THE wORLD-LABOR PROGRAM

President Wilson, tn q recent state
Went, calls special attention to the so
called "bill Of rights for labor" adopt
ed at Paris. He says:
"The labor program, which the con-
ference Of peace has adopted as part
Of the treaty/0f peace, constitutes one
Of the most important achievements
Of the new day in which the interests
Of labor are to be systematically and
intelligently safsgpaFded and pro-
Wmid the multitude Of other inter-
Ssts this great step forward is apt 70
be overlooked and yet no other single
thing that has Been done will help
more to stabilize conditions Of labor
throughout the world and ultimately
relieve the unhappy conditions which,
in too many places, have prevailed.
Personally, regard this as one Of
the most gratifying achievements Of
the conference"
There Is No question as to the value
Of this program, even though It Is
necessarily only an expression of a&
vice and desire rather than an accom-
plished system Of reform. The world
has gone for in the direction Of fair
treatment Of laber when the govern
meRts Of Al the leading nations caA
agree on such enlightened principles
as the eight-bpQF day, the abolition Uf
child lsbsr, equal pay for men and we-
men, decent living wages, q weekly
day Of FeSt better factory conditions,
etG
Some Of these reforms are already
well established in the United States
and other progressive countries. The
rest will be actively pressed, and the
whole set Of principles will constitute
y propaganda and q legislative PRO-
gram in every industrial country. It's
adoption Is concrete evidence that the
war has been won by democracy RRA
that the workers are going 70 get the
square deal they deserve.

RAILROAD LOSSES
ARE AElM
Losses Incurred During Fifteen
Months Of Government QpeF-
alton Of Railroads Said to
Aggregate $416,OOO, 900

Director General Hines, In q dis
cussiOn regarding the railroads last
evening at Washington, d. c., dis
closed the following facts;
The Governments deficit in Operat-
ing the railroads during the first three
months Of this year was $192, ,OO0, 900.
The loss for 1918 was S226y 900, 900,
making the entire 1osa for the Afteen
months Of Federal operation $41S, ,OOO,-
OO0. This loss was said, by Mr.. Hines,
to be due largely to marked reduction
Of freight traffic during the Peried Of
Government operation. i appears
that the coRditisn for April, although
complete figures are NOT yet available
show no improvement.
There has also been q deficit Of
about (14,6A0,000 In the operation Of
The American Railway Express Com
pany. during the eight months Of Gov
ernment operation ending March /,
1919.
Notwithstanding these deficits It Is
said that the Government does not
contemplate any increase in freight or
express rates but will await the 10
turn Of normal bNsiAe9a conditions.

Jules Barnes, United States wheat

country for the past three months. He
has visited st. Louis and Chicago and
talked much about the bursting ele-

went % tar In Chicago a. to threaten

course, to keep the spectators out Of

to the thought that wheat and wheat

that in the process Of turning the jug
inside out not a drop of whisky had
been spilled.
But this is yarn about a Kansas
cyclone. 1t really hasn't any place in
veracious account Of the ordinary
Kansas wind.
Sharpening Tools
There is many a Kansas farmer who
will explain to the tenderfoot that
Kansas Is u very poor market for
grindstones. In fact they are hardly
necessary in this State at all. The
usual practice is that when an axe or
hatchet or other instrument needs
sharpening that it is hung up on the
windward side of the house or barn
and the particles of sand and soil car
ried by the high wind would soon put
a fine edge on the tool. This has been
the practice good many years, ordin-
arily a sharp edge being put on an
axe during the noon hour.
1t sometimes happens that the wind
is so strong that a small boy has to
be set to pour water on the axe tp
keep it from getting so hot it loses its
temper.
Hands OF Watches
There are many well-FecoFded in
stances where men from the East have
come to Kansas and lost the hands
from their watches. They did not
know the idiosyncracies of the Kansas
wind so, instead of affording their
watches careful protection when OBJ
serving the time of tue day they Alp
PANTY and carelessly jerked a watch
out of the pocket and held it up where
the breeze could strike it and, .bingp,
there wasn't any hands left on fhe
watch.
Dry Wells
Frequently the newspapers contain
items about wells going dry and there
being great shortage of stock water. |
Now this isn't the case in the ordi-
nary sensa of q well going dry simply |
by the water being exhausted. Ne,
no, that isn't what hapPenRat all. The
wind simply sucks the water out of
The we'll and the stockmen can't catch
It or hold it or get it to their cattle or
horses or sheep.
A eistern Story
Down at Girard they swear by the
pink-toed prophet that one day man
climbed up on a barrel to fix the top
oft a window, A little gust Of wind
zane along and blew the barrel from
under the man and into a cistern. The
man being caught by the same terrific
gust Of wind was whirIed through the
air and dropped into the same cistern.
When the folks went to pick him out
they found him sitting on the barrel
ana not even stitch Of his clothes was
damp. ."
Only dad" BaldheedeA
Of course it has long been known
that the wind always blew sQlhard in
Kansas that it was necessary to hold
the hair on the head.
Now, really there Is some truth in
that proposition, too. But the fam
lies in this State have worked out a
scheme for saving the hair, Jane, the
oldest girl, would hold the hair on
her mothers head when the wind was
blowing hard, and Mary would hold
the hair on James head, and Grace
would hold the hair on Mary's head
and Bill would hold the hair on
Irace's head and Tom would hold the
nair on Bills head and Jim would hold
the hair on TOMS head and Dad would
nold the hair on Jim's head.
1t shouldn't be necessary to explain
It, but Dad lost his hair years ago
when he first came to Kansas and
lidR't need anyone to hold his hajr on.
Being bald made It possible for the
.amily to maintain an ideal arrange
nent for maintaining their heads Of
iair.
