agencies will also be keen1y needed in the transition period that will fol- low the declaration of peace and the work of dem obiization.
 we urge the immediate necessity of providing for some adequate form of employment agencies in this coun- try. under federal control, and co-or- dinating all local efforts along this
 line.
 We further recommend that some action be taken by this convention in- sist1ng upon our government to make such plans for demobilization so that men will remain in the employment i of the government until they can be provided with remunerative employ ment through government employ ment agencies, unless they have not employment opportunities already open to them"
 Since the war began, the report says the American labor movement has se- : cured the "best agreements with the government that have been secured in any other warning countries" The agreements established new period in the industrial world" says the report, "a period in which the 1 Government has sanctioned standards based upon principles of human well fare and has substituted these stand ards for the old system under which prohts were paramount"
 foremost among these agreements are cited the understanding entered into between the Secretary of War ana Samuel Gompers, president of the Federation, which provided that local standards should govern wages, hours and conditions in the building of cantonments. The report points out that the gigantic construction task was carried through without in terruption. This understanding sub sequently was approved bv the Secre- tary of the rH V. for all work on land undertaken by this department
 Other agreements mentioned in cludcd q memorandum for the ad- justment by a joint board of wages, hours and conditions in shipbuilding plants; an agreement to govern con- ditions of labor in loading and un- loading vessels; and the creation of a commission to settle disputes in the harness and saddlery industry. Considerable space is devoted to the attitude of the council toward prob lems raised by the war which have been expressing public attention. Chief among these is the much-d dis cussed suggestion for the conscrip- : tion of labor, concerning which the 1 report says:
 1 Immediately after the declaration
 of war by the United States Govern ! ment, an agitation was commenced for 1 the purpose of organizing what was to
 be known as an Industrial Reserve
 It was proposed that men in industry | should become part of a semi ilitary 1 organization to be directed and con-
 trolled by our military establishment.
 to the end that those employed in in- 1 dustry could be shifted from one loca-
 ton to another. Because of it's mill

 Dosed by the officers of the American

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets are
 aHaruless Substitute.
All druggists, soc, S1.2O.

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets substi. ute for calouel - are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost Instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calonel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive.colored tablets.
 These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel doeA but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of tho trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
 Most headaches. "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation ant . diSordered liver. Take Dr: Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel '1oggy" ane "heavy." Note how they 'clear" cloudet brain and how they "perk up" the spirits l0c and 25c box. All druggists.

 "2 It shall be declared that the basic workday in industry and com- merce shall not exceed eight hours.
 "3. Involuntary servitude shall not exist except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.
 "4 Establishment of trial by jury.
 Many of the problems of recon struction can not be worked out dur ing the war while feeling is so intense. The situation and opportunities which peace will bring will be without prece- dent 1t Is of paramount importance that labor shall be free and unem- barrassed in helping to shape the principles and agencies for the future.
 we suggest therefore all prejudice and partisan spirit can best be ellm- mated by reconstructing international labor relations and thus bring to new problems and a new era, activity and cooperation unhampered and unperverted by former alliances or old feuds.
 "The basis of reconstruction should be the trade union movements of the various countries. We recommend that an international labor confer ence of representatives of the trade union movements of all countries be held at the same time and place as the World Peace Congress that labor may be in touch with plans under consideration and may have the bene- fit of information and counsel of those participating in the congress-
 Reconstruction after the war will raise new issues, the report holds, and the nation cannot discard lightly the idea of service engendered by CO., operation of all classes against com mon enemy Pointing to the experi- ence of Great Britain, the council says:
 There has been a recognition Of the principle that those associated in the work of production ought to have a voice in management of those things concerning their interest and welfare. There has been recognition for the thought that industrial disfranchise- ment is as unjust as political dis franchisement.
 "In our town country there is evi- 1 dent in ev4ry kind of war work the 1 necessity for some national agencies 1 for better adjusting the supply of l workers. We are entering a period 1 where there must he greater economy in the use of the man power of our l country. A central, efficient employ 1 ment agency with it's branches arc plainly necessary in performing the gigantic task that is now before the Emergency Fleet Corporation and ir the necessary work of production o1 1 war supplies.
 With the withdrawal of hundreds of thousands of men for military pur. poses there is necessity for readjust
 ment in the industrial field. Effective employment agencies. under the con
 trol of the Department of Labor, co l operating with local agencies and as
 sociations would be an invaluable ad ! Junct to our war machinery. Sua2

THE SONG OF THE SUPERS.

We've been the Roman army and
we've been the Paris mob.
We've marched with Dave Belas-
J cos boys in blue,
We've fought in Shenandoah, and
we've often had the job
Of assisting in the Tanning of the
Shrew.
We're battle battered veterans of
every blessed age
We can stand before'a stage direc-
tors Damn
But we've made our last appearance
and we're going to engage
For a season on the road with
Uncle Sam.
We've rushed across from R. toll.
pursuing empty air,
We've done some noble slaughter
in the wings,
We've fired thousand volleys on a
foe that wasn't there,
And it seems to us we're fit for
better things.
We want to feel the fever of a real
istic fight,
And we want to storm a. fort that
ain't a sham;
We're sick of being soldiers at half
PUNK night,
So we're going on the road with
Uncle Sam.
And it isn't for the glory and it isn't
for the pay
For none of us expect to be star
But it's just the human longing for
the madness of the fray,
It's wanting to be really what we
are.
So we've quit the Roman army, and
we've laid the props aside,
And the stage door shuts behind us
with slam,
And we amt afraid Of dying-for
we've very often died
And we'll gladly die again for I'm
Gle Sam.

VILLAGE Or FREsN0Y IS
RECAP TURtO BY GERMANS
WIN POSSESSION or TOWN RE.
GENTLY TAKEN BY CA.
MADAM TROOPS.

New York, May 9.--Summing up
the news from all the battle fronts
in Europe the Associated Press says
After five days of extraordinarily
hard fighting between the Canadians
and the Germans the little village of
Fresnoy, lying southeast of Lens,
and the adjacent wood are again in
German hands
In the retaking of these positions
where the Canadians had stood foi
days holding the most advanced sa-
lient in the British line, Drojectino
toward Douai, the Germans evidently
paid terrible price Preceded b.
a heavy artillery fire, in which as
phyxiating gas shells were showeret
in large numbers, the counter attack
was launched in the early morning.
The machine Gun and rifle fire ol
the defenders met the Germans as
they threw themselves forward, but
they would not be denied and final
ly penetrated the trenches northeas'
of the village and even entered the
outskirts of the village itself. Their
tenure of the position, however, was
sholt-lived, for the Canadians soor
afterwards returned to the fray
drove out the Germans and again
held full sway.

MANUFACTURERS OF ICE
DECIDE To REDUCE PRICE
AFTER FINDING SENTIMENT OF
LOCAL CITIZENS THEY
MAKE CHANGE.

On account of the high price of

livery Company several weeks ago
maze a slight advance in the price
Of ice. claiming that the change was
necessary in order to meet the high
cost of living.
During the past two weeks several
articles against the high price of ice
written by Rev. James McCaskill
we're published in the Columbus
Commercial, and many people over
the raised up on account Of the ad-
vance, claiming that the citizens of
this city were having to pay more
for ice than people in any other near
by towns
Seeing that the sentiment was
against the raise in price, the local
manufacturers gladly reduced the
rate to the same AZ that which was
paid last year. In the future ice
scales will be on each wagon, and
full weight at the old prices will be
given.
