Third Week Ends With 1.137
Bills Introduced i'm the
Two Houses.
SEVENTY-FIVE HAVE PASSED
Those Enacted Into Law Are Mostly
Unimportant-264 Have Been Re-
ported FavorabIy and 21e
Killed i'm Committee.

Topeka.-The third week of the
legislative term has passed with 1,137
bills introduced in the two houses,
seventy-fve, mostly unimportant, en-
acted into law, 212 killed in commit
tees, seven killed on the floor, eighteen
withdrawn, 264 reported favorably by
committees and placed on the calen-
dar, and $50 still in committees.
With this flood of bills, the hope of
an early adjournment has vanished. 1t
is still hoped that the two houses will
speed up and make the session
shorter than usual but there is not
much chance that the fifty days for
which the members receive pay under
the constitution will find the work
finished A ray of hope is that of the
bills reported nearly so per cent have
been reported adversely by the COM
mittees. If this proportion holds out
the two houses may be able to gain
headway
For the first time since the session
began both houses worked through
Saturday, grinding out score or more
unimportant measures through the
committees of the whole. Resolutions
have been introduced for final intro
duction of bills on February 8. If this
date is adhered to the adjournment
likely will occur a month or five weeks
later.

LABOR LOSES TEST IMcouRT
Kansas Anti-coercion Law Declared
Void by the United States
Supreme Court.

The supreme court has annu11ed as
unconstitutional the Kansas Anti
Coercion Statute making it unlaw-
full for any individual or corporation
to coerce or influence any person to
enter into an agreement not to join
or remain a member of labor organi-
cation as a condition of such persons
securing or continuing in the employ
ment of such Individual or corpora
ton.
The decision was regarded as of the
first importance in the labor world
and was announced by Justice Pit
ney. Fourteen other states have SINH
lar laws. Strong dissenting opinions
were given by Justices Holmes and
Day. Justice Hughes concurred with
Justice Day, leaving Chief Justice
White and Justices McKenna and
Vandevanter and McReynolds concur
ring with Justice Pitney.
The decision was in the case of
T. b. Coppage. a superintendent of
the st. Louis & San Francisco Rail-
way at Fort Scott, Kas., convicted of
violating the law in threatening A. R.
Hedge, a switchmaA, with discharge
If he did not sign an agreement to
withdraw from the switchmen's union.
The court intimates nothing incon-
sistent with the right of individuals
to join labor unions" said Justice Pit
ney. Nor is the legitimacy of such
organizations questioned SO long as
they conform to the laws of the land
as others are required to do. But the
individual has no inherent right to
join the union and still remain in the
employ of one who is unwilling to en-
ploy union man any more than the
same individual has a right to join
the union without the consent of that
organization.

England Says She Will Seize
All Food Ships Going
to German Ports.
STATE DEPARTMENT POWDERS
Announcement Puts New Color on
Negotiations In Progress Since
Wars Beginning.

Washington, Feb. 3-Ambassador
Page at London cabled the state de-
partment today that the British fleet
has been ordered to treat all cargoes
of grain and flour destined for Ger
many or Austria as conditional con-
traband, subject to seizure and confis-
cation
This step, the ambassador explained,
followed the announcement that the
German government has decreed con-
fiscation of all grain and flour to con-
serve the nations food supply
Since the publication of the German
order. the ambassador here, Count Won
Bernsdorff, personally has assured the
American government that no food
stuffs imported from the United States
or other neutral countries will be sub
ject to seizure and press dispatches
have announced the issuance of a
modifying decree by the German gov
eminent.
Ambassador Page said the British
government has informed him that be-
cause the steamship Wilhelmina, now
bound from New York to Hamburg
with grain and other food, sailed be-
fore the issuance of the German de-
cree, an exception will be made in her
case.
The vessel will be seized, it was
said, but she will be released and her
cargo purchased at invoice price by
the British government. Warning was
given, however, that other shipments
hereafter of like character when des-
tined for Germany directly or indi-
rectly will be seized as well as the
vessels carrying them without COM
pensation being paid
This announcement put an entirely
new complexion on the negotiations
that have been in progress intermit-
tently since the beginning of the war
in regard to the right of neutral
states to ship food supplies to bel
ligerent countries.
