WORLD B PLAN

eventually af6x their signatures" /.
Gompers would not discuss in de-
tail the report, but l learn positively
from European ource that IL Is d.
vided into two sections. The first Sec
ton provides for the permanent ma
chinery, e yearly convention OF dele
gates from each of the six most i'm
portant labor nations-two represen-
tatives of the government, one en-
ployer Of labor and n employe from
each.
The second section is a declaration
of the nine planks or principles to be
included in the treaty:
hi labor is not a commodity
Free speech and a free press,
No child labor,
The eight-hour day,
A wage commensurate with tho cost
of living,
Restrictions on convict labor,
Equal work to bring equal pay to
all,
Protection from cheap foreign la
Dor,
Regular inspection of working con-
ditions.
The rights of seamen are not recog-
nized in the report of the commission,
despite the fight made by Gompers
for their inclusion. Though European
seamen would have been the greatest
benef1ciaries. the European delegates
rejected the clause because of the eff
feet II would have on wages.
But Gompers secured a clause
which will be a protection to Amer
lean m 1t provides that no
country shall be asked to accept a
lower standard for any workers than
is now in existence.
Gompers Is returning to America ir
April.

HUN TREATY S|GNERS
FACE LOSS Of POWER

The Germans know that's coming.
They know the allies Won the war
and they lost II.
But however magnanimous the
terms OF peace which the allies i'm
pose. a storm of criticism is bound
TO break around the heads OF who
ever actually agreed to them, in the
opinion of allied diplomats.
Their loss of the war will be
brought home with new point when
the German nation finds itself pledg-
ed to settle.
There Is a lot Of talk in Germany
about reconsideration" OF the colon
les question; a belief that the Ger
man delegates will be allowed to
haggle and argue and take the edges
off other allied terms.
German officials or others who are
arousing such hopes in Germany now
are simply sowing seeds that will pile
up the storm of criticism after the
German delegates have "signed here"

School and Home Gardens

When planning your gardens or the
planting space in o u yard. don't for
get the flowers. Plant as many as
you have space for. II your space Is
limited, use discretion in what YOU
plant, you can't have all the flowers,
therefore make q few selections of
standards. If possible have q few
bushe of tea roses which will bloom
until frost kills them. In planting
new roses 1t is a good plan to allow
roots to lie in warm mud a few
hours before planting and then set
them out with the mud still on their
roots. being careful not to have the
dried by the wind, and also be-
ing careful TO spread the roots out
fiat and pack the soil over them. Mix
bone dust with the soil and give a
good watering to send 1t down to the

SAMUEL wooDFILL,
First Lieutenant, Company N,
Goth Infantry.


Three acts Of conspicuous
daring In one day near Cunel,
France, October II, 1918, won
the Distinguished Service Cross
for Lieut.. Woodfll. While he
was leading his company against
the enemy his line came under
heavy machine grn fire, which
thrcsrened TO hold up the ad-
vance. Followed by two soldiers
at twenty-five yards. this officer
went. out ahead Of his first line
toward q machine gun nest and
worked his way around its flank,
leaving the two soldiers In front.
When he got within ten yards
Of the gun 1t ceased firing and
four Of the enemy appeared.
three Of whom were shot by
Lett. woodfll. The fourth. an
officer, rushed at Lieut.. Wood
all, who attempted to club the
officer with his rife. After a
hand-to-hand struggle, Lieut..
Woodfll killed the officer with
his pistol. His company there
upon continued to advance until
shortly afterward another ma
chine gun nest was encountered.
Calling his men to follow, Lieut..
Woodfll rushed ahead Of his
line In the face Of heavy fire
from the nest, and when several
Of the enemy appeared above the
nest he shot them. capturing
three other members Of the
crew and silencing the gun. A
few minutes later this officer, for
the third time, demonstrated
conspicuous daring by charging
another machine gun position,
killing i've men In one machine
gun pit with his rife. He then
drew his revolver and started
to jump intosthe pit when two
other gunners only a few yards
away turned their gun on him.
Failing to kill them with his
revolver, he grabbed a pick ly-
ing near by and killed both of
them. Inspired by the excep-
tfonal courage displayed by
this officer. his men pressed on
to their objective under severe
shell and machine gun fire.
Lieut.. Woodfll is married and
lives at 1877 Alexandria Pike,
Fort Thomas, Ky.
