ORGANIZATION IS
PERFECTED FOR
SPECIAL S. S. DAY
Interesting Meeting Of Sunday School
Workers Held Tuesday Evening
When Plans Are Made For
Large Attendance on
Special Day.

The County Sunday School Com
mittee which met at the Christian
Church last evening elected the fol-
lowing committee to have full charge
of the Go-to-Sunday- School Day Pro-
gram in this county:
Chairman, Mrs. ]. s. Burwell.
Vice Chairman, Rev. Nicholas.
Secretary, Mrs. Joseph Wells.
Treasurer, Miss Florence Wilson,.
Publicity Committee: Miss Anna
Shackleford, Chairman; Mr.. Carl
Dodds and Superintendent W. ]. Cap
linger.
Last year under the official leader
ship of Mrs. Burwell, the day was a
great success and with her able as
sistants. we can only hope for great
er success. On special days like this
we are prone to count success by the
number attending which is only one
element Of success.
1t has been observed. that the work
of the Sunday School was not normal
or up to the usual standard on these
days due to the crowds, and as con-
sequence those who attend for this
day only, are not impressed with the
work and do not become regular men,
bers of any Sunday School, so to over
come this, the Committee, recon-
mends to all of the schools to lengthen
the class period and conclude with a
summary talk by either pastor or SUI
perintendent.
Mr.. ]. H. Richardson was elected
Attendance Secretary, whose DUTY will
be to receive the attendance Of al
schools in the county and publish
them in Mondays papers of each weel
from now unit! Go-to-Sunday Schoo
Day, Mary 4th.
Every Superintendent is requested
to phone the attendance of his schoo
to him Sunday p. m =, preferably be
tween 1 and 2 o'clock.
Let every one who believes that th'
Sunday School Is factor in the build
ing Of our citizenship, BOOST to max
this a great day and Mason the Ban
ner County.

eat for over three days. But, W, went over just the same, and believ' me had enough when it was over We crossed the river Vesle and ad vanced across an open plain, and Vt sure got the schrapnel and bullets Many of the poor fellows fell there but was lucky again, couldn't seen to hit me, but anyway I got a gooo many shots at them, and 1 only stop. ped shooting when my gun got so hot it wouldn't work. I had shot quail and rabbits, but it isn't half the sport that shooting Dutchmen is. That night we were relieved by the 127th Infantry, and we went to the rear, and talk about eats we had them that night after getting to where our kitchen was,
 The next day when the Company was lined up it amounted to a small platoon. Most of the men were gass- ed, few were wounded and killed. The whole Division was relieved August 5th, and we got speech from
  our General, then moved a few kilo- meters back to some woods and went to training again.
 We'll, Don, let me tell you I had enough of fighting right then, but I had plenty more of it before Novem- Der 11th., 1918 when the Armistiee was signed.

Aeronautic Future of United States
 Fraught With Great Uncertainty

Civil aerial transport in the United
 States, in other words America's aero
 nautical future, is fraught with great
 uncertainty.
 Despite the fact that numerous plans of commercial character are
 being formulated, we are threatened with dormant period of aerial achiement, as compared with the ex- treme activity which Europe is ex- pected to experience. Our problem is not technical one. We lack but one big thing, and that is a vigorous na- tional policy.
 On every hand the question is ask ed: "Has aerial navigation really commercial future?" It has, accord ing to competent opinion, but like any, thing else of new and revolutionary character, it must be developed. One of two things is advisable. If the government is to retain control of aeronautics, definite program must be adopted quickly, enabling the in dustry to pass safely through the per iod of several years that will inter- vene before commercial aviation can be placed on stable, self-supporting basis. Or else a free rein must be given so that private interests can proceed on their own resources and build aerial-transportation systems step by step as public support is won.
 The aeroplane is America's by right 'f discovery, but, in the opinion of judges, America must act, and do so quickly, if she is to reap Ter rightful measure of profit in its lse. a'4
 This suggests a number of perma- lent questions. What, for instance, Ire the benefits to be derived by aer- al transport, What can air craft do hat cannot be done more cheaply and satisfactorily by other mediums of transportation? Can they be consid- red reliable vehicles, when adverse 7eather conditions, motor limitations,
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1919-03-29

and thousand and one other thing
 are involved?
 These questions are not difficult tt
 answer. First of all, the aeroplan,
 is king for speed. That, and its abil
 ity to travel straight course between
 given places and thereby reduce mile
 age, are it's great points of merit. Its
 commercial success does not depend
 so much on it's ability to handle g
 large load as it does on the speed with which it delivers a small and impor- tant one. The public has been gross
 ly misled and has gained exceeding ly unfortunate ideas of aviation. Again and again encouragement has been given, in what the public has believed to be Thigh circles" to rain- bow projects utterly impossible of ac- complishment at the time, and known to be so by those fostering them. People have been led to believe that in few days, or few weeks at the most, certain epoch-making triumphs would be accomplished, and then have suffered disappointment. Any publi- city is better than no publicity, it is said, but in the instance of the air craft industry, ill-advised publicity, particularly before the war, but even now in evidence, has created the pop ular impression that aviation is "flighty" thing and that commercial aviation is indeed highly visionary. Men like Orville Wright, Grover Cleveland and Looming, Harold Tal- bolt, Jr., Chance Vought, and others of similar high standing are unani- nous in their condemnation of the practice, and most cognizant of the great injury it has worked.
 Mr. Wright, who is renowned for his conservatism, feels that the pub- lie has grown to overestimate both the danger of flying and the abilities of modern aeroplanes. On the other hand, Mir. Looming believes that think ing people have so long been fooled that they now really underestimate i he capacity of flying craft.

i ance of the program of the German 1 delegation is at least necessary. 1 We deem it requisite that all states should join in the agreement, even i though not belonging to the League ! of Nations.
 Tn order to guarantee to the work | ing classes. for whom the proposed | improvements are intended, cooper ation in the framing of these provis- i ions, the German delegation is of the opinion that representatives of the , national trade union organizations of all the contracting powers should be summoned to a. conference at Yer sailles to discuss and take decision on | international labor law, before the peace negotiations are terminated. | The proceedings of this conference ] should, in the opinion of the Ger jman delega ton, be based on the res olutions of the international trade union conference in Berne, February i , to g. 1919, and the program for in | ternational labor legisla tion, ,addr q ] to the peace conference tn Paris, which emanated from the decisions of the international trade unions con- ferenec in Leeds in 1916. At the re- quest of the trade unions Of Germany We beg to enclose a copy of these /! resolutions, which have been adopted
 
 union organizations of Bohemia, Bull garia, Denmark, Germany, France, 1 Greece, Holland, Italy, Canada, Nor way, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland, ISpain and Hungary.

 l "BROCKDORFF-R RAINFALL" The international agreement on labor law prepared by the German i government referred to in the note 1 of Count von Brockdorff-Ran was prepared in the German min 1 istry of labor some months ago and 1 first published on May l. Most of | this document is taken up with de- l tailed proposals for labor legislation, a number of which incorporated in l the international labor charter issued | by the syndical conference at Berne 1 in February. Very slight provision, l however, is made for the future con- l tfnuance of the international labor | legislator. Article VII, which con tains the proposition for an interna- 1 ttonal organization, speaks of an in ternational conference which would meet at least once in five years In it each power would have one vote and 1 a, four-ffths majority would be neces- sary before any resolutions would be binding upon it's members.
 A commission charged with the
 technical oversight of the decrees oi ] this conference is the only place
 where labor would have any direcr
 representation and corresponds, witr
 lesser powers, to have the interna-
 tional labor office arranged for in the
 terms of the Allies.
 The definite terms proposed al
 present include: Freedom of immi 1 grafton and the right of immigrant.
 to hold trade union privileges; the
 right of combination; social insur
 ance; the eight-hour day and the | weekly rest period; prohibition o-
 night work; the 14-year age limit fol
 child labor; medical supervision fo,
 juveniles; provision for the educa tion of young persons; the minimum l wage; and the protection of womer
 ir industry and of workers in dan
 gerous trades.
