Crooks In Paradise

JOB
OFFERED TO .
GREEN
Mine Leader Urges
A. F. L. Head to Quit
Craft Union Fight
international News Service


John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers, today Of
fered William L. Green, president
of the American Federation of
Labor, his post as head OF the
eight unions seeking labor organi'
zation along industrial uni o n
lines.
Characteristic of the militant
mine leader, Lewis offer was con-
tanned in brief letter sent to
Green in answer to one from the
latter defending the traditional
craft union organization.
Three weeks ago Lewis surprised
the labor world by suddenly re-
signing as vice president of the
A. F. of L., and announcing forna'
tion of a committee Of eight union
heads to foster industrial unions
in mass production industries.
Denies Seeking Job
Lewis issued a categorical denial
that he is seeking Green's office
as president of the Federation.
The mine chief said:
II do not covet your office: IN
proof, submit the record Of years
of support of your personal and
official fortunes.
Lewis gave voice to rumors that
Green personally does not believe
in craft unions but is defending
them as a matter of official policy.
"It is bruited about" Lewis
wrote, that your private sympa'
thieS and individual inclinations
lie with the group espouSing the
industrial type of organization
while your official actions and
public utterances will be in sup
port of their adversaries. Such
policy is vulnerable to criticism
and will hardly suffice to protect
you against attacks that may en-
sue from advocates of craft phil
osophy."
Offers Own Post
Then Lewis offered Green his
own position as head of the com
mittee:
why not return to your
fathers house," he said. "You
will be welcome. If you care tc
disassociate yourself from the
present position, the committee
for industrial organization will be
happy to make you its chairman
in my stead. The honorarium
will be equal to that you now re
ceive. The position would be as
permanent as the one you occupy
You would receive the satisfaction
of supporting a cause in which
you believe inherently, and of con
tributing your fine abilities tc
the achievement of an enlarged
opportunity for the Nations

placing your little girl than by
any real concern for the welfare
of your other children.
Possibly the extra advantages
which your little girl has may
cause some envy among her
brothers and sisters. While this
is regrettable it can not be helped.
All of us at some time or other
have had the painful experience of
watching others receive benefits
which We would like to have our
selves. 1t is a part of life and
something to which we have to
adjust whether we like it or not.
If by sending the little sister
away you were depriving the
others of a similar chance, you
would be unfair. But they would
not benefit one with her presence
at home. It would be mere
generous of them to rejoice in
sisters good fortune than to ex-
pect her to be sacrificed for their
SakeS.
There is a grain of truth in the
statement that the little girl may
think herself above her brothers
and sisters, but only grain. Even
so this evil is not half so great
as the evil which would result
from living at home with father
who disliked her When one must
make a choice between two evils
surely it is wisdom to choose the
lesser.
The fathers tardy affection for
the child is no doubt assumed to
make him feel less guilty. 1t
hardly sounds genuine, but the
less you say to him about it the
better. For the child'S sake, avoid
antagonizing the father.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am in low

it is very childish for grown-up
person to refuse to speak to her

if there is any basis in reality
for her mistrust of your sutton.

fact in her objections instead of
attributing them all to her wish

A Woman S
Viewpoint
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
T DARESAY it would be impossi-
l. BILE to compute the number of
marriages that have failed only be-
cause men insisted uponu idealiz-
ing women. At least the middle
aged generation grew up with the
fixed conviction that all so-called
good women" were cousins to the
angels, had no earthly vices and
wanted only one thing from for
tune-a mans respect, love and
always, let me hasten to
add, husbands.
Just how the old-faShioned fellow
could reconcile the idea of such a
divine creature and himself living
together, is one of the unsolved rid
dies of the past. Yet he did, and
presumably with no mental strain
whatever. The poor thing was dis
illusioned over and over again, but
went right along training his sons
in the same foolish belief until the
boys themselves got wise to the girls
and the truth.
That's the main reason why mar
riage is bound to improve, even
though it sometimes seems to be
doing otherwise. In the future men
and women will expect less of each
other. They will have an increased
knowledge of psychology, and finer
tolerance toward the faults of COM
panions. am fully convinced, I'M
less we revert to complete barbarism,
that generations in the future will
have something better in the way of
marriage than has ever before been
known on earth.
1t is stupid of us to expect our
mates to be exempt from mortal
frailty. If he must. let man still
harbor in his heart the image of the
ideal woman, but being smart, he'll
make up his mind to keep her
there. She'll never turn up in any
body's kitchen.
Regard for example, one Of the
funniest inconsistencies of the hus-
band in the past. While he inva-
riably spoke of his wife as the
weaker vessel" at the same time he
expected and demanded almost SUI
perhuman behavior from her. If
she was not a very bulwark Of
strength. nobility, virtue. sweetness
and obedience he considered himself
gypped in the matrimonial market.
In the future boys will expect
less and get more. When we take
the halo from woman's head. we
give an added glory to marriage.
Because men and women together
must work their way to happiness by
the practice of understanding, SYM
pathy, tolerance and love.
