have been held in Florida during
the visit of President Harding and
been made to him so that the Repub-
lican party might make its issue of
1924 what | shall be pleased to name
the so-called open shop and to con-
duct campaign upon the clear-cut
issue of antagonism to organized
labor. The elements opposed to or
ganized labor will throw all their
power and influence into the con-
quest. This is the first suggestion
of making antagonism to organized
labor a political issue. Reports said
their position should be emphatic, the
declaration inescapable and there
should be no middle ground. Those
who have been accredited with be-
ing the sponsors for that suggestion
and for that movement are the bank
ers, big business and railroad exeeu-
tives.

UNION HATERS, IN POLITICS OR INDUSTRY.
WILL FIND LABOR PREPARED AND militant

Washington, D. c., April
12.-President Gompers of
the American Federation of
Labor, took advantage of
his first day at work after
an illness of a month, to ut
ter a warning to the Ameri-
can Fascist and to declare
that if the so-called open
shop were to be made an is
sue of the 1924 political
campaign Labor would be

Gompers came back to his desk
fully recovered, vigorous and eager
to say word To check the forces OF
reaction reported recently to have
been laying plans for a national pol
itical fight on the trade union move
ment.
Expressing himself to about forty
representatives of press associations

Twin Movements to Achieve Same
Object.

Bear in mind these strikes, not
for advances in wages but to resist
the constant drive for wage reduc-
ions. Now there are twin move
ments having the same object, one
the so-called open shop antagonism
toward organized labor and the other
coupled with every wage reduction.
The resistance, in the strikes of last
summer, not only stopped this mad
rush of wage reductions but also put
a quietuS upon the so-called open
shop.

be given. The people who have
preached this subject to the Presi-
dent-and so much is made of it
evidently believe that either the
party should make some such de-
claration or the President should
make it an issue.
1.-THE administration came pretty
close to declaring in favor of the
open shop last summer" was inter
jected.
WELL" Mr.. Gompers continued,
during that strike the President Sc
cured the promise of the railway
shop men to accept his proposal and
said to them at the time that if they
accepted, he would use the big stick,
the club, upon the railroad executives
andn compel them to accept it. The
men accepted the Presidents propos-
al and the railroad executives re-
lected it, and then the big stick was
used ON the workmen."
How many railroad employees are
still out on striker" was asked.
about one hundred and eighty
thousand" MIR. Gompers replied.
Out of how many?"
Out of over four hundred thou
sand"
About fifty per cent still out 2"
About forty-siX or forty-seven per
cent" Mr.. Gompers said.
TO what extent is that interfer-
ing with the repairing of the rail-
road equipment, etc ?"
Well" Mr.. Gompers continued,
of course the men on strike are the
most competent men, they are uesd
to that character of work and those
who have taken their places are the
incompetents. | do not want to be
understood that every non-union man
is an incompetent workman, but as a
rule, the competent men are in the
unions.

1t was an important issue in
the courthouse and in order to
save his cause from defeat it was
necessary that Lawyer Wilson
should contest the testimony of
an aged witness. The following
dialogue ensued:
Lawyer: How old are you?"
Witness: ''Seventy-two years"
Lawyer: your memory, of
course, is not so brilliant and
vivid as it was twenty years ago,

Witness: I do not know but

anyone who Is passing beyond the

REV. T. j. BURWELI-It would
be a strange house which did not
have n door. ven so It would be a
strange world which did not have
n way of entrance. We are apt to
think Of heaven as a far off place.
unlike anything we know. but here
IL seems that the Biblical writer
wished to offset this tendency of
thought, and to convey the idea that
heaven is SO near that II can be
seen, even In this life. and that II is
after all not altogether different to
what we already know. The term
heaven Is not always used to de-
scribe "a distant world or state, but
to give the idea Of opportunity,
wherever It may be. and this Is well
brought out in the next proceeding
chapter OF the sacred writer. He
wins in the world as we, yet he saw
in heaven nm open door.
Having reviewed several of the
churches, and finding therein con
ditions not ideal, and yet similar
to prevalent ones today. the writer
urged and exhorted them TO amend
their ways, grasp the opportunity
to do better. and promising TO all
who would heed. n sure reward.
The heart Is tho open door 10 the
life Of man, and the living church
OF Jesus Christ is the open door TO
heaven. Would you. my friend,
come In this morning Yes. you IN.
swer in the soul Then have tho
vision of heavens open door. and
step over every obstacle 10 reach IL.
and IL your strength seems to fail
in the approach, fall by the door
and be there when the Master
! comes and he will take you in.

FROM SERMONS
| AS 7 SUNDAY

REV. CHARLES A WILSON
One of the characteristics Of the
teachings Of Jesus was the forward
look to better days. They will be
done on earth is Il Is in heaven"
He must reign till he hath put
all enemies under his feet" declared
the apostle Paul. And again. That
In the ages to come he might show
tho exceeding riches OF his grace
in his kindness toward us through
Christ Jesus The church should
have the forward look Of the Master
and the Apostles. The forward look
is the secret of progress. whether in
business, or statesmanship, or re-
ligion. To get forward the church
must look forward. and not content
itself with the attachments of tho
past.
No age has ever had the last
word in the Interpretation Of divine
revelation. The post-apostolic Greek
and Latin fathers were among the
greatest men OF the world. but they
were subject to tho limitations of
knowledge in their time. The great
leaders OF the reformation were
foremost men of their time. and
among them possibly John Calvin
vas the keenest of all men in the
Interpretation of the Scriptures. but
they did not have he final word.
and they Justified things now con-
demned by the Christian world.
Our wi church has always shown
itself h~ospitable to truth and I'M
afraid of truth new or old. It well
comes men of intellectual force and
brain power for the c~onsecrated
force they can give in the service
of the kingdom. As a people we
believe that the church goe for
ward by tho power OF ideas. and
that tho Spirit uses men OF genius
and power in the promotion of the
kingdom of Christ.
The church that would move for.
ward must not only look forward
but 1t must walk as It looks. At
the present time there Is no major
ity religion in the world. Neither
Christianity, Accommodation, nor
Buddhism holds n majority of the
worlds population. 1t is estimated
that in a century of missionary
enterprise Christianity will become
a majority religion. II christian
men and women do their duty
toward the great commission of
Christ, we believe that this result
could be attained in much less than
a century. perhaps in 10 years.
AS to the prospect for the church
in u city I nm optimistic. I am
not in accord with the sentiment
sometimes expressed that the people
of Casper are unresponsive to re-
ligion. The large number of add
tions to membership which have
been received in this church, and
the many and organized activities
In which they are engaged. and the
good service they are giving make
me hopeful for the future. We in.
vite you all to have part with US
in this great work.
