JOHN D. QUESTIONED

NEW YORK. Oct. 19.-The New

why he did not include the Rockefel-
Ter railroads when he stated last year
that I'VE propose to support the off,
GERS (of Colorado Fuel and iron) in
their course, which is in support of
the workingmen themselves and their
right to work for: whom they please
and how they please?"
''Mr. Rockefeller did not talk about

they please and how they pfease;'''. :.

where men were being murdered and

Mr.. Rockefeller went to. Colorado. He
met leading miners, men much like
himself, and talked things over. He
saw light. He now has a plan to
propose, a. republic of labor which
involves the very method Of collective
bargaining which months ago a great
principle bad him oppose: If the
miners like, as we'll as their delegates
seem to do the suggestion Of a private
labor union confined to the employees
OF one company, that Is their affair.
"Only-in any case-it would have
been better for his own record and
for the honor of Colorado If Mr..
Rockefeller had gone on this job two
years ago."

Every fan who loves Mary Fuller

And you will be equally sure that the

charmingly- even by the reignink

SAVING LIVES OF LABOR
PROVES GOOD BUSINESS

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 19.-"To
improve the conditions of workers is
not philanthropy, it is a matter of
good business" said DR.. Roger M.
Griswold in an address in this city.
THE time is past when the cheap
est thing in the world is human life,
as the old saying went" he stated.
yet few of us realize the enorm Gus
losses caused every year by ill health
In workers and by accidents.
IF the time lost on account of pre-
ventable sickness and accidents would
be converted into money and applied
to the payment of the expenses of the
United States government, we could
do away with all forms of taxation
excepting those upon imports" >,

UNCLE SANS ATTORNEY
DEFENDS TAX ON RICH

WASHINGTON, Oct 19.-The gov
eminent has filed q brief with the
United States supreme court in which
the income tax is defended. The gov
eminent says that congress has, in
Its discretion, determined that the
heavier burden can be carried more
easily by the larger income and it is
not for the courts to say that such
classification is outrageous"
THE ordinary system of indirect
taxation upon consumption places up
on the poor person a disproportionate
share of the burden of the government
support. says the brief.

Of the associated charities report that
many of the demands made upon them
are not made by the sso-called down,

One official said: ~
Zone of the greatest problems is
with those families that, through no
fault of their own, cannot make both
ends meet. This is because the wages
paid for certain labor is too small.
The daily wage earner,,- the street
sweeper. for example. finds ,$1.50 too
small to maintain! a family to begin
WITH. and then there are frequent lay
offs because of the weather. The re-
suit of this condition Is that children

"PrO" Wielders of
Sponge are Next

Patrons OF American rings may soon
see nobby innovation from Europe,
in the shape OF white clad. profession
al seconds. For years American box
ers have complained because they
were compelled to submit to the min
istrations OF inexperienced seconds.
and II Is asserted that many fight
has been lost because the wielders of
the sponge and towel did not under
stand how TO quickly revive a fighter,
somewhat dazed and exhausted by
damaging blow.
Every fight OF Importance in Europe
sees professional seconds at work.
They are uniformed in white. and the
basins and implements they use are
OF spotless enamel. They are thor
ough masters OF the art OF massage,
and by few judicious slaps and
pokes, can do wonders in freshening
up a battered protege. Then the
whole idea seems to have an encourag-
ing psychological effect upon the bs>-
ers. Eastern promoters and managers
are giving the European idea serious
consideration and no little favor.
