NEW YORK, April 24.-1n a letter
to the New York World on socialism,
printed today, Henry Clews, the IA

Socialism in America is an in
definite term. and it's meaning various,
according to the industry, wealth and

should say that true socialism means
a state of affairs tending to improve

by the will of the rich, nor by the die
tates of the very poor and disconcert-

be through the influence of what are

UNIONS IN POLITICS,
American Federation Opens Gamma
for Labor Voice in Lawmakiuo.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April a.
In accordance with its declared in4en-
ton of entering actively into politics,
the American Federation of Labor has
sent the following circular letter to all
unions in the United States, giving d.
rections as to the policy to be pur-
sued.
. The attitude of the federation as ex-
pressed in the circular letter to the
various unions is:
1--WE will stand by our friends and
administer stinging rebuke to men or
parties who are either Indifferent. neg
ligent or hostile, and whenever oppor-
tunity affords secure the election of in
telligent, honest, earnest trades union
lists, with clear, unblemished, paid-up
union cards in their possession"
All union men are told to unite re-
gardless of party to secure control
of the house of representatives and of
the United States senate. 1t is intend
ed that the unions shall cooperate
with all referendum leagues and or
ganized farmers to question candidates
regarding the establishment of ma
tional system whereby the voters can
instruct by direct vote.
To Get Active at Once.
In the coming congressional cam
paign, all candidates are to be Ques-
toned by the labor unions as to the
position they will take in the event of
election. Men who have consistently
opposed the labor organizations in the
past are to be displaced by men who
have pledged themselves to the support
of all projects demanded by the organ1-
zation.

HuRRAH FOR ThG oAlDl
lnmates Of Prisons and lnsaAo Asyivans
Are Men With Nalss

LONDON. April 2l.-Simultaneously
from two Independent sources come
striking testimonials to the virtues of
the hairless head. It Is stated that
first. there are no bald criminals, and
second, there are no bald lunatics.
Neither statement is laid down a.
absolute or infallible. but it Is asserted
that there are only just sufficient ex-
ceptions to prove the rule.
The authority regarding the first
statement is ]. ]. Riley, magistrate
on the Halifax bench, who said in
court that he had met with only two
bald charges" in his twenty-th three
years experience.
With regard to the second statement
the Rev. S. M. Nield, of Bradford,
quotes the head official of the Trains
hill asylum, who assured him that he
never would need the hospitality Of
that institution, as he was quite bald.
1t was difficult to find authorities in
London who whole -heartedly bore out
these two theses. A man who frequent
ly visits Bethlehem hospital for the in
sane in an official capacity. said to
Of the Daily Mail:
my impression of the lunatics
meet here is that they are usually a
shaggy race"
An experienced police inspector bore
out to a great extent Mr.. Riiey's state-
ment about the lack Of bald headed
but he advanced a cecnmon-
place explanation.
Criminals" he said, 'are a noto-
riously short-lived race. admit
