Unions Abide Judge
Landis's Decision

Directly applicable to the Chicago
district but materially important gen
orally was the decision of Judge
Lands as arbiter of the building
trades disputes. After several months
of careful study the iurist decreed that
the wages of the men in the trades
concerned should be reduced by from
10 to SO per cent and promulgated
new rules and working conditions that
1t is believed will speedily restore the
building industry of Chicago to a
sound condition. The new rules free
the Chicago district from the domino
ton of the contractors association, la
Dor unions, material mems cliques, or
from combinations entered into by all
three of them. The home builder can
now put up any kind of house he
likes, with any kind Of material, with
out fear of interference from business
agents. Employers can now employ
and discharge men according to their
efficiency or inefficiency, and not be-
cause some business agent gives the
word Material men are free to COM
pete openly against each other
The union workers naturally were
greatly dissatisfied with the lower
wages granted them, but since the
unions selected Judge Lands for the
job, they will abide by his decision.
One builder said the men actually will
make more than before since the new
agreements eliminate jurisdictional
strikes and they will have steady work.
More important in the long run is the
fact that Judge Lands has freed the
union workers from the imminent
danger of the open shop. The carpen-
ters, plasterers and sheet metal
workers declined to enter the arbitra-
ton and some other crafts were eX-
cluded because they refused what the
judge considered suitable agreements.
1t is predicted those crafts will have
to contend with the open Stop before
very long

BALKED AT WORD COMMON
Dignity to Have Nothing But
the Very Latest.

Bishop Homer Stunts said at a din
ner in Omaha:
"If we were all as ambitious to
progress officially as our war profiteers
ase to progress socially, it would be
a very good thing.
"a war profiteer decided recently
to drop the Baptist faith and turn
Episcopalian, as all the bang-up people
in town went to the Episcopalian
church.
$50 he visited the bookstore and
asked for the hyuinals, Bibles and so
forth that he would need in his new
way to worship.
HE seemed well enough pleased
with the volumes that the salesman
laid before him till he came to the
Book of Common Prayer. Over this
he frowned and shook his head.
"This'll hardly do he said, and he
tapped the title with his forefinger.
Let's have something little more
select. boz"

Milk Dealer Suffered
Severe Cut

Larlbertville- E. F. Haines, proprie-
tor of the milk station on Coryell
St. below the Strand, suffered Sc
we're cut Wednesday when a bottle
was broken by the pressure of steam
from the washing machine where he
was cleaning the bottle. The force of
the steam drove a fragment of the
bottle into his wrist, severing the
arteries and gashing the bone of his
forearm. DR.. Salmon attended the in
jury, and said that in ten minutes the
flow of blood would have caused death
Mr.. Haines only recently came to
Lambertville from Quakertown, Pa.
He bought the milk station formerly
owned by Eastburn, and last by D..
Price.

Lambertville Water
Proven O. K.

The taste of the water supplied by
the Lambertville Water Works has
caused the belief that some sort of
impurity had crept into the supply
But a recent investigation conducted
by the State Board of Health has
proven that the water is perfectly
pure. The cause of the taste was a
vegetable growth in the bottom Of
the reservoir. And altho distasteful
it is not impure. However, the reser-
voir has been drained and cleaned
Also the fire mains have been flushed
out. The taste will soon disappear
and no further annoyance win be ex-
perienced.

ANOTHER
LEAGUE DISPUTE

The assembly of the League of Ma
in Geneva, has been put up against
difficult proposition by the delegates
from Bolivia. They demanded that the
old dispute over the provinces of
Tacna and africa, now under Chilean
administration, be placed on the
agenda of the assembly, and that the
treaty of 1904 between Bolivia and
Chile be taken under consideration for
possible revision. The Chilean dele
CATION, led by Augustin Edwards,
argued passionately against the pro-
posal, urging that the league is not
competent to revise treaties unless
they are "inapplicable."
Obviously the Monroe Doctrine Is
involved in the dispute. Carlos Ara
mayo, head of the Bolivian delega-
ton, stated that Bolivia on several
occasions had requested the United
States to examine the Bolivian Chilean
treaty, but the Washington govern
ment had steadfastly refused. F"The
South American states do not consider
themselves bound by the Monroe Doc
trine" he added. There are a number
of prominent Americans in Geneva
watching the proceedings, and they
are urging President Harding's adj
ministration to make known its view
as to the competence of the league
to intrude in Central and South
American problems in direct defiance
Of the Monroe Doctrine, pointing out
that the European states would be en-
abled to capitalize the petty differ
ences between the Latin-American re-
publics by posing as disinterested
benefactors, through which the allies
would gain concessions.
The league assembly was loath to
make any decision in the matter, and
at the suggestion of Van Karnebeek
of Holland, who had been elected
president, the discussion went over to
a later date.
a Hialmar Branting of Sweden in
Thursdays session charged that the
league had been extravagant and had
Disseminated against nations that re-
manned neutral in the war. He es-
pecially criticized the action of the
league council in giving the Aland
islands to Finland Lord Robert
Cecil, representative of South Africa,
defended the league against these
accusations, and then went on to
severely criticize the purely mega
tive" position of the United States
which he said was responsible for the
delay In the application of mandates.
The American government recently
sent notes to the allies reiterating its
claim to equality with them in the dis
position of the former possessions of
Germany and her allies in the war.
Among the first things the assembly
did was to reject the amendment to
the covenant proposed by Argentina,
that all sovereign states should be
members of the league unless Solun-
tarily abstaining from membership.
In Buenos Aires 1t was believed the
temporary withdrawal of Argentina
from the league would now be abso-
Lutte and permanent and that certain
other Latin-American republics might
also withdraw.

Turks Suffer
Heavy Loss

The Greek and Turkish Nationalist
armies were locked in bloody battle
on the route to Angora, and the Greeks
are reported to have the best of the
fighting, although their losses are
heavy. The Turks lost some 1900
men and are falling back steadily.
Equally fierce but with fewer
fatalities is the fighting between the
Spanish forces and the Morocco tribes
men. The Spaniards are using bomb
ing airplanes against the Moors who
occupy almost inaccessible strong
holds in the mountains. The tribes
men besieging Melilla also are kept
busy lodging air bombs. However
the Spanish supplies are running short
and the offensive may be abandoned

continued the controversy, acceptance
of the British dominion offer being
