RETALIATION FROM

countries, and at last we have it IN

American ships affected abroad. 1t
was too much to expect that such a
provision should be allowed to pass
unchallenged, and the first sign of
protest comes from Canada. The do
minion government has been request
ed by Vancouver shipbuiIding inter-
ests to pass an act penalizing repairs
made to Canadian vessels in Ameri-

they have gone further and asked
that the British government be ap-

lation making 1t compulsory for Brit
ish ships on this side of the Atlantic
to take on supplies and equipment
and to undergo repairs in Canadian

ARKANSAS MUST END
ANTI-UNION VIOLENCE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.-President
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor has issued a statement In
sisting that the government OF Ar
kansas shall intervene to protect the
striking employees of the Missouri &
North Kansas railroad at Harrison,
Ark, from mob violence.
"The facts Of mob violence, OF usur.
patton Of municipal authority, of in
timidation, are matters of open rec
ord" declares President Gompers.
Properly constituted government
in the state of Arkansas can vindicate
itself only by speedy determination
of responsibility and an adequate and
quickly determined punishment for
those guilty of one of the worst atroc.
tiles Of our time.
Where there is so mucuh enmity
against labor, surely it is only fair
to insist that duluy constituted au-
thority take charge and perform it's
duty in a situation such as this"

the wage worker and small home

on the contrary, plans are being d.
vided for increasing his load and

The legislature started out in the

November elections would be needed,

this aroused some suspicion at first,

say Of Mr.. Dix. An article In the

the International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union on this point as fol-
lows:
Union Not Needed.
I'VE do not know Mr. Dix's facto-
ries. but we believe he is sincere. Ell
forts to unionize the factories have
been without success because the
workers had good treatment and did
not need the union. There are a few
men in the ladies' garment Industry
who are as sympathetic as Mr.. Dix
Is and who are giving
good conditions to their workers. But
good as that is, it is not helping the
industry as whole to get good con-
ditions. These few men have no in
fluence on other manufacturers whom
we have to fight every step in getting

all paid up. The members of the

most important of all, the proceeds of
the game to the Children's Hospital.
The reason is that there is a $51, 500

income amounts to about $3S,500. The
