UNION DISRUPTER IN
LIME LIGHT AGAIN

SAN FRANCISCO. June 21.-"Cap-
tain Robert Dollar, se.3-appointed
spokesman for would-be disrupters of
organized labor in San Francisco. has
again broken into print" says the
Seamen's Journal.
The captain prides himself on his
anti-unionism. He is a great admirer
Of the coolie, which he employs on
his ships whenever possible.
According to the New York Herald,
Dollar addressed the conservative and
eminently respectable national manu.
tacturers association and actually
gloated over an anarchistic speech
made by himself at meeting in San
Francisco several years ago.
Dollars business associates have
often attempted to deny 1t, but the
old man has now said it all over
again.
Please note that Robert Dollar. who
is a recognized pillar in western anti
union business circles, takes pride in
these facts:
4. That he urged his associates
Ptp send striking union men to the re-
ceiving hospital.
~. That he was a member of a
committee of business men who inter-
viewed the district attorney of San
Francisco and threatened to string
him to telegraph pole unless he did
their bidding.
Talk about the maintenance Of law
and order! Talk about the menace OF
anarchy and bolshevism! What can
we expect from recent arrivals in our
country when great captain of in
dustry like Robert Dollar sets a shame
ful example in urging violence and
lynch law"

THEATERS
WEIR

A romance of the South Seas that
is both thrilling and convincing Is
the new Goldwyn picture, Lost and
Found" by Carey Wilson, which is
the offering at the Weir theatre.
The film is filled with pictorial
beauty, with strange and compelling
drama, with unusual persons in thrill
Ing situations. 1t may be classified,
for those who like such definitions,
as romantic melodrama, with action
rapid enough to suit the most jaded
taste. The photography is unusually
clear and much of it depicts scenes
that are beautiful beyond belief. sg
Goldwyn announced that it had sent
the director R. A. Walsh, and the en-
tire cast to Tahiti to film the story
on the spot where the action is sup
posed to take place. That this was
really done is borne out by the picture
itself; nowhere else than on and
among the islands of the South Seas
could such land and sea soaps have
been found. The entire film, on the
pictorial side, is a panorama Of beau
tiful scenes.
The story concerns one Captain
Blackbird, a planter on a Pacific
island, whose wife deserted him for
the island governor. fleeing with their
eldest daughter, injuring the younger
in her made haste to leave. The man,
swearing vengeance upon all of her
sex, took to the seas as master of a
slave ship. Upon the deck of his YES
sci the drama is played out when
his elder daughter appears. Not
knowing her identity, Captain Black
bird is on the point Of forcing her to
marry Dingo. his filthy mate. The
revelation OF who she is comes, and
there follows one of the widest, most
realistic ship-fights ever staged for
picture.
The cast is exceptionally gifted,
House Peters as Captain Blackbird
again proving his right to stand at
the head of his profession. Other
players who give sterling and vivid
performances are Pauline Starke, An
tonic Moreno, Rosemary Theby, Geo.
Siegmann, Mary Jane Irving, William
v. Mong and Carl Harbaugh.

GOLDEN GATE CLOAK
MAKERS WIN FIGHT

Organized cloak makers of San
Francisco have won their three
months fight against the anti-unior
shop.
n The fight was waged solely on the
question of collective bargaining. This
the workers demanded, while employ.
ers insisted on bargaining with indi.
vidual employees. Every corporate in
terest in this city was arrayed on the
side of the employers who would es-
tablish this anti-union principle. The
victorious workers are members of the
International Ladies Garment Work
'ers union.

HAVE A HEART
FOR The CLERKS

The action of the local mer-
chants in arranging to close their
stores on Tuesday afternoons dur
ing the months of July and Au-
gust in order that their clerks
may have a little recreation and
an opportunity of attending the
base ball games is commendable.
The observance Of midweek
half holiday during the summer
months is the common practice
of the stores of most cities and
larger towns, affording a well
come relief to the employees dur
ing the hot months and causing
little if any loss Of business to
the stores.
Another thing upon which the
merchants shouldget to gether on
is the matter of earlier closing
hours. After a closing hour of,
say, six thirty is established in
the public mind, little inconveni-
ence would be caused the trading
public by the change. 1t is a
hardship, and an unnecessary
one at that, to force clerks to
work twelve hours and longer
day. t. to nine O'Clock
closing V in effect is an
anachronism. Its abolition and
the establishment Of a reasonable
closing hour, early enough to
leave the evenings open for
recreation and rest, would in the
long run be a distinct benefit to
the stores themselves in improy-
ed morale Of the clerks.
As far as the general public is
concerned there would probably
be a few individuals irconveni-
enced for little Will after the
change is effected. but The habit
Of shopping earlier would be
quickly established. At1east that
is tie case everywhera else.

Ships and Sealing Wax

The breaking of the British !
customs seals on the liquor
brought by British ships into our
territorial waters seems a simple
and proper thing to our prohibi-
ton enforcement officers. They
have the law on their side. They
are carrying out the instructions
of the Treasury. So why bother
if in the act they make the coun-
try appear ridiculous in the eyes
of the world and outrage the
feelings of friendly nation?
The comments of the English
press on the proceeding are
somewhat challenging, but they
are only milk and water compar-
ed with the furious language
which the newspapers of the
| United States would use if the
situation were reversed. 1t is
easy to imagine the shreks and
defiances which would have been
emitted if British officials had
done to our ships what we have
done to theirs. All the profess
sional patriots who keep their
blood on a simmer so as to be
ready for such incidents would
at once have brought it to the
/ boil.
Whether the British Govern
ment will take up the case of the
steamship companies does not
yet appear. When the matter
was raised in the House of Com
mons a couple of weeks ago the
Premier stated, in answer to a
question, that the Cabinet was
considering what treasures" it
might be possible to adopt in con-
sequence of the American action.
This might be taken to mean re-
prisals, Probably that is vide of
the British intention. But the
Foreign Office may have it in
mind to take up the case with
our Department of State. not in
the way of disputing our right
to enoct what laws we please,
not by questioning American
jurisdiction within the three-mile
limit, but by setting forth in a
solemn protest the unwisdom of
unnecessary interference with
the customs of other countries
customs which have been so long
established as almost to amount
to rights and by so much break
down the comfy that ought to
exist between nations.
No one contends that our Gov
eminent has had IAN alternative
to the execution of the law as
laid down by the Supreme Court.
But, on the other hand, no one
can deny that we have got our
selves into a mess. Our course
in this business has made US
either a laughing stock or an OBJ
ject of suspicion and dislike. 1t
is openly alleged that we resort
to dealing with foreign shipping
as we have done for the unavow-
ed burpose of placing American
ships in TIE foreign trade in a
position better to compete for
business with European lines.
This is an unfounded charge. We
have simply gone laundering
along with the Interpretation and
enforcement of a law which no.
body understood at the time of
its enactment to have the bearing
and scope now given to it. Ger
tainly a powerful case is being
built up for amendatary legisla-
tion by Congress. Nothing else,
apparently, can get us out of the
scrape into which we have fallen.
