The Chicago Inter-Ocean outlines the
steel strike situation and the causes
leading up to it as follows.
The main issue between the United
States Steel corporation and its en-
plOyes is whether that concern will or
will not recognize and permit labor or
CARNATIONS in all its mills. The Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers demands such recognition
and that the employees OF certain non
union mills shall be released from
contracts now binding them to belong
TO no labor organizations and be allow
ed to join the association without be-
ing discharged"
This the steel corporation has refused
TO grant preferring to so on with its
mills as they now are, part union and
part non-union- To the Amalgamated
associations leaders this attitude
seems proof OF a policy Of hostility to
labor organizations, and that the steel

few years since this was an undisputed
fact. 1t was hoped she had outgrown
that condition. and perhaps it was un-
lair for the secretary to so class her
this season, in view of her splendid
record during the past several years.
In this connection John j. ingalls, once
said, with reference to this, that it
didn't make much difference. for when
the season was propitiOus. the state
could raise enough in one year to feed
the world four years. and the farmers
could amuse themselves by talking pol
tiles the other three years.

The London Lancet explains that new
bread is not indigestible although the
average consumer sometimes finds 1t
difficult of digestion. This paradox is
cleared up thus; The stale bread. be-
ing hard, is more thoroughly chewed. It
IS saturated with saliva before it is
swallowed and the ptyalin of the saliva
has a chance to perform its office of
preliminary or preparatory digestion.
The new bread, on the contrary. is soft
and seems to need little chewing. 1t
goes into the stomach without the mas
tication and saturauon received by
stale bread, and therefore the task inn
posed upon the gastric fluids is too
great" Isn't the real source of trouble
in new bread the fermentation in the
stomach caused by the fresh yeast?
