Give Them SHARE
Workers Must Receive Part of
What They Create.
So Says BOrah, New @ate
Labor Board Head.

Washington, March 13.-American
workers must be given share in the
industries they help create and main
tain share not measured in wages,
Senator Borah. next chairman of the
senate labor committee, declared to-
day.
Borah was discussing labor legisla-
ton to be presented at the coming
session of congress.
THE fundamental thing. the first
thing which must be done.'' said Bor-
ah, sis the formulation of a definite
governmental labor policy. This we
have never had.
We have met exiSencies as they
have arisen by juggling wages, raising
them here, lowering them there when
it was possible. We have never gone
at the problem in way really to solve
it.
Incorporation must be the keystone
of any real working out of a sound
economic basis of the returns of capi-
tai and the workers. Cooperation
must be the thought behind a govern
ment labor policy.
Both Must Have Interest.
"Co-operation, of course, is impossi-
cooperate have an interest in the
business or industry. 1t must be an
interest on the part of the workers
that goes beyond mere wages. Work
ers must have an actual share in in
dustry which will give them the in
centive to cooperate, make them
eager to do so. because such cooper
alton means their own welfare"
1t is from this starting point that
Borah plans to move in framing recon-
struction labor legislation. His record
as chairman of this same committee
before the Democrats took control of
congress includes:
Vigorous and successful work in be-
half of the bill creating the depart
ment of labor. of which he is generally
regarded as the father; creation of the
children's bureau; passage of the act
extending the eight-hour law to adj
government contracts; passage of the
law creating an industrial commission
t. report on legislation concerning the
adjustment of differences between
ca pital and labor; passage of the res
olution for investigation of the steel
industry which resulted in abolition
of the seven day week.
Solve the Whole Problem.
But tho labor has in the past OBJ
tanned many helpful laws. the present,
Borah declared today. is the time to
fairly.
At the end of the war in the winning
of which labor played such an import
ant part, the time is ripe to get to
fUndamentals and stop meeting labor
problems by expedients which at best
are only temporary, said Borah.
The present is the great opportun-
ity to advance the interests of both
labor and capital by putting their rela-
tons on basis which will last and
which will recognize labor's place as
1t never before has been recognized

IRISH QUESTION UP
London Mail Says Conditions Are Bad
Need Self Determination.

London, March 13.-Special prorni-
nence is given by the Mail to a Dub
lin dispatch representing the situation
in Ireland as being extremely bad and
maintaining that the need of effective
self-government is more urgent than
ever before.
''Now that the Sim Fein members
Of the house of commons have been
released" the dispatch says, there
will be a new assembly of the Irish
parliament which will probably be a
very troublous affair, without an au-
thoritative administration to balance
its activities. Labor troubles of great
est import are growing and it is i'm
possible for the British government to
handle them. There is barely a seq
ton of Irish labor which is not pre-
pairing or threatening to strike for
demands which no employer can pos
sibly grant. The well intentioned
schemes of General Viscount French,
lord heutenan, for social an indus
trial improvement have gone by the
board, and there is a dangerous situa-
ton which can be handled only by an
Irish parliament"

Charges That He Caused Assas-
sination of Duke Ferdinand.
Murder Brought on War Which
Has Torn World.

Berne, March 13.-Charges that the
assassination Of Archduke Francis
Ferdinand and his wife. the Duchess
of Hohenberg at Sarajevo on June
%, 1914. was the result of a deliber-
ate plot led by the late Count Tisza
former Hungarian premier, are made
in a pamphlet written by a priest who
was the spiritual adviser of the duch-
ess of Hohenberg, according to a
Vienna dispatch to the Frankfort Ga
zette.
The pamphlet, entitled. 1.-The Sara
jevo murder and Count Tisza's re-
sponsibility for the world war;" is
said to have made a profound impress
sion in Austria. It is declared that
Francis Ferdinand repeatedly refused
to go to Sarajevo and it was only an
appeal to his courage that induced
him to make the trip.
1.-The most elementary precautions
were omitted" it is stated by the
priest. He was simply led into a
trap prepared by the court at Vienna
and the Hungarian aristocracy headed
by Count Tisza.
The general idea of the pamphlet is
that Magyar magnates with the con-
sent of the Vienna court wished to get
rid of the duke who was extremely
disliked and obtain vengeance for the
murder at the expense of the Jugo-
CldNS, WHO WOulQ De HELPLESS. II IL
pointed out that no proper inquiry
was ever made into the tragedy and
that no one was made responsible for
the fact that precautionary measures
were not taken.
Count Stephen Tisza, who was as
sasinated at Budapest. on November
1, 1918, was for many years one of the
leading figures in Austria Hungary
political life. To him was attributed
the whole Balkan policy of The dual
monarchy and it was reported after
Francis Ferdinand became the he'll
presumptive to the throne of Francis
Joseph, he was induced by Count
Tisza to urge the scheme of a tribune
monarchy made of Germans, Magyars
and Slavs. to replace the Austro- Hun
garian empire. 1t was reported thai
this proposed government should have
! its center at Budapest instead OF

GREAT HUN ARMY
Volunteer System Would Work
to Germany's Advantage.
All of 100000 Force Allowed
Would Be Officers.

Paris, March 13.-Within five years
after peace is signed Germany will be
able to throw a fully differed army
of several millions into the field-pro-
viding the allies impose the volunteer
system on that country-according to
the belief expressed in French mill
tary and official circles today.
The French regard the proposed
volunteer system. providing for Ger
man army of 100000 as a potential
and stupendous Saint Cyr'' (the
French West Point. They declare
Germany could easily maneuver the
system so as to permit only officer
material to enter the standing army,
which would become in reality only an
officers training school, yielding after
four or five years the equivalent of
100000 West Pointers. These would
be sufficient to command an army of
ten million.
era1 million comparative youngsters in
Germany who already can be regarded
as veterans. In addition. it is feared
the twelve-year term of enlistment
would encourage young men to make
army life their profession. Admitted
ly, it is practically impossible to pre-
vent continuation of Germany's shoot
ing and turnverein organizations,
which in the past were only thinly
disguised military training centers.
Germany, the French point out, could
disguise the turnvereins and use them
as schools for privates, with the vol
unteer army as an officers university.
Thus, should the allies consider Ger
many disarmed and try to disarm
them, Germany would at once become
an immense standing peril.
Will Take Advantage.
/. History, it is emphasized, has proven
that Germany may be expected to
turn any set of conditions to her maxi
mum advantage. 1t is recalled that in
the early Napoleonic era, when her
army was limited to little more than
a police force, she trained an entirely
new army each year, with the result
that she was able to place formidable
force in the field when the opportunity
came.
The French press generally prefers
to have consumption retained in Ger
many under allied control. If the al
lies decide to establish the volunteer
system, the newspapers express the
hope that the league of nations will
exercise the most drastic supervision
over Germany's war making facilities.
