Who's Games Come First

Labor strikes have been more
frequent and have involved larger
number of workers during the past
two months than at any time since
the sitdown strikes in Detroit. There
has been no end of critisicm Of the
National Administration because of
its continued defense of '1abor's
gains, as a reason for not crack
ing down on big strikes that have
interfered with national defense.
The present agitation of the ques-
ton favors greater power to the
Mediation Board for settling labor
strikes. But it does not seem prob
able that anything will be done In
that direction or through the passage

HOW Is OUR WAR GOING.
BY ]. e. Jones

Washington, d. C. June 1.-The
program for building up National
Defense lis progressing very well,
and industries and business firms
are delivering goods" according to
agreements, to the Government. The
biggest showdown has resulted
from strikes, and there are no indi-
cations that we have seen the last of
these.
The testimony of high Naval OFF,
GERS is that there have been only
about a dozen ships lost that carried
American goods. Planes have been
flown across the Atlantic to Eng
land with practically no loss in
transit
In the meantime the American
Treasury has been giving all-aid to
Britain, by and with the consent OF
the Administration and Congress.
The number of our own ships has
been supplemented by reason of the
capture of vessels of many ma
tions that sought refuge in our har-
bors, and by new merchant and
war vessels being built in our own
shipbuilding plants.
The European War isn't going
just exactly the way official Wash
ington helped plan it. That may par
TALLY explain the increase of prop
uganda by private organizations
and groups that are trying to bring
pressure on the National Admins
tration to drop neutrality, and
use the American Navy and our
Merchant marine for out-and-out
participation in the war.
But the war mongers are not sup
ported by public Opinion, as has been
shown by the Gallup Poll, which
has the reputation of being thor
oughly reliable. The same condition
reported from private investigations
is sustained in the flood of letters
to Senators and congressman whose
mail shows overwhelming opposi-
ton to all proposals that would send
the young men of this country to
war.

The Women-Bless Them!

At the fiftieth annual meeting of
the General Federation of Women's
Clubs just held in Atlantic City
special tributes were made to the
heroines and pioneers at a Golden
Jubilee. 1t was the greatest dele
gate group of women ever to as
semble, and records at the Haddon
Hall, the Chalfonte and other hotels
indicated that 10000 women came
to the New Jersey resort. They not
only enjoyed their meetings but
they also filled their lungs with the
purest air on the Atlantic coast.
Among those specially honored
were Mrs. J. Borden Hartman, re-
cent minister to Norway; Congress
woman Jeanette Rankin of Mon
tana; Katherine Lenrott, Director
of the Federal Children's Bureau
and Mary Anderson of the Federal
Woman's Bureau, all women stand
ing at the top in Washington. Ap-
propriate recognition was also ex-
tended to Mrs. Roosevelt, Mrs. Har-
vey w. Wiley, and other outstanding
women of the National Capital.
The rails and the highways are
doing their daily work i'm transport
ing passengers from the National
Capital to Atlantic City, in search
of the healthful benefits of the At
lantic Seaboard.
