Warren S. Stone

far as I,am concrned, the labor tw) movement begins and ends with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.” This statement of Warren S. Stone exemplified the trait in the great labor leader that subjected him to most criticism. What he said frankly of himself was more than once said, in bitterness, of the powerful organization which he headed. Other labor organizations have complained of the disposition of the -railroad brotherhoods to go it alone. Leaders of the less skilled railroad wqrkers, struggling to bring their organizations up to a position of power and mutual helpfulness resembling that of the Brotherhoods, have made the complaint. American Federation of Labor v officials desirous of the added strength that would result if the Brotherhoods could be brought within the federation, have done the same. B it Stone and his organization went their own way. The “aristocrats of the labor world,” they have been called. But, going it alone, they contributed* greatly to the aggregate power of organized labor and in very reeept years they led organized labor as whole in one of the greatest advances it has made. That advance is the education of labor in the nlysteries of modern finance. They pioneered in the formation of labor banks, which are now spreading so ste :dily over America as to have become almost commonplace. The man who stepped from his engine cab to become grand chief of his brotherhood was at his death not only the head of a vastly increased labor organization, but the head of labor financial institutions whose resources aggregated $100,000,000. He was making labor’s money pay its dividends to labor. He had taken the engineers’ savings out of hands that sometimes used it against the engineers. And labor organizations generally were beginning to follow his example: Stone’s philosophy was practical. Here is his attitude toward his fellow railroad workmen : “I do not believe in forcing men to join a union. If they want to join, all right, but it is contrary to the principles or free government and the Constitution of the United States to try to make him join. We of the engineers wer k willingly side by side with oii.er engineers every day who do not belong to our union, though they enjoy -without any objection on our part the advantages which we have obtained. Some of them we would not have in the union; others we cannot get. What I say is, make the union so good that they will want to join.” And here is his attitude toward railway employers: “After years of struggle the engineers have succeeded in organizing. They have blazed the path and fought some of the hardest battles known to organized labor. We are wholesomely respected now, and the door of every operating official is open to me because I have 72,000 men at my back. If I hadn’t I couldn’t get by the colored flunky at the door.” Stone had obviously the attributes that have led more than one American worker out of the ranks of the employed to become a captain of industry. He preferred to become a captain of labor instead. On the whole his was one of the notably useful careers of his time. . His Master’s Voice T“rjS a piece of diplomacy Secretary of State Kellogg’s open threat to Mexico has proved a dangerous boomerang. Just why no

That Monkey Story

By N. D. Cochran mT really wasn’t the scientists or evolutionists who started the story that man descended from a monkey or an ape. More than likely it grew out of the fact that Gome men discovered In others what they thought was a likeness to the monkey. It is quite common to compare some men to the fox, others to the lion and still others to a tiger, hyena, wolf, dog or even the snake. But that doesn’t mean that men so compared are descended from the whose peculiarities they are charged with possessing. Probably the monkey is moat often mentioned because more men seem to make morkeys of themselves than lions, tigers, hyenas, and wolves. Singularly enough the educated monkey who acts most like a human being appears to be the cutest. Some of them have been taught when and bow to use knife, fork, spoon and other eating tools; and some have learned to wear swallowed-tailed coats and regular pressed pants. Only those who take themselyes too seriously and other animals too lightly get feverishly offended when likened to the animals. Many eeem to like it. i

one seems to know, but out of the blue Secretary Kellogg saw fit to call Mexico down and caution President Calles that unless he looks after American interests down there a little better, the United States will withdraw its support from his government. In dealing with Mexico the secretary assumed the tone of master. He treated Mexico as France might treat Morocco, as a protectorate, not as a free and friendly power. Naturally President Calles resented the action, the tone and the implications. He could have done nothing less. Bluntly he dubs the whole! procedure an insult to Mexican sovereignty and flatly informs Kellogg that neither the United States nor any other country has the right to adopt such an attitude. Briefly, the United States went out of its way, certainly so far as the American public is concerned, to rap the Calles government over the knuckles. And having asked for it, Washington received right back a rap in return with interest. The incident is unfortunate. Coming upon the heels of a similar, though less resounding incident in Central America it is bound to Lave unfavorable repercussion throughout Latin America. Minister Summerlin, in Honduras, hasfjust served notice on the people of that republic, that the United Slates wants less trouble down there and that any attempt at revolution there will mean they have this country to deal with. It is very important to our prestige-* that we maintain good relations with our Latin American neighbors. If Mexico is on trial before the world, as Kellogg told Calles, so is the United States on trial before that same vast audience. The world is watching the treatment we mete out to our weaker American neighbors. A wise head and steady hand is needed in the State Department. Secretary Kellogg has yet to prove he has either. i Not So Bad a LOT of us are inclined to complain about ■**i hard times. But every once in a while we run into something that proves things are not so bad after all. For instance, the income tax figures. The income tax figures for 1923, just available, show that during that year 178,831 Hoosiers filed returns and that of tLese 3,462 had net incomes of more than SIO,OOO. The significant feature of the. figures, however, is the fact that 16 per cent<more persons filed returns in 1923 than in 1922, and that net incomes increased 23.32 percent. All of which isn’t so bad. Florida natives—a native is one who has lived there at least a month—continue to tell us how cool it is down there. Nevertheless, we notice a lot of them have come to torrid Indianapolis for their vacations. # * # Indiana didn’t have a bankiflrobbery for two whole days. That’s news! # # • Mayor Shank says he may support Walter Myers, Democrat, for mayor. We’ll wager Myers hasn’t been consulted. • * * The city plan commission Las its troubles. Recently the city controller questioned an expense account for having the'pants of the respective members pressed. Now the city objects to paying storage forfthe commission’s car. # # # Members of the Legislature could save a lot of explanation by saying what they mean when they write the laws-

For example, larg~ numbers of good-natured men band together as Elk, Moose, Lions, Buffalo and even. Eagles and Owls. They find admirable qualities in these animals and are not disturbed a bit by the fact that they wear tails. That the Grand and Noble Order of Monkeys hasn’t yet been organized may be due to the fact that there are too many human monkeys to get into one lodge, or even to the other fact, that there does appear to be tco much of a family resemblance. We shall not 3ay anything about the fact that some women actually refer to others as cats, because that doesn’t indicate a lovely spirit. Anyhow, there’s nothing in the whole thing to gi?t excited about while the weather's so darned hot. MOTORIST ON TRIAL Bv Timet Svcclal GOSHEN, Ind., June 16.—Trial of D. B. Fox of Chicago on a manslaughter charge was under way today before a jury. Fox is alleged to have been the driver of the auto which struck and fatally wounded Simon J. Hooley of Goshen.

Picnicking By Hal Cochran Come father, come mother, come sister and. brother, we'll hie on a picnic today. We'll fume, and we’ll fuss till we're all in the bus and then merrily off on our way. We’ll CM up our laps, and I don’t mean perhaps, with the finest of grub we, can buy. We’ll all have a hunch where we’d best spread our lunch, and we’ll argue, though no one knows why. Agreement we’ll reach on a trip to the beach, where there’s plenty of waber and air. l Our sandwiches grand we will spread in the sand. Then fwe'll eat of the sand which is there. Be son or daughter—forget to bring water, or spirit of picnic goes, flop. There's always the rub thaty you wash down your grub with a lokey warm bottle of pop. Cbme on, now, get busy; let’s hop in lithe lizzie and go on a picnicking roalm. ’Twill mak' 1 a big hit—but, of course. I’ll admit, you’ll be mighty dean glad to get home. Covurl n ht, 1915, XEA.

RIGHT HERE IN INDIANA _By GAYLORD NELSON

DEAD OR ALIVE — PREFERABLY DEAD UNTINGTON County bankers organized Saturday for protection against bank robbers. They have offered a reward of SI,OOO for every bank

bandit captured in the county "dead or alive, but preferably dead.” All over the State bankers are similarly organizing and posting rewards for capture of bandits. ‘‘Bring ’em in dead,” is the usual slogan a c companying the reward offer. "Shoot ’em down without words,” was the was the order

Nelson

given by the mayor to policemen detailed to guard Indianapolis banks. Likewise In Chicago, where a clean-up of gangsters and gunmen is in progress, officers have been instructed to shoot to kill. Doubtless the seriousness of the wave of banditry and outlawry demands drastic action. But w r hy is a dead outlaw so universally preferred to a captured live one? The law provides adequate penalty for punishment of such malefactors —if rigorously enforced. However leniency of courts and parole boards, and the successful obstruction of justice by shrewd criminal lawyers, which makes conviction difficult, enable bandits to escape proper punishment for their misdeeds. “Dead or alive—but preferably dead,’’ is an indlemfent of our lax administration of criminal Justice. MY KINGDOM FOR A HORSE SHE Department of Agriculture has just completed a horse survey of Wayne County (Ind.). Os the total horses in the county only 1.6 per cent were yearlings instead of the 6.7 per cent necessary to maintain the present supply. The situation throughout the country is similar. Equine production is far behind replacement needs. In consequence horses are getting scarcer and their market prices are moving upward. Horses have almost vanished from the cities. The Jingling spans drawing the open-faced barouches of the plutocrats ere seen no more. The kmbling dobbins and sidebar buggies of lesser citizens have likewise gone. Only a few milk-wagons and dispirited garbage wagons are still horse-drawn. But there is still work for the horse. On the farm he performs many tasks more economically and efficiently than can be accomplished by a baricing gasoline tractor with castiron brains. On the bridle path, for a proper display of riding habits, he is indispensable. For other purposes he Is also useful. What would the Kentucky Derby be without a few horses? The thunder of hoofs has echoed down the ages. Now though drowned by the honk of automobiles they must continue to echo somewhat. Not yet can we get along without them. The phrase “my kingdom for a horse" still means something.

Stage Verdict

English’s—ln the hands of the Berkell Players. “Cheating Cheaters’ is good hot weather entertainment. Light fun but answers its purpose. Lyric—A comedy bill with Britt Wood, the usual hit. Palace Peggy Hoffman croons pleasingly and the Mexican Serenaders dispense jazz. The bill runs too much to music.

In these days of so much bad booze there are lots of people who are nearly dead for a drink. The boy who promised not to drink l>efore he was 21 has a son who promises to swear off then. Very few people In ticklish situations seem to be tickled. The man of the hour has made his plans for years. (Copyright, 1925, NEA Service, Inc.) Patriotism To the Editor of The Times: In regard to your editorial "Why Parade.” Why don't you "take it for granted" that there is a demand for your paper and stop crying on the streets? Why don’t you take it for granted that the people know what you are going to write about and not write? Only people who are mentally lazy "take things for granted." Americans are not of the “take it for granted type. FRANK G. McCORMACK. In the editorial referred to we remarked that there was no need of Indiana citizens shouting “We are patriotic Americans," because this is a quality that should be taken for granted. Incidentally, we wonder if the mer estatement. "I am -a patriotic American." heard so often nowadays, really makes a man what he says he is.—Editor.

EVOLUTION ALL TOMMYROT E-IVOLUTION is all tommyrot. emphatically declared Raymond T. Richey, evangelist, at Cadle Tabernacle Sunday. “Don’t be fooled by what evolutionists tell you about the creation of man,’’ he counselled his hearers. “Don't be fooled by what evangelists tell you about the doctrine of organic evolution," the evolutionist might retort. Evolution may or may not be tommyrot but the controversy raging in press and pulpit over the subject Is ridiculous. Very few of those who denounce and defend it so passionately have studied biology or palenotology. Their opinions are the result of prejudice not reason. Scientists believe that complex living forms including man developed in orderly sequence from simpler organisms. They have accumulated a mass of observed facts that support this view. Others believe that living species, including man, sprang physically perfect and complete from a special act of creation. They have the backing of the Scriptures. contention can be absolutely proved. None of the present generation was present when organic life first appeared on the planet. The aim of science Is the search for truth. If the theory of evolution fails to harmonize with observed facts scientists will discard it of their own accord. If observed facts support it, they will cling to it despite joint debates, denunciation and acts of Legislatures. What difference does it make to the average man whether the doctrine is true or false? What he is, not what he was, is the important thing. He will be Judged by his own actions and conduct not because of his ancestors, whether they were Adam and Eve or tadpoles. WAR OF CONQUEST E*~' IMSLEY W. JOHNSON, in an address Sunday at the opening of Camp Shank the only naval reserve training camp for boys in the United States, declared that America fought only for defense of the American Flag and to preserve its institutions. “With pride Americans can point to a record of waging war not for territorial aggrandizement, but for preservation of her institutions and for humanity,” he said. The purity of our warmaking motives is often stressed by patriotic orators. And we adopt a _ national holier-than-thou attitude toward nations who engage frankly in wars of conquest. But other nations, particularly Latin-Ameri-can States, believe we are confirmed land-grabbers and war for territory. Perhaps they have cause. Since our wars with Great Britain the United States has engaged in three major conflicts with foreign nations, the war with Mexico, the Spanish-American conflict, and the World War. None of these was a war of conquest, but— Asa result of her defeat Mexico ceded to us territory now comprising the States of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and parts of Colorado and New Mexico—an area greater than all Europe outside of Russia. That was acquired by force of arms. From the hostilities with Spain we emerged with title to the Philippines, Porto Rico and Guam and guardianship of Cuba. In addition to these foreign wars the United States for almost a century was continually engaged In Indian wars. After every one of these conflicts the aborigenes lost land. They were ruthlessly pushed off the map. Only from the World War did America emerge without territorial accretions. From that we acquired only a magnificent debt. Such is the record. Despite the high motives that have impelled the United States to draw the sword has any nation gained more territor' by successful warfare in the pa A century?

Crook Eats Up Crook in Marcin Comedy; Laughs and Music on New Variety Bills

By Waller D. Hickman

mHE spectacle of seeing one bunch of crooks steal from another bunch of crooks is the theme of "Cheating Cheaters.” Max Marcln wrote this comedy on crook life some years ago when the crook melodrama was having Its day.

It still has its moments, but thea t r i c a 1 taste c h a nges every few seasons. The Berkell Players are presenting "Cheating Cheaters", at Eng lish’s this week. Asa warm weather bill it has its merits. In this sort of weather shows of this nature have more appeal than the heavier type. Marcln has constructed a play of four acts, each act try-

■*

MILTON BYRON

ing to deceive the audience as to how the play is going to end. Just who is who doesn't get straightened out until the final curtain. There Is a whole lot of “smart” crook conversation. especially when two sets of thieves try to put on society man- i ners. There is a good chance for some effective farcical acting. The show- this week belongs to Larry Sullivan as Steve Wilson, a crook, who impersonates a butler in a wealthy home. He stays in character and gets lots of fun out of the part. Regardless of convincing characterization. William V. Hull makes his character a comedy role instead of a character type. The fact remains that everything that Hull does gets bushels of laughs. And that seems to be sufficient. It Is a pleasure to see Edythe Elliott mount to meet the sentimental emotional demands In the last act as Nan Carey, alias Ruth Brockton. She has to shade the character in three different ways during the show and in this she is very clever. Milton Byron is seen as Tom Palmer, a character which turns out to be entirely different than he appears in the first act. Byron does a good Job along deceiving the real character of Palmer and even after the exposure he succeeds in keeping one guessing. The cast includes Tommy Evans (mighty good in a small part;) Fred Jenkins, Robert St. Clair, Idabelle Arnold, Martha Morton, Mary Hill, A1 C. Wilson and Bob Fay. Lights, scenery and general eeffct are all satisfactory. * Good .hot weather entertainment. At English’s all week. •!• -I- •!• • STUDYING BRITT WOOD VERY, VERY CLOSELY Britt Wood ia more than a story teller and harmonica player. Wood, at the Lyric this week is also a character actor. There is a certain type of rural adolescent, the wise boob, that Is found on the street corner of all "home towns.” Britt Wood has brought that character to the vaudeville stage and we laugh at him, whether we know what wo are laughing at or not. It could be tho mere storios that he tells us that we laugh at, for we have heard them all so many times. It is the character that brings the laughs and makes Wood a great entertainer. This underlying truth is the fundamental of fine comedy. Wood’s act is changed very little, the only addition that I could detect is a guitar with which he accompanies his “mouth organ” selections and an offer, to play any song number “from forty to a hundred years old.” The rest is Just Britt Wood, and that isl as it should be, fer he is unique in his kind of work. Os second importance on this week’s bill Is the act of Jack Barrett and company, called "Modes and Models.” This is a little revue hav-

THE SPUDZ FAMILY—By TALBERT

ing the services of Barrett and a number of girls. Display of styles is, of course, the most important part of the act. The costumes are beautiful, the sets pleasing and is done with the snap of a big revue. Hyams and Evans offer a snappy comedy act called "The Quakeress.” Deals with the attempt of the Quakeress to become an actress. It is breezy comedy done along original lines by people who know how. Gibson sisters open the show with a fast and clever dancing turn. Howland and Meehan easily please with their Irish comedy. The woman's singing In the act of Clifford and Purtelle saves the day for this team. The rest of It is rather dull comedy. Hazel Hazlam and company are seen in a comedy sketch, "The Girl in the Bath Curtain." The usunl question of vaudeville playlets, "How to Make Papa Como Across,” is Involved. Comedies, news reel and another interesting “Sportlight” Is the movie program. At the Lyric all week. — (By Observer.) ; -I- *l* -ISNAPPY JAZZ ORCHESTRA ON VIEW AT PALACE The Mexican Serenaders, headlining at the Palace, the first half of the week, prove to be a pretty snappy sort of jazz orchestra. They play popular numbers as well as "La Paloma" and other "typically" Mexican selections. The saxophone player Is unusually good

Milk should be pasteurized to protect consumers from any possible danger of receiving milk carrying the organism of infections diseases. Proper pasteurization, that is, at 145 degrees F. for thirty minutes, kills all diseaseproduclng organisms in milk. Properly done, the process minimizes infections from cattle that have not been tested and found free from tuberculosis and infections from certain human diseases such as diptheria, typhoid, scarlet fever and septic sore throat. The effect of*heat on milk has been the subject of much scientific reasoareh. Experimental evidence up to th* present time indicates that pasteurization at the temperature and for the time specified does not injure the chemical or nutritive values of the milk to any appreciable degree. It is possible that one vitamin In milk —the one which protects against scurvy—is injured or destroyed by pasteurization. This is of little Importance, except in the feeding of infants. To make up for any possible loss of this vitamin, orange or tomato Juice is given regularly when pasteurized milk is used in infant feeding. Is Denmark a Scandinavian country or do the people of the country merely call it that. What are the real Scandinavian countries?
