WASHINGTON, May 30.-A report
on conditions in Germany, made by
British army officers, has been re-
ceived through official channels here

gaining rapidly.
The report says In part:

Gated classes are powerless 10 overt

they will be prone to express their
rage and indignation against the
Allies by siding with the powers of
revolution and anarchy. Under these
conditions the present government is
Of the opinion that it will not be
able to cope with the ultra So
cialistic and bolshevistic movement
in their midst. The German people
will not listen to reason and law
while their women and children go
hungry and the workingmen despair
of obtaining work under ordered
conditions.
IF the present government fails,
the Independents (who have been
negotiating with the Left Wing Ma
jority Socialists) will assume powar.
The Independents have already UNI
dermined the influence of the gov

The avowed aims of the party are

T0Uph0LD|.E Law
American High Court Can't Back
On Former Decisions and
Reverse Child Labor Law.

Tho new federal child labor law.
recently declared unconstitutional by
Judge Lloyd Of the western judicial
district Of North Carolina. does not
contain any reference to interstate
commerce, according to the National
Child Labor Committee. 49,
There il a misconeeption in the
public mind" says Owen r, I4ovejoy,
general secretary of the committee,
In a statement issued today, "con-
corning the basis of the child labor
amendment to the revenue act. While
1t is true that the child labor law Of
1916 confined its prohibition to the
shipment in interstate commerce Of
child-made goods, tn. present law Of
1919 places a 10 per cent tax on the
profits of establishments employing
children. regardless Of whether their
products are shipped into another
state or remain in the state where
they are manufactured.
''The standards-a 14-year age limit
for work in factories. mills, canneries,
and manufacturing establishments, a.
16-year limit for employment in mines
and quarries, and an 8-hour day and
no night work for children between
IA and 16-are the same as those
established by the former act, and
this fact may have given rise to the
confusion about the basis of the law"
Concerning the probable action Of
the supreme court in the matter. Mr..
Lovejoy has this to say: Unless the
supreme court goes squarely back on
its previous decisions, it will not at
firm Judge Boyd's decision Of uneon-
stitutionality. The fact that congress
sought to do by indirection what it
could not accomplish by direct pro-
hibition, has nothing to do with the
case.
congress has in the past laid a
prohibitive tax calculated to destroy
the article taxed-notably in the case
of colored oleomarsarine, state bank
notes. and the manufacture Of phos-
phorous matches.
''1ts power to do this has twice
been upheld by the court and I have
avery confidence that the court will
do so for the third time in the child
labor case"

!: HANDS GOOD BYE
TO CLAIM AGENT
Legislative Committee Urges
State Insurance.; Less Costly
Than Private Risks.

BOSTON, May 30.-A state fund to
insure employers against injuries to
their employees is recommended in the
report of the recess committee on
workmen's compensation submitted to
the Massachusetts legislature.
1.-THE first proved advantage of a
state fund for workmen's :compensa-
ton insurance is the low COST" says
the report, land this low cost of state
fund insurance results from the elm
1nation of certain expenses necessarily
attendant upon stock company insur-
ance, especially commissions to agents
and profits to stockholders"
The report states that insurance
agents and brokers during the opera
ton of the workmen's compensation
act, have received in commissions Is u
per cent as much money as has been
paid to the injured workmen. These
commissions have in five years
amounted to more than 100000.
''The interest of employers and en-
ployes, and in fact, public policy, de-
mand the elimination. of superfluous
overhead charges in compensation"
the committee declares. 1.-The ideal
system of workmen's compensation
is one which provides a maximum be-
nefit to the employees at minimum
cost to the employers. This cannot
be realized through the medium of
stock companies"
A state insurance fund, it is urged,
will materially reduce the cost to in
dustry, while at the same time pro-:
viding liberal benefits to injured en-
ployers and their families. The COM
mittee unanimously recommends that
the maximum benefits payable to in
jured workmen should be increased.

Los Angeles Traction Employees
Win Collective Bargaining
and Wage Raise.

LOS ANGELES. CAL. May 3o,-The
labor movement of Los Angeles is
greatly pleased with the decision OF
the war board in sustaining the con-
tention Of the Street Railway EN-
ployees' union Of this city that it has
the right to- bargain collectively.
This, it is conceded, places the
union upon firm foundation, regard
less of the determination of the COM
pany to ignore the organization. The
war board also ordered the reinstate-
ment of two men who had been dis
| charged on account of union activity.
The company will be required to pay
each man back pay equal to his earn
ings had he remained in the service
Of the company. less any amount
actually earned since being dis
charged.
The board allowed the men an in
crease Of 1 cent an hour. this small
amount being due to the fact that. in
the hope Of discouraging it's employees
from joining the union. during the
past year the company at, different
times has granted increases amounting
to cents an hour, which, with the
boards 1-cent raise, gives the men
10 cents an hour more than they
would now be receiving had they not
organized.
The war board declined to grant an
eight-hour workday, probably on the
ground that the men have not been
organized sufficient length of time,
eight-hour workdays being something
!, not secured merely for the asking.
To date the street car company has
made no statement IS to it's inten-
lions, but the men are confident they
will get the extra cent and also that
there will be no more discharges on
account Of union activity.

PENALTY IS IMPOSED
FOR ILLEGAL STRIKE

SYDNEY, New South Wales.-An
order for payment Of penalty of f10
with costs was the substance of Mr..
Justice Edmunds' decision in a re-
served judgment under the Industrial
Arbitration Act, in connection with an
illegal strike Of certain members of
the. Union of Piano Frame Molders
and Stove Makers Employees. The
union was ordered to pay flo, the
maximum fine being $500.
Mr.. Justice Edmunds pointed out
that while the piece work molders
were admittedly a very turbulent Sec
ton, the union officials, when they
had failed to prevent an illegal strike,
had taken no steps to condemn it nor
to prevent their own officers from
taking part in it. AS the element OF
international wrongdoing, however,
had not been made out he did not
think that the case called for a severe
penalty.

threats are being made I suppose
we will be forced to meet the issue
and the quicker we meet it the quicker
1t will be out Of the way" From this
we gather that there are interests In
Duluth that would welcome a general
strike.
What Might Happen.
But the situation with the Radford
and Wright company and with other
mills would be different than with
the Duluth, Show Case company.
Here is how it would work out If the
employers persist in opposing to make
a collective bargain with the union.
The millmen would be forced to strike
for higher wages, shorter hours and
improved conditions. If strikebreak-
ers were secured and non-union MILL
work is turned out, then union car
penters would refuse to set it up.
Should non-union carpenters be Sc
cured to set up the non-union mill
work the other building trades unions
would refuse to work with them. In
this way a general building trades
strike would be brought about, a
strike completely in accord with trade
union ethics.
Do we want such a situation in Du-
luth? Can we afford to destroy all
prospects for building during this sea-
son by having such cloud hang over
the city? We can have industrial
peace in Duluth. Labor wants it and
labor pleads for it. but it insists that
peace cannot be purchased at the
price bid by the mill owners. In
dustrial Justice must at all times
proceed industrial peace. A word to
the wise at this critical time should
be sufficient.
