Troubles of a Philanthropist.

With his great experiment in profit
sharing not yet an old story. Henry
Ford already finds out that the path of
philanthrophy runs not smooth. His men
persist IN living as they please, and not
as his As investigators think that they
should. Single men herd in 'deplorable
surroundings, sleeping in shifts and
never bathing One married man keeps
five little ducks in the family bath tub.
Such sinners against the Ford standard
are warned.
"These men Of many nations" says
Mr.. Ford, must be taught American
ways, the English language, and the
right way to live" Single men must
live "under conditions that make for
good manhood" Married men must
not draw chalk lines on the floor and
sublet fractions of rooms, but keep
their households for themselves and for
their families" Men who make from
SIS to So day need not have their wives
take boarderS.
Mr.. Ford will help as well as criticise.
His English school will teach the Ian
guage to men of a dozen different ma
tionalities His lawyers will see that
they are not cheated if they buy houses.
Yet men are obdurate. They dlstrust
paternallsm, even bearing gifts. They
prefer ducks to dctatIon. Their wives,
in the spirit of feminsm, resent interior
ence in their business careers"
What business is it of Henry Ford's to
catch the ducks, scrub the bath tubs. ex-
pei the boarders and make the young
men hire one bed apiece? The very
American spirit that Mr.. Ford invokes
works against him. Probably there are
foolish men in his shops who would much
rather be cheated than to be helped by
company lawyer.-New York World.

More Serious Problem

From all parts of the world comes the
complaint of the dearth of domestic serv-
ants New Zealand in particular is suf.
ierlng from such a shortage. Syndicates
have been formed in various centers for
securing domestic servants from Great
Britain. Emigrant ships on their arrival
in New Zealand ports are beseged by
employers, some of whom go out to meet
the girls IN tugs, in order to engage them
before they land. And in some cases
they are engaged by wireless before the
ships reach port. Factories and shops
are today filled with girls who in former
days would have entered domestic serv-
ice. and it is not surprising that the sup
ply of domestic servants is not equal to
the demand. Work In private families is
not regarded, also, as favorabIy as work
in hotels. where there is greater indepen-
dence and where, owing to the tipping"
system the employees can add very sub
stantlally 10 their wages. The great
trouble is that the EMPLOYERS of domestic
servants are singularly behind the times.
They cannot see the requirements of the
working classes are altered, and that thew
should adapt themselves to the new con-
ditions. In no other employment is CON
slant service exacted to the extent that it
is expected in domestic service. Servants
are moving with the times, while their
employers lag behind. A writer in the
London Guardian proposes that round.
table conference should be called to draw
up rules to govern the relation between
employer and employed in domestic serv-
ice in the same way that rules are drawn
up to govern the conditions of EMPLOY
ment in other careers. From The Church.

leo to speak for all Of the people. 1t
seems to us that the only possibility is
for this nation, and England and France to
form triumvirate to settle the troubles
of Mexico. This seems to be the most
probable solution of the question.
These three nations have more invest
ments there and could have no object
but the good of Mexico in] establishing
constitutional government and the
reign Of law and order for the people.
This seems to be the only hope to end
the spirit of anarchy which now pre-

MEXICO IN A STATE OF AN
ARCHY AND OUR DUTY
TO MEXICO.

1t is now clearly evident that Mexico
is in state of anarchy. That un
happy country is infested with various
bands Of its people at war with each
other, and not one of them can speak
for the nation at large, and if one or two
of any Of the bands engaged in war
We're to agree to peace or mediation,
they could not speak for the others or
for the nation. As the condition of that
nation now exists no peace or mediation
seems possible.
Yet there is constant clamor and az
itation going on in this country as to
whether President Wilson has not made
a mistake in his course in regard to
Mexico They claim that the admins
tration was bound to recognize the Die
tator Huerta as the de facto government.
The President and his cabinet made
no mistake in refusing to recognize
Huerta. In the first place, he has
never been in control of the entire
government. When through his manip-
ulation Madero was foully murdered,
Huerta was only in control of one part
of the people, while the balance of the
people were opposed to him, and the
part of the people in opposition to his
control embraced the better elements of
the people of Mexico.
Our recognition of Huerta then
would have only made it more difficult
for the people to have gotten rid of the
tyrant and the dictator, without better
ing in any degree their condition. Be.
sides this civilized and christian nation
could not recognize man who had sue
ceeded to power by treacherous muir
der, as is admitted now by ALL
The portion of the press opposed to
President Wilson, now claim that it is
our duty to go into Mexico and establish
law and order and constitutional GOV
eminent.
We submit that no such duty rests
upon this country. The Monroe Doc
trine, neither directly or indirectly, i'm
poses any such duty or obligation upon
this nation. The Monroe Doctrine only
imposes upon us the duty to see that no
foreign nation shall acquire any one of
the Central or South American nations
and set up government that may be-
come menace and danger to this gov
eminent, and that is the extent of that
doctrine. And suffice it is to say that
that doctrine never will be extended.
1t is our duty to protect our citizens
in Mexico and their lives and property.
and not only in Mexico, but in every
other country on the globe, and we do
it. We can only protect them and their
property and see that no injustice is
done them by any foreign nation This
means that when our people so into
foreign country and acquire property
they are subject to the laws of that ma
ton, and we are bound to see that they
have fair trial and the full benefit of
the laws. This is all that we have done
in Mexico
We took Vera Cruz because the HUI
erta forces violated the rights of our
citizens and disregarded our national au.
thority, and we only intended to make
Mexico respect both, which we would
have done in the case of any other ma
ton. President Wilson was clear and
distinct in his declaration that we made
no war against the Mexican people, and
he was clearly right.
