FOREIGN LEADERSHIP

seattle is today the cynosure OF
all eyes; not only OF the people in
the Northwest. but OF all the United
States, That city received this dis
tinction yesterday when $1,000 un-
ion laborers walked out on strike in
sympathy. with shipyard workers who
demanded IS day her skilled work.
men and Sc day for unskilled labor
ers. or the latter class, the major
ity of them could not erect an ordi-
nary barn nor construct common
two-oared boat.
In the face of this demand. the
mine owners at Butte, Mont, today
lowered the wages of employees one
dollar a day. Many of those on
strike at Seattle are much. less than
a week from dead broke financially,
but they seem full of hope and OPEN
ly voice their opinion that they will
win out. The general public does
not think so, especially as soldiers
have been rushed to Seattle from
Camp Lewis to preserve order.
Union labor is all right and fine
thing, until the rabid element takes
the bit and runs rampant, carrying
their demands beyond all reason.
That is what has happened at Seat
tie and that vicious weapon, sym
pathetic strike" has again been used
to the detriment of organized labor,
BY employing 1t, the strikers lost all
sympathy of the public.
The design OF the strikers is to
utterly paralyze all business and
bring the country to its knees at the
feet OF labor. Senator Thomas has
characterized the present strike as
test OF Bolshevism in America, II
II wins. the country is in danger OF
being enthralled in a bitter and end
less wage dispute. But by immedi-
ately sending troops to the scene It is
plain that the government intends 10
deal firmly with the situation in It's
incipiency. The strikers may return
after q demonstration OF "A TO As
hours duration. rs has been intimat,
ed, but II not, Seattle will no doubt
go through an experience that her
citizens shall never forget.
A noticeable feature OF most o
these strikes where arbitration is re
fused by the workmen is the fac
that the vast majority Of their lead
ers bear foreign names, Only
short time ago one OF these leaders
said to the Courier editor:
''The trouble with the American
laborlng man is the fact that h
hasn't got the backbone to stand u
and fight for his rights. But thanl
God there are now enough OF US fel

With the American Army Of Occu-

Donhatser, the young German aviator
who claims to have shot down Quen-

France, on July 14th, told the cor

Il was one Of a party OF six Ger

"One American, who, learned lat

of the rest of his squadron and Of
to one side. He Game straight at. 1ne
and l swooped down under his ma
chine. We see-sawed back ana forth
peppering away, and each trying to
gain the advantage by climbing
above each other.
Roosevelt made several loops and

thought his machine. gun was JAM

again to shoot and l felt the bullets
striking my plane. Then | mounted
above him and swooped down to with
in twenty meters OF him, firing all
the time. Then | saw my opponent
collapse and his machine began to
fall.'
Donhausen, who is non-commis-

REID'S YOUTHFUL
DREAM REALIZED.

In his youngster days Wallace Reid 5
dream was to be soldier of fortune.
His chief mental food in those days
was furnished by the excellent ro-
mances of Richard Harding Davis and
other writer's dealing with adventurers
in mythical Central American repub-
lies.
But, alas, he entered picture work
instead Of going to Central America
to become a general in an overnight
army, and not until recently has he had
a chance to portray his fayorite type
of hero. In LESS Than Kim" the
colorful and swiftly romance by. Alice
Duer Miller, which has been picturiz-
ed by Marion Fairfax, and which will
be shown at the Warfield theatre next
Thursday, he has a chance to revel
in Central American atmosphere and
intrigue. The part Of Lewis Vickers
in his latest Paramount starring We
hicle, affords him splendid chance
to enact the daredevil type of hero
he admired in his kid days. He is
splendidly supported by Ann Little and
other fine players.
