Exemptions May Be Liberal.

Then there will be work for tribunals in
deciding cases of exemption II these
tribunals are constructed in accordance
with previous English practice they could
obstruct or wreck the whole scheme, since
they might grant wholesale exemptions.
Even under new system it will consume
some time. 1t is extremely unlikely that
the Sim Feiners will apply for exemp-
tion or submit themselves to any tr1-
bunals.
They are more likely to stand pat
and refuse to go until they are fetched.
1t will be several weeks before that
stage is reached and the intervening
time viii no doubt be occupied in or
ganixing resistance. The bishops look
forward to what they call resort to
desperate courses and to what Card
inal Logue calls chaos, but there has
been talk of passive obstruction de-
vices which might not involve actual
physical conflicts.
Meanwhile the government will have
carried the man-power bill long before

stances. Englishmen Of all ages up to

DUBLIN. April II tdelayed)-The
frst result of the government proposal
60 apply CONSUMPTION to Ireland has
been to unite all the various sections OF
the nationalists In opposition, each com
peting with the others in expressing
hostility to it. 1t is curious to see how
many men with sons and brothers in
the army are equally determined with
the Sim Feiners that the Irish shall not
be compelled to do what so many OF
the best Irishmen have been proud to
do voluntarily.
This fact does not imply that there
has been a change in Irish feeling
about the war. The great majority OF
Irishmen indorse Joseph Deylin's re-
peated declarations that the war is a
Just war for human liberties and
against the worst despotism the world
has ever known" but the feeling is uni
versal among nationaiists that con-
scriptiou should be imposed only by
nationalist government, and that the
cabinet ought not TO do in Ireland what
it would not do in Australia or South
Africa

Different in America.

As Capt Redmond pointed out the con-
scription of lrishmen In America, where
they are free citizens of a free state, is
not the same thing as conscription OF
Irishmen in Ireland by external authority.
There is a good deal of speculation as to
how far the government means to carry
out it's purpose. When allowance is made
for the large numbers OF men engaged.
especially in Ulster, in shipbuiiding and
mailing linen for aeroplanes. as well as
for men necessary to carry out the
greatly increased food production planned
by the department Of agriculture, the
number of men available for the army
cannot be very great.
II all opposition to conscription broke
down it might amount to 10000 men at
the most and it would be nearly year
before they could be trained and ready
for action. In England the way is paved
for conscription by national register
There is no register in Ireland, and the
first work done must be compilation Of
lists However urgently the work is
undertaken. it must take weeks and pos
sibly months. When the lists are ready an
order in council applying conscrpton
may be issued.

ACCIDENTS DECREASE

Washington. - The United States
shipping board denies stories to the
effect that more men are being killed
and injured in the trenches. 1t is
declared that this is "a new and in
sidious form of German propaganda" Z"
The board shows that the Hog island
ship yard near Philadelphia, employ
ing an average force of 20,497 during
the month of May, had 107 accidents,
which gives a frequency rate of 6, as
compared to the rate of 21.8 for the
period from 1912 to 1916. The latter
figures are taken from the depart
ment of labor statistics, which show
that the accident rate in ship yards
from 1912 to 1916 were approximate
ly 21.8 for every 1000 men employed.
The board says that the Hog island
ship yards, which have been built and
organized from nothing, seem to be
fair example of the attention which
is being given accident prevention.
1t is stated that the percentage of
accidents is constantly decreasing
and a prediction is made that within
the next few months, the yards will
be showing a lower rate than the
most favored private industrial insti-
tuition.

Virginia, Minn.-The state fedora
tion of labor has asked state officials
to stop women on street cars working
in this state 10 and IL hours day.
The convention denounced an "arbi-
tration" policy of state officials and
pledged it's adherence to the presi-
dents proclamation and rulings by
the national war labor boardd.
Other declarations were: Against
the establishment of a public utilities
commission, favor woman suffrage
and old age pensions, favor free edu-
cation and rehabilitation of injured
industrial workers as we'll as soldiers
and sailors, indorse free medical,
surgical and dental treatment for
school children and favor amendment

LABOR DAY
WILL BE OBSERVED ON GRAND
SCALE THIS YEAR
The Committee is Already at Work
Preparing a Program of New
Amusements Stunts

Labor Day will be celebrated by the
thousands of organized workers in
Newark on greater and grander
scale, if possible, than at any former
time. This was the decision arrived
at by the Trades and Labor Assembly
at the meeting last Sunday morning.
1t was also decided that the celebra-
tion will be held on and about the
public square.
The committee, consisting of L. o.
Sattler, julius Juch, Jack Cantwell,
]. H. Sharritt, VIM. Deininger, Paul
Ziegfeld, w. r. Jones, VIM. Schlin-
german and Jesse Shimmel is already
at work formulating plans and ar
ranging program of attractions
which will be we'll worth travelling
miles to witness. This program will
be published later.
The days festivities will be inau-
gurated with monster parade of the
many local unions of the city, inter-
spersed with numerous bands and
gorgeous floats and many novel and
attractive features. Of course the
great and only Buckeye Band, headed
by Col. "Bob" Dold, drum major, par
excellence, will be one of the attrac-
tions.
Final and complete arrangements
have, of course, not yet been COM
pleted, but with the matter in the
hands of the hustling and competent
committee above named it is an as
sured fact that the day will be fitting
ly and royalty celebrated.

COMPENSATION UPHELD

Cheyenne, ,Wyo.-The state supreme
court has ruled that the Wyoming
workmen's compensation law is con-
stitutional The court said:
"This matter is one of great inn
portance to the people of this state,
a large portion of the working popu-
lation and of the employers of labor
coming under the provisions of the
act and the industrial accident or in
surance fund in the state treasury at
the close of business June 80, 1918, a
fund amounting to more than $536, 900.
The laborers now having become ac-
customed to the methods of proce-
dure under this new system and the
machinery of the courts Hereunder
now working smoothly and uniformly
it would be a great disturbance of
conditions and result in endless con-
fusion to declare this statute invalid
and therefore there is greater empha-
sis to be placed on the rule hereto
fore followed by this and other courts,
that a statute will never be declared
void unless the nullity and invalidity
of the act are placed, in the judgment
of the court, beyond reasonable
doubt"

DISABLED Do USEFUL WORK

Washington.-The war department
announces that it is against its policy
to accept the offer Of many we'll

pied soldiers into their service as
watchmen, messengers and in posi-
tions of similar character.
"From the time wounded soldier

stated, che is encouraged to under
stand that the seriousness of his
wounds will not render him worthless
for useful work. The work of in
structing him both physically and
mentally is carried on simultaneously.
"At the present time there are
many soldiers in army hospitals in
this country who have been crippled.
In many cases these men are receiv-
ing the preliminary training which
will be finished by civil boards author
lied to continue the work begun by
the surgeon general. 1t is hoped that
business men in general will accept
these trained men on an equal foot
ing with men who have not been
crippled. These men will receive a
training which will make them COM
petent in the trade or profession
which they elect to follow"

CHILD LABOR RULE WRONG

Madison, Wis.-The editor of the
Capital Times does not mince matters
in his opposition to the decision of
the Unites States supreme court which
invalidated the federal child labor
law.
"The greatest obstacle in the pro-
gress of democracy in this country"
says the editor, "has been the right,
arrogated to itself by the supreme
court, to stay the wishes of the peo-
pie, spoken through their chosen rep
resentatives. Here is doctrine that
enables seven or eight men, appointed
for life and totally out of the reach
of the people, to say that the men
chosen by the people cannot act for
the people.
The people of this country were
back of the law aimed to protect the
children of the south from the tradi-
tional exploitation of southern en-
ployers. The law goes into effect.
But no-the supreme court says we
can't have such law because of some
musty precedents laid down by some
body long since dead and buried. And
even the supreme court itself couldn't
agree on the question and handed
down a decision on which the court
was practically evenly divided.
"And so, because one judge guess
ed differently than the other judges,
We go back to the old system-more
children will be sent to early graves
and sacrificed on the altar of greed
because an instrument of democracy
has been nullified by an instru
ment of autocracy taken to itself by
the supreme court"

PROPOSED RAISE ON GAS RATE
DISCUSSED BY SHELBY GLOBE

The following article of the gas
company's forced raise in rates to
consumers appeared in the Shelby
Globe on July 20:
patrons of the Logan Natural Gas
& Fuel company, were notified of
16 per cent raise in the price of gas
and considering conditions the vast
majority of the company's patrons
are inclined to believe that the gas
company has been very fair with
them. The fact of the matter is
Shelby people feel that the company
has treated them very fair for
years. The customers recall that
during six months of 1903-1904 dur
ing the winter months, the company
charged them 25 cents per 1000 cubic
feet, when their franchise permitted
them to charge 80 and 33 cents. In
1912, when the rate ordinance ex-
pired the company did not ask for
an advance in rate more than a mini
mum charge equal to 1000 feet. Even
after that concession was granted the
company December 26, 1912, the city
solicitor was advised by the company
that they would annul that charge
until some future date, and it never
was put into effect under that ordi-
nance.
"The slight raise of the present
schedule representing 16 per cent, is
met with comment from various
angles due to the fairness of the COM
pany IN former years. The overhead
expense of the gas company in ma
terial most needed in promoting and
developing gas fields has increased
101 per cent. And so far as the Globe
man can ascertain, the majority of
our people feel that the company has
been very fair and just in the slight
advance they have made" -

B. & o. TEAM LOSES SEE-SAW
AT WEHRLE PARK
The All Stars Win Holly Contested
Game Last Sunday by
Small Margin
By John Bush

Last Sundays game, though thrill
ling at times, was not in any sense
the high-class ball Newark fans have
been enjoying at Wehrle park this
season.
Though replete with hard clean
hitting and fast fielding, the B. & o.
team did not play the game they are
capable of. Jones at short and Smith
at third had an off day, and their
misplays and errors were most costly.
Thomas, who is a proficient and re-
liable pitcher, was not working in
his usual good form, and this with
the lack of the vim and dash which
is characteristic of the team, made
victory possible for Mr.. Noblicks and
his All-Star team, made up of numer-
Gus capable players of the city, and
whose playing, aside from Beeney at
third, was clean and fast.
The fielding feature of the game
was Differs assist from deep right
field to first, throwing out the run
ner on what would have been a clean
hit 80 out of 100 times.
The batting honors were carried
away by j. Dennison, the B. & O..
teams second sacker.. A single,
double and triple out of as many
times at bat is as many swats as
Tyrus, the Georgia peach, ever col
lected. This, along with five put
outs, one assist and two runs scored
was a fair days work for Joe.

u. S. LABOR BUREAU

Westinghouse Hamilton has
severed his connection with the
American Federation of Labor after
Is years of service as legislative rep
resentative and in other capacities.
He will be chief of new bureau in
the department of labor, created un-
der authority of the act which esta-
blished the department of labor, ito
improve the working conditions of
the wage earners of the United
States"
More specifically the duties of this
service will be: To examine into the
matter of working conditions in the
war industries; to determine the stan
dards as to conditions which should
be maintained in the war industries;
to adopt rules embodying such stan
dards and explaining them; to de-
termine the best means for securing
the adoption and maintenance of such
standards and to cooperate with state
authorities for the above purposes.
The various states provide certain
standards for working conditions, but
these laws are not uniform and are
not altogether adapted to the i'm
portant war industries. The new
bureau will investigate these condi-
tions and make it possible for the
government to provide in it's contracts
for such new standards as may be
necessary.

DEPARTMENT MOVES

Washington-Offices ofthe A. F.
of l.. railway employees department
have been moved from st. Louis, Mo-,
to the A. F. of l.. building, this city.
This action was taken as the result
of the following resolution adopted
by the departments executive council:
"Due to the fact that the govern
ment is in control of practically all
railroads in the United States and
that practically all matters affecting
the membership of the organizations
affiliated with the railway employees
department, employed on railroads
are handled from Washington, D. c.,
and to the end that the membership
can be more efficiently and speedily
informed on matters of interest to
them, be it decided that the office of
the railway employees department be
moved to Washington, D. c., tempo
rarily."
The A. F. of l.. building now houses
its five departments-bu building trades,
metal trades, mining, railway en-
ployes and union label trades.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1918-08-02

When a union man buys goods
without the union label he is doing
just what he condemns employers for
oing-employing non-union labor.
When the members of unions fully
appreciate this fact the labor move
ment will advance much more rapid
ly, working conditions will improve
and life be made worth living. These
are worthy objects and easily achiev-
ed. Demand the union label.
