ARE YOU GUILTY.

A farmer carrying an express
package from a big mal-order house
was accostcd by local dealer.
"Why didn't you buy that bill of
goods from me? / could have saved
You the express, and besides YOU
would have been patronizing home
store, which helps to pay the taxes
and builds up this locality.
The farmer looked at the mer-
chant moment and then said:
"Why don't you patronize your
home paper and advertise? l read it
and didn't know that you had the
stuff l have here"
The moral here is plain enough
The merchant who advertises in the
nome paper not only makes money
for himself, but keeps money at home
TO develop the town in which he lives.

Thorough reorganization Of the ad-
ministrative machinery in the Panama
Canal Zone, with radical changes in
existing policies affecting employment
Of labor. physical operation Of the
canal and railroad, pay of employees iand
mended in the preliminary report sub
mitted to Secretary Weeks by the
commission which recently investigat-
ed conditions in the Canal ssone at
his request. o..
The commission estimates that ar
annual saving of s5,O00,000 would result
from adoption Of it's suggestions.
Chief among the recommendations is
that the governor of the Canal Zone be
directed mot to make agreements q
understandings with the canal employees
Or any class thereof, for any period OF
time, but that the wages be periodiGans y, ny
adjusted in accordance with the law
which bases the canal wages on the pa!
of similar employees in the government,
service in the United States, and that
the governor shall mot deal with labor
organizations as organizations. but shall
deal with committees Of employees.
Favors "Open shop
at is further recommended. tne
report says. that the open shop prin-
ciple be actually put into effect on
the isthmus and that in all depart
mentS substantial proportion OF
non union men be employed"
In another section the document as
serts that the "open-shop" policy 'ir
theory is followed on the canal, but
in some depa -tments it is only the
ory and the employees are completely
unionized."
1.-The commission fully believes.
the report adds, 'in collective dealing
between the operatives and the ex-
that thereby misunderstandings Will
be obviated and cordial relations
maintained, but it is absolutely op-
posed to having the policy of the ca
nal dictated by labor organizations
of the United States or elsewhere
and it is equally opposed to outside
agencies coming into the Canal Zone
and fomenting dissatisfaction"
For positions in the zone for which
none is found to correspond in the
United States. the commission rec
to fix an average wage. based upon
the wages actually paid for similar
services in various representative
parts of the United States"
Tropical Labor View.
Another recommendation is "Tha,
all agreements limiting the use OF
tropical labor be abrogated' and tina,
the canal administration shall here
after retain complete freedom of ac-
tion as to its policy in the employ
ment of union, non-union or tropica
labor"

RADICAL CHANGES IN POLICIES
ADVOCATED FOR CANAL ZONE
Committee Appointed to Investigate Con-
ditions There Makes Report to
5 Secretary Weeks.

the zone have been in conference with
Secretary Weeks and Gov. Morrow re-
garding the recommendations Of the
commission affecting labor, which, 1T
Is said, they came to Washington to
resist.
Asserting that it has failed to find
anything to Justify continued expend-
lture of canal funds to maintain a
naval base at the canal, the report
recommends that operation of various
facilities for naval purposes cease
Immediately, and that hereafter the
canal be operated entirely as a com
merclai agency, until Congress shall
otherwise Indicate"
Recommendation also is made that
any OF the canal activities not neces-
sary Tor ordinary commercial or canal
activities be closed up.
F1nding the employment of "United
states white citizens" instead of ma
tives to be another item of expense.
the commission recommends that
tropical workers be employed ito the
extent possible. taking into considera- :
ton the fact that the canal is. to a
certain point. an element of national
defense and that there may be certain
positions in which aliens ought not to
be employed"
Other Recommendations.
Other recommendations include dis
continuance of free housing, light.
heat and other perauisites given
white employees on the canal at a
cost OF $550.0OO a year to the govern
ment; enforcement of operation of the
fanama railroad from that of the
canal; operation and management of
Ine railroad and steamship line of the
ranama Railroad Company "as are
similar commercial activities in pri-
Vate life and encouragemen of agri-
culture in the zone.
me commission firmly believes
that If the recommendations are
ADOPTED the returns to the govern
ment VIII increase year by year and
that within period of ten or fifteen
years the canal will return a fair in
come on the investment of the fed
eral government therein" the re-
port adds. and estimates the total
cost to date Of the canal at approxi-
mately S500.0OO,0O0.
The commission was headed by
Brig. Gen. w. d. Connors, assistant
chief Of staff; Capt A. B. Fry Of the
Treasury Department: F. A. Molitor,
New York engineer and II. r. Will
son. New York banker and business
man.
Referring to relations between the
canal administration and the repub-
lie Of Panama, the commission de-
clares that the former should be di-
rected mot to handle matters arising
between 1t and the Panama govern
ment directly. but that all such mat
ters arising out of the Canal Zone ac-
tivities he dealt with through the
regular channels of the State Depart
ment.'
