DISCIPLINE BY UNIONS,

To the EDITOR of The Tribune
Sir: noted with interest your recent
editorial on THE Attitude Of Cnionisn'
and T would respectfully call your atteh-
ton 10 the fact that YOU do not mention
the method the union usually uses ana
finds most efficacious in dealing WIN
member whose conduct is in opposition
TO it's own ways-namely, fine, when
practically forever prevents the member
from getting any advantage from sick or
death benefits: suspension, which Keeps
him out Of work, and final expulsion
which is apt to drive him from his trade
and which practically ostracises nun
among his friends, workmen and their
families. The wri has watched TINS
situation for a number of years and mas
never heard that a union disciplined or
expelled one of it's members for illegal
violence. even when such member had been
absolutely convicted Of such acts.

THE VALUE OF FLOGGiNG.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir Having always been intensely inter-
ested in boys. | beg to be allowed TO ex-
press utter disapproval of corporal pun
ishment I'm schools. For one thing. there
is needed a rarely self-controled man or
woman 10 administer IT, 1t is likely TO be
the safety valve of nerves and temper.
What growing up boys need is a consci-
entious, pleasant. manly, well trained and
we'll paid male teacher. one who thinks
more of influence than of direct control.
It is TO be hoped that Jogging school
children and fogging criminals will not
even be discussed in the same breath. The
most rebellious schooboy has youth and
self-respect and an undecided future 10

lower or harden or shame the criminals
whose crimes daily appal us? The scourge.

TAKE CHILDREN OFF STREET
Need of Recreation Pier on East River
Emphasized by Fatal Accidents.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: note In to-day's issue Of your paper
that two persons lost their lives in East

lives Of both could have been saved il we

In 1906 four thousand residents Of that
congested district petitioned the cities Com

To act favorably on a bill which intro
dLced and which passed both houses. but
MAYOR Mcclellan vetoed 1t for the reason
that the Dock Commissioner had the power
to erect a pier at any point on the river
front where he thought II was needed Early
in 1907 petition. with several hundred
signatures attached thereto, was presented
10 the Dock Commissioner by a committee
of business men, doctors and labor mon. I
suggested at that hearing that the pier
is lying idle between 49th and 50th streets
on the East River. and that il should be
built parallel with the river instead of pro-
jecting into the river. and foot bridge

TWO POINTS or VIEW.

Ii is instructive 10 contrast the points
of view from which It's advocates and
opponents regard tie policy of reel
procity with Canada. one point Of view
Is national: the ether is local and paro-
chial In recent speech in the House
of Representatives Mr.. Kinds. Of Maine,
stated the argument against reciprocity
I'm its narrowcSt and most localized form.
He said that the farmers of the United
States were now more in need of pro
lection than any other class OF producers,
because after suffering for many decades
from an uvcrSupply Of cheap lands in
the West they were just beginning 10
reap the advantages of an extinction of
that OverSupply. rs witness the nOtab,

products i'm the last decade and the
increase i'm the value of farm lands
and buildings between 1900 and 1910.
which has ranged from 81 per cent j.
New England 10 100 and 200 per cent in
the great agricultural states of the West
Mr. Hind, thinks that the equilibrium
now being established would he diSaS-
trouSly upset by admitting to the Ameri-
can market the surplus farm products
of Canada.
Without accepting Mr.. Iiind>'s csti-
mate Of the economic consequences Of
the proposed arrangement with Canada,
we may fairly say that the gist of this
argument is that The prices of food
products i'm this country should hc kept
n high rs they are and even forced
higher. as our population increases. 10y
the exclusion of all foreign food prod

the thirteen colonies ever permitted
the Northwest Territory to be carved
into states and lis land opened 10

the acquisition of Louisiana Territory, of
Florida and of Texas rs an economic
misfortune. He must deplorc the eX-
