HOW VARIOUS INTERESTS RECEIVED GARFIELD’S ORDER _AND REASONS FOR ITS ISSUE || THE \PRESS—Some New York newspapers stigmatized it as a great disaster that will alarm our associates in the war and give aid and comfort to the enemy, while others, admitting its radical character, believe it wise on the ground that “it is better to call in a surgeon Chicago newspapers express the belief that it BUSINESS—Considers it a tremendous blow both to the wage earner and the manufacturer and is inclined to the belief that a better way, such as lengthening the hours of coal production and transporta- tion, might have been found, but all agree that the President and the fuel administration should have a more comprehensive grasp of the dire necessities of the country than any, individual, THE EAT SIDE—Business men, stunned by. the order, will meet to- day to arfange to protest to W situation does not warrant the application of Such a desperate rem- The loss of wages to workingmen. will PROTESTS—tThey ure pouring into the White House from all sections of territory affecte, by the order, proclaiming: that remedy is worse than the evil, and urging that less drastic means of dealing with the All demand the immediate revocation of Three reasons are givensfor this drastie aetion: First—Production of all war supplies, including coal-and munitions and excepting food, has far outstripped transportation facilities and America’s preparations for her part in the conflict will nof be delayed in portation difficulties will be greatly relieved 1f not entirely removed.

Mogt.o fthem said the ac- cumulation of unshipped product was not sufficiently large to make it ad- visable to shut down their plants. Fourthousand tons of coal a day, the’ estimated saving. under the or- der, is about one-fourth the daily consumption of coal in St. Louis, for railread, industrial and domestic use. | The coal saving’ will be divided about as follows; according to esti- mates made today in the differen: Gistricts: East St. Louis and Tri-Cities, tons; Aiton and East Alton, tons; Belleville, Edwardsville other places, 500 tons. kt the estimate, allowance was made for the burning of the coal which will be necessary to prevent damage from cold, as provided under the order. ‘ Estimate of Year’s Consumption. P. W.. Coyle, traffic commissioner of the St.. Louis Chamber of Com- merce, said that the industrial dis- trict of St. Louis, which includes St Louis, East St. Louis, Madison, Ven- ice and Granite City, uses 8,000,000 tons of soft coal a year. Of this amount he estimated 6,500,000 tons were @sed in St. Louis city and i,- 500,000 tons in ‘Kast St. Louis and the Tri-cities. in St. Louis he estimated the rail- roads used 1,500,000 tons of. the to- tal, and on the other side of the river approximately 400,000 tons an- nually. On the basis of Coyle’s figures the daily consumption of coal in Venice, Madison, Granite City and East St. Louis would be between 2800 and 2000 tons a day. This includes coal! used by the three big packing plants and food factories not affected by the 2000 1500 and _ Theaters in St. Louis Must Close at 10 P. M.

Breweries and other industries pro- ducing novy-essentials will be the first affected. It is probable, Cross- ley said, that they will be ordered to close one or two days next week. Appeals to Public. Crossley said he was making ev- ery effort to move enough coal from the IHinois fields to meet the Mis- souri demand and expected to be able to supply enough for public utilities and all the industries that are per- mitted to operate, unless the entire lilinocis supply is diverted by the Government to the East. If this is; done the requirements for St. Louis and Missouri will have to be subor- dinated to the nation’s demands. He appeals to the public to save all pos- sible light and fuel in homes during ‘the crisis.

WASHINGTON, Jan.-17 (By A. P.). Vigorous denunciation of Fuel Ad- ministrator Garfield’s order was voiced in the Seante today during ‘debate on Senator Hitchcock's reso- lution to suspend the order. “I do not presume to say the Fuel Administrator has made a mistake,” said Senator Hitchcock. “All I ask is that sufficient time be given be- fore the order goes into effect to permit the country to be heard. “The thing he did has béen called a national calamity. fhe Fuel Ad- ministration may be confronted with a serious situation in‘ trying to get coal for the ships we must send across the seas or in maintaining the railroads, but before taking ac- tion I think at least this five days. should be given.” Senator Hitchcock was interrupt- ed by Senator Vardamaf, a member of the subcommittee investigating would report very soon, and if, a’ postponement was effected, the Sen- ate would have the benefit of that. “T regard this order as a calam- ity,” declared Senator Vardaman. “The situation,” continued. Senator }. Hitcheoek, “is an argument for re- form as our Government. I econ where absoltue power for ¢0- eo-ordina- tion of branches of otrr Government that are now running wild.

It is such a revolutionary. order and in- volves evils of such extent that I consider it a wise thing to pause for five days while an investigation is being made.” Senator Calder of New York, Re- publican, supporting the Hitchcock resolution, cited how a shipbuilder protesting against the order today said his shipyard had enuypgh coal to run for three weeks. “fT admit,” Senator Calder said, “that what we need in this nation, in many of the-commissions, are men with business training who will plan in adyance and co- rdinate their work.” Senator Calder said one cause of the shortage was advice of the Fuel Administrator last summer to house-| holders and others against buying advance supplies and stating that the shortage was psychological and that summer buying would be deemed hoarding. “T cannot speak too strongly for this resolution,” said Senator Weeks, Republican, of Massachusetts. “'! manufacturer this morning who said the order means losirig $2,000,000 products of his company.

But what if there is this.contradiction? It is lightly and easily glossed over and reconciled in the saving concept of a war of de- fense. But the belligerents on the other side disputed this advantageous po sition ‘of being on the defensive which Germany sought. to’ assume, and did could not permit the defeat of Rus sia om the ground of. her own selt- defense. England gave as the mo- tive for her interference the imme-. diate danger to the British Islands which a ‘strengthening of Germany’s position at the mouth of the }Channel would mean. Finally, Rus- sia, too, spoke only of self-defense. jIt fg,true that no one threatened Rus- sian territory. .But national posses- sions, mark you, do not consist mere- ly in territory, but in other, intangi- | ble, factor as well, among them, the influence over weaker states. Serbia “belongs” in the sphere of Russian influence and serves the purpose of maintaining the so-called balance of | power in the Balkans, not only the balance of power between the Balkan States but also between Russian and Austrian influence. A Austrian attack on Servia threatened to disturb this balance of power in Austria's favor, and therefore meant an indirect attack upon Russia. Sa- sonov undoubtedly found his strong- est argument in Quessel’s words: “It would be senseless to believe that one wall could be torn away from the extremely complex ‘structure (Bu- rope) without endangering the se- curity of the entire edifice,” All on the Defensive. It is superfluous to add that Servia and Montenegro, Belgium and Lux- emburg, could also produce some proofs of the defensive character of their policies. Thus, all the cotun- tries were on the defensive, none was the aggressor. But if that is so, then what sense is there in opposing the to each other? The standards ap-) plied in such cases differ greatly, and are not frequently quite incommen- surable. What is of fundamental inlivows tance to us Socialists is the question of the historical role of the war. ‘Is the war calculated to effectively pro- mote the. productive forces and the staté organizations, and to actelerate ‘the concentration of the. working | class forces? Or is the reverse true, will it hinder in this? ‘This.material- istic evaluation of wars stands above all formal or external considerations, and in its nature has no relation to kithe question of defense or: aggres- sion. And yet sometimes these for- mal expressions about a war desig- nate with more or less truth the ac- tual significance of the war. When Fingels said that the Germans were or the defensive in 1870, he had least of all the immediate political and diplomatic circumstances in mind. The determining fact for him was that in that wav Germany was fight- ing for hcr right to national unity, which was a necessary condition for the economic development of the country and the Socialist consolida- tion of the proletariat. In the same sense the Christian peoples of the ‘Balkans waged a war of defense egainst Turkey, fighting for their right to independent national devel- opment against the foreign rule. = | | — ternational political conditions lead- ing to a war is independent of the value the war possesses from the his- torico-materialistic point of view. The German war against the Bona- partist monarchy was historically un- avoidable. In that war the right of development was on the German side. Yet those historical tendencies did not, in themselves, predetermine the question as to which party was in- terested in provoking the war just in the year 1870. We know now very well that international politics And military considerations induced Bis- marck to take the actual Initiative in the war. It might have happened just the other way, however. With greater foresight and, energy, the government of Napoleon III could have anticipated Bismarck, and be- ‘igun the war a few years earlier. That would have radically changed the immediate political aspect of évents, but it would have made no difference in the historic estimate of the war. diplomacy. Diplomacy here has a. two-fold task to perfo First, it must bring about war at the mo-: ment most favorable for its own country. from the international as well as the military standpoint. Expose Diplomatic Trickery. which throw the burden of responsi- bility. for the bloody conflict, in pub- |ment The exposure of diplomatic trickery cheating and knavery is one of the most important functions of Socialist political agitation. But no matter to vhat extent we succeed in this at the crucial juncture, it is clear that the net of diplomatic ‘intrigues io themselves signifies nothing Spore as regards the historic role of the clever maneuvers forced Napoleon i** to declure war on Prussia, al- though the actual initiative cams from the Germa aside. | Next fo" ws the purely — ra > * re itt ee eA.

Anil this apart fron: the actual suffering that must ensue among great armies of wage-earners who depend on. their day's wages for their daily. bread and who are arbitrarily con- demned to idleness by the fiat of ay | Federal bureaucrat. Mr. Garfield's plan to increase the. |supply of coal by shutting up the | United States is an act of folly and | | panic for which there is no prece- 'dént. Even Italy, which depends for fuel | | upon the scanty supply of coal doled | out by Great Britain and the United | | States, has never undertaken to close | down its industries in order to save) coal. Nor has France, where the| fuel problem has been acute from. the beginning of the war. That wild experiment in economic lunacy, wor- thy of a Bolshevik Government, has. , been reserved for the United States | | which has more fuel than any other | belligerent Government and a system | of transportation that is adequate to | every’necessity if it is properly used, | We cannot imagine what Mr. Gar- | field was thinking of when he issued | this order, nor can we understand | why President, Wilson permitted him to issue it. _ confession of incompetency. can be no more damning indictment The order in ftself is a!

Hauer of Chicago ALKALI MAKES SOAP BAD FOR WASHINGHAIR Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain: too muth alkali, which is ‘very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. . The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut vil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It’s very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all .to pieces. ¥eu can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han- dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out Nevery particle of dust, dirt and dand- -ff.— ADV.

A delegation called at the Mayor's} office to ascertain whether it wag in- tended to lay a double track, which the business men said would obstruct Gratiot street and greatly impede the movement of traffic to and from their establishments. Mayor Kiel ex- plained that the connection contem- plated would be o sia a single track. Mayor Kiel told a Post- -Dispatch repuorter that the “partial connec- tions” from the bridge to the Ter- minal yards in St. Louis and with the railroads on the. East Side would per- mit the movement of about 800 cars across the river taily. A. definite understanding with Di- rector-General of Railroads McAdoo as to the Government’s control and operation of the Free Bridge is ex- pected by Mayor Kiel within the next two or three days, he said.

SIMONDS RESIGNS Military Writer Leaves Staff York Tribune. \ NEW YORK, Jan. 17 (Special),— Frank H. Simonds: yesterday 4n- nounced that he had resigned from _the editorial staff of the New York Tribune. Simonds had been con- nected with the Tribune since Feb- ruary, 1915, when he left the edi- torial staff of the Evening Sun. Since the beginning of the war Simonds has attracted wide attention by rea- son of his elaborate editorial and news writings respecting the prog- ress of the war. ‘His articles have appeared frequently in the Post-Dis- patch. Simonds declined to make any comment upon a report that his resignation followed a difference of opinion in the editorial council of the Tribune. Prior to his service with the Evening Sun he had been con- nected with the Evening Post and other publications. Simonds made two trips to Europe seeking materia! for his miltary writings.

The of- fering was Verdi's “Il Troévatore,” sung in English: and although mu- sical epicures might find some things not to their palate, it was undoubt- } edly more than fair value for the price. The attendance was moder- ately large. Perhaps the most noteworthy fea ture of the performance was the un- flagging snap and vim with whick every one in the cast, principals an i chorus alike, carried on the action. It was easy to see that each did his best, with sincerity and spirit. There was even a surplusage of zest in the Anvil chorus.

He has been before the public mor years than it would be kind to recall, and corpulence gives him the gen- eral architectural lines of an in-'| verted pyramid.

Drug- xist Brown aiso says the right time to stop the drink habit is at its beginning unless you want drink to deaden the fine sensibilities of the husband rou love. Begin with the first whiff of liquor on his breath. but do not despair if he has gone from bad to worse until he is rum-soaked through and through. Drug- cist Brown kKnoWs the curse of strong drink because he himself has been «a victim. He Was rescued fromthe brink of a drunkard’s grave by a loving sis- ter who, after ten years’ time, revealed | the secret to him. Shé saved him frem drink—-rescued him from his own de- praved self, by giving him a seoret rem- | edy. the formula of an/,old German chemist.

Whether there was much advan- tage in singing the score in En- glish may be doubted. Here and there a word or a phrase was inte}- ligible, but it was just as likely to be some banal remark such as: “I am not your child; who am I?’ But mostly the text might as well have been Choctaw. There was just as brisk a sale of librettos as there is when the opera is given in Italian. The stage settings and costumes were unexpectedly good, and the | singing of the small chorus was spir- ited.

Knowing that the Post-Dispatch always stands for justice, I ask the privilege of having this letter published in its columns. I read in one of today’s papers an ac- @ount of the discussion of woman's suf- frage in the House of Representatives at Washington. -I was shocked at the low level upon which Congressman Ferris of Oklahoma expressed his views on the subject under discussion. This was his statement: “How can a negro wench dominate more than one negro buck?” We know from the tenor of the debate that Mr. Ferris did not use the word “wench” in its old Anglo-Saxon purity. | I want to express my honest conviction that one of the happy results of the world war will be that this virus of race preju- dice which too long has shamed and afflicted our beloved land will be washed away by the commingled blood of our American soldiers gathered from all race stocks under the flag. In this world war our honored Presi- dent has ‘furnished in his remarkable state papers the slogan for this nation and all other nations that all the world is to be made safe for democracy. There- fore, the spirit, the sentiment, and the expressions of democracy ought to be who stand so close to our President as do the Representatives at Washington. If God remains on His throne and the republic lasts (and we have no doubts in either direction) all women and all men regardiess of race or creed will yet stand on a common level under a common flag in-this land. These negro ‘‘wenches” to whom the Congressman refers are wil- lingly and with patriotic ardor giving their sons, brothers and husbands to fight and die in the. trenches of Europe for the cause of humanity. .And they make this sacrifice in tears, but with enthusiasm. The sons of these negro ‘“‘wenches,” let me assure Mr. Ferris, will be true to the record of their fathers, who have never It is altogether a discordant, un-Amer- fean and a disconcerting note for a Rep- resentative at Washington in these seri- ous. to use such brutal and vulgar en referring to a large portion this hour. I wonder if Mr. Ferris re- where in France’ go over the top with their characteristic dash and courage they will not go from a “jim crow” trench.

Many care were cold; AN APPRECIATIVE CITIZEN. eee , THE TEST OF GARFIELD’S ORDER. We are at war and, therefore, whether individ- ually we regard the drastic order of Fuel Admin- istrator Garfield as wise or foolish, we must cheerfully submit to it as a necessary sacrifice of war. The individual interest must yield to the national interest. “a Dr. Garfield issued the order in his official ca- the thoughtful conclusion of the best business men now gathered in Washington—the captains of industry, finance and commerce—who ought to be capable of judging the situation and the wis- dom of a temporary cessation of industry in a large section of the country as a necessary step towards the rehabilitation of transportation and industry throughout the country. : The President approved the order and we may / assume that he had the best expert business and professional advice on his action. - The test of the wisdom of the order, which closes all except absolutely necessary industries east of the Mississippi River for four working } days, Sunday being included, is the.question of ne- |. cessity to protect the life and health of the people and to protect the country from greater losses and disasters through. continued and growing trans- portation congestion and-coal shortage. In short, is the surgical operation necessary? Is it not better to have a surgical operation than prolonged illness and disability, ending possibly in complete collapse? The necessity of the order cannot be judged without full knowledge of all the facts, but cer- tain patent factors can be considered as a help to sound judgment. The factors are: 1, Weather conditions which for days paralyzed transportation and contributed vastly to the coal shortage already severe on account of the speed- ing up of industries, the lack of adequate trans- nv facilities and of the coal supply mined compared. with the unusual demand. 2. The necessity of protecting the people from suffering and death on account of the fuel short- age. 3. Overproduction. The long-continued speed- ing up of industries has resulted in production far. in excess of transportation. There is a congéstion the shutting down of many great industrfts, re- gardless of coal supply. 4. Many industries are now suffering losses on account of partial stoppage, delays and uncer- tainties in transportation and coal supply. Panic and the wild view that the country is going to the bow-wows on account of a five-day holiday is unmitigated folly. Shut-downs in great industries are not uncommon. They have been numerous in the past. They occur annu- ally. They are caused by overproduction, depression, changing business conditions, the necessity of overhauling machinery, strikes and other causes. The great steel, textile and allied industrie; now and then shut down for periods far exceeding the five-day closing of the present order. The only difference between the usual closings and this governmental closing is that many more industries and many more wage earners are affected at once. But a five-day holiday, while inflicting hard- lions of wage earners, is not deadly. No one will go bankrupt or starve on account of it. Fortu- nately, wages were never higher nor employment more general. Labor never was better prepared for a short cessation of work. So far as war supplies are concerned, reports show that nearly all plants engaged in war work are far ahead of shipments. While submitting to this war hardship, we have a right te insist that the problem of relieving railroad congestiqn and coal shortage be attacked with efficient capacity and energy. We demand such speeding up of railroad efficiency and coal mining efficiency that the situation will never recur. The fina) test will be results. The final justi- { fication of the order and the judgment of the people will rest upon its effect in the resumption of all industrial. activities. A'GERMAN CARD. The report of the German political “compro- mise” whereby, it is said, the militarists have agreed to forégo annexations at the expense of Russia but are to have a free hand in annexing conquered territory in Belgium and France is plausible. The junkers at most have given away only the shadow of their aspirations, but have retained the substance. Annerations either east or west depend upon German military victory over the western allies. If the allies are victorious, whatever territory Germany may have seized will be torn away her in the treaties which end the war. The pacity, but it must bévessumed that it represents | | ing it for all it is worth. Itisa good card to stay ) for the pacifists in enemy countries. The most significant thing .about the “com- promise” is that the militarists have been com- pelled to a show of any kind of compromise. - A Ae. -_-_-_—__o THE MESSAGE OF BRITISH LABOR. British popular thought appears at its best in the message sent to the Russian people by the Labor party, which makes itself the spokesman of the common man in the British Isles. We heard much at the opening of the war about the danger to British nationalistic, and especial- ly commercial, interests, with German influence dominating at Antwerp and the mainland coast ‘of Western Europe. This message repudiates any idea of imperialistic or other distinctively national aims, disavows any desire for annexations or in- demnities: in short, denounces a war of con- quest for tangible of even intangible advantages. The message closes with an impassioned appeal, of which this is part, addressed to the common men of Germany: Peoples of Central Europe: Thjs catastro- phe of the human race, this fatal schism in the civilizea world, can only be ended by the de- feat of militarism on“ both sides and by the victory on both sides of moral and intellectual fair dealing. If the world is to be saved, it must be saved by good faith and reciprocity on the part of all. Do not fail us now. Do not let your Governments drive the British people, as they are driving the Russfan people, into the terrible choice between continuing the war and abandoning the only principles that can save the world. England, too, has had its junkerism, differing only in degree from that of Germany. Its cap- italism and imperialism have been respqnsible for many injustices since the opium war with China. But how completely have unworthy factors and incentives been submerged in the deluge of war. England has always had a powerful element that was linked in thought and sentiment with Amer- ica’s democratic. progressivism of altruistic aims. A triumphant future is being afforded this ele- ment by the developments of the war.. The only justification now found for the continuation of the war is not distinctively British interests, but the interests of other and less fortunate peoples. The flag under which machine guns used to mow down semi-civilized tribes for the advancement of British trade now leads the column battling for the elevation of distant poole and against trade exploitation. In fighting autocracy in other lands, the bel- ligerents, including ourselves, are winning victo- ries for a purer, more unselfish democracy at home. | ———_ — — rr of products at all ports and most freight stations. | This overproduction would inevitably lead to} ships and losses on many industries and mil-| THE ONE WAR AIM. | Sir Walter Lawrence hit the’nail on the head | when he said the one thing to do is to crush Prus- | sianism and everything else will follow. | Specific war aims do not signify much, except as proofs of the renunciation of gain and gréed for conquest and power, and a desire for just . ~~ Se aed aft eo xe fo eek hae ipliese pyr oy, & .

Prussianism in power ‘s-the sole obstacle to a just democratic peace. If we do not defeat the Prussian military forces and destroy the Prus- sian imperial despotism we gain nothing. If we do we gain everything. All just war aims will follow. The conclusion is plain. We must whip” the Kaiser's armies. If the Prussian imperial despot- ism is overthrown by revolution, so much the bet- ter. But we cannot count on revolution. We must fight with all the resources at our command.

Four decades ago “‘Fred” May was a prominent | figure in the newspapers of the country. He was the highflyer of New York City in the days of the original “400,” when one could count the so-called | men about town (who were also the Beau Brum- | mels of the country) on one’s fingers. He and James Gordon Bennett were leaders in the young- er fast set of society. When the Astors and the Vanderbilts, the Whitneys and persons who hag a Dutch Van or a German Von as a nomenclature prefix meant the wealth and position of the com- | munity, if not the whole country, he was a co-| tillion leader. St. Louis was just pushing to the front then, and Chicago was ridiculed as a city of wind, while New York was supreme, and, | for that reason, the news of New York in those days was more interesting to the rest of the coun- try than that of anywhere else in the world, not excepting London or Paris. May was wild. His escapades were heralded to all parts of the earth. He was an athlete, and his favorite pastime was walloping policemen, prize | fighters and all kinds of “huskies” of the under- world or men in his,own set. There was hardly a day that his name did not feature the néwspa- pers as the principal in some new and novel frolic. ’ And thén came the climax—an episode in his frolicking life that changed the man of: convivial habits into one of sober thought, one whose only idea was to offset previous notoriety by a life of simplicity. The turning point came when he fought in the street with James Gordon Bennett in front of the old Fifth Avenue Hotel, then the iiptown of New York. Files of old newspapers show that later a duel was arranged between the two men the Palisades, at the west bank of the Hudson, almost on the identical spot where Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr met. Bennett fired his shot in the air; May’s bullet did not injure him, so both were satisfied. Later May fled to South America and triéd to hide himself from public view. But he was born to the limelight, for afterward he became a hero by saving the lives of American sailors from a and it was consummated on the classic hills of mob at Valparaiso and later women and children from a shipwreck May's last years were devoted ‘e ddine nies to others. And so he died, well thought of by those for whom he had done good and ‘forgotten by | enemies he may have made during the escapades of his youth. i, MORE GOVERNMENT CONTROL. POPSIDOODLE, Kas.—An interesting experiment in government control is being made here. The cost of living became so high that the people of Popsi- doodle asked the Government to run their affairs for them until the end of the war. They agreed on three meals a day as an operating basis, with just enough fuel and clothing to keep them warm. The experi- ment began on last Monday morning, and everybody seems pleased with it. The able-bodied men in the community report to the government for work at 8 o’clock in the morning, and work for eight hours un- der a federal superintendent without any other return than to have their homes kept up. The proportion of the male population actually working has increased about 50 per cent over what it was under individual initiative. Requisitions for necessaries are issued after investigation, and lending things is absolutely forbidden. One of the first things the government did was to make everybody who had borrowed any- thing return it. All waste has been eliminated, and the condition is so ideal that people are moving into Popsidoodle from all 3% asses country. The German scientist in the play ‘‘Efficiency’’ who made semi-mechanical automatons of the Kaiser’s crippled soldiers and sent them back to the firing line, had nothing on the local concern which adver- tises that it is the manufacturer of hot water ap- pliances and heating enginesrs. If this heating en- gineer is something like an ambulating oil stove that follows a soldier over the top, our boys in France probably would not mind having some of them this cold weather. ™ = The Bhenische Westfalische Zeitung (ihink of cry- ing that on a street corner!) says Trotzky is intel- lectually superior to the representatives of the Cen- tral Powers at Brest-Litovsk. Why don’t they take the tip and send a few German newspaper men against him? ' Written for the POST-DISPATCH \ = Clark McAdams SAINT LOUIS.

RUTH BALDWIN CHENERY. ee | Naturally in a good humor because of his reappoint- ment, our Postmaster lets it out to the reporters in an ecstatic review of his first term that he is working 18 hours a day. Or did he mean that? Since we read Mr. Ruffner’s explanation of how the water comes over the dam at Keokuk, we want to be Sure that the respect in which every business is peculiar to itself is made clear to us. If our Postmaster meant that, and is working 18 hours a day, we protest against it. We don’t want to work anybody that hard, and don’t want anybocy to let us work him that hard. The whole Government ownership movement collapses at that point. Ask Trotsky.

Men who bowl for pleasure take the alleys-and play on the same team with men who con- duct alleys or own them. Wooster Lambert, the wealthy business man and .Martin Kern, prdprietor -of the Hamilton alleys, will probably both go to Cincinnati to compete for part of that $30,000 cash prizes offered for | high men and teams. Even the wom- en’s city tournament, recently rolled here, was for cash prizes, as will be the women’s national championship which follows the A. B. C. event at Cincinnati. Yet the bowling world struggles along without noticeable quarrels, bickerings, scandals or trouble of any kind, that we have been able to hear of. The same condition prevails among the trapshooters where we find that in 1917 W. H. Heer was high amateur shooter of the country, after prev- iously, in 1913 and 1910, having been high professional. Some day the amateur is not going to be such a hoity- -toity person as the A. A. U. strictly purists wéuld have us believe. It ought to suffice that an amateur is not in the game for the money in it; is not making a living out of it. But it doesn’t, it seems. ‘ivenail CABANNES RETAIN LEAD IN MAJOR PIN LEAGUE While the Union Sodas got the big total of the night, 2944, in the Major Bowling League last night, the Ca- banne team held its one-game lead. eters ver = 2 -" wr tac e The game was har ment in the Ama and was warned game would still . disfavor with the — heads.
