STRIKERS ASSURED from Page One.)

The above reference to other cases again sustains organized labor's charge that the courts have usurped the enforce ment of law where strikers are in volved and that this usurpation is of recent date.
 The decision does not lessen the pow CT of judges to issue labor injunctions, through the jury trial that workers may now demand, will put an end to the ter roristic policy of courts that assume their one function is to aid anti-union employers in smashing strikes.
 The supreme court took the same po- rsition in the case of Sandefur vs Canoe Creek coal company.
 The court also ruled that when work CTS strike their status as employees is not changed.

DAVIS POINTS OUT
 DANGER IN UNREST
 THROUGH COUNTRY
Declares Coolidge's Election Might Intensity Feeling and Cause
 .. Social Revolt.

A plea for the election of the Demo crat national ticket on the ground that the present unrest, which he declared to be due to the ineficiency of the present administration and the dis closures of corruption at Washington, would be intensified by the election of President Coolidge, so that four years hence there might be social revolt, was made this week by John w. Davis in a speech to 5000 persons in Masonic Hall, East St. Louis.
 MT. Davis also urged his election on the ground that the Republican party -or,at least, what he called the "coor' wing of it--could not possibly elect a majority in the next Senate and House of Representatives. Declaring the cleo ton of a Democratic House and Senate was indicated, he urged that complete power be granted to the Democratic party by his own election.
 Tn all seriousness and earnestness, I submit to you that there is i'll this country great unrest" MT. Davis said. There is stirring in the public mind ot the United State great protest, un- informed in part and unintelligent III part, and yet which, like all such things, may mount and grow until it becomes an onrushing storm, uncontrolled and uncomfortable, carrying us on its bosom to ports we cannot know.
 ''What brought 1t about? Why this political uneasiness? Why this social revolt? It must have come from some quarter and arisen from some cause. Is it not the last three and half years ot inefficient government, of corruption III government of privilege in govern ment against which the American people are rising to protest? And Ii that protest this year goes unheeded, and those who have misused the power we give them are returned to places ot authority, what insurance have we that when the wind rises again 1t may not reach the proportions of tempest and sweep us and all that we hold dear into the irretrievable and crashing ruin?
 Il believe myself in safety valves in government, and I believe if you want to cure evils and prevent them you must meet them in time and apply, not repression, not deafen your ear to the cry of the people for relief, not repeat abuses that have been complained of, but correct them while you may, and the democracy offers itself to the American people as the agent and ma chine through which that correction may be applied"
 Tn urging the importance of electing a Congress and president that would work in Harmony, MT. Davis said:
 T want to suggest to you that ii you elect, as I believe you will a Demo- cratic president on the 4th of Novem- Der, am too modest to mention his name"
 "Davisl'' shouted voice, and the crowd applauded.
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-10-25

"I want you to provide him with a Democratic Senate and Democratic
 House" MT. Davis continued. That is
 not a matter of pure partisanship, for
 all experience proves in this country that our government can only function
 party is in control at both ends of
 Pennsylvania avenue.
 There IS very good reason for that.
 How do we govern ourselves i'll the
 United States? No single man or woman in this country is potent or strong enough, standing alone and un- aided to fix the course or conduct this government We must associate our eslves into party groups by and through which we may express our sentiments, may pay our allegiance to certain gen eral principles and may favor certain policies and commit to a particular party the duty of carrying them out And if we do that we must give not only authority; we must place respon- sibility upon them. And ii 1t IS your purpose to have party government III this country we must place parties in power, and you must hold them to strict responsibility for the use they make of 1t.
 And if you should elect a Repub- lican president, I think the country would be better served If he had Sen ate and House of his own party at- filiation But unless 1 read the times and the signs of the times wrong, l say to you that unless all the signs ot the times are playing false, there IS no possibility of election this year ot a Republican House and Republican Senate.
 There are two wings of the Repub- ican party this year, and l have been 1t some loss for adjectives to describe hem. There was a day when they were spoken of as regulars and 'in- ,urgents' This year know ot no ad- ectives to describe them better than he cool wing which wants to keep l .ool. and the hot wing. And do you believe, do you see any possibility, that he cool wing of the Republican party ,AvTS POINT $ TWO 1 S going to carry a majority of the seats in the next House of Representa- ives? If you do, just take down your .tlas and figure from the map for few : .. cd Jo ,,o,, see ar1v possibility 1 hat in the Senate of the United States, where the total of Republican mafgin # majority is vanishing quantity, do ,ou see any possibility there that the cool wing on the one side, or the hot ying on the other, is going to have majority in the Senate of the United States?
 If I am right about that, then uggest to the American people, and to l -ou here this afternoon, that there IS ut one avenue through which you may | ecure for the next quadrennial perlod
 government acting in harmony, m niforrnity and i'll unison. There IS mt one party today that stands be- ore the American people harmonious nd undivided. There Is but one party hat marches in serried ranks and III ,ilitary order, and that party IS, be- ond preadventure, the democracy

Ahmed seated himself on one Of the

She had intended to introduce the
subject by easy stages, but now she
could not wait
Ahmed, What is all this about
you and Felice?"
Ahmed was simple and direct. You
