BE Presidont’s expressed hope as to the practical effect of his} appeal to labor at Buffalo hus been promptly realized. His shot did “hit the mark.” Announcement that the Building Trades Section of the American Wederation of Labor has called off all strikes affecting Government work in shipyards, munition plants and other war industries is proof Uist orgenized Iabor in tho United States is able to grasp the force @f the President's argument that only by uninterrupted, unceasing co-| operation of the nation’s productive forces oan the maximum of its) fighting power be attained, “Labor recognizes, moreover, that it is in every way better and more safely American to co- -operate with the Government than to be controlled by the Government, | “The action of the Building Trades Section regarding war indus-" tries sets.an admirable example to workers in every industry upon! which the continued prosperity and enduring power of the country s If, however, labor deserves praise for its loyalty it also deserves Wthe assurance that both the Government and the sentiment of the American people look for and will insist upon a like loyalty from those who employ labor and profit by the distribution of its products. The workers have a right to know that the co-operation will not be allowed to grow one-sided. %s ns the clocks struck lat, : tp i} LICENSED TAXIS ONLY. | Y ADOPTING yesterday, to complete the present taxicab ordi- ‘ mance, an amendment urged by The Evening World and introduced at its request, the Board of Aldermen put an end | te'the injustice by which favored cab companies have been permitted , the-epecial privilege of taking passengers from New York failroadl terminals in unmetered cabs which charge higher rates than the) Hoensed taxis of the streste. To Alderman Robert L. Moran, Vice Chairman of the Board, ctl particularly to the efforts of Frank L. Dowling, its President, was) largely due the victory of yesterday which puts the city’s taxicab ordi- ngnce,on a completely comprehensive basis by compelling Ml vehicles ited as public hacks, from whatever point or points, to be fitted taximeters registering the legal rates, Thus the present ordinance, for which The Evening World fought tte Jong but successful fight, and which has emerged stronger than ever from every test, triumphs over the last insidious encomy that sought to undermine it. The citWasserts its full right to regulate and fix the tariff charges of all public hacks that operate within its limits. . ———-+--—_—_ | The Painleve Ministry may, have fallen, but its declaration for centralized war control subvives for France, as for her Allies, the biggest hope on the war horizon. ———————+ GET ON A GRANULATED BASIS. N THE interest of war saving in general and in view of the present eearcity and high price of sugar in particular—a suggestion: Why continue to demand sugar put up in fancy boxes and forms that require extra labor and add to its cost?

It is ridiculous that in time of shortage some retailors should find themselves with nothing but cartoned sugar to sell to consumers who ought to be able to buy it at bottom prices from the barrel. Give up the “de luxe” packing that adds to the cost of sugar and keeps the refiner from producing enough of the plain kind Get down to a granulated basis. “Je @ thing lost when you know where !t is?” said the ship's cook to the skipper. “Then the tea kettle’s overboard,” said the cook But as to hidden war stores the ekipper was dead to rights Letters From the People | * Please Nmit communications to 150 words.
