MISREPRESENTATION:

MISREPRESENTATION:
Bernard Shaw has said that. lock-
ing at the condition of this world
today, he had come to tn. con-
clusion that the rest of the planets
used the earth for an insane asylum"
If we are to Judge the race by the
"brains" 1t has chosen to s'managa"
society Shaw came to the right
conclusion.
For who but the inhabitants Of an
insane asylum would submit to be-
ing driven OFF their farms and locked
out of the factories. mines. ships
and railroads by the millions. be-
cause the brains say, "You have
produced too much?"
Imagine sane men accepting the
''overproduction" OF wheat, corn,
beef, pork, oats, ,millet and mutton
as treason why ro'''icss of women
and children should hunger In the
richest nation of ancient or modern
times.
Imagine men in their right senses
accepting the "overproduction" of
houses as an excuse for homeless
families. and saying that too much
cotton. wool, fax, cloth, silk. fur,
leather, too many dresses. shoes,
suits, hats, caps and apparel Of all
kinds accounted for rags and naked
ness.
Imagine natural savages accept
ing "overproduction" as the ''rea-
son" for tribal hunger and naked
ness. The chiefs that tried 1t on
them would not hold their jobs Is
minutes.
1t is only among the super-highly
civilized, such as we Americans es-
pecially confess ourselves to be, that
such t'reasons" are accepted as the
gospel Of economic truth and the
sure foundation of moral law

c. d. Waters, traffic manager Of the

been chosen chairman of the transpor
tation committee of the National Gran

treasurer OF the Woodbury. Granite CO.,
who recently resigned. Other members

Mr. Waters has just returned from a
monthly meeting of the New England
traffic league, a branch of the Boston
chamber OF commerce, which held its
meeting in Boston
Discussion during the meeting cen
tered chiefly about the proposed in
crease Of 10 per cent in freight rates,
which the railroads recently made
known. A vote against the raise taken
during the meeting was unanimous, and
the league is determined TO prevent, If
possible, any such increase in rates, be.
heving il unnecessary, for, as Mr.. Wa
ters declares. "the country's business
cannot absorb greater traffic expense
with an already overload OF cost for
production" A decrease rather than an
Increase will be the purpose of the
traffic league.

Throwing Sticks Into River.

Levasseur, three -year-old son of Mr.,
and Mrs. Henry r. Levasseur, lost his
life in Sleepers river yesterday after
noon
At noon, Harold, with his four year
old playmate, Shermam.P. Woods, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Raymond M. Woods,
was seen by Mrs. Woods, but when
they were called to dinner few min
utes later, the pair had disappeared
The search revealed that the Woods
boy was at the foundry office in Fair
banks village nearly mile away and
that his playmate had fallen into the
river and had been swept away by the
strong current. The two lads had been
seen throwing sticks into the water.
Evidently Harold Levasseur had ven
tured too near, lost his balance and had
fallen into the swollen stream.

Both Sides to Wage Con-
troversy We're Heard By
Officials
SEC. DAVIS HOPES
FOR GOOD NEWS"
Employees Claim the Pack
ers Are Trying to Break
Agreement

Washington, d. c., March 22.-Rep-
resentatives of the packers employees
were in private conference to-day with
Secretary Davis before the meeting OF
President Harding's cabinet at which
the controversy between the packers
and the workers was expected to be
discussed.
The conference to-day followed one
last night at which Secretaries Davis,
Hoover and Wallace heard further ar
guments by the spokesmen for the
packers. Later conciliators Of the de-
partment of labor were called in by the
cabinet officers, but only Secretary
Davis met o-day with the union OH
eials.
The utmost secrecy has surrounded
the meetings thus far The controver-
sy is understood To center largely
around the wartime agreement as TO
wages and working conditions when
the employees claim the packers now
seek to break by proposing reduc-
tion in wages of l2ia to ID per cent,
The employees say the agreement was
to be effective for one year after the
war ended, while the contention of the
packers il reported to be that the war
actually has ended and the agreement
therefore no longer is in effect.
Mr.. Davis took much data regarding
the controversy to the cabinet meet-
ing On leaving for the White House
he said that he hoped to have some
good news" within short time
