Johnston, president of the Interna- tional Association of Machinist “Labor conditions over a wide area; of modérn industry are intolerable to | a free man and inconsistent with his | human dignity.”—James J. Mallon of | London, England, honorary secretary of the advisory council of British Trade Boards. & These are the keynotes of “The Pub- lio Interest in Industrial Organiza- tion” and of “Social Aspects of the Labor Movement,” sounded by inter- | national leaders in the cause of labor at the general session in Memorial Continental Hall last night, closing the all-day discussion in_a scere of | meetings on the problems and as- pects of “industry” as related to soclal work. | Function of Industry. “The function of industry.” Mr. Mal- lon continued. “is not to fill the pockets of employers and financiers: it Is to minister to the high purposes of life. Mr. Mallon is also head workar of Toynbee Hall, London, and was one of the prime movers in the enactment of the British trade boards act. The theme of Mr. Mallon’s address was, how can Industry fulfill the functions of production, pay adequate dividends and yct conserve the life and health of worker: “The social worker.” he said, “has a vision of a society in which men and women will not any longer be ! bruised or overthrown, in which! children will be cared for and the | good things of this life more evenly sharod than they are today. He sees a society in which there will be no overwork. no underpayment, no de- | nial of the facilities which human beings need for their reasonable ex- pansion and happiness, no Ignorance, no avertible pain.

ADOL| Addresses Group on ‘Mentality in! Relation to Sozial Work. Dr. Adolf Meyer, head of the Phipps ychiatric clinic of Johns Hopkins Hospital, * Baltimore, = addressed @ group meeting of the national con- ference of social work in the Interior Department _auditorium today. Hls subject was “The Growth of Scientifio Understanding of Mentality in Its Relationship to Social Work.” * The meeting was presided over by Dr. William A. White, super'ntendent. of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital. Thomas C. O'Brien, district attorney for Suf- folk county, Mass, was to have spoken on the “Scientific Understand-. ing of Mentality in Its Relationship | to Law,” but that topic was discussed instead by George W. Kirehwey of the New York School of Soclal Work. Dr. Meyer urged upon soclal work- ers the cultivation of fairness and sound judgment, for, he sald, ‘“in| proportion as fairness and sound judgment become the rule, we shall | be uble to overcome the trad'tions i which make people distrust unblased and unlimited study of facts and still prefer legal and other traditional and arbitrary limitations of cvidence nd of practice in the work with human beings and their problems.” ALEXANDRIA. ALEXANDRIA, Va., May 19 (Spe- cial).—A resolution (o borrow $35.000 as a temporary loan for a perfod of | ninety days in anticipation of the sale of funding bonds was presented and | 1aid over at the mecting of city coun- cil yesters afternoon. Tt was s forth that the temporary loans as now oytstanding include im- provement work, $140,000, and school: $21,000. It was further sct forth tha the estimated amount of money neces- sary to finance the city during the present fiscal year is in excess of the recelpts. Authority was granted the city man- ager to appoint 250 special policemen Guring the Skrine convention to serve to be appointed from' time to time. In reply to a question, City Manager Rich stated that in addition to these men and the provost guard to be named for Shrine week he probably will appoint between thirty and forty paid policemen during the Shrine con- vention. The caption of the annual license law was read and it will be gone over at an_adjourned meeting of the city council next Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. i 1In connection with the widening of King street and Russell road the of- fer of C.

Adams to sell the city a; quarter of an acre of ground at that{ intersection for $600 was accepted.) | The work of improving this intersec- tion, It was stated by the city man- ager, was begun May 11 and and will be completed by June 2. A sidewalk five-and-one-half feet wide from the ad bridge to Russell road is be- ing constructed in connectlon with the improvements. At the request of the city manager the proposed change In the fire limits of the city in the northwest section of the city was laid over. Manager Ing the Alexandria real es- tata board desired to go over the matter. Councilman Fannon susgest- ed that if a change be made that all ns of the city be given the same ege as far us extension is con- cerned The idea of the change is to permit the construction of frame buildings in certain sections where such con- struction now Is prohibited. A com- munication was received from the city manager relative to the agree- ment between the state highway commission, Fairfax county and the city of Alexandria in connection with | the $300,000 of road bonds. It was| received, its purport being mainly a) matter of record. t The special committee, composed of Capt. George H. Evans, business man- ager of the chamber of commerce and City Manager Wilder M.

It was, however, testified that the lumber projected over the end of the car to such an extent that Waddill had little room in which to operate the brakes. According to the testimony of Con- ductor Bayliss, a pin came out when Waddill endeavored fo apply the brakes, thus allowing the brake wheel to_spin around and he was thrown off the car, which passed over his body. Bayliss said that following the accident he examined the brake und found it defective, the pin belng nissing. Both Bayliss and Koch testifled that the brake was in working order when the car started from the “hump” and that it must have fafled when an effort was made to check the speed of the car. Testimony given by A. L. Gaines, a freight brakeman, was that he was attracted by a shout from under the cars, and rushing up he saw Waddill lying on the track, and that after he notified railroad 'employes Wadaill was picked up and taken to the hos. pital.

Va., May 19.— i i, SCOREVAY COURTS DEALWITH AL Speake'rs Lament Politics and Graft Interfere With Justice. The immigrant is the victim of an organized system of graft in many of the justice courts and in nfany police courts his case Is declded by polit 1 cousiderations rather than by principles of justice. These charges were made by Miss Kate Holloday Claghorn of the New York School of Social Work, in an address here today before a group meeting of the National Conference of Social Work on “Lower Court Justice and the Immigrant.” in the ros2 room of the Washington Hotel. “The Law’s Delay” was the topic of the meeting. ¥t also was dwelt upon by Alfred Bettman, attorney, Cincinnati. Dean Roscoe Pound of Harvard Law School presided. Tmpression on Vietim. “If substantial justicé is not render- ed the immigrants through the courts, or if he believes that justice is not done him, he is acquiring unfavorable ! ideas of OUr COUTLS, our law, OUF gov- ernment, of the state itself, which the theoretical lessons in citizenship taught In the schools to him and his children, cannot counteract.” —said Miss Claghorn. “The courts the fmmi- grant comes in contact with the mest are the lower courts, and some of them have treated him very badly, and are still doing so. “The immigrant client has a spe- cial need which deserves considera- tion—the need of understanding and of being understood. He may not even understand our language; he | probably unfamiliar with our meth: ods of administering justice. 'Many of our courts are not equipped to meet even the language difficulty. They are either unprovided with in- terpreters or the interpreters are in- competent or biased or corrupt. Muxt Understand Client. “The modern court is beginning to recognize that it is necessary to un- derstand the client himself as well » know his acts. ourts dealing with immigrants should all be equipped with adequate service for interpreting languages. Probation officers should know thej social background of different immi- grant types. and should be equipped with the necessary languages when possible. “Judges should consider knowledge of the characteristics of their immi- grant clients as important as know- ledge of the law they administer. Social agencies assisting immigrants in their contacts with the law should definitely provide for understanding the cllent as well as the case, “So far this need for special under- standing of immigrant types is less recogniged than the need for doing away with cost, delay, grafting, po- litical influence and general ignor- ance In our courts, but it is of equal importance in relation to our immi- grant problem.” EX-CONGRESS MEMBER CUPID’S LATEST VICTIM| Burten E. eet of Iowa, who March 4 completed cight years of service in the Hcuse, was married t morning at 10 o'clock in the Church of the Epiphany by Rev.
