SAD NEWS RECEIVED

Phil ADrahams received the sad intelligence yesterday that his little grand daughter, Gertrude Wright had passed away on Saturday night in New York city. Her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Wright reside in Edmon- ton, Alberta, and were on visit in New York. It is not known what siled the little girl but her passing must have been sudden as MT. Abra- hams has had no intimatioD or her sickness before.
 The child is well remembered here as she visited last summer with her parents and was noted for her sweet disposition and winning ways. MT. Abrahams has the sympathy of many friends in his sorrow.

EDITORIAL
HUNS MUST BE WHIPPED

The trouble with discussing the Germsn peace offer, or any other mada by the two burglar govern ments we are fighting, is that any words, promises and treaties that Germany and Austria make are not worth az much as a counterfeit nickel. Any one who attaches the slightest value to any agreement they moke is too innocent a lamb to live in this wicked world.
 When the troops have occupied 8 good slice of German territory, then will be time to discuss peace terms. Then the allies can sit down for a brief season and tell the kais- CT this territory will be held until such time as he makes due repara- tion for his infamous deeds.
 Then the kaiser might make a real peace offer. Any talk of peace previous to that time leads people to let up a little on those continuous sacrifices that are necessary to main tain q high scale of military and mechanical effort.
 No doubt the war lords have put out this peace offer at time when they think 1t will hurt the sale of Liberty bonds. There are some people who will frame as all excuse for not buying bonds, that peace will scon be under discussion, and they will not need to come across SO heavily as before.
 This is not the case. There will be no reace until the Germans are thoroughly licked and have final ly got it into their heads that startius wars is not a business pro position. Otherwise we will have another war to pay for within few years. It is cheaper to pay the bill all at once. @l

BACK TO ENGLAND
BRITISH LABOR MISSION COM
PLETES TOUR OF L. S.
Pleased With Reception and Impressed
With Patriotism of Workers; Given
Luncheon by Officers \. F. of L.

The British labor commission, which
has toured America under the direc-
ton of the American Federation of
Labor, were rendered a lunch at
Washington, d. c., on their departure
for home by the advisory commission
of the council of national defense. The
event was in keeping with the dem
ocratic spirit, and was attended by
members of the cabinet, the military,
trade unionists and other civilians.
President Gompers, acting as mem
ber of the advisory commission,
served as toastmaster. Short talks
were made by Secretary of the In
terror Lane, Secretary of Labor Will
son and the Britishers-W. A. Apple
ton, Charles Duncan, Joshua Butter
worth and William Moses.
The visitors, who have been in this
country several weeks, referred to the
increasing war sentiment, as the one
issue involved is better understood.
They said that the size of this coun-
try would make 1T impossible for
Americans to have the feeling that
exists in their SMALL. thickly popu-
lated country, where one out of near
" every seven inhabitants is under
arms.
In speaking of women labor, it was
stated that there can be no comparl-
son with conditions in America and
England. In the latter country, with
AZ 900 900 population, there are be
tween 5000 900 and 1000 900 men in
the military service. This has caused
the employment of about 100000
women. With proper organization,
they said, it should not be necessary
to employ women in America in the
numbers demanded until this country
has between 100000 and 20,000,000
under arms.

that the victory of the drys was favor

Gated in thA Delaware river district.
The steel ships are far outnumbering
the wooden ones, with the result that
metal tradesmen are getting almost
complete control of the business.
Wage Adjustment Board.
Except for the wooden ship con-
struction in the South and to some
degree on the Pacific coast, the car
pcnters are employed in the construc-
ton of shipyards. Their total num-
Der is said to be about 10 per cent Of
the metal trades workers in the ship
yard and shipbuilding industry.
So far as known, President Wilson
does not intend to turn over to the
labor administrator, when one is ap-
pointed. the duties of the shipyard la
Dor adjustment board, which has made
the wage awards for the various dis
tricts. Neither will this work be taken
in hand by the national war labor
board, except as n last resort.
Travelling in a Circle.
"The system of wage awards which
has thus far prevailed has not been
satisfactory" said O'Connell, "be-
cause of the differentials between va
rious classes Of work and the attempt
to allow for different local condi-
tions that have affected wage rates
in the past. Our men want n national
standard rate established, that can
be depended upon for while at least.
AS it is, we never get around the
circle in wage adjustment before it
is necessary to commence all over
again"
According to the carpenters, they
were recently approached by agents
of the United States Steel Corpora
tion with an offer of union agree
ment for shipyard work, including n
great deal of work on ships, il they
would concede the question of hours.
The carpenters refused to take any,
thing less favorable than the eight
hour day. Thereupon, according to
this account, the steel trust gave up
the idea, and went back TO the old
basis.
Win on Their Merits.
The department of justice announces
that under the new sabotage act IL
is going to vigorously prosecute all
persons who interfere with produc-
tion Of things needed for the war
provided, of course, that the hinder
ing of production is not simply incl
dental to trade union activities. This
legislation is aimed chiefly at the l..
w. W., and is calculated to drive large
numbers OF men who have had n
casual acquaintance with that organ
ization TO form labor unions under
the A. +. of l.. They will have every
chance, under the national war labor
board, to win their immediate indus
trial demands on the merits Of those,

BULLETIN EDITOR GIVEN DINNER ON
RETURN FROM NEW YORK CAMPAIGN
Representative Labor Recital of Speaking Tour and
Remarkable No-Lcense Election; F. Thum Printer
Phlanthropist and Former City Commissioner, -
Acts Host Master of Ceremonies.

Occasionally a labor editor gains
honor in his home town, but this is so
unusual as to form an exception to the
rule. Having returned safely from a
three weeks campaign against the sa-
loon in New York state, where he
spoke under auspices of the "dry"
committees and Trade Union Dry
Leagues, Clint C. Houston, editor
of The Denver Labor Bulletin, was
given complimentary dinner last Sat
dining rooms on the main floor of the
Albany hotel. Otto F. Thum, former
commissioner of property in the mu-
nicipal government and the first pres
ident of the Colorado State Fedora
ton of Labor, was host and master
of ceremonies. A number of promi-
nent labor officials were present as
guests to ,partake of the good things
to eat.and to hear a labor editor tell
of his drive against booze in the East
Given Patriotic Flavor.
1t was really remarkable gath
ering, nearly all branches of organized
labor in Denver being represented
around the banquet board. The tables
were decorated with flags of America,
Great Britain and France, giving a
patriotic atmosphere, which was aug
mented by each one present wearing
third Liberty loan button.
The following toast was proposed
as those present stood and drank to
it in the pure water that flows from
the Rocky mountains.
ITO our brave American boys who
have for the time submerged their
personality and individuality into the
fn hn
acy of great and noble idea May
they ever cleave to the cause of right
and justice and soon return to their
tiresides a victorious host"
Mr.. Thum, the host, in introducing
the guest of the occasion, said that a
labor editor who had so much conf
dence in his own editorials and news
articles that he travelled nearly two
thirds of the way across the conti-
nent to back them up with three and
four speeches a day, deserved some
special recognition, hence he had de-
cided to give dinner party.
Vocal Organs Work Well.
tNiitor Houston, having grown ac-
customed to speak without a time
limit while in New York, occupied an
hour in reciting the high points of
his experiences, in which he found that
many organized workers of the East,
as in the West and South, are no
longer content to be advertised as an
adjunct of the liquor traffic
"The wave of saloon prohibition is
spreading thruout all sections of the
East" declared the speaker, "as evil
denced by twenty prominent cities in
New York state voting no-license at
the first opportunity given to pass
judgment upon the liduor traffic. Ap-
proval of the national prohibition

Continued from Pnge one
the whole course of this war. Among
the men now closely in touch with
war work, who at the same time COM
mand the respect of the labor move
ment, there are half dozen good
men who could handle this job. The
name heard most often among labor
men here is that of Victor A. Olander
of Chicago, secretary of the Illinois
Federation of Labor, and n member
of the national war labor board. He
is bigger than the job; there would be
no glory in his getting the appoint
ment. He is one of the very few
men who have the respect and sup
port of all elements in the A. F. of L..
Labor Board in Session.
The national war labor board meets
here again on Monday, to hear the
case of the Birmingham steel mill
strikers, which it took formally under
consideration week ago. During
this weeks sessions it will probably
Law out a program of dealing with n
series of other strikes and disputes,
and it will create the necessary sub
committees and local machinery for
settling disputes in all sections of the
country. Thus far the board has
moved very slowly; its members have
had too many other duties to look
after, so that the meetings have been
brief and far between. Now it is
ready to get down to business.
Already the commercial telegra-
pliers have adopted the set of princl-
pies announced by this government
board as their terms of settlement
of their dispute with the telegraph
companies. The movement toward es-
tablishing a national industrial mini
mum of pay and conditions is started.
Effort to Standardize Wages.
The presidents of the various in
ternational unions whose members
are engaged in shipbuilding, are to
meet here on Tuesday, with the ship
ping board and other officials, to try
to bring about the national standard
wage for shipyard mechanics that the
men in the railroad shops expect to
get for their work. Roughly, this
demand is for So wage for eight
hours work.
The carpenters still remain outside
the agreement, and stand pat on their
demand for direct union agreement
and representation of their union on
any board affecting their work. They
say that the metal trades unions, by
now rejecting the district system of
adjusting wages, has been forced to
come to what the carpenters have all
along stood for.
According to President O'Connell of
the metal trades department of the
A. F. of L., there are now more than
100000 metal tradesmen in the ship
yards, and within three months the
number will be near 100000. OF the

FEDERATION YEARBOOK FAKE
Editorial in Pueblo Labor Advocate.

By referendum members vote or
ganizations affiliated with the State
Federation of Labor have decided to
resume the publication of the Fedora
tion Yearbook. / said resume, when
it should have been authorize. Altho
money has been collected for the pur-
pose, no year book has ever been is
sued by the Federation and the money
SO collected has never been accounted
for and has presumably gone into the
pockets of those who promoted the
graft.
The publication of a yearbook by
the Federation may be of some finan-
cial benefit, but it will be absolutely
worthless to the advertiser. 1t will
licitor an opportunity to rake in many
