clare unanimously that they cannot

Anti-Soviet Precautions.

At a meeting held in New York last
night Of the county committee of the
American Legion resolution was
adopted pledging each post of that
body to hold itself in readiness for
service in the event that the radical
socialists, bolshevists, communists and
others who are forming soviets Sc
cretly in this country make an open
break of revolutionary character in
this country on the LIST of May. The
mover of the resolution declared that
there are no less than si1ty-four such
soviets in operation in Manhattan.
IT may be that owing to precautions
and to the publicity that has been
given to the alleged plan to start =
wholesale agitation next Saturday there
will be no outbreak. But there is evi-
dence that May l has been named as
the time for demonstration on Il
large scale of communist activity. 1t
may take the form Of strikes in in
dustries that have been "bored from
within" by the radicals, or it may take
a direct criminal form with bombs and
perhaps other efforts at terrorizing. It
must be assumed that the government
is on guard against all possibilities.
The attitude of the American LIE
gion in this matter is sound and patri
otic While at the New York meeting
there was some dissent to the propo
sition on the score that it might put
the members of the legion in the po-
sition Of strikebreakers, there was
practically no difference of sentiment
respecting the need of solidarity for
the maintenance of law and order and
in defense of the government. The
American Legion is, in effect, great
militia force. not definitely recognized
az such. but in spirit enlisted against
disorder and sedition.

The Outrageous Sugar Situation.

The prayer Of the people is that
through some congressional activity,
possibly the inquiry now in progress
in the House, sufficient supply Of
sugar at reasonable rates may be as
sured them. At present there is a
doleful prospect. Sugar is coming into
the United States in increasing guam
titles. The imports are heavier than
they have been for some time, and
yet the price is rising steadily. No
adequate explanation of this phenome-
non has been forthcoming. The PEG
pie are confused. They do not under
stand why sugar should be so high
and in spots SO scarce.
Apparently the only way out of this
is for the United States to fix the
price and regulate the distribution
IL this can be done under existing
J law, it should be done at once. If il
| cannot be done under present law, new
law should be had. An acute emer.
gency exists. Sugar at 30 cents d
pound. which is now predicted, il an

United States. There is no justifea'
ton whatever for such an appalling
price. Those who are charging it are
undoubtedly making at some stage in
the transaction enormous profits.

A Dastardly Crime.

Yesterdays bank robbery and muir
der at Sandy Spring may have been
the work Of professionals, but it bore
the marks of beginners in the crimi-
nal game. 1t was effectively done. but
in the circumstances success was hard
" to be doubted. The point wherein
the crime differed from the usual hold
up by men who have had experience
in this line lay in the immediate use
Of weapon and the needless taking
of life. The robbers entered the bank
with n yell. which was in itself un-
necessary and dangerous, for the noise
might have aroused the quiet town,
apart from the shot, which was evi-
denee of nervousness unusual in the
case of skilled crime of this character.
Possibly this gang was of recent
formation. Where it was recruited re
mains, of course, mystery. In these
days of motor cars it is impossible
to identify the origin of criminal
plot, SO speedily can the participants
move about The men in this case had
evidently spotted" the bank. They
sent a scout ahead to survey the scene
and note the situation, following in a
few minutes. In consequence Of their
forethought to entrap the occupants
of the building in the vault they got
away with fully half an hours lead,
which took them many miles from the
scene before the alarm was given. That
move of locking the survivors in the
strong room was the single token Of
experiences in the whole ease.
The large cities contain numerous
men who are ready for desperate en-
terprises Of this kind, young men who
have gone down in the moral scale,
who have fallen into evil associations,
and are willing to adventure in crime,
for the sake both Of possible loot
and Of the excit ement of the thing.
There may have been in this case q
single experienced man at the head
Of the gang, who had assembled a
group Of reckless youths-all Of the
men were young-to rob this particu-
lar bank.
Police work in such case is diff :
cult. The men got Sd good start that
pursuit was rendered difficult. The
rain had kept the roads comparatively
free of traffic. There was small chance
Of observation along the route. Identi-
fieation of the car is next to impossible.
License tags are easily changed, and
with 4 big city within short run COM
plete obscurity is possible within a
couple of hours. 1t will be remark
able piece of work, indeed, If these
villains, who took life 50 lightly and
brutally, are caught. But the hope is
that by some fortunate chance they
may be traced, perhaps through the
securities they stole, and given the
punishment they have earned.

Wise Labor Action.

The most assuring thing OF the hour
is the action of tho officials of the
Rrotherhoo Of Railroad Trainmen in
the New York and New jersey districts
canceling the charters of nine locals
of that order implicated in the wild

rank and file of these locals are not
blacklisted by this action, but are eligi.

object was to get rid of the leader.
ship which had inspired and directed
the strikes-an excellent object
worthy of, and likely to achieve. sue
cess.
These wildcat strikes, as, all are
aware. were in violation of an agree
ment. The men who went out broke
their words. Local leaders persuaded
them to the deed. In doing that. of
course, they inflicted a deeper injury
on labor and unionism than on the
public, grievously as the public was
injured.
As these brotherhood officials recog-
nized, labor must keep its agreements.
Employees, in that particular, are un-
der the same obligations as employers.
Whenever employers violate their
agreements and employees strike to en-
force the agreements, public SYM
patty goes out to the strikers. And
without public sympathy no strike
ever did, or ever will, or ever should,
win.
There is no controlling prejudice in
/. this country against the principle of
labor unionism, or collective bargain
ing. BY uniOnism and collective bar
gaining labor has accomplished good
deal for itself; and there is national
pride in the fact that American labor
enjoys worldwide reputation for its
high wages and comfortable standards
of living.
But as the real friends of labor,
both in and out Of its ranks. plainly
see, the word Of labor when given must
be scrupulously kept. Otherwise, in

most of all to wage-earners, results.

SHOOTING STARS.

The Overall Parade.
Had an overall parade at Pohick on

We bought the garments readymade-
some Of us bought on "tick.'
Joe Struthers gave US credit at the
store he's KEEP SO long.
He says that overalls has never yet
got folks in wrong.
There wasn't any big brass band lead
in down the pike.
There wasn't any speeches calm on
the boys to strike.
That overall parade it started at the
break o day,
And it wasn't wholly finished till the
moon came ON display.
The marchin' wasn't anything remark
able for style.
Some of US walked a hundred yards
and others went a mile.
We carried implements Of toll for
agricultural use;
The slogan We agreed upon was "Hus
tie and produce"
There wasn't any grand pretense Of
picturesque effect;
The marchers simply went to work an
took route direct.
OF all the overall parades gathering
so thick,
We think we had about the best at
Pohick on the Crick.
