TREASURY TO PAY
ON LAST OF MONTH
Employees to Receive One Day
Benefit From Order Issued
by Secretary McAdoo.

All Treasury Department employees
will be paid on the last day OF the
month in the future. instead of on
the FIRST or second. In response to
an inquiry from Secretary McAdoo.
the Comptroller held that payments
could just as well be made on the
last day of the month as on the first
day Of the next month, and that there
was nothing In the law TO prohibit
such payments.
Pay rolls can be certified on the
last day, and employees paid on that
day, he held. The fact that an en-
ploye's status, might be changed by
death, dismissal, suspension, or other
incident, would not change the status
for that day. II being recognized that
such employe would get the full days
pay. Even in case OF demotion, the
Comptroller held II would not afect
the status of that day.
1t Is recognized the Comptroller held
that salaries for the day, are earned as
soon as the day begins. and there are
few things that could otherwise change
the status. The chief objection to pay
ments on the last day was that en-
ployes, particularly piece rate employees,
might be absent without pay for a part
of the day. The Comptroller overruled
this by declaring that correction could
be made In this case, that at present
the rolls were not free from correction.

Just as a small boy with a bunch of
ffrecrackers may make more noise than
thousands of citizens who go. quietly
about their business syndicalism. be-
cause of the noisiness of its procedure,
is giving the world the impression that
it is the whole of the working class.
And above all, it is palming itself off
as socialism, and that in spite of the
fact that the last National Socialist
convention bitterly condemned it.
Syndicalism is in agreement with
socialism in its diagnosis of the eco
nomic process and present economic
conditions. Each is based on the phil
osophy of the class struggle, of sur
plus value, and the obsoleteness of
present methods of production, distri-
button and exchange. Each is filled
with the conviction that history calls
to the worker class to carry society
through it's next stage of evolution.
Syndcaiists For Radical Action.
While they agree in their diagnosis
of the case they fundamentally disa-
gree as to the remedy. The situation is
analogous to the case where two doc
their patient but can't agree as to the
treatment; one recommends a long
course of constitutional treatment, the
other Is set on operating. The Syndi-
calist wants to perform a surgical op-
Grafton on society. Impotence with
slow methods is the very essence of
his creed. He sees society coming to
a new birth but grows so excited he is
all for Selling the forceps and forcing
the denoument before its time.
In the Syndicalist's platform for So
cial reconstruction there are two main
planks, quite peculiar to himself. One
is the shape of the new society he SO
laboriously seeks to create. He Is very
certain about this, even to details.

Hot Weather Tips

Some rules for hot weather are in order.
In the first place to be healthy during the
summer months does not require rigorous self
denials-just common sense
Before breakfast take bath and make a re-
duction in your diet, going shy meats as
possible and appease your appetite to reasona-
tle degree on vegetables and fruits.
Avoid ice water and cultivate the lemonade
habits splendid hot weather drink.
Avoid direct rays as plague and take
healthful exercise in moderation.
The greatest dangers of hot weather are sun
stroke and heat exhaustion. The former results
from direct exposure to the and the latter is
caused by excessive heat in buildings. A sun
stroke infames the body The face becomes
very red. After you have summoned physician
for victim Immediately treat him with cold ap-
plications.
In the of heat exhaustion the body of the
victim becomes cold and clammy. The treatment
for heat exhaustion is to apply warmth to
the body.

ton.
trade, profession or calling its own Pc
culiar place and sphere. These are gra-
ded according to Importance. The
whole fluid mass of society is forced
into a rigid military-like mold. There
is the department of agriculture, and
the department of mines and metal
urgy and of mechanics, ETC., etc,;
schools, libraries, and similar institu-
lions have scant recognition, while the
church is left out altogether. The
preacher class, according to the Syndi-
calist, is superfluous and fit for moth
ing save elimination.
This whole rigid scheme is one
which must be manufactured and the
Syndicalist is proceeding to do the
work The very keynote of his meth
DDS whereby he hopes of such accom-
plishment is direct action" Direct &C
ton is the opposite of legislative &C
ton. To him the latter method is al
together too slow and old fashioned.
The idea of having the people take
over an industry through taxation,
purchase or duplication is to him abb
surd. If the people want it, he argues,
let them take it without more ado. Go
in and run the boss" out and let the
workers take possession. That's direct
action The essence Of il
Workers to Run Everything.
The workers will take possession,
according to the Syndicalist; not SUI
perintendents, or managers, or repre-
sentatives. He has scant use for any
one who does not work with his hands.
His whole social scheme excludes any
other class. Women and children and
the aged and artists and musicians
and poets, and etc, are all superflu-
Gus according to his way of thinking.
Furthermore he would exclude any
from ownership in given industry
except those directly employed in it.
Here he parts company with the So
cialist and heads in an altogether diff
ferent direction. The Socialist wants
to see the basic industries owned by
the people, all the people, but the Syn
dicalists wants them owned on the
guild system by the workers in them.
The Syndicalist is SO eager to des-

of his limbs and faculties, and is substantial
ly free from debt. Hunger, cold, rags, hard
work, contempt, suspicion, unjust reproach are
disagreeable, but debt is infinitely worse than
them all. And if it had pleased God to share
either or all my sons to be the support and soace
of my declining years, the lesson that have most
earnestly sought to impress upon them is: "Nev-
er run into debt! Avoid pecuniary obligation as
you would pestience famine. If you have but

Battered the pride from Caesars face;
When Plaques foul legions filled the Seine
With corpses, and bestank the plain

General WoodHPeace Advocate


of the United States army, challenged the
Douglas in his hail. Tuesday, when he spoke
at the Pittsburg Carnegie Institute of Technolo-
gy, "Our Military Policy to Preserve Peace"
That the institution in which he spoke was found
ed by our leading and very impractical exponent
of international peace did not prevent General
Wood delivering some very plain, unvarnished
truths. He said among other things:
II do not wish to introduce a spirit of crit-
cism against the peace policies which are being
instituted by your founder, Mr. Carnegie, but
want to impress upon you that as much as we
want to avoid war we can't do it. We know that
it is arrant nonsense to say that the day of war
is over. Wars are not made by individuals, but
by the pressure of public events
There is sound logic in the generals state
ent, logic that has never been refuted in the nu-
arguments for disarmament the part
of this republic which Mr.. Carnegie has advanced
from time to time.
General Wood also went into detail to show
congress- criminal neglect in it's persistent
fusals to improve our system Of national defense
The American people should congratulate
themselves that they have such Gener
Ell Wood at the head of their military establish
ment. He has made it a part of the duties of his
office to speak frankly and directly to the people
tary needs and Selling upon every opportunity to
explode the common fallacy that this country is
free of the menace of war. He has also been do
ing excellent work in impressing upon the Amer
lean people that success in modern warfare
qures more than the bulldog courage of the
Anglo-Saxon race.
He is brutally blunt in his expositions of our
military weaknesses, but to correct them he is
compelled to adopt such policy. If congress
fails to listen to his intelligent advice he takes
his directly to the people, and they like him
for it.
General Wood, because of his little habit of
appealing to public opinion to support the re-
forms he proposes, has won the enmity of many
powerful men in both branches of congress. Last
year he advocated the abandonment of useless
army posts for economic and to improve
the effectiveness of the regular army. Senators
and congressman who valued these posts for po-
lltical reasons then intrigued to depose General
Wood as chief of staff. They would have sue
ceeded too, but for the fact the public and the
intelligent press for the time being took enough
interest in military affairs to rally to the sup
port of the general. One of the first acts of
President Wilson, as result, was the reappOnt-
ment of General Wood to the position he has
filled so capably and periodically.
If the gospel that General Wood and Colonel
Roosevelt preach-preparedness for warts &C
Cepted by the American people, the perpetuation
of the era of peace lnls republic now enjoys will
lie more certain than by the adoption of the
utopan policies advocated by Mr. Carnegie.

SOCIALISM
"SyndicdHsm; a False Socialism"
By II. L. Haywood

troy the capitalist owner hide and hair
that he has even invented a method OF
harassing and worrying him so as 10
weaken his grip and has this already
in operation. He calls it sabotage"
Sabotage, when boiled down, means
just this, Cut into your bosss profits
and break him down whenever you
can, by fair means or foul"
Machinists are taught how to drop
little emery dust into delicate bear
ings, or TO break a cog here or there
so as to cripple a costly piece of mech
anism; engineers are made skilled in
the gentle art of letting an engine go
to smash through accident; truckers
are told to let all the cut glass and
perishable materials fall on hard paw
ing or into the water whenever posi-
BILE; clerks are instructed TO tell only
the bald truth about the goods they
sell, which is very bad craftsmanship
from some merchants point of view;
and workers in every line are urged to
destroy and injure in an underhand
way so as to escape detection and thus
cut big holes into the income of the
owner.
This sort of doctrine is being preach
ed to workers everywhere by Syndical-
ist leaders. Just the other day in a
KokOmo strike the Socialist" paper of
that city urged the strikers to return
to work and use sabotage. The idea is
that ultiamtely it will be impossible
to run an industry with profit so that
the capitalists will go bankrupt and
be obliged to quit. At that juncture
the workers will step in.
Use of "Irritation Strike"
Meanwhile the Syndicalist leader is
training the worker class in the art
of solidarity, from the Syndicalist
standpoint His chief instrument in
this is the Irritation strike" Accord
ing to this, workers are led on a strike
at times, not because they have
grievance or want more pay, but just
to irritate the boss. He finds the mill
closed down at the very time he ex-
pected to run nights to get out bunch
Of hurry-up orders. His men will go
out in the middle of his busy season;
or they will quit Immediately after he
has given them a raise. Naturally he
becomes "irritated." He begins to dis

trust his men more and more, he soon
begins to hate them and he at last
will come to abuse them. That pleases
the Syndicalist. He is glad to have ha-
tired stirred up between master and
men. He views the class struggle as
clash between personalities.
At the same time the workers have
been more solidly united We become
more than ever attached to a cause
when we have had to suffer for it; not
until then have we realized its full
value. After one fight in which they
have harrassed and crippled their
boss the men are all the more willing
for another. And thus the lines are
more tightly drawn and the social
judgment day draws apace.
Socialists Disapprove This.
From all of which the Socialist most
earnestly dissents. He denies that So
ciety can ever be wholly industrial.
The attempt to bring all things under
such a generalization is to him folly.
Also he condemns the undue hasten
ing of the revolution which will shift
society from it's individual to its fu-
ture social base. That revolution, like
all others of a similar nature which
have preceded it, will come through a
gradual process, with more or less in
evitable friction perhaps, but at any
rate in no violent leaps. Even now, he
believes, We are in the midst of it.
More than all, he condemns the Syn
dicalist's doctrine of sabotage from the
working class standpoint. Workers are
humans; they will quarrel and fall
out. Just watch the Syndicalists them
selves, urges the Socialist At their
very first quarrel they will begin to
use sabotage on each other and then
where will your class solidarity be?
