NAVAL FILMS
ARE COMING

Who are the marines? What
are their duties? Are they a
part of our military or of our
naval forces? Strange as it may
seem the average civilian can
hardly answer these queries cor
rectly, and yet this splendid or
ganization, aptly termed SOL

1t has remained for Lyman H.

BY FREDERICK NJ, KERRY.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 20.
The People of the United States
versus the Causes of Industrial
Unrest-Frank p. Walsh, chief
attorney for the plaintiff.
That is the title which should
be given to the proceedings OF
the u. s. commission on indus
trial relations which just con-
cluded it's hearings in Washing
ton and is now hard at work for
mulating its final report to con-
gress.
There has been a great deal OF
effort put forth in various
quarters to change that title Of
the case. Nearly every one of the
big employers of labor who APP
peared before the commission
would have preferred to leave
the word causes" out of the title.
Criticism far and wide has
been leveled at the head Of
Walsh, the chairman, because he
did not make the case, 1.-THE Peo-
pie Against Industrial Unrest.
VIII Be Under Fire.
And because he has taken this
position, every effort has been
made, and will be made to dis
credit him and the findings Of
his commission.
The life or the commission
ends by legal limitation in Au-
gust of this year. 1t was created
by congress primarily because
congress wished to dodge the
question of Industrial unrest.
Every time a public question be-
comes so acute that there Is no
possibility of longer ignoring it,
congress creates a commission to
Investigate and report" on 1t.
The commission creates lot
of jobs, employs a number of po-
litical hangers-on, hires a secre-
tary, conducts some hearings and
then writes from one to fifteen
volumes of report" which no
body reads and which is carefully
filed away in the archives of
congress.
This is what many people
thought would happen to the "in-
dustrial unrest" question. But
somehow the scheme slipped up.
1t is true that President Taft

ready large repertoire six entire
ly new ballets. ten divertise-
ments and forty-minute modern
society or ballroom soiree, dur
ing which she will introduce the
three new society dances which
she has originated during the sea-
son, and also her own ideas as to
the proper manner of gracefully
executing society dances now pop
ular with the public.

selected a fine collection of re-
dictionary gentlemen to serve on
the commission, but a few sena-
tors who wanted to see a real in
vestigation held up the nominal
tions. When President Wilson
came into office he named the
present commissioners, and the
commission chose Frank p. Walsh
as chairman. Then things began
to happen.
Calls Big Bugs.
Instead Of the investigation be-
ing turned over to corps OF
clerks and secretaries whose job
1t would be to examine all the
standard works on political econ
omy and write up a nice, volumi-
nous report, Walsh began to call
before the commission people who
really knew or were supposed to
know something about indus
trial unrest"
He went SO far as to summon
and examine real working peo-
ple-trades unionists and other
persons usually called "agita-
tors" reds" and anarchists"
Then Walsh summoned the
heads of big corporations, large
employers of labor, capitalists,
bankers, and proceeded to find
out what they did not know about
labor conditions In their various
properties.
And he was not polite about
1t. He went after these men Just
as an attorney for the plaintiff
would go after recalcitrant
witness for the defense on cross
examination.
During the examination of
young Rockefeller, considerable
criticism was forthcoming at
Walsh's methods.
Contains Facts.
The witnesses protested. Some
newspapers protested. ,Politi-
clans protested. But Walsh did
not waver hairs breath.
And the result is remarkable.
The record contains the facts.
Walsh succeeded where other in
vestigators failed.
Now the country is waiting to
see what will come of 1t all. I'm
less all previous experience is re-
versed, the commissions report
will have no effect whatever on
congress.
But one thing Walsh has done.
He has awakened the country as
never before to the real condi-
tions in industry. And 1t may be
said that the commissions report
will be entirely different from
those which have gone before it.
1t is to be made really to the
country, although nominally to
congress.
There is to be some plain
speaking in 1t, such as the coun-
| try has not heard before. If he
is the only member to sign the
report, Walsh is going to see that
the cease remains The People
Versus the Causes Of Industrial
Unrest.

"Don't you know why,

an inexplicable usefulness.

was pitiably concerned to

CHAPTER TX.

night Powell street crowd seemed
an eternity to me.
My discovery of Annals identity,
combined with the battle against
my old affliction, had left me hag-
gard-a bit irresponsible. was
leaning against the gray bulwark
of the Flood building when Oliver
rushed up.

an hour ago.
"Who?" he queried, bending
close. Anna Sterling? She isn't
the girl you're in love with? Why
it was she was telling you about
at dinner tonight. She's that client
OF mine. Surely there must be
some mistake, John. Is it Anna
Sterling-'Nan'?"
That's what the waiter called
her there, too," l replied apathet-
ically.
Something in me was crumbling
into ruins-the splendid structure
of my love-falling into hot, hor-
rible wreckage.

charge of me like a trained nurse
