STOP WATCH JOKER. :.
BLOCKED ! BY SENATE
Advocates Of Taylor System
Suffer Two Defeats In Con-
sidering Army Bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-While
the senate was considering the army
appropriations bill, last week, stop
watch and Taylor system advocates
suffered two defeats. Their first re-
verse came when the senate rejected
a recommendation by it's committee
on military affairs that the senate
non-concur in the. anti-stop watch
section, inserted by the house. The
committee was defeated by q vote Of
So to Is.
Senator La Toilette raised a warn
that when the bill went to conference
branches of. congress, that the con-
ferees could re-establish the stop
watch and Taylor systems with the
point. In that event opponents of
these systems in both the house, and
the senate would be helpless. for
under the rules the conferees: report
is not subject to amendment and must
be voted on as a whole. Senator La
Toilette said:
I'VE will not permit to be put into
this bill a line, 4 word, or syllable
that will give the conterees the op-
portunity to work out some legislation
that will be framed up by six men
and shall come in here in the confer
ence report in a form that has to be
accepted by the senate"
Senators MARITIME Of New Jersey
and Reed Of Missouri also combatted
the. Gallinger amendment. The. for
mer declared that "a process that
shall tend to wear out human lives is
not good economy for a nation to pur-
sue." He quoted General Croker,
chief Of ordinance, United States
army, and a stop watch advocate, to
prove the sweating" features of these
systems. General Crozier said:
THE question remains to be an
swered how the process. at tho Water
town arsenal differs in kind from the
class known as speeding up or sweat
shop or slave driving processes, SO.
called. take it that the essential
difference lies in the character of the
stimulation which is applied to In
crease the output"
Senator Gallinger became pessi-
mistic at the onslaught against his
amendment and acknowledged he did
not expect it to pass. Unconsoiously
the New Hampshire lawmaker pre-
sented this exaggerated compliment.
to his colleagues:
II am not rash enough to believe
that congress has yet reached the
point where it will refuse any de-
