the Jewish battsEon in the British
army.

the Jewish battalion Of the Midd!ese&
Regiment. which unit is composed en-
tirely of Jews. The men Of this SeEi-

NATIONAL WAR LABOR BOARD
ADJUSTS TWO DISPUTES

CHICAGO, June 6.-Two acute
labor controversies were settled by the
National War Labor board at it's final
session in Chicago. These were a dis
pute between 5000 union carpenters
employed in two Detroit shipyards,
the Detroit shipbui1ding company and
the Great Lakes Engineering COM
pany, and another of 5000 men en-
rloyed in machine shops at Waynes-
boro. Pa. =
Although the Detroit controversy
non1inally affected only 5000 men,
its actual effect, it was stated later,
was to fix the wage status of all car
penters in Detroit. The men had de-
handed IS cents per hour, as against
Il present scale ranging from 40 to
65 cents an hour. The compromise,
agreed to by both sides, fixed the scale
at. 20 cents per hour. The Waynes-
boro trouble was settled by telegraph.
Chicago molders, $500 Of whom
have been out for about week, had
tn cir grievances taken up by a Sec
ton of the board, consisting of NJ. H.
Rice and +. A. Rickert. No decision
was eached.

Some idea of how effective the re-
port is may be gathered from the fact
that, although the militarists had in
advance a good majority of the legis-
lature, the members were so impress
ed by the unanimous adverse report
Of the commission that they refused to
pass the compulsory military bills
which had been slated for passage.
The most that the jingoes could wiring
from the legislature was a permissive
act, giving the state board of educa-
ton the power to install military
training when it SO desires. AS the
state board of education was known
to endorse the position taken by the
commission, this was purely a verbal
sop. The board has thus far refused
to avail itself of the permission so
gratuitously presented. Any town or
city that wants military training in
it's high schools can have it if a ma
jority of the citizens at school cleo
ton vote in favor of it. But no.
otherwise.

COAL OUTPUT MUST Be
INCREASED 100000 TONS

PHILADELPHIA, June 6.-The pro-
duction of coal in the United States
for the year beginning April 1, must
reach 735,o0O,000 net tons, ]. Z. a..
Morrow, general director of distribu-
ton of the United States fuel admin
istration, told the National Coal asso-
citation, in convention here. This
means an increase of 100000 tons
over the production for the coal year
1917 if the war demands of the coun-
try are to be met. It is doubtful, Mr..
Morrow said; if the production of an.
thracite coal can be increased over
last years total of 100000 gross
tons. Therefore the entire $4,000

aside the "sacredness Of contract"
and even though a tenants lease has
expired he may remain in the house
at the rental formerly paid.
Adherents of strict constitutionalism
were aghast at this proposal, and pre-
dicted all sorts of dire happenings if
this precedent was established.
Friends of the resolution called at
tention to the passage of the civil
rights bill which suspended court
remedies against men in the military
service.
To support the claim that the gov
eminent has the right to stop evlc-
tons it was stated that the due proc
ess clause of the federal constitution
has never been. held to deprive the
state of the power. of protecting the
welfare of its citizens, "even at tho
expense of restricting and destroying
life, liberty and property"
"a hundred instances will readily
suggest themselves" it was stated.

MILITARISM IN
SCHOOLS OF NEW
JERSEY REJECTED

President Wilson's own state ap-
parently refuses to be stampeded by
the propaganda for compulsory mill
tary training in the public schools, to
judge from the unanimous report of
the commission appointed by the New
Jersey legislature to study the ques-
ton Of military training in the secon-
dairy schools.
That report, OF which only a yerv
small edition was originally printed by
the New Jersey state printer, has
been reprinted for wide distribution
by the American Union Against Mill
tarism, Westory building, Washington,
D. c., and ought to be in the hands
of every man and woman who is
fighting the attempt to militarize the
schools.
The commission takes the position
that while compulsory military train
ing may or may not be a good thing
for the adult citizen who is commit
ted to the defense of his country,
there is no question that it is worse
than useless when; saddled upon grow
ing boys. Seldom has there appeared
a more trenchent or vigorous refuta-
ton of all the stock arguments on be-
half of military training for boys than
is contained in this carefully worded
and essentially conservative report.
It ought to be widely read, and it
ought to be slammed hard at those
school board members who, largely
at. the behest of the press. are run
ming amuck these days with schemes
for military: training.
Quite appropriately, the American
Union places on the cover of the re-
print the striking words used by
Governor Woodrow Wilson in spe-
cial message to the New Jersey legis-
lature in 1913; Il covet for New
Jersey the honor of showing the way
to liberty" If New Jersey can block
the wholesale naturalization of the
publie2schools, she will be doing pref
ty nearly her share.

tons must come from the bituminous
mines.
A survey of the war department for
coal by the United States fuel admin
istration has shown that the country
will require during the present coal
year 635,000,00O net tons of bitumin-
Gus coal, Mr.. Morrow said. During
the last coal year the bituminous pro-
duction was 100000 net tons.
To meet these requirements it will
