His Personal Opinion Is That
Corporation Will Not
Negotiate

NEW YORK. Sept 25.-After be-
ina shown an Associated Press dis
patch quoting John Fitzpatrick. d.
rector general Of the steel strike, as
saying the waIkout would end imine-
diateIy if the United States Steel
corporation would arbitrate dlfter,
ences. EIbert H.. Gary, directing head
Of the corporation, declared IN
statement tonight, speaking for him
self, that he believed the board OF
directors cannot negotiate or con-
fer with Mr.. Fitzpatrick or his asso-
ciates."
Mr.. Gary was shown the dispatch
while he was attending a dinner
given here tonight by Baron Kondo,
president Of the Japan Mail Steam
ship company, and was asked to
make some comment. Breaking the
silence he has maintained since the
beginning Of the strike, Mr.. Gary
wrote a statement while seated at
the table and then, calling the news
paper men into the hall, read It to
them.
The board Of directors Of the
United States Steel corporation are
lHC W 'SStNSN
stockholders, including from SO. 900
to 10000 employees" said the state
ment. I'VE are their servants and
are selected to represent and protect
their interests and also the interests
Of all our 25o. 900 employees. the ma
Jority of whom | think are not men,
bers Of labor unions.
Moreover, | believe our corpora
ton is under great obligations to
the general public concerning the
issues involved in the pending
strike. In these circumstances
would not assume to answer the
question propounded to me.
"However, I will say for myself
that questions Of moral principle
cannot be arbitrated nor be COM
promised, and in my opinion such
questions are included in the present
unfortunate struggle. | also think
we cannot negotiate or confer with
Mr. Fitzpatrick and his associates as
union labor leaders concerning our
employees whom these gentlemen
have volunteered to represent"

CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE

The cloudy of yesterday forenoon
was followed in the afternoon by a
torrential dow1lpcur of rain, accom-
panied by thunder and lightning
While the storm was by no means
severe in Alexandria, it wrought
havoc in other places, and the decid-
ed drop in temperature is indicative
Of hail somewhere.
The weather forecast yesterday
stated that there would be "no de-
cided change in temperature, but
early last night the northeast wind
brought much lower temperature.
and early this moning conditions
were chilly.
Lightning, which was accompanied
by rainfall of las inches, yestcr-
day afternoon. created havoc in the
downtown section of Washington.
Many trees were blown down and
others were splintered by lightning
The work shop of the Capita!
Traction Company at Thirty-second
and M streets was struck by light
ming and damaged. A horse was
killed by lightning. Lightning also
struck Liberty Hut. The flag pole
and much of the roofing was torn
from the building. A travelling cleo
trio crane at the Navy Yard was
demolished by lightning.

KICKING AGAINST GOADs

As the halter draws Germany pulls
back. She can do nothing but con-
form, but she is evidently determin-
ed not to conform with good grace,
to draw out the proceedings and,
yielding, to make faces.
AS the Baltimore News says,
"signs are increasing daily that the
Germans propose = sign the treaty
with their tongues III their cheeks.
What possible relief they expect, to
find in such course must be left
to German psychology. Of all peo-
Piles the Germans have most to lose
by maintaining an attitude ttat ac-
centuates bitterness, already acute
enough in all conscience. Dependent
upon the Allies for food, for raw
material with whic':: to work; de-
pendent upon them, maybe, for pro-
tecticn from outbreaks on their own
soil, they are setting about making
the path to peace as thorny as pcs
sible, ignoring the fact that they
will be the chief sufferers.
eff the rest of the world looks on
with amazement and contempt, Sc
cure in the knowledge that the Ger
man will sign; that ne will settle;
that he VIII fulfill the peace terms
as they are set forth. it is because
it has learned to knav uhe German
and also knows the Strcag:l' of the
determination to make him pay. He
will whine. Threaten and buster.
But he will yield to superior force
What we are witnessing is another
demonstration that in making peace,
as in making war. good faith is not
German virtue"

from the blotter, as the parties gen
orally young people, when they face
each other in court show a DISPOSE
ticn to withdraw the charges.
Tt is a noticeable fact that in q
majority Of the cases; when the,
ccmplainants are Questioned closely,
it becomes apparent that it is "six
Of one and hal f dozen of the
other"
1t is difficult to make young mar
RED people comprehend that they
wsd each other for "better or
worse"
While the man may have one Of

Out of every ten marriages that
occur in the United States one ends

figures that are to be Cleaned from
