Germans Make Another Successful
Raid Over English East Coast
One Teuton Plane Lost.

London, July 23.-Another daylight

of England Sunday morning resulted
in the repulse of about twenty German
tairplanes, afte they had dropped a
number of bombs over FelixstOwe and
Harwich, killing eleven persons and in

An alarm was sounded in London,
but before the Germans could reach
any point near the city they were
heavily attacked by defending squad

them to change their minds and beat
a hasty retreat.
One German machine was brought
down over the channel.
British planes pursued the Germans
we'll out to sea, fighting vigorously all
the time, but handicapped by the low
visibility. Reports of heavy firing re-
;ceived from various quarters indicates
that the authorities have made consid-

EMBARGO Is TO BE STRICT
President Determined That Supplies of
Food Shall Not Go Through to
the German Army.

Washington, July 23.-The president
and his advisers on the exports coun-
Gil have finally decided that no more
sustenance must get to Germany to-
keep German armies in the field.
Within very short time the ex-
ports control will develop into a strict
embargo on food products and military
material for neutrals adjacent to Ger
many. The exports council has quiet
~ informed shippers and exporters
that they must prepare for this.
The president has become convinced
that this will not be a measure aimed
at the German people. 1t has been
proven to him that the large amount of
fats which seeped into Germany
through Holland and Scandinavia
last year, a fat ration for 100000,
went to the troops in the field first.
The civil population got little of it.

When the vicious and reactionary interests Sc
cured control of the political affairs OF North Da-
kota the farmers and wage-earuers pooled their in

who had reached such state OF arrogance that it
was impossible to enact any law in the interest OF

II the Democratic majority refuses to repeal the
Industrial Commission law other inference can
be placed upon its refusal than that the party is
controlled by financial and industrial interests
that are nmical to the people OF the state. Like
wise, the party will also align itself with the Ma

Anti Boycott association, railroad corporations,
employers associations, hostile chambers OF COM
merce, and every antagonist OF labor.
1t is not the purpose OF this paper to misudge
those who in control OF the present legislature

close observer is toward giving organized labor a

Denver labor bulletin., 1917-01-27

Organized labor OF the state OF Colorado knows
what IT wants and proposes to convey its wants in
unmistakable terms to the members OF the Thirty
first General Assembly. Organized labor demands
the repeal OF the Industrial Commission law.
Every union OF labor in this state, including the rail
way brotherhoods, is earnestly and actively exer-
oising its influence to the end that the Industrial
Commission law, establishing involuntary servi-
tude in this state among the wageearners, shall be
repealed
There appears to be a sentiment existing among
many OF the members OF the legislature that Cow
ernor Guntcr is a supporter OF this law and is a
warm advocate OF its retention. Whether this at
tude Is assumed to conceal the real purpose of the
Legislators or not will develop in the future That
the governor has committed himself on the reten-
tion OF the law the repeal publicly is denied by
the chief executive himself In an interview with
a committee OF some thirty representatives OF or
ganizd labor Governor Gunter disclaimed that even
in his inaugural address or in any other manner
had he taken position either for against the
Industrial Commission law.
In justice to Governor Gunter this paper assumes
that the governor Is OF an open mind, and that If
it can be shown that this law is subversive OF the
constitutional rights OF the wage-earners and in
derogaton OF a republican form OF government he
will lend his assistance and influence repeal the
law
At the coming hearings before the two Indus
trial Relations committees OF both houses labor
will for the first time have opportunity to pre-
sent its contentious or the repeal OF the involuntary
statute. With the passage OF the Seamen's act in
1915 with the history OF the failure OF the Lemeux
act in Canada, with the refusal of congress to pass
compulsory service law last fall affecting the
train service organizations in the operation of
trains with the refusal OF the Interstate Commerce
committee OF the United States senate by vote of
to 3 to accept the compulsory service provision
OF the Newlands railroad bill, and with the abso-
lutte and unqualified failure OF the Colorado Indus
trial Commission law there is an array of evidence
against the retention of Colorado's involuntary
servtude statute sufficient to justify its repeal by
a unanimous OF the legislature
1t must not be forgotten that Republican legis-
lature wrote this obnoxious law into the statute
books OF Colorado. The campaign made by ex-
Governor Carlson for reelection was largely ba sed
upon the fact that Republican Legislature en-
acted the involuntary servitude statute Men high
IN the councils OF labor were assured by the lead
ers OF the Democratic party prior the last e,ec-
ton that II that party returned to power the
obnoxious law would be wiped off the statute
books.
Labor did its full share in turning this state over
to the Democratic party last fall. Full and hearty
support was given because OF the tacit understand

NEED FOR CONSERVATION.
Reports Show $4,000 Deaths Annual
ly in the Industries.

In calling attention to the need for
conservation legislation, committees
representing the chamber of COM
merce of the United States report
that during the last twenty-five years
the danger in industries to life and
limb has grown in breadth and inten-
sity, and that there are annually 25,-
900 deaths in this country as a result
of industrial accidents.
In the conservation of natural re-
sources it is stated that only about
25 per cent of the total volume of
lumber as it stands in the forest now
reaches the ultimate consumer, most
of the remainder being wasted. Mil
lions of barrels of oil are lost and a
condition equally as bad exists in con-
nection with natural gas and many
other natural resources. The director
of the federal bureau of mines is
quoted as saying that about 40 per
cent of the coal in the seam is lost,
so far as beneficial utilization is con-
cerned.
