THE GREAT DISARMA-
MENT MEETING

The limitation of armament confer
ence, to which the whole world was
invited, convened in Washington, d.
c., on the 11th inst.,. and so quickly
was the American proposition made,
that William Jennings Bryan, the
great commoner said November
18th bid fair to become an even great
er anniversary than the day before
November 11th-Arimstice Day.
The proposition as submitted to the
world conference was short and to the
point, but, nevertheless, widely COM
prehensive, to-wit:
What America Proposes.
/. Scrap sixty-six capital ships,
totaling 1,878,043 tons-thirty from
America, nineteen from Great Britain,
seventeen from Japan.
2. Abandon all building programs
America to give up her 1916 pro-
pram, Japan to give up her "eight and
eight" program and Great Britain to
cease construction of four new super
Hoods.
3. Enter upon a ten-year holiday
with Great Britain and Japan, during
which there will be no building.
d. Keep the relative naval strength
as they are at ,present-Great Britain
slightly in the lead, the United States
second, and Japan training a bad
third.
5. Limit the size of future battle
ships, built for replacement, to $4,000
tons.
g. Set the limit of capital ships to
be retained at % for Great Britain, 18
for the United States and 10 for ia
pan.
This movement Of open diplomacy
the laying of Americas cards face up
ward on the conference table by Sec
retary Hughes, startled the world and
at once won the approval Of Ameri-
can statesmen, both Democrats and
Republicans. Many who were scepti-
cal Of the conference bringing sub
stantial results have become hopeful
and leading world figures early ex-
pressed the belief that Japan and
Englond would accept the naval holi-
day proposal as formulated by Secre-
tary Hughes.

NUMBER IA
HENDERSON COUNTY 100
YEARS OLD IN 1922.

Next year Henderson county will
celebrate her i00th Anniversary by
having the biggest Fair in her his
tory. In connection with this big
event will also be staged a "Home
Coming Week" for all Henderson
countians who live in other states and
in other counties of this state.
New features will be added. The
live stock show will be added to what
we had last year. Mr.. Charlie Hop
per, of Madison county will bring his
herd Of Hereford cattle over. More
and better amusements will be Sc
cured. The length of the Fair will be
extended four days. More and better
exhibits of all kinds that were on dis
play win be shown. H. A. Powers,
County Agent, is now beginning to get
material and plans ready so that a
catalogue may be issued soon after
Xmas. This will enable all citizens
Of the county to get together and put
Henderson county among those which
have a real county fair. There is no
piece Of public Improvement of great
er value to the county than an institu-
tion Of this sort.

|GOODBYE HANDSHAKE-
WELCOME EMBRACE.

DIR. FrancSsos Atcheelli, a New
York health expert, says the health of
this nation is menaced by the Ameri-
can custom of handshaking. The doc
tor says:
president Wilson is suffering from
the effects of too much handshaking
under nerve tension. The pernicious
custom undoubtedly was a contribut-
ing factor in the death of Theodore
Roosevelt, and / am sure it was ma
terially responsible for the death Of
Enrico Caruso.
II do not think it will be many
years before before Americans turn to
embracing or some other less harmful
form Of greeting"

LABOR DAY

On Monday next the laboring men
and women throughout the country
will meet together to celebrate the day
that has been set aside as day of
rest and recreation for those who toll,
and present indications are that In
every section of the nation the observ-
ance of Labor Day will be on a larger
scale than ever before in the history
of the labor movement. 1t is there
fore incumbent upon every member OF
an organized body to do their bit in
making the coming celebration an
event which will be remembered for
many years to come.
There is to be no parade of organ
lied labor in Hamilton this year on
Labor Day, but there is to be a
mighty celebration of the day at the
fairgrounds, and every member of
local organized labor and his family
should attend this celebration.
The strength with which labor
turns out in the observance of the
coming Labor Day is going far to-
wards bringing home to the enemies
of labor realization of the fact that
an organization of good, honest men
and women, bound together by the
ties of brotherly love and built on the
never-dying principle of justice to all
men, as exemplifed by the American
Federation of Labor, cannot be de-
stroyed without destroying every
fundamental principle on which our
government is founded and for which
our forefathers fought, bled and died
So get busy. Do your bit Don't
leave it to the other fellow and then
criticize him because he does not sue
ceed. 1t is your fight, and why not
get into the middle of it now and help
make this the biggest Labor Day
ever known? Come out Monday and
help swell the crowd.

No people can prosper as a nation

LIVE AND LET LIVE

"Live and let live" In those four
words lies the philosophy of human
progress. When mankind evolved
that thought civilization became pos
sible. 1t meant the abandonment of
the era of brute force, of woe to the
vanquished. 1t meant the recognition
of human brotherhood, of the inter-
dependence of man upon man.
Live and let live" Let capital and
labor get together and enjoy the pros
perity knocking at our door. Forget
the cave man tactics.
If capital imagines for moment
that it can starve labor into submis-
sion, or if labor imagines it can
starve capital into submission, each is
making great mistake. Each should
and must realize that one is depend
ent on the other and the prosperity of
the country on both Business de-
preston means labor depression, and
both suffer to the same degree. "Live
and let live" should be printed in let
ters of gold and hung in every indus
trial plant, store and office in the
land, and equally conspicuous should
be LET US live 100 per cent Ameri-
can" We cannot be that while we
place our individual profit above that
of the common good.
Capital and labor must realize soon
er or later, that they must meet on
common ground; that they must give
and take, if capital and labor are to
go ahead and the country prosper.
If, through any cause, industry is
halted, then labor suffers in like de-
gree with capital At the same time
capital must realize that labor is en-
titled to fair days wage for an hon.
est days work, and labor must un-
derstand that capital is entitled to a
fair return on invested capital and
an honest days work.
When capital and labor embrace
the cardinal principles of Give and let
live" and LET US be 100 per cent
American" in everyday practice,
then strikes, lockouts and all disputes
appear.

1t is with q feeling Of pride that
Press is proud of the fact that the
the Butler County Press presents
itself to the public this week. The
commercial, business and professional
interests of the city, by their liberal
and generous patronage of our adj

ganized labor movement in Hamilton

Scarcely an advertiser whenapproach-

all seemed anxious and pleased to sub
scribe for space.
Remember, brothers and sisters, it
was only through the generosity OF
the advertisers whose announcements
appear in this splendid Labor Day
issue of The Press, your champion,
was made possible. Let labor, in it's
turn, be equally loyal to its friends
and extend its patronage only to
those who have thus generously and
gladly given evidence of their friend
ship and who believe that the work
ingman's dollar is as valuable and
desirable as is that of the purse-pfoud
would be aristocrat who drives to his
establishment in an expensive and
luxurious car.
To the generosity of many of the
local labor unions, who by their lib
eral subscriptions for space, much
credit is due also for the large size
of this issue.
To all those who have so generously
assisted in making this Labor Day
number a great success, we extend
our most sincere and heartfelt thinks.

LABOR SUNDAY

Sunday is Labor Sunday In many
of the churches the day will be cele-
brated by special reference appropri-
ate to the day by the various min
listers. Labor Sunday has grown to
be an important anniversary in an in
creasingly large number of churches.
1t is urged that every member of
organized labor attend some church
at least once next Sunday.
At the Trinity Episcopal Church,
Sixth and Butler streets, Rector H.
Cowley-C Carroll announces that he will
hold special labor services at 10:45
a. M, to which he extends hearty
invitation to every workingman and
woman to attend, whether member
of organized labor or not.
The observance of Labor Sunday by
trades-unionists of America was re-
commended at a convention of the
American Federation of Labor, the
churches being requested to devote
part of the day to the presentation of
the problem of the workingman. 1t
was further resolved that the various
central and local labor bodies be re-
quested to cooperate in every legiti-
mate way with the ministers, who
would thus observe Labor Sunday,
seeking with them to secure as large
an audience of workingmen and others
as possible.
So go to some church next Sunday
any one of them: they are all good
