing for the bricklayers | take 80 as to start building it w | the right thing for the carpenters. | And the South Bend Plumbers' Union the bricklayers and the carpenters to do it was the thing for the plumb- ers to do. Everybody joined in except the Plasterers' Union. But all the rest of the South Bend industry savers did not propose to let the Plasterers' Union play dog in the manger and keep the others out of their jobs. The plasterers got flat notice that when the new construction that is now starting up all over South Bend has gone far enough along to need plasterers either they will take their cut or other ,lasterers will be put on the job wherever they may be found and whether they are union men or not. : So South Bend, Indiana, full of public spirit and common sense, gets back to work. ---------- Glacier Head Lettuce Home Grown, very tender, .

Los Angeles, Cal, June 1.--That between 2,000 and 3,000 motion pie- ture workers in Hoilywaod, the world's film capital, are actually starving is the assertion that is being made by conservative citizens in Los Angeles, who are personally familiar with conditions in the cinema sub- urb.

The French view ig that the pre- miers should not meet before June 16th, France pointing out that when the council convenes it will have not only the Silesian issue but the Ger- man disarmament problem to settle, unless Bavaria meanwhile submits to the demand from Berlin for the dis- of the treaty of Versailles, Wealthy Canadian Widow 3 Robbed in New York New York, June 1--Police, as well as the management of the Hotel: Ambassador, are mystified by . the first robbery that has occurred in the house since it opened. This ine itial robbery is the theft of jewels valuéd at $10,000 from the three- room suite of Mrs. Duncan McMar- tin, a wealthy widow. Her husband made a fortune in the Cobalt region in . Canada. Mrs. McMartin discovered her loss yesterday on her return to the city from a week-end out of town. How the robbery was committed is a puzzle, Premier Briand on Tuesday even- ing was given a vote of confidence in the French senate when it rejected a motion to submit the London agree- ment to a commission.
