HARPER SHOULDBE
GRIFFMEFS winner

AUGUSTA, Ca, March 21-Harry
Harper. the Grifs' big southpaw
U1Aeher, should be a winner on the
mound this season, If his condition
now means anything for the future.
His arm is IN excellent shape, and
the way he shoves the ball across the

batting practice.

Augusta formerly boosted OF the
L.
League, but since the league blew
up the diamond, except for the period
in which the Griffmen trained here
last year. and little amateur scrim-
magfnE, has been in disuse. During
the winter the diamond was con-
verted into football gridiron for the
use of Howard Berry and his Camp
Hancock eleven, and that is partly re-
sPonsible for its present bad shape.
Practice in the morning and hitting
practice in the evening marked the
close Of another perfect day in che

squad. and failed to bring to light
anything that seems in any way to

ting bonors OF the American League
when the curtain is rUng down on the
finale of the 1919 season. But despite
she fact that no Cobbs were deveI-
oped, the team as a whole showed up
remarkably well, and according to
prospects will cause many of the
leagues pitchers to wish that fate
had decreed for them some other oc-
cupatiOn than that OF slabman.
The squad Of pitchers which Mike
Martin and Nick Altrock have with
them took turns IN the box, and
while under the watchful eyes of the
trainer and coach they were not al
lowed TO put any Juice or speed on the
balls. but nevertheless showed I'M
usual preseason form.

MENACE OF THE |. W. W.


Tc say that the strikes and the in
dustrial discomfort in the United
States is the work of foreigners"
is to explain nothing and to solve
nothing.
In the first place it is not true,
and in the next place if it were true
we should have the essential facts
to deal with just the same, inasmuch
as American industry is wholly de-
pendent on this foreign labor
thanks to the policy it has persis-
tently followed for the last thirty
years. But Great Britain is having
even more critical labor troubles
than the United States; yet Britain
labor is native labor. In Italy con-
.ditions are seffT worse, and there
again the labor is all native labor and
has been for thousand years.
We shallget nowhere by pretend
ing that all this ferment in the Unit
ed States is the work of ignorant
foreigners. There is nothing mys-
ferrous or occult about it. 1t has
been going min plain sight of every
body who would take the trouble to
look. The issue at present is con-
test between the conservative labor
leaders for the control of the Labor
Federation. That contest has been
in progress for years, radicalism
having gained immeasurably as a re-
suit of the war, while conservatism
has lost ground.
Although the doctrines of the l.
w. w. are totally un-American in
the sense of being antagonistic to
the American tradition and the
American theory of government
they are not un-American in theil
origin. The I. W. w. as a militant
organization of industrial revolution
lists has been at work for TWENTY
years and has been gaining strength
every year that it has been at work
The country refused to take it Sc
rfously because it was regarded
merely as a "roughneck" labor or
ganization that resorted to violencl
and sabotage, and as the averag
American does not believe that dis
order can succeed, he took it foi
granted that the l. w. w. could b,
put down by the bayonet and the pc
liceman's billy. What he refused t,
take into consideration was the fac
that violence and sabotage wer
incidents in the career Of syhdicalisn
and that they could be abandoned e.
en- more easily that they could b
adopted.

may still believe that the destruction
of property is defenaible and ef-
fective means Of getting rid Of the
capitalist; but that is not the policy
they are now pursuing. They are
engaging in organizing the 'prole-
tariatv into one big union, as they
call it, in the belief that they can
bring the great masses Of workers
into single Organization, they can
then seize the machinery of govern
ment as well as the machinery Of
industry. They are trying to do in a
different way exactly what Lenine
and TrotzISy did in Russia, and as
far as, possible they are using the
old labor organizations as conven-
lent weapon.
The time when the /. w. w. was
openly at war with the American
Federation Of Labor. Then it chang
ed its tactics and set out to capture
The Federation. The battle is still
on, but the |. w. W. organizers have
succeeded in getting foothold in
every important union, and in many
of them they are either in absolute
control or they hold the balance Of
power between rival factions.
They have found that, temporar
lily at least, tearing up wage agree
ments promotes their purposes bet
ter than the use Of dynamite; that
more can be accomplished by bring.
ing about the violation Of union con-
tracts than by dropping emery dust
into the machinery Of the factory
that the demand for higher wages
and less work is more eloquent APP
peal than any form Of violence
While they always use, the weapon
that seems the most useful then
aims never change, and their aims
are identical with the aims of the
bolsheviki everywhere.
Nobody can reach an intelligent
understanding of the industrial sit
uation in the United States or Of
the new dangers, that confront Amer
lean institutions who does not fear
lessly fact the facts of the syndical'
ist movement in this country. 1t has
become not more formidable, but
menacing, and to seek to dismiss il
as the work of the ignorant "for-
eiSners" is a manifestation of sui
cidal folly. 1t cannot be put down
by force. 1t must be met with edu-
cation, and education is wholly lack.
ing. Nowhere is there any organic
ed attempt to deal with this question
intelligently and to enable to Amer
lean people to comprehend what j
means to them and their children
