must direct our action the same as

We are all students and should be

community the duty of gathering and
imparting all the knowledge possible
This can best be done by closer rela-
tionship with each other and applying
ourselves to a complete understanding

as an informant to questions asked.
He enjoys being able to sit still and

Jobs to allow rest and diversion for the
morrow" One tractor is discing the
potato ground for planting; the other
is hauling wood. The farmers are cul-
tivating with teams and hoeing the
corn and soy beans in the lower east
field. The crate makers are rushing
their work and conscripting all hands
possible. Most of our comrades are
glad to be able to assist at these dou-

long timbers of the right width; they
are run over to the cutoff saw and

REDUCTION
 OF WAGES TO
 CAUSE STRIFE

Indianapolis, April 13-Wage reduc- ion movements of employers in the building trades are becoming nation wide, William Dobson, secretary of the BrickIayers, Masons and Plaster CTS 1nternauonal union, declared to- day na message to Secretary Davis # the Labor Department, adding that within a short time turmoil and in- dustrial warfare will be rampant Mir. Dobson's telegram indorsed legislation to compel all parties to , labor disputes to get together and ar bitrate a binding agreement.
 Tt is compulsory upon our mem bers." said MT. Dobson's message, ito conciliate and arbitrate wages, griev- ance sand all other changeable con ditions that tend to cause disputes with employers, and when an agree ment is entered into or an arbitra- tio decision is rendered our members must hold same invioIate.
 This splendid policy, call it "com- pulsory arbitration" if you will, has resulted in not one official strike or levying of one cent of strike assess ments upon the earnings of our mem bers for more than twenty years-a record that we are proud of and one mended by our employers individual ly and collectively, throughout the American continent.
 'ewe regret to say, however, and it is beyond our understanding that our employers universally are joining wage reduction movements that wan tonly and outrageously violate these splendid and peaceapie relations of so many years standing. Further, such employers now are resorting to for cibIe measures and take the reduc- ton or leave it'' now is their slogan. As a result lockouts and countless strikes are the order of the day, our unions protesting the reductions and demanding that their cardinal prin- ciples of inconciliation arbitration shall stand. These movements of force are becoming nationwide and within a short period of time turmoil and industrial warfare will be ram nanf'

CONSIDER QUESTIONS
 INVOLVED BY DEMAND

Buenos Aires. April 13-Argentine government officials are considering the questions involved by the demand rom United States Consul General Robertson yesterday that non-union men be provided to unload the steam r Martha Washington.
 The Martha Washington, in spite of 9 protest from agents of the Munson line, managing operators of the ves- sel has been moved out of her dock and is lying idle in the harbor. In case the government refuses to grant protection to the men employed in unloading the steamer, it is expected the Martha Washington will return to New York with the steamer Huron now in the harbor of Montevideo. In such case Buenos Aires will be elimi- mated from the ports of call of these
 eSsels.
 Officials of the Portworkers Union express confidence that the govern ment will refuse to interfere in the situation, fearing such action would prectpltate general port strike.

The damage suit of Ralph R. Loundsbury, Philips Manor, N. Y., against the Connecticut company was heard before Judge John J. Walsh in Common Pleas court yesterday.
