Voluntary Effort and Full Cooperation In Industry VIII Bring to

What does American labor want ?"
asks William L. Chenery. in the St..
Louis Globe Democrat. The chief of
its principal desires he believes. is the
complete acceptance OF union organ
ization and collective bargaining.
Labor IS against the use Of injunc-
tions for the reason that injunctions
interfere with the working Of COL
lective bargaining. For the very same
reason, labor is opposed to compul-
sorry arbitration. Because the faith
OF the federation is focused upon or
ganlzation and collective bargaining,
Mr.. Chenery is of the opinion that
the demands of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor are negative
Industrial Question: Paramount.
When President Wilson came back
from Paris with the peace treaty, a.
year ago. the industrial problem and
the intricacies of it stirred mems
minds more than the league of ma
tons.
And the things have not improved
IN the intervening II months. The
Boston policemen's strike, the Steel
coal and railroad strikes, and numer-
Gus other industrial troubles. have
given ell Americans information of
the fact that the millennium has not
arrived, at least so far as tho work.

Congress has enacted a unique law
in the expectation of maintaining in

sas has created her Industrial rela-

show that there is quite an UNDER

The declarations by both the Amer

WHEN St. PAUL & DULUTH =
ROAD WAS THE: "SCALtY"

The old st. Paul & Duluth rail-
road which in 1899 was sold to the
Northern Pacific, was known among
railroad employees as, the "Scally.".
Even toda y railroad men use the slang
term when referring to trains, run
ming between here and the Twin Cities
on the N. P:
What is the origin Of the term i?
In the early sos most of the I'M
skilled laborers on the old St. Paul
& Duluth were Scandinavians, all new
arrivals in the United States, and
unfamiliar with our language.
When one of them was asked where
he worked it was difficult for him
to say: THE st. Paul & Duluth rail-
road" He tried his best to pronounce
the words as English speaking per-
sons would do, but he got as near to
it as he could by saying in Swedish
dialect: "The Skal-a-Hoot." Railroad
men used this term for years until
finally the "Hoot' was dropped, the
"a" was changed to sound like ~"
and the word was pronounced
"scally" as now.

competent group as is formed by
the members of the presidents Sec
ond industrial conference too much
the same position as the A. F. Of L.
The presidents conference, while pro-
viding for a representative Of the
public, left the actual settlement Of
labor difficulties in the hands Of rep
resentative of the workers and Of the
employers. It relied, also, on the
principle Of voluntary adjustment in
general industry. That is where or
ganlzed labor stands today.
60. How to Fix Wages.
When it is said that labor wants
the full acceptance of union organ
1zation and collective bargaining,
pretty comprehensive statement is
made. The end of the desires of the
workers is envisaged by their own
answer, which in part says:
There is widespread belief that
wages should be fixed on a cost-of-
living basis. This idea is pernicious
and intolerable: It means putting
progress in chains and liberty in fet-
ters.' It means fixing a standard of
life and liberty which must remain
fixed. Americas workers cannot. &C
cept that proposition,
"They demand a. progressively ad-
vancing standard of life. They have
an abiding faith in better future
for all mankind. They discard and
denounce a. system of fixing wages
solely on the basis Of family budgets
and bread bills. Workers are entitled
not only to a living. but modern 80
ciety must provide more than is un-
derstood by the term living" It
must concede to all workers a fairer
reward for their contribution to So
ciety contribution without which a
progressing civilization is impossible"
> This admission is but the natural
longing Of every and any class Ct
American citizens. It is. but a. dec
laration Of their belief in the prin-
ciple of liberty, upon which our ma
tional institutions are based.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET.

New York. July 10-The session of the stock market today was of the usual midsummer weekend variety, consisting largely of settlements of speculative contracts. Dealings were light, but fair ly borda, rails displaying pronounced strength. Primer tendencies among transportations were coincident with the government crop report issued after the class of yesterdays market, in which forecasts invariably assures bountiful crops of principal cereals, with a wheat surplus for export

 The monthly tonnage report of the United States Steel Corporation for June showed only a nominal increase but at that brought the amount of thrilled or ders up to the highest total in exactly three years
 Dealings in bonds were relatively much more active than the turnover in stocks.

 The heavy batting of the Brooklyn anad Cleveland clubs, with respective team averages for the past week oi .SS7 and .344 enabled them to oust theil rivals from the coveted top position The spurt of the Chicago Americans in winning IT of their past 21 games promises to bring about three-cor- nered fight in the younger league.
 The Brooklyn Nationals, who have won fifteen games in IT, possess 3 pitching staff that should be useful in coming. double headers. St. Louis displayed a strong attack against Chicago but fielded poorly in the Brooklyn series, Pittsburgh, after holding Cincinnati even, dropped three out of five to the tail-end Philadelphi- ans.
 In the American league, Cleveland appears to have difficulty in keeping ahead of New York despite the Yan- kees' recent lapse. Washington failed to continue it's winning work against Cleveland, the Senators losing theil fifth game today in the six game se- ries.
 Boston began the week with heavy

.KACEYS GET BIC END OF SCORE

The Norwich K of C. team defeated She All Insurance team of Hartford by the score of to yesterday afternoon at the fair grounds. Daust pitched the best game of the season, and had the Hartford team at his mercy during the entire afternoon. He allowed only four hits, but kept them so scattered that none of them counted in the scoring. He also contributed hit in the fourth inning that scored man from second.
 The Hartford team proved a very fast team, but poor base running and failure to hit in pinches made them lose few chances to score. Red Mo Gill pitched a good game, but was touched frequently when hits were ncede. G. Meade, Foley and McGill were the only Hartford men who hit P1ust safely. The All Insurance SCOT ed it's lone tally in the second when Ienhcff after being. caught between third and home crossed the plate when the ball was dropped.

had gathered runs. They added one in the fifth, one in the sixth, five in the 7th and four more in the eighth, mak- ing it 1S to 1, which the visitors scored in the 5th.
 As the score would indicate the game was slow and uninteresting but there were several real classy baseball stunts pulled off. For the visitors J. Vittner in left field pulled down a couple of hits that were labeled for. extra bases. Mcdonald at first also played fine ball. In the sixth inning, with second and third bases occupied by visitors and none out, one of the most thrilling plays ever pulled on the local diamond was executed by the home club. Le- claire, at short, made seemingly i'm possible catch of a line drive over short, running with the ball and talk ing it over his shoulder, he turned and threw to third, and Dugas shot the pill to second completing a triple play.
 Next Sunday White Rock, the run -ner-up in the R. I. State league, will be at Ashland park and it is hoped by the management that the fans will not be disappointed. The score:
