EIGHT. Kiiche nah Poem MONDAY, JULY 16, 1917. LEAGUE DROS EVES! EYES TEL WHOLE STORY OF WAR AS, SAYS NOTED CHARACTER EXPER PLAN 10 DEAL WITH WORKERS Townley Announces His Organiz- ation Is Divided Over Pro- position of Contract TERMS OF AGREEMENT ARE NOW MADE PUBLIC The Nonpartisan league has dropped its plan for an agreement a8 to wages and hours between the farmers and the gricultural Workers’ union, the organization to which belongs most of the transitory farm laborers who help harvest the ‘North Dakota crops. The announcement that the plan had been abandoned came last night from North Dakota league headquar- ters in Fargo, after an afternoon meet- ing of league farmers at Devils Lake had failed to agree by a tie vote as to whether or not to go ahead with the plan. Previously this week meetings of league farmers at Minot and Bismarck had voted to go ahead with the plan, and a meeting at Valley City had vot- ed just as strongly against it. In a statement President Townley of the league says that the plan is abandoned because league farmers are divided on the question, and that the league could not take up the proposi- ‘ion without the united consent of the menjbers. is re Coincident ‘with this- announpehtent the ‘text of the proposed agreement worked out by league and A. W. U. committees is made public. This agreement was read to all the league meetings, but withheld from publica- tion till all the meetings were over. Here's What Was Proposed. The proposed agreement, as given out last night, was as follows: “Wages—For harvesting the wage shall be $4 for a 10-hour day; over- time, 40 cents per hour; for threshing, minimum wage, $4 for a 10-hour day. “Should wheat sell at $1.75 per bushel, wages to be $4.50; should wheat sell at $2 per bushel, wages to be $5; should wheat sell for $2.25 per bushel, wages to be $5.50; should wheat, sell’ at $2.50 per bushel, wages to be $6. z “Ten hours to constitute a day’s Cleveland, O., July 14.—It is not only democracy against autocracy in this war, but kindliness against bru- tality, optimism against pessimism, good will against treachery, civiliza- tion againstesavagery. The eyes tell it. According to Wil- liam Judson Kibby, character analyst of this city, the eyes betray the char- acter of a person. Contrast the eyes of the allied com- manders with those of the Germans. There’ is the light eyebrow and straight, narrow, keen, gladsome eye of General Pershing. In that eye is nothing but kindliness, humanity, work, and overtime to be paid on all threshing work at the proportionate rate per hour. Wages to be paid above $4 per day to be based on price of No. 1 northern at the local elevator. “Computation of Time—Harvesting: The 10-hour schedule for harvest work means 10 hours in the field.

The wide open, clear eye of Gen- eral Haig, Brxish corymayder, is proof gf humanity and sportsmanship mingled with fighting spirit. On the other hand, the eyes of the German leaders, according to Kib- by’s analysis, reveal brutal, inhuman and unyielding character. The heavy overhanging eyebrow is prominent. That, anthropologists say, is one of the signs of the savage, who belongs more to the stone age than to the twentieth century. Hindenburg’s, von Bethmann-Holl- wegg’s, the kaiser’s eyes—all are jog- ged, not clearly defined and drooping. They shout defiance to humanity and brotherly love.. They proclaim ego- tistic natures and speak for the brutal and inhuman way their owners are waging this war. of teams to care for them on their own time. nos No Pay for idle Time. “Threshing—Teamsters to care for their teams without charge for over- time.

Organized Labor: Given Preference. “The members of the league who sign the agreement are to employ only members of the A. W. U., provided sufficient help is furnished by it, ex- cept that men working by the season, or by the month, or living permanent- ly in the comjmunity, may be em- ployed by members of the league. “Either organization may cease op- erations under this agreement at any time on notice to the other. NO GHAKGE IM MODELS, CHIC OF FOUR COLE i Studebaker Meets Demands for Individuality by Giving Pur- chaser of Series 18 Car Four Options in Color and Special “Gypsy”? Top. Mere man, who formerly scorned | women folk for insisting upon “exclu-| } sive” hats and gowns, have now en- tered that class as regards motor|§ cars, and will no longer chide their |} wives about demanding exclusiveness. A strong evidence of this new mas- culine tendency is shown by the great demand for “special jobs” re- ceived by the Studebaker corpora- tion’s custom made ‘body department. Some of the most striking examples of fine color work to ‘be seen on the famous drives of this country are the Product of Studebaker’s custom made | shops. Guided in their judgment by these |f increasing numbers of motorists who demand individuality in their motor cars, Studebaker announces that henceforth the Series 13 touring cars, both Four and Six, may be had in a choice of four distinctive colors.
