mittee

Notwithstanding estimates that it

ally rewritten by the Senate Appro-
pria tions Committee of which Sen

sioner of Labor and Industry have

ernor have been added. The Gov
ernor would select the chairman.
The commission would appoint, pre-
scribe the powers ana duties and fix
the compensation OF the supervisor
of military training and necessary
employees.
A new section provides that after
September /, 1919, all students at
proposed act shall be given such
tending the schools Included in the
military or nealth instruction and
tanning or both as the commission
may prescribe" The courses pre-
scribed by the commission would
be a part of the curriculum and the
work of the students would be
marked as in other subjects and the
standing form a part of the require
ments for promotion for graduation.
Annually between June / and Oc-
tober L the commission could es-
tablish and maintain field training
camps throughout the state for
those students. who in the preceding
year have undergone military train
ing. Application for admission to
the camp would be made to the
commission. This training would
last from two to six weeks and

Letter to the Editor
ENTERS PROTEST
TO the Editor Of the Telegraph:


Mechanicsburg, Pa, March s.
Yesterday l took q letter to THE
Patriot" office, in which l referred
to the word "darkie" being applied
to one of our valiant colored soldiers,
and instead of publishing my letter,
as written, they quoted part and mis-
construed it under headline reading
"Objects to Dialect"
L want 1t distinctively understood
that it is not the dialect but the
derisive term "darkiC" that l object
to and consider unjust. Will you
kindly print the following letter,
which is copy of the one sent The
Patriot" and which shows that it was
not negro dialect, but the term
''darkie' which was Objectionable.
Mechanicsburg, Pa. March 7.
Mr.. Editer:-In this mornings
Patriot there was q halfway report
of the reception given the colored
soldiers last night at the Armory.
After referring to their magnificent
records on the Vosses, Argonne and
Metz fronts.'' the writer attempts to
use negro dialect in quoting a state
ment alleged to have been made by
u negro soldier and refers to him as
a Smiling darkie." This derisive
term proves that the one thing for
which they fought, bled and died,
still exists in their own home town,
and that is, caste. Mayor Keister's
welcome address showed love for and
loyalty to a people who are deserving
of all the honor that can be given
them in this land of the free and
home of the brave"
+. l.. Jefferson, or Steelton, spoke
of the numerous heroic deeds of our
colored soldiers in a most forceful
way, as did our distinguished lawyer,
w. Justin Carter, and it is deplorable
that there was not real newspaper
present to have taken
down what actually took place.
Yours for truth and justice.
j. PAUL CLIFFORD.

LABOR CLAUSES
PEACE TREATY
Are ATTACKED
Senator Thomas, Democrat,
Asserts Provisions in Pact
Fail to Cope With Threat
ening Labor Evils.

Washington, Aug. 22.-The labor
cope with threatening labor evils and
point toward a program which may
disturb the domestic peace of the Uni
ted States, Senator Thomas, democrat,
of Colorado, declared in a speech to-
day in the senate. He expressed grave
doubt whether that section of the
treaty should be accepted under the
constitution.
The International labor conference
to be set up, Senator Thomas de-
clared. would be an important integral
part of the League of Nations, though
the provisions creating it are not in
cluded in the league covenant.
'Inasmuch as organized labor cor
rectly speaks of itself as a Glass; said
the Colorado senator, lit is entirely
appropriate to say that by including
this program in the treaty, distinct
recognition and separate organization
are given to class. To enthrone a
class, whether by revolution or by
treaty. is but to estrange other classes.
1T may be possible to reach the goal
Of uniformity in the conditions of
labor, but / question whether it can
be done otherwise than by making the
standard the lowest. and leveling down
to IL. Strict uniformity in world labor
conditions can be attained only at
the expense OF the American wage

Sen. FLETCHER
SOON EXPECTED
Florida Senator Did Not
Suffer Conclusion of the
Brain as First Thought,
Say Late Reports.

Washington, Aug 22.-The complete
recovery of Senator d. u. Fletcher
of Florida, from the injuries he re-
ceived when struck by a street car
here last night. and his return to his
duties in the senate. within ten days

Martyr. the senator's physician.
Senator Fletcher sustained a deer
cash over the left eye which required
sixteen stitches to close. He also sus-
tanned contusions and bruises about
the head, body, legs and arms. But no
bones were broken. neither was there
concussion of the brain or fracture
of the skull.

capitol during a binding downpour Of
rain, Senator Fletcher aIighted from
a street car at Fourteenth street and
Massachusetts avenue, short dis
tance from his home, at 1455 Massa-
chusetts avenue, walked around the
end of the car and stepped right into
a street car going in the opposite
direction, which he did not see be-
cause of his raised umbrella. He was
knocked down by the car. which car
ried no fender, and dragged thirty feet
before the car could be stopped He
was carried, unconscious, into a near
by drug store and later carried to his
home. where DIR. Martyr was sum-
moned and took sixteen stitches in the
cash in his head.
1t was more than an hour before
he regained consciousness. Almost
his first words were in exoneration
of the car crew. 1T was my fault" :"
he said, s.the car men were not to
blame" Mrs Fletcher. the senator's
wife, and daughter, are visiting Mrs,
