MINE STRIKE
NEEDSURGENT,
SAYS PURCELL

lspeeIaI 70 La oaIIy W0rkerl


BERLIN 10y Mail).-The president
Of the International Federation Of
Trade Unions (Amsterdam), A. A. Pur-
cell, who recently was in Berlin, made
the following statement TO a represen-
tative Of the international Press Cor
respondenee, who asked the aim Of his
visit:
Our journey to Berlin is section of
our program to obtain financial assist
ance for the British miners as quickly
as possible, for both the Miners Fed
Grafton of Great Britain and the Gen,
eral Council are convinced that the
coming month will see the eliminating
point in the struggle Of the British
miners. If the latter are able to hold
out another three weeks then they will
win, altho the difficulties facing them
are tremendous.
Uses Army to Break Strike.
The government has sent the army
into the coal districts so that it
can be used at any time against the
miners. Not only the police have been
modified in masses against the min
ers, but special police force with
mounted sections has been modified.
The magistrates are mostly repre-
sentatives of the coal Darons, who
punish and fling. In the most unheard
of style, hundreds of miners into
prison for crimes which are very often
no crimes at all. In its merciless
struggle against the miners the gov
eminent even goes so far as to in
struct the local authorities to cut or
even abolish completely the support
which the miners receive TO feed their
wives and children.
over and above that, miners fami-
lies who, on account of their desper-
ate situation, are unable to pay rent,
are mercilessly evicted from their cot
tages. The fact that under such cir
cumstances the miners have been able
to hold out for II weeks in an iron
front with only. absolutely negligible
break here and there, proves the he
roic character of the struggle which
is now going on.
The coming weeks will bring a de-
cision and this decision will go in
favor of the miners if the workers
abroad do all they can to support their
British comrades. 1t must be con-
tinually stressed that this struggle OF
the British miners is no purely British
struggle but a struggle the outcome
of which will be of the greatest sig
niflcance for the whole international
working class.
Should the British mine owners be
successful in forcing an increase Of
the working hours, then this will
quickly make itself felt in the other
countries where the employers will
follow the British example and SINH
larly demand an increase of the work
ing hours.
Should the British mine owners be
successful in abolishing the national
agreement, then this would mean an
attack upon agreements altogether.
It would go so far that there would
be no longer agreements for whole
branches of industry. but for districts,

An Introduction to Color.
BY ELIZABETH STETSON.

Color is really more important than
any other one feature in the interior
Of the house. It creates the first and
deepest impression Of everything we
see. It Is also essentially a matter of
feeling, not reason-we feel that we
like view, a room or a dress, but
when we come to analyze this we
cannot get any further, we just like"
this color or combination of colors
and can't explain why in terms of
reason. The reaction is emotional
Color can make us happy. sad or
angry. Every one knows the effect of
red on a bull Man also reacts more
or less violently to the colors that
surround him. Even the person who
knows least about color will speak
OF the depressing influence Of dull
rooms done in drab browns and melan-
choly green's. Very often the person
who wants to buy a house would be
perfectly satisfied with the one in
which she lives. though she does not
realize It. II she could make over the
interior in the cheerful and attractive
colors which she sees in the modern
homes.
Many Have Eye for Color"
some people are Dorm WIN an eye
for color" as we express it, just as
others are born or appear to grow up
with a talent for music or an ability
to act. They seem to be able to com.
bine different colors in such a way as
TO please the majority Of people who
see them. Unfortunately. or perhaps
fortunately. for the artists who have
to make their living, we do not all
possess this ability. And no matter
how good or how complete a color
theory we substitute. we can never
really make up for this lack of color
sense.
Color as a whole is not fully under
stood yet. and there are violent diff
ferences In the teachings of many
noted artists and schools.
Scientifically, color seems to be
controlled by the amount of light
striking an object and by the refiec-
tion Of light from that object. The
amount Of reflection Is due to the tex
ture Of the objects surface, hence
rough-surfaced objects tend to appear
deeper in color than smooth-surfaced
ones as they break up and absorb the
light. This can be illustrated in the
case Of two walls painted the same
color, but with a different finish-one
In a glazed finish and the other with
Il stipple. Invariably the glazed fin
fsh will appear much lighter than the
stipple due TO the greater amount of
light reflected.
