ton of the Supreme Court in the
Adamson law decision that the right
of railroad employees to strike is limit
ed by the public interest.
The labor leaders declared the court
had gone out of its way to inject this
reactionary" assertion into it's opin-
ion. Later the following statement
was given out with the approval of Mr..
Gompers at federation headquarters:
The president and secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, Sam
uel Gompers and Frank Morrison, to-
day presented to Attorney General
Gregory in his office a protest in the
name of the workers of this country
against the opinion rendered by the
United States Supreme Court in going
out of its way upon matters not before
the court and dragging in compulsory
arbitration.
The Supreme Court, by interpolating
into the law and argument before it
for consideration a foreign matter,
namely, denial to workers of the right
to quit work in furtherance of their
just and necessary rights, pointed out
the way to those who wish to tie work
ers to their work in order to protect
the supposed convenience of the pub
lie.
Mr.. Gompers called attention to the
splendid, progressive fundamental
declaration in both Mexico and Rus
sia, countries which are passing
through a period of danger and ma

tional stress, assuring to the workers
of those countries the right to
strike"
The opinion of the United States Su-
preme Court in connection with the
Adamson law decision belongs to the
old reactionary despotism of Russia
and Mexico, and is out of harmony
with the free institutions of this re-
public.
In rendering its decision on the con-
stitutionality of the Adamson law on
Monday the Supreme Court said:
AS to the employe, here again 1T is
obvious that what we have previously
said is applicable and decisive, since
whatever would be the right of an en-
ploye engaged in a private business to
demand such wages as he desires to
leave the employment if he does not
get them and by concert of action to
agree with others to leave upon the
same condition, such rights are neces-
sarily subject to limitation when en-
ployment is accepted in a business
charged with a public interest and as
to which the power to regulate COM
merce possessed by Congress applied
and the resulting right to fix in case
of disagreement and dispute q stand

March 2S.--For the first time since the

The village was BoyelIes. The armor-

the Germans. The enemy fled pre-
cipitately, not having expected more
than clash with small advance forces.
The Germans had laid a trap at Boy
Giles for what they supposed would be
accommodating guard of the British
advance. But they were overwhelmed
by the strength of the British forces
no less than by surprise at the bring
ing into action of the armored cars.
Field Marshal Haig's men today held

RECRUITING HEAVY
IN ARMY AND NAVY

Chicago, March 2S.-Army and navy
recruiting gained considerable impetus
today, and from indications yester-
days record, which was the highest
of the year, will be excelled. Yester-
day hundred volunteers applied for
enlistment. Sixty were accepted. This
number, however, does not include
men who were accepted for the avia-
ton or submarine service or for the
officers reserve corps.
The majority of the men applying
for enlistment in the regular army
were service men, having been in the
Spanish American war or stationed
along the border or at Vera Cruz.
Recruiting officers and patriotic or
ganizations were today resorting to
various means of stirring up a mar
tial spirit. Motor cars carrying re-
cruiting officers and soldiers did ad-
vertising work through the loop. High
school cadets, lead by bands, paraded
and naval reserves from the Great
Lakes training camp were stationed at
the various recruiting headquarters or
distributing literature at the elevated
stations and transfer corners.

Congress May Be Asked to
Provide for Increasing the
Militia to War Footing Of
100000 Talk of Call for
Volunteers.

Washington, March 2s.-President
Wilson has taken all the steps within
his power to bring the navy to its
maximum man strength for the pres
emit. He may still ask congress that
1t be raised to 10000 men.
He still has several ways open
whereby he can bring the land forces
TO greater strength, though specula-
ton is that he will get his main in
crease by asking for volunteers or by
having congress pass compulsory
training law. The means whereby the
larger army could be obtained are:
Increase of the militia from
10000 men to full war strength
$50, 600.
Increase of the army from 12o,-
900 to war ,o00-by
bringing company units to their
entire quota.
Increase Of the army by adding
at once all the annual increments
designated by tho last army bill.
This would give 275,oo0 in all.
Call for volunteers.
Have congress pass universal
service measure which would
probably be shaped as to furnish
100000 youths.
PREPARE FOR BITTER STRUGGLE
Just what is in the presidents mind
is not known. Military men say,
however, that as plans are now shap-
ing, the war department is considering
It's enlargement measures on the idea
that the bitterest struggle this nation
has ever known, may be our part"
These men say the country ought
not to be misguided in its view that
real war-and not merely police work
must sooner or later be the portion
of the big force which will probably be
demanded of congress next week.
The question of army recruiting is
kept in the back ground of public at
tention for the moment, so that the
navy may be brought to full strength.
Nothing must hamper getting the full
navy strength, and getting it now, au-
thorities say.

NO DANGER TO THE
UNITED STATES IN
MEXICAN SITUATION

Washington. March 2S.-While real

mans gathering in Mexico, authorities
declared today the government is pre-
pared adequately to cope with the sit
uation.
Sporadic outbreaks and border raids
are the most to be guarded against In
dications are against any real military
danger.
Reports to the government show
conclusively that a great many Ger
mans have been and still are fleeing
to Mexico. Reports indicate concen-
tration at Torreon. But all this flight
does not mean that they are preparing
to figh this country, many are fleeing
in fear of internment.
Even If the Germans do stir ur
trouble in Mexico, the scope of their
activities and OF the Mexican army
itself, will not be sufficient, in mill
tary mems opinion, to be very serious
Insofar as authorities reveal, there is
no disposition on General Carranza's
