And Let the German People Settle
Their Own Strife.

Paris, March l3. The opinion ex-
pressed in official circles at the moment
is that the allied governments will
take an attitude Of aloofness and de.
taehment toward the civil strife in
Germany and permit the German peo.
pie themselves to determine the form
OF their government The armed dis.
orders in Germany are looked upon as
most unfortunate both for that coun.
try and the remainder of Europe at
the time when reconstruction had been
begun.

The campaign for Duluth's new
Labor Temple is on in earnest. SUBJ
scriptions for stock by unions and
members are coming in surprisingly
WE'LL The directors are exec edingly
we'll pleased with the way organized
labor is taking hold.
The Labor Temple association has
opened offices at Trade Union hall, %
East First street, where the main bus
mess of the association will be con-
Quoted for the present. A clerk is en-
ployed and will be at the headquarters
from o'clock in the morning till five
in the evening. The office will also
be open from six to eight o'clock in
the evening.
When the stock -selling campaign
began the Sheet Metal Workers union
was the first to subscribe. Fourteen
me mbers purchased $3.50 worth Of
stock, an average of s25 each. The
Electrical Workers union, No. 81,
with II members present, bought $3.50
worth, an average Of nearly two
shares to each member present. The
delegates of the Metal Trades council
purchased an average of five shares
each The council took five shares of
STOCK
The Blacksmiths' union will sub
scribe later, but seven of it's members
purchased % shares, which brought
their average to better than three
shares per member. The Shipbuild-
ers' union took 10 shares in it's own
name and 10 members present pur-
chased 20 shares. The Lathers' union
has promised to subscribe later and
seven Of its members have subscribed
for $240 worth of stock.
The office and directors of the La
Dor Temple association have shown
their confidence in the project by
subscribing for five shares each. G.

WORK SPAN|ARDS:
At MORGAN PARK
Steel Trust Trying Them Out to
Take Places Of Negro and
S|aV Workers.

An interesting study Of the great
labor problem may be made right
here at home where more than $50
Spaniards have been brought to the
city to work at the plant Of the Min
nesota Steel company at Morgan
Park. Most ofthem are working under
D. M. Clough. member of the board
Of education, who is doing construc-
ton work at the plant. Others. have
been transferred to the plant proper.
It is said that the Steel Trust is try
ing out Spanish labor at Morgan Park,
and if it proves satisfactory many
more Spanish laborers will be brought
here to take the places Of southern
negroes who leave here in large num-
bers every season at the beginning of
cold weather.
Then, too, it is said, that the ne
groes. like the laborers from Austria
and the Slav countries, have been get
ting too independent since the war
and are asking higher wages and
shorter hours, even going so far as to
talk unionism. It is held by the Steel
Trusts employment agents that the
Spanish workmen will be easy exploit
ing at low wages for some years yet,
and they will not take readily to the
American workers ways, not at least
until they shall have earned sufficient
money to bring their families here.
after which some time will elapse be-
fore their wives and children will
climb to American standards. The
period of submission and the process
Of change to the American wax will
take fully 10 years.
The Spanish workers at Morgan
Park are employed, it is said, IL hours
a day. They begin work at six in the
morning, take half-hour for lunch
and quit at $3.50 in the evening. AS
they cannot talk English, it is not
known what wages they are paid. In
any event Duluth is having its first
taste Of Europe's cheapest labor.
brought here to work for the biggest
and richest corporation on earth,
