All of which only proves that whether the principle of the closed shop is worth fighting, bleeding, and dying for depends entirely on the union.

In some cases, the closed shop does represent a labor monopoly as reprehensible as any business monopoly. In others, it is a simple matter of union security to which no one who grants labor the right to organize and bargain should object. 1802 CHARLES I. SCOTT 1988 ANGELO SCOTT, PablisUer.

Then I went flying to the hotel to fetch her. Everything was packed when I got there, and Marie was just dosing her trunks but not to come to the Avenue du Bois! Mother was, leaving for London on the 2 oclock plane from Le Bourget, to commence rehearsals with the Swedish Opera. Before leaving Salzburg she had signed a contract with them to tour, the United States. WALKED slowly back to the Avenue du Bois, trying to formulate plans. There was no clause in the lease I had signed permitting me to sublet, and anyway it was not completely furnished as yet, so that possibility was out of the question.

I would have to get bade to work as soon as possible. I had a letter from the dancer Marcel Idzikowski, recommending that I get in touch with the agents Howell and Baud on the Rue de la Paix. They were reputed to be the best agents in Paris the moment, taking only acts that they were satisfied could keep working steadily and that were up to their standards. I found them to be an interesting study in contrasts. Howell was a little English cockney who looked like a jockey, and Monsieur Georges Baud was a replica, of the miniatures of the Cardinal de Rohan in the Hotel de Sevres.

I have never seen such dignity and old-world courtesy: I very nearly expected him to whip out a lace handkerchief and take a pinch of snuff as we talked. Almost apologetically he asked for an audition, and after seeing me work, offered to procure my engagements if I would build some dances fh the acrobatic style so much sought after at the moment. Two days later he called me to his office to sign a contract with the big German Circus Busche playing a three-month route through Budapest, Vienna, Munich, Zurich, Frankfurt, Breslau, Hamburg, and Stockholm. (To Be Continued)! pjyij ib Austria, for he had received some disturbing news about mothers health from the doctor. In spite of this, she insisted on running about with some operatic people who were trying to promote a company of Swedish operas.

LEFT for Salzburg at once and found mother at the Schweitz-erhof Hotel, surrounded by a group of actors, singers, and musical phenomena. When I spoke to her about her health, contrary to other occasions when she had complained so bitterly ab'out it, she would not discuss it or give me any idea of what the doctor had told her. I saw clearly that she suspected me of having come to Salzburg for the express purpose of preventing her from getting involved with any more engagements that might require traveling. I told her plainly that I expected her to take life quietly and live in the apartment I had worked so hard to acquire, where she could have proper rest and comfort and sing in concert or at the Ope: Comique work that I felt would not harm her health. But it as not until the fourth of June that I finally managed to get her started for Paris.

In the meantime, I had received a letter from my beautiful little cousin, Pepita. She was in Paris and broke, having got herself into a series of difficulties. She had been working at the Coliseum in London with the Dia-ghilev company but djnot tell me how she came to be without a job. When we arrived in Paris, there she was installed at our hotel! I took Pepita with me to the half-empty apartment and made her understand that for once in her lazy young life she was going to earn her board bill and help me get the place finished so that mother could move in at the end of the week. This we did suc We will sell at Public Auction on the John McKinley farm, 1 miles south of M.

Do not postpone a disagreeable task: Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are well able to overcome it.

Numbers 13:20. it All depends NowJiat the war has ended and the government has tinned Montgomery Ward back to its owners, President Sewell Avery announces that he will take up his light against the closed shop again and the union announces that it will strike. Excellent arguments can be advanced against the closed shop and Avery has advanced them in a convincing manner. He can pull out all the stops, turn on the tremulo, and bring tears of indignation to your eyes as he strikes, the chord of human liberty and the. right of a man to work without paying "tribute to a union.

On the other hand, The Register, a tiny enterprise in a country town, has managed to operate un-' der a closed-shop union agreement for some 40 years and has never yet called upon to assail the ar-, rangement as being unfair to new employees or a hindrance to their employment. In the past month, in fact, two new. printers have been employed. OnAiad worked here a year or so before; the other was entirely new. Both are returned service men.

Both are starting their apprentice- ship to the printers trade, i The procedure in hiring them was no different from hiring a new reporter or Janitor." They applied for the jobs, were able to prove their qualifications and competence and were hired. Period. They paid 'not a cent of union initiation fee. They didnt ask union permission. Tfre door was wide open and they in.

After a trial period of a year they must register as union apprentice members, and at that time a union committee will test them for competence. But if they are competent a matter which is of even importance to management than to the union they must be admitted to membership. And aft-; er the apprenticeship is served, they must become union members in or-! der to continue working in this istyop. But even this is a privilege as well as an obligation because their union card is a certification of training and competence and will always make it easier for them to get a Job wherever they go. I cant see anything so terrible "about this arrangement.

In fact, I cant see that liberty and the right to work' are involved at all. Union strength, and 'solidarity are protected by the closed-shop arrangement, which is what the union wants. iBut it seems to me that the individual, is still as free as he MORAN, Oct. 25 Mr. Kleyman spent Wednesday in Kansas City buying merchandise for the Kleyman variety store.

The season Michailovitch was successful but not as exciting as tne one before in which I had founded my own company. After eight months I began to feel a little disgusted with the type of show I was doing it had been pot-boiling, and I knew it and wanted to work at something for my own satisfaction. So I headed back to Paris.

I had long dreamed of taking an apartment with mother, and had even written to her from South America about it explaining how I proposed to rent and keep it up, providing she would live there with me and share expenses. She had agreed to everything I had suggested, and I now set out to look for one. After searching the entire city in the company of an impressive personage from TAgence dlm-meubles, with a silky black beard, a briefcase, and an umbrella, at last I found what I wanted on the Avenue de Bois du Boulogne, now called the Avenue de Marechal Foch, a stones throw from the Bois and the Port-Dauphin. It was a large apartment opening on its own tiny garden with a gate leading into the street behind, and next to a garage. There was a delightful round room for mother and her piano, with another enormous salon for my own work.

The whole place was ideal. Mother wrote from Vienna that the place sounded wonderful in every respect, and she would be looking forward to living there. I immediately signed the lease and started looking for furniture. Then, without warning, came a letter from my brother that worried me very much. He begged me to come at once turned to their home after a visit here with Mrs.

Zollars father, W. W. Lam and family. Another daughter, Mrs. Finis Rogers, from California, accompanied her sister, Mrs.

THE EXPENDABLE ROAD The Stilwell Road has been abandoned because, according official announcement, it cannot be maintained economically in peacetime.

Short 'months ago the Stilwell Road was--the scene of a heroic struggle against time, nature and the enemy. Men sweated and cursed, fought the jungle and the japs, bled and died to open this lifeline to blockaded China before the Japs should break through the weakening Chinese resistance. Now the Stilwell Road is expendable. The jungle will reclaim it, and the world will gradually forget the effort and lives that went into its construction. It is surplus property like the engines of war that rolled over it, produced in such profusion and now obsolete and uneconomical.

But though the Stilwell Road piay its story forms part of a tragic history that cannot be. obliterated. It is the history written in every war of lives and work and money spent in prodigal extravagance, of costs that cannot be counted and waste that must be ignored, of things supremely necessary in war and utterly worthless in peace. It is, in short, just one more example of the wasteful, exhausting stupidity of war as an instrument of national policy a fact which mankind is so familiar with that it can never quite believe it is really true. 25 YEARS AGO Items From The Register 8 October 26, 1920 Some of the ladies of the First Baptist church went to Chanute on the noon train to spend the afternoon with Mrs.

MASS INVITATION Milwaukee, Oct. 26. (AP). Kenneth Seitz, who is going to marry Sheila Benton, a Marquette university co-ed next month, is wondering about the 15,000 people who have been invited to the church where the wedding will take place. The Marquette Alumni publication published a story inviting homecoming grads to attend a memorial mass in Gesu church at 9 a.

m. November 3 the place and time for Seitzs wedding. The publication unintentionally invited the alumni to the church instead of to the chapel.

Evenings by Appointment. Phone 83 One Door West of Portland Hotel Horse and Buggy Stuff (By William Ackworth) A German lady who says she is a Good woman confesses admiration for Adolf Hitler. She says Adolf Was creditable but was ruined because he sought advice from unworthy and inferior men. According to this woman Hitler was a gentleman and her relations with him respectable. She declares his desires of the flesh were entirely normal.

As I was not born yesterday, I candidly ask how she found this out. I have never known a bad president, king or dictator who did not have a woman on the string; some of them had had two, four and six; one especially bad English king is said to have had a dozen mistresses bleeding him for money. Hitlers friend who is advertising his virtues is a musician. I was wondering the reason for her infatuation: in her interview she finally let it leak out. In one of her concerts he subsidized her to the extent of $40,000.

As Hitler was neither married nor respectable is is surprising he thought it necessary to fork over hush money. But men are that way; when in the clutches of a bad woman, few of them have any sense. It is doubtful if our politicians will ever again resort to the in-dispensible man trick in recommending a candidate for president. The Missouri farm boy who is president seems to be doing much better than his illustrious predecessor who was called indispensible as late as 1944. It is always being said how hard work kills people.

About the hardest working man I have ever known is John M. Overman: he is 94. Lately I went to see him; his hearing is as good as mine and his mind much' clearer. But I do not believe he ever smoked cigarettes or sat up half the night playing bridge. The magazine Time must often annoy famous men and fomen who get married.

In reporting a marriage Time never fails to say it is his fifth and her third. Owing to the paper shortage every editor is having to reject profitable advertising to satisfy the reader demand for sports news. I note my editor, like all the rest, is trying to satisfy those crazy about baseball and football, although it Is my belief he never reads a word of it himself. I am wondering if all editors arent wrong about baseball and football. I scarcely looked at the sports page since the papers Quit mentioning Babe Ruth the famous shortstop who often hit home runs when the bases were loaded.

During the recent world series I turned the radio' oh, hoping Babe Ruth was playing and would hit a home run. But he wasnt, and I turned the radio off. A man named Ed. Crump is boss of Memphis. I have much enjoyed his fight with a Nashville editor who says Crump is not The Memphis boss recently denpunced the editor in a letter to the paper: the letter contained a big word which sent the editor to the dictionary: while at the dictionary the editor also looked up crump.
