Owing to the fact that the supply
Of constitutions Of the state farm bu-
rcau federation was exhausted and a
new supply had to be ordered from
the secretary at Jackson by President
Porter, the mailing out Of ballots to
the members Of the county council
had to be postponed until today. For
that reason the date for the final can.
vass of the vote has been postponed
for week. The members who receive
the bal OTIS this week are urged to re-
mail them at once so that they can
be counted. A large majority of those
to whom the ballots were mailed last

will rot be opened until after the 9th

subject to their Jurisdiction. That is
perfectly plain. II Congress should
pass law and the President should
sign 1t, establishing any form of in
voluntary seryitude, the courts would
certainly declare Is null and void and
no man could be held under It.
"But let me tell you few things
about the anto-strike bill, which Ruth
Is to tell the teacher about tomorrow,
and / want particularly to tell you
about the involuntary servitude' part
Of 1t.
"In the first place, this bill applies
only to railroade engaged in inter-
state transportation - that is, carry
ing freight and passengers from one
state to another. Congress has no
power to enact laws affecting rail-
roads doing business only within the
borders of single state, and, on the
other hand, Congress is given jurisdic-
ton by the Constitution over com
merce between the states. Years and
years ago, whe nthe railroads were
short and when every community FRO
duced what it needed for its exist
ence, 1t wouldn't have made much diff
ference If a lot of men got together
and made an agreement which would
result in the trains not running. The
country would have felt little incon-
venience, but it could have gotten
along some way. But it is very diff
ferent now. All of the large cities de-
pen absolutely on the railroads for
their daily food. Milk is carried hun
dreds of miles on trains from rural
districts to the cities and If these
trains did not run regularly, child zen
would be without fresh milk and IT, ere
would be lots Of suffering and death
IL thC tiuiho "CiC otoppCu, thS i''Su
and fuel on hand in the cities would
not last much more than a week. Hun
dreds of thousands of people who
work in the cities live out in suburban
towns, and il the trains were to stop
running, the could not get to their
work.
THAT shows the absolute necessity
of keeping the trains running regular
ly. Now as to the involuntary servi-
tude' matter - let me remind you that
no man is required to go to work for
the railroads. He does so voluntarily.
H casks for the job before he gets it.
so there is nothing involuntary in the
manner in which he enters the 'serv-
itude.'
"Now there are two things that
would prevent man being held in
that employment against his will -
one is the article of the Constitution
which | quoted to you, and the other

them. The railroad employees have
entered a sort Of public service, and
they owe 1t to the public not to con-
spired to leave the public without any
service at ALL"
But the public owes them some
thing, doesn't It, Uncle Ted?" asked
Ruth.
Yes, indeed, Ruth and the railroad
bill which Congress passed last spring
provides for a sort of court to try
questions arising out OF disputes be-
tween the railroads and their en-
ployees. l think most people are of
the opinion that the public has healt
very fairly with the railroad en-
poyees, and is entitled to call for as
surance Of fair treatment in return.
The purpose Of the anti-strike bill Is
to make sure that the public will not
suffer because of interruption of train
service"

is provision In the anti-strike bill,
which | will read to you. I sent to
Washington and got copy Of the bill.
Here is what It says: Nothing in this
act shall be taken to deny to any in
dividual the right to quit his employ
ment for any reason
isn't that plain enough?"
"Well, then, what is the anti-strike
law for?" asked Ruth. 81 thought the
bill said the men mustn't quit"
"Oh, no, 1t doesn't say anything OF
the kind" responded her uncle. "The
bill says that 1t shall be unlawful for
any man to solicit or induce other men
to quit their employment on interstate
railroads, or for any man to obstruct
or delay the movement of commerce,
or for any man to use force or threats
to prevent other men from engaging
or continuing in railroad employment,
or for any man to injure or destroy
bridges or tracks or other property in
order to delay traffic, or for any two
or more men to enter into an agree
ment or conspiracy with intent to sub
stantially hinder or restrain or pre-
vent the operation of trains in inter-
state commerce.
"You see boiled down to few
words, the anti-strike bill says to the
railroad employees, attend to your
own business and leet other peoples
bushes alone If they don't like their
jobs, they can quit and geet better
ones, but they must not interfere with
the enjoyment Of the same right by
other people. The railroads are what

"Whe nthe teacher asks for current

going to tell about the bill that has
been passed by the Senate at Wash
ington making 1t against the law for
railroad men to strike. She stopped at
Nettie Smiths on the way home from
school today and she heard Nettie's
father talking about 1t and he said
that II the House of Representatives
passes the bill too, and the President
signs 1t the railroad men will be
bound to some kind Of servitude that
she doesn't remember except that 1t
would be Just like slavery, and she Is
going to tell the teacher that. I think
she is wrong" 'e'
Involuntary servitude' is probably
what Mr.. Smith said" replied Uncle
Ted. THAT is the expression used in
the amendment to the Constitution
which abolished slavery after the Civil
War. The constitutional amendment
provides that Neither slavery nor in
voluntary servitude, except as a pun
ishment for crime whereof the party
shall have been convicted, shall exist

back to the East Side, establishing
their household goods on the very
brink Of the East River. A home over
there seventy-five years ago was con-
sidered proof Of ones substantial
wealth. Then commerce drove the
residents west and 500 nthe water
front was a part of the near-slums of
the city. This summer somebody from
Fifth Avenue rediscovered it. And a
group Of young society people have
taken a cluster of houses at the east
end of 9Th street and are making
them over into homes de luxe. The
houses are to form thre sides on a
open square facing the river bank

Frank Tinney always has proven to
be as great an amusement off the
stage as on. Christmas day he figured
in a little skit which was more or less
involuntary on his part. Down at his
Long Island farm, he has turkeys and
chickens and ducks and everything
else that impractical farmers make a
great showing of. Being generous
person he happened to think - when
Christmas had already arrived = that
1t would be kindly thought to take
q nice fat turkey to Ed Wynn. He ac-
cordingly started for town-with the
turkey still alive. He got safely as far
as 42nd street and Broadway In a
taxi, when the turkey decided 1t had
travelled far enough. It jumped out of
the window and started up Broadway
afoot and awning. Frank decided he
could make better time If he weren't
impeded by the taxicab so he started
after it, also afoot, calling to the tue
key as he ran. He finally caught at
at 48th street. But Ed Wynn was
through dinner when Frank and the
turkey arrived.

There is a theater in New York
where melodrama of the good old
fashioned kind holds undisputed sway.
"A Girl of the Underworld" "Caugh

all that appear on the equally old
fashioned bills posted at the entrance.
There Is always the silk-hatted vii
lain, the outcast, innocent girl or
wife, "the papers," and all else of
those days when one knew something
Of what to expect when he bought a
theater ticket. The only drawback to
this theater is the sign children in
arms not admitted" But the other
night learned one solution of that
problem as we'll as Of the price of
theater tickets. The billboards have

docile person to take me. A man and

tween the acts we went out to get
some fresh air and there was the wo-
man telling the man the whole story
of the first act. Then he took her
