INDIAN, TEACHERS MEETING
Profitable and Enjoyable Meeting al
Indian Normal at Pembroke


Correspondence Of The Robesonian.
Raynham, Jan. 23-The Indian
teachers meeting which was held in
the auditorium of the Normal school
building Saturday, January 20, was
such that if each teacher present
was not benefited either directly
OF indirectly, it was his or her fault.
The program opened with the
singing of "America" by the corps
Of teachers and the reading Of a
Scriptural lesson by the chairman.
after which the invocation was of
fered by Mr.. J. w. Smith. The bus
mess part of the session followed
this, which was the election Of Mr..
J.. R. Lowry, chairman; Mr.. C. H.
Moore, secretary; and Mr.. O. R.
Sampson, Mr.. E. Lowry and Miss
Winnie Lee Bell program committee.
Then Mr.. j. W. Smith came to the
floor and very fittingly expressed
himself in regard to the attendance
school law. He was followed by Nh
Robert Smith and others. Mr. O.
r. Sampson next very briefly discuss
ed the advisability of having a coun-
tv commencement for Indian schools.
He was followed by others and the
discussion closed with the majority
Of the teachers present in favor Of
commenmecent. The next number
was that of Industrial education by
Miss L. H. McCullock. She dealt
with the subject from a practical
viewpoint and did not fail to "drive
home" valuable thoughts in the minds
Of the teachers. Her talk was ex-
ceedingly good, and showed some
deep and clear-cut thought. She was
followed by Mr.. A. B. Hardin, who
told about the school pig which his
school had bought. He stated that
the pig is for the school commence
ment and is being fed with the frag-
ments left from the students lunch
es. (This is very commendable for
it teaches a lesson of economy
Next came the "Properly Filled
Monthly Report" which was for gen
eral discussion. Same was very
pointedly discussed. after which Prof.
H. A. Neal, principal of the Nor
NAL school, announced that the do
mestic science class and teacher,
Miss McCullock, had dinner prepar-
ed in the domestic science hall for
the teachers and their visiting friends
and the program being through,
the meeting adjourned.
Upon conclusion of the above
mentioned discussions, the teachers
and visitors entered the domestic
science hall. Here they were re-
ceived by the domestic science teach
err and class. When all had enter
ed and seated themselves at the
tables, which were tastefully decorat-
ed, the dinner, consisting Of a feast
of many choice dainties, took place.
/ And as a finishing touch a huge tray
of fruit was taken around, whereup-
on the party broke up. Before their
departure, however, a rising vote OF
thanks was extended the teacher and
class for the feast which they had
, prepared as a surprise for the In
dian teachers of Robson county
/ and then left, all we'll satisfied that
thew had had one Of the best times
of their public experiences.

of Lumberton, who may be one Of the
future senators from CASTOR, came
up yesterday with his father, Sena-

future Senator here's hoping he
will pass law requiring newspaper

\ CORREC CTION.

In yesterdays issue of the Indus trial Worker. d misinterpretauou ol the dispatch made it appear that the Adameon law was unconstItu rional. Four opposed the law but five voted to make it constitu- tional and granting the train men time and a half for overtime the railroads to compete the back pay from January. It is a distinct and satisfactory victory. The story ot the struggle is therefore worth re- beating.
 Last yean as everyone knows, the brotherhoods of the railroad indus trv resolved 10 demand the eight hour dag with overtime penalties il they had worked longer than that period
 II is immateriaI just HOW whether they were right or wrong from any possible standpoint They proposed to enforce the demand by a strike and the vote to strike was practi- rallv unanimous. After repeated con fcrcnces the brotncrhoods, the man agers and the presidents failed to agree. Both sides stood pat. Pre- sident Wilson acting upon the invi- tation of one of the railroad presi- dents invited both the company managers and presidents and the brotherhood executives to Washing ion.
 The managers suggested arbitra- tion-with conditions attached These were such as to exclude ma iority of the brotherhood employees Very little publicity was given tc that side of the managers arbitra- ton proposals and very few Of the supporters of the companies kne" anything about this limited arbitra. tiou.
 President Wilson was or said inc was impressed with the justice oI 3he railroad brotherhood demands and urged the managers to cohced' the demands and upon their re1us ing the request of the President, ht turned to Congress and asked in the meanwhile the Jrotherhoods to de- fer strike action until the Congress of the nation legislated suitably This request was regarded by the brotherhood men as a command ano they reluctantly acquisced in the de lay to the strike.
 Then was passed the Adamsol law. Whether there was four ffths politics and one fifth square dealing in that Adamson law is qult' beside the question. T. declared .o' an eight hour standard i'll certain Kinds of railroad work, all of WhIci was performed by the hrotherhoods said eight hour standard to go intt effect on January i.

the large vote which Wilson got was got by reason of the Adamson bill and his part in driving it through Congress.
 As the day for the inauguration of the law came nigb suits were filed asking the United States cou ts to enjoin the government from en- forcing the Adamson law because said law was unconstitutional. The Court heard both sides. and in order he said to hasten it's appearance be- fore the Supreme Court he without considering either the law or the authorities on the subject as he ad- mits decided against the government holding the law unconstitutional.
 Judge Hook, who rendered that decision which is memorable one, in that t Is admittedly reached not l for the purpose of delivering a legal opinion which has been conscientious { Iy arrived at, but to hasten the case being considered by the Supreme i Court. has been criticized for not upholding the bill and throwing the onus of the appeal upon the rail- roads also HCok merely revealed the recognized class bias of the courts while showing the useleSsness of his lower court except as a means of protra cting litigation.
 The Supreme Court heard the ar guments shortly afterwards, But unlike Hook they were in no rush. From January to March 19 they had the case under advisement. It was immaterial to them that their decision would strangulate the whole industry one way or another They showed no disposition tc budge. They awaited the moment when war was appearing in full panoply upon the threshold of the nation. and when a strike would bt literally impossible, they approved the act.
 Just as d decision of the Supreme Court would have thrown the in dustrial situation into a complete chaos if the Adamson law was con demned. so this decision will war rant Congress in interfering IT strike troubles by legislation where heretofore they had no warrant tc enter.
 It is manifest that the position oi the managers in holding that it car enable the future strikes to be de clared unlawful is sound no matter how the case may be viewed, ant for that reason, vesting such power , in Congress it will give political ac tivity upon the part of the working class. as matter of sheer self pro lection. renewed life.
 That is the logic of the situation which we must all recognize, jus , as we would be compelled to see il , a contrary decision the reverse o this.
