Workers Of America, contrary to the
previous announcement, have decided
to withhold their appeal on the ruling
Of the Federal Court Injunction pro-

tors, with Secretary Of Labor Wilson,
In Washington, would determine to a
large extent, whether the case Is car

The miners counsel have 80 days
In which to Als their appeal.
The decision Of the miners is taken
to indicate that they have accepted the
government assurance that the suit

against the right to strike, but WAS
solely to prevent violation OF the law,
in this case, the Lever act.

Washington. D. C.-More than
$500, 600, 900 is available in the United
States for construction of hard.surfaced
roads In 1920, according to a statement

JOBS FOR SOLDIERS

The Pennsylvania State Employ
ment Service has put into operation
several methods of following up the
the service of the country, in order
to procure employment for them.
Applications from these men are re-
ceived at the various offices of the
service in several ways. In one case,
the men in camp who are about to
be discharged, fill in cards which
are taken to the camp by represent
atives of the United States Employ
ment Service. These cards give the
name of the soldier. his home ad-
dress, the character of the work
which he has hitherto performed
and the work he is desirous of OBJ
tanning. These cards are forwarded
to the Pennsylvania State Employ
ment Service for distribution to the
offices nearest the homes of the ap-
plicant. The superintendents of these
offices have received instructions to
follow up each applicant, find out
whether he has secured employment
and If he had not, to make immedi-
ate efforts to secure employment for
him. The superintendents do this
by sending out a form letter in
which the soldier is asked to answer
certain questions. Amongst others,
whether he has received the job he
had worked at before entering the
service? Whether he had secured
employment elsewhere, and if he de-
sired us to continue our efforts to
find employment for him? Upon re-
ceipt of answers to these questions,
they take such steps as are neces-
sary in accordance herewith.
Notwithstanding the depression in
the industrial world entailing a
diminution in the working forces in
all industries. the employers have
strained a point to take on one or
more discharged men and thus assist
in keeping the promises made to
them before entering the service. To
secure the cooperation of employers
in the matter of obtaining openings
for discharged soldiers, there were
sent out through the various offices
of the service, thousands of form
letters asking them how many men
they could use, the kind of work,
the wages and the hours. The re-
sponses to these letters have been
cordial and gratifying, and as soon
as an order for men is received at
an office of the service. applicants,
who have not as yet been placed,
are referred to the employer. The
particular order we receive may not
be such work as that for which the
applicant has applied. but it is Of
fered him and If for any reason he
refuses to accept it, his application
is kept alive until such time as an
order is received for the work which
he is desirous of obtaining. In this
manner over $500 men received en-
ployment through this branch of the
State government during the month
of May. 1919.

The Post-July Bdrroom
CEvangeline Booth in Christian
Herald

The Salvation Army has within
the last few weeks demonstrated in
ITS province of New York the psy-
chology of the brass rail. There is
something about the shining bar
which brings all men to a common
footing. The easy and relaxed atti-
tude of those who lean against the
mahogany or cherry suggests solid
comfort Because wine and beer are
to go. shall a man not take his ease
in his own inn? Therefore at our
newly opened hotel in West Forty
Seventh street we have kept the bar
and the brass rail. and the bartender
back of them. Although soft drinks
are served instead of hard ones, this
barroom of the new era glows with
good cheer. Those who will man
age the saloons OF the new order
will be instructed to make them
abodes of comfort and cheer. The
success of the Salvation Army has
been ascribed by such keen students
of human nature as Cardinal Glib
bons to the fact that it appeals di-
rectly to the individual. The Saliva
ton saloon will not turn the cold
shoulder to those worsted in the
battle of life. but will have over
every mirror its familiar slogan: "A
man may be down, but he is never
out"

UNNECESSARY NOISE.

T IS to be hoped that the Rotary
Club will adopt the resolutions
presented Monday evening call
ing upon Mayor Keister to use his
powers to stop unnecessary noises in
Harrisburg.
This is part OF the program for a
healthier city laid down by Colonel
Martin, State Health Commissioner,
and is probably the easiest and least
expensive item in the list to enforce.
All that is needed is vigorous action
by the police.
The resolutions mention unneces-
Bary whistling of locomotives and
exploding of quarry blasts at un-
seemly hours, but worse even than
these is the unlawful use of cutouts
by automobiles and motorcycle
drivers. There is absolutely no ex-
cuse for noise of this kind, and it is
particularly Objectionable either late
at night, in the very early hours of
the morning or in parts of the city
where railroadmen and others who
work at night must take their rest
during the day. A half dozen arrests,
with proper publicity, and the prac-
aice would be broken up.

The increasing importance of the

perience to find one or two carrier
pigeons among the common pigeons
who breed at the State Capitol in

COMMITTEE of expert stu
dents of industrial relations,

~ uentS Oh ihuustridi reidtiohS'
under the chairmanship of
the Rt. Hon. ]. T. Whitley. M. p,
chairman of committees of the
House of Commons, was appointed
in 1917. The terms of reference to
the committee on relations between
employers and employed, as the
Whitley committee was called, were:
Il. To make and consider sug-
gestions for securing a permanent
improvement in the relations be-
tween employers and workmen.
"2. To recommend means for
securing that industrial condition
affecting the relations between en-
ployers and workmen shall be sys-
tematically reviewed by those con-
cerned, with a view to improving
conditions in the future"
The report is based upon the be-
lief that the most workable solution
of the problems arising out of in
dustrial relations is likely to come
from the voluntary cooperative ac-
ton of employers and employees,
rather than from the arbitrary i'm
position of government regulations;
that the system of industrial rela-
tions springing from such a volun-
tary collaboration, as the faithful
expression of joint thought and
agreement, will be more likely to
prove permanent and effective than
an even better system showed down
over recalcitrant groups by execu-
tive order.
further assumption underlying
the report is that there is impera-
tive need for machinery that will
bring employers and employees to-
gether for continuous consultatio
upon matters of mutual concern
other than matters in dispute: that
there is serious gap in an indus
trial organization that provides for
conference only where one of the
parties has a grievance. On this
point the report states:
The schemes recommended In
this report are intended not merely
for the treatment of industrial
problems when they have become
acute, but also, and more especially,
to prevent their becoming acute.
We believe that the regular meet
ings to. discuss industrial questions,
apart from and prior to any differ
ence with regard to them that may
nave begun to cause friction. will

crushing out of the towards whose

NO CREDIT TO AMERICA

A MEXICAN soldiers are hot I'M
u der the collar because Marshal
Haig's report on the conclu-
sion of the war makes no mention
whatsoever of the part borne by
American troops. They are utterly
ignored. This is characteristically
British attitude. The United King
dom's achievements in the war were
glorious beyond compare, but John
Bull the old rascal, would have it
believed that the other nations acted
merely as his trainers in the great
bout with the Huns. And with his
seven votes in the League of Nations
he would be quite as dictatorial, self
inflated and insistent on bossing the
globe. AS a combination of Sir Gal
ahad and Falstaff, commend us to
the typical Englishman.

materially reduce the number of
occasions on which, in the view of
either employers or employees, 1t is
necessary to contemplate recourse
to a stoppage of work"
The general idea that permeates
the whole report is that industrial
peace and efficiency demand candid
and constructive treatment OF the
fundamental aspiration of labor,
which promises to be voiced with
increasing vitality, for greater in
fiuence and control over those parts
and processes of industry that most
vitality touch the workman's inter-
ests. 1t is refreshing to see the
trainers of this report go past I"
inadequate expedients and
drive directly at the heart of the
labor problem, although extremists
contend that they betray only a
Platonic interest in the full impIi-
cations of the workman's interest in
actual joint control. But the trainers
frankly state their convictions on
this point in a manner that indicates
a healthy appreciation that the
questions of status and control un-
derlie the more material issues of
wages and hours. On this the re-
port reads:
1--WE have thought it we'll to re-
frain from making suggestions or
offering opinions with regard to such
matters as profit sharing. co-part-
nershin. or particular systems of
wages. etc. - We are convinced
that a permanent improve
ment in the relations between en-
ployers and employed must be
founded upon something other than
a cash basis. What is wanted is
that the working people should have
a greater opportunity of participat- :
ing in the discussion about and ad-
iustment of those parts of industry
by which they are most affected"
The Whitley report. then. is based
upon these four general considera-
tions: % the self administration of
industry rather than governmental
regulation: (2) the complete and
coherent organization of both en-
ployers and employed in all indus
tries: (3) continuous consultation
instead of intermittent parleys. with
the view of removing the causes as
we'll as adjusting the issues OF dis
putes; a. the securing to the work.
men a larger voice in the control of
those parts of industry by which
they are most affected.
