State Y. NJ G. A. covering seven
weeks, and in the next class three
schools tied for honors, with every
boy in the school enrolled, every boy

contest which provides : that in a
case of a tie in record the avearge
of the examining grade would de-
termine the winner, Stanton is the
winner of the silver cup.
According to- the report of the

second to Cynthiana in that class,
and Danville had third place. Hon

E. ". Donaldson, State Boys Work
Secretary, reports that in u high
schools of the State 2.400 boys were
enrolled in the contest. Some

"Year after year the public is

Having learned OF the manner in
which our courts of equity came to
be established in America, and be-
fore entering into a. further review
OF equity proceedings in connection
with industrial disputes, it is of value
tc know what English precedents
the American courts of equity had
for, issuing injunctions restraining
wage earners from doing certain spe-
cific acts.
AS the British courts of chancery
have not made a practice Of issuing
injunctions in connection with in
dustrial disputes. there is a popular
belief. that no injunctions have ever
been issued by these courts in con-
neetion with strikes or other dis
putes between workmen and en-
ployers. .,.. 10,

An examination of these two cases
is of particular value and Importance

New York, March 16.-That the
Kansas -''.can't-strike" law is based
on the theory that labor is a COM
modify was Indicated very clearly
by Judge Higgins of the Kansas
court Of industrial relations, in ex-
planning the workings of the law to
business men in this city.
The. speaker said that the chief
legal principle of the Kansas law
was stated by Sir Mathew Hale, Of
England, about 200 years. ago, who
wrote that the charges for use of
the kings wharf must not be .ex-
orbitant, but must be fair and rea-
sonable, because the wharf is inn
pressed with a public interest and
is no longer a matter of private
right only.'
1t will:be noticed that Judge Hug
gins goes back to the times when no
one doubted the legality or morality
Of holding workers in serfdom.

Washington, March -16-Reaffirm-

Gil again called on workers to ig-
more such writs.
"The. only possible and practical
remedy in the face of a power so

in a flat refusal on, the part of labor
to recognize or abide by the terms

notifying other. workmen of the rea-
sons for the strike. These placards
resulted in keeping workmen away
from the company,s- plant, and, find
ing that the workers publicity cam

strike-breakers, the company applied
to Vice Chancellor Malin for an in

great cause of continuous operation
might be termed heavy equipment
or elaborate equipment. This cause
operated to greater or less extent
in the case of almost all the 'contin-

OF continuous operation.
In most Of the continuous indus
tries the number Of employees en-
gagged on shift work is not as large
as might be supposed, because con-
tinuous operation usually comes at
stage where it is possible for a. few
men to, handle a large tonnage of
materials. The extreme example of
this is in the water supply of New
York where some 500 men on shift
work daily pump some four or five
million gallons Of water.
Larger Industries Lead Way.
Nevertheless, there are SO many
OF these continuous Industries and
many of them are of such substan-
tlal size, that. taken all together, the
great steel industry probably does
not account for more than a. fourth
OF fifth of the, total of shift workers.
Some Of the larger Industries. out

on eight-hour shifts; but all except a

VERY roughly, the number OF
shift wirkers in the United States is
probably wells over 100000, though
likely not as large sos 100000. And

The following statement, which
defines the position Of the Liberal
party in relation to the announced
conclusions. of the recent conference
of rogressives held in Chicago Feb.
20, was given out today by J. A. H.
Hopkins, executive chairman of the
Committee OF 4S:
ION Feb. 20 the Chicago confer

trial workers, teachers, ministers and
other ,progressives. declared it's be-
lief in the necessity Of immediate
political action against national
abuses.
"The conference of the Nonparti-
san league, held in Chicago on Feb.
IS, declared for a new political party.
with these declarations and with
the Address to the American People
by the Chicago conference as a
statement of popula grievances that
must be removed, the Comittee of
48 is in accord.
The "Committee is also in accord
with the announced purpose Of the
Chicago conference to confer with
existing political organizations and
with individuals who are in SYM
pathy with the. statements. contained
in it's address.
''The Committee of 4S does not
approve of nominating candidates
through the Republican or Demo-
+ cratic primaries simply because
these candidates personally favor
certain of these principles. Exper-
fence has shown that under the
present system of party government
even the best men,, when so elected,
find themselves overruled by the
Party Caucaus, and their proposals
| discarded by Conference Committees.
'In order to accomplish these
purposes it Unnecessary to organize
a new party without delay.

these principles. Full tickets will
be nominated in 1922 by the State
Organizations a lr ady established

This investigation was conducted
by the committee on work periods of
the American Engineering societies.
The survey was under the direction
of DR.. Horace B. Drury, formerly of
the faculty of Ohio State university.
The report in full will not be
available for perhaps another
month, it is said, but it is known
definitely that the investigation has
established as a scientific finding
that the efficiency Of workers is
greater under the eight hour day
than where the twelve-hour day is
in force.
ThEi steel industry was not studied
in making. this survey, but the COM
mission found an astonishing mum :
ber of workers in continuous indus
tries outside the steel mills. Steel
mills will be the subject of a later

industry says the report, its in

been found that the extent of con-

or fifty industries which involve a
