release of all political prisoners will
do much to tranquilize our country
and re-establish normal times."
This declaration was made by
President Gompers in a plea to At
torney General Palmer for a general
amnesty to all political prisoners.
With President Gompers were Vice
Presidents Valentine and Woll and
Secretary Frank Morrison of the A.
F. of L. officers of various national
and international unions and the sev
eral A. F. of L. departments and other
trades unionists. The meeting with
the attorney general was in compli
ance with a resolution adopted by the
last convention of the A. F. of L.,
which unanimously declared for an
amnesty.
President Gompers said the unani
mous adoption of this resolution was
remarkable because no group of citi
:ens were more loyal than the organ
i
.ed wage workers. He called atten
tion to labor's declaration of loyalty
'n the event of war made three weeks
before this country proclaimed a state
of war. The attorney general replied:
"You don't need to defend the loyalty
of the A. F. of L., Mr. Gompers."
"Our action at the present time is
not without precedent," continued the
trade unionist. "We ask for the liber
ation of political prisoners. The es
pionage act was passed as a war time
necessity, and now we are no longer
at war. We would like to see those
men and women liberated who are de
tained for crimes that would not be
crimes in times of peace."
Meyer London, former congressman
and attorney for the United Hebrew
trades of New York, followed Presi
dent Gompers. He said the mere re
lease of imprisoned men and women
was not sufficient, and that amnesty
would have to include a pardon. In
reply to an interrogation by the at
torney general to the effect that lib
erating prisoners might lower the
morale of the people in the event of
i another war, Mr. London replied that
in his opinion it would have the oppo
site effect.

I KIDDIES FACE DARK
FUTURE
1
New York. Hopeless conditions
and a dark future for Europe's child
ren was painted by Dr. Livingston
Farrand, of the American Red Cross,
on his return from a trip abroad,
He said the most conservative esti
mate by the Red Cross, indicates that
at least 11,000,000 children in Europe
arc fatherless from war and they face
the next few years without hope of
adequate care unless outside assist
ant e is given.
"When to these orphans," said Dr.
Ferrand, "are added the millions of
other children undernourished and
under developed physically and men
tally, the dangerous situation is ob
vious. It is this generation, devital
ized and neglected, upon which in a
few years the stability of Europe must
rest."

THE FRONT SEAT.
When 1 was hut a little lad I id
ways liked to ride,
No matter whut the rig we bad, right
by the driver's side.
The front seat was the honor place
lu bob-sleigh, couch or back.
And I' maneuvered to avoid the
cushions in the back.
We children used to ^ramble then to
share the driver's seat,
Vnd long the pout 1 wore when I wfli
not allowed that treat.
Though times have changed and 1 am
old 1 still confess 1 race
With other grown-ups now and then
to get my favorite place.
The auto with its cushions fin* and
big and easy springs
lias altered in our daily Uvea Innu
merable things,
But hearts of met) are still the same
as what they used to be,
When surreys were the stylish rigs,
or so they seem to me.
For every grown-up girl today and
every grown-up boy
^tlll hungers for the seat in front and
scramble# for its joy,
And riding by the driver's side Still
holds the charm il did
In those glad, youthful days gone by
when I was just a kid.
I hurry, as I used to do, to claim that
favorite place,
And when a tonneau si at Is mine I
wear a solemn face.
I try to hide the pout I feel, and do
my best to siuile,
But envy of the man in front gnaws
at me all the while.
I want to be when? I can see the road
that lies ahead,
To watch the trees go flying by and
see the country spread
Before me as spin along, for there
I miss the fear
That seems to grip the soul of me
while riding In the rear.
And I am not alone in this. Today I
drive a car
And three glad youngsters, madlj
strive to share the "sent with
Pa."
And older folks that ride with us, I
very plaiuly s"e,
Maneuver in their artful ways to sit
in front with me,
Though all the cushions In the world
were piled up in the rear.
The child in all of us still longs to
watch the engineer,
And happier hearts we seem to own
when we're allowed to ride,
No matter what the car may be, close
by the driver's side.

O
Last Night's Dreams
—What They Mean
EATING.
Trious
HE question of eating is a very se
and unsettled one in Dream
land and about it the authorities dis
pute
as
acrimoniously as do thot»e giv­
en to the eating habit In the world
of realities over who is responsible
for the present higb cost of living.
A'-cordim: to some, to dream that you
are eating in company with others,
either at the family dinner-table or at
a banquet, Is a sign that you will be
successful in proiitable undertakings
and that your surrounding* will be
pleasant
and cheerful. The opposing
school warns you to beware of attend
ing a dream banquet as that signifies
that secret enemies are plotting
against you. recommending only a
small family party at the table. To
divatn of eating at all, say some of
the oracles, means that you are going
i» spend money foolishly, to which
ilie other sid retorts that every one
lines, sometimes, spend money foolish
ly but not on the banquets of Dream
land,
which are attended with profit
and
success. Perhaps the reason for
this disagreement of the mystic au
thorities is that the old saying "What
is one man's meat Is another man's
poison" holds good In the realm of
shadow as well as out of it and that
the phantom food of dreatn tables
•.rives nourishment and strength to
some egos while it gives others psychic
indigestion. As the authorities refuse
to agree on the eating subject the read
er must determine It for himself. The
next time yon dream of eating ob
serve what happens and then say
which school of mystics is right. As
to different articles of food even the
pessimists admit that It Is a good sign
to dream of eating broiled meat. Po
tatoes are looked upon with favor but
the ban is placed upon turnips, as they
mean quarreling, and salads are de
clared to he distinctly unwholesome.
Oysters, especially if raw, are the most
highly recommended of dream foods.
Katen in any form they denote friend
«*hip and If raw splendid successes.
All the pessimists can say against
them is that they mean that you are
going to become a gourmand. Many
hold that to dream of being at a ban
quet means that you will soon go on
a Journey or will change your resi
dence or place of business. These
same people say that while It Is un
lucky to eat at a dream banquet your
self. to see others eating foretells great
success in all your enterprises. If you
are unmarried you shall wed the one
you love and live happy ever after with
riches and dutiful children,

REPLY TO RYAN
Plate Printers Pledge Every
Assistance to A. F. of
L. Program
Washington.—Trade unionists in the
nation's capital quickly replied to
statements by P. J. Ryan, an attorney
at law, to the effect that "Gompers
can't deliver the labor vote."
The statements were cleverly in
terwoven with reference to Ryan's
former connection with the Plate
Printers' Union and the central labor
union. At a special meeting of the
plate printers these workers declared
adherence to the trade union nonpar
tisan program and that Mr. Ryan did
not speak for that union.
The central labor union called at
tention to the action of A. F. of L.
conventions, which authorized Presi
dent Gompers and the executive coun
cil to proceed along non-partisan lines
and publish candidates' records, and
when critics or those who would cap
italize former trade union activities
now declare that "Gompers can't deliv
er the labor vote," these statements,
the central labor union resolutions
say, "are not deserving the considera
tion of any fair-minded trade union
ist."
The central labor union also declar
ed that "we indorse and pledge our
selves to render every assistance pos
sible that the program of the A. F. of
L. may be carried to a successful con
clusion."
