Governor Lister, speaking before Tacoma
church congregation Sunday night, hit the nail
on the head when he said Northwest labor prob
lens were "matters for discussion from human
standpoint between those concerned, and not
problem for legislation.
It's easy to read between the lines that he was
replying to the Washington Employers associa-
ton, which has asked him to round up the legs-
lature to pass law that would prevent labor
ers from striking under any circumstances.
Of course, the government needs an adequate
supply of labor to win the war.
And the government has worked out plan to
get it honestly-by working shoulder to shoulder
with labor. That's why President Wilson made
his Buffalo address. That's why Samuel Gompers
Is working night and day at Washington-vir-
tually member of the presidents cabinet
Gov. Lister knows all this. He has been called
to confer with the president at various times
The pity in the Northwest situation is that en-
ployers have failed utterly to understand the
president or labor and see only thru their profit
eering spectaces And by such requests as the
Employers association makes, the nations war
program is hampered because it stirs up doubts
and distrust on the part of labor.

Our CONGRATULATIONS

Here's happy birthday to the Church of the
Holy Communion, and to Rev. r. H. McGinnis,
Its rector
The members of that sturdy little church cele-
brated Its 30th anniversary Monday night with
big dinner
And believe us, they had something to eat din
ner and celebrate about.
For instance, the church has lived and flour
ished in Tacoma since 1887
It is free from debt, and has the boards all clear
for move ahead.
1t has five fine lots on which the church build
ing stands.
y 1t has good-sized fund on hand for new par
ish house and church edifice.
And it has rector who moves ahead, and a
rector's wife who does things, too. To their
work this record which the church is celebrating
Is largely due.
This church has succeeded where others have
fallen down, because it hasn't been content to sit
back on Sundays and try to thrive on doctrines
and airy theories. It has practiced what it has
preached. It has been a living thing, and has
made itself part of the life of the city.
Take look at the plans which DR.. McGinnis
has in mind for the new three-story parish house,
including:
A gymnasium "a room suitable for
dancing"
Shocking! But maybe that's just why the
Church of the Holy Communion is celebrating its
Both anniversary.

The Case of Norway

The people of the United States have, before
now, had occasion to feel considerable vexation
with some of the neutral" countries of Europe.
We have felt morally certain that to greater or
less degree, they were playing the game Of the
central powers.
But Norway has been, and continues to. be, a
conspicuous exception. 1t is only right that we
should recognize her Independent and courageous
attitude toward Germany. glance at the map
will show that southern Norway has much to fear
from German attack, against which her small
population and limited military resources would
be almost powerless
In spite Of this, Norway has maintained cour-
ageously her right to engage in world commerce,
and her mercantile fleet, said to be the fourth
largest in the world has been Of great service to
