Strike in San Francisco Did Not Yield

made to settle the strike by arbitration
are ~unavailing. The arrival of Farley's

VICE PRESIDENT IS
SPEEDING WESTWARD

vocate such a leap toward state social
ism as would be involved in the ma

trial by jury to wage earners? All this
is sheer Samuel Gomperism.

In due course of time that boy grew up to mans estate and be came himself the father of little boy. When his son was six years old be remembered how his own father had ordered swing to be made for him. So he called on the tradesman, who lived at his gate and asked him to send up the swing that had been order ed twenty years before. The man agreed to do so. The little boy be coming impatient after three weeks, his father called again and remon- strated with the Arabian as to his dil. atoriness.

 "Yes, sir" said the drayman respect fully. My brain told me that, and l didn't use it.
