at work. Cnwillingness by the op-
posing sides to confer Is disastrous.
So long as men who differ refuse
to speak, and pass EACH other on
the street they cannot settle their
differences. Only through mutual
conference and discussion can the
breach between them be closed.
The best way to settle labor
difficulties is TO urge and force.
il necessary, employers and employees
to get together.
II think the railroad crisis clear.
ly demonstrates the failure Of leg

tie disputes between employers and

Incites Distrust. -
II believe the setting up Of such
a tribunal tends to shift the antag.
onism OF the employe toward the
employer from the employer to the
Government II that goes on the
laboring classes, thinking injustices
have been done them. and finding
themselves unable TO secure the re.
dress they demand, will b.ame the
Government, and become antago-
nistic to 1t.
I'VE must bear in mind that
when labor strikes II is usually
roicing an economic protest. When
labor is given the impression that
the instrumentalities Of the Gov.
ernment are being used against it
and are taking Sides with the en-
ployer, the protest is likely to be.
come political as vel as economic.

ON THROUGHOUT LONDON

LONDON. July 20.-A male dress
reform is in full swing in London.
Sticklers for correct dress are now
striving to displace dinner jackets
for evening wear and insist upon

What with the Londoner's predi'
lection for silk hated business attire,
and frock-coated afternoon attire,
and correct river. dress. and grey
topper racing garb. and plus four
golfing outfits. II looks like dire days
for those who haven't wardrobe.
American male visitors to London,
however, are shocking the natives
and demonstrating their freedom
from the slavery of clothes by wear

STOCK MARKETS
Of WORLD SHAKEN
BY A WAR SCARE:

The stock markets Of the world
were shaken today BY a war scare.
On the New York Stock Exchange
prices broke! violently on an cxccp-
tionally heavy. volume Of trading,
with many OF the speculative leaders
showing declinoe of from throo TO
more than six, points. ... ,.,'
The foreign exchange markets wnra
upset, with exchange on London
showing a loss of more than two cents
to the pound. ...'
The grain markets, which invariably
are favorably affected by war scares,
were conspicuously stronS, with wheat
at one time showing an advance of
6 cents a bushcE
Early cables told Of a slump in the
London Market, OF extreme weakness
in the Paris Bourse, and coincdent
with the opening OF the New York
Stock Exchange the Montreal Market
showed losses which ran to as much as
points and more.
On the local exchange securities
were dumped on the market in
manner which at times betokened lit
tie regard for values. Selling was
progressively urgent, with largest
losses being registered in the last
hour of business.
While real liquidation was much in
evidence, professional operators who

to from three to six points.
Railroad, industrial. mining and oil
shares were alike affected. All went
