Allied Printing Trades Council Duluth, Minn,. Street Car RECORD VOTE EXPECTED AT Delays SCHOOL ELECTION TOMORROW The heaviest vote in the history of the Duluth schools is expected here tomorrow when both men and women of this city will select three men to serve on the board of education dur ing the coming three years. Eight candidates are in the field. A bond issue of $300,000 will also be voted upon. Petitions having been filed by more than five voters the board of educa tion designated the following persons as candidates for a three-year term: C. Francis Colman, Frank Crasswel ler, John N. Peyton, J. G. Schaibly, William J. Farmer, J. G. Annand, Frederick D. Knight, L. U. Young. I Three directors will be chosen from the above field to succeed J. G. An nand, F. A. Brewer and C. Francis Colman, whose terms of office are about to expire. Fred, D. Knight, who is superin tendent of the stores department at the steel plant, is a candidate for the school board who is meeting with sup port from virtually all classes. A friend of labor and with prejudice for no class of men or industries, he I seems to sum up many strong qual ifications for a position on the board, Mr. Knight's greatest work of a public character is his persistent and tireless effort to induce foreigners to enter the night schools, to learn the English language and become good American citizens. He is an enemy to the hyphen. If elected to membership cn the board of education. Mr. Knight promises to exert his best efforts to boost the education of foreigners, and being widely known in the Morgan Park district, he believes he can be of great influence in bettering the citi zenship of the most rapidly growing community in the city. Mr. Knight has lived in Duluth 20 years and during 15 years of that time he has been engaged in the care and purchasing of materials. In his pres ent position he has charge of placing orders amounting to $1,500,000 a year. He is a strong backer of home indus tries and believes in purchasing ma terials at hofne whenever it is possi ble. thereby building up his home city and improving conditions for la bor. In speaking of his platform, Mr. Knight said that he was absolutely independent and free to work for all school interests best for Duluth as a whole. "William J. Farmer has been brought out by the Allied Printing Trades council to run as the represen tative of union labor on the school board. One of the main reasons that labor feels it should be represented is that the manual training courses in the schools have a large attendance and are annually turning out apprentices fpr the different trades, and in the opinion of labor, this particular branch should be under the most cap able instructors, thus giving to all students the right foundation to fol low up any trade to which they are best adapted with a foundation that is sound and practical. The Typographical union has made arrangements to help all graduates in the printing branch of the industrial section procuring theni. positions and in every way furthering their educa tion to make them fully competent. "Too often," says Mr. Farmer, "the early teaching of a pupil in this line works detriment to himself in future life, making hira incompetent and dis couraged, eventually causing him to give up in disgust." It will be the policy of Mr. Farmer to further in every way anything for the betterment of the school system— and will put forth every effort to build up the schools to the higest level of education. Many have been led to believe that a man not affiliated with the Commercial club would antagon ize, rather than promote the best in terests of the schools and the city, but Mr. Farmer can be depended upon to do the right thing ata all times. L. U. Young, local real estate man. bases his candidacy on a number of excellent principles, chief among which is his interest and activity in welfare work. Mr. Young is a close friend of Mayor Clarence R. Magney, and was active in promoting the mu-\ nicipal reading room on West Supe rior street and the public market. In fact, he has always shown himself keenly alive to the welfare of the peo ple as a whole, and being a man with a family of four children, he is nat urally interested in the schools. "If I a melected to membership on FREDERICK D. SATURDAY- THE LABOR WORLD •JULY 20, 1918. Both Men and Women Eligible to Cast'Ballot—Eight Candidates Are In Field—Three Members For Board Will Be Selected. the school board," said Mr. Young today, "I shall try to promote a more hearty co-operation between the city officials and the schools, and I shall also urge that the school buildings be available for the residents of each district 24 hours a day. In many cases janitors have opposed recrea tional work in the schools at night because it made them more work. I do not believe the janitors should be allowed to run the schools and curtail their usefulness, but they should be paid for the extra work they are re quired to do." Mr. Young was a member of the Trainmen's union when he was in the railway service and is a patron of union labor in every way. AMERICA LAUDS FRENCH REPUBLIC ON BASTILLE DAY Union Labor Joins in Felicita tions lo the Brothers of the Tri-Color. Special to the Labor oWrld.) NEW YORK, July 14.—Today, the anniversary of French independence day witnessed a tribute on the part of the trade union movement of America such as has never been ac corded in its history. Nearly every great international trade union in the United States ca bled its greetings and felicitations to pan-Germanism after the war. the people of Prance, together with solemn pledges from the workers of America to stand true to the cause of democracy until its victory is won for all time. The messages to France were ca bled today by the American Alliance for Labor and Democracy which vol unteered to act as the agency through which they might be collected in this country and forwarded to the French people as one great message of cheer, fellowship and inspiration. The greet ings of American organized labor will be published throughout France. As iti went forward to day to the people of the brave French republic, the message of American labor con tains the following messages: Front the Pattern Makers. "Brave, courageous France, we greet you on this your Independence day. Fighting now to maintain your free institutions, we are with you whole-heartedly in the struggle with all we possess, until victory shall crown the heroic efforts of the brave men, living and dead. Our boys are with you. millions more are coming, there will be no let up until the Hun has been driven back within his own border and the militarism of the im perial German government com pletely destroyed. With that as our purpose we look hopefully to the tri umph of our cause. "Pattern Makers' Leiigue of North America. "JAMES WILSON, President. Cincinnati, Ohio." From the Cigarmakers. "To the heroic people of Fiance, greetings and felicitations on your In dependence day. American workmen are^with you until the Hun is driven cut of France and the world made safe for democracy and justice.

NEW YORK, July 19.—The "recon struction" program of the German majority or government Socialists has I reached this city and is here madp public in substance for the first time outside a section of the German Jan guage press. The program, -virtually a- rehash of the Erfurt program, and no more in I keeping with the spirit of the civilized world, is only what has previously been put forth by the government so cialists, a weak-kneed program of po litical demands for domestic use, cou- SOCIALISTS' "RECONSTRUCTION" PLAN AID TO HUN AUTOCRACY Program Calls For Measures Clearly Drawn to Pro tect Pan-Germanism While Remainder Provides Typical Teutonic "Reform" Proposals, f61provision31Yo the ^Totection'of The 11rinninfll The principal demands are for fran chise reform, including equal suffrage for both sexes, a parliamentary sys tem of government, war to be declared by the Reichstag, ratification of treat ies,, abolition of secret diplomacy and creation of an international court of arbitration—all of them measures of a gind that, in modern civilized si ciety appear almost primitive. Kaiser Dictates It. The program was drafted by a com mission appointed by the government socialists in convention at Wuertzburg a year ago. The commission con tained no members of more than local note. Its report was made public ori ginally through the Berlin Vorwaerts. 1 The program for the transition per iod from war to peace cofitains pro visions recommending temporary con tinuance of food regulations, at least1 so far as the poorer classes are con cerned, regulations for food transpor tation and for distribution and export of raw materials, and for supervision of the entire German transportation system, including land and water tran sit. 1 Government regulation of the labor market after the war is recommended given industry or in any 'given point It is recommended that soldiers and their families receive compensation for at least a month after demobiliza tion and for a longer period if em ployment cannot be found. In matters of commerce and indus try, the program differs but little from the typical German socialist program. It calls for state 'ownership of mono polies and for supervision and regu lation of industries that remain under private ownership. This, it is declared is for the purpose of preventing un wholesome competition. In connection with peace negotia tions it is set forth that action must be taken for immediate discontinuance I of economic welfare, doubtless with the idea in mind that economic war fare can be discontinued by the adop tion of resolutions. Theaters are asked which would make impossible the "blockading and isolating" of German inland commerce through high tariffs. The program contains a series of so cial and political recommendations which have no international bearing and demands increased taxation on" inheritances and tares on incomes graduated according to the sisje of the income and according to earning capa city, including what is described as a tax on nourishing foods.
