UNDERSTANDING
LEADS TO PEACE
By ARTHUR H. PHILLIPS
Misunderstanding is responsible for
most opposition to the union labor
i iuse.
A goodly number of people have
lie wrong impression with regard
to motives behind such support and
unyielding effort for organized labor.
They seem inclined to think that
tiiese motives are wholly actuated by
lie desire for money or power.
The real agitators, however, the
most active workers for unionism, are
People endowed with a fair degree
f!
intelligence an intelligence which
if directed toward commercial chan
nels or in support of labor opposi
tion would pay them, so far as money
i concerned, many times what they
rive from theii present work.
Personal gain and selfishness are
1 he last thoughts of the true labor
unionist. His high regard for the
welfare of his fellowman his spirit
of
philanthropy and altruism over
shadow all pecuniary considerations.
The genuine happiness and per
sonal satisfaction that comes from
accomplishment in this work are his
i cwards.
A recognition of this fact should
lead to two conclusions. It should
convince the hostile element as to the
honesty and sincerity behind such
iTort. It should arouse in the work
ers a greater appreciation of the un
tiring struggle and self-sacrifice made
I y these people in their behalf.

(CouvrlKht.)
K OTHER," said Eve Leslie a
*•*1 little Impatiently, as she
swung to and fro in the couch ham
uiock on the broad piazza at the
Leslie house, "I am afraid that I am
u failure!"
Mrs. Leslie lifted her eyes from
her sewing and smiled at her charm
ing daughter, her brows lifted In
mock wonder. "A failure? A girl
who lias been a leader in her classes
ever since she went to school—who
carried off honors at high school
graduation, and brought home hon
ors from college—my dear little girl,
you are not a failure in that way 1
And as a daughter—you have always
been most loving, willing, helpful."
Eve blushed and looked ashamed,
**It is lovely of you to say all that,
mother, dear, because I know you
really believe it," said the girl
quickly, "hut In spite of all that,
don't you really think that to be truly
successful, a girl should attract the
love of some nice man?"
"Yes, indeed," said Mrs. Leslie,
cheerily. "I thought you had, Evie.
How about Jim Field?"
"Oh—Jim!" exclaimed Eve rather
vaguely. "Somehow, he didn't mean
anything to me, mother. Why, he
didu't even have a car!"
"I know you are fond of a car,"
admitted Mrs. Leslie, "but-1 always
understood that when a girl loved
a man—his possessions did not count
So very much."
"I never cared for Jim, anyway—
he was a very nice boy, but he could
not dance and I did tire of him—so
when he became angry because I
would not have him here at the house
once or twice a week, it was a great
relief to me. And then, of course, Phil
Briggs came along with his snappy
roadster, and we had such fun going
about, but"—
"But what?"
"Nothing, mother, not much, only
he became such a bore after awhile!
Instead of driving over to the hotel
for a beach dance or a moonlight
swim or something, he took It into
his head that he must come to see
me every week at the house here—
not go anywhere at ah!"
"I see," murmured Mrs. Leslie?
"And I suppose It

So Eve followed her mother's ad
vice and bought a car in which Eve
It was about this time that Peter
Allen came to ltosedale to work In
his uncle's bank. He lived at Judge
Allen's house, for the Judge was his
grandfather. Peter was a tine young
man—college bred, as all the Aliens
of Rosedale had been, he was very
clever, and a splendid business man.
People said that the Allen bank would
eventually come to young Peter. He
was a tall, good looking fellow of live
and twenty, with charming manners.
The second time that he met Eve
Leslie he asked permission to call.
"Your house Is such a homey place,"
he confessed, "I am hoping that you
will let me come and see you."
"Of course," Eve found herself say
ing. "You will like my mother and
father—really, I can vouch for both
of them!"
"l'eter Allen?" asked Mrs. Leslie.
"Why he must be Polly Allen's son.
We were great friends, as girls."
"What shall I do with him?" begged
Eve forlornly. "You know I hate to
entertain them."
Mrs. Leslie smiled. "Most glrVs
are born with the instinctive knowl
edge of how to treat a young man
when he conies to see them. be
lieve I was born with a sort of in
tuition, what do you think, Ned?"
Mr. Leslie grinned, and lighted his1
pipe. "Well. I never remember hav
ing a better time than when I came
to t4ie Tyrells house, and I thought
Evelyn, your mother here, Eve, was
the sweetest, prettiest girl I ever
saw! I'm mighty glad that I didn't
do my courting In these days, and
have to put my girl into the seat of
a swift car and then go galloping all
over the county looking for some
thing to do! There was always some
thing to do at the Tyrells, eh, Evelyn?"
Sa that night when Peter Allen
paid his first visit to the Leslie's
old-fashioned place, he found the
great living-room bathed In soft light
from shaded lamps, and with a bright
fire on the hospitable hearth. They
played cards, they talked and told
stories, and the time passed like mag
1c. Then, Mr. Leslie, coming home
from his lodge, brought a box of Ice
cream, and Mrs. Leslie had "hap
pened" to make a delicious layer cake
that day, and after they had eaten,
Eve played the piano, and they sang
together.
"I hope you will Invite me again,"
•aid Peter, "I'd like to bring my violin
over
"Oh, you must come," cried Eve
swiftly, happier than she had ever
been before. So, In the old, old way
of a man wooing a maid, Eve Leslie
was wooed and won by Peter Allen,
but the amusing item to Mrs. Leslie
was the fact that l'eter Allen did
not own an automobile, until his
grandfather gave hiui one for a wed
ding gift!

THE BUTLER COUNTY PRESS
DRY LAW REPEAL
FAVORED
Boston.—This state held an indirect
prohibition referendum at the recent
election and the wets won by a vote
of 619,8182 to 347,910, with returns
from several districts missing. The
question went before the voters in
the form of a "question of public pol
icy." The question was:
'Shall the senator from this dis
trict be instructed to vote for a reso
lution requesting congnpss to take
action for the repeal of the eighteenth
amendment,to the constitution of the
United States, known as the prohi
bition amendment?"
Repeal was favored in 32 of the 40
state senate districts.
BEN I. DAVIS
Rounds Out Record Term
As Trade Union Editor
New Orleans, La. (I. L. N. S.)—
Ben I. Davis, here to attend the con
ventions of the American Federation
of Labor and the International Labor
Press of America, has hung up a
new record in labor journalism.
Davis will have served thirty con
tinuous years as editor of the Journal
of the Amalgamated Association of
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers with the
coming of next July, and he has just
been elected by referendum for
another two-year term. Davis' whole
tenure as editor has been by election.
So far as can be learned here there
is no editor of an official journal who
can point to so long a record, either
in an elective editorship or in ap
pointive editorship.
"Don't write anything about it,"
said Davis. "Please don't exploit my
service."
The journal edited by JDavis is one
of the notable-examples of effective
labor journalism.
THISYEAR
Likely to Break Records For
Export Trade
By RALPH F. COUCH
Washington, D. C. (I. L. N. S.)—
Approximately $555,000,000 worth of
American goods were shipped to for
eign countries in October, the highest
export trade for that month in more
than six years, the United States
commerce department announced.
Imports totaled $357,000,000 during
October.
Merchandise shipments during t^he
first ten months of this year thus are
shown to amount to $4,115,000,000
against imports of $3,427,000,000.
This leaves a trade balance of $G88,
000,000, which is said to b^ "in favor
of" the United States. The totals
indicate that if export shipments con
tinue through November and Decem
ber as in the preceding ten months,
this year will break all foreign trade
records since the period of the World
War.
The United States now is selling
more goods abroad than any other
country, the official records reveal.
GEORGE W. PERKINS
Named Head of Union La
bel Department
New Orleans, La. (I. L. N. S.)
George W. Perkins, for years presi
dent of the Cigar Makers' Interna
tional Union and later western rep
resentative of the Union Labor Life
Insurance Company, was elected
president of the union label trades de
partment, in convention here, suc
ceeding John W. Hays. Andrew My
rup was added to the executive coun
cil as fifth vice- president. Other of
ficers were re-elected, as were the
officers in the building trades deprat
ment and metal trades department.
In the building trades department
the salaries of President William J.
McSorley and Secretary-Treasurer
William J. Spencer were increased
$1,500 per year.
The metal trades department in
creased its assessment 50 per cent to
extend the organizing work of the
department in a convention alive with
fightiVig. spirit.
All of the departments were de
cidedly optimistic in spirit, recording
a good trade union year and fore
casting an even better one in 1929.
TRUST CIGAR STORES
WILL CUT LABOR COST
New York.—Low-wage clerks em
ployed by the United Cigar Stores
Company, and who "don't believe in
unions," are to be replaced by auto
matic machinery.
The machines will sell small mer
chandise, including cigars and cigar
ettes, in the company's 3,200 stores
throughout the country.

SWEDISH
Employers to Confer With
Trade Unionists
New York.—The recently-formed
conservative government in Sweden
has called an "industrial parliament,"
which will consist of representatives
of organized employers and the
trade, union movement, according to
cables from Stockholm to the Her
ald-Tribune of this city.
The purpose of the "parliament" is
to reach a common ground so as to
avoid future strikes, lockouts and
boycotts. The originator of the plan
is Minister of Social Welfare Lue
back, who has served as conciliator
in recent labor troubles.
The proposal follows the failure of
compulsory arbitration, which the
unions resisted, and costly strikes in
several industries the past few years.
The last Swedish parliament pass
ed a law setting up a labor court by
which operating agreements are to
be interpreted. This court can not
prohibit strikes and the new govern
ment will try to institute conciliation
rather than compulsion.
The government and large employ
ers seem to agree that the workers
will accept no substitute for their
unions, and that every attempt to
destroy or weaken the labor organiza
tions will fail.
PICKPOCKETS'
Rights Guarded But Not
Labor's, Says Olander
Chicago.—"When pickpocket is
arrested every legal guarantee ic
thrown around him, but these are de
nied when a striker attempts to raise
living standards," said Victor Olan
der, secretary-treasurer of the Illinois
Federation of Labor.
"No lawyer ever advocated an in
junction against pocket-picking, and
he should not," said Mr. Olander.
"These lawyers will argue with a
great deal of enthusiasm, and they
will argue truthfully. They are right.
But, oh, the tragedy of it when work
ing people go on trike. They are
frequently made victims of the un
fair injunction process and are denied
legal safeguards universally regarded
as essential in the case of even the
meanest criminal.
"In most cases the strikers do not
even know that the injunction has
been applied for until the writ itself,
in full force, is flaunted in their faces
by the employer or his private police.
There has been no trial, no testi
mony, no witnesses—nothing but an
affidavit filed by the complaining em
ployer without notice to the strikers
"Later they are cited to 'show
cause' why they should not be pun
ished for some violation of the injunc
tion, and thus assumed to be guilty
until they prove themselves inno
cent they are denied the right of a
trial by jury they have not the same
opportunity to confront the witnesses
against them that the criminal has.
Trade union activities benefit society.
Practically every law court that has
dealt with these organizations of
working people in modern times has
said so. Yet the whole weight of
legalism stands against them when
they enter the equity court. Equity?
What a mockery it is!"
CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING
Washington.—Co-operative market
ing of farm products is the major
remedy for the relief of the farmers
stressed by President Coolidge in an
address before the convention of the
National Grange in this city.
