Won't Lose His Job.

day and visited Robert Crawford. the

The President sat at the boys bed

the circumstances of the mishap, how
he was trying To dodge stones being
thrown at him by another boy and
turned his bicycle in front Of the au-
tomobile without seeing it.
81 didn't know you were in the ma
chine" Crawford told the President.
He showed Mr.. Wilson his injured
ankle and bruised knee.
I'll be all right in a few days" he
said. II had better be. or I'll lose
my job"
The President treasured him that
folks didn't usually lose their jobs
when they met with accidents and not
to worry about it. The little fellow
beamed with joy at the President 5

of the patients about him and thanked
him for his visit with tears in his eyes.
Mrs. Crawford, the boys mother,
who is employed at the hospital, eX-
pressed her appreciation to the Presi-

Prison System Slavery.

The first IS that the prison system
is absolutely form OF slavery, and
that all the great truths enunciated by
Lincoln and others against negro slav-
cry are just as applicable 10 prison
slavery. 1t takes from the convict his
own initiative and freedom of action
and he becomes an irresponsible au-
tomaton. When he returns 10 the out
SIDE world he finds that he Is unable TO
resume his own initiative and To be the
guider Of his own des.inies. This ac-
counts for so many men who leave
prison and return as second termers.
From the first moment that man
arrives in prison he is made TO realize
that he is no longer an individual
human being. He is only one very un-
important unit in a community which
is undergoing penace for crimes, and
the penance differs only in the matter
of duration. The next companion on
my tier Of cells may be forger, a
burglar. murderer, defaultinS
1dSllleT, he may Dt Il Noll'bt bihh
or Bowery tough. an intelligent
Yankee or an ignorant foreigner, yet
all are clothed alike. treated alike, fed
and housed alike. and each man ceases
To be an individual and becomes a NOV
ing automaton in a gray suit similar 10
all others.
"As one instance Of the unintelligence
of the system there is the attempt to
deprive the prisoners of the normal use
Of their senses Of sight and speech.
After seven days of marching and
concentrating several times a day, |
am utterly unable to tell you about the
appearance Of the men in my rear IN
the double column in which we march.

twenty men who sat in front OF me, but

CALLS WILSON TO RESCUE
Clause in Act Declared to Per-
NIT Filling Internal Revenue
Service with Political
Appointees.
CALLS WILSON TO RESCUE
[Erom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Oct. 5-Vigorous protest
against the danger to civil service reform
ia the income tax section of the new tariff
bill is contained In a communication sen;
10 the President to-day by the National
Civil Service Reform League asking that
he take executive action 70 prevent the
spoils system" from jeopardizng the held
force of the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
The league asks President Wilson to
issue an executive order providing that
the deputy collectors, Inspectors and
agents employed in tine collection OF the
income tax be appointed from competitive
eligible lists Tine letter is signed py
Robert -. jerks, chairman Of the council,
and Robert w. Blecher. After quoting
the income tax section Of the Underwood
bill it SAYS:
This proviso IS practically the same as
10 the method OF appointment as the pro-
vision adopted by the Senate on Septem-
Der o. The last clause, however, Is en-
trely new. We have no information as
TO the reason for it's insertion, but there
can be no doubt that II opens the way TO
filling the general internal revenue ser
vice with political appointees during the
next two years. unless the income tax col
lection force is recruited from civil SER
vice eligible lists.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1913-10-06
Opens Door to Patronage.

"rne clause specifically declares lhdt
the employees appointed under its pro-
visions, when not employed In connection
with the income tax, shall be employed
on general internal revenue work Under
this provision Il would be entirely possible
during the next two years for the Secre-
tarv of the Treasury and the Commits
eioner OF Internal Revenue 10 avoid the
eligible lists for positions in the internal
revenue service by making appointments
as deputy collectors, inspectors, agents
and other employees and clerks for the COL
lection of the income tax and then as
signing such employees TO general internal
revenue work II the appointments or tue
income tax employees are made. as they
NAV be made. without recourse TO the
eligible lists. the result will be the pack
ing OF the internal revenue service with
patronage appointees.
"If. furthermore, an unnecessary num-
Der Of patronage appointments be made
under the income tax law there VIII De
nothing to prevent the Secretary OF the
Treasury and the Commissioner OF lhs
tarnal Revenue from laying of employees
appointed from eligible lists in the regu-
lar manner and retaining the political
favorites who may be appointed without
examination This clause WILL in fact'
terd to increase the temptation TO make
such an unnecessary number of appoint
ments in order to hrd places for political
favorites.
1--WE do not believe these dangers to De
fanciful. but real and serious. We are
sure that you would have no sympath!
with any such attempt to turn the in
te-nal revenue service over to politics.
We venture to point out that tie danger
which We have described can stu DC
avoided by the issue Of an executive or
der that appointments to the income tax
collection force shall he made from the
civil service registers.

Cincinnati. - Especially - What q
grand thing it would be if everyone
within the district Of commercial Gin
cinnati could see the preparations be-
ing made to make Fashion Week In
Cincinnati the most remarkable week
in the history of retail merchandising
in the Queen City.
During Fashion Week-September
29 to October 4-will be displayed IN
the stores of Cincinnati's progressive
retail merchants the very newest,
smartest, most authoritative gems OF
merchandise gathered from the worlds
markets. Everything that any one
ever buys in a retail store will be dis
played in windows trimmed most mag
nificently, for the window trimmers
are competing for money prizes. And
the merchants, you know, are even
more Jealous than the trimmers, for
all are competing, one with another,
in an effort to display the very smart
est things in merchandise.
The main idea of Fashion Week is
not to sell merchandise; the primal,
basic idea is to establish beyond doubt
the fact that Cincinnati is the real
! fashion center in the district within
radius of $50 miles of Cincinnati.
| This is the first time in the history
! of Queen City retail merchandising
that the merchants have come to-
gether to make an exhibition of their
wares simultaneously. Heretofore
there have been individual openings,
and this would afford the visitor or the
shopper merely the opportunity to see
one display. Now the visitor can see,
during Fashion Week, every store ex-
hibiting it's choicest, newest merchan-
disc, embellished with everything that
makes beautiful the displays, all at the
same time.
Fashion Week means that every re-
taller, whether he sells footwear
pianos, sporting goods, apparel of any
| kind-in fact, whatever is retailed will
be displayed to the best advantage
during the week.
There is an interesting story con
nected with the selection of Fashion
Week as the name to describe this
| event in merchandising. The mer
chants of Cincinnati debated long
about the name for the week, some
fearing that the word Fashion" might
be misleading in that it would create
the idea that the week was to be one
merely for the exhibition of apparel.
| But this is not the case at all. You
can see everything that any retail
store carries during Fashion Week
Every merchant, whatever he handles
! has made every effort in his power tc
make his displays most comprehen
sive and during the week there viii
be thousands of special bargains offer
| ed in scores OF stores, and one car
visit Cincinnati during the week O1
September 20 to October 4, convinced
that harvest of bargains is to be had
Don't forget the dates; see the Gin
cinnati papers for announcements Of

PSYCHOLOGY AND JOBS.

DIR. Leonard P. Ayres has Just
written for the United States Bureau

al psychology, that is. psychology as
applied to the man who wants lob.
Psychology, he insists, may deter
mine whether or not candidate for
place as motorman on a street car
or a chauffeur is worthy of the Job.
He calls attention to the fact that
Professor Munsterberg of Harvard
tested motormen in Boston, and
found out by psychology tests that
% per cent of the candidates had
to be eliminated. S. E. Thompson
used psychology tests. called reac-
ton time tests in selecting girls to
pick flaws in the steel balls used In
ball bearings.
DR.. Ayres sees great possibilities
in psychological tests for choosing
the right persons for jobs. He saws:
When the best possible adjust
ment shall have been attained be-
tween work and workmen. each one
will have his full opportunity to
achieve at least something for com.
monwealth and common veal. The
task of the world will be better done
and the worker viii receive greater

The distinction is judiciaily recog-

Whiting holds that license to .prac-
