TO DISTRICT SURVEYOR

The Commissioners have approved

ditional equipment in his ONCE. The
recommendation is incorporated in 4
special report on the working of part
Of the building regulations which re-
Quires certification OF location of walls
of new buildings by the surveyors Of
fee. This duty imposes extra heavy
work in that office and interferes with
the regular field work when there is no

MIR. LOCKER recommends that the Of
flce be supplied with a special rapid
moving field party, TO take the bulk Of
the wall surveys. 1t shall consist Of
two men. a transitman and driver, who
shall be a back-chainman. These, he
says, could be carried in a light but
strong buggy, with space for a small
surveying outfit. He says with this as
sistance he can meet all the demands
made at present for wall surveys.

FEW MEN PASS TESTS
FOR POLICE APPOINTMENT
Only Four Out of Thirty-two Found
Physically Qualified.

The difficulty Of the police depart
ment in obtaining eligible men for po-
sitions on the force was further demon
strated yesterday. when the papers of
the thirty-two applicants who under
went the physical test Monday afternoon
were examined. and showed that only
four had passed. At the same time, Maj
or Sylvester received word that only six
of the forty-two who appeared at re-
cent civil service examination had been
successful.
In view of this condition, Major Syl-
vester fears that he will experience no
end of trouble in obtaining sufficient men
for the precinct at Anacostia. This is
a contingency not expected. and the pur-
posed precinct may still prove source
of worry, in spite Of the decision OF the
Corporation Counsel that the District
Commissioners had power to establish
the additional precinct.

Labor Union Methods.

Many persons larbor the idea that
Unions favor strikes as a method OF Sc
curing their demands. Nothing could be
farther from the truth than this.
Again, many think the Unions the
cause of most strikes This is also UNI
true. The strike, so far as the Union is
concerned, is d last resort, sort of war
measure. No one knows better than
the American workman the injury
caused by the strike and the Unions
are the best agency to prevent them.
Perhaps one of the most hopeful re-
suits of the labor unions is the en-
ployer's unions. The organization of
labor has forced the orGaniza ton of
employers. over against each union or
federation of unions is an employers
union. The Longshoremen are met by
various associations of Dock Managers.
Lake Carriers, Lumber Carriers, and
Others, the Mine Workers by the Mine
Operators: the metal trades councils
by the metal trades associations. the
molders by the founders; the printing
trades by the Newspaper Publishers
Association. The ups and downs of
these associations of employers is a
chapter in this industrial revolution
fully as cogent for the future as the
UPS and downs of the unions. In some
localities, the employers have
smashed" the unions: in others. the
unions have smashed the employers;
while in others a new form of indus
trial government. with representation
