ST. LOUIS, Mo. March 20, 1918. “WE MUST WIN THE WAR.” Representing the United States War Department, I request the acceptance, by employers and em- ployes, as a basis for the immedi- ate settlement of existing, and the prevention of further ‘labor dis- turbances, the following program of adjustment, declaring it to be essential to winning the war; fur- ther requesting that it prevail in this district until the national pro- gram, now being arranged, is de- termined upon and placed in ef- fect: 1. That employers and employes recognize the principle laid down by the United States Council of National Defense of maintaining for the period of the war, funda- mental pre-war labor conditions. 2. Employers and employes de- clare their policy of no discrimina- tion against men who have, or have not become members of a union, and that no further efforts be made by either employers or employes to change pre-war labor conditions of ‘“‘open” or ‘“‘closed” shop. 3. That employers will enter- tain, without prejudice, applica- tians from their own employes, for consideration of requests pre- sented either by individuals, or by temporary departmental commit- tees. 4. Employers recognize the broad principle of wages adequate to the present cost of living, and both employers and employes de- clare their willingness to work this situation out harmoniously, ac- cording to the methods for doing so followed by them in the past. 5. This program I believe to be necessary to evidence the loyal support by this district of the United States Government in this crisis, and I urge its acceptance by all parties concerned. MAJ. W. C. ROGERS. (By direction of the Chief of Ordi- nance. ) a “It is hardly reasonable to expect us to agree to a plan as representa- tives of labor unions and then per- mit unauthorized individuals or de- partmental committees to act for themselves. This is at variance with our present methods which have been in existence for years. “The method of arranging the wages as suggested in paragraph 4 is acceptable to us if it means that the methods we followed in the past of having the authorized representa- tives of the wnions arrange same. Otherwise it would be aée radical] change in our standards. “Paragraph 5 is unnecessary; are all loyal citizens and we are ready to do all in our power to avoid strikes that have been precipi- tated by the cruel and unjust meth- ods used by some employers in deal- ing with their unprotected and un- organized employes. Reply by Labor Leaders. The proposal submitted by labor leaders, in reply, follows: “In accordance with the declara- tion of the National Council of De- fense and the interpretation thereo? which does not prohfbit any employe from exercising his or her inalien- able. right to become a member of a labor organization, to increase wages and improve working condi- tions, to maintain the standard of living, we offer the following pro- posals for handling the labor situa- we ‘tion in the city of St. Louis, pending the action of the joint board selected to form rules to regulate labor dis- putes, which is now meeting in Washington, D. C.: That employers will entertain written requests for changes in wages or conditions of labor of their employes, as presented by a committee or representatives of their respective labor unions. In the event of any dispute aris- ing between the employer and em- f ploye in regard to wages and con- ditions of labor, the employer and the representative of the em- ployes, members of organized la- bor, shaii endeavor to arrive at a settlement that is satisfactory to both parties; in the event that no settlement is reached, they shall refer the matter to the Depart- ment of Labor, or the War or Navy Department, when said de- partment is affected; and in the event that said conciliators of the Department of Labor or the War or Navy Department are unable to reach an understanding satisfac- tory to all concerned within a pe- riod of five days, said matter shall be referred to a committee of two from each party to the contro- versy, and the committee so se- lected shall appoint a fifth mem- ber of an arbitration board, whose decision shall be final and binding on both parties. The decision of the arbitration committee shall take effect from the date the dis- pute or lockout shall take place pending settlement of the dispute. It is further provided that the arbitration committee shall make a report in writings, and render its decision within 10 days. It is recommended that all strikes and lockouts now pending, or which may arise, shall be set- tled on the basis as provided in this proposal, and it is further rec- ommended that all persons _in- volved in said controversies shall be reinstated into their former po- sitions. It is further understood that noth- ing in this proposal shall be con- strued as abridging the right of employe to join or remain a mem- ber of labor organizations. Under date of March 21 the com- mittee of employers, after several conferences, wrote the following let- ter to Maj. Rogers: ; | “The gentlemen in conference with | you this afternoon cannot recede in any measure from the statement of | the Council of National Defense that | neither employer nor employe must | try to take advantage at this time !o| secure-even minor concessions over | conditions that did not prevail when | the United States entered the war. “We are quite agreeable to ary | clear language that makes obvious | that neither employer nor employe | lose ground in the conditions you in- | 2qually | vite us to accept, but are tirm that neither employer nor ¢€m- ploye shall gain ground in the prin- ciples which you set down. “With this point granted, uneyuiv- ocally, by all parties, other questions | may be made clear and satisfactory. | we believe, without much trouble. Labor Disclaims Responsibility. Labor organizations, upon receipt of the employers’ letter to Maj. Rog- ers, made this reply: “Organized labor is not responsible for present deplorable strike situa- tion now prevailing in St. Louis. But on the other hand it is perpetrated by some profiteering employers who have amassed fabulous fortunes as the result of abnormal tions, and their avarice and greed for larger dividends have steadily raised the prices of products or commod- ities that the workers are compelled to have in order to maintain re- pectable standards of living, with the resultant effect that the unorganized worker has found himself in a hope- less position to maintain standards of living that prevailed prior to the entrance of our country into the war. “And invariably when these work- ers have attempted to organize the employers have practiced the usual policy of discriminating against these workers by discharging those who ‘have identified themselves with the unions of their craft and refusing to treat with such employes, thereby denying ‘them the right that the em- ployers themselves enjoy, to-wit: “The right to organize fog their own protection, which our Govern- ment has on all occasions recognized. The representatives of organized la- bor are at all times ready and willing to discuss with representatives of the employers the merits of our counter proposition to that submitted by the employers.”’ The statement was signed by the following union officials composing the committee: Joseph Woracek, chairman, presi- dent Central Trades and Labor Un- ion; Maurice Cassidy, secretary, sec- retary of the Building Trad®s Coun- cil; David Kreyling, secretary Cen- tral Trades and Labor Union; R. T. Wood, president Missouri State Fed- eration of Labor; Martin Seeger, or- ganizer United Garment Workers; George Orris, org@nizer of the Car- penters’ Union.

Efforts of President Aloe to amend the bill as recommended by the Chamber of Commerce so as to abol- ish all taxes now paid by the com- pany except property tax, and to waive the city’s right to impose any special levy, were defeated by the Aldermen. Aloe sought also to re- quire the company to build not less than two miles of double-track ex- tensions each year, but in this, too, he failed. The resort to the parliamentary devise of considering the amend- ments in committee of the whole re- sulted in such a bewildering tangle, subsequently, that after two hours’ patient labors, the entire proceedings had to be renewed to prevent invali- dation of the bill. Neither President Aloe nor his secretary, William Osmer, both of whom are parliamentarians, could unsnarl the tangle and in despair the Aldermen ignored the report of the committee of the whole, and the task of con- sidering the amendments was be- gun afresh.

These 65 members of units known to have been in contact with the Germans on the French front, arrived recently at an Atlantic port and were sent di- rectly to the local hospital. Four of them are suffering from wounds and were probably under fire in one of the engagements between American patrols and German raid- ing parties. None of their wounds, however, are serious. George H. Bishop, infantry; Floyd M. Clark, infantry, and Manuel San- ders, field artillery, are suffering from gunshot wounds, and Andrew | J.

A PACIFIC PORT. March 2° (By A. P.).—Pending the arrival here tomorrow night or Monday morning of the auxiliary schooner Alexander Agassiz, captured 15 milics off Ma- zatlan, Mexico, last Tuesday, by an American warship as a suspected German commerce raider, Federal officials continued¢their efforts to unravel the mystery cf the vessei's ownership. Originally owned by the University of California and operated in re- search work at sea, the Agassiz was acquired in Junuary, 1917, by the Pacific Coast Trading and Shipping Co. of Los Angeles. For a time the little craft was engaged in trading on the West Mexican Coast and later in the same year her ownership passed into hands of persons un- known to the local Government offi- cials. Efforts to locate members of the Pacific Coast Trading and Shipping Co. proved fruitless. The Agassiz has been under the eye of the Government secret serv- ice agents for several months and, according to authoritative informa- tion here, it was known that the ves- sel had been outfitting as a commerce raider. When news of here imminent departure fram Mazatlan became known a United States warship was instructed to take her into custody. The craft was overhauled, her crew of five men taken prisoner aboard the warship and American satiors manned the suspected raider. Brief advices said the Agassiz was heavily armed. Government agents expressed the belief that the ship's crew planned to capture one of the Pacific mail boats of larger tonnage, transfer the armament of the Agassiz to the captured steamer and set forth on an expedition to destroy coast- wise and transpacific commerce.

Ship- ments were 103,000 bu; against 86,000 bu. May corn opened %c lower at $1.26%, then lost to $1.246% @%1.26\%e asked, with a rally to $1.26% @1.26%¢e bid.

The articles are written by corre- spondents on the scene who con- sequently are in intimate touch with the doings of the clubs and | thus qualified to erpress opinions. | The fourth of the series will de ') published in tomorrow’s Sunday Post-Dispatch. It will deal with the New York Giants, last year’s champions of the National League. PLO LO a we _Preereeaeae } | won 21 and lost 15 games with a | gixth place club, the Dodgers may | prove a great deal stronger than | they appear now. But because this Manager Robinson isn’t building his hopes too high. Jack Coombs has just about reached the end of his string. Marquard and Cheney, there is every reason to believe, should prove the mainstays of the staff. Considerable faith is placed in Clarence Mitchell, the south- paw obtained from the Reds last year, and Grimes. That just about covers the staff and there isn't much in it to brag about. Rus- sell and Plitt have not been tested under big league fire and there- fore, must be ranked as mere prospects. The Dodgers’ infield is in a de- is uncertain, cidedly muddled state. Jake Dau- bert. of course, is assured of the first base job, despite a marked slump in his batting last season. Previous to the purchase of Larry Lajoie from Toronto, which was completed only yesterday, Presi- dent Ebbetts had declared that Ollie O’Mara would be stationed at second. Ivan Olson at short and Chuck Ward, obtained from the | second and third, | Mamaux’ s Condition Is Cause of Much Speculation—Infield in| Badly Unsettled State, While Outfield Also Lacks Necessary , Slugging Strength. Pirates in the deal for Stengel | and Cutshaw, at third. _ Too Many Shortstops. Which may work out and may not, for the obvious reason that O’Mara, Olson and Ward are pri- marily shortstops. Both Ward ' and O’Mara will be placed in strange positions if stationed at respectively. But Lajoie is certain to draw they keystone assignment, which will leave three shortstops to be placed at short ang third. It is difficult to foresee how Olson can be dislodged. Indications now are that Ward and O’Mafa will scrap it out at the far corner. Zack Wheat and Hi Myers, both outfielders of great ability, have steadfastly refused to sign con- tracts. This leaves the club prone on its back for gardening mate- rial, Dave Hickman, aging rapidly, and Jimmy Johnston are the only outfielders of known worth on the club. There is, mercifully, small need to worry about the catchers. Qtto Miller, Mack Wheat and Ernest Krueger appear amply able to care for this department, in fact, Miller probably will do the bulk of the catching. The club has not advanced sufficiently in its train- ing work to select a batting order. This probably will not be done until Lajoie arrives at camp. The veteran Larry is expected, as a matter of course, to lend a big hand in the general bolstering of the club, especially if he can hit close to the mark he estab- lished in the Interfiational League last season. But on paper, this appears a hopeless job for one man to assume.

JOSEPH PULITZER. : April 10, 1307. roe } mene LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. The U. R. Barnacics. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. “Straphanger”’ complained of the U. R. directorr and says, “Cast off the barna- cles;” but the U. R. directors are not the bafnacles. The Post-Dispatch exposed re- cently and extensively the U. R. barnacles, viz., the influence of its borrowed capital, which demands a heavy toll, and it is a natter of choice to pay the toll or do with- out the. capital and without the car lines. The U. R. pays well to those interests and does its best, with the remhant of its earn- ings, for our service. Why not help the U. R. to increase its earnings and enable it to give us our desired service? A recent union labor meeting opposed U. R. increase of fares, even as they know that U. R. earnings regulate union car- men's wages, and quality of service. If the “service’’ automobile carried fares for 10 cents—it’s a good ride so far as it goes (not quite to your destination)—they ‘would be loaded to the guards and no com- plaints to the service or the 10-cent fare; but the «rvice car learned from experi- ence. An unpainted U. R. car goes by; aisles crowded with standing fares trying to see through unwashed windows where to get off, others jamming in and those already in trying to jam out; conductor standing on one foot, busy with the other and his “both hands,"’ works the door, grinds change, punches transfers and kicks the register; all for 5 cents. The motorman’s left hand to the motor, right to the air brake, one foot on the gong, other to trap- door, lets you out. When do you think | i your 5-cent service is complete? The com- pany has a splendid class of men for the Service; polite and accommodating as can be under stress of rapid transit. Mr. Strap- i hanger, if you want to ever let go that strap, increase the U. R. earnings and be seated. W. H. ELKINS. For the Missouri Building at Camp Funston To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. You will find inclosed $1 to start a fund for the State house at Camp Funston. I send this to the Post-Dispatch in realiza- tion of the wonderful successful funds you | | have raised in recent years. I am a drafted man, and suggest that each one of the boys contribute what they can, and in a little time we will have a/i place where we can hang our hats up any time and call it the Missouri Home. A DRAFTED MAN. (The dollar sent in by “A Drafted Man” has been turned over to Mr. J. A. Lewis, treasurer of the Camp Funston Missouri Building Fund, National Bank of Com- merce, St. Louis. All other contributions for this fund will be forwarded to him.— (Editor Post-Dispatch. Shaw’s “Missouri” Botanical Garden. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We came here to see Shaw's Garden; lo and behold, you stalwart and upright citi- zens now ask that central must have asked for “Missouri” in place of “Shaw.” Can a man not die and leave his life work (his monument)) to the citizens of a city like this without their erasing his very name from the tombstone? I say, shame on those who did it. Put the name of Shaw in your phone book and printed matter. Poor Shaw must have long since turned over in his grave when he learned how you citi- gens treat a legacy known nation-wide. MR. AND MRS. H. E. FRENCH. How She Does Her Bit. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. This may be helpful to others: I re ceived a letter a few days ago from my little sister, Hattie Burgess of Erie, Pa.

By: they were nothing of the kind. | Like Courland and Lithuania, Livonia these Baltic provinces the Czars im ported most of their Ministers, Generals and aq. visers. Many of these Russian junke statesmen prefixed their names with the feudal “von” and were the glue that @. mented the imperial friendship between Czarskoe-Selo and Potsdam. These Russian junkers of the Baltic provinces favored a separate peace with Germeny, while the Czar was still on hy throne. It was an open secret that the Czar was about ready to “kiss and make up” with his old friend Wilhelm in After the revolution of 1905 the Baltic junkers persecuted and murdered the rey. — olutionists like mad dogs. This the Rus. § sian revolutionists at home and in exis never forgot. When the Bolsheviki came into power © they were not slow in cutting the wings of the Baltic junkers. No wonder that the — same crowd looked to the German Kaiser and his Prussian junkers and militarigts for help against the Bolsheviki. These junkers of Livonia and Estland fp. vited and welcomed the Kaiser's army, — This explains the German occupation of these two provinces, Similar conditions prevailed in the Ukraiv.e. There the bourgeodise or capi- talist junker class established a Govern. ment in opposition to the Bolshevikl These Ukrainian junkers were ready to entrust their future interests to the Kaisers in Berlin and Vienna so long as the Hohen- zollerns and the Hapsburgs would deliver them from the Russian working class Gov. ernment! The Ukrainian capitalist rulers were gn- able to carry on a successful war against the Bolsheviki Government; hence they arranged with the Kaiser in Berlin to in- vade the Ukraine and fight the Russian revolution. It was this treachery of the Ukraine bourgcisie that enabled the Kaiser's army to continue its drive to Odessa within a few days. There was neither glory hor honor in these victories! A few more such “victories” will arouse the German people to decisive action.

The famous but | theoretic fellow whom his creator named Pithe- canthropus erectus was fashioned on the basis of a bit of skull, two molar teeth and a diseased | thighbone. For a time he was acclaimed the miss-| ‘ing link, monkey to man. But other scientists. who measured the bit of skull decided that the | entire brainpan might have contained as much as_ that of any man.

Now the dingo dog is said to have been introduced into Australia, in comparatively modern days, by mariners since Capt. Cook dis- covered the Antipodes. At Capt. Cook’s arrival, there were no dingo dogs. This suggests that the possessor of the Talgai skull came to Australia in a boat and brought some of his dogs with him, but that these dogs left no offspring, which is Prof. Jones’ conclusion. And he says that many other recent researches not only give the prece- -dence to man over monkey, in origin, but discredit Darwinian theory as to man's descent com- pletely. nd he is probably right. He might try a method which has sometimes There is no telling what. But there is deeper strategy in Ben Korte's lan of campaign than appears on the surface. JUST A MINUTE OUR OWN WAR REVIEW. XPERT opinion is not what anybody in the k paper wants just at this time. Everybody wants news. News has transcended in im- portance anything anybody could possibly know about war, and until it is known just what has hap- pened on the first page the entire field of specula- tion is closed. The Germans are making their Spring drive. making good that boast. The Germans are not quite like anybody else, and it was not easy to make out whether they were in earnest or not. It is not cus- tomary in army maneuvers to set a time for the at- tack and then to invite neutrals in to see it made. The Germans did this. They said Spring, and on the first day of Spring they hurled themselves at us along the whole front, no doubt calling upon the neutral spectators to mark how it is done. That seems in- credible, but almost everything the Germans do is in- credible. They are just an incredible lot. During a war conference on the editorial page the other day somebody pointed out that it was chiefly because what the Germans were up to was incredible to the rest of us that we are locked in that titanic struggle which filled the whole front section of the paper with smoke all day yesterday. There were plenty of people to whom it was credible, but nobody took them very seriously. It is not, therefore to be much wondered that the war itself, which had incredible causes, has been in itself incredible pretty much of the time. Socrates says he could back anybody down in a de- bate on that subject. Mr. Antwine, who is analytical, explains this phenomenon. He says the German has changed. This is what Otto Kahn says. He affirms that the reason so many persons of German descent sympathize with the Fatherland is that they think of it as they knew it, or as their parents knew it. That is not the Germany before which civilization stands at bay today. It is quite another Germany—a new and incredible thing under the sun. Very well. Answers says we can admit that so long as it remains incredible that the Germans can lick us. The confidence that they can’t do it remains un- shaken everywhere in the paper. Our morale is bully. Since the Russians are no longer on our side, every- body feels that we have nothing to fear from any psychological cause. Polemarchus says that when we got rid of the Russians we really stripped to fight. He has a theory that there are only five real fighting na- tions in the world, and that those five countries, which are the United States, Japan, England, France and Germany, will fight it out. Much of the war, in his opinion, has been little more than clearing dead cocks out of the pit. Just a Minute’s own opinion lies there or thereabout. We have said all the time what many people are saying in the paper now—that only the west front counts, and that on the west front the war will be lost or won irrespective of every- thing else that may happen anywhere else in the world. We were glad to have in yesterday Col. Rep- ington, who expressed that opinion. He says England wasted 30 per cent of her strength on the opposite theory before she woke up. Our own country, fortu- nately, is to be spared that mistake. Our own coun- try is going straight to the big tent. It is not inter- ested in the Mesopotamian fat woman, the boa con- strictor from German East Africa, or the bearded boy They said they would do it, and they are — ST LY A ete ney I, er enaeneetst aoe —— —~ a een ng a gO AO ay OO tna ee by Clark McAdams agg gt ee ent iia til ne ee ey me nO a gg a Writt#n for the POST-DISPATOCH from Saloniki. We want to see militarism ride the rail in the main performance, and we mean to stay for that concert in which the House of Hohenzollern shall sing its swan song. No sideshows, thank you. The case of Holland is amusing everybody in the paper. Holland is feigning wrath at us for seizing Dutch ships in American ports. She is doing that be- cause she is afraid Germany will walk in on her if she doesn’t. However, none of our top thinkers can believe that Germany is any more deceived than we are. It only illustrates the plight of any little country which has Germany for a neighbor. They are all in peril of something. Belgium is only a warning. They are all mice knowing not which way the cat will jump next. We are worried about the wrath of Holland— not. Fitz says we are not really in Dutch, but merely Dutch make-believe. Of course, they can’t do any- thing to us, anyway. They can’t open the dikes on us or put us into the treetops. They can only say what they are saying—with a wink like sunset on the Zuyder Zee. The end of the war is not far off. One feels that in the paper very keenly these days. Militarism has had its fling—and there is nothing in it. Anti-mili- tarism has walloped it, or will have done so before Summer comes. The thought world has been overcome by the thoughtless world. We are not to live by rule, but by choice—for which thank God! .

EYOND the stars once I dreamed I went With a mist in my eyes but my heart at ease, By the side of one whom the angels sent From the dewy fields and the crystalline seas. The birds were mute when we passed them by, (For the earth was still as a lone grave is still), Red roses drooped, and they seemed to sigh, “Ah, me—our souls have felt the bitter death's chair’ But when earth lay a picture afar And the frame was sky and mystery of space, We came to a land where singers ore Not mute or sing of a world’s disgrace. And beyond the stars were bird and maid Who sang of love as we wandered there— Ah, many @ rose was full and mrayed From the breath of summer in love's very hair. Then beyond the stars, I came to you.

From the Churchman. E wish that among the many meet- ings planned by the War Commis- sion for the Archbishop of York to ad- dress our fellow citizens here in New York there might have been one at Cooper Union or the Labor Temple where His Grace could have stood face to face with the East Side and spoken to its heart. He knows the language of their suffering, and he is not a novice in dealing with their problems, but it is hard for officials of our church to believe that the weakest aspect of the Episcopal Church in this country is the narrowing of its horison to a special class. His Grace asked to be taken through the East Side. Perhaps 20 one had thought to insist upon his seeitg where our poor dwell. He saw Fifth ave- i inue and Riverside Drive. He wanted to | know how our poor lived, but he wasn't given the opportunity to speak to them im their own temples. The Pilgrims’ Dinner was exclusive in price and invitation. The meeting at Carnegie Hall was popular only in a limited sense. Two-thirds of the space at the noonday services at Trinity Chureh was occupied by devout church women, 3 not even the clerks in and around Wall — Street were really given an opportunity to hear His Grace. When the lunch hor came the church was pretty near filled by Episcopalians who had leisure to sit there and walt. ' The other night at the Rand School of Socialism on the East Side, in the discus sion after the lecture, someone sald: “Would the Archbishop come and talk us?” “No!” their leader said, “he takes no interest in people like you.” The par ticular group in question was made up of young Jews and Jewesses largely from the East Side. That response did cruel inju- tice to His Grace. His ministry has for the most part been spent among the poor, but the poor of New York were not perm to know this. It is to be regretted that the War Commission neglected to see spiritual possibilities in the visit to Amer ita of the Primate of York.

We Americans had traveled, but not with our eyes open— “seeing, we saw not.’’ The first great question we faced was that of universal service for the war—or the selective draft. Again how far-sighted our President then proved himself. What would be our situation now if we had tried to go to war under the volunteer system? This question once solved, our President led us with a breadth of vision, an efficiency and on a scale commensurate with the size ef the undertaking in which we at last had become partners. Perhaps we are a littie overindul- | gent, however, in the treatment of the German enemy alien within our gates. No American singer or mu-'! siclan could travel about Germany at | will, unwatched by the police, col- | lecting money from Americans’ to be used in propaganda, or things much worse, against America.

Gen. Bragg. the Confederate lead- er, sent for a 19-year-old boy—Sam Davis by name—a trooper in the Second Kentucky Cavalry. Davis was a gentleman by birth, highly educated, strikingly handsome, and was clever and resourceful beyond his years. Bragg gave the lad in- structions as to what to do, and also gave him the name of a traitor in| the Union camp who would turn over a set of vitally important papers to him. Then Davis set out, eral companions, on his life-or-death mission. The young spy easily made his way | inside the Union lines. He got all the information, documents, etc., he had been sent for.
