ards of American life ought to be a
cardinal part of our industrial policy,
and the sooner the principles IS recOg-
nized the better it will be for the en-
tire country"
Sketching briefly the history of the
steel strike, the report dealt with the
efforts of strike leaders to get Judge
e. H. Gary, chairman of the United
States Steel corporation, into a confer
committee members felt sympathy
with the priciple of collective bar
gaining, but did not believe the steel
strikers had takenfthe right course.
Testimony before the committee, the
report said, sustained the contention of
the steel companies that a large pro-
portion of the strikers are foreigners
or non-English speaking people.
Touching on the subject of radicalism
in the strike, the report said;
Mistake in Leadership.
1.-The committee is of the opinion
that the American federation of labor
has made a serious mistake and has
lost much favorable public opinion by
permitting the leadership of this strik e
some who have heretofore entertained
the most radical and dangerous doc
trines."
Dealing tentatively with the charges
by strikers that the civu authorities
and courts of western Pennsylvania
were controlled by the steel companies
against them, the report said;
This action in many cases has been
such as to lead one side of this con-
troversy to the belief that the officers
of the law were acting on the side of
the steel company. Such a situation is
unfortunate, and helps to breed dis
content. AS long as officers are
human beings they will make mis-
takes. TheY should be very careful
that in maintaining the majesty and
dignity of the law they do nothing to
/ bring it into disrespect.
In regard to the suppression of pub
lie meetings in the strike zones, the
committee observed that the suppress
sion of frank discussion only serves to
accentuate bad situation. Officials
ought not to be permitted to prevent
( men from meeting to talk over their
grievances and presenting to men their
arguments in favor of joining the
J union"

CONVENTION NOTES

Teachers are not overlooking their
privileges of one and one-third cent
fare for their trip home. The desk
for validating certificates in the south
wing of the state house was hardly
able TO check up the hundreds of
teachers who applied yesterday. -
Topeka probably is the most popu-
lar of the four convention cities OF
Kansas, from the number of delegates
who have enrolled from ipoints in
Kansas nearer to Salina, Wichita or
Pittsburg than Topeka. Teachers
from extreme western counties have
come to Topeka. the record showing
enrolment from Sherman, Cheyenne,
Ellis, Ness and Finney counties. One
teacher. whose home is in Wichita, is
among those enrolled.
When teachers notice the pamphlet
Am l Ashamed of My Job?" being
distributed by the Y. w. G. A. in the
state house, hardly any of them fail
to say emphaticaliys well. should
say not" according to- Miss Helen
Shirk, in charge of the booth.
The state house rotunda is the scene
Of many interesting meetings of teach
ers who have not met for long time.
Yesterday two girl teachers could
hardly contain their joy at finding
each other, executing probably the
most strenuous embrace the staid old
rotunda has ever witnessed.

Chicago Weekly Grain and Provisions.
Chicago. Nov. S.-Rapid advances which

inadequate Despite subsequent reactions
the corn market this morning as compared
with a week ago was 37sc to 72c higher,
whereas oats were virtually unchanged.
PROVISIONS showed rise of Zoe to e0c.-
Meagerness of receipts and continued
scarcity of cars tended to make buyers of
corn unusually persistent during the first
part of the week and bring about> steep
upturns in price. Uneasiness about pro-
sSpeetlve difficulties in filling contracts for
December delivery was an especial bullish
factor. Toward the last of the week, how
ever, bearish sentiment was more or less
renewed owing to assertions that car
