Therefore they will not accept that which makes slavery either likely or possible, They will find a way to preserve those liberties which they have and to gain more as time passes.” No means for overcoming the dec!- sion was suggested by the council oa account of the creation by the con- vention of a special policy committee viduals were said by the council to clared {t was “extremely alive’ to the attitude of courts as outlined to the convention by Senator La Follette of Wisconsin, who urged a Congressional yeto of Supreme Court decisions. Organizations of farmers and other unincorporated associations of indi- viduals were said by the council to face the same plight as the trade un- ions, for it was said that the decision applies to them with equal force as it does to labor unions, Chief Justice Taft, who wrote the Coronado decision, was sald by the council to have been “purely gratu- itous” by including a ruling ‘in an- ticipation of future cases," and the court’s concurrence in the opinion was described as an “unwarranted act.’ The decision, the council added, was predicated on “ancient and out- awed British court findings,” and resulted in reversal of established law and practices in the United States. “Justice Taft by his subtle inter- pretation and construction," the re- port said, “had directly charged that trade unions are combinations or con- spiracies in restraint of trade, be- cause it 1s only by this presumption and legal assumption that he can justify the declaration that they are associations embraced tn the terms of the Sherman and Clayton acts.” Section 6 of the Clayton,act, con- strued by the report as exempting labor unions from the anti-trust laws, was declared to have been passed by Congress “to rectify the wrong’ done by the Supreme Court in the famous Danbury Hatters’ case, holding the workers Hable for dam- ages as individuals and as a union, “Evidently, the Supreme Court does not intended to be boun: the report added, ‘by the legal enactments of Congress and feels itself superior to the judgment of the law making body of the land."’ ee of railway rehabilitation, improved service and reduced rates, It simply means that it {s only patriotic com- mon sense and justice that every citi- zen, including the railway employee, should co-operate in a cordial spirit, should bear and forbear, until the car- rié ¢ back on thelr fe ‘In this connection tt should be said that the Labor Board has never adopted the theory that human labor is a commodity to be bought and sold upon the market, and consequently to be reduced to starvationwages dur- ing periods of depression and unem- ployment.

By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Evening World.) WASHINGTON, June 17 (Copy- right)—Agreement between repre- sentatives of the Mexican Government and the bankers’ committee, repre- senting the investments of the United States as well as European countries, is the most important step in Mext- can-American relations in twelve years. It cannot but have a far reaching effect on the whole Mexican situation. Not since the days of Diaz, when the Madero uprising first tore asun- der the threads of Mexican finance and started an era of financial chaos, has there been such optimism as to-day. For Mexico's decision to pay her back debts and resume interest payments {s something which gives more evi- dence of the stability of the Obregon Government than a score of protesta- tions on the subject of capacity to govern and earn recognition. Whether it is true or not that the financial interests have in the last twelve years been influential in di- recting the course of many Govern- ments which have become estranged from Mexico the truth is that the set- tlement arrived at by Finance Minis- ter De la Huerta and Thomas W. Lamont of J. P. Morgan & Co., as the representative of the international bankers who hold Mexican obliga- tions, will have the effect of ranging the bankers on the side of the Obre- gon Government in its bid for recog- nition. The crux of the situation, of course, is in Washington, for until the United States Government makes up its mind to recognize the Obregon Ad- ministration, the rest of the Govern- ments of the world will withhold ac- tion, Similarly the extension of rec- ognition by the United States will mean instantly the recognition by the whole world, Mexico's readiness to put her financial house in order will naturally make it difficult for the American Government to delay recognition un- duly, for, alter all, the normal re- quirements are a capacity to govern and maintain order and willingness to satisfy international obligations. There remains only one obstacle to recognition; it is the ambiguity of the Mexican Constitution on the sub- ject of land titles granted before the constitution was adopted. Mexico has insisted that the Supreme Court in- terpretations make it clear that the Constitution does not affect contracts and titles prior to 1917. The American Government is not satisfied with the assurances given and wants an explicit statement to that effect to be embodied in a treaty. This the Mexicans have for one reason or another—mostly national pride—declined to do. But it is pointed out that the agreement on financial questions reached in New York involves questions on which Mexicans are far more sensitive than the making of a formal treaty. The main object of recognition fs to get the moral support of a govern- ment in a country where loans may be sought. If the agreement reached in New York is the forerunner—as it inevitably must be—of the extension to Mexico of financial aid, the ques- tion of recognition will become aca- demic. There is, on the other hand, little chance that Mexico will be given a loan until the United States Govern- ment obtains the assurances it seeks. For American bankers have promised the Department of State that no loans would be floated for the benefit of foreign countries until the Govern- ment at Washington had an oppor- tunity of interposing an objection, It seems certain that while the bankers are glad to have had the opportunity to clear up past indebt- edness they will not immediately leap into the realm of larger finan- cial transactions for the futufe, un- less they know the United States Government intends to throw the full weight of its influence to the support of the Obregon Government, whose life will be short without financial aid as well as recognition. The general opinion here is that Mexico is determined to straighten out all her external relations, political, financial and economic, and that the agreement in New York ts the precursor of consent to a treaty of amity which will mean automatic recognition of the Obregon Govern- ment. ago OHIO UNION TO TEST CORONADO MINE RULING Suit Entered by Printers Over Use of Lab CINCINNATI, June 17 (Assosiated Press).—A sult which 1s expected to test the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Coronado mine case which held that trade unions may sue and be sued has been filed in the Superior Court here, The action is by Edwin L.

Magistrate Simpson discharged the whole sextet—using the French lan- guage gracefully to express his opinion, “Honti soit qui mal y pense,” sald he, looking severely at at the cops.
