HELP TO CLOTHING WORKERS
Union carpenters, Locals Nos. 1922
and 1867, have officially donated $50
and $100 to the strike fund of the
Amalgamated Garment Workers.
While the Amalgamated is not
member of the A. F. of L., the car
penters want the public to know that
they are strong for the cause of the
striking garment workers. Through
loop dailies the employers tried to
make the. impression that the A. F.
of L. unions wanted to see the Anal
gamated lose the strike. John Wal
ker. president Of H. Fed. of Labor,
gave the lie to this sort of talk in
public address Sunday.
The 500 check of Carpenters
Local No. 1867 is still at The Day
Book office. 1t will be turned over to
the Amalgamated whenever respon-
sible person walks around the corner
from Amalgamated headquarters to
get it. t,s.z

Reports from Washington indicate
that the army and navy plans ap-
proved BY the administration will en-
counter considerable opposition from
Democratic congressman. A suspicion
has even been raised that President
Wilson himself is not sincere 10 his
advocacy of greater military prepared
ness, and that he would not care If
the project were voted down. Con-
gresham Sherwood of Ohio is the au-
thor Of the report. In speech before
the Toledo Central Labor Union, he
said: "a distinguished Democrat told
me that President Wilson is not strong.
ly in favor of this war preparedness,
bnt that be has indorsed it because be
realizes the American people want it.
II organized labor were to protest,
tho president would not support the
scheme" (" Not only does this state.

the army and navy plan, hut 1t is sus-
peoted that the prominent Democrat
he refers to is William Jennings Bry-
an. Other Democrats have voiced
opinion which makes it seem probable
that they will follow Bryan's leader
ship 10 this matter. AS to President
Wilson'S alleged insinosrity, nothing
in his character, as revealed during
his inoumtenoy, supports such a sus-
picion. Mr.. Wilson was. to be sure,

heard in the interest OF humanity.
We had a jolly return to Union
City, coming by that ancient land
mark, Hornheak, and scanning Troy.
Thoughtfully, my guest boarded the
night train for his home, as we babe
him bon voyage.
Lest l forget, you should know my
guest, or who is he. Having known
him we'll for more than third OF CEN
tury, allow me to say he is an interest
ing personality. A farmer went to a
wagon maker to purchase spring wag-
on. The wagon maker began at once
to interest his woud-be-purchaser in a
certain wagon, directing special atten-
ton to the springs. The farmer, how
ever, persisted in pointing out defects in
the workmanship-it was rough, un-
hewn stuff, etc. The salesman would
say: but just consider the springs
made OF the finest wrought steel, SO
elastic, unbreakable, so perfectly adjust
ed, each leaf an exact fiji" So, he met
every criticism of the farmer by talking
up the virtues Of the springs. The farm
er became so obsessed with the impor-
lance and great value OF refined steel
springs that he bought the wagon, altho
its worth was almost entirely in the
springs.
Now when one casually observes my
guest one would not be very much inn
pressed with his physique-he seems to
be rather rough hewn. But if one will
gaze into his eyes-the windows of his
soul, it will quickly be discovered that
the cerebral machinery back of his OPP
tics is OF the very finest quality best
wrought steel. You will see that my
guests eyes reveal at once the highest
qualities OF man. He resides on the
great divide, where from the sun-capped
hills the waters of the east side flow east
to the Tennessee River, while those on
the west side of the same hill flow west
wardly to the Mississippi River with the
rising sun. He travelled west to see his
friend. His name is A. McSwain, M.
D., Paris, Tenn.
