Joseph = TOIISSL'
The above application was received
today by Chas. ]. Boyd, general SUI
perintendent of the Illinois Free En-
ployment Office, Chicago.
Much interest has been centered in
finding employment for men of adj
Vanced years, but who ever thought
of turning them into girls before to
solve the problem of finding suff1-
cient help for domestic and general
homework.
Mr.. Forrest claims that he is a
competent hOuseworker in all
branches of domestic service and ap-
plies for any position except that
of a Iaundress. He is willing to
work in a steady position for S. or
Sc a week providing he does not have
to do the laundry work. Will there
be any difficulty in finding position,
if, as he says, he is ready to put on
skirts and become a girl? This is a
question to which Mr.. Boyd is anX-
iously waiting an answer. If you
wish Mr.. Forests services, please let
the Employment Office know at once.
There are unlimited openings for
girls for general homework for
which there is no labor supply.
Girls, will you permit the men to
take your places? If not, please call
Immediately on Mr.. Boyd for one of
the places which he has to offer.

THE CHILD LABOR BILL.

Among those who take exception to the claim that there is no fraud or joker in the federal child labor bill is General Lovejoy of the national child labor committee who declares that the law was carefully drawn and thor oughly considered by congress, there having been no tanning through of the measure since it had been con sidered for three years.
 There is no denial of the time the bill has been before congress and it is thoroughly understood that it was the purpose of the solid south to de- feat it or to leave it in the pigeon hole at this session the same as 1t had been before. There are, in fact, req sons which will cause the whole coun- try to hope that there are no loop holes in the bill which will permit it's evasion, apd none will be more em- phatic on this point than those who have called attention to the 30 day hause as a probable trouble maker, or it is fully recognized that the leg slaition is greatly needed for the well arc of the children in those states which have not seen the need of look ng after their own problems.
 MT. Lovejoy undoubtedly has con- ldence in the measure as passed, es- Jecially since as he says it was framed " the best constitutional lawyers in he country. It certainly is to be ioped that there is no joker in the ill for no one would deplore such a ondition more than the republicans rho have always stood for improved hild labor laws as the laws on the tatute books of the republican states ully disclose.

the policy of construction oil burning ships. Only oil burning ships can de- velop and maintain the high speeds required in modern war, and without them no navy can be even second class. The secretary of the interior actively supported this surrender of national safety to private greed. The secretary of the navy and the attor- ney general opposed 1t. Wilson re nlained neutral and did nothing.
 Because Wilson refused to take sides, or took the wrong side, the question whether the people or the in terests shall win or lose in the Shields and Myers waterpower bills and the PheIan oil bill is still unsettled. These bills are still before congress, and will pass or fail at the coming session. The public waterpowers and the efficiency of the navy are at stake. There can be no compromise between the men who would grab the public resources for private profit, and those who would conserve them for the use of all the people. Either the interests will get them or the people will keep them. There is no middle ground.
 To sum up, as in many other mat ters the promise made was not per formed. Instead of progress in con- serving our resources. the last two years have seen a bitter and often 8 losing fight to hold what we had Wilson talked well, began to act well, and then, yielding to the political pressure of the special interests, went back on conservation.
 Sincerely yours,
 CLIFFORD PINCHOT.

and Austria have been this country s sources of supply for industrial uses and largely for fertilizer purposes, and they have been closed by the war.
 Therefore if it is true. as reported, that there have been discovered in Cuba rich deposits of potash containing millions of tons. which is 25 per cent. pure, it means much both to that is land and to this country for it assures an unlimited supply of @ product that is in constant demand and which will break the monopoly which the central nations of Europe have held in this respect. - ..-
 This find can therefore be expected to cause much rejoicing in this part of the world since it means 8 greater independence from Europe and fur nishes the opportunity for the devel- op1nent of the natural resources which are available and only awaiting utili- zation.
