THE DEMANDS OF LABOR
WILL Be FORTHCOMING
Opposition to Amendments TO
Antitrust Measure In
House CoIIapses.

Washington. May 29.-Opposition
among the Democrats to demands OF
labor for amendments to the Omni-
bus Antitrust Bill virtually collaps-
ed while the House was concluding
general debate on the measure. Con-
ferences at the White House and at
the Capitol resulted in an under
standing that when the House re-
sumes final consideration of the bill
Wednesday under the "five-minute"
rule. Democratic members of the Ju-
dietary Committee will be solidly
behind amendments providing that;
Labor, fraternal, agricultural or
consumers organizations, shall not
be held or construed to be illegal
combinations in restraint of trade
under the antitrust laws"
None of the acts specified in Sec
ton Is, forbidding injunctions
against peaceable strikes and boy
colts, shall "be construed or held to
be unlawful"
The labor leaders in the House, as
we'll as officials of the American
Federation of Labor. who were in
the gallery throughout the after
noon, gave up their fight for spe-
cifc declaration that nothing in the
antitrust laws should apply to la
Dor unions On the other-hand- lop=-
position to the amendments as now
proposed melted away, members of
the committee contending that they
in reality added little or nothing to
the bill.
The Antitrust Bill will he dispos-
ed of, according to present indica-
tions, either Friday or the first part
of the next week. The Railroad
Stocks and Bonds Control Bill. the
last measure on the antitrust pro-
gram. is expected by its sponsors to
occupy the rest of the week. Then
the three bills will be finally dis
posed of and sent over to the Sen
ate.

FAR PLAY FOR THE JEW
IN INDUSTRIAL AFFAIRS

Complaint is made that the Jews
are getting control OF everything in
this country. For example. in the
last thirty years they have swept all
others aside, and to-day practically
monopolize the clothing of 10000
900 Americans. The Jews have like
wise gained control of the big de-
partment stores, the whiskey trade
and the theaters, II is said. What
will Americans control thirty years
from now?" some one asks. II the
Jews have won this success. II Is be-
cause of their superior intellectual
ability and tremendous powers of
application.
When a Jew has acquired proper

eral spender. Until that time comes
there is no one so ready TO deny
himself the little comforts Of life,
plodding along uncomplainingly for
years, until fortune smiles upon
him. Nor do the children simply
squander what their parents have
earned. The boys are trained to
take up the work their parents have
started, and carry It forward to
greater results. II IL be true that
the Irish, the Germans and the
Americans are giving way before the
Jews. II is up to the former to take
few lessons in thrift and business
management from the latter.
In the labor unions. 1t is said. OPP
position toJews is becoming so acute
that Jewish workers have been driv-
en- to the expedient of organizing
Jewish unions of carpenters, house,
smiths and sheet metal workers.
When several more OF the building
trades have been organized with
Jewish workers, Max Kasimirsky.
general organizer of the United He
brew Trades, says that President
Gompers of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, will be asked to take
steps for their amalgamation with
the unions of men of other national
tiles to avoid the competition of ri
val unions in the different trades.
But If the Jewish mechanic makes
the same success the Jew has made
in mercantile life. We shall soon
hear the complaint that he is mo-
nopolizing everything in the trades
also. - From Leslie's.

KENTUCKY FAR BEHIND

No, Kentucky is all right. her peo-

all right What is needed is just a
little good housekeeping. Some of
these days that job will be attended
to and with such emphasis that the
politicians will be years recovering

A female unmarried and without

less money than would support

lines of endeavor. and for this rea-
