Twelve Michigan Leaders
Say U. s. Tradition
Must be Kept

Twelve outstanding Democratic
lawyers of Michigan took a stand
this week against a third term
for President Roosevelt as a viola
d ton of a great American tradition.
1--WE believe the danger to the
welfare Of our country and to the
Liberties of our. people from a third
term transcends all considerations
of partisanship and requires US to
speak out" the lawyers explain in
joint statement prepared for gen.
eral circulation.
Participating in the pronounce
ment are: Arthur j. Lacy, Detroit;
Louis j. Colombo, Detroit; Dean W.
Kelley, Lansing; Joseph R. Gillard,
Grand Rapids; Clarence X. Patter-
son, Pontiac; Kim Sigler, Hastings;
John w. Adams. Kalamazoo; Mar
ion S. Harlan, Detroit; James ].
Noon, Jackson; Frank C. Golden,
Detroit; Orla B. Taylor, Detroit;
Edward A. Macdonald, Detroit.
They support their third term
opposition with an exhaustive his
torical research, in which they
attest findings of Thomas H. Reed,
former professor of polite |
science at the University of Mich
igan, that the great weight Of
opinion Of American presidents
and statesmen over $50 years has
built up a tradition that should
not now be violated.
From the Democratic party plat
form Of 1896, they quote a plank
asserting that mo man should be
eligible for a third term" and
assert they will withhold ale
glance from any Democrat who
repudiates it.
George Washington and those
illustrious Democrats, Thomas JEFF
ferson, Andrew Jackson and Grover
Cleveland were quoted as among
hose who set or chung to the pat
tern.
Congress, with many Democrats
participating, more deeply etched
the principle, the lawyers assert,
when the House in the time of
Ulysses S. Grant and The Senate
ia the time of Calvin Coolidge,
adopted resolutions asserting that
departure from the time-honored
custom would be unwise, unpatri-
otto and fraught with peril for our
fee institutions.
The lawyers point out that no
greater emergency now confronts
the country than at the end of
Jefferson's second term, when he

Democratic Lawyers Take
Stand Against Third I Term

spurned the third term which he
so easily could have gotten, say
ing:
THAT l should lay down my
charge at a proper period, is as
much duty as to have borne it
faithfully. If some termination
of the services of chief magis-
trate be not fixed by the constitu-
ton, or supplied by practice, his
office, nominally for years, will, in
fact, become for life; and history
shows how easily that degenerates
into an inheritance | shoald
unwillingly be the person who, dis
regarding the sound precedent set
b. an illustrious predecessor, should
furnish the FIST example of pro-
longation beyond the second term
of Office"
Citing the enormous wers
which now have been centered in
the presidency, with more than a
million civil employees and three
and one-half million persons re-
ceiving direct relief, and with con-
troll of the country's credit and
regulatory power over business,
natural resources, farms and in
dustry, the lawyers point out that
the power of president to perpe-
tuate himself in Office has increased
enormously.
If Roosevelt skaters the tradi-
ton, it will be gore Forever, and
future presidents would be at lib
erty to stand for any number of
elections, they urge.
eve are threatened today from
within and without by rival theories
of government supported by ex-
tensive propaganda and prodigious
military force" the lawyers say.
quite apart from any specula-
ton as to whether the opportuni-
ties Of a <nfd term would be
abused by President Roosevelt,
they might be abused by a sue
cessor more ambitious and less
scrupulous than he.
Dictatorship is in the wind. We
must not destroy such elementary
projections as we now have against
it.
$50 long as the third term ira
dition stands, there is no danger Of
dictatorship in America. If we
destroy that tradition now, it is
certain that future presidents, who,
as Sen. Norris said, can control
conventions as no other man on
earth can control them, will be
enabled to secure denomination as
often as they please. And cleo
ton, with the vast power Of the
Federal government in the control
of the President will be more than
a possibility"

Jobs Filled In Illinois
During July Show A
Gain Over Year Ago

Chicago LNs)-Jobs filled by the
Illinois State Employment Service
during July show an increase of APP
proximately &c per cent over the num-
Der filled in the same month of 1899,
Director of Labor Martin P. Durkin
reported.
There was, however, drop of
about II per cent from the number
of jobs filled in June of this year.
This decline is seasonal Durkin
said, since July is usually one of the
dull months of the year from the
standpoint of job placements. A total
of IL, ,866 jobs was filled in July. This
compares with 9,446 in July, 1889, and
with 13,476 in June, 1910.
Most of the jobs filled were in
private industry" Director Durkin
said. "The increase over last year
was largely due to a greater demand
for skilled men, especially in the
metal trades. There is constantly
improving demand for men in these
trades"

Senator Mead Opposes
Labor Gains BlackOut

Niagara Falls, N. Y-United States
Senator James M Mead of New York
told the annual convention of the
State Council of Carpenters here
that high labor standards must not
be lowered in the national defense
program.
"One thing" he said, tive must
promise ourselves and make unmis-
takably crystal-clear to all who would
use this crisis to break down the
hard-won labor victories of the last
seven years. That is, that there will
be no blackout of labor gains, and no

ficed-must not be sacrificed the

ALL AID FOR BRITAIN
SHORT OF WAR URGED
BY GREEN OF A. F. |.

Washington, D. C.-President VIII
liam Green of the American Fedora
ton of Labor declared he favored
"all support of Great Britain short
of war" in the present European con-
fiict, in an address at the convention
banquet of the international Photo
Engravers' Union.
Pledging the A. F. of L. to "give
to the government its full measure
of support in the national defense
program" President Green said the
body is opposed to conscription until
voluntary enlistment is first tried out
by the government.
"First we should know the man.
power needs of the nation he said.
eve should raise the army in the
accepted and American way-frst call
for volunteer enlistment, then if it
is imperative to mobilize large
enough army, we should be willing to
see conscription enacted"
Stating that the A. F. of L. recog-
nized the need of a greater navy >
Mr.. Green said it favors development
/, of adequate national defense.
1--WE are willing that the people OF
America should work toward the de-
Tense of the American continent. But
we are opposed to America becoming
involved in foreign conflict and send
ing troops abroad"
He discussed the rift of the A. F
of L. and the c. |. o., and stated that
a committee of the A. F. of L. "stands
ready now to meet anywhere, any time
with a committee of the C. /. o. tx
bring about settlement.
Responsibility for the split within
the ranks of labor rests squarely OF
the shoulders of the rival rebel leader
who led the revolt"
He declared that "When labor pre-
sents solid front either POLITICAL!
or economically there Is no power II
America that can ever defeat it unitec
and solid"
Edward J. Volz, president of tn,
union, discussed its growth in a brie
speech Matthew Woll, first vice-presi
dent of the union, called for the unioi
of all labor and warned that "shoulC
Great Britain lose it's battle, all of u
will be in danger of losing our lib
critics and government"
Volz was reelected president of th'
union; Woll, first vice-president

DRIVE TO ENFORCE
WACE-HOUR ACT in
FIVE INDUSTRIES

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-A ma
ton wide drive for compliance with
the wage and hour law in five indus
tries has been begun throughout the
country, with 237 inspectors especially
assigned to the job, it was announced
by Colonel Philip B. Fleming, admin
istrator of the Wage and Hour Divi-
sion, u. S. Department of Labor.
These industries are: furniture,
leather goods and luggage, boots and
shoes, hosiery and woolen goods. The
compliance drive is to be completed
by October 1. More than 5000 fac
tories will have been inspected by
that time.
The concentrated inspection of these
industries is the second step in the
Wage and Hour Divisions drive to
obtain compliance with the Fair La
Dor Standards Act on national, in
dustry-wide basis. The first move
was compliance drive in the lumber
industry, now said to be approaching
successful conclusion. In the fu-
ture, other industries will be selected
for similar concentrated inspections
by simultaneous action in all areas.
The object is to benefit both employ
ers and employees throughout a given
industry-by protecting an establish
ment that is in compliance from the
lower-cost competition of one which
is not observing the wage and hour
requirements, and by gaining for
workers the wages and overtime to
which they are entitled under the act
