SHOULD WEAR UNIFORMS

Adjutant General Clark has re-
quested that all veterans Of the recent
war commemorate the Fourth by
wearing their uniforms.
It is a good idea. Our Fourth this
year ought to be in the way Of VIC
tory celebration, and nothing would
remind us more of the late war and
the great victory than to have all the
boys who are entitled to wear uni
forms put them on tomorrow. Moth
ing would remind us more of the anx-
ious days Of year ago when Ameri-
ca was just getting well into the
struggle, Of the unsettled conditions
at home then and the crisis in Europe,
and Of all that the great war meant
to us.
This years ought to be one Of Am
erica's happiest celebrations, and one
in which the whole world may well
join, Great Britain included.-JOplin

WESTERN KANSAS is
AFTER HARVEST HELP
Wheat Crop In Danger When Pro-
dueers Cannot Get Help 20
Complete Harvest

A shortage Of harvest hands Is en-
dangering the wheat crop in Western
Kansas, according TO reports from
that section of the State and desper-
ate Efforts are being made to relieve
the situation.
The continued rains have resulted
in considerable rust, and made It Inn
perative that the crop must be har-
vested in the short possible time to
prevent a big loss.
The director general of railroads
has refused the request Of Governor
Henry ]. Allen, that harvest hands be
granted q lower fare rate and, while
the Governor Is continuing his efforts
to get a favorable ruling from Direct
or Hines, other plans for bringing In
the help are being discussed.
The Governor has also asked Secre-
tary Of War Baker to instruct COM
manders Of military camps to grant
twenty-day furloughs to all Kansas
men now in service and to other men
who are willing to help save the crop.

WOMEN IN INDUSTRY SEEK
TRADE UNION EQUALITY BASIS

London, July 1.--Women workers
are on the Threshold Of gaining trade
union equality with men In this cOun-
try. Having already demonstrated
during the war that they are efficient
,26O,OOO having been en-
gagged in the munitiOn industry-and
having been promised q minimum
wage and a shorter work-day, they
only need this equality in union mem
bership to put them on the same level
as men.
During the war the wages Of women
workers were practically doubled. In
some cases they were trebled, II ex-
ceptional efficiency was shown.
Owing to the heavy war losses OF
the nations manhood, the young girls
will have a diminished chance for
marriage and It will not be long be-
fore the competition between women
for jobs will be very keen. The wo-
mems sole protection Is trade union
organization.
At present there are some 100000
organized women workers. That Is
far less than one-third Of the number
which has been engaged in various
commercial pursuits during the past
five years.
It appears certain that one Of the
very important labor questions that
will develop Is: Shall women en-
ployed in the same trade as men be-
long to the same union?
While women over thirty years old
have been granted the ballot, certain
organizations still are prejudiced
against women. They are not al
lowed to practice law and the Anal
gamated Society Of Engineers Is but
one of the mems organizations which
has refused to admit women to MEM
bership.
