12,080 STRIKERS ARE
NOW OUT IN CHICAGO
*
Two Thousand More Union
Men are idle
Chicago, May 3.—Two thousand moiv
union workers joined the ranks of
strikers in the various -trades today,
with the result that more than 12,000
men are now out and three times that
number -are threatening to quit work.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, is here,
holding conferences in -an effort to end
the difficulties, which among other
things, have tied up building and con
struction work. Five thousand mem
bers of the allied building trades are
out because of a jurisdictional fight
in the ranks of the union, and con
tractors are threatening the City with
a lockout unless the trouble is ended.
The men who failed to show up for
work today are machinists and mem
bers of the building trades.
Gompers today came out in opposi
tion to “sluggers and gunmen” in la
bor controversies. He declared he was
in favor of open door unionism.
OF COURSE, IT SHOULD HATH
BEEN THE LEGRANDE
And M ayoress, >oi Valdosta, is Where
The Messrs. Wooten Locate.
A little brevity crept into The
Recorder the other day stating that
the Messrs. Wooten would take the
Valdes at Valdosta, and that it would
he enlarged. Os course, it was not
meant to say that. Everybody knows
that the Messrs. Wooten will devote
thetr time to the now LeGrande at
Waycross. But that little four line
mistake brought many inquiries to the
Valdes proprietor, the well known Mr.
E D. Ferrell, who keeps the Valdosta
'hostelry running in such fine shape
and maintains its prestige with 'the
'traveling public. Mr. Ferrell has a
long lease on the Valdes and will con
tinue *o keep it at the front of the
oouth Georgia hotels.

WILL GO AFTER
LORIMER AGAIN
Senate Committee Authorize
Another Probe
Washington, May 3. —Renewal of
the Lorimer investigation was pro
vided for today by the senate com
mittee on contingent expenses, which
approved a resolution covering the
expenses of such an inquiry. The
report will come up in the senate to
morrow and a fight is expected.
The report -was unanitnous, but
there was a specific understanding
that it should not be construed as an
indication of the committee’s views
on the merits of the case. So particu
lar were some of the members on this
- 1
point that they insisted upon a -writ
ten -statement that the action indicat
ed only that if another investigation
should be undertaken provision would
be made for the expense,
It was also agreed that the recom
mendation of the committee today
should aqoply to an investigation or
dered, whether under the LaFollette
resolution providing for a special
committee or by the regular commit
tee on privileges and elections.
The first fight in the senate on the
resolution is expec’ed to come when
an ffort is made to have it referred
to the committee on privileges and
elections.
WARM FIGHT ON WEEVIL
WILL BE CARRIED ON
Georgia Will Combat Cotton
Destroyer
Atlanta, May 3.—An energetic cam
paign of defense against the boll
weevil, which Is said to be making its
way to the cotton fields of Georgia,
has been determined upon by the
Etate Department of Entomology, and
the legislature will be asked at its
coming session for an appropriation
to carry on the -work.
The cotton pest, it is stated, is not
due to reach this state for three years
and State Entomologist Worsham
hopes so have the cotton planters thor
oughly instructed -before that time in
the mgs-t efficient methods of combat
ting the weevil.
Cards explaining the work of the
weevil and the best methods of resist
ing its advance will accompany the
exhibits.
Did You Ever Stop
to Reason it Out?
How many friends of yours wear
ready-to-wear clothes made by Stein-
Bloch? We know that a good many
of them do. DO YOU?
You ought to. You cannot give a single
valid reason why you ought not to, as far as
fit, as style, workmanship and above all, val
ue is concerned. All these things enter into
your clothes problem. Stop to reason it out
and stop in to try on a fresh new Stein-Bloch
suit.
