PEACE OF THE WORLD I.
BUSINESS OF ALL PEOPLES

Of arms, cut down the cost of pre-
pairing for the next war, arrange a
system Of handicaps so that no one
shall have too much advantage over
another when they get to wrangling,
and perhaps-the conference has not
decided yet whether it can pass on
that-perhaps add an agreement as
to the number of assassins each one
shall have when he goes out. in the
dark.
Statesmen are helpless to do more,
The man at the head of any govern
ment who tries to go further than
the people are ready to go with him,
stands alone. A great leader may
bring out the ideas that are yelling
up In the minds Of the people and
give them substance; he cannot put
ideas into the heads of the people
and establish them. Not even
Jesus could do that.
Statesmen will bring about the
reign Of law among nations when the
people. command it. The RESPONSE
bility Is not with small number of
old men in washington, men with
moderate intelligence" and encrusted
habits Of thought. The RESPONSE
bility for establishing the reign of
law In the world rests NO more
heavily on any BODY in the world
than it does on the you-and-ne sort
OF folks who read these lines. When
we have abundant good will, when
we stand for the reign of law be-
tween nations, when we give our
consent to it and are willing to sus-
tain 1t. to give it the backing Of our
organized public opinion, then it
Will be as simple and as easy to es-
tablish and keep the peace between
nations as it is to have peace be-
tween the ends of Duluth, or be-
tween Minnesota and Wisconsin, or

There IS no power in the world

that can establish the reign Of law
until this public opinion of mankind
asserts itself.
In the rule of good will, in the
reign OF law, is the way to peace.

NATURALIZATION ONLY CURE FOR
M|NEEv|LS, SAYS union LEADER

Pis one Of the most dangerous. Each
year. out of the men employed in
the coal industry. about $500 are
killed and about 10000 are injured;
but this is only an. estimate. The
question. How many people are in
jured in the mines each year?' can
not be answered. Our statisticians
seem to have the greatest ability in
answering questions which nobody
cares a rap about and the greatest
inability In answering questions OF
prime importance. But approx.
mately with every 100000 tons OF
coal mined in the year 1913 human
life was sacrificed. Think Of the
loss the country suffers in losing so
many citizens each year! Think OF
our immigrant citizens who come
here sto secure and enjoy a better
life and meet their death in the
mines."
Human Wastage Is Appalling.
"But there is human wastage
other than loss Of life or bodily in
juries There is enormous waste
to the injury both of the industry
and the miners lives-of the ener-
gies and abilities Of the mine work
ers. The most obvious wastes are
slack work, underemployment and
unemployment. During a period of
80 years the average working year
Of miner was 215 days. Some years
there were far less than this. This
year, during the first six months,
the bituminous miners had oppor-
tunity to work. less than half time e.
The mental effect Of this is fear, re-
duced efficiency.
This wrecks morale. It is bad
for the mines, bad for the miners,
bad for the public. There is nothing
as a group to remedy this instability
Of employment"
Under existing wage scales, Mr..
Brophy said, the average income of
the miner is less than $1,000 a year.
He cited this as disproof of the claim
OF employers that labor costs are re-
sponsible for tn. profiteering prices
of coal.
When the public knows the essen
tial facts of the industry, Mr.. Brophy
said, there will be an insistent de-
mand for reform, and when that
comes the solution that will newt
ably suggest itself is naturalization.
The employers" he said, "have
demonstrated the hopeless incapa-
city of private management. It con-
stitutes a crushing burden upon the
public. Judged by it's record, it is
indefensible."

Law SET ASIDE
Arizona Statute Prohibiting Is.
Suance Of In junctIonS in
Labor Disputes Hit.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2s,-1n
5to4 decision. handed down by
Chief Justice Taft. the United States
Arizona statute which prohibits bt4e
issuance of Iajunc;ioEs in .ab)r as
putes "unlcss necessary to prevent
irrcpara bic injury to property or a
property right" Justices B"andcis
Pitney, Clarke and Holmes dissentcd.
The Arizona law is similar to sec
ton 20 of the Clayton act, passed
by congress in 1914. Chief Justice
Taft explained thlt the courts de-
cision does not in:alidate the Clay
ton law because the equality clause
Of the fourteenth amendment (fed-
cral conStitution) does not apply to
congressional, but only to state,
actiOn.'
The case came before the court
as a result Of a boycott against
Bisbee (ArizO restaurant, owned by
: William TruaX. who refused to grant
an eight hour day to employees He
was denied an injunction III the
Arizona courts. which held that the
law of that state prohibits these
. writs when property is not injured,
, and that the patronage is not prop

mo man has an invested right in
the esteem Of the public" said he
Arizona supreme court. while
the plaintiff (Truax) had clear
right to refuse the demand of the
union, the union had a right to ad
vertise the cause of the strike"
In reversing this decision, Chief
Justice Taft held that patronage is
a property right and must be pro
tected by the fourteenth amendment.
The court took the same position
in this boycott case as in the Gran
tie City picketing case-that there
must be no importuning by workers
to win public sentiment .
The court expressed displeasure
at boycott methods that stir the
public's emotions by a recital of the
workers wrongs, even though the
methods were not criminal, but re-
suited in successful boycott.
The chief justice suggested thai
the workers should make "a simple
statement Of the fact of th- strike
and a request to withhold pat on
age
The chief justice failed to state
how he reconciled his two positions:
First, patronage is property and :a1
he projected against a boycott by an
injunction. Second. workers have
the right to take this alleged "prop-
erty' from an owner CD if they Use
dancing master methods.
1t is clear that the chief justice
looks upon his first position L;
principle and his second position as
merely a method to soften his blow
against the boycott. Or, in other
words, workers may boycott, but if
the boycott is successful they can be
stopped by an Injunction judge.
The decision would seem to mean
hat Il state cannot pass arti-in-
JUNCTION legislation along ines of
he Clayton act.
Federal judges are beyond the
each Of the people and they ignore
he labor sections of the Clayton act,
50 the supreme court states that
these labor sections are valid.
State Judges are responsible to the
people, and it is risky for them 10
ignore state legislation based on the
Clayton act. so the supreme court
outlaws such legislation.
In both cases the injunction Judge
has free hand
