Journey
Rx TEMPLE MANNING

BY TEMPLE MANNING
IF YOU like historic, literary
L and academic atmosphere, If
you are happy in a place that
has a brilliant past, an exciting
present and a glowing future.
then Dublin is the place for you.
Always interesting, it is now
more so than ever, since it Is
the capital of the Irish Free
State.
OF course, if you prefer de
luxe hotels, brilliant restaurants
and clubs, then Dublin Is not
for you. But somehow we feel,
reader, that you are the type OF
person who would find every
nook and Granny in Dublin Of
interest.
There's nothing swanky about
Irish travelling accommodat tons,
but. just the same, you will
like the hotel that faces st.
Stephens green. for there you
will meet the tweedy, horsey
Irish aristocratic men and
women eagerly scanning the
bulletin of races and hunting
events held in the vicinity Of
Dublin.
Members OF the Dali Eireann
chat in the lobby, while Just
plain citizens buy sweepstakes
tickets at the stand. You aren't
surprised to learn that during
the rebellion British army Of.
ficers sleep on one floor, while
on another floor their quarry,
irish Republican leaders, well
disguised, met their sympa-
thizers and mapped out their
campaigns. It is all typical Of
a different Dublin.

A SOUTHERN GIRL
Hint to the Ladies
I have lost my respect for
women Of Washington.
And I'm not the only man who
feels the same way about them.
No longer will I raise my hat
in polite gesture, nor will I
hencefortn heed that time-worn
maxim Of "ladies first"
Why?
Because I am convinced that
women of Washington don't
want these gentle courtesies any
more.
Today, on my way to work, I
saw at least six women swagger-
ing down the street, their hats
pulled down over their eyes and
stubs of cigarettes crammed
into the corners Of their
mouths.
It was digusting. Other men
noticed them and grinned.
I wonder If this, as a friendly
hint, may let the ladies see them
selves as others see them? Will
they discontinue this thought
less, disappointing practice?
I doubt it. Therefore, as long
as our women curl up their lips
with the tip Of a cigarette and
squirt their eyes to enjoy a
smoke on the public streets, I
and hundreds Of other men feel
that no duty, no respect Is due,
the girl with a cigarette in her
mouth.

comment. Miss Barrett is an

ing a phase Of life exaggerate
many times the conditions en-
acted, in speech and gesture,
often more than is at all times
necessary to emphasize their
impersonation, and to help the
less intelligent grasp the situa-
ton. Hence, any Of Miss Bar
rett's show work can be under
stood and tolerated on the basis
Of show acting.
However, there is no explana-
ton that can excuse BOARD
ING HOUSE KEEPER" for ex-
coriating the fine young men
and women who have come to
our city from the South. Nor
can we accept her allegation
that the Government Depart
ments are allowing these work
ers to dodge in and out of work
at their pleasure. In all, I would
say that B. H. K. is herself a
Very Bad Actor, since she has
reverted to the ballyhoo Of
showdom by exaggerating her
points much, much too severely.

These fveyear groups fall into four classificatons.
Assume that the available Jobs should be distributed
equally regardless of age. For this assumption there
may be social arguments, but the figures show not
economic ones. If it is accepted, workers under 20
years old have less than their "share'' of jobs.
The group from 20 to 81 years old has surplus of
jobs that from So to 40 just about holds its own and
workers past 50 are the ones who find employment
most difficult.
Employers believe younger men to be more eff
fcient. They fear employment of older workmen may
increase accident rates and make compensation nsur
o1Jo ,uo. ance more COSTLY The older
~ n;onJ,,.,.t worker is at particular disad-
vantage in seeking white-colar
jobs and unskilled or semi skilled industrial employ
ment.
The condition arises from the selfnteres or socially
speaking even from the selfishness of the average
employer. 1t follows that it's cure must appeal to
the sef-nterest. It is suggested that the en-
ployer responsible is thinking so much of hourly eff
ficiency that he overooks the greatest asset of the
older workers-wha may be termed his social stabil-
ity
The automobile industry is itself young. Further
more many of its plants have made practice of lay
ing off and rehiring the bulk of their forces annually
The result has been predominantly young labor
group, which demonstrated its radicalism not only
during the general automobile Strikes but by the series
Of wildcat strikes thereafter which were the despair
even of union officials
The steel industry, the other hand, has retained
far larger proportion of its older workers. This
years strikes demonstrated that radical or revolution
n7ot .1...,. airy leadership had appeal to
a substantial body of these work
Many of them remembered
Comrade Foster and his 1919 strike. If they didn't
remember. their wives reminded them
As its title states this discussion is an appeal to self
ishness 1t not to be msnepreted as an attack on
trade unionism.
But, at the possible risk of oversmplfyng complex
situations there seems to be clear lesson in the con-
trasting labor experience of the automobile and steel
industries. that the employer who keeps his older
workers has less to fear from radical and irresponsible
unions.
