General Principles

Article 427.-The high contracting
parties. recognizing that the we'll being,
physical. moral, and Intellectual, OF
industrial wage earners is Of supreme
international Importance. have framed.
In order to further this great end,
the permanent machinery provided for
in Section l. and associated with that
OF the league of nations.
They recognize that differences Of
climate, habits and customs, of .co.
nomic opportunity and industrial tradi .
tion, make strict uniformity in the con
dition Of labor difficult of immediate at e.
tainment. But, holding as they do tbat
labor should not be regarded merely AZ
an article of commerce. they think that
there are methods and principles for
regulating labor conditions which all in /.
dustrial communities should endeayor To
apply, so far as their special circum
stances will permit.
Among these methods and principles.
the following seem to the high contract
ing parties to be Of special and urgent
Importance
First-The guiding principle above
enunciated that labor should not be re
garded merely as a commodity or arti
Gle of commerce.
Second-The right of associatio for
all lawful purposes by the employed as
we'll as by the employers.
Third-The payment to the employed
a wage adequate to maintain a reason
able standard of life as this is under
stood in their time and country.
Fourth-The adoption of an eight hour
day or a forty eight hour week as tht
standard to be aimed at where it ha.
not already been attained.
Fifth-The adoption OF a weekly res
of at least twenty four hours, which
should include Sunday wherever prac
! ticable.
Sixth-The abolition of child labo
and the imposition of such limitation,
on the labor of young persons as shal
permit the continuation Of their educa
ton and assure their proper physica
development.
Seventh-The principle that men an,
women should receive equal remunera
ton for work of equal value.
Eighth-The standard set by law il
each country with respect to the con
ditions of labor should have due regari
! to the equitable economic treatment O
all workers lawfully resident therein.
Ninth-Each state should make pro
vision for a system OF inspection, il
which women should take part, in ordc

which, he represented the district of
Vryheid.
At the beginning of the Boer war
in 1899 he was Yeldt. Cornet for that
district. Joining the Boer forces in
northern Natal he soon rose to high
commands.
He was in charge of the Boer forces
at the battle of Colenso and Spionkop
and following the death of General r..
]. Joubert, he was made commander
in chief of the Transaal Beers.
After the fall of Pretoria he reor-
ganized the Beers with a view to pro-
longed guerilla warfare, his forces of
fering steady resistance to the British
up until late in 1901.
Following the peace negotiations be-
tween the Beers and the British Gen
eral Botha took leading role in the
period of reconstruction. After the
grant. of self government to the Trans %
vaal in 1907, General Botha was called
upon to form government.
From this position he resigned in De-
cember, 1912, owing to dissension in
the cabinet, but was Immediately asked
to form n new government. At the
outbreak of the great war in 1914,
General Botha took command Of the

Union forces in southwest Africa,
achieving complete success and com
pelling the German troops in that re-
gion TO surrender. With General Jan
Christian Smutts. General Botha signed
the peace treaty with Germany on be-
half of the Union of South Africa, June
2S last. He arrived at Capetown from
Europe on July %.
T-p to the outbreak Of the Boer War
in 1890. Botha was employed chiefly
as raiser Of sheep and cattle.
He opposed the drift toward war and
voted against the ultimatum which
President Kruger sent to England, but
once the hostilities had begun he vol
unteered and began what developed into
a successful military career.
His clever tactics defeated the Eng
lish at Colenso. and by very skillful ma
neuvering he led in person small
force which scaled Spion Kop, in the
face of terrific fire, and dislodged the
British. General Joubert died three
days after this battle, and General
Botha was chosen commander in chief
of the Boer forces. He fought the
last set battle of the war at Lydcnbcrg
on September s, 1901.

.THE THlRTIETH DID 1T.
Pershins Gives Old Hickory Credit for
Breaking Hindy Line.

But it's special glory will always be
the honor you won by breaking the
Hindenburg line on September ",
wrote Gen. John ]. Pershing to Maj.
Gen. Edward NJ. Lewis, commanding
the Thirtieth division. These words
from the commander in chief of the
American eXpeditionary forces are but
another evidence that the troops from
this section were the ones that actu-
ally smashed the Hindenburg line. A
recent statement from the chief OF
staff, GeneralMarch, also presents this
fact, so that it would seem that it is
time for argument on this subject to
cease.
Reviewing the record of the division,
General Pershing said in part:
After it's preliminary training the
division entered the line on July 16,
where it remained almost continuous
" until the end of October. In that
time it was in the actual battle from
the 3Oth of August and took part in
the Ypres- -Lys and both the linden
burg and the lie Catelet-Nauroy lines,
capturing Bellicourt and Nauroy, an
operation on which all subsequent ac-
ton of the Fourth British army de-
pended. From October Z, to October
90 the division advanced % kilometers
in a continued series of attacks, cap
turing 2,253 Of the enemy. Brancourt,
Fremont, Busigny, st. Bernin, ST.
Souplet and Escaufor La Halle,
Mineresse and VauX Andigny, are
names which will live in the memories
of those who fought in the Thirtieth
division. But its especial glory will
always be the honor you won by break
ing the Hindenburg line on September
%. Such a record is one of which we
are all proud" =

CHEAPER FLOUR.
U. S. Grain Corporation Makes lmpor-
tant Announcement.


To prove that rumors concerning
scarcity of flour and advancing prices
are baseless, the United States grain
corporation announced from its New
York headquarters Wednesday that II
would enable consumers to buy the
best -four at lower prices. ,,.
Pure straight -four, made Of the fin
est wheat viii be- sbld by the COR
poration td;t the retail trade in l. quar-
ter and "a 10 pound packages. 1t will
be available = in about two weeks and
the price to the consumer win be about
Is cents for the smaller package.
Mr.. Barnes said that th8E grain cor
poratioI.'s action '"puts the solution Of
one phase of the cost OF living prob
lem up to the consumer by making it
possible for the purchaser of flour to
decide for himself whether he will con-
tinue to pay fancy prices for q such
brands or buy at lower price pure
flour made from the finest
wheat"
Rumors, possibly inspired by over
jealous -four statesmen, he said, had

been current in the market from time
to time OF an impending Hour short
age and the possibility thai the use Of
substitutes, would he resumed. He de-
clared there vas no authority in the
present food regulations for restoring
war flour.
While certain grades Of flour are
scarce, owing TO the short crop Of
spring wheat the total wheat crop is
91S,OO0,O)0 bushels this year against
917,0OO,OO0 last year, according to Nj.
Barnes. =. ..
Production of flour for the season
ending November amounted to g.
4S$,000 barrels against 43,174,000 last
year, he said. Exports have been
about the same as last yes.r. .r.
"The &actS are" he said, that stocks
of -four are very large and production
very large. Therefore the wheat direc-
tor has determined TO pace in the
hands of the retail trade, in the large
cities particularly, supply OF flour
from the immense stocks of the grain
corporation at nominal prces."
