UNION MEN URGED
TO FIGHT OPEN SHOP
President Gompers Scores Lo-
cal Labor Organizations for
Failure to Cooperate.

1T is disgrace that the laboring men
of Washington should not fight harder
o prevent the open shop declared Presi-
dent Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor at a mass meeting of the friends
of union labor at Typographical Temple
Wednesday night 1t was a meeting held
to arouse more enthusiasm for the cause
of uniOnism in the District.
President Gompers declared further that
the members of the labor unions them
selves We're very much to blame for the
existence of the open shop. He asserted
that the local unions needed the common
sense of wild horses" which travel over
the country in packs and always battle
with their heels to the foe.
The union men of Washington disre-
garded this safeguard to liberty and their
rights by fighting with their heels toward
each other and always struggled individ-

STREET PLAYGROUND
PLAN CALLED ILLEGAL
Mr.. Thomas Says Commits
sioners Have No Right to
Rope Off Thoroughfares.

Making Fairgrounds out of part of the
streets in front of or alongside school
houses, as. has been suggested to the
Commissioners. was today declared by
Corporation Counsel Thomas to be entire
~ out of the question. He says he Is of
the opinion that the Commissioners have
absolutely no right to rope off a street
for any purpose; that Congress has given
them no right to do such thing. He
quotes from a Court of Appeals decision
which says that if the Commissioners
could narrow the width Of street in one
locality, then all the streets of the city
could be chopped up at will. anywhere
and at any time.
1t had been suggested to the Commits
siOners that school children be given
some of the streets to play in, and that
spaces be marked off for the use of the
Ch,ldren exclusively during certain hours.
The matter was placed before Corporation
Counsel Thomas by Commissioner Judson.

Time and Energy Wasted.

James OCOnnell. vice president Of the
American Federation of Labor, also
spoke along the same lines. He criticised
the lack of cooperation among the labor
unions of the District. He declared that
for ten years individual unions had
struck and been defeated simply because
of lack of support on the part Of other
building trades associations. Money time
and energy had been thrown away in this
city, he said. because of the utter indif-
ference of laboring men to do their duty
members of the unions
THE organizations he concluded ''are
practicing nOn-uniOn methods on each
other. and one local. if getting fair play
would do nothing TO help another which
might be fighting for it's very existence
The practice of striking is entirely too
prevalent in the District
President Goinpers took occasion to de-
clare that 1t Is shame that the men OF
the District do not have the right Of suf-
frage.
There is no valid reason he said
WHY the labOring man of Washington
should not have the same right of ballot

Quotes From Legal Opinion.

Mr.. Thomas, quoting from the opinion
in the Court of Appeals case, says:
If the power to narrow the width OF
a roadway at all in a single street can
be implied from the general grant of
power to control and repair, then it may
be exercised to any extent, in the discre-
ton OF the Commissioners, short of clos
ing it completely. And If a single street,
or part thereof. can be so narrowed, then
all the streets and avenues of the city
may be subjected to the same process
at discretion.
The power commended for is great and
far-reaching in its consequences; it's ex-
ercise IS of the greatest Importance, not
only to all owners Of abutting property
but to the general public also, and we
cannot believe that Congress contem-
plated its extension through the general
grant Of the power to control and re-
pair

PLEA FOR PUBLIC VEAL.
SOCIAL AND BUSINESS
Rev. DR.. J. w. FrizzeII Lectures
Before Mems Hebrew
Temple Club.

Functions of the Institutional Church
was the subject of an address by Rev.
Dr.. J. W. Frizzell of the Ingram Memoir
ial Church last night before the Mems
Temple Club of the Washington Hebrew
Congregation in the synagogue lecture
rooms. Sfh street. DIR. Frizzells address
is the first OF series on the subject ar
ranged for the winter months by DR..
Abram Simon, pastor of the Eighth
Street Temple.
The sphere of the church-that is the
men who follow the religion of Coolies
everywhere and anywhere that the teach
ings of God are needed" said DIR. Fritz
zell. The functions of the church are
the application of religious principles for
the benefit OF mankind. Among these
functions are the teaching OF true reli-
sious conceptions in the questions of life
the reshaping of religious thought to the
advancing needs of mankind and the
welding into complete harmony toward a
successful attainment of the definite OBJ
Jects of religion. In other words, re-
ligfon means the moral and physical up
lift of humanity, irrespective of denomi-
national shibboleths.'
Contribution to Public Veal.
DIR. Frizzen spoke of the need OF a
larger contribution on the part of the
institutional church to- the welfare of the
people, social as well as business; the
need of a greater religious contribution
to intellectual development and religious
provision for a greater mental activity
toward every phase of LIES problems
The speaker paid a high tribute to Or
ganized labor as the medium of bringing
men together for their mutual aid and
benefit.
If for nothing else but this organized
labor has justified its existence. But in
the bringing of great masses of men to-
gether as / have described they seem to
lose sight OF the religious side of their
work" said DIR. FrizZell in conclusion.
Other speakers of the evening were DIR.
Simon and DR. William ROsenau of Bal
timOre.

NORMAL SCHOOLS SITE
OPPOSITION TO LOCATION NEAR
HOWARD UNIVERSITY.
Recommendation of School Boards
Committee Is Now Before
Commissioners.

II the Commissioners follow the recon-
mendation OF the board of education. the
new Normal School No. = will be built
on the Balloch property between 9th and
7th streets. opposite the Howard Uni
versity. This tract was chosen by
the committee on sites. Of which
William d. Hoover is chairman. 1t is
now up to the Commissioners to decide,
following the recommendation Of Mai.
Judson. the Engineer Commissioner. IL
is more than probable that Commissioner
Rudolph will take no active part in the
matter. as he is a trustee of Howard
University. and there is an active senti-
ment on the part of at least one member
of the board of education and several
prominent colored residents against
placing the new school near Howard Uni
wersity.
The protest against this site is led by
DR.. ]. H. Howard He says of the site:
Site Is Above Grade.
1T is very much above the grade of
7th street extended, or Georgia avenue.
as 1t is now known. This condition would
seem to increase the cost of building
very greatly on account OF the necessity
for deepening the basement or arranging
the building 50 as to provide for easy
access on the west side. On the east
side the access would be very inconven-
lent. making IL necessary to climb long,
steep hill and to go around the block
from the cars on Georgia avenue in
order to enter the building.
ut is recognized that Ii is desirable
that teachers in the course OF training
should have practice in claSsrooms where
they have pupils to teach. And 1t II
understood that there will be such grades
Of pupils in connection with the Normal
School But we feel and insist that the
should not be made a convenience for
the practice of the unframed students of
Howard University.
1t is sufficient that the pupils Of the
public schools suffer only such disad-
vantage as is necessary to the train
ing Of prospective teachers Of the Dis
trict's own schools.
To Disadvantage of Schools.
There is a strong, a growing reali-
xation of the fact that Howard Uni
versity is grating herself upon the
public schools in number of ways
that ought not to be allowed. because
it will surely result in disadvantage
to the public schools. 1t seems that II
may be necessary to invite the atten-
ton Of Congress to the facts in this
connection"
DR.. Howard makes a long argument
that it is unwise to establish normal
school near the dormitory Of men stu
dents Howard University is a co-edu-
cational institution. The complainants
against the proposed site say that the
young women of Howard are chape-
rond when they go out, but that nor
NAL school students would not be
Against this complaint a member of the
board Of trustees OF the university said
today that not in ten years had any
complaint arisen over the proximity OF

BIG YEAR FOR IRON ORE.
Over Forty-Two Million Tons Ship.
ped From Superior in 1909.

More iron ore was shipped from the
Lake Superior region in 1909 than ever
before in any single year. The guam
tity. according to a report issued by
the United States geological survey. was
42.504.110 long tons. Most Of this ore
was consumed in eastern Ohio and
western Pennsylvania.
Nearly 3S.0OO,0QG tons of iron ore
passed through the Sault Ste Marie
canal, and through Lakes Michigan and
Huron in 1903. The Lake Superior ore
represented about 80 per cent of the
total iron ore production Of the United
States
