KICKED
ON IRON STRUCTURE

When B. A. Kennepohl, former pres.
ident of the board of works under the
Zimmerman administration. was
member Of the city council in 1894.
he protested against the building of
the present Main street bridge, which
was recently condemned by the city.
In an article he contributed to the
Palladium on July 4, 1894, he expressed
his views on the construction of a
bridge over the Whitewater and urged
that an iron structure would be i'm
practical and that the life of the bridge
would be short. He insisted that the
cost of upkeep of an iron structure
would be so great that the bridge
would be neglected and would go to
ruin. At that time. concrete structures
were not being built. but Mr.. Kenne-
pohl urged the county to build stone
bridge, much on the order OF the pres
ent concrete bridges.
He expressed his opinion in 1894 In
the following words: The county
should put in good substantial stone
arches at Main street and South E
street. You can fill up to the top of
the bank if you like, and If the stone
work is good you will have no bridge
trouble to contend with; no painting
to be done, no new floors to be laid,
either. And you can probably build
two for what the Main street bridge
will cost"

! this country over the Germans sub
marine policy and the destruction of
the Lusitania. but the rapid settle
ment of the trouble failed to substan-
tlate this view. The arms workers in
new england were given shorter
work day without decrease in paw.
and they went back to work in less
than a week. The men in some of the
Dig plants refused to walk out at all.
The Oil workers strike at Bayonne
was a more serious matter Those
who were determined to connect the
strike with the war, said the Ger
mans were behind the movement, be-
cause much crude oil was being ex-
ported to the allies, and also huge
Quantities of gasoline for the propul-
sion of the thousands of automobiles
and auto trucks used in the field, for
the transportation of ammunition, food
supplies and the wounded This, how
ever was a rather far-stretched view
of the matter.
The longshoremen's strike in New
York, at the beginning. had many an
pearances of being instigated by Ger
man agents. The men had received
an Increase in pay not long before.
The strike would have tied up all ship
ping, and therefore, cut off the NUM-
tons and other supplies that the al
lies are getting from this country
However, the quick end of the move
ment contradicted that ASSUMPTION,
Only a small part of the longshore
men actually quit work, and those
who walked out returned to their posts
after few days.

FAIRGROUNDS CLOSE
FOR LACK OF FUNDS

All the childrens Fairgrounds and
summer schools in the city, with the
exception of the Fairgrounds closed TO-
day. and one of the most successful
season ever held came to an end.
It was the wish of those interested
in the summer schools to keep them
open for a longer period, but lack Of
funds made this impossible.
It is estimated that between two
and three hundred youngsters receiv-
ed daily instructions during the last
ten weeks, that will prove very bene-
fetal to them in the future, and it is
anticipated that next year there will
be sufficient money on had to continue
the summer term for a longer period.

NEW YORK, Aug 13-In these trou-
blous days when the world war in
Europe is involving half the earth
and it's people, the public. surfeited
with war is apt to blame everything
on the titanic struggle.
During the last few weeks of labor
unrest, when strike threatened to tie
up all the vast munitions plants at
Bridgeport, Conn, when three men
were shot down and many others in
jured in oil strik riots at Bayonne,
N. j., and when a longshoremen's
strike threatened to tie up all the ship
ping of New York, the question ma
turally arose all over the United
States: Are the labor troubles a re-
suit of war?
AS soon as the first munition work
ers walked out of the arms and mu-
milton plants at Bridgeport, it was as
serted that the strikers we're insti-
gated by agents of the German gov
eminent. But the ease and rapidity
with which the trouble was settled
in New England made this doubtful.
Explode War Theory.
The same was said in regard to
the oil strike at Bayonne, but again
the difficulty was speedily adjusted,
which made it doubtful that the men
were actuated by any motive other
than that which usually is behind
labor strike.
When the New York longshoremen
threatened to order general walk
out, the hue went up Immediately that
they were in the pay of Germany, but
this disaffection was settled before
more than a fraction of the freight

all went back to work. - -~asv ,gs~ey r.
In Bridgeport there was some
ground for suspecting that the men
were acting on the suggestion of Ger
man agents. That strike, which, if it
had got into full sway would have
tied up the Remington and other large
arms plants of New England, would
have seriously crippled the munitions
industry of the United States 1t is
well known that these plants furnish
arms and ammunition to the allies in
the European war.
Make War Munitions.
They manufacture shrapnel shells
empty and loaded; rifles, pistols am
munition for them, and many other
kinds Of munitions of war. Since the
beginning of the great conflict the
Germans have complained bitterly
that this country was violating neu-
trality by selling arms and ammuni-
ton to the allies. The reply has been
that this country is selling it's prod
ucts, arms and ammunition as we'll as
clothing and food, to the open markets
of the world, and that Germany is just
as welcome to buy munition here as
are England, France and Prussia. How
ever, the Germans have Il unable
to buy, because their mel It marine
has been entirely destroyed informed
or bottled up, and they are unable to
transport munitions or anything else

A few alarmists in this country

mal-nutrition, condition which pre-
