ELIMINATE USE OF
CAR FOR PLEASURE
(Continued from first page.)
and everyone is requested to handle
personally all tire repairs and motor
adjustments. The dealers are not re
fusing to make repairs, but the car
owner is cautioned against requesting
unnecessary help. On Sundays and
holidays, when few except pleasure cars
are in use, no garage service will be
available, and night service will be
eliminated entirely.
Gratis Service [Abandoned
It has been a popular practice with
retail concerns in the past to offer
service to a car purchaser for a limited
period of time After July 1, however,
a purchaser must assume all responsibility
and not even the slightest adjustment
is to be made gratis. This is expected
to eliminate work which necessitates
the employment of many mechanics.
It is planned by these measures to reduce
the mechanical forces at least 50 per
tent, releasing many skilled workmen
for government service
Dealers To Meet
A meeting of members of the North
western Trade association, which in
cludes virtually every dealer in the
territory, has been called for July 1
Minneapolis. Preceding that meeting,
which it is expected will be attended by
at least 1,500 members, a meeting of
garage and repair men, accessory and
gasoline dealers will take place, possibly
June 28
In its address to dealers, the Na
tional association's committee suggesed
that every concern adopt a strictly cash
basis July 1. It also is suggested
dealers should at once establish classes
or encourage schools to educate mechan
ics and drivers. Users of cars are urged
to keep their machines properly equipped
with tools and repair outfits.
IF YOUR CHILD IS CROSS,
FEVERISH, CONSTIPATED
Look, Mother! If tongue Is coated,
cleanse little bowels with "Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs."
Mothers can rest easy after giving
"California sjrup of Figs," because in
a few hours a.'l the clogged-up waste,
sour bile ai fermenting food gently
moves out ot tae bowels, and jou have
a well, playful child again.
Sick children needn't be coaxed to
take this harmless "fruit laxative."
Millions of mothers keep it bandy be
cause they know its action'on the stom
i«h, liver and bowels is prompt and sure.
Ask your druggist for a bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," which con
tains directions for babies, childTenf of
all ages and for grown-ups.

EQUITY PICNIC A BIG SUCCESS
The Equity picnic held last Sunday
at Anton Henle's farm Milford was
attended by about 800 people in spite
of the threatening weather. There were
two speakers present, one Ira M. Chryst
of Hudson, Wisconsin, whose topic was
"Equity and Co-operation", and the
other F. H. Schmeltzer of South St
Paul who spoke on "Co-operation in
Shipping of Live Stock." The picnic
was a success in every way and the
dance which was held in the evening
will net a tidy sum for the Milford Red
Cross. The rain, of course, lessened the
attendance at the dance but 117 tickets
were sold at $1 apiece. Everything
above the expenses will go to the Red
Cross.
Readers of the Review will do us a
great favor if they make it plain to the
advertisers that they watch for the ads
and read them carefully. This week's
paper contains two full page ads for
which the advertisers pay good, hard
cash. The advertisers will be even more
glad to know that you take note of their
Dubhcity than we are. Tell them about
it and help develop a good feeling all
around.

HAVE YOU BO'T YOUk
WINTERS COAL YET?
*It is again necessary to urge the
ordering of the winter's supply of fuel
and promptness in ordering and patience
as to delivery are as pertinent to the
situation today as the 1st of April.
The Fuel Administration emphasizes
the necessity of early ordding, because
by this means the administration will
be able to know what the actual require
ments of the country are, and will be
better prepared to make provision to
meet the requirements of the people.
2,000,000 Tons Short
The estimated requirements of anthra
cite coal in the markets for the year is
79,000,000 tons. To reach this aggregate
an increased production of approximately
2,000,000 tons will be necessary. The
production for the year 1917 was 89,
720,802 tons, but of this total production
but 77,1-33,305 tons was shipped away
from the mines, the balance being re
quired for consumption at and about the
mines.
No Anthracite For Manufacturer
To assure an ample supply to domestic
users who depend on anthracite, the
United States Fuel Administration has
recently declared the policy of with
holding anthracite from industrial plants
and will hereafter permit diversion of
anthracite from purely domestic users
only upon special permits from the
administration.
Limit Supply of West
It will likewise be the policy of the
administration to limit the amount of
anthracite coal going into the west
although the allotment to the markets of
the Northwest will remain substantially
the same as in former years.
Sure To Be Shortage
The Fuel Administration does not
make any concealment of the prospect
that there will be a coal shortage during
the year. The requirements for the
year for bituminous coal as ascertained
by the administration experts indicate
that the production will likely fall con
siderably short of the necessary amount.
The Fuel Administration is devoting
its efforts toward removing as far as
possible the deliveries of coal for domestic
purposes and essential war industries
from the freight congestions on the
railroads that are sure to come with the
winter season.

tiBOR UNfSflS^LAN
BIG DEMONSTRATION
Tonight Union Labor in this city wil\
have its first innings, so to speak, be
cause this will be the first time that they
will appear on the streets of the city
in a demonstration. The parade will
form at German Park at 8 o'clock P.
M., and will proceed from there to Third
North Street, thence to Minnesota
Street, down Minnesota Street to Third
South Street, thence to Broadway and
up Broadway to the Armory where they
will have a monster meeting.
500 Union Member Here
According to the organizers who have
been busy here off and on for several
months, there are at least 500 men who
have joined one or the other of the eleven
unions that have so far been organized
in this city. The organizing work has
been done largely by Jean E. Spielman
and Josh Brady, both of Minneapolis.
Eight Trades Represented
The trades so far organized are the
carpenters, painters, bricklayers, brick
and tile workers, flour mill workers,
cement workers, brewery workers and
bartenders. Besides that there is a
Union known as the Building and Trades
Union to which people are eligible who
are in the building work but do not
belong to any of the builders unions
hereinbefore mentioned. There is also
a Federal Charter Union to which a
number of laboring men are eligible
who 'cannot become members of any
of the other unions mentioned.
Speeches At Armory
At the Armory this evening speeches
will be made by Mary Cory, Secretary
of the Garment Workers Union of St.
Paul, Josh Brady of Minneapolis, In
ternational Representative of the Res
taurant and Hotel employees of America,
Jean E. Spielman of Minneapolis, Sec
retary of the Minnesota Trades Union
League, E. G. Hall, President of the Min
nesota State Federation of Minneapolis
and Frank Hoffmann, International Vice
President of the Restaurant and Hotel
Employees of America who will act as
chairman of the meeting. All the
speakers 'will discuss two questions:
"What Does Organized Labor Stand
For" and "Labor's Objection to Pro
hibition." The Union Concert Band
of this city will furnish the music for the
parade and also at the hall.
More Unions Planne
During the week meetings will be held
nightly by the different Unions which
have already 1 een organized and if con
ditions re favorable, it is contemplated
to unionize the cigarmakers and barbers
in the city this uesk and grant them a
charter. At the meeting to be held
this week delegates will be elected who
will meet later on to decide whether or
not they shall form a central body such
ES they have in the larger cities.
Everybody is cordially invited to at
tend at the meeting this evening and
a special invitation is extended to all
laboring men who so far have not joined
the Union, to be present and hear ar
guments showing the advantages of
having labor organized into Unions and
also to hear arguments advanced against
prohibition.
There will be delegations present from
Sleepy Eye, Nicollet, Courtland and St.
Peter. Mayor Eibner will be on the
platform and will extend a cordial wel
come to the outside delegations and say
