ARMY GAME NOTES

Altho he is only an adopted son,
all Kansas today is proud IF Potsy
Clark, the former K. U. coach whose
brilliant work was responsible for the
to victory of the Camp Funston
boys over the navy team at Kansas
City last Saturday.
Clark shone with the brilliance he
always displayed when a star at 1lli-
nois. Always on his toes, he was as
quick as a streak of light to find
a hole and in the second period 1t
was his headwork that enabled him
to shoot off for the 3y-yard gain that
made it possible for him to go over a
few minutes later 70" the only touch
down of the game.
Another Kansan showed mighty

Captain Lindsay, of K. U, played the
other half with Clark and in addition
to his line work was ere with the
educated toe whenever it was needed.
The work of both the army and
the navy team refuted the argument
that you do not see the same football
in the services the colleges and uni
versities put on exhibition Whatever
the players lacked in youth they made
up in headwork and in neatly exc
was no lack of speed and one pretty
feature of the game was the absence
of fumbling.
Three French officers sat with Cen
eral Wood thruout the game, but it
was evident the grid sport was too
new to them for their enthusiasm to
get into action.
One of the distinctive stars of the
navy was Pat Smith, old Michigan
captain, who was a roommate of
Francis Willard, of Topeka, at Ann
Arbor, and who was one of Yost's
greatest pupils. Smith was apparent
ly fighting as hard at the end of the
final period as at the kickoff and
another man like him might have
given the navy the game.
One of the outstanding features of
the game was the stamina and the
physical fitness of the Funston men.
They seemed to stand the hard grind
much better than the Great Lakes
warriors and did not have to take
out time or use the substitutes the
navy used. Captain Wilmington GER
tainly had his eleven in fine physical
fettle.

NO REFORM COMES FROM ABOVE

No great political improvement, no
great reform, either legislative or
executive, has ever been originated in
any country by its rulers.
The first suggesters Of such steps
have invariably been bold and able
thinkers, who would discern the abuse,
denounce it,, and point out how it is
to be remedied.
But long after that is done, even the
most enlightened governments con-
tinue to uphold the abuse and reject
the remedy.
At length, II circumstances are IA
vorable, the pressure from without be-
comes so strong, that the government
is obliged to give way; and the re-
form being accomplished, the people
are expected to admire the wisdom Of
their rulers by whom all Of this has
been done.-Buckle, History Of Civili-
zation.

CONSCIENTIOUS SCRUPLES.

The non-union man, by accepting
lower wages and longer hours, sets up
the standard of living for the entire
craft. He may degrade the men who
required years of hard work to bring
themselves up to their present social
and economic level.
True, it may be said, he is not de-
grading the workingmen. That may
be so, for the present. The time may
come. however, when the workingmen
of his craft may have grievance
which will require united protest
against the unfair treatment of the
employer. Outside of the organiza-
ton, that non-union man may become
a menace to the interests of all his fell
low workers, even tho he is receiving
union wages and working union hours.
He may be, and in his disorganized
state usually is, used against his fell
low workers. Yet he is all the time
receiving the benefit of the years of
sacrifice and hardship of his fellow
workmen, without assuming any of the
obligations of the union. He is quite
willing to have others fight his battles,
without subjecting himself to the
perils of the warfare, and ia nearly all
cases on record his Conscientious

APPLIES TO UNCRowNED KINGS

men fly like birds, ten kings will go to
war against one another" II has
happened, in n way; but If it had
happened literally instead Of under the
very liberal Interpretation the world
has witnessed it would have been
much better. For the ten kings went
to war against each other in the most
discreet manner imnginable-b send
ing out their subjects to do the fight
ing. II the kings who want to go to
war would shoulder n gun and go out
against each other. leaving the rest of
humanity at home to go about its
important business of peace, it would
be very well Enthusiastically would
it be well IL the kings destroyed each

ORGANIZED LABOR OF AMERICA IN FIGHT TO PUT AN END
TOINDUSIRIAL WASTAGE AND BETTER THE LIVES OF MEN
By FRANK L. MORRISON.
Secretary American federation of Labor.

1t is impossible to record funda-
mental gains during the past year
because of organized labor's agi-
tation or to individualize probable
gains during the year to come,
The best we can do is to observe
tendencies. Prominent among
these is the workers seizure of the
cry for preparedness to empha-
size a danger in industry more
deadly than battlefieldS.
Government statistics show that
10000 men are annually killed and
100000 are annually injured for a
period of four weeks or over

year there are over 100000 cases

nation. Enough to equip the larg-
est army and navy in the world
and then have a balance sufficient
to pay the tuition of every boy
now in college.
A system of national prepared
ness that does not include recog-
milton of this frightful and pre-
ventable wastage is the prepared
ness urged by big business.
Another element among en-
ployers who talk of the scarcity of
of labor does so to entice a suffi-
cient number of idle workers to
their factory gates as a menace to
those employed and who are liable
to demand better conditions. These
employers oppose restriction of
immigration because restriction
will defeat their policy of having
two or more men for every job.
Another tendency is the grow
ing opposition to labor injunctions.

it has gone far enough to assure the
toilers their rights. Just methods for
insuring justice to workers are the
only effective means by which their
united cooperation can be secured
for the war and by which the men,

archy can be removed.
The members of organized labor

On this day dedicated to Labor,
the thoughts of all workers may well
be directed to this problem which in

1t is a problem that is of fundamen-

The new world relations which La
Dor hopes to create through the in

affairs of life the world over.

Problems growing out of the work
are problems that affect the lives of
workers. They are therefore important
to our nation and government not only
from the standpoint of material effect
iveness but of ideals. A government
fighting for freedom and democracy
abroad must establish industrial justice
in war production at home. For work
ers are serving the cause just as much as
soldiers in the trenches-though not so
conspicuously or with such hazard.
The basis upon which our Republic
should ask it's workers to give service is
adequate representation of all agencies
determining government plans and
methods of carrying them into effect.

girding itself for battle.
For neary three years the struggle
had been waged before our nation
was drawn in-but our participation
was made inevitable not only by the
manifold inter-relatiOns between
nations but by the nature of the
principles involved. AS between
democratic freedom and bureau

No organization within the United
States has had more correct under
standing of the issues and the dam

more important in enabling the ma

A nation preparing for war must
