Moscow, July 1.-THE all-Russian
executive committee concluded its ses-
sion Immediately after the ratifica-
ton of the new constitution. To be-
come effective, however, the constitu-
tion requires a final ratification by
the all-Russian Soviet. the vast ma
tional assembly that will meet later
in the .ear.
Len:n was reelected chairman Of
the peoples commissars and head of
the government. He was given Two
new assistant presidents in addition
I to Kaminez, Rykov and Tsurups. who
have been serving in that capacity.
. The new men are Chuber of Ukrainia
and Orchalashvily of Georgia. This
Z gives two of the largest states in the

representation in. the council.
Rakovsky, Ukrainia's former pre-
mier and minister for foreign affairs,
who scored such brilliant success al
Genoa last year, has been sent as So
Wet trade representative to Great
Britain in place Of Krassin. who has
been appointed to the enormously i'm
portant post of controlling both for
eiyn and internal trade throughout
ali, Russia.
Both of these appointments promis
well for foreign trade relations. Ra-
koysky has always shown great far
ness Cancellation and liberality IN
dealing with foreigners. Krassin's de-
sire to extend foreign trade by :ak-
ing measures that would win the con.
fidence of foreign nations is well
known.
Smaller States OBJECT.
The greatest difficulty in framing
the new constitution was the unwili-
ingness of the smaller n6tionalitics
especially Georgia, to surrender local
autonomy to central organization
elected upon the basis Of-numbers III
which Soviet Russia must overwheln'
ingly .redominate. This objection was
met in part by the formation Of the
council of nationalities consisting OF
an equal number of representatives
from each group in the republic, ~
IN all, which possess equal Legislative
authority with the council OF th+
union elected upon the basis OF popu,
lation. All laws require the approval
of both houses. The rights OF II;

EIGHT-HoUR DAY IN STEEL.

Judge Gary sees prosperity for steel. This seems to be the
inference to be drawn from the United States Steel Corpora
tons declaration of an unexpected extra dividend on its COM
mon stock. Yet it was only a few months ago that Judge Gary
was dolefuly intimating that ruin stared steel in the face if the
eight-hour workday was introduced in the industry.
Evidently the judge has changed his mind, as he wouldn't
sanction an extra dividend if he thought that the %eighthour day,
now being established in the steel mills, was really menacing
steel profits. True, the judge showed a flash of his old pessi-
mism regarding the eight-hour day when he told reporters that
probably the abolishing of the tweve-hour day was responsible
to some extent for a reduction of the steel corporations earnings
in September. But that he was not seriously alarmed was
shown by his full approval of the declaration of the extra divi-
dend.
Very likely it won't be many months before the judge be-
gins to sing the praises of the eight-hour day. Forgotten will
be his many years of opposition to the shorter workday and his
assertions that the eight-hour day wouldn't work in the steel
industry. The probabilities are that he'll join in approving the
~eight-hour shift and will testify, as does the Post-Tribune of
the steel town of Gary, Ind, that since the coming of the shorter
day in Gary, says: "a volume could be filled with the good
things to be said of the eight-hour day as opposed to the twelve
hour day, but it is all perhaps fairly well summed up in saying
that thousands of working men in this city now have an oppor-
tunity to get better acquainted with their families and to live
normal lives. From a business standpoint, we believe that the
eighthour day will be the best thing that has happened to this
city, although this is really only of secondary Importance"
Judge Gary is considered a man of great foresight, but it
seems that all his arguments against the shorter workday have
been shot full of holes and that organized labor's contentious are
being fulfilled to the letter.

ANTIUNION PLEDGE
FORCED ON WORKERS

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Nov. s.
Under our federal and state constitu-
tions and statute laws the workers
have the constitutional and legal right
to combine in trade unions for their
mutual protection and advancement.
But these rights appear to be paper
rights only for the Chattanooga tex
tile workers as long as the employers
have absolute power to exercise eco
homie violence against the workers
by refusing to employ them unless
they sign away their rights in order
to retain or u work.
This sort of employer violence is
being resorted to by officials of the
United Hosiery Mills in the odious
form of an anti-tradeunion pledge, ac-
cording to the Chattanooga Textile
Workers Union.
The %anti-union contract which it is
alleged the United Hosiery mills is
imposing upon its employees reads:
"If accepted for employment by the
(name of MILL, l agree to work faith
fully and diligently at whatever task
I am assigned to at the wage agreed
up; and further not to leave their en-
ployment without giving two weeks
notice.
81 certify that l am not now a men,
Der of any labor union or organization.
and agree not to hold membership in
any labor union or labor organization
during the term of my employment"
Workers in the company's East
Chattanooga mills have been on strike
for a number Of weeks against unjust
treatment.
1t is charged the anti-union pledges
are part of the company's plan to kill
the spirit Of trade unionism among
textile workers and prevent future
trade union organization.

An Old Receipt
To Darker Hair
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray,
Faded Hair Dark and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui.
phurs Compound" You will get a large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
throgh your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully lark, thick and glossy and
you look years younger.-Adv.

MINE WORKERS WIN
SUIT FOR DAMAGES

FORT SMITH, Ark, Nov. 8.-The
anti-union Coronado Coal company
has lost it's case to mulct the United
Mine Workers of America of 81, 222 900
damages, which it is alleged the COM
pany sustained because Of property
destruction in the Hargord Valley coal
strike of 1914.
The company brought suit in the
United States district court under the
Sherman antitrust act, claiming that
the alleged property destruction inter-
fered with interstate commerce with
in the meaning Of the act and that
the United Mine Workers of America
as a union was legally liable for the
alleged damages.
In directing the verdict Federal
Judge John C. Pollock declared that
the Coronado Coal Company must es-
tablish that everyone against whom
they ask a verdict knowingly partici-
pated in what occurred" 1t must be
established not only that property
was lost through the conspiracy but
that the conspiracy was formed for
the direct purpose of monoplzing in
terstate commerce" for union-mined
coal and to interfere with interstate
commerce in non-union coal.
The Coronado Coal company had
failed to establish this, Judge Pollock
said. II there was a conspiracy at
all, it was a conspiracy to prevent the
operation of the Coronado mines as
n%on-union mines.
But mining coal is not interstate
commerce. And. manifestly, the at
tempt of the miners to persuade
Franklin Bache of Philadelphia to hire
union miners to operate the Coronado
mine can not be regarded as inter-
ference with interstate commerce.
Judge Pollock denied the company's
contention that the United Mine Work
ers as a national union is bound by
the activities Of individual members
of the organization.
This is the second victory for the
mine workers. In the first Coronado
case the lower courts awarded $500, 900
damages. Last year the supreme
court Of the United States reversed
the verdict on the ground that the
company had failed to establish juris-
diction under the Sherman act and
ordered a new trial.

FRANCE ALONE FOR
RESTRICTED INQUIRY
Belgium Britain and Italy in
Accord With Washington
Plan for Full Quiz.

Washington, D. C. = State depart
ment advices indicated that Great Bril-
tain, Italy and Belgium have reached
IN accord favoring a free and full
Preparations inquiry by an expert COM
mittee.
In effect the position of these three
governments as understood here COIN
cides with that taken by the United
States and opposes the stand for a re-
stricted inquiry taken by France.
This development, indicating an en-
tirely new alignment of the European
allies yer the %reparations question,
appeared to stimulate hope here that
eventually the French, too, would &C
cept an unrestricted program of in
quiry rather than risk diplomatic isola-
ticn.
M. Poincare's position in favor Of
only a restricted Investigation, as re-
iterated by him in public addresses in
France Sunday, still is regarded here
as in conflict with the view taken by
the American government.
The statements made by American
Ambassador Herrick in a speech in
the Champagne district have served to
add considerable spice to the general
mixture of feelings with which those
outside the inner circle of the state
department officials here are obserV-
ing developments.
