VARIOUS KINDS OF CHARITY
And Greater Far Than the Giving Of
Aims Is the Practice of Charity
Of Thought.

Someone has said that "Charity Is
the highest tree in heaven" 1t Is
saying that we can well believe,
for not only does charity cover a null
. titude Of sins but It also covers its
devotees with its solace and comfort.
II Is to be feared, however, that
there is a misconceptlon as to the fun
meaning covered by the word char
ity. Many people seem TO understand
that charity consists solely in the Civ
ing of aims. And the fact Is that aims
giving Is merely one form of charity.
There is a charity that we can prac-
tlce toward those Of our fellow men
who stand in no need of aims. There
are. indeed, many who are well pro-
vided with the goods Of this world
who stand In great need Of charity,
The charity of our thoughts is what
we stand in need of.--Los An
geles Times.

Diamond Cutters,

There are $4,000 diamond cutters
and polishers In the world. OF these
only about 67J are in the United
States, and these have come mostly
since the outbreak Of the European
war, which crippled the industry in
Amsterdam and Antwerp. the worlds
greatest centers. There were at the
beginning Of the present year 36 dia-
mond-cutting establishments in this
country. This is exclusive of shops
where all kinds of precious stones are
cut
The number of Germans employed
as diamond cutters did not exceed 500
before the war, and of these only -
per cent worked for establishments
In Germany During the war 900 or
100 Belgian cutters emgrated TO Eng
land and organized as a branch Of the
London Diamond Cutters union, They
did work principally for Belgian and
Russian houses.

Protecting AirpIsne propeIIers

An aluminium plating for airpane
propellers has been devised for the
purpose Of protecting the wood from
the influence Of the weather. which
has been serious problem heretofore
The plating is thin leaf which is in
c0rporated In the finish of the propel-
lers, and the idea was developed by
the forest products laboratory at
Madison, Wis, and placed in produc-
ton by the war department. The
process Is practically 100 per cent eff
fectiye in preventing absorption of
water, particularly in the storage
stage. A French authority states that
50 per cent of the French propellers
produced are rejected by the pilots
mainly because they are out of bal
ance. This difficulty Is due largely 10
unequal absorption or distribution Of
moisture and can be greatly reduced
by an effective interpreting coating.

nothing will be wasted as the drops,

president of the Chicago Federation or

name Of every alleged radical member
Of the federation suspected of foment-
ing disorder In connection with tho
steel strike.
II have been told that General Wood
has said there Is not scrap OF evil
dence to connect any of the men ar
rested with the strike. The reports
that radicals are running the strike are
untrue. I believe that all this talk OF
radical plots to overturn civil govern
ment ard, establish soyiets Is 'bnnk1s'
/ It was reported today that Secretary
Baker has been asked to send per-
sonal representative to Gary to fnves-
tigate charges made against OFFICIALS.

of the IT'S highest skilled workmen
employed in the steel industry. VINO
earn fromys2s to ss6 a day under nor
NAL conditions, have returned to work
along with their helpers. '
The executives Of the plants express
the belief that the strike Is practically
over. MS the companies have no irten-
ton of increasing their output at pres
ent. They say each mill Is building up
n new organization and that moro men
are applying for work than can ne
used. Union leaders deny these asser-
tions. .-..

termined that federal laws be enforced

Tho American people viii not ex-

Washington. Oct. Is--By an over
whelming majority the house today
passed the bill extending for one year
the wartime measure tending to keep
radicals out of the United States.
The fate OF the industrial conferences
hinges on the outcome of the efforts Of
the committee OF fifteen TO reach an
agreement on collective bargaining"
representatives Of the three groups de-
clared today. Several conferces said
that unless both capital and labor
showed a spirit OF compromise the
conference might as well adjourn. Tho
comlttee resumed It's sessions In tho
hope OF completing report for pre-
sentation to the conference this after
noon. Charles Edward Russell said
today before ho entered the conference
that "the committee hoped To present
a report. but he did not think 4, would
be possible"
An agreement on declaration ~ to
the right of wage carners To organsza
and bargain collectively with employ
ers appeared probable when the ma
tional industrial conference adjourned
today.
Senate Committee Gives IL Up.
The senate labor committee today
decided to end it's investigation Of tha
steel strike as quickly as podAible
without further visits to strike zones.
The investigation OF the steel strike
by the senate committee will be closed
next week with questioning Of radicals
by the committee. In making this an
nauncaYnent Chairman Kenyon said
the decision was reached because OF
the committees desire to report to the
senate and to expedite tbs Americans
ization legislation OF forsiSn born rss-
idents of the United States. -
Final witnesses In the strike WIN be
heard Monday and Tuesday Of next
week and the committee will then draft

sired to visit other strike districts bus
1t was decided the information obs
tanned at washnston and Pittsbursa
