Mr.. Kerwin. 'There is general re-
luctance among our people to set up
any machinery which would have ar
bitrary power to prescribe an iron
clad basis for the settlement of any
differences between employers and
workers. Both working men and en-
ployers are in most cases opposed to
surrendering their rights and author
ity tosa third party in matters which
should be arranged between them
selves.
ave have just about established the
fact that you can not force industrial
peace into existence by legal enact
ment. Experience has demonstrated,
wherever compulsory arbitration has
been tried, that it will not work. The
remedy lies not in governmental or
other interference between employer
and employee, but in direct negotia-
ton and mutual understanding"
Ryan Discusses Amendment
The Child Labor Amendment was
an outstanding question in the DELHI
erations of the conference. Rev. John
A. Ryan, d. D., professor of moral
theology at the Catholic University of
America, Washington, d. c., read a
paper on the subject. ~ 's
"The question Of the twentieth
amendment and Federal regulation
may be reduced to choice between
two evils said DR.. Ryan. SIS the
evil of centralized control greater or
less than the evil of inadequate regu-
lation by the States? Evidently a
person may be at once intelligent and
honest and answer this question in
the affirmative or in the negative, ac-
cording to his estimate of all the con-
siderations involved. 1883 sf
For my own part, I still believe
that Federal regulation Is a smaller
evil than the vast amount of undesir-
able child labor which exists, and
which is likely to exist for many years
to come if the matter is left entirely
to the States. Nevertheless, I can
understand and fully appreciate the
position Of those who take the oppo-
site view. I" -.

vice president of the National Wom-

"They want to try new ways, and
they are determined group in any
campaign in which they enter. They
are considered less compromising than
men, but believe it is because they
think out very carefully their pro-
gram and if they believe it is right
they stick to it. They want to be
equipped for their task, so they are
training for their trade union act
ivities just as other groups of women
are training for citizenship for their
civic work.
"The trade union women have pio-
neered in the movement for work
ers' education, and now the men are
following along. It is one Of the big
movements growing alongside of the
trade union movement.
Trade unionisnf among women has
made strides and has had the same
setbacks that the men in the move
mept have met. They have the same
opposition to fight whether in their
trade union work OF in the legisla-
tive work. The men and women
must work in the same trade union
movement, but the women must have
their own organization in addition, SO

affords us one Of the easiest ways of

TYPES, OF FIRES

Underwriters Barometer Shows
 Kind to Expect

New York. Oct. 2s tP - What type of fires to expect in selected months can be foretold with req sonable certainty by the National Board of Fire Underwriters.
 The Board has found that the arson curve reflects not only the ebb and flow of prosperity. but also, with unvarying regularity. the closing of the special seasons in certain commodities. A precise re- lation between incendiary fires and industrial seasons Is known to ea- lst.

Some important sections of the garment trades season ends in April, and from the middle Of that month. underwriters assert. they may expect a sudden increase in calls for. fire settlements.

LOG CABIN HOME
 TO BE RESTORED
Birthplace of James Buchanan
 Is at Chambersburg, Pa.

Cfsmhersburg, Pa. Oct. 23 Hl-- The weather worn old log cabin in which James Buchanan, fifteenth president of the United States, was born on April 23, 17s1. Is to be re. stored and preserved as a memorial to Pennsyvania's only president.
 Built originally by the presi- dents father In the mountains of southern Pennsylvania, the cabin was moved nearly & century ago to Mercersburg, where 1t has since stood, used much of the time as a tenant house. Now 1t is being torn down and moved again: this time 10 Chambersburg, where 1t will be rebuilt on lot near the center of the town.
 The elder Buchanan was an Irishman who came to America soon after the Revolution, and set out to make q living as a trader among the Indians and frontiers men. Choosing A lonely spot in the hills north of the Maryland border he built two log cabins, one for a home and the other store. In time his place became known to the traders and trappers as Stony Batter" Here the son Jamie" was born.
 His trading operations proved so profitable that. Buchanan finally moved to Mercersburg and from there he sent his son to school and later to college. The young man be- came leader in local affairs and represented his district in the state legislature and in congress-

grations. Although declared to be widespread. arson Is difficult crime to prove and many claims are settled that just failed to bring a criminal indictment.
 Those who fight incendiarism have little sentiment about fires. In William street they give cred- ence to the story that Mrs. o'Leary's COW kicked over a lan- tern and so burned Chicago half a century ago, and that a lone Pennsylvania crow short -circuited two high tension wires last June and caused dozen or more blazes. These were fires of fate. accepted as such.

Japanese Girls Tongue |. Attacked by Microbes

Tokyo. Oct. 2S OD -- Strange things in medicine and surgery are often reported from Japan. but one Of the strangest is the recent case of girl whose three-inch tongue was eaten up to one inch by mi crobes. By cauterization, the surg cons report, they were able to re- store one inch of the organ 80 that the girl now has a tongue two inches in length.
 The patient, Miss Sonoko Torii, .1S years old. found while she was attending school that her tongue apparently was getting shorter. Within 6 few months the tongue had decreased to such an extent that the girl had difficulty in talk ing. She consulted number. of doctors who said they could do nothing for her. Finally ono of the most prominent Japanese surgeons decided the tongue was "colonized" by unknown microbes. He tried cauterizationt and g. "cure" appar- entity was effected. Japanese sci entists say there is no record of a similar case.

more must apply for identity cards
within 4S hours of their arrival went

There has been no rush to the pre-

ever, and it is just as well, for the
bureau charged with foreign identity
card service has made no preparation
to receive them Surprise was ex-
pressed when the officials were in
formed that the rule voted last Octo-
ber had become operative.
Foreigners need not worry about
the new regulation for the time be-

police headquarters. 1t was added
that the rule, although effective in
law, was not being enforced in fact,
and would not be until official noti-

ministry of interior.
At the ministry the correspond ents
We're Informed that the officials failed
to see why foreigners should be more
eager to give up their money than
the authorities were to ask them for
1t. Ample warning would be given
to foreign residents before the decree
was rigidly enforced, If ever, was the
information impaired.
Strong pressure is being brought
to bear on the government to rescind
the measure. Hotel mems associa-
