MUTUALITY

Americas workers believe that
nigh wages constitute stepping stones
to higher levels of living for them
selves and their dependents. They
know that wage increases have value
only as they can be exchanged for
commodities and opportunities. This
exchange in turn is dependent upon
increased productivity. Workers alone
can not increase production. The
processes of production are determin-
ed by management. Workers can
contribute from their practical expe-
riences if management agrees to such
cooperation.
Machine production is collective
undertaking. If all work together
there may be perfect coordination
without waste. If any group or in
dividual insists upon going his own
way, the total output slows up.
In order that there may be CO.
operation, there must be mutual con-
fidence and understanding of each
others point of view. Herein lies the
necessity of explaining labor's ideals
and hopes to employers, management
and shop foremen. Those who con-
troll management have need to know
what workers are thinking and why
their program is what it is.
If employers understand the con-
structive possibilities of trade union
ism they will see that they have much |
more to gain from securing the CO.
operation of unions than from fight
ing them. Opposition to union organ
izations involves considerable expense
and the higher costs of production
from workers restive under arbitrary

control. When better alternative
is offered and management is con-
vinced the plan is practicable, the
majority will be more than glad to
offer partnership in an endeavor to
put production on higher plane. CO.
operation makes possible intelligent
consideration of problems and deci-
sions upon basis of fact. Through
cooperation the rule of reason re-
places trial by force.
This is the proposal America s
workers make to Americas employ

perhaps the most serious legal as
sault in many years on the rights of
labor. There is no appeal from it
except to the people, of the United
States. If the people spoke strongly
against the attitude Of the court as
shown in the stone cutters case, the
court might reverse its decision if a
similar case should come before it in
the future. Will labor carry the ap-
peal to the people in convincing
fashion, or will it remain largely in
different? On the answer to this de-
pends perhaps the very future of
effective trade unionism in the United
States Of America.

OUTDOOR PLAY INCREASING
Despite the tendency of great num-
bers of people to take their outdoor
exercise by watching comparatively
few at athletic sports and games, out
door play is increasing, according to
the 1926 report of the Playground and
Recreation Association of America,
whose work has been indorsed by the
American Federation of Labor.
1t is still evident that far too small
a part of the population plays out
doors, but it is good news that more
and more persons are joining actively
in open-air sports and games. This
growth of outdoor play is making cit
les realize better their responsible
ties in providing adequate facilities
for sports and games. There is still
much to be done in this direction, but
the report of the Recreation Associa-
ton shows that at least good be-
ginning has been made.

Lou Nau last week when the citizens

Lou was chairman of the commission

More than 175,000 bituminous min

based on non-union fields of West
Virginia and Kentucky.
This mighty army of idle coal dig
gers attracts no public attention
There is sparse editorial comment and
thunders for the ''rights of the pub

Why this silence? Is it because
the public is assured that large stocks
of coal will cause them no inconven-
ience?
Is it not time some one talked of
the public's duties?

ANOTHER JUDICIAL ASSAULT

The supreme court of the United
States, Justice Holmes and Brandeis
dissenting, holds that trade unions
are subject to the antitrust laws and
that it is illegal for them to refuse
TO handle non-union products trans
ported from state to state. This is
the sense of the courts decision in the
case of "a stone producing companies
against the Journeymen Stone Cut
ters' Association.
The court holds that the "a con-
Germs engaged in producing stone are
entitled to an injunction against the
Stone Cutters Union. The injunc-
tion was sought under Section 16 of
the Clayton act.
The decision constitutes another of
a long series of judicial assaults on
the Clayton act, whose passage in 1914
was hailed by organized labor as an
epoch-making victory in the struggle
Of labor for industrial liberty.

certificate of homicide in her death
and suicide in his death.
A coroner's jury today returned
a verdict of suicide in the case of
James F. Woods, Al, 213 c ST.
n. w, who drove his automobile
over the sea wall at Hams Point.
Since the brakes on the car were
locked when the car and its occu-
pant were taken from Washington
Channel of the Potomac River, tire
theory was that Woods had at
tempted to stop the car when it
left the Speedway.
1t vase testified, however, at the
inquest. that the anchor of the
rescue squad probably grappled the
brake and locked it, since it was
pulled to the last notch.
Statements by several witnesses
were to the effect that Woods cir
cled the Speedway twice and then
deliberately turned the wheels and
plunged into 20 feet Of water with
out making any effort to stop.
Woods, the father of two chill
dren, was at the wheel when the
car was recovered. Fire depart.
ment rescuers and naval doctors
worked an hour trying to resusi-
tate him.
Police and the dead mans widow
said today they believed his death
was due to an accident.
Private J. b. Belt, of the police
repair shop, examined the machine
Immediately after it was recovered
and found the emergency brake
locked and the brake lever pulled
back to the last notch. Belt said
he interpreted this to show that
Woods had attempted to stop the
speeding car with the hand brake.
The widow, Mrs. Mable Evelyn
Woods, said her husband drove her to
Woodward and Lothrop's, where
she is employed, yesterday morning
and appeared to be in the best of
spirits.
Operations. resulting in the re-
moval of five varicose veins from
one leg and a large vein from the
other. had caused Woods to tenn
porarily lose the use of his legs
on several occasions, she said. Mrs
Woods believes her husbands legs
were paralyzed yesterday and that
he was unable to use the foot brake
in attempting to stop the car.
In addition to the widow. Woods
is survived by two sons, George, IL,
and James Francis, jr., Is. Both
are in school. He is also survived
by four sisters, Mrs. N. A. Gull
berth, radio and concert singer; Mrs.
Kathryn McInnis, Hartford Conn.,,
and Mrs. F. C. Bennett and Mrs.
M. B. Hart. Springfield, Mass.
The body is at Frank Geier's

Msgr. G. F. Thomas, st. Patricks

All Dignity Gone
When the speeches were con.
cluded and Lindbergh left, the
chamber forgot ite dignity and
| deputies toppled over chairs,
jumped hedges and vaulted from
windows in order to get a closer
glimpse of the flying hero.
Leaving the chamber, Lindbergh's
progress was a triumphaI recep.
ton as he made his way through
the boulevards.
Crowds thronged about him and
| cheered wildly when he stopped
at the offices Of LIE Matin and
entered.
Seemingly unimpressed by his
great ovation, Lindbergh went to
the upper stories Of LIE Matin Build
ing for view of the city, and
looked out a long time as the
broad expanses spread before him.
"This is more like the Paris /
have dreamed about and read about
and I am beginning to feel for the
first time that I am in France %
he said.
Leaving lie Matin offices Lind
bergh was again besieged on all
sides by his admirers as he pro-
ceeded to the American Embassy.
Paris seems unable to get enough
Of Lindbergh and he made his way
to the embassy with slow progress.
At the embasys he decided to take
well.earned rest.
While In Brussels, Lindbergh will
be a guest at the American EN-
bassy.
Louis Bleriot, who was the first
man, to fly across the English
channel, entertained Lindberg at
luncheon today.
Among the guests were Minister
Of War Painleve, the several other
members of the cabinet, Ambas.
sador Herrick and the French
aviator, Capt. Belletier D'Oisy.
Adolph Zukor, leaving for New
York on the s. s. Majestic today,
announced that Lindbergh had def.
initely rejected his offer of a $780,.

would not accept any theatrical
movie offer. but he would con-
slider a commercial offer connected
with aviation" said Zukor.
A crowd of more than 500 waited
in front Of the Bleriot apartment
where Lindbergh lunched today,
hoping to see him and demanding
his appearance on a Balcony.
The apartment, however, is en-
q court and Lindbergh could not
hear the cheering demands made
by his admirers in the streets.
Charles LiRdbergh was back in
his own sphere for q while today,
completely happy as he tinkered
with wrenches and drills, working
as an ordinary mechanic upon his
plane which has been standing in
