or malleable road surface which is
adapted to horse-drawn as well as
fast-moving motor traffic. This is the
factor mainly responsible for the con-
slant increase In asphalt macadam or
asphaltic concrete.
In roads of this type, as In plain
waterbound macadam, the stone Is
the wear-resisting portion of the sur
face. The purpose of the asphalt is
70 cement the stone together into a
malleable mass-not TO make an I'M
yielding slab, as of cement concrete,
but road crust that will be dustless,
waterproof and provide easy traction
for both horse-drawn and motor vehi
elss.
Life Of Road Depends on Asphalt.
II Ii easily seen that the life Of the
read will depend upon the life of the
asphalt. II the asphalt cement loses
its hold on the stone it begins to ravel
ont, holes develop, water stands in
them, and the road is doomed.
TIE difference in asphalts mainly ap-
pears in the length of time they retain
their full cementing power Artificial
or manufactured asphalts and the nat
ural asphalts all analyze very much
alike in the laboratory. The difference
between them appears after they are
put into a road or street.
The natural asphalts have been ex-
posed to the elements for centuries and
90 are not affected by heat, cold and
water. The manufactured asphalts are
for the first time exposed to Natures
destructive influences when they are
put into road and for this reason
quickly lose the qualities that they
show under laboratory analysis.

A Poor Kind Of Economy.

Natural asphalts cost little more
than asphalts manufactured from oil,
but the difference Is only few cents
per yard. The labor, stone and other
construction costs are the same, and 1t
Is evidently poor kind of economy to
save" few cents on the cost Of the
asphalt when by SO doing the whole
investment may be wasted.
According to government authorities,

HERE AND THERE
EDITOR NOT FRIGHTENED

WORCESTER, Mass. - The editor
of the Worcester Post announces that
he has received a "neighborly call
from Mr.. Donald Tulloch, who, as
everybody probably knows, is secre-
tary of the National Metal Trades as
ISOLATION"
The editor then informs the public
that Mr.. Tulloch expressed disapprov.
al of the Posts efforts to secure a
settlement of the strikes in this city.
To show how seriously the Post has
sinned, Mr.. Tulloch declared that
that paper would never again receive
advertising or news from the Metal
Trades association.
And the editor says: This, of
course, is very serious outlook, and
we are very sorry.*

LABOR DOESN'T LIKE 1T

Rev. O. J. Stone of the City Res
cue Mission is reported as stating
that within ten days there will have
been Jobs offered all unemployed of
the city. He says: "Of course the
wages are not large, but enough for
any laborer who really wants work"
Just so, Mr.. Stone; the wages are
not large, but coarse food without
proper clothing, shelter, medical treat
ment, etc, are better than nothing.
This sounds very much as though ad'
vantage is being taken of the men
who are hungry - possibly on the
verge of starvation-and they are to
be obtained for just as little as ne
cessity forces them to accept. Christ
said in effect that the worker is the
salt of the earth. He also said in
effect that the laborer is worthy of
his hire In the mind of labor this
means that labor is of the greatest
importance in the world and that it
is entitled to all it produces - a
thought that is directly opposed to
that which is accepted as coming
from you-and yet many of your kind
pretend to wonder why the members
of the working class do not attend
the churches Sundays and evenings.
In fact, there is a serious lack of un-
derstanding between the church and
labor, a misunderstanding between
labor and religious teachers. Remove
this and the churches will be filled at
all times when they are open. The
removal of this misunderstanding can.
not be effected by sending men away
from their homes to work at a price
less than a reasonable wage. In the
minds of many it cannot be removed
until the workers receive their entire
share of the product of labor. 1t is
well to repeat: SO long as the appar
ent effort is made to aid in forcing
the worker to accept any less than is
Justly due him, the worker is going
to class the one or ones who seem t.
eaid in such attempt as working hand
in hand with the devil-as a vol
dressed in sleeps clothing.

the United States may well entertain
alarm and apprehension. From the
Fairmont precedent they may well
take warning. Under its terms no EN-
ploye of any railroad, north or south,
east or west, may be free to quit his
employment The peaceable strike of
railroad employees in the future, un-
der this precedent regardless of their
motive, becomes a crime. No ground
could suffice to remove the charge
that could lie against the man whose
individual retirement from the serv-
ice would in any wise retard the de
livery of the mail while a strike of
any number of employees upon any
railroad engaged in the handling of
the mails, under the terms of statute
as now officially construed, becomes
criminal conspiracy.
1T is useless to attempt to mini
mize the seriousness OF the case that
confronts the railroad man specifical-
ly. And hardly less important is the
situation which confronts the laborer,
whatever may be his calling"

SUNSHINE IS NECESSARY
TO DEVELOP CHILD LIFE

WASHINGTON.-"All things living
must come to their highest state of
development under the environments
of pure air and wholesome sunlight"
said Representative Ayres of Kansas
in a speech favoring the Heating
Owen child labor bill, which was lat
err passed by the House
The Kansas lawmaker referred to
speeches on the tariff the income
and emergency tax, and other discus
sions, but" he said, "the measure
that is now being considered on the
floor of this house is one of the most
important, if not the most vital, ques-
ton that has been before congress
for many days. 1t is important and
vital because it deals with the very
life and blood of the nation; that
which is intended to protect not only
the present generation but to build
up great men and women and perpet.
uate them for all time.
"Mr. Speaker, a nation to be great
cannot be peopled with weaklings,
physically or mentally. There is only
one way to prevent this condition
and that is to protect and educate
the children of our nation. We know
that no child of tender years can work
| in a factory, mill, or a workshop
without injury to it's health This
fact needs no scientific investigation
to establish it as a truth. No argu
ment is necessary to convince the or
binary mind that a boy, stunted anC
dwarfed physically in childhood anC
neglected in his mental development
cannot be a stalwart defender of thi!
nation; no girl who mas been deprived
of the tender care due her at thi
critical time of life, when her environ
ments and teachings should be tn,
most wholesome, can develop int
the charming graces and virtues o
beautiful womanhood and useful moth
erhood. Deprive this nation of thes
blessings, you will deprive it of it
very life and it's very existence"

PILES DIDN'T WRECK EASTLAND

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.-The gov
eminent has virtually eliminated pill
ing as a contributory cause of the
Eastland disaster, which is one of
the defenses of the owners of the
Chicago excursion steamboat which
capsized last summer The govern
ment surprised the defense when div
ers employed by it testified that they
examined the bottom of the river be
fore divers employed by the company
These government witnesses said
that the longer of the two piles in
question was only a trifle over two
feet out from the dock and therefore
could not have been a factor, while
the other pile had more than one
foot of water between it and the bot
tom of the boat. A naval designer
for the Chicago bureau of rivers and
harbors testified that the Eastland
was of faulty construction and unsea-
worthy as an excursion boat This
evidence is in line with that of the
boats builder, who testified that the
Eastland was originally intended for
carrying freight.

SAYS WORKERS MUST UNITE

DETROIT-"Every man who works
in the ranks of labor owes it to him
self and to every other man that he
be a part and parcel of this move
ment," said Judge Jeffres, before a
large meeting of organized street car
workers in this city.
"The labor movement comprehends
and means everything" he said. ut
means the uplift and betterment of
mankind 1t is civilizing move
ment
Whether you realize it or not, the
men of organized labor have made
more substantial progress than
through any other channel.
The strength of your union. as you
know, is the strength of the other
unions. 1t would be impossible for
your union to succeed without the
aid of those who struggled for years
and years and who have devoted theiI
time to organized labor.
Even Mr.. Rockefeller himself, the
arch-captain of industry, has at last
acknowledged the right of men to or
ganize."

CHILD LABOR BILL PASSED

WASHINGTON.-By vote OF 33l
to as the house passed the Keatlng-
owen child labor bill, and this meas
ure now goes to the senate.
The act debars from interstate COM
merce the shipment of products made
in whole or in part by children under
IA years in workshops and factories,
and under 16 years in mines and
quarries.
Practically all opposition came from
representatives of southern textile
sections. Their arguments were
mainly on two points-unconstitution
atty and interference with the lndl-
vidual. Congressman Aiken of South
Carolina presented the latter senti-
ment as follows:
81 cannot lose sight of the fact that
any interference with the right OF
parent to put his child to work at
such age as he may deem wise, II
that labor is necessary for the sup
port of the family, is in a measure
subversiveI of the individual rights
of the citizen. We want no federal
agents going through our mills and
mill villages telling our people when
their children shall go to work and
when they shall not, and telling our
men and women how many hours they
may work per day and how many not
And why apply the provisions of a
federal act to children of mill opera
tives? Why not the children of law
yers, farmers, merchants or Other
professions or callings? I can readily
conceive of the employees in manufac
turing plants feeling righteous indig

LOWER WAGE FOR MExIcANs

PHOENIX, Ariz.-One clause of the
agreement that adjusted differences
between copper operators and their
striking employees, provides that in
the payment of wages no discrimina-
ton shall be made because of nation
ality. This ends the custom of pay
ing lower rate to Mexicans.
In a statement to the Labor Jour
nal of this city, Second Vice Presi-
dent Donnelly of the state federation
of labor, who was active in behalf of
the strikers, said:
Zone of the most important fea-
lures of the truce is the retention by
the men of the right to organize. This
is important, for it was the big thing
for which the men contended through
out.
when we consider that never be-
fore has there been any semblance
of a strike or any organized effort to
obtain better conditions in the Cliff
ton district, the determination and
persistence which has characterized
this strike is all the more remarkable
and the men are to be congratulated
on their success"
Here are some of the conditions
that forced these workers on strike
last September:
Hospital fee, So a month for mar
ried men, and $3.50 for single men
This applied only in case of injury
If ill an additional 81 per day was
charged. No appeal against wage re
auctions. A charge of $1.25 per
month for water for each person EN-
ployed who is served by the hydrant
on his place. If a worker refused tC
patronize company Stores he was
discharged.
