JANE WHITAKER'S STORIES
Jane Whitaker's stories are moving
and some Of them heaTtrending.
They condemn the social order that
allows such conditions to exist, the
women who spurn the exploited out
cast. the men who make Outcasts,
the men who demand virtue from
women and make dirty prOdigates OF
themselves. They condemn the men
who assume that the law-making
power belongs to them and deny the
equal rights of women to participate
in government. They condemn the
Judges who sit upon the bench and
do nothing but fine women who are
victims of vicious men and corrupt
society.
They suggest no remedy. But that
is obvious. L is equality among men
and women Equality of opportunity.
Equality of wages for the same work.
Equality in the business of govern
ment that affects all alike regardless
of sex. It is equality in economic
conditions. 1t is the abolition of pO-
verify. It is the abolition of degrad-
ing wealth. 1t is also the recOgni-
ton of the moral law, Of the exist
enCe of a law-maker whose penalties
are visited upon all viOlatOrs alike. 1t
calls upon all to find out the moral
law and obey it.
The moving tales are but the Vi
sioning to us of the results Of the viO-
Iation of the moral law both mdi-
vidua. and social. They emphasize
the great Importance Of the violation
OF the moral law in social conditions
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-05-31

They condemn utterly the ignoring
of morals in the laws and institu-
tiOns that exist among us.
They call loudly upon each one OF
us to find out what is right and what
is just in individual and in social life
and to follow the right regardless OF
its results to ourselves. Whatever
comes to us from following the right
cannot be eviI-George v. Wells.

SURPRISE TO LAWYERS

atlanta Ga NAY 14-The decision of
the United States circuit court of ap-
peaIs setting aside Judge Emory
Speer's decision of the muffin million
airs James NJ Smith estate, which de-
cision was rendered yesterday came as
complete surprise to all the lawyers
in the case. Even the lawyers repre-
senting the temporary. administrators
appointed by the ordinary of Ogle-
thorpe county who petitioned for Judge
Speer's receivership to be set aside,
were not hopeful of securing a decis-
ion favorable to their side of the case.
Atlanta newspapers interpreting the
general opinion of the lawyers in the
case as fairly certain index to what
the decision would be, went SO far as
to publish stories saying it was be-
lieved the court of appeals would up
held Judge Speer in taking jurisdiction
over the famous estate.
Upsetting all the advance dope" of
the lawyers newspapers ana OtnerS,
the court of appeals issued a superce-
IDEAS of Judge Speer's receivership and
ordered the receivers appointed by
Judge Speers to turn over the estate
to the temporary administrators ap-
pointed by the. ordinary of Oglethorpe
county.
The effect of this order was to re-
move the estate from the jurisdiction
of the United States district court for
the southern district of Georgia, over
which Judge Speer presides, and re-
store it to the jurisdiction of the Geor-
gia courts where the litigation origi-
mated.
The order Of the court of appeals is
effective pending a full hearing Of the
case at the regular term of the court

METHODIST define TO
PREFER UNION LABOR

Saratoga Springs, n. Y, May l4.-By
a vote of 447 to ESQ the Methodist gen
eral conference today eliminated that
part of the report of the commission
on social service which declared that
a preference should be given union la
Dor in all matters affecting employ
ment ain so far as its methods are
just, and in so far as the rights Of I'M
organized men are not infringed upon.
The paragraph in the commissioner
report relating to trades unions, as
amended by the conference, reads:
"a sound principle to govern the
church as an employer of labor would
appear to be that in recognition of the
price being paid by organized labor
to improve conditions of industry, on
account of its general contribution to
the community welfare, every possible
endeavor be made to work with it, in
so far as its methods are just and in
so far as the rights of unorganized men
are not infringed upon.
The clause intended to commit the
conference to a preference for union Ia
Dor was stricken cut after the most
protracted and animated debate of the
conference.
Mrs Hilda M. Nasmyth, superintend-
ent Of the Amanda Smith home, an in
stitution for negro girls at Little Rock,
Ark, was one of the speakers in oppo-
sition to the clause She objected to
recognition of unions on the grounds
that in the southern states negro me-
chanics were refused admission to the
unions and were denied opportunity to
work at their crafts.
