From Scranton Pennsylvania, John Ringling North
plains it:
With attendance what it
great Singling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey show is losing
money.
It is cheaper to return to
to operate in the red. So back
RALPH WHITEHEAD, head of the American Federation
of Actors, representing the circus union, is sorry to see
this because so many circus people will have no employment.
So is John Ringling's heir. But John R. offered to keep
the show going if his workers would accept a 25 Jq wage cut,
and also agreed to let the union officials look over his books
and see for themselves the circus was losing money.
But the union officials refused. Whether the show was
losing money or making it, was not their affair. They had a
year's contract at a certain wage scale, and rather than accept
a cut in that scale which would violate that contract they
would order a walk-out and
Finally a compromise was
would agree to continue at the job, at the present high wages,
until they had moved the "big top", to winter quarters, then
they would quit, and try to find work elsewhere, or, we
presume, GO ON RELIEF.
Assuming the above facts, as reported by the Associated
Press, are correct, then we have a perfect example of the
basic trouble in American industry, as far as labor relations
are concerned.
Rather than accept a reduction in wages, union labor
prefers to have no wages at all, and see an industry close down,
permanently.
Such action means a loss to labor, a loss to capital, and
as far as that goes a loss of entertainment to the circus-loving
public. But the union officials prefer that universal sacrifice
to making any concessions in
year's wage contract.
And whether the business
losing it, is of so little concern
look over the books of the company, to determine whether the
management is or isn't telling the truth about it.
OBVIOUSLY, as long as such an attitude represents the
temper of organized labor in this country there is no
hope of any satisfactory working agreement, between capital
and labor, it's a fight to the finish with the devil or some
horriferous American Mussolini, taking the hindmost.
But fortunately such an attitude doesn't represent organ
ized labor as a whole.
We note, for example, Mcdford local union No. ll'J4 of
Painters Decorators and Paperhangers of America, and the
local carpenters union, affiliates of the American Federation
of Labor, refuse to declare all producers unfair; unless they
market their products under the
following resolution : ,
f
"It has been widely reported that Medford Union labor has
declared all producers ot tho Rogue River valley unfair" unless
they market their produco under the union label.
"In view of the above, Local Union No. 1124, Painters,
Decorators and Paperhangers of America, an affiliate of the
American Federation of Labor, herewith makes clear Its stand
upon the matter.
"This local will not, at any time, endorse such action.
"Firstly, such a decree Is. itself, 'unfair' and Illogical, at
least until, the employees of the producers themselves are
organized;
"And secondly, believing that the Interests of Industry and
labor Bre ultimately Identical, our sole objective is to effect
equitable and harmonious relations between them and radical
or Ill-considered actions will not hasten that desired goal.
That's the spirit the spirit of good will and fair play.
Had the Ringling circus employees been imbued with the same
spirit, they would have examined the books of the company,
and if they had found the claim of the management sustained,
they would have agreed to a '-'5 reduction in their wages,
on the sound basis, that lower wages would be better than none
at all; that no contract is saeroscant if the conditions under
which it was made, no longer exist; and that it is to the interest
of organized labor as well as capital, that business ANY busi
ness, be allowed a subsistence profit.
afOREOVER there would be precedent for this. The Mail
111 Tribune has operated a union shop, ever since it was
established, and during all that time, the wage scale has been
established by a signed typographical union contract for a
certain given period.
Yet when unforseen emergencies have arisen, such as the
financial panic of l!)'J!) :l;!, the typographical union has NEVER
FAILED to accept a reduction in 'that wage scale, when shown,
that conditions demanded it, even though that meant the
abrogation of a signed contract. Legally the union could have
insisted upon the fulfillment of that contract, technically
they were entitled to their "pound of flesh", but wheu they
realized such action would result in the serious ambarrassment
and probably the bankruptcy of the business, they voluntarily
and willingly, accepted the wage reduction that changed
business conditions demanded.
THE circus union should have done that. Every union should
do it, when convinced that unless such action is taken,
the industry in which they are engaged and upon which they
depend for a livelihood will have to call it a day and quit.
This isn't, from labor's standpoint, any exhibition of the
Polyanna spirit, any disposition to turn the other cheek, in
fact when clearly understood it is nothing more.nor less than
enlightened SELF INTEREST I
For under our American system of government, if private
business fails, organized labor fails; if the capitalistic machine
goes to pieces every labor union in tho country goes to pieces
with it.

FODDER, FIR
In some parte of the world It U
the custom to serve a dish of greens,
raw vegetables, raw fruits, relishes,
usually with dressing or sauce, under
the name ot salad, and at the begin
ning of the dinner. This It a com
mendable custom
from the point
of view of the
physiology of dl.
gestlon and good
health. But In
other parts of the
world the salad
comes later In
the course of the
dinner, perhaps
the last thing be
fore dessert. This
It a mistake so
far as good digestion and good health
are concerned. Anyway, what In tar
nation does a fellow want with fod
der after he haa put away a sub
stantial meal of meat, fish, soup.
vegetables and whatnot?
There ought to be a law about
aalad. I mean a rigid rule of hygiene
prohibiting the use of any cooked
food In a salad. A salad' should con.
tain only RAW greens, relishes, vege
tables or fruits. Cooking destroys or
removes more or less of the vitamins
In raw food and boiling or roasting
or stewing or steaming removes more
or less of the minerals In the natural
food. If cooked food replaces some
of the raw food In a salad the dish
cannot serve Its purpose as a sup
plement to the otherwise deficient
meal.
For those who are stout, over
nourished, too heavy or logy from
overeating, it Is most imperative that
the first course of the main meal of
the day shall be a salad. This Is the
time to pack In a generous filler of
roughage and bulk. It contributes
materially toward the sense of full
ness and satisfaction on which every
one depends to tell him when he has
had enough to eat. With the bread
basket thus prepared, the rest of the
meal rounds out the feeling of reple
tion, on a total of calories far less
than one craves when no salad is
taken. The items generally making
up a salnd provide most of the
vitamins and most of the minerals
required to keep the metabolism nor
mal, and cooked victuals are usually
deficient In these essentials.
So the salad Is a matter of prime
importance In tho corrective regime
of the overnourlshed.

this enisling business. Tell me a
business that has nov gone out of Its
way to stock up in something that
Is out of a different line of business
than-what he started out with.
We will take the garages and fill- 1
lng stations. Some are straight ga- j
rages, but most of them will have a j
few tires and a gasoline pump, some 1
have as high as three pumps.' j
Then . the filling stations hire as
high as five mechanics, and chisel the i
labor price down under the garages !
to get the business and give the men i
only a percentage. Some weeks they
make $5 up to 25. i
The laboring class of people In this
line of business very seldom makes ;
more than their living, If they hap- '
pen to have any family. If a baby i
happens to be coming you ask, t doc- )
tor his fee and ho says S50. just like
that. Come to- the house? Nothing j
doing. Go to the hospital another i
$75. and the wife worries how to I
meet the bills, then another child '
has to have an operation. Doctor and !
hospital $300. Never less than a hun- ;
dred. j
Same way In a1 farmer's family. So
why not some co-operation on this
business of living? Why dont the
merchants organize, the garages, every
business to Itself. j
Have a co-operative hospital with
each doctor doing what he can do j
best doing it, and charge each family j
a stAted sum each year that tho :
working class can pay.
Let the laborers who have the dirty ,
work to do organize and try to better j
their conditions, not be afraid if 1
think for myself being afraid ot los-
lng his Job. For they are trained by :
long years of experience, and they '
want nice homes and education for j
their children. Are they not entitled '
to It the same as your own children
Now for the farmer and the fruit
growers. They are entitled to the same
consideration as' the laborer, as he
works early and late, and the prices
the middle man pays are not enough
to meet the needs or his family and j
the stock he has to feed.
As the only way to meet the situa

of the community s a whole.
I would like to are every farm

ment the town people have. Whenevei
the farmer Is allowed more than an
existence for his produce, you wlh
find more work for the townspeople
As the farmer and his wife have
the same hopes and ambitions as von.
and he is not allowed to set price
of the things he produces, they put ,
men In office who they think will
work for ills good. And they pass the
laws that leave him the loser. You
can't tell your milk and your cream

to endanger his children's health.
They are a healthier group of people

Comment
on the
Days News
By FRANK JENKINS
IP YOU happen to be in the mood
for a little serious thinking, read
this dispatch from Tokyo:
"The people of Japan were
told today (Thursday) that they
would be expected to spend $2,
300,000.000 leas (fon themselves)
this year to augment their
army's war chest."
THAT dispatch tells an Interesting
story.
The normal procedure would be to
TAX the Japanese people 13,300.000,
000 more in order to carry on the
war, but It Is evidently realized that
they can't pay that much, so they
are told tat they must get along
with less to eat, less to wear and less
In the way of housing.
In other words, they are ordereo
to REDUCE THEIR LIVING STAND
ARDS. IP THE army needs more food, the
people at home must get along
with less food. If the army needs
more Iron and steel, tbe people at
home must use less Iron and steel.
But the Japanese people are told
also that trey must get along with
less EXPORTABLE MATERIALS.
That isn't so easy to understand
but It Is equally Important to Ja
pan's purpose.
THE Idea back of limiting home
use of exportable materials Is
this:
Japan must BUY ABROAD for war
purposes, and war needs are so acute
that she must buy more abroad than
she sells abroad. Since she has no
gold with which to pay ner foreign
obligations, she must sell goods
abroad In order to balance the ac
count. So the Japanese 'people must DO
WITHOUT the things they can sell
to other countries.
WHAT it all means, of course. Is
that the Chinese war isn't so
simple and easy as It looked at the
start. Instead of a profitable adven
ture In highway robbery. It is be
ginning to assume tbe aspects of a
life and death struggle.
That Is a good thing for the cause
of peace. As long as national ban
ditry Is profitable, unprincipled na
tions will go on being bandits. But
if experience demonstrates that n
this modern world the lot obtained
by wars of conquest Isn't worth
what It costs there will be less temp
tation to go to war for loot.
If you learn by herd experience
that robbing your neighbor DOESN1
PAY, you'll be less likely to rob an
other neighbor.

Life's a battle not always
won by the strong ...
For Nature supplies a way
to protect her throng.
To the weak that can 't fight
she furnishes speed.
The strong are provided with
claws or jaws they need.
All through the animal king
dom it's SAFETY FIRST
Too often, with man, it's a
case of THIRST.
Or just plain neglect of
brakes for a stop ....
Or mechanical defects we
can fix in our shop !
