Favors Giving Real Hearing to Clti'

Vital Question.

A referendum of the whole question
relating to the District government to
the people of the National Capital is
suggested in a letter addressed today
to the joint select committee OF con-
gress investigating the fiscal relations
between the United States and the DIS
trict of Columbia. by Roy C. Claf1ln,
chairman of the District Delegate AS
sociation.
This letter urges that the congress
sional committee make no recommen-
dations for a change in the bistrlct
government or the fiscal relations be-
tween the United States and the DIS
trict ct this time. 1t asks the COM
ufttee to recommend to Congress that
a popular election be held in the DIS
trict in the near future to pass upon
these questions, so that Congress may
know just what the people of the DIS
triCt really do want.

President Wilson Informed No
Time Will Be Lost in Re-
vising the Rules.
FIGHT, If THERE IS ANY,
TO BE SHORT AND SHARP
Senator Owen, Chairman Of Special
Committee, Visits White House
Frimed With Material.

President Wilson has been
made acquainted with the pur-
pose OF the democrats OF the Sen
ate to revise the rules of that
body at the first tap of the bell
upon the assembling OF Congress
and to put the new rules, which
will permit the previous parlia-
mentary question to be moved
without unnecessary delay, right
down the tl1roats OF the opposi-
ton in as short time as possible.
According to the democratic plan the
fight in the Senate. if there is to be any,
will be short and sharp, and when the
upper house of Congress finally gets
down to q consideration of real busi-
ness it Will do SO under new rules, the
chief feature of which will provide for
shutting off all debate that is ap-
parently not sincere and which will
enable the majority of the body to
transact business with genuine dis
patch.

LABOR TROUBLE TO COME TO
SHOWDOWN TODAY?


Decision for peace or war to the
finish in building trades labor circles
may be made at a conference to be
held late today between union lead
ers and employers.
The meeting is expected to mark
the crisis of the perplexing labor sit
Uation. It was predicted this morn
ing that the result of the meeting
would be declaration of war from
the unions who refuse to accept the
universal agreement.
Eve will enter the conference with
our old proposition, - said Albert Alex
of the fathers today. I'VE will ask
that the UNIVERSAL agreement be put
up tO-the individual unions for &C
ceptance or rejection, or else that GER
tain clauses inimical to the welfare
of all unionism be modified. We will
ask the privilege of sympathetic
strike, granting at the same time that
there shall be no privilege of juris-
dictiOnal strikes. We also protest
against the clause which permits the
use of any material other than that
which is prisOn-made.
''This clause would sound the
deathknen of honest unions. At pres
ent we can demand of the contractor
that he use Union-made materials
when possible. That is the only pro-
lection the shop unions have, for they
are not in a position to fight a good
battle of their own against open-shop
conditions.
abolish the sympathetic strike
and give the contractors full liberty
to use non-union, low-wage materials
and you will strike at the very roots
of the main bUlWark Of Unionism."
None of the four insurgent unions
has been won over to the agreement.
It was admitted by employers today
that the painters are almost certain

ENGLAND AND GERMANY OPEN
PRISON CAMPS FOR PROBE
Berlin, March 80. - Germany has
agreed to throw open her military
prison camps for an inspection by an
American commission. England is
understood to have accepted the
same offer and the trips Of inspection
are to begin Immediately upon the
arrival of the commission in Europe.
Ten Americans will constitute the
commission. They will visit Al pTis-
on camps in Germany.
Under the terms of this agreement
the commission will be permitted to
make a thorough inspection of every
prison camp in Germany and Eng
land and examine prisoners out of
earshot of their guards, to hear all
complaints and to endeavor to ar
range minor disagreements between
the authorities and the prisoners.
Copies of the commissions report
will be forwarded to each of the bel
Igerents. The commission will en-
body in it's conclusions a recommen-
dalton that the warning powers adopt
a uniform prison policy regarding
supplies of food, correspondence, the
amount of exercise to be allowed pris-
oners and their general treatment by
their guards.
Ambassador Gerard already has
been successful in ameliOrating the
conditions of Germany's prisoners of
war.

law applies to the physical just as surely
as 1t does to the spiritual The mental

tice how that affects all around you, and
with your mental attitude depressed,
down." your bodily resistance to the
various germs is greatly lessened.
Then, again, fear intensifies pain, mis-
interprets sensation, exaggerates abnor-

regarding the bodily state. Faith acts as
a corrective; 1t destroys the effects of
fear, steadies the imagination, and is
essential to healthy mental action.
Hate also; consider its effects on the
body. 1t creates a deadly poison in the
system OF the person who harbors the
evil passion. You send out your hate
thoughts and they return in the shape
of a deadly poison that seeks to destroy
you.
Can we afford to be mentally I'M
healthy? When We see the dreadful and
deadly effects of anger, hatred, sin and
deceit. surely the universal answer
must be NO.

truism. the unalterable law Of which
has just begun to be proved, is that the
thought and consequent deeds that we
send out return to us threefold. be they
good or bad.
This may at first sight seem to be but
a statement, and nowadays we want fact,
not fiction. but consider the matter as
present it to you and see if I am not
right.
Did you ever start out in the morning
feeling miserable, downcast and heavy
hearted-in other words, blue-and In 60
ing to work or play. as the case may be,
you met some one, man or woman, VINO
perhaps first attracted you by his or her
upright carriage and smiling face? One
instinctively looks at the person. who.
with shoulders back and head erect,
walks along, ready to meet the best and
brightest in life Did you not ever feel
your shoulders involuntarily straighten,
your head lift and the corners of your
mouth turn up? Then before you your
self realized it you were smiling and the
gloom and depression you felt vanished
In other words. the smiles you give out
are reflected on the faces of those around
you. So much for example.
The same thing applies to business.

the best of people and you are likely to
receive it.
Now. do not begin to think of the
times YOU have been done We all can
recall such incidents, but after all were
they not the exception rather than the
rule? And one cannot argue from excep-
tons, can one?
The influence of a good deed is so wide
spread in its effect that we cannot even
guess at its limits. When one soldier
straightens up his shoulders the whole
line feels it and instinctively straightens
also. All these are not vague theories.
but proven truths-proven every day by
countless men and women. See to II
that YOU from row on count yourself
among their number whose influence Is
for uplift of body and mind.
Mind and matter are so closely related
that your body is compelled. to a very
great extent, to reflect the thoughts that
are occupying your mind. Again, the
universal law of sowing and reaping. for
the thoughts you send out are reflected
