WORKERS WANTED FOR THE CO-OPERATIVE MOVEMENT ‘We have reason to believe that the Government will in a very short time assist in establishing the Rochdale System of Co-Operation in the United States, On account of the interest that has already developed and the demand for this system to be put in operation and the lack of knowledge of the essential features that were necessary to make the Rochdale System a success, it-became P necessary for us to establish a school to teach and train people to do the work. ‘We started school on November 1st, and it was a success from the start, yet we are not getting enough people to take up the work as fast as demands are being made for managers for Co-Operative Stores that we are establishing and men to sell stock to establish co-operative institutions. : This School is for the purpose of training people in the true principles of the Rochdale System of Co-Operation so that the people that we interest may know and understand that it is. a plan of “Each for all and.all for each.” We want every Red-Blooded American that has more interest in the Common People than in dollars to come and see us or write us, and we will assure you that if you will take up this work with the spirit that is necessary in any work to make a success, that the geople with whom you meet and interest to take part: in the movement will be benefitted, and you ‘will receive a'compensation equal to or better than gou have ever received before. 3 This_work is being conducted by the American Rochdale Union, an educa- ' tional Organization teaching co-operation and establishing Business Institu- tions on_the combined plan of the Rochdale System as being operated in England, Scotland, Ireland, Denmark and other European Countries, and is to the co-operative institutions of America what the Co-Operative Union, Ltd., is to the co-operative enterprises of Euroge. 3 X ‘Write for further information, or call at the Ninth Floor, Pioneer Building.

From one morning paper a reporter had come assigned to the Nonpartisan-job. He was alert, brim- ming full of information, aware of wrongs in the New York food situa- tion, and he drove through a wonderful story preparing the way :for the Townley meeting here. But right - afterwards — that _was another story! REPORTERS’ QUESTIONS SHOW FATHEADEDNESS This fair, . accurate, ‘informed re- - porter came no more upon the job. Instead there came a reporter asking strange questions, making strange in- sinuations. A little group of friends had come to Mr. Townley’s hotel to greet him. They had eaten dinner—fifteen or so of them—and each person had paid for his own dinner. Yet this sleuth from this paper wanted to know if certain pacifist millionaires didn’t do the pay- ing, if certain pro-Germans didn’t put up a wad, if certain propaganda inter- ests weren’t back of the whole affair. As for John Baer, the Nonpartisan league ‘congressman—they had his number. Didn’t he work for Hearst. Wasn’t Hearst the German agent in America? @ What more proof was needed that he, Baer, was -an alien seditionary? ) s Beck of the Labor Food conference dealt with this man. He dared him to pull- his stories—told him he had nothing but his paper to wreck—that it was tommy-rot to imagine any such crazy things as he was imagining, and that any story insinuating that the dinner was a “propaganda” affair would be met by proof in the form of a signed statement from every’ person present stating that these persons paid, each for his own dinner. HOW THE REPORTERS TRIED TO FRAME MEETING This paper kept sleuths at work for | some time—it has not made its thrusts yet. 5 But wherever among labor union people the Nonpartisan league work- ers have gone they have found traces of these tales. At one meeting of the Central Federated union, Carl Beck found present -Teporters from the metropolitan press, who never usually attend. They asked at once about the “grand plan to throw down this Non- partisan league business and brand it as seditious.” Sure enough one labor.man, known as a “labor politician,” did start some attack of that kind but other ‘labor men were after him in a minute and the reports of the delegates asigned to look into the Nonpartisan league matter were accepted by unanimous - vote. The reporters this time went - away and wrote not a single word." And thus it always goes in news matters, where the plutocracy is in- Season PSIDN requirements for 1918.
