JUDGE DAYTON
Leaves as Monument" Rul-

Philippi, w Va Federal Judge
Dayton, Of the northern district Of
West Virginia, is dead
During his judgeship deceased at
tracted wide attention because Of his
labor injunctions, among the more
prominent being the Hitehman case.
This decision is now being used by
anti-union employers VINO can call on
courts to enforce a contract in which
a worker surrenders his lawful right
to join labor organization as the
price of securing employment.
The Hitchman Coal and Coke Com
pany of this state forced its employees
to sign a contract that they would not
ioin a union while in the employ Of
the company When representatives
of the United Mine Workers discussed
unionism with some of these employees
the unionists were enjoined by Judge
Dayton The circuit court Of appeals
at Richmond reversed this injunction,
but it was upheld by the United
States supreme court by a vote Of
six to three The dissenters We're Ju~
tices Brandeis, Holmes and Clarke.
These justices said:
"If it is coercion to threaten to
strike unless plaintiff (the company
consents 10 closed union shop, it is
coercion also to threaten not to give
one employment unless the applicant
will consent to closed non-union
shop"
The minority held that discussion
Of trade unionism between organized
workers and Hitchman employees die
not constitute a breach Of contract
There would be no breach, it was stat.

from southern states have admonished
the interstate commission that unless
the railroads can be speeded up there
will be a serious Stacking of industry
and thousands Of workers will be in
idleness.
The great automobile industries in
the middle west are heavy sufferers.

a Remedy Suggested
From the welter Of this industrial

Why EDUCATION
in SOUTH LACS

Washington IN the current issue
Of School Life, issued by the United
States bureau Of education. is printed
an analysis Of conditions in the south
that are often ignored BY those who
charge tile south with Tagging in edu-
cation
Serious as it undoubtedly is, the
negro problem til itself does not con
stitute the great disadvantage under
which The south rests as compared
with other sections, it is stated. "The
principal difficulties are.
First the number Of children to
3e educated is relatively far greater
IN the south.
Second property values in the
south are much less per capita than
n amy other part of the United
States.
Third. the population Of the south
fs too sparse for efficient school or
canization
It IS stated that on the average
every square mile Of the area Of the
northern states contains nearly enough
children to give teacher q full quota
Of children, but III the south more
than fou times the area must be
drawn upon to produce the same
number of white pupils and eight
times that area is required to obtain
an equal number Of negro pupils.
1T is apparent what this means in
the organization Of graded schools,
in the efficiency of instruction and
f in economy Of expenditure" says

PINCHED
BY "Can't-Strike" Law They
Favored, Now Wall

Topeka, Kan Employers III this
state are beginning to murmur against
Governor Aliens ''can't-strike" law
The employers are regulated under
the law, but they were willing to ex-
cept this if labor could be handcufed
AS far as labor is concerned the law
is a failure, and the employers see
that if it is to be enforced the state
must inauguate an extensive Jail
building system
John s. Dean, Topeka lawyer and
president of the anti-trade union
Kansas Employers Association, gives
this warning to Governor Allen that
legislation is doomed because it
has failed to control labor; and it
must not be used against The employ
ers:
IF the law may require Gas it does
that a private industry may not cease
production without a permit from the
court of industrial relations, ii viii
follow that the law may forbid the
farmer to reduce his production or to
cease production A little widening Of
the circle and this court will be die
tating to the farmer just how many
acres Of wheat, corn, potatoes, etc, he
shall cultivate and also fix the price
he must accept for the same.
Insofar as the Kansas industrial
court law undertakes to clothe the
state with general regulatory powers
over private industries, and the fber-
ty Of the workers and partisans to
accept OF reject any schedule Of wages
offered, it is unconstitutional, and the
most reactionary legislation Of which
this generation furnishes any exam
pie"

HELPED BY ROYAL FRIENDS
Musicians of Old Days Found Valuable
Patrons Among These in the
High Places.

MANY famous European musicai
genius has been literally supported at
one time or another during his career
by "the great" many musicians DelnS
connected with royal courts espeially
in the DAYS when there were many III
tie princes.
Joseph Haydn for SO years directed
and composed for the private con-
certs of the princes Of Esterhazy, dur
ing which period he created most Oh
his best rhapsodies.
Beethoven had his life made easier
for him by the Archduke Rudolph ana
Princes Lichnowsky and LoDkoWltz.
These three mobiles were his truest
admirers in a day when musicians oc-
cupied subordinate social posieioh'
and were regarded more or less as the
yassals of the family that supported
them.
On one occasion Beethoven was
asked to improvise before an arlsto-
cratic gathering. He began playing
hut the conversation in the salon con-
tinued. III high anger Beethoven
arose, exclaimed forcefully though
rudelr: "To such pigs play no more !
and dashed out of the room.
Mozart, anyone who has read his MS
tory of music will remember, was
kicked downstairs by an upstart serV7
ant of the Archbishop Hieronymus'
who was for many years his patron

THRIFT" THAT DOESN'T PAY
Some Suggestions for the Housekeeper
and for Those who Are
TOO Saving.

There are some thrift suggestions
that do not always pay, remarks
writer in the New York Sun.
Itdoesn't pay, for instance, to wrap
the. ice in your iceboy mp in newspaper
TO save the ice when by SO doing you
will keep the rest of the icehox from
being kept cool. You may save your
ice, but you may lose more Than the
worth of the ice in meat AMI vcgcta-
hles that have been spoiled.
1t doesn't pay to make oak" with
out butter or eggs when you lave 70
throw half of The cake away because
no one will cat it.
It doesn't pay to Go your own hoil"e-
cleaning to save the expense of woin-
in by the Gay when this means that
YOU are not able to have dinner al
home at an expense of rather more
than new material would cost.
Tt doesn't pay to deal with a grocer
who undersellS the other groCefs Ill
lie because he has no delivery service
when you spend an hour in getting
vour sunplics in order to save 10 cents.
There are other ways that you can
make an hours time worth much more
+. than that.
It doesn't pay to set so economical
a table that your children and your
husband will have a craving for candy
and between meals that will cost very
much more than would be needed to
set a really bountiful table.

MOTHER EARTH CHOSE WELL
Old Lady's Decision on Green fer a.
Colorlng Much More a han
Accidental.

Why did Mother Earth choose a
dress in green? The earth was not
always green. Scientists say that
once. ii was as naked as the moon i but.
there came a day when the weather
grew cool enough to demand clothing
and at that time, no doubt, this mater
nal planet began 10 lcok abort to
choose a color scheme for her dress.
Why she chose green is not en- ree=.
ord. but that she chose it with her
whole heart every pleasant. place OF
creation testifies.
Scientists explain that this is merely
a natural phenomenon the color being
chlorophyl pigment, turned green by
action of the sun. But why it,tlid not
turn blue or red or black, no scientist
;,naws. About all they can say IS
that Neither Earth wanted a green
dress, and.s got it.
Green is a Eestful color. Oculists
say that of all colors. green. is the.
most friendly TO the optic nerve In
lands where eternal snGTs or eternal
white sands flash up their g!aF.ng re-
necticns, men have to shade their eyes
or 70 blind. But green never bothers
the eye. One can stare forest In the
face all day with impunity. Natures
green's never got on Your nerves, ana
they never ruarraied with any Other
of natures culOrs and tints.
The professional mixer of paints
knows ,ha; fierce color discord can
easily be- created by misplacEg OF
green. but nature never misplaces It.
Even blue stands without tying, cheeE
by cheek with natures greens. Lark
spurs and lobclias 60 quietly arm IN
arm with their respective foliage.
rose of any tint or color is best SET
off by a green rose leaf. Every sii:'hs
or fall color, pale crforid, will shade
pleasantly into green on the very same
leaf
Imagine the grass Of the helh ana
