ARMOUR DEVELOPS
SOCIAL UNREST, CHARGE

Washington, March 21.-J. Ogden Ar
mour, Of Chicago, was charged with
developing social unrest in this country
in statement issued tonight by Frank
Morrison. secretary OF the American
Federation OF Labor.
The packer and his associates bring
JOY to the heart of every believer in
revolutionary methods" said Secretary
Morrison.
Mr.. Morrison called attention to the
attitude of the Kansas City Railway
company, which has. on two occasions.
rejected an award by the national war
labor board. with the result that the
$500 employees are unemployed.
The strikers point out that Mr.. Ar
mour is the majority stakeholder of
this company. They have been denied
the right to negotiate with the COM
pany on working conditions, 1t Is stated.
This Kansas City situation" says
Secretary Morrison. illustrates the po-
sition of the American Federation OF
Labor on the question of social unrest !:
that the cause Of this unrest must be
removed. rather than rely on legislation
and deportation.
''Mr. Armour and his associates bring
JOY to the heart of every believer in
revolutionary methods, The revolution
list looks upon these business men a.
their best propa gandist. because their
h@atuityh r. ganf form. at collective bar
gaining on tffss part oftthe workers
makes 1t unnecessary for the revolu.
ZIONIST to prove his point that consti-
tutlonal methods are of no avail.
Mr.. Armour. of course. would re-
sent the charge that he is developing
an unnecessary unrest in this country.
He and men of similar mind refuse
to see that. whenever the American
ideal of orderly processes and elemen-
tai right are replaced by autocracy, the
revolutionist Is handed his strongest
weapon-practical illustration"

PROBLEM OF LABOR.

one OF the most startling construc-
i've triumphs of recent ;ears in m
dustry has been won by the owner Of
some wooden mills, whose fundamen-
tai principle has been TO arouse, the
/ cooperation of his mployees. His
ioremen have been promo ted accord
ing 10 the success they have had in
finding ways of developing the ideas

month. II there are enough of them
4 the industrial problem, which is the
underlying problem now and for our
! children, can be solved without the
disturbances which we now call Boil
! shevism.
The steady, careful but rapid pro-
/ gress toward copartnership between
capital and labor cannot he made by
men who think they have been made
I by heaven the exclusive repositories
or wisdom. There is a certain manu-
facturer of automobiles in this coun-
try who has deserved extremely well
OF the world. He has made farm lie
more satisfactory. He has potentially
, lowered the cost OF distribution. He
has known how to standardize sue
cessfully. to keep essentials, to reject
all else, and not to be diverted from
his original great idea. Also he has
proved that high wages can be made
the most profitable system for the
manufacturer. Yet there Is O. limit
10 the sociological success achieved by
this man. He has not created a con-
, dltion as satisfying and as full OF So

WOMAN BURGLAR At
T. GREEN HOME MONDAY

After frightening away burglars at
the home Of Everett Green, IT'S West
| Love street about 2 O'Clock Monday
morning examination of the foot
| prints around the window disclosed
the fact that at least one of the would
be burglars was a woman.
Nj. Green was awakened about 2
o'clock by a noise in the rear Of his
home. He supposed it was his sister
in-law, Miss Mildred Franks, who re-
sides there, and did not get up right
away. A little later he heard the
noise again and got up to investigate.
He went to the rea of the house and
discovered that someone was trying to
effect an entrance. The burglar or
burglars evidently heard Mr.. Green
however, time to make his or their
escape. Mr.. Green heard a sharp
whistle which was Immediately an
swered by another one.
He went to the front door and look
ing out, saw a mar and woman going
hurriedly down the street. Whether
these were the ones who had tried to
enter the house, he does not know.
But they were the only persons he
saw.
The print of a small heel the size
Of a woman's shoe was plainly indent-
ed in the lettuce bed near the window.
Evidently the burglars who at
tempted to break into the Everett
Green home Sunday night were the
same ones who took a bunch of auto
mobile tools from the R. A. Maxwell
garage the same night. Mr.. Mark
well is a neighbor of Mr.. Green and
the theft was discovered the next day.
The tools were taken out of the car.
This is the second robbery of this
kind at the Maxwell home.
