MESSAGE TO LABOR UNIONS

MESSAGE TO LABOR UNIONS
The Illinois State Federation of
Labor sends the following message to
the trades unionists of Illinois:
Never before in all the history of
our country have the exploiters of the
people been so thoroughly organized
as they are at the present time. Never
before have they been so active in so
many different avenues. Never before
have they been so determined to
crush labor into submission, or pre-
vent it's progress and never before

Nevertheless, the cable Office at
Vera Cruz is understood to be under
martial law, and every word of copy
is subjected to the strictest censor
ship. ~
Correspondents cannot go to Vera
Cruz to tell about things there I'M
less they become to all intents and
purposes members of the army and
subject to military discipline. They
are required to file bond in the sum
of $4,000, binding their employers
that they shall live up to every order
of every petty officer entrusted with
the censorship functions. The pen
atty is deportation and forfeiture of
the bond.
1t is the belief of members of con-
gress that the boys in the navy and
army are as good as boys elsewhere.
It is not assumed that our soldiers
in either branch are any more brutal
than civilians or than other soldiers.
These acts. if they have taken place,
illustrate how young men otherwise
decent and humane, when excited by
the blood lust of first experience in
killing their fellow-men in time Of
war, as they thought it was, become
brutalized and commit acts which are
disgraceful to the service, and which
the laws of civilized warfare seek to
curb and which discipline is supposed
to check.
The situation here is one which will
not tolerate any casual white-wash-
ing operation in Vera Cruz. The in
vestigation, which Daniels has order
ed, is not confined to the court OF in
quiry.

The "Fun-Sun" Box.

In a home where there are three
children, the problem Of amusement
on rainy days was to be considered.
A large box was covered with green
denim, and the words "Fun-Sun" stem
ciled on 1t. This was placed In the
nursery. Into this box went rejuve-
mated toys, pictures. anything thrown
aside and mended, or unusual scraps.
From time to time the children them
selves bought from their allowances
some little thing for the box. It was
opened only on rainy days or In i'll
ness. Last year their father added
three tig-saws and several strips of
thin board. 1t is treat for the chill
dren to open this box, for there are
always some new things in 1t. Now
rainy days have no terror for the chill
dren, who turn contentedly to the
'Fun-Sun" box.
