Hon. v. A. Olander, of Chi
cago, Tells of Advantages
to- Au1aEican Sailors and
Cornrnends Young Men to
the Sea.

The Honorable v. A. OIander, Sc
retary of the Illinois state Fedora 4
of Labor, of the Illinois Sean, 1
Nnion. and a member of the national
war labor board, was asked vest "
by a representative of The Journ ~
his views on the future OF the m -nant
fleet of the United States. Mr.. Olander
talked very freely. and his views on
the subject will doubtless be interest,"
ing to all who are connected with
shipping in any way.
Mr.. Olander is staying at the San
Carlos hotel for short time, having
come south to recover from a nervous
breakdown caused by overwork in the
government service. He is accompanied
by his wife, a charming lady, and one
who is thoroughly interested in her
husbands work.
THE future of the United States
merchant service is assured" said Mr..
Olander, whether or not the govern
ment stands back OF the ship owners. -
He went on to explain why, the start
having been made, its momentum will
keep it in motion.
For many, many years." he said,
owners of shipyards. and shipyard
workers. objected to having foreign
registry. This was folly. because is
matters not where ships are built, they
must be repaired near home, and there
is just as much profit in repairing
ships as in building them. With ships
to repair, ships to build follow as a
matter of course.
1T was a law, until the Seamen s
Act of 1915 was passed, that foreign
ships could secure crews at low wages
in foreign ports, come into American
ports and trade, and go to sea with
their cheap crews aboard, under the
protection of American police.
Understand me Alright, now,' and
Mr. Olander's face took on that fight
ing look which has helped him to that
high position he holds in labor coun-
ellis, Il mean that these seamen were
forced to remain on the ships they
came on, regardless of whether or not
they wanted. to remain. Their liberty
was taken from them. They We're ar
rested by American officials and
forced TO return to their ships.
That is not American justice, and
the Seamen's Act says they may leave
their ships. and If they are desirable
immigrants, remain in the United
States. If they are not desirable they
may be adeported, but they may not
be forced TO labor under unfair con-
The result is that foreign ship own
ers are forced to pay American wages
and give American living conditions.
This in turn puts American owners
on the same footing and allows them
to compete with foreign ship owners
Asked il there is any future for the
young men OF America in ea-going
ships, Mr.. Olander declared that the
time is ripe and that young men can
go to sea now with every prospect OF
good wages. good quarters and food.
and reasonable and just chances for
He especially recon-
mends that men who have had naval
experience go to sea in the merchant
service.

LEGISLATORS
EDUSY ON
PET MEASURE


Tallahassee, Fla. April 27.-Rea1izins
that as rule not one bill out of ten
introduced after the beginning of tho
| fifth week passes, except emergency
measures, members are laying their
plans to get their pet measures in
during the next few days and keep
/ them as well advanced on the cal
| endars as possible.
The general appropriations bill is ex-
pected to be finished this week in the
committee. It will be introduced and
placed on the calendar as soon as the
| work upon it is completed. 1t is point
| ed out that in the past, when appro-
priation measures have come in dur
| ing the closing days of the session
there has not been sufficient time to
properly consider the numerous provis-
ions and compare the figureS careful
1y. The result has been an imperfect.
and often extravagant, general appro-
priationbill.
1t is known that the appropriations
committees intend to stop every pos
sible leak in the state government and
the pruning knife will be used freely
in the preparation of this measure. one
70 the most important Of every legisla-
tive session. Any expenditures neces-
sary to the thorough conduct of the
state government, however will not be
denied.
Trssling on scale is also expect
ed to make its debut during the COM
ing week for legislation is a game
of give and take. The advocates OF
tick eradication. citrus canker, reap
portionment, appropriations for exist
ing colleges and new ones that are
planned will now begin to watch thei-.
cards and cut them carefully. Even the
little semi-local propositions are likely
to be endangered if their authors fail
to mind their step and play safety
first.
The fourth week Of the legislature
is like the seventh inning of ball
game, the scores made then tell the
final tale. The end OF the third week
this year possibly finds more progress
made along constructive lines than
ever before.
Bryan Won't Push Patent Medicine
Bill.
Representative " c. Bryan, chair
man of the house committee on tenn
perance. has in his possession a bill,
the introduction of which he is seri-
ouly considering. which imposes heavy
penalties upon persons found with
any still, worm or part or product of

Curious Animals Freaks

There ar some curious freaks de-
flocks and herds. George Schriner
has an old hen which has adopted a
family of kittens, and never closes
her eyes at night until the young
felines are safely slowed beneath
maternal wings The kittens are now
old enough to call around to the
kitchen door for their daily eats, but
are invariably accompanied by the
sedate old hen as chaperone-clucking
messages of injunctions and warn
ing. The youngsters, however, like
some other youngsters in these
strenuous times, do not seem to have
much regard for the advice Of their
elders.
Ashort time ago Mr.. Schriner's cows
developed decide falling off in
their flow of milk and it was thought
for some unknown reason they were
going permaturely dry. But one day
he accidently came upon the real
reason, when he found herd Of
thrifty shoats taking turns at sucking
the cows, and thus creating opposi-
ton to the Lodi condensary.
On the lawn at the Burlingame
farm is a pair Of striped gophers
which / have named Larry and Luz
cinda and one of the prettiest and
most unique sights have ever wit
messed is to watch them dining on the
seed stalks of toad plantain growing
in the yard While in the act they sit
erect holding the stalk which has
been cut off at the ground in both
front paws, just as hungry urchin
holds an ear of sweet corn and goes
after the kernels in the same hearty
manner When the stalk is stript
clean however instead Of laying it by
plate the gopher throws it over his
shoulder The pair seem to have
little fear Of my old wife and /, but
seldom in sight if young American is
in the vicinity.

men who are in, or out OF the SER
vice. We have taken copy of your
question blank, and expect to make

From the war office of war risk in

q QUESTIONABLE and getting such COM
plete information concerning the deeds
of returned service men in your COM

Prevention of strikes by police
men in the District of Columbia and

country is the purpose of a bill IN.

This does not prevent district po-

strike they would be automatically
discharged. The bill is limited to
policemen of the District of Columbia
