CALLING STRIKES LIGHTLY.

significant labor measure is now under consideration ny the French cabinet. Ii Is provision which makes it necessary for both parties to a labor dispute to lay their grienances i,eforc justice of the peace before calling q strike. By introducing q third party into such disputes the French government hopes to minimize inc number Of trikes that arc 80 often called for trival reasons. or n" rcison at all.
 The indisCrimin;itc strike is a pro- blcm in the United States fully as much ns it is in France. Fortunately many labor unions in this country have become aware of this problem ahead of the public and are now do- ing everything in their power to save themselves from tho taunt of calling strikes lightly. The surcst way for Il la bor leader in the best unions to cut his career short nowadays Is to plunge his union into war when m umicablo settlement of tho differences could have been brought about.
 Most of the leading branches of the clothing industry in New York arr HOW working under agreements with their employers which provide for m arbitration board. These boards take up the grievances arising from time to tune between workers und employers and settle "them amicably without Causing cessation of work.
 According to recent report by tho bureau of labor statistics in Washing ten. conciliation and arbitration havc been n feature n tho. building trades in Greater New York for nearly u gem cratiOn.

NOME. ALASKA. FEB. 2s, 1914

A news bulletin tells us that in New Zealand all males are obliged to do military duty from fourteen to twenty one years of age. and schools are re. quired to withhold scholarship grants from any student who cannot prove that he has compiled with the pro- visions of the drill.
 New Zealand is much newer country than Is the United States and 1t Is also far less liable to attack than is the United States for New Zealand is under the protecting wing of Eng land and England is n country that will brook very little in the way of insult to her people or her colonies.
 And yet New Zealand feels that the youth of the land should bc trained in tho art of war.
 In America we are quite the reverse We depiore anything in the shape of military education for the youth of tho land and we sit back in our blind and arrogant ignorance and declare to ourselves that no power on earth can whip the United States. Some of us go 90 far as to declare this in public places where the representatives of other countries hear our boasting, and. if they know anything about military matters they laugh at us
 Perhaps wo can stand the scorn of the nations of the world who smile at our febel military power. It is not perhaps pleasant. but we may blufr along and pretend not to mind it. But 1t is a crying shame that VIC should be allowed to fool ourselves into the be lief that wc are in any sense able to either defend ourselves or be tho ag- gressors in a military campaign.
 Right now the United States is ter ribiy handicapped in her dealings with Mexico from the fact that we havc not the propcr military force with which 10 back up any demands we may make on either the federal or tho constitutional government.
 That sounds lilec m absurd statc- ment to make. but 1t is the truth nevertheless and they know 1t so well down In Washington that military operations against Mexico arc tho last thins In tho world that the rulers want to undertake.
 The average American patriot be- lisves and that is the pity of 1t all. he really believes that hts country and his countsymsn arc invinciblc. That we can whip tho world and that oil that is necessary ia for the president of the United states to mention tho number Of men hc will need and in a fsw days the threatened frontier or
The Nome daily nugget., 1914-02-28

1 the border win be teeming with val liant and devoted soldiers ready to
 win glorious victories for the Ameri- can flag.
 In this belief tho ignorant people, arc partly right. They are right in that all the president has to do is to men, tion the number of soldiers required for certain purpose and he will forthwith huve the men. There is tn. difference. He will call for soldiers. and he will get men. Splendid. ct urageous. patriotic men who will fight and die like the heroes that they are. but NOT soldiers. :.
 He will not get soldiers. Volunteers are not soldiers. though they are the material from which soldiers are sometimes made. Milit!s are not soldiers and they ars frequently worse than the volunteers for ther, is sc n,"ch that trey must unlerf7 r.f"r" they can begin to learn to be soldiers. Of the two classes the raw volunteer Is perhaps the choice. He has nothing to unlearn.
 Take the question that seems to be before the public at present. The D, ssible invasion of Mexico by the United States. Not long ago a free and independent citizen of the United states. who ought to know better. said that five thousand American soldiers could cross the Rio Grande and march into Mexico City. They could if there was no opposition on the part of the Mexicans and they did not die of dis case. or get cactus thorns in their feet.
 But marching into Mexico City and pucifying Mexico are two very diff ferent things.
 The general stan of the United States army, whose business 1t Is |" know such things does not think that three hundred thousand men would b. too many for the purpose of taking. holding and properly governing Mex ico. And that would be the only reason in the world for going in there at all. To govern the country until n was ,,apable of governing itself.
 Three hundred thousand men. More than the regular army and militia put together. Twice as many men as at present even make a pretense of be- ing soldiers.
 Where are we then going to get the rest? Volunteers. untrained. undici- plined. undrilled and for at least a year almost useless.
 Rm the worst of it is that if we were compelled to call upon this vol unteer force we have not the arms md equipment that would he re- Guired.
 They know all of this in Washing ion and they hesitate. Can anyone hlHme them?
 If We must in future he dependant upon volunteer army two things should be done. The youth of tho land. Everyone of them. as in New Zealnnd. should be trained as a sol lier and there should be on hand a supply of arms. equipment and am intuition sufficient to our needs.
