the trouble breeder
(By Wickes Winiboldt)
Not long ago a New Jersey war
den refused to admit to jail a man
who had been sentenced because a3
a previous inmate he had had a ver>
disturbing influence on the other
prisoners.
I have heard lots of trouble breed
ers and while I have thought jail
would be a good place to put them,
yet it never occurred to me before
that this would not be fair to the
other prisoners.
We all know trouble breeders.
They are to be found among both
sexes and they are one of the great
est menaces to the harmonious rela
tions of mankind. 1 do not know
whether it is a form of insanity or
whether it is a weakness or just
pure cussedness, but the main ob
ject of the trouble breeder is to stir
up strife, discord and discont^d,
wherever he or she may be located.
One young woman I have in mind.
S) e is a charming conversationalist.
She is good to look at. She has un
failing good humor. And she is alto
gether delightful to meet, but look
out for her. She is the kind that
comes to you and says laughingly,
“So and so is the funniest person I
ever ipet. in joy life. Tie does get off
the Cutest {Jiings. Ffe just said that
when you walk each foot says to the
other, ‘You let me by this time and
I will let you by next time."’
Then I know a young man. He
comes to you as your friend and de
fender. He is very angry at a cer
tain person who has just said you
are so lazy the only reason you are
walking around is to save funeral ex
penses.
then there is the individual wno
comes to you wearing a judicial
mein an dtells you what someone has
said about you because he thinks you
ought to know it.
Again we have the person who
never says anything you can lay
hold of but resorts to vague and dis
turbing suggestions. He says, “I
would be careful what I say before
her,” or “Don’t depend upon him too
much as a friend.”
Then there is the twister who
takes some innocent, remark of your#
and distorts it until you would not
recognize it and passes it on to some
one wltb does not speak next time to
you meet.
They work in nil kinds of ways—
these people do. There is the one
who comes to you and gets your
confidence and who then uses this
confidence to spread poison. This
person will tell you with the most
confidential air what he thinks
about all Uie disagreeable things
he picks out in some absent per
son’s character—traits which you
know are there. He will ask you if
you have noticed them. Perhaps hav
ing a*pr*de in your kee'mlfess of per
cept*“-^t>u will admit that you have
noticed these things—then he trots
away and says you have said to him
all the things he said about you.
I tell my acquaintances that when
an uncomplimentary remark is re
peated to me I consider the repeater
is the real insulter. The person who
said it originally did not intend me
to hear it. He was just blowing off
steam. Perhaps he had indigestion
and was mad at somebody. He might
think a good deal of me and would
net hurt my feelings yet on some
impulse when I was not present he
would rantt, out about something I
bed done he did not like. But he
would not have said it to me for any
hing in the world. Not because he
as afraid, but because _he did not
rish to offend me. Therefore I con
der the onfe who carries the tale is
>e reaT offender end is the one to
horn any resentment should be djf

MACON, GA., ON ITS EARS
Macon, Ga., August 16 —People of

The backfirings sounded like a bat

recent. kidnappings and whippings
and Macon people being in a nervous
state, expecting almost 'anything
feared for the worst.
Trio Of Nationally Known Men
Analyze Evils Of Coal Industry;
Stress Need For Stable Labor
I- «)IK J> .IMJllULiHiMmiHBMBMHl
COL. OUT D. GOFF
Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard; Colonel
Henry L. Stimson, former Secretary
of War, and Colonel Guy D. Golf,
former Assistant Attorney General
of the U pi ted States, are among the
men to whom the National Coal As
sociation, in an aggressive move
ment to stabilize the bituminous
coal industry and increase its value
to the public, has applied for advice.
Dr. Eliot in a comprehensive let
ter addressed to the organization’s
annual convention at Atlantic City,
stressed the importance of arbitra
tion of disputes by non-partisan
agencies, a tenet to which operators
claim they have long held. Dr.
Eliot advocated the incorporation of
all unions that relate to the coal
industry.
COL. HENRY L. STIMSON
"In the public interest,” he wrote,
“it is' inexpedient that these seeret
societies, which, collect large sums,
of money from their members, and
use all their resources to support
strikes, however violent, should con
tinue to be exempt from the usual
legal processes to prevent violations
of contract and enforce payment of
damages.”
Colonel Stimson stressed the need
of constructive leadership and uni
fied front in self organization and
self discipline in the public’s in
terest.
Colonel Goff emphasized the im
portance of basic considerations in
the coal labor problem to the whole
problem of. American social and eco
nomic development. An attempt is
being made, he declared, to change
DR. CHARLES W. BLIOT
the form of American trade unions
into industrial unions u
wedge toward compellfng the mT.
jority in America, or a militant and
effective minority, to accept the
doctrine of communism.
Investigations conducted by the
Bituminous Operators’ Special Com*
mittee, appointed to cooperate with |
the United States Coal Commission,.
have found that labor is one of the
principal factors of the cost of
coal at the mine, amounting to 68.7
per cent of the total. The constant
interruption of the coal supply by
nation-wide strikes, made possible
by a growing monopolistic power on
the part of the United Mine Work
ers of America; is given as the chief
deterrent to a regular supply of coal
at satisfactory prices.
