THEIR HUMAN SIDE

Sam Gompers, who stands at the
head of organized labor in these
crucial days of readjustment, has a
very human side. Occupying a speci-
ally reserved place of honor on his
desk is battered. brown cottony rab-
bit. with a dangling ear, cork leg
and a false eye. These are the scars
OF many hard-fought campaign, for
Brer Rabbit is Sam Gompers' mascot
He has an International reputation.
He is known from the Atlantic to the
Pacific and from the great lakes to
the gulf This dilapidated wad of
cotton has attended all the federation
conventions for years. and brought
Sam" luck.
Mr.. Gompers feels the good for
tune that this mascot brings him is
the spirit of loyal and efficient serv-
ice transmitted by his private secre-
tary, Miss r. Lee Guard. little south
ern lady, with heart attuned to Uncle
Remus' heart throbs.
1t was Miss Guard who one day
saw the likeness to Uncle Remus'
Brer Rabbit. 1t was after Sam had
passed VIGOROUSLY through trying
ordeal. The play of wits between
tempting to pin him into some in
escapable corner made Miss Guard
think of the mental adrOitness of Sam
Gompers in similar trying situations,
and she found the rabbit-so human
looking, with a CLINT of knowingness
in his eye, an all-pervading air of
good will, an absence of bitterness in
his makeup.
That's the opinion Sam Gompers'
secretary has of him. after working
with him for quarter of a century,
through storm and stress-and a
private secretary's good opinion is a

Has Political Possibilities.

His trip across the country. which
probably will be in the nature of
triumphal return, has in it political
possibilities for an emotionally in
clined people. The wiseheads in both
political parties believe America has
had a surfeit of emotion. anG that
soldier candidates would not be popu-
lar. Certainly Gen. Woods boom.
which has in it a note of censure for
the democrats because they didn't let
him go overseas, has a bearing on
Gen. Pershing's chances. The Wood
supporters claim Pershing was a
party to the conspiracy whereby Gen.
Wood was kept at home. So far as
soldier candidates go, Gen. Wood has
made tremendous hea6way in the
west. and Gen. Pershing has all that
region in which to travel and a great
deal more.
The first thing he probably will do
as BELTS man who wishes the
political lightning to strike him-is
to say emphatically that he is not
candidate and that he doesn't want
the Office. All of this Gen. Pershing
is said to be prepared to do. Then it
will be the business of the political
managers to learn whether the popu-
lar reaction to Pershing's return is
sufficient to make him the choice of
the party. Whatever else may happen
to John ]. Pershing in the next two
months. he will not be able to esca pc
the staring and scrutiniZing eyes of
the political leaders and their trusted
inspectors Of public opinion.

Leaders Watch Public Senti-

Possible Candidacy.
HIS ATTITUDE UNCERTAIN
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Gen. Pershing's departure from
France. the victorious commander of
the greatest expeditionary force in
American history. has put thrills of
expectancy into the political camp
here-and for reasons that present
an amusing paradox.
The democrats are hoping Gen.
PerShing will come back in a fShtlng
mood and expose what they construe
as a picayune effort to find fault with
the War Departments war enterprise
in France. Many republicans hope
Gen. Pershing's political complexion.
which has thus far remained vague
and imperceptible. may take on a re-
publican color, and whether or not
he is the candidate of the republican
party for President there may be de-
rived at least the pleasant advantage
of pointing with pride" to the COM
mander- in-chief of Americas biggest
army asia republican.
But if Gen. Pershing has any political
ambitions. he must acquire strength on
the basis of his accomplishments in
F'rance--and just now many committees
of the republican Congress are busily
engaged in investigations designed to
prove that the democratic administra-
tion made more or less of fiZzle of
everything connected with the war. Also
there are many in Congress who want to
see the whole American venture IN
France exposed not merely as to mat
ters financial, but matters military. par
ticularly as to the advance of American
troops ordered a couple hours before the

Enrolled in Auxiliary Corps.

In addition to this, large numbers
of Egyptians were enrolled in labor
and transport corps auxiliary to the
British forces. These men were en-
listed for short terms of three to six
months and did the manual and un-
skilled labor for Gen. Allenby'S forces.
AS such their services were of high
value. and they released for the fight
ing line men who. otherwise, would
have been engaged in the rear.
How many of these men passed
through the labor corps cannot be
stated. but the total enlistments at
one moment amounted to between S0,-
600 and 10000. OF the labor corps
men some came under fire while dig
ging trenches and transporting stores
and ammunition near the front and
casualties were suffered. ] cannot
give the figures authC ritatively. but
believe there were altogether about
1.500 killed and wounded during the
four years of the war;
