B i (Continued from Page One.) ——————————————————————————— ter, Mr. Dalton stated that he had nothing to say for publication. Martin Dunn of the Third Street " Cate appeared quite cheerful over the eight hour day demand, but Mar- tin is always cheerful, so that doesn’t indicate anything in particular. “What are you going to do about running your restaurant on the new eight hour schedule,” ‘was asked of Mr. Dunn, “Why, 1 guess. we'll run somehow or other,” replied Mr. Dunn. "If we are compelled to put in an eight;lymr schedule, we must necessarily 'pay more for help, and that meaus we must charge more for our meals. “Bemidjl has quite & reputation along the road as being the best place to eat. Not only that, but it is gen- erally known that one gets better meals here for the money thap sny place in the northwest. We have been trying to keep up this reputa- tion by keeping our prices. down as low as possible. “I only hope that we will be able to maintain this reputation under the new scale. At any rate I am go- ing to do the best I can for all econ- cerned.” In speaking of the new scsle and what it means we have secured the following from Mr., Dunn, which will give the general public an idea of the cost of service in a modern res- taurant such es we have in Bemid- 1. Walters present schedule: $35.00 and board per week on 12 hour basis. ‘Waliters ask: $22.40 and board per week on 8 hour basis and time and half for overtime which would be equivalent to $39.20 and board per week on 12 hour basis. Cooks present schedule: $40 ana board per week on 12 hour basis. Cooks ask: $35.00 and board per week on 8 hour basis with time and half for overtime equivalent to $81.- 25 and board for 12 hour basis. Allowing $6.00 per week for board in each case the schedule as asked would mean for waiters $46.20 per week on 12 hour basis and $68.35 for cooks on 12 hours basis. LOCAL INTERCHURCH CONFERENCE YESTERDAY Large delegations from Bagley, Clearbrook, Hines and other. com- munities attended the Interchurch conference in the City building yest- erday. Dr. James Wallace of Macal- “‘Oh, Uncle Ted,” begged Jack, pul- ling at his uncle’s evening néwspaper, ‘‘please tell us a real exciting story tonight. You promised you would if 1 would study hard for an hour, and 1 have just finished. “You’te an awful bother, Jack,” answered his uncle, putting down his newspaper and taking Ruth on his lap. “But I will tell you that story now if you are real quiet and prom‘ao not to tease your sister any more.” “I promise,” quickly answered Jack. “All right. Now this may not be an exciting story, but it ie true and itehappened only a few weeks ago. You both remember, of course, the many, many things I have told you about the world club plan, and you know how the United State’s senate refused to let the United States be- come a member of that dlub as pro- posed by President Wilson beaause it would mean losing all our. strength with foreign countries .and place us under the command of ‘& government of the world instead of -our own. One of the most important things about the plan is the fact -that if we were a member ‘we could not act: with the smaller countries of South America and with Mexico and Cuba as we can now. That is because the world club might not let us act under what is known as the. Monroe Doctrine, a part of one of President Monroe’s messages to congress many, many years ago. I have told you before what that doctrine says, so will not take the time to explain it again. -“In the middle of March of this year, a mob attacked the legation of Peru in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. . You see, Peru is one country in South America, Bollvia another, and Chile another, all right along side one an- other, on or near the Pacific ocean. Each of those countries has repre- sentatives in the other countries just as we have representatives in France and England. This mob attacked the house in Bolivia where the represen~ tative of Peru lives. The trouble was 8o greaf that the Chileans, who thought the peace of their country was to be broken by war, started to mobilize their troops; that is, get their soldiers ready to fight. The Bolivians and the Peruvians, when they saw tHelir neighbor getting ready for war, also said they would bring thelr troops together. Things looked very bad ana everyone thought there would be war. The interesting point about it all is, that all three of these countries are members of the world club which is supposed to be organ- ized. President Wilson wants us to Join it because it will, as he says, help stop war. But when all three of ago, it seems that none of them these countries were getting ready for war just a little over a month thought of acking the club in Europe more than 10,000 miles away, with its supposed machinery ready for business, to help stop the trouble.” “Why didn’t they get the world club to help?” asked Jack. “I don’t know, Jack, except that I think they would all three have been fighting if they had waited for the world club to settle the trouble. It just shows that the world club plan will not work when an actual case comes up for it to handle.” ¥ .“Did they have war?” asked Ruth. “No, Ruth,” answered her uncle, “there was no war but it wes not ] x UNCLE TED’S BED-TIME STORY‘ e e et St. Paul because Hamllne was there, we have léft a very small proportion- ate number, 2.

Rev: Geo: Backhurst delivered tlhie evening 1 ture. L% i stopped by the world club.! It was stopped by the United States by the use of a broad meaning of the fa- mous old Monroe Dootrine ‘and be. oause the United States w: ot a member of the club. In otheérwords, kiddies, the United States-with the same methods she has been using for at least a century preventéd a war almgl!g three members of -‘the world club.” “When did the United States do that?” asked Jack. . “On March 17, Jack, the Amerioan ambassador in'Chile was told by the Department of State in Waghington, to notify the Chilean government that the United States was greatly wors ried about the situation. I will read you just the way our state depart- ment told the story. “‘On March 17," the story reads, ‘the American ambassador {n Chile was instructed by the Department of State to inform the Chilean Minister of Foreign Affairs that the govern- ment of the United States had.in- formed the Bolivian goVernment that it viewed with the gravest apprehen- sion the attack by a mob' on the Pe- ruvian legation and consulate, and on the houses and stores of Peruvians in LaPaz. The Bolivian government was also informed that in the opinion of the Department of State any agi- tation tending to endanger peace on the American continent would be a calamity which would place the grav- est responsibility upon those who countenanced it. ‘The ambassador was further in- struoted to inform the Chilean Min- ister for Foreign Affairs that this ae- partment would deplore mobilization in Chile, and that a similar represen-| tation had been made to Peru and Bolivia regarding mobilization {n those countries. In conclusion, the ambassador was directed to state that the government of the United Btates viewed the situation with gravest ap- prehension, and eounted upon the government of Chile to do everything in its power to avold the breaking out of hostilities on:the ‘west coast of Bouth America, and. tospreserve peace. until a means of solution for the question interesting Chile, Peru and Bolivia could be found other than foroe, which could not be coun- tenanced by the civilized world. ‘‘On March 332, the American am- bassador in -Chile cabled the Depart- ment . that he:had recelved & note from the Chilean Foreign Office ex- pressing thanks for the information the.ambassador had given doncerning Ameérican representations made to the Bolivian government, and deploring the disturbances in La Pas. The note declared. in part that Chile’s conduect in the past, and its sincere desire for peace, will counsel it to look with misgivings on any attempt to disrupt international order. After stating that the Chilean government, when duly informed of the events occuring in La Paz, could not attribute to them greater consequences than to a simple agitation of popular elements, the note concluded with the state. ment that government and people of Chile are absolutely tranquil and have not thought for:a moment of the extreme measure of mobilization.’ “So you see, children, the United States stopped a war because it was not a member of the world club al- thoygh «ae countries who were ready to fight were members of the club.” AN DR. 0.
