Regarding Judge Engerud the res
olutions said in part: Judge Enger'
ud's service on the bench while briel
was notable. The work Of judge Of
an appellate court was not altogether
agreeable to him. There seemed tc
him stiltedness and constraln
about it to which he could not readily
adapt himself. It lacked the menta
stimulus afforded by practice at thu
bar. But the record of his work as {
Judge shows the rare qualities of mint
that he brought to that work. His
written opinions were models of brew
ity and perspicuity. and the Judge
ments which they expressed were al
most invariably accepted by all th'
parties in interest as impartial ant
just."~

Gompers Declares Labor's Sym

Record.

Washington, Sept. 7.-General Per-
;hing and Samuel Gompers had a tilt
last8night at dinner given at the con-
clusion of the exercises here cele-
brating Lafayette-Marne day. At least
official Washington regards it as a
clash over the question of whether la
Dor won the war. Mr. Gompers had
spoken on the after-dinner program
and while he made no claims that la
Dor won the war he did tell Of the
record of the American Federation Of
Labor during the war and declared
that previous to the entry Of the Unit
ed States its sympathy was with the
cause of the allies.
PERSHING'S ATTITUDE -
General Pershing, however, appar-
emily regarded'Mr. Gomper's remarks
as claim that labor had won the war.
Some of those who heard his remarks
quote him as saying substantially:
"The policies of this Republic are
not determined by labor unions or by
any other organizations; but by the
concensus of opinion of it's citizens of
whatever affiliation.
II want to say that every American
is a patriot whether he belogns to
some labor organization or is just an
ordinary citizen; it is not quest ion
of labor unions, it is question of
whether we belong to some organiza-
tion or not"
