custom is one that has been greatly
abused. Some of the more fortunate
girls at former graduating exercises
have carried great punches OF Amer1-

families or friends could not anord
such luxuries went without flowers.
superintendent Riddell has wisely de-
cided to omit the flower feature and
Mace all on an equal footing. He
says:
.Girls of rich parents can AFFORD to
carry bouduets of long-stemmed and
AaminR.red roses, but those from the

Jaughters. But we cannot allow that.

Eckhoff, Star Witness
In McNamara Trailing,
Spent Day With Family

CINCINNATI, o., Dec. 3-It de-
veloped today that Frank Eckhoff the
star" witness in the McNamara-Los
Angeles Times case. who was found
here several weeks ago through the
work Of Lew Bell and Joe Schaefer,
city detectives. and two representatives
here Of the Burns Detective Agency,
who mysteriously vanished. was in Gin
cinnati last night.
Eckhoff arrived here with two Burns
detectives, ate dinner with his wife and
his brother and sister, played with his
baby and spent some time at the home
Of his brother and sister. 4o69 Runny-
mede avenue. Where he came from the
police would not divulge. He disap-
peared again and to what place he
went the police do not know. Eckoff
would not tell then where he was 60
ing, 1t is said. It leaked out today
that he spent all Of Friday night in the
grand hotel and none of the attaches
knew the right name Of the guest.
It is stated today upon police author
ity that the evidence gathered here by
Cincinnati city detectives not only
caused the McNamaras to confess but
will cause the home city Of the
McNamaras to be the future center Of
the Federal probe in the case.

Governor West OF Oregon.
Had the McNamaras not confessed
and the trial gone on, no matter what
the outcome. 1t would have greatly
widened the breach between capital
and labor. for organised labor be-
lieved firmly In the innocence Of these
men as certain organisations Of capi-
tai believed In their guilt, and would
have looked on their prosecution sim
ply as persecution.
while there may be members Of
labor organizations who approve Of
such outrageous acts as the McNam-
aras committed, I know that organ
lied labor as q body condemns such
acts. Since these men were guilty, It
was well for all concerned that they
confessed their guilt. It will in the
end rebound to the benefit Of organ
lied labor. for 1t will lead to the elm
ination OF such men from its ranks
The labor union has done and can
do much good for the laboring Glasses.
In order to do this. however, It must
retain the confidence Of society, and
20 have this 1t must keep It's hands
clean. This can only be done by get
ting rid Of all the McNamaras within
it's ranks"
Governor Norris Of Nebraska.
The confessions of the McNamara
brothers will not. and In common fair
ness should not affect men or organ
izations not shown to be connected
with or having a guilty knowledge Of
the commission of the crimes of which
they have acknowledged guilt"
Governor Eberhart of Minnesota.
TT will have beneficial influence.
1t will have q tendency to make
unions more careful in the selection
Of officials and to avoid the support
Of those who have betrayed their
trust"
This will be beneficial to both the
unions and the people in general.
Governor Burke Of North Dakota.
Their plea. of course. makes their
guilt conclusive. and 1t Is much more
satisfactory than conviction on trial.
Their best friends now have no cause
for complaint, and the prosecution
could not accomplish more by q long
and expensive trial. It will not AFFECT
labor organizations unless they are con-
nected with the crimes for which their
pleas were made"

OF this kind In the future. The element
in union labor that stood for good will

ask every town and community to
