event Of interest to the working peo-
pie transpired in Congress during its
first weeks work
Resolutions to print 100000 copies
Of the final report Of the Commission
on Industrial Relations were introduce
ed in both the Senate and the House
of Representatives and referred to the
Committee on Printing in each house,
The committee assignments were
not completed until yesterday. It will
be number of days before the COM
mittees do much beyond perfecting
their organization, and considerable
time will elapse before the commits
tees act upon important legislative
matters. The resolution to print 200,-
900 copies of the Industrial Relations
Commissions report is an important
legislative matter. The employers
don't want it widely distributed.
Their agents are bound to get busy
in more ways than one to scuttle any
further publicity of the findings Of the
Commission.
There is also quite group Of Sena-
tors and Representatives who will
surely put up a fight against a wide
distribution of the report. It is too
replete with facts that have hitherto
been hidden from the workers.
Government and the Working People
Take, for instance, the relation OF
the Government to the working peo-
pie. +
How many of US workers have not
listened spellbound, and even with
good bit Of pride, to, the campaign
declaration that the Government of
the United States is a Government of
the people, by the people, for the
people.
We have said to ourselves, Why,
that makes it all right. The workers
constitute an overwhelming proper
ton of the people. Therefore, it log
ica1ly follows that the Government Of
the United States is a government Of
the working people, by the working
people. for the working people.
: OF course, the Government seemed
to be pretty far away down there at
Washington in all of those magnifi-
cent law making, law administering,
and law-executing factories. Never;
theless it did seem nice to realize that
we had a Government all our own.
Then came the Industrial Relations
Commission. 4
The Commission was chartered,
among other things, to look into the
underlying causes Of Industrial nm
rest. Not just the causes Of Industrial
unrest. Not the superficial causes.
But the deep down underlying causes.
Workers supsieious Of Government.
The Commission Soon found out
that the workers had a general con-
viction that the machinery Of Govern
ment. municipal. State, and Federal.
was against them. = % =

The Dermott High School football
team motored over to Monticello Satur-
day to meet the Agges on the gridiron
but net with poor success, as the Ag
gies were all large men and the Der

enormous forward rush, therefore
losing the game. J. t. Dishongh of
the Aggies made seven touchdowns.
He was the star of that team. Capt.

no permanent system of agriculture in
this county until we get rid of the ticks.
