gates of the unions comprising the
New York building trades council,
whose members recently received in
creases in pay, have had their wages
boosted too. They will receive a
minimum weekly salary Of $75, it
was announced to-day, and unions
who do not pay the new scale will
be refused seats in the council.
Heretofore, the walking delegate
has received q salary fixed by each
individual union, the amount usually
not exceeding the wages paid to Jour-
neymen working at the trade.

WEDNESDAY,, MAY IL, 1920.
GOVERNOR SIGNS TWO BILLS.
County Officials to Keep 'Open Rec.
ords"-As to Insurance.

Columbia, May S. = Companion
acts requiring county officials to keep
open records of all moneys received
by them, and providing penalties for
failure to comply, whether in salary
or fees, which were passed by the
last General Assembly, were signed
to-day by Governor Cooper.
Each county official" reads one
Of the acts, Shall be required to pur-
chase and keep in his office. open to
public inspection during Office hours,
a book in which shall be kept an
itemized account Of all moneys re-
ceived by him, or due to him as sal
airy, fees or costs. or In any other
manner paid to him for his services
by virtue Of his office: Provided,
that nothing herein contained shall
be construed to require any officer
to demand the payment Of his fees
and costs in advance. At the close of
zach fiscal year when so required by
the Senator Of such county, or a ma
jority Of the Representatives of said
county. such county officer shall
transmit an itemized copy Of said &C
count, under oath, to the office Of
County Supervisor, or with the Coun-
ty commissioners in any county
where there Is no Supervisor, and
shall transmit a copy thereof TO the
Senator and each member of the
House OF Representatives from said
county on or before the 10th of Jan
uary, ensuing. The County Supervi-
sor, in addition to other books kept
in his office, shall keep a separate
book, in which he shall enter upon
his books the total amount Of each
account furnished. opposite the name
of the officer furnishing the said ac-
count, and file the account in his
office as other county records are
kept"
The other act provides that any
county officer failing to comply with
the provisions Of the foregoing shall
be deemed guilty Of a misdemeanor,
and, upon conviction, shall be fined
not less than $50 nor more than
$500. or he imprisoned not less than
two nor more than six months in the
county jail, or either or both, in the
discretion Of the trial Judge.
Insuring School Buildings.
Another act signed to-day was that
allowing the insuring Of school build
ings in mutual insurance companies.
This was intended to allow rural mu-
tual fire insurance companies placing
rlSKs on Such classes or property, but
through error in the engrossing de-
partment, where a negative was left
out Of the act, the provisions Of the
law apply only to Incorporated towns
and cities, Numerically opposite to
what was intended.
The act, which Is very short, reads:
THAT the law in reference to the
insurance OF public buildings within
the State shall remain as now pro-
vided by law, except as hereinafter
provided. to-wit: The trustees Of
n school district may insure school
buildings located within i%ncorpo-
rated cities and towns in any mutual
insurance company or association do
ing business under tho laws Of the
State"
The act should have read, "may
insure school buildings not located
in incorporated towns and cities"

can no more escape the %infuencaS ~
the European situation OF to-day
than were were able to escape tRa
war itself. You can not have one
half of the world starving and the
other half eating. w must helm
put Europe on It's feet or we must
participate in Europe's misery. we
find ourselves the only country pos
scssed OF many Of the supplies Which
Europe needs, and which cannotEbe
purchased or given III sufficient
volume on credit. AS q nation we
should at once arrange TO place with
in the reach OF those peoples that
which they need to save them and
start them on their way2to recovery.
The situation has developed SO far
and so seriously that there Is no
possibility Of its being met in any
other way
What since the armisttee7 what
are we Americans thinking about?
There are twenty Belgiums in Eu-
rope nOw-twentyN times as much
territory devastated and twenty
times as many people in restitution
as made the Belgium OF 1915 move
TO pity the human heart OF America.
We are concerning ourselves with
money, with profits, with getting
and getting more OF 1t, with politics.
with the election of a President and
Congress, with party Platforms
while 200,000,00O children, men and
women, starye and may die, while
Whole nations stagger ana fall and
rot.
We have shut our. eyes and
stopped u ears since the armistice.
We refuse to think on these things.
and vaguely galve our consciences
with the notion that somehow there
will be recovery in Europe, that .'the
war Is over" that "all is we'll" be-
cause the guns are hushed; that. If
1t Is not, a miracle will be wrought:
that Il part has been done, that
the agony and the terror are far
away, on some other star; that we
may breathe the air with freedom,
and with no sin upon our souls for
get!
We are passing by on the other
side"
We may not deceive ourselves.
The relationship of the nation to ma
tons Is the relationship of the man
to men. The United States Is as
close to Serbia, to Hungary, to Po-
land, as ever the Levite was to the
traveller who lay bleeding by the
road. NE
In all the length and breadth of
this Republic. and before Its millions
Of men and women, Is not one prob
lem, not one cause, not one duty, so
immediate, so pressing as is-Eu-
rope!
We can not abandon entirely our
usual courses. We must keep our
W country going. But-We can
not save 1t alone. That 1t shall
flourish a healthy spot on a putrid
globe could be none but a fools
dream.
The strongest American, and ofIall
OF them the truest friend Of his
country, Is he who can arouse It's
senses, dulled with selfishness and in
Imagined security, to perceive again
the need of Europe and turm-rAs'
countrymen to saving half of Europe
from a death bed, wen as they we'o'
led in armies to ave half of EUROPE.
