HHERE was a time when most en-
ployers and employees thought that
they were the only factors to be
considered in the adjustment of indus
trial conditions Enlightened employers
and employees long ago learned that in
the final analysis the public is the arbi-
ter as to whether conditions are just or
unjust, right or wrong. Economic loss
due to accidents enormous as it is is
as nothing compared with humane con-
siderations. Prevention is oven more i'm
rortant than compensation.
Voluntary systems of prevention and
relief have been established by numer-
Gus American employers which compare
favoraby with European conditions, but
on the whole the United States is far be-
hind other civilized nations in these mat
ters Employers are not more nor less
to blame for this condition than em-
ployes legislators or the public. We
each and all need educa tfon; we need to
get in tune with the times.
For many years much time and atteA-
tion has been given by the National As
sociation of Manufacturers to the consid-
GRAFTON of accident prevention and relief
,
mittee was formed by the association to
work for progress along this line. Inter-
rogation blanks, mailed to 10000 Ameri-
can manufacturers early in the commit
tees work, brought forth the largest re-
ply in the assC cia TONS history. Ninety
nlne rer cent of the members answering
expressed themselves emphatically in fa
vor of All extended progressive campaign
for accident prevention and compensation
for injured workers.
Progressive employers know that social
legislation is not only desirable from a
humanitarian viewpoint but necessary
from an economic standpoint. Members
have been urged to get under state com
pensation laws wherever thsse are OPP
tional, regardless of the fact that this
means in many cases an Increase of 300
TO 1000 per cent in insurance rates Spe-
clal efforts have been made to have man
ufacturers carry their own relief associa-
tions preferably In corporation with
.thied workers for the reason that which
systems have most effectively reduced
accident rates as well as Industrial un-
rest.
Model workma compensation bills
have been prepared and widely distrib-
cted. These bills are at present before
the legislatures of six states. While
they cover the whole subject the COM
mittee urged an especially strong edu-
cational campaign for the recognition

WAS GROUCHY A
TRAITOR TO
NAPOLEON?

Why did General Grouchy fail to
render the prcpe assistance to Ma
coieon at the battle OF Waterloo? Was
re a traitor 10 Napoleon? Was he Il
traitor to his country? And did he
sall a Victory. ard what vas the price?
These are questions that the French
rcople have asked themselves over and
ever. again during the past century.
victor Hugo settles the question in very
CONC ana magisterial fashion. After
;'as glowing description OF Waterloo in
Les Miserables."y he says:
Was it possible hat Napoleon
should win this battle?! We answer no.
Wlay?'' Because of wellington? Be
ause of Butcher? No. Because of
God"
The question. What part had
Grouchy in Napoleon's defeat al Wa
terlooy' or was his failure to arrive
in time tie reason why the battle was
lost"?' is at least not satisfactorily
answered in "Grouchy's Memoirs" The
battle of Ligny was fought June 16 be-
tween the French and the Prussians
undo! Butcher: on the same day the
French n,anfully engaged the English
at Quartre Bras: June 18 the battle of
Waterloo was fought, which ended by
the timely arrival of Butcher on the
battlefield in the total rout OF the
French.
1t is claimed that Grouchy, who COM
manded the French right wing of 80. 900.
might either by engaging the Prnssians.
nave prevented them from appearing in
time on the battlefield n wrestling the
hard fought victory from Napoleon. or
that he might have appeared on the
battlefield himself in time to crush
wellington before Butcher could pos
sibly have arrived.
Grouchy defends himself by saying
that Napoleon was SO elated over the
victory at Ligny that he felt secure
enough to go to Fleure to bed, leav-
ing Grouchy without any positive or
ders. He followed Napoleon to Fleure
in order to call his attention to The
critical state of affairs, but as he arr
rived early in the morning, and as Ma
poleon had given strict orders not to be
disturbed. 1t was / O'clock in the aft
ernoon before he vas granted an au-
dience.
And even when he did have his in
terview he found Napoleon arbitrary.
and claims that he simply followed in
6tructiOns, as did the gallant leader of
the 600 at Balaclava. recognizing that
1t meant disaster. II Marshal Grouchy
tells the truth, and IL every statement
made by him in his memoirs IL accord-
ing to facts, then it must be admitted
that his reasons for n~On-action were
in the absence OF reasonable designs.
The appointment Of Grouchy was an
unfortunate me-. for the marshal.
though in many respects q great cav

command Of q body Of mixed troops.
and even his cavalry had
been obtained when under the orders
of q superior. But what was mostlnn-

THE NINE
DAYS QUEEN

Was Lady Jane Grey, the nine days
queen Of England, a party to the
scheme of John. Dudley. Duke OF
Northumberland, who manipulated
politics in such q way a . to place the
unfortunate Lady Jane upon the throne
without the strength nor the courage
to uphold what he had done. 1t would
not seem 80, for many things point to
the fact that Lady Jane had no desire
that the honor should be thrust upon
her. and especially since she herself
realized that she was placing her life
In Jeopardy by her actions.
Lady, Jane Grey wa the daughter
1nlaw Of Northumberland, having
married Guildford Dudley. This matct,
was brought about through the en-
billion Of John Dudley to alter the euc-
ce1sion from the Tudors to tho Du3.eys
upon the death Of Edward vi. The
young king seems to have been q party

With Lady Jane and acceded to the
setting a6tde Of his sisters.

Grouchy had not eSough personal au-
thority to enforce his orders on his
corps commanders. and the fiery VAN
damme O only 6spised but hated
him because he had received the baton
which he hoped wde to lave been his.
while Girard, another general under
him., was a personal enemy.
AT IL q. m. on lhe morning of the
battle as Grouchy'4 columns were APP
preaching Wavre, The marshal heard
the commencement of the cannonad-
ing at Waterloo. 4rard entreated him
to march to the sound of the annon
bu Grouchy had What he considered
distinct orders to pursue the P%russians.
At 5 p. IN. he received N~apOleon's dis
patch. hastily writtn at 1 p. m, order
ing him to turn westward n crush
the Prussian corpk but by then his
main force was heavily engaged at
Wavre. and even he had been able
to dispatch part OF his force, it could
not have arrived at Mont st. Jean till
long after the end Nf the battle.
Naturally Napoleon. looking for any
excuse, found at least one In the in
activity Of Grouchy, and made accu-
sations against him 1t will never be
know whether he was justified in so do
ing. AT least Grouchy, by a skillful re-
treat, brought back his $4,000 men to
Paris before the enemy arrived at the
gates.
Grouchy's career ended with the abb
dication of the emperor, nj had the
humiliation OF finding himself subor-
dinate to Davout, an old enemy Like
many another OF the marshals. the vet
eran retained his health n faculties
for many years and defended his char
acter and actions and criticised his n
emies with the same clear logic which
had so powerfully contributed to his
early advancement. Grouchy died in
1S47, and much has been written
against him and in his defense for his
actions at the famous battle of Water
loo.
