or resources and operating them for
the benefit of the public, but there is
no means available to make an en-
ployer pay his employees certain
wages and there is no law compelling
any man to work against his will.
Entirely apart from the merits of
the Kansas case, the decision affects
the controversy going on between the
railroads and employees unions with
respect to settlement of disputes. La
Dor contended that the present trans
portation act was not to be construed
as compulsory arbitration, though the
railroads insisted that striking shop
men a few years ago were violating
a law and Striking against the Gov
ernment" when they chose to disre
gard the United States Railroad La
Dor Boards rulings.
Railroads Change Views.
Since that time the railroads them
selves have taken the view that the
Labor Board cnnot compel obe-
dience either with respect to wages
or hours of labor or any other rules.
In view of this situation labor has
advanced the proposal that machinery
be created which is purely voluntary
in it's operation, so that mediation and
conciliation can be attempted by COM
petent tribunals. Underlying this pro-
posal, however, is a recognition fun
damentally that there can be no COM
pulsion by law and that only the
forces of public opinion can be
brought into play in appealing to the
reason and sense of justice of the con-
tending parties.
The decision incidentally weakens
the position of "the party of the third
part" as the public has been described
in labor disputes, and makes 1t neces-
sary for the consumer or the public
generally to adopt other means of per-
suading the rival interests to come to
an agreement so the public will not
suffer injury through strikes.

A, F. of L. Head Sees Kansas Court
Idea DESTROYED

Declaring the United States Su-
preme Courts decision yesterday on
the Kansas Industrial Court is a
clear vindication of the position taken
on the Kansas Court by the American
Federation of Labor, William Green,
its president. made the following
statement today:
"This decision completely destroys
the Kansas Industrial Court act.
while I have not had an oppor-
tunity to study this decision care
fully, my impression is that 1t most
clearly establishes the principle that
wages, hours of employment and
working conditions in private indus
try cannot be fixed by law. Through
the decision compulsory arbitration
has received a death blow and Voiun-
tary agreements and voluntary bar
gaining between employer and en-
ploye is firmly and, we hope, perma-
nently established"

is JUDICIAL ADVISER.
Ernesto Barros Aide to Chilean
PlebiscitarY Delegate.

Ernesto Barros has been appointed
by the Chilean government as juridical
adviser to Augustin Edwards, the
Chilean delegate on the plebiscitary
commission.
Barros was minister OF foreign af-
fairs of Chile in 1921, when negotia-
tions for arbitration of the Tacna-
africa dispute were started He also

ing the details of the added expense.
He found that it had been embodied
in the estimate largely on the recon-
mendation of government experts who
had examined the condition of the
White House and as a result had be-
gun to entertain fears as to its safety.
The White House has been standing
long time-more than a century.
Its timbers were stout and strong
when first they were laid in place.
But the ravageS of time had begun
to crumble them here and weaken
them there. Inspection had disclosed
the fact that some Of the supports
to the White House roof had out
lived their time. These supports and
other timbers were rapidly approach
ing the point where requirements soon
would be necessary. There was no
immediate danger that the roof would
topple in, but the time was approach
ing when such danger would become
a real one.
Secretary Slemp had pondered over
the question of including a request for
the money for repairs and then. with
out consulting his chief. but of a
single desire to afford him maximum
comfort and protection, had decided
to ask for the money. Thus S40O. 900
was added to the estimate OF the
existence of such n request the Presi-
dent himself knew absolutely nothing.
President Hears News
On one of his regular weekly visits
TO the Presidents desk, Gen. Lord
took with him the White House esti-
mate. He placed it down, opened.
before the President at his desk and
called attention to the fact that the
figures were much larger than those
submitted for the previous year-in
fact, twice as large.
President Coolidge was astounded.
He sent for Secretary Slemp.
"Why?" was the purport of the
Presidents question. Mr. Slemp stated
the case in his logical and incisive
manner and withdrew The President
took his pencil and drew a line
through the addition.
I'VE can get along without ii for
while" was his only comment.
And so when the estimate for the
White House emerged in final form
1t contained no trace of moneys for
repairing the somewhat shaky roof.
Nor did it run to so great a total
as had the previous estimate. Calvin
Coolidge had decided to take the slight
risk; he had begun to practice gov
ernmental economy within the White
House.

of a two-thirds majority Of the Senate.
Sixteen Senators must sign a writ
ten motion to bring about the closing
of debate upon any pending measure.
On the day following the filing of such
a petition, one hour after the Senate
meets, the presiding officer must lay
the written request before the Sen
ate and directly the secretary must
call the roll. Without debate, each
Senator must vote, aye or nay, OH
the question: lis it the assent of the
Senate that the debate be brought TO
close?"
If the decision is in the affirmative
by two-thirds vote, then the pend
ing measure becomes the unfinished
business to the exclusion of all other
business. and no Senator thereafter
may speak in all more than one hour.
Nor can any amendment be offered
after the vote to bring the debate to
close has been taken. During the
debate following the adoption of the
cloture points of order usually de-
batable and appeals from the decisions
of the presiding officer, also usually
debatable, must be decided without de-
bate. That is Rule 90, of which we
have recently heard so much.

Cloture Rule Invoked.

Cloture petitions under Rule %
have been filed in the Senate several
times, but on only one occasion has
the rule been successfully invoked.
This was during the closing days of
the debate in the Senate on the Yer.
sailles peace treaty. The Straight.
Leaguers and the Reservationists
united against the Irreconciliabies
who represented less than a third of
the Senate.
But on this occasion the cloture rule
was not invoked until there had been
many months Of debate which, accord.
ing to the contention of the minority
educated the country" on the issue
The existence of Rule % has been
effective in fixing a definite date for
votes on important meas asures when
they were being more or less filibus-
tered against. The threat to file the
petition has frequently sufficed to
limit debate and bring about a vote.
On August %, 1917, nearly five
months after we had entered the
war, cloture petition signed by 5e
Senators resulted in una animous
agreement to vote on the war reve-
| nue. pill, which was being filibustered
| against by groups of Senators who
| OBJECTED to various features-the in
coHe tax rates, the insurance fea
| tu9es of the war risk insurance
act, and others. During considera-
ton of the Fordney- tariff
bill, in 1922, which was debated sew
| eral months in the Senate, two at
tempts were made to apply this clio
| ture rule. Both attempts failed, q
| two-thirds majority being lacking.
On the 18th of last March Senate,
| Copeland of New York started a fill
| buster against ratification by the Sen
ate of the Isle of, Pines treaty with
| Cuba. The majority leader filed q
| petition signed by AZ Senators fol
| the application of Rule %. AS Sen
| ator Copeland, after ten hours on his
| feet, and others who were preparing
| to follow him in opposition to the Isle
of Pines treaty realized that actu-
| ally two-thirds of the Senate were iT
| favor of the treaty and that all iI
| favor of the treaty would naturally
support the petition for cloture rule
! he and his small group of persistent
fighters surrendered and agreed to f12
| a definite time for a vote on the
! treaty. At least dozen earlier
I efforts in the past year to fix date
| for vote upon this treaty had failed
| The treaty itself had been pending be
| fore the Senate for 20 years. The alb
| sence. before Rule % was adopted, OF
an effective cloture rule was in large
part responsible for this delay.

A THOUGH cheese is one of
"A the cheapest and best Of
animal food products, and although
this country is one OF the great
cheese producing countries, this
comparatively inexpensive and
ncurishipg food is all too seldom
served at home or hotel tables.
The nourishment contained in
cheese depends principally upon
the milk from which it is made.
Whole milk cheese, of course, is
of higher food value than skim
milk cheese. In general. however.
cheese is rich in both fat and pro-
tein. It is also rich in time, a food
element necessary to health, but
one in which the American diet
is too often deficient.
Unfortunately cheese has fallen
more or less into disfavor because
of its reputatio for causing in
digestion. This prejudice has prob
ably been brought about because
cheese is often served as an ac-
compartment to dessert and not as
a meat substitute.
It is a hearty, highly. concen-
trated food, and when served as
an addition to a hearty meal 1t
may cause trouble.
Care must also be exercised IN
cooking cheese, for, like other pro-
TEN foods, unless it is prepared
at a low temperature and cooked
slowly it is made hard and stringy
and SO not easily digested.
Cottage or cream cheese is an
equally excellent food. 1t Is es-
pecially suited to salads and
spreads for festive occasions.
The following cheese recipes are
selected as examples or tasty
cheese dishes:
