SALVATION ARMY
LASSES' SKIRTS TO
BELONGER, ORDER

CHICAGO, Jan. 30.-The skirts
of Salvation Army lassies must not
be more than seven inches above the
street level, according to an order
issued here today by Commissioners
William Peart, leader of the organi-
cation in fifteen midwest states.
"A few years ago we were trying to
persuade our women to wear them
shorter, {" said Commissioner Peart in
commenting upon the order. "The
skirt that trails in the dirt, gathering
germs is a menace to its wearer's
health; but the skirt that flaps around
the knees is pretty much of mem
ace to the modesty of the woman who
weaIs it. The skirt is about the only
thing which doesn't appear to be
coming Gown these days and back
to normalcy drive on the too-short
dress viii dc a lot to protect the
morals of the rising generation"
Commissioner Peart stated that the
order would affect every Salvation
Army member in N countries and
colonies where the organization oper-
ates, with the possible exception of
China and japan, where most of the
women wear trousers.

YOU AND |
KNOW THE FARMERS ARE
RIGHT AND THAT VALUE,
NOT VOLUME, COUNTS.

FARMERS in the corn belt last
year received less than five cents
an hour for their labor and the
labor Of their wives and children,
claims a speaker at the national ag-
ricultural conference.
He says farmers are asking why
they have to pay 400 bushels of corn
for wagon they used to buy for $50
bushels?
"Why must they pay $50 bushels
Of corn for gangplow which for
merly cost 125 bushels?
"Or $50 busnels Tor a suit of
clothes which formerly cost so
bushels, or 33 bushels for shoes that
formerly cost nine bushels?"
Corn farmer, hit 5ardest by de-
preston, has put his thinking cap
on. He sees this truth:
The dollar lies, as a common met
sure of values. What you can buy
with your money, not how much you
get, is what really counts. The short
cut to economic truth is to think in
terms of commodities instead of
fluctuating dollars.

PUTS INTERESTS
OF PUBLIC FIRST
Hangar Says Both Railroads And
Employees Owe Service
Above All

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.--The only
practicable, effective an6 jast method
that the government can set up for
the adjustment Of railroad labor
controversies is adjudication by a
competent tribunal, whose decisions
shall be enforceable by suitable. pen
alties, Ben w. Hooper, public menl-
Der of the United States Railroad La
bor Board, told the Civic Federation
in an address here today.
This was added by Mr.. Hooper to
his other five propositions looking to-
ward equitable settlement of rail-
road disputes. These were:
THAT efficient and uninterrupted
transportation is Indispensable to the
public welfare.
That the carriers and their en-
ployees Jointly owe such transporta-
ton. to the public.
''That the federal government has
the right, as matter of contract,
public policy and police power, and
owes to the people the duty to insure
such transportation.
THAT the governments duty and
the peoples rights are violated by
permitting railroad labor controver-
sizes to be settled by economic war
fare.
"That, if railway employees are de-
prived, for the promotion,of the COM
mon good of the legal right to strike,
some other remedy of equal or supe-
rior efficacy must be provided"
Speaking in general terms, only
two plans have ever been devised for
the settlement of railway labor dis
putes," continued Mr.. Hooper.
"These are: BY economic war-the
strike and by adjudication. pur-
posely omit mention of such expedi-
ents as mediation, voluntary arbitra-
ton, ETC., in their varying forms. The
difference between the strike and
adjudication is the difference be
tween force and law.
Just now, the nations are endeav-
oring at Washington to curtail the
ancient doctrine of the supremacy Of
might, and | believe that henceforth
this spirit will likewise be potent in
composing some of our domestic
troubles.
II am friendly to the aspirations
of laboring men for the betterment
of their condition, and am firm be-
lever in their right to organize and
to function as organizations. can
not, however, sympathize with the
idea that the right of the railway
employees to strike ontweighs the
right of the men, women and children
of this nation to be protected against
the disastrous results of railway
strikes. This simply means that some
remedy other than the strike should
be found for obtaining justice for
the railway worker, without, at the
same time, destroying the public.
THE question remains, could the
railway employees get justice under
any such system? Their suspicion Of

"Knickers," worn by women, have
become common in the east, espe-

Will women eventually discard
dresses and wear trousers? Don't

stranger changes. Men used to wear
long dresses, knee skirts, powdered
wigs, lace cuffs and shoes two feet

The prohibition officer did not

supposed to be liquor standing on
the bar. Upon the arrival Of Off

LONDON, Sept. 23.-(By The AS
sociated Press)-The policy of Great
Britain in the Near East Is to estab-
lish the freedom Of the Dardanellas
under the supervision of the League
of Nations, declared Prime Minis
ter Lloyd George in a statement at
a conference with the newspaper
men this afternoon.
Mr.. Lloyd George said that what
ever step the government had taken
to strengthen the military and nav
al forces in the Dardanelles and the
Bosphorus had been dictated by two
supreme considerations: First, "our
anxiety as to the freedom of the seas
between the Mediterranean and the
Black Sea; and. second, to prevent
this exceptionally prodigal war from
spr eading into Europe"
The prime minister declared he
would like to make this clear that
any action that had been taken had
nothing to do with he merits or de-
merits of the case under dispute be-
tween Greece and the Turks.
The British government said the
premier had been impartial as be-
tween the Greeks and the Turks. He
pointed out that a few weeks ago,
the Greeks threatened to march on
Constantinople ad at that time Gen :
eral Harrington, the British General
in chief in command at CONSTANT
nople, had warned the Greeks ''ln
as gentle terms as the warning now
given to Mustapha Kemal Pasha.
In dealing with the question OF
the freedom of the straits. Mr..
Lloyd George said that what had
happened in the late war demon
strated how vital was the freedom
Of these narrow seas, to the protec-
ton of commerce and "to human
ity in it's broadest aspect"
The closing Of the straits by Tur-
key during the late war, he declar-
ed, was responsible for the disaster
"of one of our strongest allies and
the defeat of Roumania, and pro-
longed the war by at least two
years"
In pointing out Great Britain's
impartiality, as shown by her
warning to the Greeks Mr.. Lloyd
George added:

of peace. The same motive Is In
