martyrs stake. Thus
negroes once cringed
on their knees, bound.
But these were the
modern worker troops.
Here were the holy,
suffering proletarians.
They lived in bar
racks and huts of laths.
Smell of fried fish and
unsavoriness of spirits
overdowed. T h e
wooden beds struck
against the collins in
the graveyard.
On Sunday an ac-
Gordon longed for Italy
or for Copeland. Some
sick heart sighed for
the thousand others.
They danced together
with heavy, slow foot.
They wanted to stroke
the earth, the morning
was forced to cry out
under the axe. Then
they slipped raspberry
ices for five cents.
And again came the
hundred days of work.
III.
They turned tn e
earth into a sick-bed.
Red fevers spread out
of the air. And the
clouds of mosquitoes
whirled about the sun.
No tree rustled more.
No fiower-star bloom
ed more in this clay
hell. No bird vaulted
into the lost heavens.
It was all pain. 1t
was all refuse and
sulphur. 1t was all
cry and abuse.
The hills tore. their
breast open in a dyna-
mite-cramp. Out of
dripping clefts howled
the wolves of the steam
whistles. Dredgers and
cranes scratched up the
lakes.

The old century still lay among the
people Of the earth.
II.
Hereupon came the long, slow
worker troops. The emigrants and
the exiles. They came with struggle
and with need.
With trembling torments men
came and struck the booming bells
of metal
They lifted their arms as for a
curse and rent the heavens in anger
about their naked shoulders.
Their blood perspired in the earth.
How many lean children, how many
nights of anguish were squandered
on such days
The fists were uplifted like torch
es. Bent bodies. There was work.
There was misery. There was hate.
Thus Spaniards turned once at the

On the wave-steps of the ocean the
white ships clambered down. The

These with singing sails. Those
with smoking tunnels. The pennants
chirped like captured birds.
A new primeval forest Of masts
rustled. From ropes and cables crept
festoons of vines.
And the Pacific Ocean and the At

Oh wedding of the white East and
the Western evening star. Peaca,
peace, was between

Now mankind stood

To the child, Christmas is joy
Gus time. 1t is a revel of happi-
ness and warmth and color. He
stands on tip-toe with excitement. He
is wide-eyed with expectation. He re-
ceives to repletion-knowing neither
why nor whence.
1t is only in later years that the
spirit of Christmas takes on meaning
to him. 1t is only gradually that
giving alternates with receiving and
he comes to know that Christmas is
our annual reminder of the perfect
life of Christ and of his eternal mes
sage: do unto others"
If he shall, by repeated Christmas
celebrations, grasp the message of
service, then life becomes to the in
dividual a wonderful guest, the guest
of happiness- happiness for himself,
his friends, his family, and for those
about him whom he does not see. DO

STOP NEEDLESS ACCIDENTS

One of the most serious problems confronting the nation is accident prevention
 Despite the safety work of recent years accidents increasing. study by the United States Depart men of Labor shows that annaually there cidents in the country resulting death This is lar ger total than the death list of famous and bloody battle. In addton worknen incur 1,5OO,O ,OOO in ures, which result in the loss of weeks of working time
 In Pennsylvania alone, than S83,OOOOOO has been paid to the victims of industrial accidents the last eight years according to Gabriel Moyer manager of the state insurance fund.
 In the period there have been 20, ,462 fatal cidents in Pennsy ana than 100000 serious acci 1ents and than 15OO accidents of all degrees of severity In 1923 there than 5000 fatal acc dents and more than 10000 serious accidents.
 The tremendous waste involved in this great acci- dent list affects not only the nure dworkman and his dents increase labor turnover, bitter feeling, break up coordination and break down the morale essary to efficient production
 All this emphasizes the urgent need of most deter mined and aggressive campaign to the of accidents. The whole question should be studied and safeyt work in dangerous industry should be push ed by organized labor by employers db the state and Federal governments.
 Surely the great United States has the wealth, the intelligence and the will to largely reduce accidents if not almost eliminate them, at least in industries 1t not enough to insurance to injured workers and to the and children of the victims of fatal accidents The thing to do to prevent accidents in the first place. If this is done industry and the people whole will derive ncalculable benefits.

GIVING AWAY THE PEOPLES SHIPS

There is serious danger that we will all become so excited the Teapot Dome expose will entirely entirely overlook a number of less spectacular but equally important attacks the peoples interests which are being made at the moment in Washington. Here is fair example:
 The Shipping Board is literally giving away the national merchant marne which cost the people approx imately three billions.
 Senator Fletcher told the story the floor of the Senate last week. He showed that the board had sold five magnificent ships known the President shps to the Dollar Company for about $55O OOO each. They cost the people $4,OOO,OOO each.
 By way of the board said the boats los ing money but the board immediately decided to spend hald the 1t received from the Dollar interests other boats which proposes to in the losing trade.
 Incidentally, this will enable the board to give fat contracts to certain favored ship yards.
 The city of Los Angeles is of the finest ships the Pacific. It cost the government 677 OOO. The Shipping Board sold it to the Los Angeles Steamship Company for $1OO,OOO.
 How many transactions of this character have been consmmated Is impossible to state at this time.
 Members of the board are disposed to resent any attempt to pry into their work. President Coolidge willing to give them free hand, and up to date Congress has been too busy to start investigation.
 Unless action is quickly taken, the shipping bine will have all the desirable boats owned by the government and Congress will be asked to ap- propriae money to maintain worthless hulks while the benefcaries of the graft denounce the evils and exrav agances of government ownership.

WAGES OF "OPEN SHOP'' ARE DEATH

When in 1919 the employees of the Corn Products Refining Company of Pekin, H., did not think it essary to keep their organization intact and permitted the company to destroy Local No. 73, United Brewery Flour, Cereal and Soft Drink Workers, they little houhgt that about forty of their number would have to pay for such careessness with their lives Yet accord to the of the disaster which visited the plant nJ anuary 3, the company's criminal negligence and the efficiency stunts it nauguarted responsible for the fatal dust explosion which killed outright between 35 and 40 workers and injured 35 others many of them expected to die.
 While the union functioning it forced the ployers to keep two men the job keeping the dry starch building free from dust Also because of the unions demand for double time Sundays the plant idle that day and thus made it possible to thor oughly clean the building week. When the work went back open shop basis those safeguards were eliminated The plant began to operate three shift day week basis the deadly starch dust muated everywhere and there to call atten on to the daily dangers which confronted the workers
 We deeply regret this justifable loss of life. We greatly sympathze with the surviving relatives of those that were killed But should not refrain from point ing to the negligence and shortsighedness the part of the workers themselves. Had they been vgor

sin their fight for their union; had their vision red the little beyond the question of mere immediate gain, they would have been alive today.
 The Corn Products explosion should receive serious thought the part of the workers who consider union afliation of no consequence to them. The union not only attempts to add to their daily ratons of the pro ductlve share of industry in the form of higher wages it not only considers for the development of their health and comfort the union is also the eguard Of the workers eagerly watching, eagerly working, eagerly striving for the elimination of all dangers that threaten to snuff out the lives of those who toll before their allotted time.
