Editorial Comment
Labor Knows It's Friends
uuluth IIeraldl

In persuasive speech before the American Fed
Grafton of Labor at Atlantic City yesterday, Mr..
Purcell, Labor member Of the British parliament,
said it would be fine thing if American labor would
get in touch and keep in touch with what its fellow
workers doing in Russia.
William Green, president of the American FEEDER
alton in succession to the late Samuel Gompers, left
chance for any misunderstanding on that point
Being polite he could to the convention S
guest from the sea, but pounding the table with
clcnched fist to- emphasize his very vigorous remarks,
he said that American labor would never "cast it's
lot with those who would ruin it if they could.
And it is to be noted that "the convention hall
rocked with applause and cheers"
No two ideals could be farther apart than those of
American union labor and those of communism.
Union labor seeks to better the lot of workers
in capitalistic society.
Communism wants the lot of workers in capital
istic society to- get as bad it can be; and if it
is made hard that the workers revolt and destroy
capitalism and the society and governments based
it, that is precisely what communism would like
most.
The ultimate relation of organized labor and or
ganzed capital will be that of partnership and CO.
operation in mutual respect and for mutual benefit
The relation of communism to capital is that of
would-be destroyer to intended victim. 1t is that
now, and it always will be that.
Communism has effective enemy than
successful organized labor. Communism knows that
And when communism holds out open hand to
organized labor, behind it's back is closed fist
with knife in it.
American labor is wise and experienced 1t knows
communism and it knows communism's agents
borers from within whose mission is destruction by
stealth.
American labors reply to this invitation of FRIEND
prise to anybody.
And certainly it should be no surprise to this
Labor member Of the British parliament, for his
own party has very recently declared it's utter indie
pendence and antagonism to communism.
And thereby it has made itself twice the formid
able opponent it before to the established ole
parties Of Great Britain.

"Very we'll, Mister Drake" said the
man. "The car is yours for four
dollars and half. ri take off the
lights and the horn and keep them
here. But if you ever need them just
come in and i'll sell them to YOU"
Mister Drake paid the money and
got into the car and the man showed
him how to run it. Then Mister
Drake drove proudly home to show
the new car to his wife.
"Good-byc," he called to Nick.
"I'm very much obliged to you for
helping me to buy my car. I'll tell
Mrs. Duck all about it and I'm sure
that she will be much obliged, too"
"You are welcome" said Nick, but
when he went back he said to Nancy,
II didn't say a word, Nancy. He
bought the car all by himself. But
that is the way people are. They
feel better just to have someone
along" Then he told her all about
the horn and the lights and about
Mister Drake getting the car cheaper
by not having them.
After that they almost forgot about
Mister Drake and his car. But the
next afternoon the little white and
yellow car stopped ut the "Twin Ca

The Senate Rules

civilian Allen White in the Emporia Gazette)
Since Woodrow Wilson lost his leadership OF the
world and his country in 1919, America has
been led, if not governed, by the United States
ate.
President Wilson, broken in health, struggled
tragically to hold his leadership.
Presidents Harding and Coolidge have striven as
impotently, if not tragcaly, to keep the hollow
forms of leadership in the White House. Harding
struggled perhaps only to save his face; Coolidge
to save the Constitution President Harding came
from the senate, nominated by senatorial cabal
controlling the Republican national convention of
1920.
Partly by way Of courtesy, but sometimes after a
mild contest, the senate let Harding save his pres
idential face. In return for the senatorial kindness
President Harding allowed the senate to entrench
itself in power. Two powerful senatorial blocs
which formed under Harding continued to function
under President Coolidge the agrarian bloc, and
the so-called rreconciables; bipartisan, the
other for the most part Republican.
When President Coolidge came to the White House
| the senate broke the entente BY resolution the

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
MISTER DRAKE BUYS A CAR
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON


One day Master Drake stopped at
the "Twin Garage" and said that he
would like to speak to Nick on some
very important business.
Nick wiped his hands (for he was
putting some oil into Mister Wood
chuck's car, after its bath in the
pond the day Of the race) and said
that he would be pleased to talk to
Mister Drake about business or any
thing else.
Nick was very polite to customers,
although you couldn't say that Mis-
ter Drake was customer exactly.
He hadn't any car at all. So he
never came to the filling station for
anything except advice.
Il want you to go with me TO the
automobile store" said Mister Drake
to Nick this time. "My wife and l
have decided that we would like to
have a car, and we've been saving all
summer SO we could buy one"
"That's just fine" said Nick. "1ll
70 right away. Nancy, you look at
ter things here while I'm gone, will
you?"
Nancy said she would, so Nick
went to the automobile store with
Mister Drake to help him to buy his
automobile.
II want an automobile that isn't
too expensive" said Mister Drake to
the man at the store. III only want
to pay about four dollars and a half

Mister Drake looked the car all
over carefully.

''Thcse days when an automobile

particular service operation is going
to cost. before 1t is actually started"

Company. Cleveland. Ohio. according
to the Southern Motor Sales Company
here.
"No longer does the average mo-
torist want to put up with service
costs which are excessive.
ASSURE SQUARE DEAL.
Gle wants to be assured of a
square deal. 1t must be remembered
that without flat rate system of
charges in effect. it is absolutely i'm
possible for all dealers to maintain a
similar cost on service. Each has his
particular idea as to labor costs and
what maintenance work is worth. This
has proved to be so varying that many
of the foremost motor car manu-
facturers have adopted what is known
as flat rate system Of charge.
'The Cleveland six has just intro
duced system of this character to

COSTS UNIFORM.
"The compilation Of this flat rate
system dates back over several years,
inasmuch as it was necessary to re-
cord the time and cost of thousands Of
service operations in the shops Of

This, of course, has enabled the fac
tory to work out an equitable charge
basis for each service operation in con-
nec.ion with the Cleveland six.
