Generally, the commission found that uncorrected specific evils and the absence of healthy spirith be- tween capital and labor, due partly to the evils mentioned and partly to "an unsound industrial structure' were the main causes of the indus trial difficulties arising since the war began. The commission says that while "sinister influences and eX- tremist doctrine" have availed them selves of those conditions, they have not created them
 Labor Men Loyal.
 ''The overwhelming mass of the la boring population is in no sense dis loyal" says the report.
 A means of correcting = suggest ed by the causes of the unrest itself. the commission outlines as follows:
 "1. The elimination to the utmost practical extent of all profiteering during the period of the war is a pre- requisite to the best morale in in- dustry.
 "2. Modern large-scale industry has effectually destroyed the person al relation between employer and en- ployee-the knowledge and cooper ation that come from personal con- tact. It is therefore, no longer possi- ble to conduct industry with em- ployees as individuals. Some form of collective relationship between man.

Y. W. c. A. WAR WORK

Through its Ministry of Kar, France
has requested the American Y. w. C.
A. to provide foyers or social rooms
for girls who are working in the great
industrial plants which are producing
government supplies.
The Y ", c. A. came to France on
the invitation of French women of
advanced thought who recognized the
value of the work which the associa-
ton was doing in America. II has
achieved such distinct success in the
less than year it has been there that
the French government has approved
its work, the mayors and prefets
throughout France are cooperating
with it, and the leading manufacturers
are now eagerly demanding its ex-
tension.
AY. w. c. A. foyer or club has been
opened for the girls who are working
in the Ministry of War in Paris, at
the request of the Ministry and after
careful inspection of other clubs in
French industrial centers. Another
foyer for Paris business girls has
been opened in the heart of the COM
mercial district. Similar Y. w. C. A.
social centers are in operation for
munitions workers in Lyons, St.
Etipnne RourUac aud TOlirc
The work among the munitions
women and girls of France is similar
to that being done in the great mu-
nitions plants in America, such as
Old Hickory powder plant at Nash
vile, which is to have the largest war
service club for women in the world.

REPORT FOR SEPT. 10
JOHN ROBINSON CIRCUS TO
EXHIBIT HERE SEPT. %

The advance press agent of the John
Robinson Circus in a communication
to The Comet elucidated the following
anent this old landmark:
Founded i'll 1924, when the Republic
still in its infancy, and throughout
the intervening years its name has
been the synonym for all that is best
in arenic entertainment. IN every
line of endeavor there has usually
been pioneer to blaze the trail and
mark the road for others.
In all essentials pertaining to the
circus the John Robinson Shows has
always been first and formost 1t
was the first touring organization to
combine menagerie in this or any
other country and in many of the
most populous cities in the land it
has pitched its tents and given per-
formances on vacant ground wherein
there is now erected prominent pub
lie buildings and sky-scrapers.
1t was the first to replace the kero-
sene torch and gasoline light with
electrical illumination. 1t was the
first to inaugurate the big scents spec
tacle as an adjunct to the circus pro-
gram and the first show to use the
railroads exclusively for transporta-
ton, the first to erect biiiboards for
advertising purposes; the first to util-
ize the canvass cook house and dining
tent on the lot to feed its employees,
and the parafining of the tents in or
der to render them waterproof was
the invention of one of its members.
This organization offers a striking
example of the survival of the
fittest." 1t has been on the road con-
tinuously for close to one hundred
years, while its oldest contemporary
was not in existence fifty years ago.
Since its inception it has steadily
gained in merit, as well as public
favor, and it would be difficult to cite
a better example of what can be
achieved by three generations of one
family through singleness of purpose
and continuity of endeavor than is
illustrated by these shows.
The Circus will exhibit in Johnson
City Friday September 20.

WEATHER is WARNER

Owing to several hours of bright
sunshine today, the weather is per-
ceptibly warmer.
This cold wave has done compare
lively little damage, owing to the
persistently chilly weather of the last
two months. Most of the oranges in
this section have been shipped, and
there was no great amount of truck
up.
The Tampa Tribune says: When
asked yesterday about what damage
had been done to the citrus crop and
trees by the cold wave, Manager G
E. Stewart Jr. of the Florida Citrus
Exchange, said:
"No damage whatever has been
done either to the fruit or to the
trees. It is true some of the oranges
contained little ice, but this does nc
particular harm. An orange to be
ruined must be frozen solid. The
temperature has been down to 25
twice already this year at DeLan6
and has caused no particular com.
plant. In regard to the trees, they
were in better shape than at any time
in years to Withstand the cold and
none are believed to have. been in
iured"
