THE action of the u. S. Steel
Corporation in refusing to cut the
wages of its employees is COM
mandatory. The Duluth News
Tribune in editorially remaking on
the wage attitude of the corporation
says:
To do this as we'll as to uphold
its other charges, the corporation
is drawing on its surplus. 1t has
piled up ore mined at the top wage
in such piles that it has now nearly
a years reserve. 1t could have
made millions by mining this at a
low wage. 1t could cut prices and
ruin its competitors. 1t could do
all those things, trust" is popu-
larly supposed to do. Instead it
does none of them, but bears its
own load, takes its losses and shares
the general burden of all industry
and of the workers.

October gave unanimous approval
to carefully drawn measure for
the establishment of statewide
system of teachers pensions. This
bill will be submitted to the next
Legislature, and the teachers urge
that Minnesota follow the example
of round dozen of the States. in
Guiding Wisconsin and North
Dakota, which have already estab-
lished such a system,
The plan proposed is conserv-
alive one. The income from which
annuities are to be paid to teach
ers who have given twenty years or
more of service, is to come prin-
cipally from two sources-the con-
tributions of the teachers them
selves and a one-tenth mill tax
imposed by the State.
Those now teaching may join or
not as they please, but all those
taking service after September l,
1915, must become members. The
contribution of each member
ranges from FIVE dollars annually
for the first five years of service to
twenty-five dollars for the years
from the twentieth to the twenty
fifth. Teachers who are already
benefciaries of other such funds
would not be permitted to join.
Several of the larger cities have a
teachers fund of their own.
Equitable provision Is made where
by those joining may pay up ar
rearages for past years of service,
if they desire to do so.

THE Minneapolis Journal comes
to the aid of the state university,
the biggest graft existing in the
state. Thousands upon thousands
of dollars have been expended by
this costly institution for buildings
until the campus is filled with
them. These buildings are gigan-
tic in size. altogether too large for
the needs of the institution.
Professors by the score at big
salaries have been engaged, many
of whom appear at functions to
shoot off their mouths. Money
has been spent with lavish hands
and the end is not yet. The rea-
son the Union advises the legisla-
ture to knife the appropriations
is because it desires to see no large
appropriations or any new build

AUTOMOBILE NEW TO WARFARE
Armored Motor Car Proves Extremely
Useful.

Useful.
Although an engine new to warfare,
the armored motor car has proved ex
tremely useful, especially for outpost
and scouting duty. Fast, silent and
mobile, it covers a vast amount of
ground on the splendid roads that
crisscross the field of war in western
Europe. Most of the cars are incased
in a light frame of tough steel plate
that ranges in thickness from three
sixteenths of an inch to a quarter of
an inch, and that is impervious to rifle
and machine gun fire. All the vulner-
able parts of the motor such as the
radiator and steering gear, and in
some of the newest cars the wheels
are protected by the steel covering.
The wheels, both wood and wire, are
said to withstand the toughest sort of
usage. Accidents to the tires are
much less common than any one
would expect The cars carry light
armament-one or two machine guns
so mounted that they can be swung
through a complete circle-and large
supply of ammunition. The crew
which may number from four to eight
or more men, are armed with rifles
and revolvers. Some of the cars have
a steel superstructure that rises from
the chassis frame high enough to en-
able the crew to stand upright, anc
that is capped with a domed roof, from
which bullets andshrapnel usually fly
off at a sharp angle without even dent
ing the steel=Youth's Companion.
