does he believe in stopping work for
days and weeks on Important Jobs
while some detail Of Jurisdiction Is
being considered.
His salary is more than that of Sam
uel Gompers, the president of the
American Federation Of Labor, whose
stipend is now $4,000 a year. 1t was
for long period $500. and before
that 1t had been advanced from 5000
shortly before the European war. The
veteran leader accepted this amount
under protest, saying that it was more
than he needed to live on, and that
the fact 1t had been raised to so large
an amount might be used against or
ganized labor.
So far nobody has used 1t very
much, for the consensus is that, con-
sidering the duties, Mr.. Gompers earns
that much and probably great deal
more. For practically forty consecu-
tive times this veteran leader has been
chosen for high post In the organiza-
tion against all comers. Now nearing
the age Of three score and ten he is
still considered at the height Of his
powers as an executive.
Gompers' Long Hours.
Judged on the basis Of the number
of hours he works day Mr.. Gompers
Is the equivalent Of several men. He
carries heavy burden at the Offices
of the federation, which. by the way,
owns Its building and has an elaborate
organization to maintain. AS the grand
supervisor of the federation he directs
its policies and also makes frequent
journeys throughout the country. As
q speaker on public occasions he is
heard often In cities far from Wash
ington. He Is also the editor Of the
American Federationlst, the official
organ of the federation, as we'll as a
frequent contributor to magazines.
The salary of the organizer of the
American Federation Of Labor, who
makes his headquarters in New York
city. Is understood to be $4,500 year
and travelling expenses.

ON THE LEVEL

The way to reach the man who tolls
Amid the dinsy workings;
ls not by strategems and spoils,
Or oily smiles and smirkings.
You give him model homes and such,
Or clubs in which to revel,
1t isn't coddling that he likes,
Or lordly condeseension.
Such methods will not stop his strikes
Or Danish all contention,
You must be fair and square and just,
A man among your brothers,
Before old doubtings turn to trust
Or ancient hatred smothers.
Whatever motive yours may be.
In time he's sure to find it;
He looks through every deed to see
The spirit that's behind il.
And though he may misunderstand,
Repei, at first, and doubt you.
He'll warmly grasp the proHered hand
When he is sure about you.

The miners, deep below them,
Are slow Of faith and hard of head,
You've simply got to show them;
And prove your varied. aims. and ends

done. But the old driver knows that
II harm has been done the place to look
for 1t is In the inside and that any

on the inside ply first.
inside PLY Shorter.
Normally the inside ply is shorter
than the rest and each ply Is shorter
than any of the others which are To-
Gated outside of it. This is because 1t
is on the inside Of the curvature Of the
tire. Now II the tire is suddenly COM
pressed at some point to considerable
extent, such as shown in the lllustra-
ton. the relative position of the plies
is reversed: that is, the ouside ply
becomes, at this particular point, the
inside ply as regards the curvature and
the inside ply becomes the outside ply
as regards curvature.
II 1t should happen, as 1t often does,
that only one or two inner plies are
broken, there will not be any signs Of
the injury on the outside until con-
siderable time afterward. This Is be-
cause the other plies still unbroken will
continue to hold against the air pres
sure even though they will be under
excessive strain. But continued flex-
Ing will eventually break them also.
and the result may be blowout, which
may occur at any time, even on per-
fectly smooth pavement.
Other Effects.
Another effect of break in one or
two inner plies may be that from con-
tinued bending the broken edges Of the
fabric rub a hole In the inner tube at
that point. Sometimes the break is so
pronounced. especially In fabric tire,
that the air pressure forces the inner
tube into the break, and as this is con-
tlnually closing and opening. as the
tire rolls, the action is like pair of
pinchers and cuts the tube.
II the tube Is chafed through or cut
after bruise, such as described, the
air will pass directly through the car
cass and force the rubber side cover

the user generally terms It blowout
and as a matter Of fact 1t Is; but. con
trary to the opinion often held, 1t is
seldom the result of a defect in manu-
facture. 1t can generally be traced to
an injury sustained some time prior
to the final breaking down of the tire,

LABOR LEADERS
IN FRONT RANK
OF EXECUTIVES
In General Ability and the Power
for Organization, They Are
Recognized as Having Few
Superiors in the World Of
Business.

Eighteen thousand dollars a year
for a labor leader and a contract for
life shows that some unions are pay
ing as big salaries to their executives
as do the large business interests.
Salaries Of from $1,000 to $4,000 are
by no means infrequent, writes John
W. Harrington In the New York Sun.
The head Of the Dockbuilders' union,
for instance, whose compensation is
$500 a month, is the highest paid
Tabor representative In New York city
and probably In the country At least
no leader Of the working classes has
come forth so far to admit that he is
getting more. and search of the
archives Of the unions fails to reveal
anything like SO huge an honorarium.
Although this appears to be the top
notch In the way Of salaries the dock
builders In the district from Philadel-
phia to Boston, including those of New
York city and neighborhood, believe
that they are getting the worth OF
their money, and insisted on his having
that amount, although like Caesar, he
several times declined the honor.
Headquarters UpIIfted.
Once labor headquarters was a
dark and dingy place, reeking Of stale
pipes and of staier beer fumes. Its
floors were caked with CRIME and its
walls were dirty and dingy. Now the
chief officer Of the dockbuilders has q
bright and airy office and does busi-
ness In an atmosphere of good desks,
fle cases and high power business ef-
ficlency. Clerks, stenographers and
cashiers are under his eye. and every
where are all the devices which make
for attending to large affairs. If one
were suddenly translated to his pres
ence one would think that he was
talking to the manager of one of the
large corporations or bank president.
He works from 16 to 1s hours day
and says he often works 90 Any one
seeing him cheerfully violating the
eight-hour law may well realize that
any interest to which he might devote
himself. for he transacts business like

of the DOckbuilders' union, which Is

They are giving, therefore, less than
one days work year to the salary Of
their representative. In return for
this he keeps things running smoothly,
and sees that work is as regular and
steady as possible and gels what they
