WASHINGTON, March Z. The over
crowdng of the casual embarkation
camp at st. Afghan, France, was large
ly due to soldiers concealing their true
physical condition in their anxiety to
return to this country, Major General
Harbord, chief of the service of supply
of the overseas forces, Informed the
War Department to-day in a cabled re-
port of his inspection Of the big camp.
The present conditions at St. Afghan,
Harbord reports, are satisfactory as to
food, shelter, sleeping quarters and
heat. Duckboards have been laid in
practically all occupied portions of The
camp, sick and wounded are properly
cared for, and more perfect system
of operation has been attained.
General Harbord's cable follows:
"Prior to November II st. Afghan
was used primarily as replacement
camp, and its facilities constructed
accordingly. After November II it
was converted into a casual cmbarka-
ton camp. While the camp was being
constructed for embarkation pur-
poses it had to handle troops received
from two directions, requirements
passing through for the front and
B and c class casuals passing through
from the front to scaports. Due to
the sudden change from cxpatriation
to repatriation of troops, this camp
was handling and c class evacuces
before it was prepared to do so. Due to
the incomplete state of reconstruction

CITY'S POLITICS PECULIAR
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

CHICAGO. ILL.,. April 15.-Seven
years ago in this city with it's en-
vironment of big industry. a group
of men and women. christening them
selves progressives, wrote the Bull
Moose platform of social justice. The
Bull Moose party died. but it's doc
trines lived. and today there is no
more striking phase of this period
of transition twiXt war and peace
than the movement among employers,
at least to understand and analyze,
if not always Immediately to apply.
principles that may bring about a
democratiZation of industry.
1t is too early to say whether the
effort to anticipate trouble arises
out of a fear of something considered
remote. intangible like the bolshe
vism of foreign lands or whether it
is a recognition simply of the part
nership OF labor. Anyway, employers
are asking questions and trying eX-
periments. Many who never heard of
the platform of the British labor party
are asking those who do know about
it to come and lecture to them.

Shows a Changed Attitude.


But that wasn't all of the surprises
Mr.. Walker began laughingly with
the statement that he had had many

this time, but to tell some things that
ought to be told. And he proceeded
to tell them with a persuasivenesa
and emphasis that won applause re-
ptatedly Yes. the employers applaud
ed him.
The incident itself is typical Of tho
new spirit with which the age-oi,1
controversy between capital and Ia hor
IS being approached. Labor is de-
manding many things. and employers
are beginning to say: Yes, we shall
MAINTAIN MAJ the high-wage scale, but

Forming a Labor Party.

Those who believed the Federation
of Labor was opposed to political or
ganization as such find the leaders
thereof engaged in forming the Illinois
labor party. Chicago has at least
100000 laboring men, yet only 81 900
voted the labor party ticket in the city
election recently. And the socialists
are accused by some of the labor lead
ers OF falling to support the labor
ticket. But the labor vote was not
the only thing that got in a. tanEle.
Out OF 100000 votes more than 400, 900
were cast for five candidates. who ran
against William Hale Thompson, yet
ne was elected by plurality of 1900.
somebody has figured it out that at
least 10000 negroes can vote in Chi
cago, enough to swing an election like
that. 1t seems pretty well agreed that
Mr. Thompson rallied the .dissa tisfied.
among them the pro-Germans of war
days, and drew strength from both
the democratic as well as republican
parties.
But Chicago seems as illoRical as
New York when it comes to choosing
mayors. and a city with more than
100000 Germans in it is just as likely
as not to re-elect a man who refused
| to receive Marshal Joffre
This is an age of surprises, though
not merely in politics. Just a few
days ago for example. the Illinois
Manufacturers Association had
banquet. And at that banquet, John
walker. former vice president of
State Federation of Labor, was a
guest and speaker. Now there is no
man IN Illinois who has fought the
Walker. Yet he was invited to ait al
the guest table and make a speech.
such thing would have been un-
thlnkabie a few years ago.

Consider Workers Welfare.

,, Inquiries to Chicago business con-
Germs about their systems of profit
sharing and welfare work are multi
plying. The International Harvester
Company has a profit-sharing scheme
that is attracting nationwide atten-
tlon and an organization plan which
is designed to give the workers all
out the so-called disadvantages of in
reference by outside organizations
between employers and their men.
Some of this the labor leaders are
wondering about, for il the manufac-
turers once give their employees a
snare In the concerns profits and an
opportunity to discuss wages and
hours directly through regularly
chosen spokesmen some of the talking
points of the union might disappear
1t is the plan which Samuel Gompers
cheap imitation of trade unionism."
The harvester plan may or may not
be meritor:ous.. but there's an element
OF humor in the competition between
employers and union leaders each
seeking to prove his system is more
beneficial to the worker.
The big fact is that the welfare of
the To.l:-.isman is no longer a thing
being discussed only by settlement
workers and academicians. Boards of
directors talk about it and appoint
committees to hire experts and sug-
gest practical plans. Leaders of both
capital and labor are alert, not all of
them to be sure, for stubbornness and
self1shness has not yet departed from
human nature. Labor is conscious of
itself. Maybe Europe has encouraged
1t. Anyhow. the situation is far from
clear and full of inconsistencies.

A NARROW ESCAPE

What came near being a very seri-
Gus accident occurred Wednesday
afternoon when George Ewing's auto
truck collided with J. X. Smawleys
Ford. Mr.. Smawley, with his
daughter, Pauline, and Mabel Henry,
was driving east on Main street and
the truck, driven by Harry Douglas,
was coming south on Alder street.
At the intersection of the streets the
truck struck the rear end of the
Ford. tipping it over and smashing
the windshield. Mr.. Smawley and
the girls were thrown out but escaped
without injury, and the machine was
not much damaged except for the
smashing of the windshield and the
tearing of the back curtains. Had
not Mr.. Smawley speeded up, when
he saw the danger, the truck would
have hit the middle of his car with
probably fatal results.
