Mobiles of
Russia Offered in
Matrimonial Mart

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. las
ISOLATED Press Mail.)-The arranging
of marriages between Russian princes
and well-to-do American is the
latest scheme advanced here by an
ingenious Russian to secure a liveli-
hood for voorhees,, penniless refugees
living on American and other charity.
1t is argued that the American
woman would, in addition to the title,
make a good business bargain, since
the eXiled Russian Noblemen all have
large estates which they hope to re-
cover when private property is re-
stored and Bolshevik Russia no more.
Many Russians have open minds on
the marriage question. Many of the
refugee Russian ONE have married
Turks since their arrival here, in or
der to get temporary homes. The
Russian men have followed suit.
Many OF the older ones have married
Greek women.
Youth has it's ~follies, age its stu
pidities," said a Russian general, no
longer young, when inviting a friend
TO his wedding.
The difficulty of locating these
American wives aoross the seas is not
one to stump the imaginative Russian
mind, which readily adapts itself 10
the lighter branches of commerce., and
has succeeded here with cafes, beauty
parlors, manicure and tea shops, con-
cert halls and picnic grounds. The
first and only bathing pavilion near
here has been established at Floria
beach, on the Marmora sea, by a group
nf Ganrpinn nrin naCSnS fhrnr,on Tho
loan of American Red Cross tents.
The condition of Russian men refu-
gees here is deplorable, as there are
few industries or factories to provide
work. Recently the French govern
ment cut off its food rations to sew
eral thousand men, though still feed
ing a certain number of children,
women and old men. They get pass
ports with difficult to go abroad to
other countries. Serbia has accepted
SOM twenty thousands, but her leni-
ency,to refugees is finding its limit.
Prince GolitZyn, who formerly held
immense estates near Kiev, and may
recover them, among hundreds of 9th
ers, is courageously attempting to
earn a living by utilizing his knowl-
edge of precious stones, of which he
once had a large collection.
Such men often lose their clothing
and baggage to rapacious landlords
who serve them in default of the pay
ment of room rent, but the Russian
~aristocrats eve lose their p%oliteness
and courtesy in adversely. 1t is not a
skin deep Yeneer. They still kiss rev.
erently the hands of women, after the
manner of their Ountry Often cheer.
full and courageous in the face of pow
erty, they share their last money with
friends.

Gym Team Overcomes Long
Lead But Loses Its Game

A pretty case of uphill fight was
displayed last Saturday afternoon at
Lahaina in the Gymnasium-Lahaina

the latter in ten innings of play, Is

Just how it happened no one seems
to know but when the first inning

thirteen runs, a lead which would
have dishearted seasoned veterans.
The Gym lads showed that they had
the STIFF in them for by keeping on
plugging ahead and holding the op-
position down they had the score
evened up in the ninth frame. The
strain told its story and Lahainaluna
slot over the winning run in teh ex-

Talk With the Farmers"

The following would indicate that
the farmers will "get THEIRS" as
have organized workers, these many
years:
Capitalists do not make prices
with guns or torches, as farmers do
in some cases, and when unionists use
strong-arm methods they sometimes
do not escape scathless. But the
farmers have larger freedom from
prosecution than other citizens, and
yet they are asking specific immuni-
ties from laws binding other classes,
and thereby are confessing that they
wish to break laws designed for the
common good, and which are futile
unless enforced on ALL Possibly the
strangest inconsistency of all is the
farmers apparently sincere belief
that they are Disseminated against,
and oppressed and are bearing the
burdens of Others"
The writer advises the farmers to
''let well enough alone," and stop
finding fault with banks when these
institutions refuse credit.

EIGHT HOURS FOR
BELGIUM

Brussels, Belgium eight-hour
day and 48-hour week are established
by law in this country In letter to
the ministry of industry, labor and
food, the king said:
II have just ratified the hours of
employment act, the result of long
discussions in parliament and of an
agreement for which the chamber and
the senate have made a praise-worthy
effort of Cancellation. The eight
hour day has therefore been won le-
gally. 1t remains now to win it from
an economic point of view"
The king urged greater production
on the part of workers, and new
methods on the part of the employers
that Belgium may export to sustain
two-thirds of it's population This
country can only support one-third
of its population, the remainder de-
pending on industry and commerce.

WAGE CUT DEMAND
OF Packers Refused By
Judge Alschuler

Chicago.-Federal Judge Alschuler.
arbitrator in the meat-packing indus
try, has refused the packers demand
for horizontal wage cut of 5 cents
an hour. Approximately 100000
workers are affected by the decision.
The arbitrator held that reductions
in the cost of living are not as pro-
nounced as employers claim, and in
some instances there has been no
decline. Taxas, he said, are constant
ly mounting, street car fares remain
60 per cent above pre-war prices,
while gas, electricity and fuel con-
tinue at high rates.
Newspapers, most general ne
cessity, remain at the highest point,
from 100 to 200 per cent above 1914
prices" he said Among other costs
which have not started to decline, the
arbitrator named rents, telephone
and telegraph service, freight and
passenger rates, while such essential
foods as milk, bread and bakery pro-
ducts, fruits and meats show only
slight decreases.

STRONG APPEAL
For Cooperation Issued By
Head of Illinois State
Federation

Springfield, nl.-John H. Walker,
president of the Illinois State FEEDER
alton of Labor, has issued this state
ment on the value of cooperation:
'The man or woman who buys
goods at profiteer's shop when they
could go to cooperative shop, are
idiots and ought not be trusted with
money! said George Bernard Shaw
the other day, in speaking before the
cooperative society of Sunderland,

dous movement-you have got about
one-sixth of the industry of the coun-
try, and | look forward to the time
when you will have the whole industry
of the country. Then the movement
will have become part of the coun-
try continued Shaw.
"The Ripley, England, cooperative
society loaned $4,000 to the Derby
shire miners, and $4,000 to the Motifs
miners in their recent strike. The
Coalville cooperative society voted a
credit of $65,000 to the Miners Union
in that district.
''The Leicestershire miners organi-
zation issued vouchers to its members,
which were honored by the co-opera-
tive society for their face value in
merchandise. The money is to be re-
paid, with no interest charged.
"The Congleton cooperative society
also honored these vouchers and gave
the miners 1,500 four-pound loves of
bread a week that was baked by them.
This society also gave the Yorkshire
miners credit of $4,000.
Scores of other societies gave cred
it to the miners. Many societies made
donations outright, and all of them
sold goods to the strikers at cost

COULD CUT PRICES IN
TWO

New York.-The average large
confectionery store could cut prices
squarely in two and still make sub

official of the national confectionery
salesmen's association, at the conven-

The statesmen are affected by high
prices, and are protesting against
the profiteers. "Their merciless and
selfish gouging has been permitted
long enough" said Fischer. "If they
expect to sell goods, they must check
their greed and content themselves
with reasonable profit"

DISILLUSION SURE
Government Boards Can
Never Take Place of
Trade Union

London, -Disillusion is
the fate of those who believe trade
union activity can be supplanted by
government boards that will enforce
fair working conditions and living
wage
The awakening is thus referred to
by the labor editor of Reynolds's
Newspaper, leading liberal publica-
tion in this city:
Apprehension is being felt in labor
circles at the apparent lack of official
interest in the question of trade
boards Originally instituted to
force the sweating employer to toe
the line and pay at least a living
minimum wage, their arrival was
hailed with general satisfaction The
number of boards have steadily in
creased, many having been sanctioned
during the last II months. Unfortun-
ately there has been a marked hostil-
ity on the part of many employers
who have adopted every conceivable
method of frustrating the beneficial
results of the trade board movement.
Now, however, it would seem that this
hostility, fatal to the badly paid
worker in weak trade union, has
spread to the ministry of labor.
Questions are being asked as to the
delay in calling together the boards
already officially in operation, and
also to the apparent disinclination to
extend the movement to other spheres
where boards are badly needed. 1t is
sincerely hoped that the trade board
movement is not doomed, as in that
direction lies the short cut to the old
days of sweated labor and evil work
ing conditions. An official intima-
tion of the governments attitude on
this question is eagerly awaited"
