"PIP.SQUEAKS" AND "GASPER"
Trench Journals Published by soIdiers
Have Names That Are Hard
to Understand.

The editors OF many OF the curious
little trench journals, which are being
brought out in ever-increasing NUM-
bers by soldiers at the front have
perfect genius for inventing queer and
bizarre titles for their publications.
Some of these, though certainly
strange-sounding, are at least under
standable. The "Pow-Wow," for in.
stance, which is the trench journal Of
the Twentieth Battalion Royal Fusi
Tiers, conveys some sort OF an intel
ligible idea to most people.
But the same cannot be said Of the
"Lead.Swinger,' which. its subtitle in.
forms us, is The Bivouac Journal OF
the Third West Riding Field Ambu.
lance" Is 'lead-swinger" Army slang
for an ambulance man? Or what?
"Pip.Squeaks' is another puzzling
title, until one learns incidentally. on
glazing through it's inside pages, that
"pip-squeak" is . special kind of small
German shell, socalled by Tommy
from the noise it makes when fired.
The Comb and Paper" reports and
criticizes concerts and other similar
entertainments ut the front The
Hangar Herald" presents no dificul
ties to anyone who knows that han.
gar" il the name airmen give to the
sheds where their aeroplanes are
stored. The paper deals, as its name
implies. with the doings of aviators
at the front.

MR.. COMPERS REPLY Railroads Will Yield to Demands
(By Marcus Day.

How the financial crooks who die
tate to business would rejoice if they
had Mr.. Hughes and Hughes cab
met in Washington during this strug-
gle between railroad owners and en-
ployees over wages and hours? What
rage must be suppressed when they
look toward Washington for govern
mental assistance in strangulation of
the brotherhoods. They have lost
the key to victory and you can wager
that a temporary settlement to the
controversy is certain. The interests
are not going to commit suicide by a
rule or ruin policy at this stage of
the game in politics. Their hope OF
defeating the universal recognition of
the eight-hour day in train-service
will be based upon their expectant
success at the polls in November
Watch the result of negotiations be-
tween the managers and employees
concerning the length of time any
new agreements are to run. 1t won't
be hard to fathom railroad desire
to coax a short contract only. The
magnates are already beaten as re-
CARDS temporary compliance with
most of the demands but they will be
stubborn to the last degree upon the
question of signing up agreements
for more than six months. 1t will
be noticed that the Republican press
is pussyfooting very softly right now
on the merits of this controversy and
is attempting to appear fearful OF
disaster to the country from a strike.
About the only public-opinion form
ing articles are paid for and labeled
advertisements. Should Mr.. Hughes
be elected open hostility to the eight
hour day will be sung as good Re
publican doctrine and the transporta-
tion kings will use governmental Of
i fce-holders to back them up. There
| is nothing more certain than that he
will select a plutocratic cabinet ii
case of election. He could not get
any other kind confirmed by Senate
made up of reactionaries.
The long delayed ripening of pub
ic ownership sentiment is certain to
