Agitation General.

Agitation for repeal of the daylight
saving law first came from farmers
but recently has been buttressed by
labor unions, mothers clubs. rural
school authorities and many other in
terests. Urban. opinion also has be-
come divided and officials of many
cities and smaller towns have come
out against the law. Congress has
been flooded with petitions for repeal
of the law, in collision with counter
food urging retention of the statute.
Loss Of time in farm labor is the
principal objection raised to the law.
This complaint comes principally from
farmers employing hired hands and,
opponents Of the law declare, all
farmers, at some time during the sum-
mer season, are employers of labor
and suffer from the law.
The complaint Of loss Of labor is
based principally on the shortening of
the working day on the farm by the
advancing of the clock one hour from
March to October. The farmers COM
plants declare they cannot adjust
farm work to the advanced time be-
cause. with the clock advanced an
hour, farm work cannot be begun as
early in the morning as under the
normal time schedule and must close
an hour earlier. This is because the
dew on the ground in the early morn
ing prevents plowing and other farm
labor under the advanced time sched-
ule.

,Ne,u York Mayor,
Says 81" Strike
Was a Frame Uu

New. York, Aug. 1e.-With the
two-day strike Of the $4,000 en-
ployes of the Interborough Rapid
Transit company at an end and
normal traffic resumed on subway
and elevated lines, attention was
centcred today on Investigations
as to the cause of the strike.
District Attorneys Swami of
New York county and Martin of
= the Bronx continued their inves-
LEGATIONS of charges made by
Mayor Hylan that the strike had
been due to collusion between Of
ficials of the company and lead
'ers Of the brotherhood for the
purpose of forcing an increase in
fares from five to eight cents.
Mr.. Swami summoned more
than fifty witnesses to testify be.

For the moral asset he thought 1T
would give the United States not to
participate in the German indemnity,
the president said he had suggested
that not be ,done- but he added in re-
ply to questioning that his idea did
not refer to pre-war claims, such as
the sinking of the 'Lusitania.
Withdrawal From League.
Senator Borah questioned the presi-
dent at some length about the report
of the withdrawal from the. league.
that the council had no power to pass
on withdrawal of a nation or decide
whether it had fulfilled its obligations.
'The only restraining inference
would be the public opinion of the
world" said the president.
That the president said, was the
view of the commission which drafted
the league.
Senator Harding wanted to know
age making provisions for the fulfill
ment of covenants was put into the
article.
Merely as an argument to the con-
science of the nations" responded the
president, adding that it merely
served notice that fulfillment of obli-
cations was expected prior to with
drawal.
If that were true, Senator Harding
said, he thought the language rather
a far fetched provision.
German Views.
The president said in answer to
questions he had no way Of knowing
whether Germany placed the same
construction on the articles as did the
Allies.
Senator McCumber asked whether
other governments. could not accept
interpretations by "acquiescence.".
The president thought there either
would have to be explicit acqui-
escence" or stipulated tie in which
the United States could not know
whether acquiescence was being given.
Any change in the treaty would
have to be re-submitted to Germany,
the president said in reply to Senator
Pittman.
Reservations,
Senator Lodge said it was his un-
derstanding, however. that any reser-
vations as applied to the United
States rather than to the others,
would under international practice be
understood as acquiescence In II other
ngnatories were silent.

Winnipeg Man Finds
Business Order 1000
Years Old In Ruin.

Winnipeg. Man., Aug. 1o.-ver-
bal promises did not count for
much In business transactions
fOrty-four centuries ago, in the
opinion OF Prof. n. A. Mclean,
formerly of the staff OF Manitoba
college, who has returned to Win
nipeg after two years of active
service In Mesopotamia. These
two years convinced Prof. Nc
Lean that the Babylonian mer-
chant was n canny business man.
Mclean found a tablet of
baked clay, which. was enclosed
in a clay envelope. Inscribed
on the tablet in the cuniforln
writing of the Babylonian period,
was an order for the delivery of
a supply of reed bundles to be
used in building a temple south
of Babylon. The order was dat
ed 24OO B. C. Prof. Mclean
turned over this and other dis
coverics to Oxford university.
