WHAT'S IN A NEUTRAL" NAME
Bethlehem of Judea and Bethlehem of
Pennsylvania Contrasted.

What's in name-in neutral
country? For months the columns of
the newspapers have been filled with in
formation that the warning nations of
the world are placing their orders for
war munitions in this country. Not long
since the public prints told us that one
billion dollars worth of war munitions,
the lions share, are being filled by the
great Bethlehem steel works.
In Bethlehem of Judea-the old tale
still is read and told in the home and in
the pulpit; it is the tale of love and hope
and promise and peace. But two thou
sand years of blood and wrong divide
civilization from Calvary. 1t was at
Golgotha that the star which led the
three paled in the gloom of the cruci-
fixion. Still we sing and dream of Beth
lehem and of the One who was born
there in a lowly manger, the One who
came to preach peace, love and good will
toward men.
There is new Bethlehem toward
which the eyes of men turn in these
days One living in the new Bethlehem,
as the head of great corporation, the
other day received an order for-what? =?
From over seas came the call, from the
warrior lands: "Ho Bethlehem, send
us another sixteen million one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars worth of can
non and ammunition" What's in name
these days ?-Bricklayer and Mason.

OHIO UNIONISTS OPPOSE
PRIVATE COMPENSATION
STATE COMMISSIONER RULES IN
FAVOR OF CORPORATIONS.
State Federation of Labor Officials Have
Employed Counsel to Carry the
Ruling to Supreme Court.

State Insurance Commissioner Taggart
of Ohio has ruled that liability insur-
ance companies have legal right to
write workmen's compensation in COM
petition with the state compensation
fund.
The decision is a victory for the pri-
vate insurance companies in their figpl
with the state industrial commission an
the Ohio State Federation of Labor,
which have insisted that the Ohio law
barred all private insurance companies.
Under the decision the private COM
panies will furnish employers with the
bond they are required to post with the
state industrial commission as guar
antee that he will pay the states sched-
ule of awards. Then the insurance COM
pany, for a certain amount, assumes the
employers risks. The industrial commits
sion and the unionists point out that un-
der these circumstances injured workers
will not receive the prompt attention
given them by the state insurance fund
aud the purposes OF the compensation
law are destroyed.
President Vol and Secretary Treasurer
Donncll yof the Ohio State Federation of
Labor have employed counsel and will
carry Insurance Commissioner Taggart's
decision To the courts. IL is possible
amendment covering the question.
Thomas J. Duffy, sN-rrcsident of the
National Brotherhood OF Operative Pot
ters, who is a member of the state in
dustrial commission, related this incident
to show the methods employed by the
private companies;
"A Niles man was killed and under the
state compensation law. his widow WAS
entitled TO 5000 The employer had
put up the necessary bond with the
state commission and was having a lia-
bility insurance company carry his COM
pen-ation for him.
There was only one thing for the in
-urauce company TO DO under the law;
PAY the widow the $1,000
"1hc commission discovered. however.
that agents of the insurance company
had talked the widow into '-ottliug' for
y 500. The commission promptly forced
the company 10 pay her $4,000

U. S. RESCUE CAR IN COLORADO
Denver Man in Charge of Crew Operating
in Northern Coal Field.

One OF the eight "rcscue cars" sent
by the United States thruout the coun-
try to teach the conservation of human
life in the various coal fields, is now
operating in northern Colorado under the
supervision Of J. II. East, a graduate OF
the Colorado School of Mines and n res
ident of Denver.
The 'rescue car" has a crew engaged
in public service that measures its
activities in terms of human lives saved.
The United States bureau of rescue work
is the result of the American Safety
First" campaign launched and fostered
by the late DR.. j. A. Holmes, n Colorado
man.
The rescue bureau is an infant among
government bureaus, but its results place
it with the oldest. The bureau is
charged with making diligent investiga-
tio63pf the methods of mining, especially
in relation to the safety of miners, and
the appliances best adapted to prevent
accidents.
The bureau of mines has made the
cost of human life higher and the cost
of coal in the measure of mortality
smaller.

RISLEY TO FORCE GOVERNOR
TO A SHOWDOWN IN FIGHT
PRINTING COMMISSIONER IS sUS-
PENDED FROM OFFICE 10 DAYS.
Defies Governor and Refuses to Accept
His Scheme to Name Non-Union
Shop Proprietor For Place.

Governor Carlson suspended state
Printing Commissioner Harry w. Risley
from office Monday on charge of
breach of discipline and misconduct"
These charges grew out OF Risley's re-
fusal to'resign at request of the governor
so that he could appoint his chum,
Rollie w Bradford, proprietor Of a nom
union print shop.
The governors letter to Risley was as
follows:
This is to advise you that in my
Judgment you have been guilty Of mis-
conduct and breach of discipline in the
conduct of your department and that it
is for the best interests OF the depart
ment that YOU be suspended without pay
for period of ten days. You are,
therefore notified that | do hereby sus-
pend you for period of ten days with
out pay"
According to Risley, the governors
action follows the delivery at the state
house on Saturday of two boxes of
printed matter from the Boulder News
and the filing with the state industrial
commission of bills for work done by
the Bradford Publishing company This
work was let without the knowledge of
Risley, and contrary to the law, which
entitled the stationery company which
holds the state printing contract 10 the
work
Tuesday morning Risley defied the
governor to further force the issue and
showed up at his office in the state
house as usual. The commissioner of
printing is under civil service and will
insist upon his right to hold the Job.
1t is expected that the courts will en-
join the governor from taking advant-
age of the new law to kill effective civil
service in Colorado. The result it is
thought will be to prevent the governor
from trying to oust any more heads of
departments so that he can fill their
places with friends to whom he owes
political debts
The governor has announced he will
file charges against Risley. The latter
has replied that he will demand the mat
ter be heard by the old civil service
commission. Should the governor at
tempt to force the new civil service COM
mission to hear the matter, Risley will
deny this new body's jurisdiction and
will fight the matter in the courts.
