ALL THE WORLD NEEDS WORK.

ALL tuE NVhLD NEEDS NOhh.
Mr.. Samuel NJ. vauclain. president
OF the great Baldwin Locomotive
Works. just back from sojourn
In Europe OF two months. returns
with tho conclusion that Europe's
pressing demand at present Ia work.
lie made close examination OF gem
eral business conditions. and while
he noted Improvement over conditions
which prevailed two years ago when
he was overseas. he sees the demand
for still further Improvement.
The situation is improving rapidly
over two years ago. but 25 per cent of
the world is still idle" said Mr.. vau-
CLAIM. This Is principally due to scar
city OF money. lack OF confidence, and
the adjustment Of government regula-
tons OF the rs per cent OF the world
that is busy. actually only s7h per
cent is producing. as the rs per cent
Is only on half time.
The difficulty France and England
are having in keeping men busy 4. due
TO German competition. due to the low
value OF the mark and wages in Ger
many. German labor. when put on the
American standard, II only paid about
one-tenth OF what Is paid In the
United States, and one-fifth Of what is
paid in England. Belgium and other
European countries. A good mechanic
I'm Germany can earn 100 marks a
day. which in our money Is about
fifty cents.
This condition Will exist as long as
the German mark Is kept at its pres
ent value. When the value of the
work increases Germany will find It
difficult TO compete in the world mar
kets. The railroad strike in Ger
many is not particularly important,
nor is It surprising. due to the low
rate OF compensation.
THE English labor situation is bad
from two points OF view, the high cost
of labor and materials and the govern
ment gold situation which supports
the unemployed. Before this situa-
ton improves II Will be necessary for
the English plants TO operate on a
basis profitable for them. The op-
Grafton Of the plants today in Eng
land is at loss and not at q profit
While not highly encouraging. the
labor and business situation in Eu-
rope, as detailed by this capable ex.
pert. is not altogether depressing
That we are greatly better OF in ou,
own country is not certain, and a de.
tailed comparison OF conditions a.
home and abroad might prove Il.
Illuminating.
There is no doubt, however, thai
not only Europe, but the entire world
needs work and plenty of IT. worl
is not only essential to general pros
perity. but is in a great measure &
panacea for industrial troubles ant
unrest. It Is only when all the peopl,
can find profitable employment tha
country may be set down as IL
thoroughly good condition
What is needed therefore, in Iegls
lation az in all other fields of effor,
is a policy that Will lead to a resump
ton of industry. the world over
and especially in our country. Thi
sounds tr1te, 1t is true, but the state
men ia not open to dispute.

WHAT WAS SAID.

Editor Every Evening: Apropos OF
An editorial In last nights Every
Evening. may / submit the following.
The resolution quoted by the city
committee OF the American Legion did
not state, nor contemplate censure OF
a member Of the Legion who was OPP
posed to adjusted compensation.
I, said that. Whereas. the posts OF
the Legion IN Wilmington had gone on
record repeatedly. by unanimous vote
OF the members present as favoring
the principle Of adjusted compensation,
and, particularly. the fve-fold COM
pensation plan at present before Con-
gress; therefore. be II resolved that
no man can (rightfully) speak for the
American Legion, or ought to speak
as an American Legion man. in op-
position to adjusted compensation"
May / ask further, If you deem 1t
strange, or Unfair. on the part of an
organization that has 40 gone on rec
ord. repeatedly. to expect OF its MEM
bers. in public, at least. not 20 give ex-
preston 70 views not conscnant with
the declared policy OF their organiza-
ton?
is 1t a new thing IN the world that
organizations. professedly loyal and
high principlei, should expect Their
members to have their differences that
involve matters OF policy and prin-
ciple within their organization rooms
and not In public
| Mr.. Editor. we are in the thick ot
ngflt for a cause which 10 us seems
| just and fair. We are trying to bt
fair; and we are trying NOT to permi
our fight 70 degenerate to the leve
of personalities and mud-slinging. VII
you bear with us If we take exception
to an editorial IN your paper which, W
think, does not fairly represent ou
position?

PRESIDENT HARDING INTERCEDES
WITH STATE GOVERNOR TO SAVE
LIFE OF RUSSIAN ALIENS DOG

HARRISBURG, Pa, July l. = The
president of the United States and
Mrs. Harding and Governor Sproul of
Pennsylvania, It became known today
interceded for the life of a dog that
was supposed to have been condemned
to death at Lansdale, Pa, because it
was owned by an alien, contrary to
Pennsylvania laws. The dogs life
had been saved, and the alien-Jacob
Silverman, farmer, fined $25, before
the presidential appeal reached JUS
tice of the Peace Howard Boorse. The
alien has taken an appeal from the
fine and "Dick" Silvermany part st.
BERNARD and part mastiff, is in the
care of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals.
The president, in his appeal to the
governor, said:
IL think you will have to count this
letter as a personal one, rather THAI
an official communication. write
it at the suggestion of Mrs. Harding,
though | am happy to d Oso, because
of the appeal which has greatly stir
red her. touches me no less forcibly.
Il enclose you the anonymous let
ter and the newspaper clippings which
came to Mrs. Harding. If the story
is correct, a Russian immigrant has a
faithful dog which he loves and be-
cause his possession of the dog il
some way conflicts with the state law

nomination for United States senator
in possession of Lynn ]. Frazier, re-
called Non Partisan League governor,
and Governor r. A. Nestos, Independ-
ent renominated, the Republican NOM
inee for governor. leaguers and Inde-
pendents were making claims tonight
for other state nominations.
Independents claimed that the IA
521 lead Of Governor Nestos would
sweep all their candidates into the
Republican nominations with the pos
sfble expectation of the candidates for
state auditor and commissioner of in
surance. Leaguers claimed in addi-

for three railroad commissioners as
well and better than an even break
for attorney general and commission.

Independents were also claiming
that ]. F. T. O'Connor, candidate for

Surely there must be some way to

IF it came within my executive au-
thority, would gladly grant pardon
to the convicted animal. ] suppose
there is good and ample reason for a
statute which makes this dog an un-
lawful possession, but have an abid-

dog to the extent that he will grieve
for him, has in him the qualities
which will make him a loyal citizen.
Mrs. Harding and are both pleas
ed to appeal for some form of elem
ency in this case, and hope this note
is not too late to enable us to add our
appeal in behalf of both Silverman
and his good dog.
Governor Sproul Immediately wired
the justice of the peace and also tel
egraphed the president, assuring him
that Dick would be reprieved.
The dog had been given to Silver
man and its illegal ownership was dis
covered by a game warden. Silver
mans love for his dog and the respect
in which his neighbors held him
brought many persons to the hearing
in Lansdale last night on the report
that the dog had been condemned to
death. Today, Justice Boorse said he
had never ordered the dog killed, al

Many Receive Minor Cuts
and Bruises; Impossible to
Get Relief Trains Thru
AUTOS RESCUE INJURED
Tracks on Either Side of
Stalled Train Are Washed
Out; Bridge Weakened

PUEBLO, Colo, July 1.-Nine per
sons were seriously hurt and several
others sustained minor cuts and
bruises when Missouri Pacific passen-
ger train No. IL, which left Pueblo
at 5 O'Clock this afternoon was caught
in a cloudburst 35 miles east of here
about o'clock. Six coaches turned
over. into the ditch. The rear Pull
man remained upright. The engine
and baggage car are safe. Track on
both sides of the stalled train is wash
ed out making it impossible to get
relief trains to the scene. Automo-
biles from Fowler, ten miles distant,
are conveying some Of the injured to
Fowler and also some of the passen-
gers who desire to return to Pueblo
or continue their journey over the
Santa Fe railroad.
The cloudburst weakened the bridge
over the Bob Greek ditch. Engineer
John H. Westfall did not sense the
danger until his engine got onto the
bridge. He tried to pull the entire
train over the danger but the last
seven coaches broke away from the
baggage car and six of the coaches
turned over into the ditch. The flood
water was pouring down upon the
crippled train and much confusion
reigned for a time. The passengers
scrambled out of the broken windows
to places of safety on top of the over
turned coaches. Those unable to as
sist themselves were helped by the
more fortunate
An incomplete list of the injured
follows:

The fact that more persons were not
