AtiMicrdam, July 30. The work of
the International Trades 1'ntoti congress
yesterday was hindered by protracted
discussion in committee reRardlns the
German declaration of tl.c stand of Ger
man trades unionists during the war.
The Germans Renernlly maintained
an unrepentant attitude until Samuel
Gompcrs, president of the American
Federation of I.nbor, told them plainly
that if It were continued it would be
Impossible for workers of other coun
tries to retain relations with them in
the future. The German delegates
thereupon somen lint relaxed.
Thb lommlttce on its return reported
as follows:
That the statement of Herr Snsse
bach (German Socialist) be iniorporated
In full; that the regrets expressed there
in be registered; that the German dele
gatlon confirm frauklj nnd openij the
spirit of Sassenbach's declaration ; that
If the atonal be frank, open and satis
factory, the conference will proceed to
the order of the day ; that if unsatisfac
tory, freedom of action be resorted.
Against all expectations, the con
gress adopted the report without debate,
after Sassenbach in a few words con
, firmed the German docli ration. Sassen
bach, who wns a member of the com
mittee, refrained from toting. The
other members included AV. A. Apple

The German trades unions always
recognised that Germany acted wronglv

The German workers always had been
opponents of war and armaments nnd

The German workers recognize that

Simple Operations
Fitted Together
The business of Swift & Company is
the fitting together of many simple
operations.
No one thing in a packing business is
particularly difficult for men trained to
do it; but no one thing is enough.
Thousands of other operations, pro
perly performed, are necessary for the com
pleted processes. And some one must
fit together all these thousands of simple
operations.
The success with which a packing
business performs its function of supplying
the best possible meat products to the con
sumer with the greatest possible benefit
to both him and the producer depends upon
the energy, brains, experience and faith
ful effort of the men trained in the business.
Swift & Company turns the producer's
live stock into meat for the consumer at
a profit of only a fraction of a cent a pound,
because it fits these operations together
with the least waste, overlapping and
friction.
Do you beXsve government direction
could do it better?

Holding the Road at High Speed
Lighter than any other car of equal size The Holmes Improved Air
Cooled Car holds to the road better at high speeds.
Flexible" construction, the absence of rigid cross members in the frame,
full-el)iptic springs and perfect balance of weight keep the wheels to
the road.
The Holmes swings along in boulevard comfort at from 30 to 35 miles
an hour over roads where most cars cannot be driven at speeds to
exceed 15 to 20 miles an hour.
The flexible front end construction, made possible by the elimination
of the rigid construction necessary when a radiator is carried, accomo
dates the wheels to the road. The car is not bounced into the air by
road shocks.
The full elliptic springs with a wide easy throw assimilate the blows
from the road.
In swingingcorners the wheels stay on the ground with a firm tractive grip,
And yet with all this flexibility, the Holmes is unusually steady to drive.
Without the slight feelings of fatigue greater mileage can be covered
in a day than with any other touring car.
A gasoline consumption of 18-20 miles to the gallon, in the air-cooled
motor with aeroplane type valves, eighteen valves all in the head, a
tire service of 10,009 miles to the set, are proof that high operating cost
is no longer necessary in a large, luxurious touring car and that the
price of economy is no longer restricted carrying capacity and cramped
discomfort.
