He adds that “if the principles upon which that agreement was founded can endure the stress of war ,it is fair to suppose that even greater success will attend their appli- cation during the calmer periods of peace.” To solve the labor problems aris- ing from reconstruction, Mr. Wilson recommends the continuation of the labor adjustment agency of the Na- tional War Labor Board.

On this point the Secretary says: i In presenting these recommenda-! tions at this time, I regard it unnec- essary to point out further possibili- ties. In setting forth the necessity for land settlement I am not unmindful of the vast numbers who must again find their places in our complex in- dustrial organization. It is too early at present to forecast accurately the industrial organization or needs of our National after the war. All the prop- erly adapted facilitits of the depart- ment of labor are at present engaged jin the study of these problems of re- ing and secondary industry; and from time to time I shall have recommenda- tions and conclusions to present based upon such studies.” The report reviews the expansion response to demands arising out of the war.

These drives finally took the life out of the Pitt men, and the team slowed up appreciably as the game went on.

It was the first bill intro- duced at the December session of con- gress. Some Soldiers Prize, Some Need Uniforms. “Jt must be: obvious,” said Senator Ashurst in explaining the purpose of his measure to me, “that every soldier highly prizes his uniform. Some are so circumstanced that they will want to wear their uniforms and save the expense of an extra spit of clothing after they are discharged. “Moreover, as the years go by and reviews are held, each; soldier will want to wear his uniform in parades. In September, 1915, I saw thousands of Union and Confederate veterans march up Pennsylvania ayenue—the same avenue up which they, ‘marched after the close of the Civil War 50 years before—and a few of them wore the same uniforms thye had worn dn ’65, which they. treasured as priceless. “The government can make na use of discarded uniforms, and if it re- eaten and destroyed. each soldier, sailor and marine after them from civilian life, and they have BION ACHE A harmless and effective prepara tion to relieve the pains of Rheumas tism, Sciatica, Lame Back and Lum- bago is Hamlin’s Wizard Oil, It pen- etrates quickly, drives out soreness, and limbers up stiff aching joints and muscles. ; You have no ideg how. useful it “will be found in casts of every dav ailment or miMap, when there is need of an immediate healing, anti- septic application,: as in. cases, of sprains, bruises, cuts, burns, bites and stings. ~ Get it from druggists:ior 30 cents.
