JUST ONE REMEDY

Mr. Harding's address to Congress is virtual adj
mission of the impotence of our government as organ
lied at present. to deal with nationwide strike situa-
ton 1t is true he promises, his duty, to employ all
the powers Of the government to end the strike and
cure the rights of all parties, but he indicates pre-
scrbed line Of procedure by which this be legally
done.
The laws now on the statute books, which he declares
sufficient if properly enforced apply only incidentally to
labor disturbances 1t is only by distortng its original
purpose, and adopting exceedingly round about
course that the statute against interfering with interstate
commerce, for instance, be used
What the country needs is law dealing directly with
labor disputes and a tribunal to enforce that lava
tribunal having complete jurisdiction both emp Oyers
and employees as well as all questions directly connected
with wage adjustments. The present mpotent and al
most comca railroad labor board created by the Esch
Cummns ao is valuable only public recognition of
the need of genuine court.
Objections to such court come from both sides.
Labor leaders distrust jud ges, and it must be
fessed, not without some justification, as, in in
Stances very small statutes have been made to
much territory in the effort to shut off strikes. Employ
ers also dsrust such courts, because they likely to
be politically controlled and might do much injury by
fixing too high wages But with all its imperfecons 1t
is the only remedy that really applies to the disease.
Strikes are forms of warfare. Their only ustifca-
ton in any case is the absence of legal of securing
what the workers consider tFer rights. Given court
in which labor. organized norganzed, set up its
claims and demands and have them passed upon by
competent judges in the selection of which labor should
have an equal voice. and all for strikes at
once
Complete harmony between workers and employers is
an "irridescent dream. Its approach
about by the public recognition of the rights of BOTH and
then the only question for h public to decide is wheth
er these rights shall be ID by the primitive means

DOG DAYS ARE ENDED

Up in the North co"7ry that period extending from
August to August TO- rel i've, is known the dog
day period The reason MS designation is thai the
weather during these days supposed be the warmest
of the entire summer and for that reason there
danger than any other time from rabies, the heat con
trbutng to increase the numbeNof mad dogs affected by
weather conditions. A study of weather reports this
August will bear out the theory because the figures
veal the usual high temperatures prevailing in most OF
the northern cities When government weather figures
show from 70 10 "a degrees in Chicago, may well
believe there is discomfort in store for people who live
there Here in Florida have the cooling breezes and

The Florida State Baseball League has enjoyed

largest cities has been very weak financially although
every team in the league regardless of their standing

The Florida State League games are as clean and as
good an exhibition of the national pastime as played
by any other baseball organization of similar class
anywhere in the country. The state needs such an
organization in the interest of clean amusements Hard

hesitate taking his wife children to OF the
state league games Indeed, there have been many
games played in the various cities in the circuit when
almost as many feminine fans in the grandstand

However backward the city of Tallahassee may have

certainly be given credit for taking the lead in
the city manager form of government. Since it was
adopted here in many other cities both in and out
of the state have been Influenced largely by the sue
cess Tallahassee has made and have adopted the same
Right recently Lakeland voted on the question and
adopted the city manager manager plan. Those who
had charge the campaign frankly admit that the sue
cess of the government in Tallahassee given in the
second annual report of city Manager Greer caused
them to larry the election in that city.
More recently Clearwater has adopted the same plan
and to Tallahassee and the influence of the report
of her city manager obtained from the report, is
given credit the majority vote by which they adept
ed the measure Word comes direct from Clearwater
that credit is given Tallahassee for the OF the
election.
We would suggest the south Florida papers in re-

GGSSU
WHAT DO THEY WANT

The Literary Digests poll of prohibition sentiment,
which has aow reached total of 708,805 ballots rep
resenng every state, may be accepted fairly repre-
sentative Of American sentiment 1t shows II 1854 for
strict enforcement. 290l72 for modification of the
Volstead law to permit light wines and beers, and
1860 for repeal of the prohibition amendment
it is easy enough to understand the position Of those
favorng enforcement as she written and those fav
oring repeal; but rather hard to comprehend the attitude
of those favorng the continuation of drastic constu
tonal provision against alcoholic beverages and at the
same time statute permitting the Of such beverages.
Perhaps the best explanation IS that they want prohibition
for the other fellow but do rot think they need it for
themselves.
They want the amendment for the clearing of their
consciences but they also want light wines and beer
for their stomach's sake and occasional n6rmities.

for the cause of good English than any other agency in

The Attire Of Women Lawyers

ject Of lively dshate1;the ineresse in
the number Of Nanep siawyers having
brought the un&stpp forward,
Some of 'the s3pyars adyoczbed a
regulation ofpgrA and others opposed
it. In South C3rqlina the custom, or
rule, long redbiied shat lawyers in
court wear black coats. Emphasis
was not placed supon the cut Of the
coats and the trousers might be of
any color. Our Judges always have
worn black gowns and IL, other states
this habit has been growing. In
dubitably the gowns and the coats
have contributed TO the dignity and
solemnity of the tribunals.
One is not sure that women lawyers
should be compelled to WEAR a legal
uniform. One dbes not like to think
of young lady cqnnselor of % or %
as "bigwig." Not even our lawyers
of sterrer stuff wear wigs, as in Eng
land.
We set it down that a. girlish law
yer should be encouraged to look as
pretty as she can din court and left
to use all the artifices at her COM
mand to win the hearts of the jury
men and the Judge.
Portia, however, wore a gown and
never had flapper more winning
ways. The subject is charming for
debate. Millions of words can be said
on either side Of it. Our decision is
in favor of the women lawyers They
are the best Judges in the rworld-of
what to wear.
Courts of law are dull and drab. If

Poor Cotton Crop
To Crowd Schools

Florence, Aug. 16.-The poor cot
ton crop this year is going to mean
largely increased enrolment of pu-
pills in the Florence county public
schools, says A. H. Gasque, superin-
tendent of education, who is making
arrangements now for the coming
term. Children will not be needed
at home to pick cotton because there
is not much of a crop, and conse-
quently they can go to school, he
says.
Preparations are about complete for
the opening of the coming term, says
the superintendent. Nearly all the
schools have been supplied with teach
ers for the term and there is large
supply available for all schools which
yet need teachers. The earliest of
the schools win open about Septem-
ber Is and the latest Of them will be
open by October Is.
Many Of the school districts are
doing great deal of building this
year in preparation for the coming
terms. Timmonsville is erecting a
$4,000 white high school building and
also very substantial building for
the colored children. Bethel school
is adding another story to it's school,
whic will have an increased capacity
of 100 per cent. Hannah is making a
similar increase incher school facili-
ties. The negroes in THE Vox dis
trict are erecting a new five-room
school building for their children.
Superintendent Gasque is looking
for very splendid session in the
Florence county school system this
year.
