Atlantic City, N. j., Sept. 1O,-The In
ternational Association of Chief Fire
Engineers at to-day's session recalled
the paper submitted by Chief A. j.
Harris of Tampa, Fla, entitled,
Should firemen become members of
labor unions?" which the board of di-
rectors shelved on account of the Sc
we're attack on unions and il was spread
upon the minutes, thereby gaining the
approval of the convention.
Chief Harris said: The moment the
fireman becomes a labor unionist, he
ceases to be a true and trusted fire.
man. Consider the firemen bound by
the strict rules of organized labor, The
result is horrible to contemplate. Our
hazardous experience in Tampa taught
all those who watched the conflict with
unpre judiced eyes that the limit of la
Dor unionism had been reached when
it seeks to enter the fire service. There.
are many reasons why firemen should
not be unionized. Politics in a fire
department is bad enough, but labor
unionism is Infinitely worse"

sions as to permit free. passage of
ships $50 feet long and drawing
II feet Of water. 1t is estimated
that this canal, with accompanying
work on the channel immediately
below the big eddy, will cost
81, 125, 900.

rotary stipulated that the work
shall not commence until the entire
right Of way necessary for the canal
is turned over to the government
free OF charge, and assurance lie
given that the government shall
not be held liable for damages in
Cured to private property. No
further confessional action is neces-
sary before the work shall COM
mence. This project when compile
ted will afford an all-water route
from the Inland Empire to the sea.
The only DIRECTORS to the right
of way are the 0. X. & N. railroad.
