FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.

Sufhcient is Encwr of the ravases of tuberculosis to arouse the interest of the whole country in doing every thing possible to keep the disease to the minimum. Much has already been done through the appropriations made by states and through the work of or ganizations. The aim has been to cure or help those who can be, to relieve the suffering of those upon whom the white plague has placed its indeiible stamp and also to protect those who may be inclined to be tuhercular as well as the well from getting the dis ease. 70,
 A long and persistent campaign ot education has been conducted but 1t is evident in spite of it that there is too little regard for the danger that ex- ists in every community from the dis ease. In fact there are many conmu- mites where tuberculosis prevails in :ts incipient stage without it being re- garded as such and the menace ot such cases to the uninformed as well as the rest of the public can be fully appreciated.
 For the purpose of awake ming the communities of the country where danger exists. and where 1t is not gen. orally realized, the National Tubercu- losis association is engaged in con ductins in-snsive campaigns for the purpose of checking the increase oi the disease and removing the blindert from those cities and towns which ar' at f11fir al +p he iGf ing situation.
 For tho purpose Of providing funds for the work of this organization whose object is to help and protec humanity, a ten day sale of Red Cros! seals is to be inaugurated the first O December Such sales were not helt during the war because of the man, demands but will be resumed in nehal of cause that is in every. way wor. thy and will command the support 0 the whole country through big ant little purchases.

GOOD REcoMMEHpA+1oNs.

ft has been pretty conclusively demonstrated. and even admitted. that the steel strike is lost inasmuch as mills are starting up and the strikers are returning. but there is neverthe- lees interest in the report of the~sen- att committee that has been investi- -gi1ing 1t. This committee did not set ,otk 10 settle 1t; 1t was seeking the faets leading up to 1t and it went in- .tot the matter 10 considerable length THe regult is that in it's opinion there iwSs blame on both sides and there are steps Shat ought to be taken to avoid isisiiaz conditions prevailing in the fuSme.
 The par. that radical leaders hay, ,pleyed in organizing the strike was na overlooked and blame is placed urpp the American Federation of La bof for permitting such. Dangerous les6ers have worked among the alier erSpioyes aud in such fields have spsead dangerous doctrines witt thsss people biindly following likt shfep. On the other hand the stee lrnfn are blamed fer the Gary refusa ltosreeefvs the employees representa- ltiSks even though they represented loz1y minority.

ASCENDING THE STRIKE

The action taken by the leaders of me sort coal miners in calling off the strike that has prevailed since tbe nrst or the month is what the country anticipated. The fact that thev are Americans. as Acting President Lewis said. and could not fight the govern nent Is a plausible attitude to take put they seem to think more of their American connection when forced to ooey the laws of the country than they did when they showed deiance to an that stood in the way of their un- dertaking.
 After having seriously interrupted Inc production of coal for eleven dav, h IS 10 be sincerely hoped that the miners who followed the order. to strlke will recognize the position in which they have been placed and in. sSmuch as some of them have claim Cd they knew very little about tbe merits Of the demands on which the suike was based but believed the, Efre all right because their leaders had told them so. return to work and endeavor to do what lies within thei, power to make up the coal shortage they have created.
 In the meantime the resembling o- the strike order opens the way fo, the adjustment of the differences ina, sxist between the miners and the on. erato-s. and the miners must reaIiz. rom the attitude the people of th, country have taken that the ccurs, they took on top of the outraEeous de. hands that they made had failed fl gain public, sympathy Nevertheless. there is no reason why the demand. Of the miners cannot be adjusted ir accordance with the facts. Such couIf have been done without the calling O strike had there been the disposition on the part of their leaders or hat -here been willingness to listen tt me appeals of the president and tn, department Of labor.
 The same channels for getting th, demands passed upon are open nov as they were before the strike but tn miners union and other labor orsani sations that have supported them hav suffered loss in prestige that it vii be hard to regain. It has been show thzt one organization or one class i not going to dictate to the country.

ENOUGH TROUBLE AT HOME.

While sentiment runs strong against the desire of the allied nations to have this government accept the mandate for Armenia, no definite ac- ton upon it has been taken. Appar- entity it is being delayed until afte, action is taken upon the treaty of peace with the league of nations from which the mandate would be received. While members of the commission that was sent to investigate conditions in Armenia have expressed themselves against the United States undertaking any such task Major Harbord who was its head is on his way home with his report concerning conditions as he found them in Asia Minor and Trans. caucasia. That will elicit interest but it is doubtful if it will change the at- titude already strongly expressed against the undertaking.
 Armenia wants the United States tC accept the mandate It has confidencC in this country, but what it wants i: only what Albania wants and once we get started trying to institute sound ] government in foreign territory there
 
 our services. In fact it is even inti. mated that in view of the fact tha Armenia is entirely surrounded by Turkish territory that it would be nex to impossible to deal with it separate ly and if we were to accept the man l date for Armenia we really ought t. accept it for all Turkey. It seems t, be the plan even though it may no have been so expressed to have tn whole Turkish situation cleared up b, throwing it over onto the Unitet States.
 We have always been interested i tiie Armenians and will continue to be Our sympathy and help will not b rt strieted to assistance after msssa cres or i'll treatment but our provinc does not lie in the near east. We hay enough trouble at or nearer home an some other solution than an America mandate for Armenia or Turkey mus be worked out.

 Problems of capital and labor, now confronting England and the United States, make the rise of the famous craft guilds. in Utrecht, a timely sub ject.
