The board experienced some diffi- culty during the past year in main- taining a sufficient force of laborers. Its treasury was hard hit - by = the heavy snows, removal of which cost $ 399.72. The work was carried out in an efficient manner as is shown Ly the fact that it was not necessary afany time to have horses at any off the fire houses. “During the year the board elim- ~Anated ‘jobs paying $7,160, cffecting a saving to the eity of . that amount.

There are 1,063 basins to be cleaned twice a year, the cost being about 86,500, A machine would pay for itself in a fow years and would be useful for flushing, sprinkling, plowing snow, etc., the board veports, Special Notice Girl Scouts of the Center Church will hold a supper at 6:30, Tuesday, May 8th.

In outlining his plan, Prof. rick states: o1 recalled first a question asked by the acting governor of Iliinols of an officinl of the miners' union during the coal strike, “iMay they dig coal for the hos- pitals?' was the question. ‘No,' re- plied the official. “Our defense ) been wholly mili- tary, We have defended our Lorders, but not our vital industries. We must supply this lack by making tralned industrial res a co-ordinate branch of the national defense, The! militia of industry will preserve in- dustrial peace as the militla of arms, preserves order. It will tuke but few trained reserves to defend our vital industries such as mining and trans- portation. Industrial unpreparedness is inexcusable as military. “gtrikes, to borrow good old medi- cal terms, are either laudable or malignant. Strikes in vital indus- tries are malignant. The laudable strike usual in Lincoln’s day, has be-| como rare. You see therefore why our six million farmers do not strike, | “But to organized labor the strike is the breath of life. “The government, co-operating | with the entire educational system, | will offer a belef intensive course in one or more of the vital industries, under the new plan. This will add | purpose and aim to education and put ther mint-stamp on citizenship. | No drafting will be required, for vol- unteers will flock to the reserves in allegiance to Uncle Sam, even many | from the unions to escape bad lead- | ership. “Here is the safeguard against so- | cialism. The folly of admitting un- | desirable aliens to do the work we should do ourselves will be apparent. | The Boy Scouts will be ideal ploneers of the new way.* “The plan has made a good start.| In Rockford its power and promise were quickly recognized. It has re- celved attention at the White House and has been placed on file for refer- ence in the Department of Labor, in the division of conciliation. The plan strikes terror to the heart of the evil-| doer." ¢ | Mr, Woll, plan, said: “Prof. Herrick would leave labor | free to organize and to strike if it | wants to, but he would set up an eco- | nomic reserve, founded on voluntary | conscription, that could be drawn | upon wherever and whenever the or- ganized workers dared exercise their refusal ta give service to the employ- | ing interests. | His idea is now only .in rthat he| would have the state, instead of the | private employer, venture into the | organization of strikebreaking, by | organizing a state organization of | strikebreakers under the more elusive | term of ‘economic reserves.’ | “Somehow the workers of America Her- in commenting on the | freemen. teresting because of his all-absorbing desire to protect employers and indus- tries and in consideration to the human life and the advancement of the human interests of that large group of producers—the wage-earning clags, Ior the workers to resent wrong, for them to organize to protect themsclves against economic enslave-| ment, for them to aspirc to a better | life to the higher things in-life, evi- | @aently i all wrong according to the [ facas of Prof. Herrick. for a number of | are loath to give up their rights as| Prof. Herrick's idea is in- | 1y the Red army of I3 .
