'. '..' ' - Cost of X.lvlng. Discussing the high cost of living, Sulzer, said: "For more; than 10 years the increas ing cost of living, mounting higher and higher each succeeding year; has been th most immediate, the most pressing and the most universally observed fact about ikionomlc conditions in this country; While wages Jiavo remained prac tically the same, the cont of the neces- Barles Of life has grown more and more oppressive, until today the average man in our state, with a family to support, lias about all he can do to make both ends meet. I earnestly direct your care ful consideration to this important matters concerning the neonle. and recom- Initnd that you take such action In the Wemlsea as you deem lust and wlso jto reduce the high cost of the necessaries of life, in order to make living Jtss ft struggle for physical existence." r ... . . a .u- a i. -i. lat.on to safeguard human life, Sulzer said: , . VWe must try to work out practical Ierislation that will apply our social ideals, and our views of Industrial progress to secure for our men, women and children tlje greatest possible reserve of physical and mental force. I hold It to be self-evident that no Industry has theiglU to. .sacrifice ..human, life for its profit, but that just as each industry nust reckon in its cost of production the material waste, so It should ateo count as a part of the cost of production the human waste, which it employs.- Workers Entitled to Fair Fay. "No compensation is fulr which docs not secum to each worker- at least enough to permit KlrriT'TnV"hwr decent-standards of life. The workers themselves have not always been able to secure such compensation for themselves. Particularly has this been true or women and children, In whom the state should take an especial interest, jo sectira for these less accustomed to the competitive struggle protection that otlter wdtkera. Jiavo wonfofthemselves through organization, we should; carefully consider the establishment of waee boards with authority to fix a liv ing wage for conditions of work below which- standards no Industry should be allowed to continue' its operations. Massachusetts has enactod such a law, Ohio recently, adopted a constitutional amendment tutorizing the state legislature to do the same. For the welfare or the state child life must be protected. Not only should the child be guaranteed the right to be born equal, but it must be given the chance to live, to grow, to learn and to develop Into useful and patriotic citl- tenship. . ' Tha work period must not be per-. milted to infringe on the fonnativ,,and the maturing periods. Compulsory edu cational laws and restrictions upon child Inftnr nf-nnerlv enforced, will secure to every child of the state its rightrlirt, wlth fUUa Mlldre(J Sefert as enhance national progress and aid civilisation. The matured, developed worker will bring to Industry greater ability arid resourcefulness. No busi ness has an Inalienable right to child labor. No industry has a right to rob the state of that whiah constitutes its greatest wealth. No commerce that de-'snds on child labor for Its success has y right to exist. Let us do what we Ian to protect .the children of the state Ind preserve their fundamental rights. - j ArmH&nees KeiOs. : "Another type f leglstation beneficial to the state that alms to conserve numan life and health. Is that which requires ' the use of safety appliances and establishes safety standards. Human life is infinitely more valuable than the' profit of material things.

Discussing Riddell's efforts to serve the Bubpena, one of Rockefeller's millionaire friends said today: "It Is frightful to think that a man of Mr. Rockefeller's Importance should be so annoyed. All this notoriety put3 him in a wrong light and pauses cranks to annoy him. Rockefeller merely believes his testimony would not be valuable and feels bis health will not per?, mit him to go toVasrtiington." T)ie homes of bothJolin D. Rockefeller Sr., and John P.

His body was discovered in the pool about 8 o'clock. He Was a native of Marlon county, having been born at Silverton CS years ago. -It was Mr,.A.llen'a habit, -followed for years, to take a cold shower bath at the T. M. C A. each morning. As he often arrived before the Association building was open, he carried a key arid7wenTTirtftia out aihe chOse. It Is thought he reached the building about 7 O'clock this morning. About 8 o'clock J. E. Baker, Janitor, found Mr. Allen's clothing in the business men's dressing room. He recognised them and called to Mr. Allen. Receiving no reply, ho searched through the various shower baths. Not finding him, Baker became alarmed and notified General Secretary L. H. Compton. Secretary. Compton, ' after looking through the rooms, went to the swimming tank and began a search of it by diving, and In a short time recovered the body. In the meantime W. I. Staley, president of the association, had. been called, and when the body was found he called Dr, Mercer and pr. Morse, and notified the coroner. Efforts to revive the body were futile.
