ABOUT ARTICLE x
Boston Herald. June I'D

dangerous misconceptlon has ex-
a ted from the start in the minds of
Nay Americans as to what is in
volved in Article 10 of the Covenant
of the League of Nations, to which
article Senator Johnson says. 1T Is
unthinkable that any American can
subscribe"
This article says: "The members Of
the league undertake to respect and
preserve as against external agrees
sion the territorial integrity and ex-
listing political independence OF all
members Of the league. In case of
any such aggression or in case of
threat of danger Of such aggression.
the council shall advise on the means
b. which this obligation shall be full
filed"
This means simply and solely that
external aggression must end. 1t
does not mean that boundary lines ex-
isting today or existing whenever the
aggression occurs must be maintained.
Nothing exists in the covenant which
status quo. The trainers Of the COW
enant had no such absurd notion that
a growing, constantly changing world
should be rigidly preserved as 1t ex-
lists when the treaty is signed. There
are numerous ways in which changes
can be made without aggression: by
purchase. interchange, or some kind
OF amicable agreement, especially If
preceded by removal of economic bar
riers. There is only one way by
which changes cannot be made-that
is, by external aggression. When
Senator Johnson asks, Are ye ready,
Americans to pledge your sons and
yCar sons sons to maintain and pre-
serve for all time the present govern
ment of the little nations we are set
ting up in Europe?" he is conjuring up
ridiculous proposal never in the
minds OF the trainers of the covenant.
Radicals and reactionaries alike have
stumbled over this plain statement
and some Of them wickedly. some OF
them ignorantly, read into 1t what is
not there. Enormous consequences
depend upon the immediate rectify-
ing of this gross misunderstanding as
to the article which is the backbone
OF the whole covenant.
Let it be remembered, military op-
position to external aggression is to
be the last agency, not the first one,
used. Each nation is now to be its
brothers keeper and should help in
the great work of forestalling and pre-
venting trouble. Economic pressure
is to be the first deterrent. A nation
that will not send its case to court,
that begins on external aggression, will
in the first place know that not a ship
will enter its ports, not railroad car
or telegram pass its border line. II
boycott fails, then a small |
quota of soldiers may be requisitioned |
from each country, but only when our |
on the council votes for
1t. We can never be compelled to |
send our troops against our will. |
Those sent will be volunteers, not
and they will simply stop
aggression. They will not conquer
or continue punishment IL aggression
ceases.
Let Americans refuse to be fooled
by specious arguments at this most
critical time. The question IS. shall a
traction of the ninety-six men in the
American Senate prevent world or
sanization and the beginning Of the
end of external aggression and frus-
rate the worlds hope?

THE UNION LABEL AND
REAL COOPERATION

The emulation of the splendid spirit
of cooperation which was displayed or
all sides in carrying on industrial and
other activities to beat the Hun in
the Great World War, should convey
lasting lesson to all trade urionists
The trade-union movement is in its
very essence, a comprehensive plan OF
cooperation, radiating as it does from
local unions through central trades
councils, State Federations of Labor and
international Unions into the American
Federation of Labor.
One of the great departments of the
American Federation of Labor is that
which has FOR its object the education
of the workers to the great factor they
should be to correct many existing in
concentration of their purchasing pow
er, the Union Label Trades Depart
ment
Of what avail is it to denounce I'M
fair employers by resolutions, which so
often fail of their object for no other
reason than our refusal to withhold Cur
patronage from them, The very firms
and corporations we seek to have treat
their employees fairly by exposing I'M
fairness on the one hand, we make ar
rogant by purchasing their output with
money earned under union conditions,
on the other hand.
This is not Co-oDeration, but it is in
consistency almost criminal, and until
we all come right down to "brass tacl1s"
and become union members in fact as
we'll as in name by cooperating with
our fellows in every other trade,
through the discriminating power of
purchase we are not going to. make
any noticeable nor permanent progress.

PRESIDENT WILSON DEVOTES BULK
OF MESSAGE TO LABOR MATTERS
Reform Must Be Based Recognition the
Participate in Every
Welfare.

In his cabled message to Congress,
President Wilson devoted large part
to the question of labor, for he says at
the outset that this stands at the front
of all others. This is the first time that
President has dealt to such an extent
with labor matters in a message to Con-
gress. Labor men seen by reporter
for The Connecticut Labor Press ap-
prove of the message in regard to labor
but wish the President had been more
definite and outlined plans rather than
referring to them in a general way.
The part of the message concerning
labor is as follows:
The question which stands at the
front of all others in every country
amidst the present great awakening IS
the question of labor; and perhaps l
can speak of it with as great advantage
while engrossed in the consideration of
interests which affect all countries alike
as l could at home and amidst the in
terests which naturally most affect my
thought, because they are the interests
of our own people.
"By the question of labor I do not
mean the question of efficient industrial
production, the question of how labor
is to be obtained and made effective IN
the great process of sustaining popula-
tons and winning success amidst COM
mercial and industrial rivalries. [
mean that much greater and more vital
question, How are the men and women
who do the daily labor OF the world to
obtain progressive Improvement IN the
conditions of their labor, to be made
happier and to be served better by the
communities and the industries which
their labor sustainS and advances?
How are they to be given their right
advantage as citizens and human be-
ings?
1--WE ~canot go any further in our
present direction. We have already
gone too far. We cannot live oI1r right
life as a nation or achieve our proper
success as an industrial community II
capital and labor are to continue to be
antagonistic instead of being partners;
if they are to continue to distrust one
another and contrive how they can get
the better of one another; for, what
perhaps amounts to the same thing
calculate by what form and degree of
coercion they can manage to extort on
the one hand work enough to make en-
terprise profitable, on the other justice
and fair treatment enough to make life
tolerable That bad read has turned out
a blind alley. 1t is no thoroughfare to
real prosperity. We must find another,
leading in another direction and to a
very different destination.
at must lead not merely to accom-
mediation but also to genuine Co
operation and partnership based upon
real community of interest and par
ticipation in control.
"There is now in fact real commun-
ity of interest between capital and
labor, but it has never been made evil
dent in action It can be made oper-
alive and manifest only in new or
ganization of industry. The genius of

our business men and the sound prac-
teal sense of our workers can certainly
work such a partnership out, when once
they realize exactly what it is that they
seek and sincerely adopt a common
purpose with regard to it.
Labor legislation lies, of course,
chiefly with the States, but the new
spirit and method of organization which
must be effected are not to be brought

operation of capitalist, manager and
workman. Legislation can go only a
very little way in commanding what
shall be done.
THE organization of industry is a
matter of corporate and individual in
itiative and of practical business ar
rangement. Those who really desire a
new relationship between capital and
labor can readily find way to bring it
about and perhaps Federal legislation
can help more than State legislation
could
The object of all reform in this
essential matter must be the genuine
characterization of industry, based up
on a full recognition of the right of
those who work, in whatever rank to
participate in some organic. way IN every
decision which directly affects their well
fare, or the part they are to play IN
| industry. Some positive legislation is
practicable The Congress has already
shown the way to one reform, which
should be worldwide. By establishing
the eight-hour day as the standard day
in every field of labor over which it can
exercise control. 1t has sought to find
hope and believe, presently find it.
ct has served the whole country by
leading the way in developing the means
of preserving and safeguarding life and
health in dangerous industries. 1t can
now help in the difficult task of giving
a new form and spirit to industrial or
ganization by co-ordinating the several
agencies of Cancellation and adjustment
which have been brought into exist
ence by the difficulties and mistaken
policies of the present management of
industry, and by setting up and develop
ing new Federal agencies of advice and
clearing house for the best experiments
and the best thought on this great mat
ter, upon which every thinking man
must be aware that the future develop
ment of society directly depends.
Agencies of international counsel
and suggestion are presently to be Gre
ated in connection with the League of
Nations in this very field; but it is ma
tional action and the enlightened policy
of individuals, corporations and soci-
cites within each nation that must bring
about the actual reforms. The men,
bers of the committee on labor in the
two houses will hardly need suggestions
from me as to what means they shall
seek to make the Federal Government
the agent of the whole nation in point
ing out, and, if need be-, guiding the
process of reorganization and reform"

The case was one of the most remark

in the trial to-day.
Army medical officers testified that
Col Rutherford suffered from shall
shock and insomnia and also had con-
templated suicide because his arms were

OF antiseptics. Dr. Hyslop. a mental OK
pert. testified that Rutherford told him
he had a. dream q month before the
