DINNER PAIL ETHICS
(By Bill Lloyd


Our Pershing speaking at West
Point, thinks times is awful out of
joint, because some people do insist
that war be put on the blacklist. He
said those folks may be we'll meaning,
but to his notion, it amt seeming,
that people should oppose all slaugh-
ter and not be fighters like they
oughter.
And he presented long list of
things that calls for the mailed fist.
Resources sure is playing out and
folks will fight, without a doubt, to
grab off wells of spouting oil, or get
the metals in the soil.
And then he lists industrial strife
as calling for the gun and knife. /
Judge from what he said that strikes
is something that he sure dislikes
and he would use the army power to
make the striking worker cover.
He mentions revolutions, too, as
things that cause a great ado, and
with military frown he would use
force to put them down. Effects of
revolutions too he would put under
army screw. In '76, this man SO
CORY, would have most likely been a
tory.
Ambitions to control the sea con-
tribute to a high degree in fixing for
the next great battle, to which well
ship the youth like cattle. And yet
our Wilson's war wuz fought to make
sea powers do what they ought.
He said that any man that thinks
can study out some more conflicts
1t amt worth while, / think, to do it;
the army men would make us rue it
| don't think I'll increase the grist
by adding to the gen'ral's list.
You youths that army posters vamr
and ship away to summer camp, car
read our Pershing's speech and know
just how and why you'll likely go
when folks will tell you not to lag
in fighting for your country's flag
when Wall street makes the killings
mount to balance up their bank ac-
count.

LABOR DAY--I923
BY Frank Morrison
Secretary, American Federation of Labor

deny that unity of action that has
been the workers protection and his
hope.
In every instance the anti-unionist
insists that he treat with workers as
individuals. Occasionally, he forms a
company union" and dictates who
shall represent employees.
If the trade unions accept individ-
ual bargaining, they sign their death
warrant, for it is idle to talk of
unity between workers if they agree
not to function as an organization.
When the employer pleads for in
dividual bargaining he strikes at the
heart of trade unions. He would de-
stroy the collective spirit of workers.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1923-08-31

On Labor Day, 1923, the organized
workers are more conscious of their
cause than ever before.
There can be no substitute for
trade unionism because it grows out
of the needs and experiences and
necessities of the workers. 1t is not
an artificial creation, nor has it been
evolved from the brain of man.
1t is natural grouping of wage
workers who are cemented by the
same ideals and longings, the same
opposition to social injustice and the
same desire to improve their status in
life Those who would destroy US fail
to offer substitute for trade union
ism. They promise much, but would

A man had been in public tele-
phone box for half an hour. He ap-
peared to be bored, and, though ne
held the receiver to his ear, he made
no attempt to speak.
At last one of the crowd outside,
exasperated with waiting, opened the
door and said politely:
Are you speaking to anybody"
The silent one replied: "Yes, 1

DRAFTED
TO RELIEVE COURT
Collins Seeks Provision for
Special Judge.

Temporary relief from congestion
of cases in the Marion County Grim
inal Court is provided in a bill drafted
by Judge James A. Collins and APP
proved by the indianapolis Bar Asso-
citation. It will be introduced in the
Legislature by Representative Rus
sell b. Harrison, the judge SAID.
The measure is the first step in
the reorganization of the county ju-
dicial system, said Judge Collins. Two
years from now it Is planned to have
the Legislature establish a court of
domestic relations and another room
for criminal cases, in place Of SUI
perior Court, room 4 and 5, he said.
A court Of domestic reatiOns IS
badly needed to handle all divorce
cases whore children are involved.
and to tighten the burden Of Juvenile
court, according to the judge.
Immediate relief would be for the
Legislature to provide for mo to ap-
point a special judge at any time, to
hear less important cases" Judge
Collins said. MY bill provides that
the total days served by such special
judges shall not exceed 100 days.
twenty-five jury cases are on the
calendar of the court TO be tried be-
fore March %. In addition there are
500 appeals from lower courts and
grand jury indictments"
