"Historical Kaiser Films" are shown everj'where for the same end.

The sentiments of these shortsighted monarchists are a far greater danger than al! the "hid den arms" that are so much talked about. In fact, there is no danger whatever in , any monarchist attack against the State, unless they can per suade others to follow them. Our neighbor nations who hold that this is a bad sign should ponder how long they can keep Germany expiating the sins of deposed, rulers and barred, out of the reconstruction of the world.

I he Shop Crafts have also brought action against the Chicago Great West- v... x.aiuuau uver tne contracting of car repair work at South Park, Minn. The toad has notified the shop unions ttiat unless they would agree to es tablishment of a piece-work svstem of pay, it would be 'necessary to place the repair work under a contractual oasis. Such action was not permissi ble under the National Agreement, by which the carrier, was bound until the recent new shop rules were promulgat ed by the board, n ployes contention. The board, however, declares it is fully within its right and says the auestion subject of dispute under the Trans- ijunanon Act. Nearly a year ago, the Indiana Har bor Belt Railway contracted with the Burnham Car Company to take over and operate its repair tracks, the rail road company retaining the car inspec tors under their supervision. The shop crafts unions now brins? nhier.H,-.v. k cause wages were reduced and some Y JlurK P'acea on a piece-work me umpns also claim that 17 men were dismissed as a result of the contract.
