Chairnian Hooper of the Railroad/and the Free State government, and it was inevitable that the minority Labor Board and B. M. Jewell, leader of the railroad shop crafts, are making cxplanations which may effect a meet- ing and a settlement of the strike. Chatrman Hooper ‘says that the board has not “outlawed” the unions, but that the board has merely accepted the statement of the leader that the striking men are not employes of the | carriers. This puts out of the the unpleasant word “outlaw,” against | which Jewell and other labor lcaders ook, strong exceptions. On his side, Mr. Jewell explains his failure to ap- péar before the Labor Beard last Fri- day, in response to invitation, on the ground that to do so would have re- sulted in “a moblike suspension of work by the. shopmen and possibly bloodshed.” An attempt at an elev- enth-hour settlement to avert a walk- ont would have resulted, he says, in chaos. 1f these explanations have the effect | of bringing about a resumption of | work they will have been well worth while, whatever view may he taken of them. In point of fact, the strike seems to have “flivvered.” It has not thus far had any effect at all upon | the operation of the roads and has béen participated in, indeed, by far less than 100 pér cent of the member- ship. On some lines only a very small pereentage of the shop workers have gone out. Tn practically all the lines | the vacancies have been filled in some | measure and shop work is continuing at a rate to keep the roads in running | order for the present. < A sign that the striking shopmen realize the unlikelihood of $uecess ap- pears in the disorders reported from the middle western area, where in some cases new employes have been forcibly ousted from shops, and in others attempts have been made ‘to prevent the movement of trains. There has been, some interference with thé mails, also, and this is an indication of either bad leadership or a break- down of .union discipline. For the surest way to lose a raflroad strike is to stop the transportation of the mails. That brings the United States government into the case directly, with the inevitable result of feder: ftefvention and the collapse of the strike. It is possible that the failure of a complete walkout of the shopmen, and especially the refusal of ‘the mainte- nance-of-way men to follow, have con- | tributed to the present willingness of the shoperaft unions’ leaders to confer on terms of strike settlement. Appar- ently the only terms possible are a prompt resumption. of work and ac- ceptance of the wage board’s rulings, with perhaps assurances of a further colsideration of the wage question and | cancellation of repair contracts by the carriers. .~The way is open now for | such an adjustment. ———— Ohio: ‘The President’s visit home has prob- ably increased -stir in the republican | Y i will get busy, while everybody in action will become the more active.

That the success of the advocates of ratification of the Irish Free State treaty in the recent elections sho be followed by prompt ratification of the proposed constitution is the be- lief of most of the editorial writers who have discussed the subject. There is a general suggestion that the con- stitution is a most liberal document, which should be indorsed, if for no other reason, on purely econom grounds. Editors generally Insist there has been too much bloodshed in Ireland and that the time is at hand when reconstruction must be pushed even if the present leaders have to be relegated to oblivion. “Had England granted to the Amer- ican colonlés a measure of independ- ence comparable to that guaranteed B the Yevised Trish constitution,” the ew York Tribune convinced there would have been no Boston tea party and probably no reyolu- tion.” However, as the New York Times points out, “if Lord Bryce were living he would take the keenest in- terest in the new constitution. for it vould rouse him to fresh discussion of his old theme—the value of writ- ten as contrasted with unwritten con- In other words. as the Newark News points out, “for out- siders there is a greater interest the ‘democratic innovations’ in this newest of constitutions, the late: word in government to come from the Jeands. that have been the source of inspiration of most of the world's constitutions. The Irish draft deals with the subjects that a thoroughly modern country is bound to deal with.” And while the “test is still to come.” as tl Sprinfield Republican points out, “if the Irish Free State does not flourish it will not be for lack of a well thought out funda- mental law.” ‘While the constitution would seem to furnish a proper basis for liberal ught, the Syracuse Herald thinks ters.” Chicago Daily News points out, is “of a fairly conservative type,” and it be- lleves that *in this proposed constitu- tion for autonomous Igeland there is a curfous, but quite cable, blend of American, European and colonial ideas.” Holding a somewhat simflar view, the Richmond Times Dispatch says that “practically the Free State is given the status of Canada and the other dominious, and in certain particu- lars the freedom of action guaranteed to the Irish is set forth jn terms more definite and emphatic than would required by any other member of the British commonwealth.” Because of this fact, the Utica Observer Dispatch argues that “it is difficult to under- stand what further privileges would be wanted in Ireland than those pro- vided in this constitution. so it {s prob- able that it will be acceptable to the majority of the people.”” The Detroit News aiso thinks that the present lead- ers must give way for others, because “the essence of the situation is that the Irish must govern themselves, and it is quite clear that when the Irish popular voice becomes irreptessible it will be heard, and, being heard, will be heeded. The Irish cause is now in the hands of the Irish.” Agreeing to this, the Chicago Tribune -suggests that “a]together it appears to be a docu- ment-under which an intelligent, am- bitlous people, honestly seeking both justice and progress, may attain both.

There are those_who have severely criticized the - Washingtonian, and especially the government clerk, for putting too much money on the back and not enough in savings or in buylng a home.

It appears there are severul bands in that state, and with their presence the number of hold-ups and robberies of different sorts has materially in- creased, and there is evidence in pos- session of the officers of the law that the gypsies are responsible. Now the state police has adopted a policy of kéeping the gypsies on the move ‘While it is not so stated officially, it is thought in Massachusetts that the policy is to drive the gypsies out of the state and to keep them out.
