SIGNIFICANT.

The supreme court in declaring the Adamson law
constitutional has taken step in direct opposition
to the nrepondcrance of legal opinion in the United
States. Its dctum that employee of public
utility or the court put it engaged in a bust
charged with public interest is subject to COM
pusory arbitration well as the carrier is estab-
fishing doctrine the widespread effect of which
should not be overlooked This Interpretation Of
the law empowers congress and through it the in
tersate commerce commission to virtually control
lie interest"
Government ownership without actual financial
responsibility is what the supreme courts deci-
sion means. The interstate commerce commission
now has the right to regulate rates. hours of labor
and wages. The Adamson law is an experiment and
labels itself such. The interstate commerce
commission is to keep tab on this experiment and
to testify to whether it is success or a failure
Compulsory arbitration by congress has worked
out all right in this instance in that it has pre-
vented strike Suppose however, that the COM
mission reports that the eight hour day with PRO
rata pay for overtime is not workable and that the
old schedules shall be established Will the en-
ployes then be willing to accept the Judgment of

Tense of the late Lord Kitchener was
made in the house Of commons today
by former Premier Asquith. who re-
piled to the criticisms levelled at his
government in the recently published
report of the Dardanelles commission.
Lord Kitchener was a masterful
man. endowed with formidable person
ality and disposed by nature to keep
his own counsel" said Mr.. Asquith.
But it is mistake to suggest that
he lived in isolation and did not con-
suit military opinion as to the con-
duct of the war. That is untrue. but
1t is true that during the early months
of the war he acted as his own chief
OF staff"
Mr.. Asquith said the Dardanelles ex-
petition was primarily a naval one
because Lord Kitchener proved to the
satisfaction Of the war council that the
resources to make it a joint military
and naval undertaking were not avail
able. He asserted the Dardanelles OPP
erations had saved the situation in the
Caucasus. prevented for months the
detection of Bulgaria to the Central
powers. kept 100000 Turks modified,
destroyed some of the finest troops of
the Turkish army and contributed to
the favorable events witnessed in
Egypt. .Mesopotamia and Persia"
The suggestion that good purpose
would be served by the Dardanelles
commission in continuing it's leaders
was received by the house with loud
cheers. The suggestion was made by
Sir Mark Sykes. who vigorously de-
Tended the Dardanelles operations.
Winston Spencer Churchill. former
first lord OF the admiralty. severely
criticized the manner in which the
Dardanelles commissions report had

contradictory reports have been re-

of the Grand Duke Nicholas who pre-

The foregoing dispatch would indicate
that he is on the eastern front and is
also confirmatory of reports that he
