 The argument became hot. Craft union men shouted down auto spokesmen. Lewis, demanding that they be heard, walked down the aisle to Hutcheson and demanded he cease his interruptions. Fighting words were murrnured and Lewis knocked the huge carpenter across an oaken table.
 In Heated Stage \
 This bellicose exchange was an example of the heated stage which the fifty-year-old craft-industrial issue had reached. Lewis's packers felt that the federation had failed in its own mandate to organize the

 Already, in 1884, the issue had be- come of major importance. Indus trial linionists had forced over resolution demanding issuance oi charters in the mass-production field. At last years meeting Lewis presented a series of questions ask ing what had been done along these lines. The council attempted to ex- plain but dissatisfaction mounted.
 Lewis Goes Ahead
 Last November the long-drawn is- sue crystallized and advocates of the two ideas finally arrayed themselves in battle lines. Early in that month Lewis formed his Committee for In- dustrial Organization, dedicated to the idea of organizing, the mass production industries. Drives II, steel, rubber, automobiles, textiles glass, radio, and other mining fields were launched. The original eight unions in the committee soon swelled to 12. M

half century.
 They are veterans of industrial warfare, strikes and lockouts. They are sure of themselves and of their power. Their beliefs are firmly en- trenched, their opinions virtually unshakeable.
 In the present controversy, clash of these personal opinions has co- incided with a wide split over fund.- amental policies in the craft-indus- trial unionism scisrn.
 Diverse Leaders
 The two foremost figures in the controversy are William Green, quiet, suave president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, and John L. Lewis, dynamic and pugnacious president of the United Mine Work CTS Union and leader of the Commit tee for Industrial Organization.
 Both Green and Lewis will deny any disaffection for the other. But those who are close to them say that at times the mention of the others. name, will make either of them hot under the collar.
 Behind this rivalry of the heads of the A. F. of L. and the 0. I. O. is another personal element, the argu- ment between subsidiary bosses" of the various unions. Most prominent in this feud is the dominating tri- umvirate of the federation's execu- tive council: William Big Bill' Hutcheson, Arthur O. Wharton and c. M. Bugniazet. These are the out- spoken proponents of the craft tra- dition and their influence on Green is not small.
 The contrast between these lead CTS, Lewis lon one side, Hutcheson and his cohorts on the other, with Green attempting to mediate but driven into the craft trenches by circumstance, is significant.
 William Green is a pleasant hammered, mild man, with a chubby, boyish face. He is 8 tactful admin istrator. He likes to work his way by suasion rather than force. He believes in expressing the majority voice of the body he governs. This is the old Gompers craft idea.
 Continually urging him to speak this view is the burly Hutcheson, president of the Brotherhood or car penters and Joiners, a union second only to the miners in numerical strength. Hutcheson is a huge Iei- low and forceful.
 On the other hand is heavy-set Lewis, also a big man, with broad shoulders, a jaw like the mouth oI a steam shovel, and leontne mane of dark hair, fringed in gray. ~ Lewis's elbow is smiling, suave Sid- ney Hillman, leader of the clotning workers, man whose cunning ana wisdom are famed far beyond the textile centers and the mill clues which he represents. Would Push Ahead
 Contrasted to the caution ot Green. the traditional stand of Hutcheson, is the vigorous conten- ton of the 0. I. O. that organization of the production industries must be undertaken. Because these men feel the federation has de- layed and fumbled the task, they believe in pushing boldly ahead, within the "A. F. of L. or without.
 Only once has Q prominent 'ia- stance of personal antagonism DuIst forth. That was in the case or the famous "one-punch" fight between Lewis and Hutcheson. It occurred at the Atlantic City convention oi the federation last year. At thH meeting there was much opposition

MARRIAGE TESTS
 CHARGES DENIED
Health Department Exams and Analyses at LabO- E ratOries Free

To offset prevailing mistaken impression concerning the new mar riage law blood test examination, the state department of health stated in its current monthly bul- letin that its bureau of laboratories makes no charge to physicians or health officers not only for this analysis but for any examination or test.
 This, 1t was pointed out, is in keeping with provisions in the gen. eral statutes made when the state bacteriological laboratory, which be- gan to function as an organized unit in 1905 and became the bureau of laboratories of the reorganized state department of health in 1917. The statutes empower the depart ment to maintain laboratories and specifically to establish and control meteorological laboratory for ex- animation of supposed morbid tis- sues for the diagnosis of infectious disease to be made, free of expense, upon the application of registered physicians or health officers.
 Another section of the statutes authorizes town, city or borough health officers, when in their judg- ment, health may be rnenaced or impaired through Q water supply, to send, subject to the approval of the county health off1cer, samples of such water to the department for

Shall we depart for the country And nice quiet inn, Where there's no celebration And no noise or din? Shall we pack lots of stuff For fine picnic spread, With lots of cold things Or a dog roast instead? Shall we take short cruise In an urge to roam, Or shall we be contented To stay right at home?

"Seeds" Is divided into eight chap
ters. The first describes many strange
shapes and forms OF seeds, the next
two are devoted to the curious ways
in which seeds are spread. These are
followed by two chapters on strange
and common uses of seeds and then
comes a startling chapter on poison
Gus seeds-startling because it lists
so many common garden and wild
seeds as definitely poisonous. The
last two chapters are devoted to edible
seeds and superstitions about seeds.
Throughout the book there is a
mingling of fact and fancy, due to the
authors method of introducing the
opinions and lore of the ancient
herbalists. While the last chapter is
mainly concerned with superstitions,
there is a liberal besprinkling of old
wives tales throughout the book.

Of one period and lived through sew
eral others. There are stories of other
lives which began at subsequent dates
and some of which, supposedly, still
continue and will influence lives and
stories to come.
Sabrina is the first heroine. Her
conscious life began in the first decade
of the nineteenth century, when Eng
land was still under the influence Of
the mad George III. 1t was a period
of excess, of lewdness, of vulgarity
But it was dying period, a period
that was soon to merge into the rigors
and bravery of the Napoleonic wars.
Sabrina started her social career at
Hcentious mask ball and reached
the climax of her life as one of Flor
ence Nightingale's gallant company.
Clare, the second character, the
daughter of two flaming idealists, is
the personification Of the Victorian
era, with all its silly pruderies, its
flounces and furbelows and all its
strength and tenacity and core of
fundamental greatness.
Charlotte Is q reincarnation of Sa-
brina. She rebels against the arti-
fatalities, the restrictions and the
tyrannies of the Victorian era, and
finds herself in the turmoil of the
suffrage cause.
The fourth and last heroine Is Gil
liam Rose, characteristically called Jill.
Here Is, perhaps, the saddest story
of all, for she never found her meter
at all. Her story is the story Of that
swift-moving period of change be-
tween the last Edward and the present
Edward. It is still too close for us
to Judge 1t comfortably.
