pionage law in the antiswar cam
paigns he carried on as editor of the
Milwaukee Leader, was presented to

Editor Quit Berger
J. z. Harris, formerly managing
editor OF the Milwaukee Leader, tes-
titled that he resigned his position In
May, 1917. because of a dispute with
Der ~er over an order received to print
for the second time the proclamation
and war program of the st. Louis
Socialist convention.
sBerger said he was the responsible
head Of the paper and insisted upon
it being published again over our pro-
test. He said he would take all the
blame. / then told him l would re-
sign. He expressed regret because
the only two men In the Office he
would consider for the position were
~pro-ally."
The witness said he previously had
been critized by berger for the way
in which war news had been handled
at times.
my instructions from Berger were
to use the Berlin dispatches as lead
ers in the war news" said Harris,
Berger never wanted anything print
ed that might offend German readers.
He objected to stories which referred
to the Germans as Huns or Boches.'
On cross examination Harris ad-
mitted Berger has on numerous oc-
casions printed editorials attacking
the jeiser and the iunker class in

Children Must Play To Be Healthy
and Strong.
A children's recreation drive is on
to continue during July and August,
under the auspices of the Children's
Bureau, Department of Labor, and
the Woman's Committee of the
Council of National Defense. IL will
eliminate in patriotic play week.,

of 100000 women in organizing
recreation in 10000 communities
will come to an end.
"To be strong for victory the Ma
ton must let her children play" said
Charles Frederick Weller, associate
secretary Of the Fairgrounds and
Recreation Association of America.
No time nor money can be spared
from war-winning activities, but the
winning Of the war depends on man
power, and the man power can not
be sustained in any nation without
health and wholesomeness in the
children.
Far worse than exhausting Amer
ica's financial capital would be the
exhaustion of child life, which is man
power capital
England and France began as the
United States has been tempted to
begin-by letting the children pay
too heavily for the war in child labor,
increased delinquency, overtaxed
nerves, weakened bodies, and pre-
mature deaths, but England and
France turned to lift war burdens
from the children by giving them a
chance to play. There is urgent need
to give our boys and girls an AmeTi-

Rotary Wilson Gives Reason for
Labor Mobilization.

Labor Mobilization.
Secretary OF Labor Wilson makes
this explanation of the general mob
ilization of labor for war industries,
recruiting for which is to begin Aug
ust under direction of the United
States Employment Service:
Beginning with common labor,
this service will gradually take
charge of the mobilizing and placing
of all labor for war industries EN-
ploying 100 or more workers. This
will profoundly affect all other indus
tries and all other workers. 1t will
correct the abuses and troubles
growing out of the large labor turn
over with the consequent disruption
Of regular work.
Every safeguard must be taken
to protect the standard of living and
the morale of the wage earners. Es-
pecially must great care be taken to
keep the age limit of those who enter
industry at a high level, lest we rob
our future citizenship Of its right to
growth and time for education. We
must also take knowledge Of the dan
gers attendant upon the large en-
trance Of women into heavy and ha-
zardous industries.
"The exigencies of war times
should not be made the occasion for
the breaking down of those standards
of hours. wages. and conditions Of
work which are designed to protect
the childhood. the womanhood and
the motherhood Of the present and of
the future.
