tablishments that are definitely anti
union. Obviously, shop of this kind
is not an open shop but closed
shop, closed against members Of la
Dor unions.
1--WE feel impelled to call public at
tention to the fact that a very wide
spread impression exists that the pres
ent open shop campaign is inspired
in many quarters by this antagonism
to union labor. Many disinterested
persons are convinced that an attempt
is being made to destroy the organized
labor movement. Any such attempt
must be viewed with apprehension by
fair minded people.
when, for example, an applicant
for work is compelled to sign a con-
tract pledging himself against affilia-
tiOn with union, or when a union
man is refused employment or dis
charged, merely on the ground of un-
ion membership, the employer is using
coercive methods and is violating the
fundamental principle of an open shop.
Such action is unfair to economic-free-
dom and to the interest of society as
is corresponding coercion exercised by
labor bodies in behalf of the closed
shop.
1T seems incumbent upon Christian
employers to scrutinize carefully any
movement, however plausible, which
is likely to result in denying to the
workers such affiliation as will in
their judgement best safeguard their
interests and promote their welfare
and to prevent disastrous indus
trial conflicts at a time when the
country needs good will and co-opera.

OKLAHOMA FARMERS SELL
COTTON FOR LESS

Oklahoma Farmers were receiving
4 cents per pound less for their cotton
the first of this month than the av-
erage price paid throughout the Unit
ed States, according to figures of the
federal bureau Of crop estimates.
The average for the entire country
on that date was II cents per pound
while Oklahoma farmers received but
1O.5 cents average.
Surrounding states were receiving
more than Oklahoma. The Arkansas
average was 1873 cents; Tennessee,
13 cents, and Texas, 1872 cents Okla
homa's production was estimated at
100000 bales.
"The above figures indicates that
the selling end of the Oklahoma cot

Building, Oklahoma City.

ARE NOW
A THING OF THE PAST

There are no more "maniacs" in ILL
nois while the violent insane wards of
the state have almost disappeared, ac-
cording to A. L. Bowen, state superin-
tendent Of charities, He announces
that in one state hospital of $500
patients, the maniac class has been
reduced from 500 to one and that
even that one is no maniac.
Where are the maniacs ?" queired
Mr. Bowen, "That is the question ask
ed today in every state hospital for
nervous and mental disease in ILL
nois. Among the twenty thousand pa
tients in the states ten institutions,
the old type known as the maniac is
seldom found today

disturbed and agitated. Some do I'M
pulsive things that have serious con-
sequences. They require special atten-
tion and care, but this care is that
of trained nurse or attendant and not
the repression and restraint of cells,
straps, strong suits and leather COL
lars.
mot many Years ago it was very
different. Our state hospitals were
full of maniacs-men and women look
cd upon as dangerous. They were
locked in screen rooms and padded
cells to prevent them from injuring
themselves and others. Many of them
wore no clothes and slept upon the
floors,
"These were the patients who gave
to all the mentally sick the dreaded
name of maniac. Every patient was
regarded as dangerous and violent.
Hundreds of visitors came to see this
class and it alone
To-day in one hospital of $4,000 we
have just one who may be feared,
where not long ago there were five
hundred Of that type. can 60 over
this institution in my minds eye and
pick out scores of men and women
who for years lived in the most ab-
ject state of restraint. We had nearly
700 screen rooms here ten years ago
in which patients were securely locked

Woe TO the leader who Turns his back
On dagger thus, OF towards blow.
Where more than one from the snarling pack
Are only waiting to lay him low;
Lincoln. Washington and T. r.
These are few who have crossed the span
To know the pain and the hidden scar
Built up by the envy Of their clan
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1920-07-25

And woe to the leader who makes slip.
Who falters once on the hard. rough track;
The pack is upon him. thigh and hip.
With each one leading the raw attack;
Worse than wolves on the fores, run
They tear his name and his fame apart
Forgetting the greater good he's done
They are only content when they break his heart
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1920-07-25

It's easy to run with the winning pack
Nor hear the call as mate goes down,
To seek your goal on the open track
And hold success as the only crown;
But where is the wine in the victor cup
When he rushes by in the time Of need?
When some one falls that you might lift up,
Are you wolf---or higher breed?
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1920-07-25

But the human pack---when II hits the uail---
Is supposed to be Of higher breed;
If one should break---or if one should fall
A hand should go to his urgent need
And yet often amid the raw
And driving battle for wealth OF fame.
The law Of the wild is the only law
AS one goes down IN the bitter game.
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1920-07-25

When wolf goes down IN the hunting pack
here's snarl and yelp for the final note.
Where even the leading wolves turn back
AS red fangs lunge for his mangled throat;
The stiffness rings with last lone cry
AS the pack swings by where the sod is red:
It's the law Of the wild that the weak must die
Where the strong survive for the fight ahead
Richmond times-dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1914-current, 1920-07-25

When the wolf pack runs-:-as wolf packs do
Shoulder TO shoudct---or flank to flank
They hold the course till the chase is through
With due respect to the leaders rank;
With due respect 10 the leaders call.
Shoulder to shoulder or mate to mate.
But if one should falter---or one should fall
The law Of the forest seals his fate.

SUCCESS
HINGES ON LATHAM
Penn Students Doubt That His
Ankle Will Be in Shape
Saturday

The chances of the Oxford Cam
bridge relay. team to win the two mile
championship on Saturday afternoon
hinges on the ability Of latham to
round to form. At least, that is the
opinion Of Penn students after week
of viewing the visiting English team in
their daily workouts on Franklin Field.
latham injured his ankle aboard ship
on the way across the pond and was
unable until last Thursday afternoon to
do any running. Yesterday afternoon
he ran slow half mile and walked
about the same distance. To the many
students who have been closely follow
ing the workouts of the Englishman, the
injured ankle is in such shape that he
will be unable to give his best on Sstur-
day afternoon. 1t was noticed yestcr-
day that he limped perceptibly as he
rounded the track, favoring, the injured
ankle to marked degree. IL he tF
forced to do this on Saturday. Penn
students are of the opinion that he
will be many seconds slower than he
should be IL the British team is to make
any kind Of showing.
There is possibility that Montague,
the three mile champion. may run in
Tathams place, but this is denied by
the Englishmcn, who are confident that
latham will round to form in time for
the race. Montague on Saturday after.
noon run fast two miles, covering the
second one in five minutes, and while
he has never run the half mile in a
meet there Is strong possibility that
necessity will force his being used. .
With latham In form there are many
students who are skpptical pbout the
