their own representatives and present
their grievances and that they should
have been heard
Testimony before the committee,
the report said, sustained the conten-
tion Of the steel companies that large
proportion Of the strikers are foreign
ers and non. English speaking people.
Touching on the subject of radical
ism in the strike, the report said
The committee is of the opinion
that the American Federation of Labor
has made a serious mistake and has
lost much favorable public opinion by
permitting the leadership of this strike
movement to pass into the hands of
some who have heretofore entertained
the most radical and dangerous doe
trines."
'Such men" said the report, abiding
to Foster and Margolis, ARE dangerous
to the country, and they are dangerous
to the cause Of union labor 1t is unfair
for men who may be struggling for
their rights to be represented by such
leaders. If Mr. Foster has the real in
terest of the laboring man at heart, he
should remove himself from any lead
ership. ii he viii not remove himself
from leadership, the American Fedora
ton of Labor should purge itself of
such leadership in order to sustain the
confidence the country has in it under
the leadership Of Mr. Gompers'
Dealing tentatively with the charges
by strikers that the civil authorities
and courts of western Pennsylvania
were controlled by the steel companies
against them, the report said:
'.The action in many cases has been
such as to lead one side of this contro-
versy TO the belief that officers of the
law were acting on the side of the
steel company. Such a condition is I'M
fortunate and helps to breed discon
tent. As long as officers are human be.
ings, they will make mistakes. They
should be very careful that in main
tanning the majesty and dignity of the
law, they do nothing to bring it into
disrepute.'
in regard to the suppression of pub
lie meetings in the strike zones, the
committee observed that "the suppress
sion Of frank discussion only served to
accentuate bad situation. Officials
ought not to be permitted to prevent
men from meeting to talk over their
grievances and presenting to men their
arguments in favor of joining the
union"

Of Benjie LOrimer's baby

mother Of Bentie Lorimer's baby
daughter.
All the world believed that the
second Of the Lorimer boys had taken
wife in Canada when he enlisted in
the R F. G. Only the Lorimers knew
that there had never been a wedding.
Benjie himself had protested that
the girl was as much to blame as he
was. He was glad to take the child.
but as its mother was a millionaire's
daughter and didn't need to be sup
ported, neither law nor convention
should force him to marry her. Then
he had rushed OF and learned 70 ny.
and had come to his death in q colli-
sion in the clouds.
And about that time Katherine NIL
Ter had left town to be trained as an
army nursei wondered why / had
never thought OF the coincidence be-
fore.
I realized that my imagination had
started on a queer journey.
And Bob was keeping ME waiting.

used to annoy me dreadfuuy. But
now-watting for Bob was a Joy!
