ADJUSTMENTS
THE LYRIC.

The management takes pleasure in an
nouncing the coming engagement of
Elizabeth Marbury's and +. Ray Com
stocks charming musical comedy, Every
Good, Eddie" which comes here almost
directly after a twelve months engage
ment at the Princess and Casino Thea
terS.
The book of "Very Good Eddie" is
the joint work of Barthoomae and Guy
Bolton, with music by Jerome Kern,
who wrote the music of "Nobody
Home" and lyrics by Schuyler Greene.
The cast is the same as seen at the New
York theaters, and includes Ada Lewis,
Arthur Aylcsworth, Helen Raymond,
George Mack, James Lounsberry, Laura
Hamilton, Earl Benham, Mignon Nc
Gibney, Dorothy Sylvia, Elliott Taylor,
chorus of exceptional beauty and Law
ish display of charming gowns and re-
cent Paris importations that will de-
light all
Unlike the usual comedy with music,
"Very Good Eddie" claims plot worth
while. Briefly, there is a story of two
young married couples who start on
their honeymoon on a Hudson River
Doat. some ulIllCulty arises about the
luggage, and one of the husbands and
one of the wives 90 ashore to straightcn
matters out. The boat pulls away from
the dock, separating the newlyweds. The
couple remaining aboard the boat are
forced to spend the night at a little inn
under embarrassing circumstances. OF
course, they are obliged to register as
bride and groom, and many laughable
complications arise While the most I'M
usual situations occur, the story is al
ways wholesomely comic and never Dor
ders near the suggestive.

FAVORS "COMPANY" UNION.

New York.-Prcsiden Shonts of the
lnterborough Rapid Transit Company
opposes portion of the no-strike plan
urged by Chairman Straus, of the public
service commission.
While the scheme is also opposed by
organized labor Mr.. Shonts' opposition
does not come from any desire for lib
erty for his employees. He favors col
lective bargaining, but not the trade
union kind-rather the system employed
by the mutual benefit association or
ganized by the marlborough.
President Shonts says there is need
for "insuring uninterrupted service
pending investigation" which is another
way of saying that he favors system
that will tie street car employees to their
Jobs.

GOOD ADVICE FOR UNIONISTS.

Haskell, Textile Farm Educator,
published in the interest of the Farm
ers' Union, offers this suggestion which
should be accepted by trade unionists
"Brethren, guard the door Of your
organization, and see that no one but
farmers cross its threshold, and fully
make up your minds that there are
plenty of men among yourselves or
your own class who have the ability
to handle and control the workings of
the organization in all its details and
who may be trusted as leaders to
guard and protect its destiny.
I'VE know, and are bound to admit
from sad experience, that our greatest
enemies, the men who have given us
the greatest trouble, and who have
impeded the progress of the farmers
organization in the past, are men who
have been on the inside of such organ
ization and not those on the outside"
The labor advocate. [volume] (Cincinnati, Ohio) 1912-1937, 1917-02-24

Portland, Ore.-The local chamber
of commerce in urging State represen-
tatives to favor an anti-picketing bill
now pending in the legislature, and the
Oregon Labor Press, published in this
city, says it is noticeable how anxious
these business men are to do something
for the workers and how opposed they
are to the workers organizing and do
ing things for themselves
"They ask for the passage of the
bill, not so much because of the fact
that there has been any wrongful acts
committed that cannot be punished I'M
der existing laws, but because of their
great fear that there would be some
thing happen in the future" says the
paper.

INK WORKERS VICTIMIZED.

Cincinnati-The newly-formed union
of printing ink workers is having
trouble When these workers began
discussing unionism the Queen City
Printing Ink Company raised wages
and reduced hours. Its employees were
the first to join the union, however, and
the company then discharged officers
OF the union. This action forced a
strike and the ink workers are now ap-
pcalng to fellow unionists in the print
ing trades to assist them in securing
the right to organize without being vic
timizcd.
The Schwarm & Jacobus Printing
Ink Company has signed an agreement
with the new union.

OPPOSE OVERTIME BILL.

Albany, n. Y-Trade unionists are
opposing the Bewley overtime bill, in
troduced in the State legislature, which
would authorize the State industrial
commission to permit persons over 1S to
work unlimited overtime in making up
for losses occasioned by breakdown of
machinery. The workers declare that
the bill puts premium on continuous
inefiiciency in the upkeep of machinery
and would open the way for all sorts of
violations OF the womcn's 54-hour law.
