American Labor
Must Change Tactics
Britisher Says
Continued from Page ~

American workers must suit their
action to conditions with which they
are surrounded and to what they
find is the dominant physiology
among American workers.
We are not advising British labor,
because we are convinced that Brit
ish labor is much more competent
to shape its own course than any
adviser unfamiliar with condit
surrounding it. We have for British
labor every good wish.
When it comes to shaping the
course and determining the policies
of American labor, whether indus.
trial or political, all we can say to-
Mr.. Macdonald is that we wish him
well in England, but so far as our.
affairs are concerned, we trust he
will confine his advice to England.
We are convinced that the course
of<American labor has been, and is
the right course.
The report of the non-partisan po-
lltlcai campaign committee OF the
American Federation of Labor on
the recent political campaign shows
an achievement with which we chal-
lenge comparison. The policies OF d
American labor as applied to Amer
lea have proven their correctness
and their effectiveness beyond ques-
ton. Working in accord with the
farmers of our country, labor has
broken down the reactionary control
Of our political life and captured the
control of congress in the cause of /
progress. Every outstanding reacl
.ionary leader has been retired, with
one senatorial exception. l know 4
If no political achievement in anyl
country that surpasses the accom-
'lishment OF American labor in the

It is a long time since Abraham Lin coln died. but his name and deeds have not been forgotten and they would have been no chance of it had there been no memorial erected for him at Washing ton. Put it is customary for this cmn- try to display it's reverence for it's great men and it was only natural that there should be a fitting monument erected to his memory.
 That has now been done and the com pleted memorial on the banks of the po- tomae will remain with the centuries as another of the shrines for the patriotic and those true Americans who cannot fail to be inspired by the remarkable career of the countrys great leader.
 Washington has many objects of at traction but none is going to receive more attention in the future than this conspicuous memorial containing the huge likeness in marble of the great emancipator. Beautifully located on the banks of the Potomac this tribute of the nation to Lincoln has it's place in the fitness of things even though such a man built his own monument as he lived.
 This memorial differs in form from those which have been erected for other great national figures, but 1t is of hand some design and an impressive struc- ture. substantial without being too or nate. Quite fitting was it also that the unveiling of this national tribute should be fixed for the day when the country memorializes its heroic dead.

CANADA CALLS A HALT.

What seems to be a solar plexus blow to the effort for the St. Lawrence canal development. in which ths country would participate with Canada. has been dealt by the decision of the Canadian premier that there will be no treaty con corning it negotiated this year.
 There have been estimates made but no one knows what it will cost to com plete the project. Indications are that the figures mentioned are but a part of what will be required if the task is ever undertaken. Should the preliminary work be completed 1t would not provide for the service which the middle west section of this country is seeking.
 Sentiment in the states about the lake region is strong for such an outlet to the sea and strong efforts have \been made to get the necessary appropria tion in this country to start it.
 Before such an international under taking can be set on foot, even should 1t be possible to get the necessary aD- propriation under present day cond:- tions and the prevalent demand for economy at Washington, there must be an international understanding reached
  Efforts in that direction were made when 1t was declared that this country was ready to engage in such negotia- tions. Word that comes from Canada to the effect that nothing of the kind can be done this year must serve as a wet blanket to the idea. It will disap- point many, even as Canada has disap- pointed ar ether times, but it vii permit of 'ongel consideration of the pro2os.- tion from all angles, including ths cost and the results that can be expected as well as enc direction of due attention it the facilities that are already available within the boundaries of this country
 Perhaps Canada feais the need of di- recting a little more thought to the pro- ject before devoting So many millions to 1t, but it would clearly be a mistake to engage in such an undertaking without complete understanding between na- tions.

adding that protectorate to the Trans vaal and Rhodesia hinterland which already are tapped by coastal railway running through Portuguese East Af- rica, which is the official designation of Mozambique.
 Despite its railways and the eco- homie development they will bring, Mozambique is likely to retain for q long time it's local color; tapped by romantic fiction writers until the very word is synonym for the exotic and mysterious. Strangely enough the land of man eating lions and the worlds most pestiferous ants provides dainty Miss America with music for her dancing, ivory for her fan, and atmosphere for the novels of her leisure hours.
 'The M'chopis, purest of the Kafir tribes, foster the classic music of the Mozambique marimba- The instru- 1 ments of this tribe have resonators of wild gourd placed beneath the xylo- phone keys. Apertures in these gourds | are covered with membranes from the wings of bats. The resulting sound | is what is described as a 'snarling rat
 tle,' continuing several seconds after the sound within has ceased. Aug
 menting this weird effect, the notes are in minor key.
 The native orchestra is composed
 entirely of xylophones and drums, but | there are many sizes of the former and numerous varieties of the latter The drums are used to give a rhyth- mic background rather than to ac- centuate the tempo or emphasize the tonal effects. A few years ago these
 drums would have sounded strange

According Co records kept Of automo- ales stolen in Connecticut during last Tear 2e auto owners of this common wealth did not suffer as heavily as aid thoso of some other states. and yet the humber was large enough when it is Nowu that there were over 37o stolen. hting a vaiue Of a haf million dollars. Even though there were from s5 to 70 per cent of the stolen cars recovered, tae loss was nevertheless heavy mas much as the expenditures required on the recovered cars averaged about s15O for repairs alone.
 nc opportunities for the theft of cars have encouraged many to resort to ihs method of getting rich quick but in the opinion of a judge of a Cincinnati court too much encouragement has been gwen to it through leniency on the pat cf judges. Time and again have men been brought into court for the theft of cars only Co have sentence suspended This situation reached the limit when a young man sneeringly told the Cincln- rau judge that he was guilty. but that he had stolen many cars for joy rides and in the opinion os the parole board Dc ought not Co have a long prison sen tenca The judge thought otherwise and gave him ten years in prison, and add. ca. 'T believe the judges all over ths couutyy have been too lenient to auto uohiie thieves. As long as automobii, steaiiaE is considered almost a joke i win continue. The sooner the court be gins tn deal with it as a felony, whici ir tE. the sooner the evil will be curb ca feel that exercised lenienc, when T sentenced the accused to on!y ten years.

 lf that were the attitude of all thu Judges there would be much less auto mcoiie stealing. Until 1t Is followed th yearly increase In the number of auto monles stolen can be expected. Tn -ourts and parole boards have a servic tc the pubnc to perform which the Gin siznari 3udge clearly points out.

 That the obregon government has done the most for Mexico in the way of establishing peace and directing atten- ton away from fighting to industry has long been apparent. But for the fact that it has refrained from meeting the requirements of this country relative to the protection of the rights and proper ty of subjects of other countries 1t would have obtained recognition long ago.
 It will be most unfortunate, however if the reconstruction work which has been done in that republic is disrupted by the threatened revolution. Mexico has been turning it's attention to peace ful pursuits No country needs it more, and yet all the good that has been ac- complished is threatened with destruc- tion by the revolution which, Diaz and his followers have been organizing. It isn't to be supposed that Obregon has continued in office without arousing op- position,s for such doesn't require much in that country, but the great need is and had been to keep the republic on an even keel under peaceful conditions.
 Mexico has been making slow progress toward the recognition which 1t seeks from this government, It needs that as well as financial assistance and nothing could do greater harm just now than a revolution that would return the coun- try to the conditions of few years ago
