his is quite an indictment lot one
individual to place against millions.
They will rise en- masse only when
lashed with knout, as in Russia.
Workers, like wolves, are pacifed
when thrown a little food discrimi-
nately. They will fight or fawn in
hope of getting more.
They know well what they need
and want, but hang in packs await
ing a leader Then, getting what
they were after, they Immediately
forget their leader; and leaders are
but human. Christ, the Great Teach
er, at the end could but say: Father,
forgive them; they know not what
they do" And since that time they
must work out their own salvation.
It is true. 1t will never be, done with
out leadership, but my philosophy
comes from bitter experience, and I
say, let them hope, pray and beg for
it. Possibly they will then appre-
ciate.
Remarks I have heard coming
from union men CD since the en-
ployers have instituted the bonus
system nave caused me to lose some
of my fast-waning faith in men. And
what does this bonus mean in dollars
and cents to the workers? 1 know
of one place where they gave a 10
per cent gift CD on their yearly
earnings.
First, having systematically re-
duced wages on an average of so
cents day, saving the employer
$156, out of this he gave bonuses
averaging 500 to those who were in
his employ continuously for five
years. And still the poor goofs can't
see it. There is one born every min
ute. We sure do need birth control

ST. LOUIS TO PASS UP
A. A. u. WITH GAMES

ST. LOUIS, June 25-The 1917 ma
tional outdoor track and field championship
of the Amateur Athletic Uuion, scheduled
to be held here late this summer, will in
all probability he called off.
Thomas Watts, president of the West
ern A. A. L.. under whoses auspices the
games were to be decided, virtually has
decided that the contests would be so lack
ing in title class as to make the holding
of the meet useless for championship pur-
noses. So many athletes have enlisted for
military service, he said, that the games
have been robbed of their usual attrac-
tiveness
Watts said that he might attempt to
interest the Red Cross in financing the az
fair 40 that whatever profits might be made
could be turned over to war relief funds.
