The navy wants proportionate sIft-
ing ont, for Secretary Never finds that
our average rear-admiral is over seven
and half years older than the average
British, is seven aud two-thirds years
older than the average German and
nearly eight and q half years older than
The average japanese flag officer of
equal rank Indeed, this disparity in
the ages Of our naval officers and those
of foreign governments was noticed dur
ing the recent circumnavigation of the
globe by our fleet, and especially was
this seen in Yokohama, where there
were three vice admirals aged, respec-
lively, ffty-siy, fifty-four and fifty,
whereas the average age of our rear
admirals on the cruise was about sixty,
or fourteen years older than the Jap
anese rear admiral present
To learn the average age at which the
world s greatest military leaders have
been at their best / searched through
the war department library the other
day and came upon General King S
- Famous and Decisive Battles. - AS
only military man could he analvzes
the world s most notable and important
conflicts, from Narat hon down through
ancient, medieval and modern times
After cataioguing the commanders at
these battles | have, at considerable
labor, ascertained as far AS possible
their ages AT the time of these con
tiicts, and from these data | have made
some computations as to the relative
ages of the conquerors and the con
quered.
The younger commander has defeated
the older commander in over four-fift his
of the great battles of the world. This
deduction is based upon statistics of
twenty-nine of the battles on General
King ist-all Of those where the
dates Of the principal participants could
be obtained.
The average conqueror defeated a
man twelve years older than himself
The average conqueror has been forty
three years old while the average com
mander on the unsuccessful side has
been fifty five. In other words, the
average field commander would seem tc
be at his best at forty three.

UNION LABEL DISCUSSED.
Praises Its sacredness and Shows II
Represents All That Is Noble
in Labor.

The Rev. Walter vrooman, of Balti-
more, Md, delivered one Of the most
striking addresses ever made on behalf
of the union label. The reverend gentle
man said:
What can be more sacred, more holy.
or more deserving of the reverence of
which signifies that human life has been
more highly valued in the production of
commodity than the mere profits sought
for by greed. The label is an emblem
of Justice, of fraternity, of humanity.
When you find the label on box of cigars
or a loaf of bread, you can be sure that
neither was made in sweat shop. That
no children's fingers were compelled to
sew or assort tobacco in the hours of the
night intended for healthful childish
sleep. When you see this label on any
commodity you can buy it with clear
conscience, knowing that in doing SO you
are not becoming partner to any insti-
tuition that degrades humanity for pri-
vate profit. You can sleep sound also,
and not be worried with typhus fever,
small pox and leprosy, which are often
scattered broadcast from Chinese opium
joints, penetential convict cells and tene-
ment sweatshops, where frequently the
most degraded specimens of humanity put
their life's blood into marketable goods
that the poor. unsuspecting public suffers
all manner of foul and loathsome disease.
1.-THE union label is a religious en-
blem. 1t is a religious act to buy goods
to which this label is attached. an act
blessed on earth and honored in heaven;
while it is sin to buy cigars, piece of
clothing, a pair of shoes or a loaf OF
bread without this label, for then you do
not know but what you are building up
the business of some heartless tyrant who
is extracting fortune from the drudgery
and degradation of his soul at the risk
of public health. God bless the label.
And hope that all of you who leave this
house tonight will carry indelibly i'm
pressed upon your minds the picture of
the union label, surrounded by angels,
and that you will always know that the
favorite banner in heaven is that banner
which represents justice to labor. fresh
air and sunshine and healthful condition
for those who toll and the truth that hui
man life is of greater moment than the
gain of gold!"

WHY LABOR SHOULD
HAVE OWN PARTY.
CONTINUED from Page -

Prohibition of gambling in stocks and
necessaries of life.
All municipal, state and federal work
to be done direct instead Of by contract.
Abolition of the fee system in public
Offices.
Initiative, referendum and recall.
Reform OF the method of selecting
members OF the grand jury.
The two hours OF stirring debate,
which preceded this momentous action
of the Chicago Federation Of Labor
served to make plain that an overwhelm-
ing majority was In favor of political
action independent of the old parties, but
as to the proposed alliance with the So
cialist party there was much divergence
of opinion.
TOO long have we wasted our lives
voting for good fellows" proclaimed
Delegate George Macy Of the Stereotyp
ers union. I'VE find the friends we
voted for are all tools of the corpora
tions and special interests
I'VE should be cautious about taking
independent action" said John ]. Brit
tain, treasurer of the Federation. 1T is
not in line with the policy Of the Ameri-
can Federation OF Labor OF rewarding
our friends and Furnishing our enemies
II am not surprised that Britain is
cautious, now that he is a general con.
tractor and employer" replied Delegate
Rodriguez of the Painters union. Il
favor independent political action, but
not until the membership has spoken. It
would be disgrace to indorse either the
Republicans or Democrats"
In support of the new Labor party OF
Arizona, which is making fight for
working class legislation in the new
state constitution, the Federation
adopted a resolution asking the afnliated
unions to contribute financial aid.
