CHRISTIAN SCIENCE TALK
GIVEN BY CHURCH LEADER
William w. Porter Says Man Must
Reflect Inexhaustible Resources
of Divine Mind.

Thought rightly related to the
divine mind of God, who is the source
OF all intelligence, reveals the God

mans true. selfhood is understood
human beings will be in ignorance
u their natural rights and privileges
ana Will continue to suffer as a re-
declared William W. Porter of New
york: a member Of the board Of lee
tureship Of the First Church Of Christ,
scientist, of Boston, Mass, in the
third OF a series of lectures on Chris
tan Science at the First Church of
Christ OF the District last night.
christian Science demonstrates the
fact" he said. that because man is
Gods image and likeness man must
rehect the inexhaustible resources of
the divine mind"
Christian Science never fails, the
speaker said. because no true science
ever fails. He illustrated this state
ment with the science Of numbers.
and said If they are not understood
or one fails to properly apply them.
this does not mean that the science of
mathematics has failed. The same is
true Of Christian Science, he con-
tinued. for there may be failure to
out problems under consideration,
but Christian Science never fails"
Mr.. Porter declared systems of re-
ligion and medicine have finally dis
appeared because they were found
ed either upon the personal reputa-
tfon or the personal sense of their
originators, or upon the unworthy
belief that evil is a reality with
power exceeding that of good or
God. Christian Science declares that
God is the only Creator: that real
creation must reflect the character
of the divine mind. and that true
creation consists, therefore. of spirit
ual or true ideas. Evil is not a
spiritual or true idea-consequently,
is not a creation of Cod"
The speaker lauded Mary Baker

Col. Thompson, Of Navy League,

mitted to Visit Shi ps.

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Secre-
tary Of the Navy DENLY has with
drawn the order of Secretary Daniels
forbidding representatives of the Navy
league from entering naval stations
or ships. The league has no govern
mental connections. In 1917 it's pres
ident, Colonel Thompson, charged the
navy department with being suscepti-
BILE to labor influences" in connec-
ton with an explosion at the Mare
Island navy yard. Secretary Daniels
demanded a retraction of this insult.
When this request was not compiled
with the secretary placed strict ban
on the leagues activities, as far as
navy property was concerned. Wo-
men who were knitting articles for
sailors under its auspices were COM
PEELED to distribute their. gifts through
other agencies.

CITY BUILDING
Commissioners, Contractors,
Labor Men, Have Warm Ses-
sion Over Wage Cut.

The city made case against the
Builders Exchange and the firm of
Mcleod e. Smith at the meeting held
in the council chamber Wednesday
morning. It was shown that an agree
ment was made among the members
to cut wages 20 per cent. They are all
standing together, giving labor an ad-
mirable lesson in solidarity.
Commissioner Phillips landed sew
eral hard ones on the Builders Ex-
change. The council wanted to know
why work on the construction of the
water and light: building is being de-
layed.> Mr.. Mcleod of the firm Of Nc
Leod &, Smith said he was willing to
pay the union scale, but it was evil
dent that if he did so he would lose
out with other members Of the ex-
change.
Walker lamar, president. and F. w.
Armstrong, secretary of the Builders
Exchange, were present. The former
declared Mcleod & Smith were free to
pay any scale they wanted, and Com
missioner Phillip; retorted, Eyes, and
if they pay the union scale way will
be found to deny them material and
hinder shipments in such way as to
embarrass them"
The daily papers covered the meet
ing fairly so there is no need of re-
peating the. stony in these columns,
save to say that John E. Jensen. presi-
dent of the Federated Trades assem-
bly,, read from the Bulletin of the
Builders Exchange an extract which
showed that all the members were
engaged in a conspiracy to reduce
wages without giving the workers
anything to say about it.
After the meeting several friendly
contractors conversed with union men
and it was said that many Ct the con-
tractors were not a bit satisfied with
the way things were going in the
building industry. Some are withdraw
ing from the exchange and others are
threatening to withdraw. One con-
tractor said that the exchange had
passed out of their hands and it was
now controlled by material men and
other non-employers of building
tradesmen.
F. w. Armstrong is reported to have
said that few outside workmen had
been secured to act as strikebreak-
ers. They are scattered about the
city, according to Mr.. Armstrong.
Thursday morning a we'll known
contractor was seen to Lead six IN en-,
all carrying bricklayers' or plaster
ers' bags, to the offices Of the Build
ers' Exchange. Rumor has it that
these men will work as strikebreakers.
AS we goto press Mcleod Smith
and the city commissioners are meet
ing in conference. It is probable that
an understanding of some sort will be
reached so that work on the water
and light building may be promptly
resumed.

LABOR OPPOSES
STATE CONTROL
Organized Labor Takes Strong
Stand Against Passage Of
Street Railway Bill.

BY unanimous vote the delegates
to the Federated Trades assembly, at
the regular meeting held at Owls hall
last Friday evening. protested to the
legislature against the passage of the
street railway bill by which it is pro-
posed to take the. control of trac-
it-in the state railroad and warehouse
commission. e.,
The assembly voted to appoint a
committee to stir up public sentiment
in Duluth against the passage of the
bill. If necessary big delegation will
be sent to St. Paul to attend the
public hearings on the measure. The
delegates declared their belief in the
principle of home rule, against grant
ing perpetual franchise to the street
railway company and against giving
the rate-making power to the state.
It was pointed out that the fare
could never be less than five cents if
the bill became law and the company
would not be required to pay it's Share
for the pavement of streets upon
which it operated. President Jensen
appointed w. E. McEwen, Henry L.

Francis J. Clarke, general organ
izer for the Boot and Shoe Workers
union, was a guest of the assembly
and delivered a powerful address on
the union stamp anw union label.
''This," said Mr.. Clarke, lis the most
opportune time to create a demand for
union made goods. The union label
is a guarantee Of the union shop. It
eliminates strikes and; ,lockouts and
signifies the recognition of democracy
in industry
Mr.. Clarke stated that there were
many honest EN- loyers who declared
that no reduction in wages was JUS

ANTI-UNI0N|STS

Use Same Whine Today That
Parry, Van Ceave and Post
Resorted to 20 Years Ago.

CHICAGO, MAR. 17.-Anti-union en-
ployers in this city are so lacking in
originality that they are using the 20
year-old whines Of Parry, Post and
Van Cleave to create public opinion
in favor of indiYfdual bargaining.
These employers want ito protect the
employer and employee in the right of
freedom of contract, to prevent any
interference with persons seeking to
work and earn living, and to protect
the public right in the free and unin-
terrupted use Of the streets and trans
portation of persons and goods"
Weeping for the, rights of workers
and the public is doubly amusing when
the exploitation of the workers and the
public by these, employers is recalled.

LABOR ENCYCLOPEDIA
COMPILED BY 4. F. OF |

There were number of routine
matters disposed of in rapid order
by the Federated Trades assem- bly,
last Friday evening.
A communication was received

movement. which was now ready for
distribution at a cost Of IS per copy.
The assembly voted to purchase one
vOlume.<
The New York State Federation of
Labor sent in several communications
bearing on the Irish Republic, which
were received and filed.
Congressman Oscar J. Larson SUBJ
mitted a communication in reply to
a request from the assembly in which
he stated that he has always been in
favor of free speech, free press and
free assemblage, and would give
thoughtful consideration to the mat
ter of voting to repeal the espionage
act. Similar letters were received
from President Harding's secretary
and Senator knute Nelson.
A letter of thanks was received
from Leonidas Merritt for the en-
dorsement. he received from labor in
his candidacy for city commissioner.
Senator Emil. Nelson submitted a
letter written to him by Mrs. F. A.
Kingsley of Minneapolis having ref
erence to a statement said to. have
been made by Jas. A. Starkweather,
assistant superintendent Of schools in
this city, in which it was alleged that
Mr.. Starkweather reflected on the
children of the workers at commit
tee hearing on the educational bill in
st. Paul. The assembly asked for
further particulars.
S. c. Linnell, F. c. Fitch and c. At

SCHEME
IS'.1uRNED DOWN
Trades Assembly Will Not Have
Anything to do With Gambling
Scheme TO Raise Money.

Organized labor will have nothing
to do with any gambling scheme to
raise money. A stranger named Gal
lagher. walked into the meeting of
the Federated Trades assembly last
Friday evening and asked the privi-
lese to address the meeting: No one
knew what he had up his sleeve, but
as union workers believe in free
speech he was told to go to it:
Gallagher mounted the platform
and dug down into his pocket, ex-
tracing little punch card and exhib-
tied it to the meeting. Il hold here" he
began, "a little device that will make
you some easy money and it will make
it quickly. This is a small punch
board with numbers in each hole.
with every board is given four
prizes. One prize goes to the man who
sells the chances. The other prizes are
given to the winners. Each board will
bring in ST Of which you get IS. We
sold 5000 boards in Newark. I should
think we could sell 1000 boards here
during a campaign. That will make
you $1,000"
II move that the matter be laid
over till the next meeting" said a
delegate. Gallagher arose and ex-
planned that he was not resident of
the city and he wanted an answer now
so that he could make his plans ac-
cordingly.
II did not want to hurt your feel
ings," said the delegate. 1--WE are not
running a gambling house and we are
tn 11 hot will Ho~
rass our officials. then move that
we turn the proposition down."
There were dozen seconds and
when President Jensen put the motion
the AYE" vote was loud and unani-
nous. The assembly voted the gam
bling proposition down with a bang.

BILL TO OUTLAW
SPIES ON LABOR
California Legislators Would Ex-
tend Sabotage Law to Reach
EN- |oyers and Spies.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, March H.
Assemblynan Hurley wants the prin-
ciples underlying anti-sabotage legis-
lation to apply to business men who
employ labor spies, and to the spies
themselves.
The law maker says employers
should be penalized who employ pro-
vocateurs. as they are known in con-
tinental Europe.
1T is these said Assemblyman
Hurley, who are responsible for sab
otage and destruction Of property dur
ing strikes.
THE spy is always the most radi
CT. member in the labor ranks. He
first ingratiates himself with his fell
low workers, joins the union and then
begins to agitate, his agitation mostly
taking the form of violence.
HE becomes the hired thug of the
employer, who wishes to get some
thing on his other workers, and once
in a while. as is only natural, the spy
finds some worker either too weak to
resist his suggestions. or is himself Of
a radical temperament, that makes
him a convert to the methods favored
by the spy.
Some of the most heinous things
that have occurred in connection with
the fight of organized labor for better
conditions have been pulled by these
spies. 1t is they, usually, who first
suggest dynamiting. and generally the
ones who carry out their own plots
for the wrecking Of property. But it
is the union worker who gets the
blame, and public opinion is thus
adroitly turned against the labor
movement"
The assemblyman cited many spe-
cific cases which have occurred within
recent years in various parts of the
country that were the direct result of
the labor spy system. The spy preach
es and practices violence, but sees to
it that the blame is placed where it
will do the labor movement the most
harm, he said.
