sTAND1N0 AGArNsr JUSTICE.

When it comes to the matter of ad- jtnsting labor disputes there Is great faith placed by the public in general in arbitration Through the submission of the facts in the case to impartial judges there is good reason to bAlieve that jus tice will be done, and it is justice that is bound to be the aim in making ad- justments whether it concerns wages or wora1n7 conditions.
 For that reason it is impossible to fe. gard the attitude of John L. LesVis Of the miners undon other than grossly ufs- warranted whan he declares that he is everlastingly opposed to arbitration, and because of that attitude Is today prevent ing the production Of coal for which the people of the country are looking for the preventing Of suffering during. tho coming year.

 Under the proposed plan the miners W0uQ WeceIVc lQS wages B1ldf <8foy 8Ot before the strike for the remainder of the coal year ore until next Aprh after which time the conditions and wages would be left to arbitration.
 It doesn't help the position of the miners when Aheir leader will have nefhing to do wdth arbitration, It doesn't look as If they were willing te have the facts brought out into the light. Just as long as they can thFot- tie nhe coal consumers they appear to be satisfied and they are neither will ing to put their cards on the table nol to aid in getting the situation surround the operators there when arbitration k So co1dly turned down.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Howard G. Kelley, who has resigned the presidency of the Grand Trunk Railway, Is native of the United States who came into high position in the Canadian railway world, after q service beginning. in his case, as far back as 1881, on the Northern Pacific road. He was born in Philadelphia in 1858, edu- cated in the PoIytechnical college of that city. and then struck out for the north. From 1884 to 1887 he was su- perintendent of the Northern Pacifc's mines in Montana. Later he was sta- tioned in Minneapolis and St. Louis. and was busy acquiring experience and rep utation that led, in 1907, to his being made chief engineer of the Grand Trunk Railway in Canada. Four years later he became vice president, and in 1917 he came into the office of president, on the retirement of E. J. Chamberlain Mir. Kelley stands high in the engineering profession, and has been honored with the presidency of the Canadian national organization.

 This is of courSe a situation which cnght not to prevail and deals with uDAdit1ons which he is justified in bring ing to Igaht- This country fas of course greatly impressed it's merchant marine It ds by that means doing bus mess which formerly went to foreign ships and it ts easy to understand that n1ch- a removal of business Is eansing An1nedent resentmsht so that when the 0pportun1tE presents itself American E0edS are made to suffer. Nothing Is H11e important than that American Epods should be delivered at their des- .Hns4ion in proper condition. Otherwise roW ,proincts are not going to get fa- vaEshle cpnsideratton, and even though Aneulcan goods might be preferred, if Ci1sye scarmot be obtained in decent shape trade ia going to turn In other direc- tiqins,
 Wnen Secretary Denbv deaEs with such . matter and makes public charges h, Whdch exoneranhon as given only to the Ja psnese there is reason to presume thGt he knows what he is talking about. Soch ckaFges are not warranted by iso- lated caHes and such are ont what he as. tNppo Ssd to refer to.

 Since that pact of decade and g half ago there has been an attempt at political union that failed, and the de- sire to return to the plan of 1907 would indicate that it was regarded as the sanest proposition- Three out of th$ five republics joining in this latest move does not insure the other two coming in. Just what Costa Rica and Guate- mala will do is largely a matter of guesswork in view of the conditions which exist in Central America and the inability to estabash relations between the republics which will be for their general good and the peace of that re- zion. Persistent efforts, however. may yet result in Sreceas.
