McConnell, deputy United States commissioner of immi gration for Oregon, Washington, Ida ho and Montana, has started a move ment to have the Idaho legislature en act an employment agent law similar to the initiative i measure recently passed in Washington state. Commis sioner McConnell is cooperating with the carpenters' unioa of this city. The local union . has received a draft of the measure and has asked Senator Jerome J. Day to introduce it Commisioner McConnell has sub mitted a number of affidavits made by laborers at Pocatello, Idaho, in which affiants state that they paid to William Caravailis various amounts to get and retain jobs. , '- Commissioner . McConnell .stated that Caravalis so completely control led the employment of foreign labor ers that none secured employment ex cept through him and no foreman would give any one employment there in' the railroad shops unless they had a written statement from Mr. Cara valis.

As many mules 14 to 20 years old have ; teoth as good as those of their 10- year-old "brothers," not- a few or Uie animals accepted on the army con tracts have already served, on f rms more than a decade. The old mules bring the sme prices as the , young animals, and as the latter are worth bring in domestic markets, it is pro fitable, if ungrateful, to send the , 10 and 20-year olds to the battlefields :of Europe. : Tho British army buyers ' require I that the mules offered them stand ! 15.1 to 15.3 hands high and measure 66 inches around the girth and seven inches around the shin bone.
