a railroad not Immediately connect
ed with the train service. They will
not get any shorter hours or any
more pay under this law, and yet
they contribute over two thirds of
the railroads working force and, as
rule, they get the poorest pay,
too. Do you think the public will
be in the mood to pay the bill for
an increase in pay for these folks
after they begin to feel the effects
Of this new law?
Anyway, l do not think that this
House ought to legislate under any
compsluion. The trainmen served
notice that we had to legislate the
way they told us, and do IL mighty
quick. or we should see the whole
country paralyzed.

leaders started the blaze going with

Not a Square Deal
For Farmers

Friday against the so-called eight
hour law for the railroads. AS
matter of fact, it is not an eight
hour law at all This law does not
curtail the trainmen's working by
single minute. If an engineer has
been receiving So for working 10
hours a day. the passage of this bill
will raise his pay to 1925: but II
will not shorten his workday even
the tenth part of a second This is
no more like the true eight-hour
principle than chalk is like cheese.
The reason why people call this
an eight hour law is because 1t
says that in the case of railroad
trainmen they shall get their days
pay for the first eight hours work,
and all the rest is to beconsdered
overtime.

the eight-hour day in this country.
l mean the real eight hour day, the
eight hour work day. | voted for
the law which provides an eight
hour day for everyone who works
on a Government contract. spoke
and voted in behalf of an eight hour
day for every woman employed in
city of Washington. But those were
real eight hour work days for which
spoke and voted. Those eight
hour laws permit no overtime They
provide for an eight hour day and
not minute. except in the case of
of real emergency.
Perhaps the train men are under
paid. If so. they ought to have sub
mitted their whole demand to inn
partial arbitration. They would
not do It. They said-and Presi-
dent Wilson backed them up-"No:
you must begin by granting us two
thirds Of our demand and then we
viii arbtrate the rest" Now, thst
does not seem to me to be a square
deal for the railroads and the trav-
cling public and the farmers, who
have their grain and produce to

The invitation sent Charles T.. Hughes,
Republican candidate for President to take
part in the Fourth of July celebration at
Independence Square was issued by Mayor
Smith with the understanding that Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson had definitely de-
clned previous invitation to visit the
city. The Mayor today declared that there
was nothing political In his move and that
he and Councils Committee would be very
glad, indeed, to have both candidates at the
celebration
In discussing the situation Mayor Smith
today expressed the desire that both gentle-
men should be present and explained that
his invitation to the Republican nominee
was not meant as slap at the President
and had no political significance. ~ Ger.

Wilson would not find II possible to be

Colonel Falters in His
Steps, Puts Hand on Side

NEW YORK, June 14.--Colonel Roose-

this morning when he went to the 'pier to
meet his son. Kermit. and the latter's wife,
who arrived from Colon, Panama, on the
transport Fitzpatrick, now in use as a pas
senger steamship.
His old smile seemed to have entirely
vanished. He walked about the pier with
halting steps and frequently placed his hand
on his left side, as though he was in pain.
His face twitched rervously. He smiled
wanly at his son and daughter-ln-law when
he caught sight of them and walked slowly
up the gangplank to meet them.
The Colonel was accompanied to the pier
by Mrs. Roosevelt. Mrs Richard Derby, his
daughter; DR.. Derby, and Archy Roosevelt.

The Colonel expects later in the day to

Progressive Convention, and Harold l..
lckes, national committeeman from Illinois.

About half an hour after the boat docked.
a woman member of the Roosevelt party
went to a telephone and called up doctor.
The Colonel. she said was telling badly,
had stitch in his side and needed
treatment
MY fathers Illness is~of no consequences
whatever He will keep his appointments
today" said Mrs. Richard Derby.
"He has been troubled with n cough and
may have strained a muscle that caused him
to put his hand to his side. That is ALL"
The Colonel was at the Derby home when
Mrs. Derby made this statement He was
due to leave within a short time for his
office downtown.
Secretary McGrath said that Colonel
Roosevelt had strained a nerve during n
fit of coughing this morning and had de-
cided to remain in town tonight and have
an X-ray examination.

REQUIRES NERVES OF STEEL
Necessary Quality for the Man Who
Takes Motion Pictures
Of the War.

When it comes to peril and hair
raising experiences only the man
actually on the firing line has any
thing on the war motion picture OPP
orator, particularly when he is en-
gagged, as many of those who repre-
sent England now are, on reconnoi-
tering work. - At first these operators
were only used as an experiment, but
they have since proved Of great prac-
tical value.
The motion picture man who vol
unteers for this work accomplishes
one of the most difficult and daring
tasks possible that can be imagined.
He must be a master of his profess
sion, have nerves Of steel and be will
ing to take great rTsks. More often
than not he is obliged to fly at a low
altitude, otherwise his pictures would
be valueless.
Many men who have gone out on
these perilous expeditions have
never returned. AS a precaution
against the films falling into the
hands of the enemy, the operators
are provided with a special apparatus
which, should they be compelled to
descend in the enemy's lines, enables
them instantly to destroy their rec
ords.
These war films show the expert
enced observer a great deal of what
is going on behind tie enemy's lines.
The enemy trenches are clearly vis-
ible, smoke from bursting shells indi-
Gates the accuracy of the French
artillery fire, and tiny dots moving
across the horizon are recognized as
troops, conveys or guns. 1t is even
possible to discern men digging
trenches or placing big guns in posi-
ton. The cinema men have often
brought back excellent pictures
taken from waterplanes showing the
movements of ships and the track

are not asleep. If you seek them they
do not hide. If you blunder they do
not scold. If you are ignorant they
do not laugh.

Towards the close Of the Irish re-
volt band of about two hundred reb-
cred it beneath their dignity to give
themselves up to the two policemen
who, at that moment, were the only
representatives of law and order near.
Their leader accordingly telephoned to
the nearest barracks and asked that
a more imposing force should be sent
to take the rebels in charge. Being
only too willing to oblige, the officer
sent a considerable detachment, and
the insurgents were thus able to march
to their place of detention with un-
ruffied dignity between the ranks OF
