opportunity"
These are his very words. And
again at Princeton he said.
"You know what the usual stan
dard of the employee is in our
day. He gives as little as he may
for his wages. The labor of Amer
lea is fast becoming Improbable
under its present regulation by
those who have determined to re-
duce ii to minimum"
There speaks the real Woodrow
Wilson-Southern aristocrat and
dilettante statesman, when he was
not running for office.
Mr.. Hughes has met the question
Of the threatened strike fairly and
squarely-just as he has met every
question of public policy-with0ut
resorting to rhetoric or pretty
without sidestepping or
lodging. He would have averted
the threatened strike by an appeal
to public opinion and by the APP
pointment of an arbitration tribunal
of such standing that neither en-
ployers nor employees would dare
disregard it. In his official career
Mr.. Hughes has never forced legis-
lation without investigation. He
has never forced legislation in the
interest of any class in order to win
votes. He has ever been the con-
sistent friend of labor In the three
and half years that he served
New York as governor, one-third
as many laws safeguarding the in
terests Of labor were passed and
were approved by him, as had been
passed in all the previous history
Of that state. His first prominence
In National affairs came to him as
the champion of the people in their
fight against the greed and dis
honesty that had crept into the ad-
ministration of the affairs of the
great life insurance companies.
As governor of New York he swept
aside the bosses and the corrupt
bipartisan rings that had so long
held sway at Albany, and when an
issue was in doubt he won out by a
direct appeal to the people. There
lies his strength. He has the same

parrot-like cry:
Wilson kept us out of war;"
Well, did he? What war did he
keep us out of? Where is the ma
ton that sought war with us?
Where is the nation that could by
any possibility make war upon us?
True, our mails have been tam
pered with; our business institu-
tions have boycotted and blacklist
ed; out flag has been insulted; our
national honor has been sullied;
and hundreds of American lives
have been sacrificed in utter disre-
gard OF all international law; but
this has only happened because the
oontending powers of Europe felt
perfectly safe in treating our weak
and vacillating, underwriting admin

ing scorn.
There are two reasons why we
have avoided war with European

neither of them.
In the first place, no European

N. Y. Moderator Explains
Case OF Union Seminary
Graduates
YOUNG MEN DIDN'T
DENY VIRGIN BIRTH

NEW YORK. May 9.-The Rev. Dr.
Harlan G. Mendenhall, moderator Of
the Presbytery of New York. has
made a statement concerning the
charge of disloyalty brought by the
Presbytery of Cincinnati, which is 10
be taken up by the General Assembly
at Atlantic City, defining the religious
beliefs Of the three graduates Of Union
Seminary. whose licensing caused
Cincinnati to demand that New York
be cut on from membership.
There has evidently been a mis-
understanding said the Rev Dr.
Mendenhall, "as to the attitude of
those young men on questions Of doc
trinal nature. For example. they have
been spoken of as denying any belief
in the Virgin birth. As a matter OF
fact. they declared that they believed
i'm the pre-eXistonce of Christ as a
person and His incarnation as Jesus
OF Nazareth They did not deny a
belief i'm the Virgin birth. All three
OF the candidates expressed their be-
lief i'm the miracles of the Lord. in
the raising of Lazarus from the dead
and the resurrection Of our Lord
Himself and His appearances TO His
disciples. as reported i'm the gospels.

heartily and fully loyal to the evange-
lical faith and to the standards of
the Presbyterian Church. and IL is
careful and jealous in upholding that
faith and those standards. 1t has

DUD TAYLOR PROTESTS BUCKS
STRIKE BUREAU PLAN
Dudley Taylor, attorney for the
Associated Employers of Illinois and
fght-hand man-for his bread and
buffers sake-of all those who OPP
pose union labor and support the
oDen shop, appeared before the coun-
Gil police committee this morning to
protest against passage of Aid.
Bucks order creating strike bureau
in the police department.
In the course of his remarks he de-
clared that he represented the Illinois
Manufacturers assn, thereby ad-
hitting that the Associated Employ
ers of Ill. is simply strikebreaking
body for the Ill. Mfg. assn, in the
opinion of labor men.
To hear bud talk one would have
imagined that strikebreakers are all
exemplary types of manhood, they
are gentlemen through and through
and could do no wrong. The differ
ence between buds definition of a
strikebreaker, or private guards, as
he called them, and the definition
that would be given them by people
who saw them insulting and beating
up young girls in the garment strike
is that Dud draws a fancy salary for
making out that he believes that the
strikebreakers are polished courtiers.
bud appealed to the council COM
mittee to throw out that order en-
tirely." buds bosses are deathly
afraid of that order. They are afraid
if council passes it that their present
privilege of hiring strong-arm men
to beat up helpless men and women
will be curtailed
Taylor said he Ibid not believe
there could be such a thing as a neu-
