Hot Weather
 Shoes

Much of the discomfort of a hot day is the result of tight clothing and footwear. You may not real ize it, but binding, stiff-soled shoes are often the "final straw' that brings about serious consequences when the heat has lowered your en- durance.
 If the weather "slows you up" change to the Cantilever Shoe, recommended by physicians and specialists for comfort and health. It has a FLEXIBLE shank that bends with every step. The muscles move freely. The blood flows healthfully. The arches grow strong. The whole system re- joices in this new freedom with which you walk.

While the penalty which the judge
can inflict BY direct sentence for q
violation s.of his code Is fine or i'm
prisonment. limited only by his dis
erection; capita punishment may be
inflicted by indirection. All that
seems to be necessary: to this end is
to issue a writ to the marshal or
sheriff commanding him to prevent
a violation of the judges code, and
then the men with injunction nooses
around their necks may be quickly
dispatched If they attempt to march
across this Injunction deadline. It
is said the judge does not punish
for a, violation Of the statutory Of
fense,e but only for q violation Of his
order prohibiting the commission Of

If the only indictment against the

this should be sufficient in itself to
warrant the prompt action of Con-

equity court can summon wage earn
ers before it. find them, guilty and
sentence them to prison without q
trial by jury, for. as Judge Caldwell
said further on: -
Jury and injunction are terms
which cancel EACH other.
I'm proportion as the injunction is
expanded, the right Of trial by jury
is restricted. And this result is not
mere incident to the use of the
writ. in many cases its real purpose
is to deprive a party Of the right of

One of the strongest indictments

he said: -.

Formerly it was used to conserve

is on as a result Of the Presidents
executive order which went into ef-
feet january 1, 1922, removing some
Of the principal perQuisites extended
to Americans as compensation for
the disadvantages of tropical exist
ence.
In January, 81 men resigned; in
February, IS; in, March, 81. In view
Of the unemployment in the United
States, these designations are stgnifi-
cant. These Americans are highly
skilled men. During the first three

the operation and maintenance de-
partments, which are largely 4ngin-
eering in character; IL from the
supply department. and 80 from
technical posts in the Panama rail-
road. -.
In view of the elimination OF such
perquisites as quarters. light, fuel
and sanitation, the Canal Commits
sion is experiencing great difficulty
in replacing skilled American work.
men. The inevitable result will be
the manning Of the Panama Canal
by inferior personnel.
The policy Of the administration
will not result in any financial gain
to the government. The assessment
on the employees of the cost to the
government Of quarters. light, fuel
and sanitation is an unjust exploita-
ton in view of the principles orig
inalfy established by Congressional
action, but the loss to the. govern
ment in increasing labor turnover
will wipe out any gain. It is con-
servatively' estimated that the cost
of replacing a workman I'M the Canal
Zone, Including, his transportation,
exceeds $500. The cost Of training
such a man; for his Job on the Pana-
ma Canal is not known, but the cost
Of. training in we'll managed shops
in the United States is about $500.
It is estimated that the government
policy will result in the resignation
Of a thousand men during 1922,
which would bring the cost of these
designations to the government. to.
100000, figuring the cost at $500
per man.
Discrimination against American
workmen is apparently a definite
policy. During the first three
months Of 1922 there has been a net
reduction in the American person;
mel Of 80 and an increase of British
colored workmen Of 249. This ratio
tends to confirm the current trop-
ical estimate that an American
skilled workman is worth three COL
ored tropical workmen..
Determinations in fsvor of the
alien negro workman and the fact
that they are not charged for light,
fuel and sanitation and are charged
40 per cent less rent than American
workmen, slso proves that the pol
icy OF the administrator: is to drive
the skilled k-paercan Workmen out Of
