NEVER LEARNED THE TRUTH
pented of Their Condemnation If
They Had but Known.

Youth and presumably Innocence
were waiting at a French goods coun-
ter while the clerk wrapped up jars of
pink stuff which they didn't need.
Each was audacious in the matter of
short skirts, and both were chewing
gum.
On stool at the same counter sat
another customer, wCman Just facing
the agony line which separates beauty
from vandal Age. And Youth and In
nocence felt called on to dissect her
They banded impressions as to the
womans looks. and giggled over her
desperate attempts to retain her COM
pleXion and age. Their sharp young
eyes took in the nobby dress that was
almost shabby, and their sharp young
voices would have stabbed her to the
quick except that she seemed TO be
walled in by some concentrated
thought that clustered her from their
blows
Il betshees bad"
The gum-stuck verdict came from
Innocence, whose lawful place at that
minute should have been in some
eighth grade schoolroom.
"Uccorse. Anybodykn tell that.
Whodjespose would lookatarole NUT
like herr"
Then Youth and Innocence, without
explaining how they came to be so
sordidly enlightened at their callow
years, suddenly switched interest to
their wrapped-up stuff, and That
was all there was to it.
Except that the woman, having
bought and paid for her own little box
of something, got up and hurried to the
store entrance. where another woman
stopped to congratulate her on some
appointment obtained by her son:
Isn't it splendid! Papa and are
so proud of him-Tm especially glad

pressed ever since his last attack

Held Up by Board

Washington, Nov. 20.-Tariffs filed
by railroads in official southern and
western classification territories, pro-
posing increased demurrage charges
to check the freight car shortage,
were suspended by the Interstate
Commerce, commission today until
March 81, next
The present demurrage charge, oil

after first time allowance. Following
the general complaint OF acute short
age of equipment in all sections of the
country, the railroads began filing tar
ifs providing for increased charges
for demurrage to facilitate the release
Of cars by shippers. The shippers
protested, as they did on a previous
occasion, when an increased demur-
rage charge was proposed. The COM
mission has now suspended the new
rates pending further investigation.
The proposed tariffs would provide,
after the usual free time allowance,
charges of 81 for the first day or frac-
tion, So for the second day, 81 for
the third day and $5 for the fourth

READY FOR CONSEQUENCES

Baltimore, Md, Nov 20,-Thc or
ganized labor forces OF the country
today avowed extreme hostility to the
writ OF Injunction as means of stop
ping strike. First, resolution was
adopted unanimously at the morning
session of the convention OF the
American Federation OF Labor, urging
organized labor everywhere to make
the injunction question "the para
mount issue in all OF their future po-
litical activities
A more radical step was taken at
the afternoon session when the COM
mittee on the executive councils re-
port took up that feature OF the re-
port dealing with the decision OF the
Massachusetts supreme court classify
ing labor as property
Must Be Disregarded.
The committee submitted and the
convention unanimously adopted
recommendation that any injunction
dealing with the relationship Of en-
ployer and employe, and based on
the dictum that labor is property, be
disregarded, let the consequences be
what they may
The committees report follows:
1T seems to be settled purpose Of
interests antagonstic to the freedom
of men and women who labor to per-
suade. and then use the Judiciary and
misconstrue constitutional guaran-
tees and thereby nullify legislative en-
actments, so as to leave but one
remedy; and we, therefore, recon-
mend that any injunction dealing
with the relationship Of employer and
employe and based on the dictum
labor is property be wholly and abb
solutely regarded as usurpation and
disregarded; let the consequence be
what they may.
Usurpation and Tyranny.
Such decisions as the one rcnd-
cred by the supreme court OF the

in class interests; il is usurpation
and tyranny. Freedom came to man
because he believed that resistance to

came, so it must be maintained.
Kings could be and were disobeyed
and sometimes deposed In cases OF
this kind, judges must be disobeyed
and should be impeachcd."
The executive councils report, the
adoption OF which the committee
recommended, the convention con-
curing. dealt at length with the

courts and saying there seemed to be
no remedy. The council asked to be
empowered to continue its aid to the
