msterials, white seeking 70 preserve
equitable working conditions. Is evil
deneed by the taking over Of . manu-
featuring plant simultaneously with
tic announcement to the Bridgeport
strikers. In that ease the corporation
refused to abide by IN award that it
regarded as imposing unacceptable
conditions upon It. The United States
promptly took possession Of the plant
and will operate it under the terms Of
the award, to the end Of securing .
maximum product.
This action should put an end to
munitions strikes. Tho men engaged
upon essential tasks have full warning
from the Presidents decision that they
must work or fight. They must bear
their share Of the war burden along
with the men who have gone to France
and those who are still to 90. # they
will not work under conditions that
are made a fair as it is possible to
provide, they must take their places in
the ranks, or, if beyond the ages Of
the sslective draft or physically dis
qualified, remain idle for at least a
year. It is virtually assured that they
will work, for the sentiment Of the
country is strongly against idleness
and in the fullest support Of the Presi'
dents action.

Another French Attack.

Marshal Foch continues. Scarcely
has the fighting in the st. Mihiel "a
ient slackened with the accomplish.
mont of the purpose sought there than
French troops launch a new attack in
the region between La Fere and the
Aisne, driving doubtless toward 4aon.
The magnitude Of this fresh offensive
the fourth Of the series inaugurated
July Isis not yet disclosed, but it
appears to be of major character. It
is aimed at the bend of the German
line, the center Of the great salient
held by the invaders in France. Evil
IDENTIFY the allied commander-in-chief
does not regard the situation as "sta-
bilized." His selection Of the area Of
assault may have been due to with
drawals Of German troops to aid the
harassed divisions in Lorraine. The
action is possibly, on the other hand,
merely resumption Of the Picardy
offensive, the French army having been
brought up to its new front during
the days of comparative inaction fol-
lowing the successful drives around
the TANKS of the st. Gobain bastion.
The German line here is strong. But
if it is broken or materially bent the
whole enemy position from Cambria,
possibly even from Ypres, to Rheims is
imperiled. Continuation of the ac-
ton begun this morning cannot fail
to be harassing to the enemy and will
probably be productive of material
gains. It is in continuation of the
policy Of incessant assault which is
calculated to keep the Germans con
the jump" without chance for re-
organization.

The Minimum Wage Bill.

The Minimum Wage Bill.
By vote Of three to one the Senate
yesterday passed the District minimum
wage bill already approved by the
House, and the bill, which has the
warm Endorsement Of both employers
and workers, goes to the President for
signature and will doubtless soon be-
come a law. This measure is designed
to establish a method Of minimum
wage fixing that will prevent discrimi-
nations and secure greater uniformity.
For each particular line Of occupation
q board will be created to name the
lowest wage at which workers may DO
employed. These standards are sub
jet to change from time to time in
the shifting Of conditions. Upon the
boards both sides will be represented.
This measure is particularly impor-
tant In present conditions. II tends
to prevent unfair competition for labor
between employers in the same line.
The fact that it was warmly Endorsed
by the business men of this city
through their representative organiza-
ton indicates that it is viewed as an
equitable process. In the hearings be-
fore committees facts ware disclosed

The Cabinet.

Secretary Lane remains in the cabi-
net. The race for the Governorship
Of California did not tempt him. he
fills his present place ably and use
fully in a high degree. His record
in the Interior Department has been
acceptable both to his chief and
to the country. Opportunity for
still more important service there may
come in the next two years; and should
the President get third term the Sec
rotary may also. Certainly in six
years peace will be restored, and when
it is restored, the Office that Mr.. Lane
now fills will take on increased value.
The cabinet holds together we'll.
Only three changes have taken place in
five years. A vacancy occurring on
tho Supreme bench, the President
transferred Attorney General Mercy
nolds.
Mr.. Bryan's retirement was not alto
gether a surprise. It had been appar-
ent fer some time that he was not
comfortable in his post. The war in
Europe had brought many new ques-
tons up, and they were not in line
with his equipment. He had not stud
led international law or diplomacy as
he had domestic questions. Hence,
when domestic questions, either be-
cause they had been settled, or were
now subordinated by the war, passed
out Of the equation, he passed out of
Office.
Judge Garrison's retirement was the
result of disagreement with the
President about the organization Of a
larger Army. Until then he had work
ed we'll with his chief; and he was
headed in the right direction when he
retired. Had he remained, he would
probably have been in full sympathy
with and supported what has since been
done toward bringing the Army up to
the full requirements imposed by the
war.
The President filled the three va
cancics with men who have given him
complete support in his policies. Mr..
Gregory in the Department Of Justice,
Mr.. Lansing in the State Department,
and Mr. Baker in the War Department,
have met his lamentations. and "a men,
bers Of his official family shaken down
we'll with their fellow members.
There is no gossip Of any change i'm
pending outside Of the suggestion Of
the transfer of Mr.. Lansing to Lon
don-a suggestion which has not re-
ceived serious attention. As now con-
stituted, the cabinet is most distinctly
the Presidents own selection, and
seems likely to serve him to. the end
Of his present term.

The Presidents Strike Decision

President Wilson's rebuke to the
=, Bridgeport strikers and his decision
that they must return to work or be
~ barred for a year from all employ
ment in war industries and be at the
same time subject to the selective draft
cannot fail to have q beneficial effect.
This action is heartily approved by
.-,labor leaders. 1t has the emphatic in
-dorsement Of the people of, the coun-
try. It is one Of the most important
moves in the work Of waging war yet
made by this government.
The position Of the Bridgeport
strikers was without the slightest JUS
tifcation. The men had submitted
their case to arbitration, and when the
award was made 90 per cent Of them
accepted it and returned to work, 10
Per cent refusing to abide by the de-
eision. It was these 10 per cent to
whom the President addressed his ul-
timatum, and who must now return to
their tasks or be subject to cab for
military duty, with the penalty mean
while Of being barred from industrial
employment
Any man who In these times refuses

advancement Of the war program of
