BRITISH ARMOURED
TANKS NOT NEW
INVENTED "a
BY HAL O'FLAHERTY

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
LONDON, Oct. s. (By MaiD-
The armored cars or tanks" as they
are called, which walk through stone
walls and over trenches, are far from
being new idea in warfare. Way
back in 1854, an inventor named
James Cowen, constructed tank"
similar to those now in use on the
Pritish front, except that it was pro
relied by steam instead of gasoline
Cowen described his invention as a
"land ana sea locomotive steam ram
and battery" 1t was capable, SO he
told Lord Palmerston, then premier,
Of effectually annihalating cavalry and
infantry and crushing artillery batter
les. Unfortunately the authorities re-
fl sed to build or help build any of
the machines, much to Governs dismay
The inventor was SO enraged over
the governments refusal Of his plans
that ne issued a pamphlet telling the
ublic Of his wonderful death dealing
machine and the pettiness of the men
IN power at that time The pamphlet,
reprinted in London papers today,
shows Governs juggeinaut, a heavily
;.rmol ed locomotive belehing fire from
guns fore and aft. In bold lettering
over the picture, Cowen says: Sub
mitted to Lord Palmerston and his
colleagues and by them submitted to
g select committee Of the most eX-
perienced veterans Of the age-sup
posed to be % but in reality washed
cut old women and senile Old Tables

For Johnny Bull is a craven ami
nal after his truly Beloved God
Money; and neXer parts with it will
ingly, but freely allows himself to be
robbed of it by his rulers and task
masters while he dolly dreams OF his
Freedom and Liberty; and this Idol Of
Lucre ne has only obtained after wad-
ing ankle deep in blood all over the
world--and this is his greatness
Cowen asserts in note at the bot
tom of his pamphlet that the select
committee Of veterans refused to con-
s;der his plans because the ram could
not be differed by a host of poor re-
ldtions Of the Upper Ten Thousand,
supported by half starved serfs.' He
was undoubtedly venting his spleen on
men who used to consider such an
advanced idea for those days
The refusal stands out in bold con-
trast to the lightning action of the
rresent-day authorities who enthusi-
astically furthered the project for the

window panes from the horns of
cattle; nor is there but little demand
for those whose business it was to
dislodge chimney SCOT. Even the tin
ker who went from place to place
mending pots and pans for housewives,
and who passed them down to sue
ceeding generations, has disappeared.
There is no industry today, however,
except perhaps that of building air
ships, but was represented in some
crude way in the labor of the crafts
men, and If honesty and quality Of
work are considered, our hats must
be off to those men of old.
That Labor day in Europe today is
the LIST day of May is probably the
outcome of this day having been cele-
brated by many of the old craftsmen
before the age of invention. Among
other merrymakers, the chimney
sweeps spent a frolicsome Mayday,
and in some localities still keep up
some of their old customs. In former
times London's chalk-faced chimney
sweeps carried shovels and brushes
as they paraded the streets dressed in
cheap finery and decked with strips
of gilt and colored paper. To them
no Mayday was complete without a
May dance.
The beribboned milkmaids who
danced on the same day also aspired
to have music at their jollification, and
often marched behind cow with gilt
horns in procession. On that day
these rural workers borrowed silver
cups and tankards, which they hung
around their milk-pails, decorated
with ribbons and flowers. Such at
tractive paraphernalia helped them in
collecting coins from their customers,
before whom they danced.
Partly to secure holiday and part
ly to increase their funds, the Friendly
Society of Carriers also celebrated the
list of May with q procession. In coun-
try places the carriers, with their wag-
ons and horses gay with ribbons,
stopped at the numerous public houses
and at homes, At every stop those
within were uader obligation to give
ribbon to heIp. IN the decoration ot the
carts.

BANDIT VILLAS
PRESTIGE GONE
Is No Longer F actor In Mexican
Affairs.
MAYMEAN ARMYWlTHDRAWAL
Joint Commission Will Meet First
Week In September In Some
New England Coast
Town.


Washington. Secretary Lansing
and Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican Am
Observation-Disclosures, tentatively agreed
that the joint commission to discuss
border problems should meet at some
place on the New England coast dur
ing the first week in September.
BrigadierGener Pershing trans
mitted report saying the general
opinion was that Villas prestige is
gone and that he can never again be-
come a serious factor in Mexican af-
fairs"
Supporting as it does General Funs-
toms recent recommendation for the
withdrawal of the expeditionary force
in Mexico, 1t Is believed General
Pershing's report makes it certain that
the American commissioners will
agree promptly to the suggestion of
their Mexican conferees for the early,
recall of the troops. N
Mr.. Arredondo called at the depart
ment to receive formal notification
that the American commissioners had
the Mexican members as soon as the
time and place could be arranged. Both
the embassy and the department were
in communication with Mexico City in
regard to the fixing of date for be-
ginning the sessions.
In his telegram to the War Depart
ment Brigadier-General Pershing re-
ported that Francisco Villa, when last
heard from, was making his way south
into Durango, with a small following.
General Pe1shing said that until
recently Villa had been secluded in the
mountains OF Southern Chihuahua,
where he was driven last April by
American troops.
The dispatch, sent from the expedi-
tionary headquarters at Colonia Dub
Ian, follows:
"My last report regarding Villa at.
tack on Parral is now reported incor.
rect. Villa had only small following.
He avoided Parral and places occu-
pied by Carranza troops. He was max.
ing his way south into Durango. Prob.
ably now hiding in mountains.
Until recently Villa has been hiding
since being driven to mountains of
Southern Chihuahua by our troops last
April. His late attempt to obtain fol-
lowing reported as almost total failure.
Opinion seems general that Villa pres
tige is gone and that he can never
again become serious factor in Mexi,
can affairs"
Army officers here were inclined to
regard the report of Villas loss of
prestige as most important and likely
to have bearing on the question Of
withdrawal of American forces in
Mexico.

LABOR DAY is FOR ALL
It Is Not Intended for Any Class, but
for Americans En-
Masse.

Men Of labor came to. America IN
the Mayflower A printer and car
penter signed the Declaration of In
dependence. George Washington, the
whole world knows, was surveyor at
one time in his life. Lincoln was no
more than day laborer. Andrew
johnson was tailor. William How
ard Taft, after leaving college, was q
newspaper reporter at Sc week.
Roosevelt, it can be fairly said, Was
cowboy once.
A working man, by a strict defini-
ton, is zone who earns his living by
manual labor otherwise, at tasks
employing his hands. Farmers are
working men and clerks in stores and
offices must be, under the meaning Of
the dictionaries.
Actually, of course, anyone who
works is working man. Labor day.
consequently, is not for any class, but
for Americans en- mass.
The following are but few of the
thousands of instances where great
men of today began their successful
careers by working with their hands:

HOLIDAYS
OF CENTURIES AGO
Workmen's Guilds Of England
Had Unique Methods Of
Celebration.
labor Day Parades In This Country
Are No Longer Popular With the
Organized Workers-First One
Held in 1884.

Since 1882, when the Knights of La
Dor resolved to hold their parades on
Labor day, that holiday has been kept
before the public in various localities,
until now almost every state has fol-
lowed the example of Colorado, by
making the first Monday in Septem-
Der legal holiday. The idea of pa
rading on that day has, however, lost
popularity with labor organizations, as
the holiday is celebrated in many
forms of recreation by the several
million strong army of wage earners
who live by the exercise of brain or
Drawn. One day each year is therefore
set apart for workers of all classes to
relinquish labor and pursue the enjoy
ment of their individual bent. When
there is such diversity of sports ev-
cry man demands his choice as to
whether he shall spend the day at
fishing, baseball, motoring or become
an excursionist.
Nothing commends the good old
days as strongly as the accounts Of the
feasts and festivals of the old English
craftsmen, who kept certain holidays
in revelry or ceremonious pageant
even before America was discovered.
In the present century it is almost
impossible to imagine the influence of
some of these old guilds of workmen,
or to comprehend the occupations in
which they were engaged. No longer
is there any demand for horners, who
engaged in making cups, spoons and
