PEACE CONFERENCE COMMISSIONS
WORLD LABOR CONGRESS PROGRAM

cit should be added that the Jap
anese delegation abstained from
voting on Article 10, as they had
not vet received instructions from
their government in the matter.
The Italian delegation also abstain
ed on the ground of the inadequacy
of the powers given to the confer
ence.
"2. Enforcement-Arti % to
"a and 34-These articles provide
machinery whereby state which
fails to carry out its obligations
arising under Article 10, or which
fails to enforce a convention which
it has ratified, may be made sub
iect to economic measures. This
machinery is briefly as follows:
can industrial association of en-
ployers and workpeople may make
representations to the international
Labor Office which the governing
body may, at its discretion, commu-
nicate to the state complained of for
it's observations. If no satisfactory
reply is received, 1.-The governing
body may publish the correspond
ence, which in most cases will prob
ably create sufficient pressure by
public opinion to cause the COM
plaint to be remedied.

Solution Agreed Upon


THE commission spent a consld-
cradle amount of time in attempt
ing to devise a way out of this di-
llemma. Article 10, as now drafted,
represents a solution found by
sub-commission consisting of rep
resentatives of the American, Brit
ish and Belgian delegations special
ly appointed to consider the ques-
ton.
ct provides that the decisions OF
the Labor Conference may take the
form either of recommendations or
of draft conventions. Either must
be deposited with the Secretary
General of the League of Nations
and each state undertakes to bring
it within one year before its COM
petent authorities for the enact
ment of legislation or other action.
If no legislation or other action to
make a recommendation effective
follows, or if draft convention
fails to obtain the consent of the
competent authorities concerned,
no further obligation will rest on
the state in question.
"ln the case of federal state.
however, whose power to enter into
conventions on labor matters is
subject to limitations, its govern
,ent may treat a draft convention
to which such limitations apply as
recommendation only.
Subjects will probably come be-
fore the conference which, owing
TO their complexity and the wide
differences in the circumstances of
different countries, will be incap-
able of being reduced to any uni
versal and uniform mode of appli-
cation. In such cases convention
might prove impossible, but rec
ommendation of principles in more
or less detail which left the indi-
vidual states freedom to apply them
in the manner best suited to their
conditions would undoubtedly have
considerable value.
THE exception in the case of
federal states is of greater import
ance. 1t places the United States
and states which are in a similar
position under less degree of OBJ
legation than other states in regard
to draft conventions. But it Will
be observed that the exception eX-
tends only to those federal states
which are subject to Imitation in
respect of their treaty-making
powers on labor matters and that
it extends only in so far as those
limitations apply in any particular
case.
Attention should be drawn to
the protocol to Article 10. The
fear was expressed that the article
might be interpreted as implying
that state would be required to
diminish the protection already af-
forded to the workers by its legis-
lation as a result of the adoption
of recommendation or draft con-
vention by the conference. In con-
sequence the protocol was added in
order to make it quite clear that
such an Interpretation was inadmis
sible.

GREAT HIT WITH

MANILA, May 26.-Little brown

American army, and especially of In
Gle Samuel's care of his fighting men
little brown fighting men were pre-
pairing to take the big jump across
the water and into the thick of the
war when it ended suddenly.
They were game little brown men,
at this big camp, named for the first
Filipino to fall in the service of his
adopted nation on the field of France.
They are born fighters. They assem-
bled gallantly readily last October;
not knowing much about what was
expected of them but ready to do their
bit. What would they find at the big
camp?
One thing, and among the first, was
the Y. NJ. c. A. Rather the Y M. C. A.
found them. Two huge huts with "sa-
vali'' or braided bamboo sides and
"nipa" or thatchey roofs were already
built and in them were wonderful
things. There were magazine racks,
curious and absorbing games, pia-
nos, monographs with many records
posters and pictures and ported
plants.
The little brown men were made
welcome and told they were "at
home And the day of the big open
ing $4,000 sheets of writing paper
were issued-the little brown men, de-
scendants of the fierce little fighters
who fought against Old Glory in 1898
were writing home; writing of the
kindness and hospitality of Uncle
Samuel through the Y. NJ. C. A. MAX
ings his adopted nephews comfortable
and happy.
And how they did enjoy the motion
picture shows. Seven thousand men
saw the screen dramas the first night.
Three shows were given nightly-it
was lark for the little brown men.
And the games! The Y NJ c. A.
arranged and equipped basket ball
and three volley ball courts; and as
sisted in arranging inter-regimental
games of push ball and volley ball
and basket ball; and the little brown
men picked up the games and played
them with dash and spirit that
might well have astonished their
white cousins across the sea. And
they had classes of all kinds, and re-
ligious teaching, with polyglot Sun
day school classes, four were con-
Quoted in English, three in Tagalog,
two in Ilocano, one in Cehuano and
one in Illomgo. There were classes

Storms Carry Birds to Far North.
Certain instances of birds found

the whirl of our cycIonic storms. The
wind, turning counter-clockwise blows

A New Forest Problem.

The demand for lumber for rebuilding
in Europe will work havoc in American
forests unless some precautionary meas
ures are taken to prevent it. This is the
dictum of Colonel Henry Graves, chief
Of the L. S, forest survey, who has just
returned from trip to investigate cen.
ditions abroad
The dictates of generosity make ii
seem a selfish thing TO deny the needy
countries all Of our timber which NAV
seem necessary for their rebuilding con
tracts; but the United States cannot do
this without seriously diminishing its
own supply for years to come.
Every state which exports lumber
should limit the sale to such an amount
as can be spared safely, and at once
set about the most extensive program
Of reforestation possible.
Had the forest policy Of this country
been what it should be in the past years,
we would have timber for ourselves, for
Europe and to spare. As it is, unless
the sale is limited and the replanting is
made Systematically, our own supply
viii be diminished past repair.
Even our desire for present generosity
is called upon to pay for our past mis-
takes in numbering. Monitor.
