Labor Capital Umpires

Rasi NJ Manly former member of the labor board,
proposes in detail system of industrial umpreS for me-
dating labor troubles and oreStang strike deadocks
The Industrial umprcs idea in various forms has atey
been subject of much discussion among eauefS vi pol
capital and the public. -
Our present absence of any organized medium for equ-
taby adjusting aborcapita disputes frequently brings the
country TO the verge of industrial catastrophe The coal
strike was n fresh illustration.
All human controversies except those between labor
and capital have courts TO which they can be taken LOT
settlement These courts far from perfect but ds-
putants turn to them without question: recoerzng ihe
superiority of the court system the old method oil gh
ing it out with the fists.
But when labor and capital disagree there is no court
no adjustment board umpire system to which they can
appeal with assurance of getting square deal
Three years ago President Wilson unsuccessfuly urged
extension of the Adamson bill to make strikes or ockous
unlawful before the completion of public investigation
Charles f. Hughes has championed similar proposal
for an institution to protect the public against the indus
trial paralysis that accompanies strikes in basic industries
Opposition TO both plans fared up like gasoline Tame
II revealed labor opposed to any system OF compulsory
arbitration.
Manys plan recommends that arbitration be voluntary
not compulsory but that the organization OF industrial
umpircs should have to bring public sentiment 10

board would be set up to arbitate the dispute only
upon written agreement Of all parties concerned that It's
decision would be binding.
The changes involved in the industrial umpres idea
too farreaching to permit snap judgment.
Unuuestionaby the industrial world is cropping for n
more satisfactory way of settling its disputes Justly and
without needless delay and paralysis of production The
proposed industrial umpreS may not be the sign
board pointing the right road but it worthy close
and careful scrutiny

LOCAL NEGRO DEMANDS
ExTRAD|TION PAPERS
CHARGED WITH THEFT OF
CLOTHES, REFUSES TO ACCOM-
PANY OFFICER TO COLUMBIA.

Charged with the theft of suit of
clothes from John Pitts, colored, John
Acrie, also colored, was arrested by
the police in Decatur, Alabama Mon
day upon information furnished by
Chief of Police Bailey Peyton, of this
place
Officer Hight was sent by Chief of
Police Peyton to Decatur Monday
to bring Acrie back to Columbia, but
when the officer arrived there, the ne
gro admitted his guilt, and sent the
clothes back to Columbia by him, but
refused to accompany the officer with
out extradition papers. Application
for these papers will be made at once
to the governor of Alabama, and it is
expected that within few days Acrie
will have quarters at Hotel de Houser.
This is one of the quickest pieces of
work ever accomplished by the loca!
police force. Twenty minutes after
the information that the clothes had
been stolen was in the hands of the
police, Acrie was lodged in a Jail
cell at Decatur. Chief Peyton know
ing the Negroes destination telephoned
full description of the man wanted
here and as he aligted from the train

GOOD YIELD CHERRIES;
PRICES TO Be HIGH
MESSRS. 9AINEY G. SON pREpAR-
ING TO BEGIN HARVEST IN
ABOUT TWO WEEKS.

From present prospects the cherry
crop is going to be good one and a
most protitabla one this year. The
only serious difficulty is in getting the
cherries to market, due to the scarcity
of labor. The trees generally are well
filed and the price is going to be
high, SKY high" in fact.
Horace Rainey and sons are the
largest cherry growers in this section.
They have a good many acres of old
trees and in addition they will this
year harvest the first crop from thir.
ty acre orchard This Is probably the
largest orchard in the county and in a
few years should yield enormously.
The crop will be coming on the mar
ket in about ten days or two weeks
and the price will be $6 crate. Messrs.
Rainey & Sons are preparing to sup
ply big southern demand for their
products.
