Great Industries Of the
Country Target Of Fed
eral Commission.
SCORES OF WITNESSES
Labor Leaders, Social Work
ers, and Philanthropists
to Testify.

NEW YORK; Jan. 11.--Frank P.
v Walsh, chairman Of the federal
commission on Industrial relations,
tonight outlined the purposes Of the
hearing which win begin in this city
next Monday.
He declared the commission wishes
to find out whether or not the prin-
.ciples Of democracy are being re-
spected and maintained in our great
basic mdustrles'.
During the inquiry many noted men
and womcn-capitahsts philanthro-
pists, social workers, labor leaders,
writer's and others-Will be witnesses
The fundamental principle Of
democracy IS that the people shall
have compelling voice in determin-
Ing the laws and form OF govern
mont Under which they live" Mr..
Walsh said. That principle is now
being applied to industry and public
opinion Is rapidly coming to concede
the necessity Of giving wage -earners
a voice In determining working con-
ditions if they are to enjoy the meas
ure of freedom which the founders
OF our country intended.
Philanthropy Workers.
The men who control our greatest
Industries are, in many instances, the
men who are most active in pro-
noting philanthropy and social bet
terment work. They have set aside
vast sums OF money as permanent en-
downents and their expenditures are
rapidly giving them a compelling in
tlucnce in the fields of philanthropy,
economic and sociological
resources and other branches of So
cial hetterment work by which the
thought Of the country is nodded.
IF the record Of these men in the
Of industry shows a be-
lief in democratic principles and
firm adherence to those principles,
then we have nothing to fear for the
present, at least, in their interest in
philanthropic and educational moves.
But the commissions recent inquiry
Into the coal miners strike in Colo /
rado indicated that this is not the /.

GUNNER BOASTS ABOUT

Atlanta, Ca. June 19.-Wounded
recently at Ypres by a shell falling
near the gun he was operating, and
now convalescing in England at the
home of a relative, Grady Powell,
of Lincolnton, Ga, has written to
friends here that in the short time
he has seen service as member of
the Canadian Artillery he has fired
5000 shells and has killed 5000,
Germans. He says each shrapnel
contains 365 bullets, and fragments
of the shell will account for enough
to make one shell worth 500 projec-
tiles. He believes that every other
shell got at least one man. One he
says he knows killed forty-three.
Every timee drop shell in
their trenches and see a bunch of
legs and arms fly about twenty feet
up in the air, can't help feeling
mighty nice about it, for | know

"Grandfather Clause" En-.
aCtments Held Void.
The LITERACY TEST LEGAL
But No Right Exists to Select
Arbitrary Date For Its
Endorsements.
1T AFFECTS SEVERAL STATES

Washington, June 21.--In a de-
cision so broad as probably to annui
grandfather clause enactmerts in
every Southern State which has
adopted such laws, the Supreme
Court to-day held invalid Oklahoma
and Maryland legislation aimed at
restricting the negro vote. The de-
cision was unanimous.
The decision, in short, was that
IL is violation OF the Fifteenth
amendment for a State to select ar.
bitrar!ly a date, such as 1860, md
provide that persons not qualified to
vote on that date or whose ancestors
were not so qualified, are barred
from voting or must submit to vot-
ing tests not required of others.
The court further held that cleo
ton officials who sought to enforce
such clauses could be held amena-
BILE to law for denying persons a
right to vote and that such officials
could not disregard the fact that the
Fifteenth amendment had stricken
out of the State law the word
white" as a qualification of voting.
Property and other tests for vot-
ers enacted by the Maryland Legis-
lature for Annapolis in the same
act in which the grandfather clause
was inserted We're held to be so
closely related to the grandfather
clause as to mae all the qualifca-
tions fall.
For more than fifteen years the
grandfather clause has been in
serted in constitutions of Southern
States. The most popular form has
been to exempt from educational
and property tests for voting. those
who could vote in 1866, 1867 and
1865, thus leaving the tests to apply
to those who did not vote at those
dates.
The Oklahoma grandfather clause
provides that no person shall be
registered as an elector in this State,
or be allowed to vote in any election
herein, unless he be able to read
and write any section of the consti-
tuition of the State of Oklahoma, but
no person who was, on January l,
1866, or at any time prior thereto,
entitled to vote under any form of
government. or who at that time re-
lineal descendant of such person,
shall be denied the right to register
and vote because of his inability to
so read and write sections of such
constitution"

SHRAPNEL FOR GREAT =
BRITAIN AND HER ALLIES

Lynn, Mass, June 19.-Five-inch
shrapnel shells are being produced
at the rate. of 5000 per day at the
plant of the General Electric Com
pany, in this city, for the British
army. The work was begun less
than two weeks ago, and, from the
manner in which the daily produc-
tion has been steadily increased, it
is believed that the output will be
considerably more than 5000 with
in another week.
The work is being done under the
supervision of three Englishmen,
who, workmen say, seem to be
clothed with sufficient authority.
Whether the production of am
munition extends to the other plants
of the General Electric Company is
not known here. but, from the speed
which is being insisted upon in pro-
ducing the shrapnel, it is believed
that the company has accepted an
order from Great Britain and her
allies necessitating the expenditure
of millions of dollars.

CRIPPLE WAS SHOT AS
HE SAT IN HIS BUGGY

Central City, KY. June 19.-
Fred Humphrey, 35 years old, was
shot and is thought to be fatally
wounded by Ed Amos. SO years old,
late this afternoon. 1t is alleged
that Amos approached Humphrey,
who was sitting In a buggy, and af-
ter. some words, drew pistol from
his pocket and fired a shot into the
right side of Humphrey. The
wounded man was taken to the
home of Mel Amos. where doctors
probed for the bullet, but were un-
able to locate it. Humphrey is a
cripple, having been paralyzed from
the waist down five years ago, when
a shot fired at close range lodged in
his spinal column. He has a wife
and three children. Amos fled from
the scene of the shooting and con-
cealed himself in the home of John
Amos, where officers arrested him,
taking him to the county jail at
to await the result of the
shooting.

HIGH COURT SAYS WIVES
MUST BE FORBEARING

Frankfort, KY, June 19.-Pa-
thence, forbearance and sympathy
must be exercised by the wife in re-
forming and assisting a husband to
overcome his weakness or else all
mony will not be allowed in this
State in case of a divorce. Such
was the opinion of the Court of APP
peals in reversing the Jefferson Cir
cult Court in the case of William A.
Benedict against Florence +. Bene-
dict.
Mrs. Benedict had secured di-
vorce and S35 month alimony.
Benedict is an assistant engineer of
the city of Louisville. Having mar
ried without large bankroll, Bene-
dict, in order to obtain a fortune
began to play the races, it was
charged, and instead of making
money, lost 500. This, it is said,
he ept from his wife, whome he
was trying to make believe that he
had plenty of money until he was
compelled take advantage of the
bankrupt law.
Then the domestic troubles of
Benedict and his wife became nu-
merous. Mrs. Benedict sued for di-
vorce. stating that she would not
live with a man who tried to deceive
her.
This, the court says, is not
ground for divorce in this State, be-
cause the court says it is the duty
of the wife to be patient, forbearing
and sympathetic until the husband
can overcome his weakness.
