THE HoLD.UP THAT FAILED

Secretary of the Navy Daniels does
not enjoy public confidence to any
marked degree but sentiment is with
him in his dispute with American mu
milton manufacturers who were under.
bid by British firm for a shell con.
tract. 1t is his business to prepare
the navy for It's business, obtaining
the best munitions and the best equip
ment for the least money. In pursu.
ance OF that obligation he has con.
tracted for shell in the cheapest mar.
ket, which chances to be British.
American manufacturers who COR.
plain that the United States govern.
ment should be sufficiently loyal 10
home industry to purchase their com
modities at an advanced price might
reflect that they should be patriotic
enough to forego their usual profits in
dealing with their country. Prepared
ness Is sufficiently expensive without
paying bonus TO American producers
OF war equipment to whom European
orders have already brought pros
perity almost staggering.
II Is probable that the lesser bid
from England surprised the Bethlehem
Steel company quite as much as its &C
ceptancc irritatcd the American con
Germ. The Pennsylvania corporation
doubtless assumed bids would be avail
able only from the United states an,
would be Mt the usual figure. II Their,

BAN LIFTED ON OLD MEN

When an Indian grows old, he Is
cast off by some tribes. and in TINS
great country OF ours, there is some
evidence OF this Indian trait. Men,
when they age. are discredited in GER
tain lines OF employment, and are os'
tracised.
Let us rejoice that this barbarism
is being resented. In many cities or
carnations are being formed TO upset
this age limit by championing the
Judgment, experience and seasoned
ability OF men along in years.
Benjamin J. Rosenthal, chairman Of
n Chicago organization, said:
Never before in my life have | seer
advertisements specifying men OF age
As to So years" In the report of tht
committee 1t is said
AT a meeting in the Olympic thea
ter more than 1900 unemployed mel
attended. Many employers also wer'
present. They were amazed at thu
splendid appearances, neat dress, ant
intelligence of the applicants"
AS a result of its work, the repor
asserts, many men have been giyel
positions. II says also that many o
the committees applicants have Sc
cured positions without the aid of tn
committee, thus showing tEat tn
age bar Is being lowered" The con
mittee has asked many factories to r.
adjust their work so that its appl
cants can supplant young girls an
boys. A letter from one concern whic
undertook the change, expresses pei
feet satisfaction. The report assert
that there are too many children WORT
ing in Chicago.-Ogden Standard.
