BOUNDARY FIGHT NEAR END

Duluth, MIMI, Oct. 1.-THE boun-
dairy controversy between Minnesota
n Wisconsin, which has been in the
courts for several years, has entered
into one Of its final phases with the
acceptance by both states Of a COM
mission to survey. the boundary line
through lower st. Louis bay involved
in the original suit pending in the su-
preme court.
Counsel for Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin asked the United States supreme
court to name William B. Patton, Du-
luth engineer, John. G.. D. Mack of
Madison, Wis, and Samuel S. Gannett
OF Washington, D. c.. as a commission,
which will act as a board, of arbitra-
ton and will make a survey Of the ex-
act boundary in accordance with the
recent decision of the court.
The naming of the commission
awakens a new interest in the dispute
which has been in the courts for a
number of years, both the Minnesota
and Wisconsin legislatures having
failed to decide upon a boundary line.

Francis II. Sisson, New York
Banker, Says Organized Labor
Has Awakened to Danger.

NEW YORK. April 22.-The --latest
series of strikes"-amounting to an
epidemic'-has done infinitely more
than profiteering to raise commodity
prices and the cost Of living. Francis
n. Sisson. New York banker, de-
clared in an address at the annual
banquet of the National Wholesale
Mems Furnishings Association here
last night.
The railroad strike has cost the
roads 100000 a day and occasioned
great damage to the general financial
and industrial situation. Mr.. Sisson
asserted. adding that an Incomplete
list OF direct losses from strikes in
1919 placed the cost to labor alone at
nearly $725.O0O.0OO and to industry
moro than $1,25O,0OO,OOO
On the sinister aspect" of Russian
communists influence in the strike.
suggested by Attorney General
Palmer. Mr.. Sisson said: "Organized
labor partly has awakened to the fact
that in this attack on law and order
1t stands shoulder to shoulder with
capital and business in the first line
trenches, and that 1t is engaged In a
struggle for Its very existence"
