COLOR OF BADGE
SIS DELEGATE
Caatlaa.4 Proas First Past*
wigjtMteii That wouldn't do, I told him,
»s it is the aristocratic i*olor. You
hstoe all heard of blue-blooded aristo
crats. Theu res! was suggested, but
I said everybody would think that was
Jim Maurer's color; and yellow
wouldn't do because the Irishmen
might object. Then we centered on the
little white 'badge wo wore two years
ago when we came over to the Legisla
ture and appealed for a child labor bill.
That's why we finally selected the
white emblem. The committee, howsver,
will bear the suggestion of the delegate
from Philadelphia in mind when it se
lects the next badge.''
Seeks Aid Against Prohibition
Prosvestle said that nine states now
have prohibition laws either by legis
lative enactment or by popular vote,
back of which in each instance is the
big manufacturer.
"Many men will be thrown out of
jobs in 1916,'' he continued, "anil
these men will be your competitors in
other lines of labor. They cannot
starve." 11
He said the question of temperance
in Pennsylvania is nigh and asked the
co-operation of organised labor in fight
ing prohibition, lie told of a proposed
organization for Pennsylvania to be
known as the Trades Union Übertv
lx'ague, which, he said, will fight from
the trades uniou standpoint only.
In his annual address to the conven
tion President Maurer briefly touched
on the activities of the year, discussing
his charges against the State Constabu
lary growing out the Hazleton trolley
strike in June. He said later of the
State Constabularv:
"In the overwhelming defeat of the
bill to increase the State Constabu
lary we get undoubted evidence of its
growing unpopularity with the masses
and that the time is not far distant
when these publicly paid defenders of
corporate arrogance will be totally
abolished."
| Ho told of the work of the Depart
, ment of Labor & Industry ami coin
mended Commissioner John Price .lack
.son. He said that Pennsylvania had
suffered mure than any otiier state in
the Union, outside of New York, be
cause of th t > industrial conditions of
| the last year, but showed a net gain of
| oighty organizations affiliated with the
Pennsylvania Federation in that time.
l\ P. Quinn, secretarv-treasurer, re
ported a balance of $498.36.
Contest Over Seating Delegate
I A contest arose over the seating of
! Patrick Hanaway, of Pittsburgh, as a
j delegate when the credentials committee
I reported. James Charlton, of Pitts-
J burgh, in open convention, charged
Hanawav with tampering with a bollot
; box used in a referendum vote and
changing the result of the vote. Hana
| way, however, was seated as delegate
by a vote of 127 to 38 when the report
of the committee was adopted. Tho
committee held that it hail no jurisdic
tion in the case and that it was a
matter for the local union to settle.
President Maurer reported that the
executive committee, together with tho
railroad committee, would appear be
fore the Governor at 4 o'clock this aft
ernoon to ask for a veto of the full
crew repealer. James Cronnn made a
brief report of the hearing before the
Senate committee on the workmen's
compensation bill, saying that Attorney
Oer.eral Francis Sluink Brown, who ap
peared in behalf of the bill, is the best
labor champion to appear since the
work for compensation was started.
Elmer E. Greenawalt, former presi
dent of the State Federation, now Im
migration Commissioner in Philadel
phia, spoke of his work in connection
with the interests of labor, saying that
the number of aliens coming to this
country through Philadelphia is now re
duced to almost nothing. The conven
tion adjourned at noon to meet again
at 2 o 'clock.
WALKING FOR HEALTH.
The Pedomttar Habit Is a Splendid On*
to Cultivate.
A famous Now York doctor was call
ed upon some months ago by a pAlent
who presented au appearance of 111-
' ness, but with whom he could flud ;
nothing the matter. Questioning dls- ;
, closed the fact that he had not taken
j regular physical exercise for years,
j "That's your trouble," remarked the
wise physician. "I'll write you a pre
scription." When he got outside the
ofllce the patient opened the bit of .pa*

By Anociated Prrts.
New York, May 12 (Wall Street).
—Normal conditions prevailed during
to-day's early nlealings in the stock
market. The undertone was steady,
with narrow price changes in war spe
cialties, like Bethlehem Steel, Amer
ican Locomotive and Westinghouse,
which rose 1 to almost 2 points. U. S.
Steel opened a very slight advance, but
soon reacted, this course being fol
lowed later by other active issues, in
cluding Amalgamated Copper, Reading
and Canadian Pacific. Local transac
tions were strong. Trading was light
and obviously professional.
Business fell away in marked manner
after the first hour, but prices recov
ered from their early declines. Inter
borough common was the most active
feature of the trading. Public interest
was at a low ebb and the professional
element held off when word came from
Washington that the President had de
cided upon a policy in connection with
the sinking of the" Lusitania.

Palace Theatre To-day
The sixth episode of the Universal
Special Feature Serial, "The Black
Box," in which Herbert Rapilinson as
Sanford Quest and Anna Little as Le
nora enact the leading roles, is show
ing to-day at the Palace theatre. It
relates the further thrilling
of Quest, who is about to learn Le
nora's hiding place from Craig when
a fire compels both men to escape down
a rope ladder. Lenora finally escapes
from her attic prison and Laura is re

BRITISH PRESS COMMENT ON
THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH
London, May 12.—Most of the
morning papers fail to comment edi
torially on President Wilson 'a Phila
delphia speech. The "Standard," how
ever, praises the address and says the
President "has ahown during these
trying weeks of German insults a
moral courage of the highest order."
"It is rather satisfactory," the
"Standard" continues, "to note the
calm and pacific tone of President Wil
son 's first public, titteraneo since the
disaster, for no interest jof ours would
bo served by America's eutrance into
the war, and such a development might
in many wavs inure to the enemy'»
advantage.'
"The "Express" offers the opinioa
♦ hat the speech was too idealistic, and
adds:
"We understand, of course, that te
turn the other cheek requires exalted
courage, 'hut it is unfortuuato eueh a
course is absolutely certain to load to
more suffering. Germany has taken th«
world back to tho fourteenth century;
President Wilson is eager to drag us
before our time into the twenty-second.
Nobody in this country however, haa
any desire that the United States be
involved in thin war unless impelled
by its own pride."
The "Mail" prints a column of in
terviews with prominent Americans in
London, all expressing disappointment
that the President's Philadelphia ad
dress did not include a forceful de
nunciation of Germany 'a action.

SYMPATHY FROM JAPAN ON THE

Tokio, May 12!— The Japanese gov

the United States messages of sym
pathy upon the loss of life in the Lusi

The press of the country bitterly
arraigns Germany for the sinking of
the passenger ship. The Asahi Shim
bun characterizes it as a "massacre
of innocents," certain to excite the
righteous indignation of Americans.
Other papers declare the tinto has eome

THE WORLDCOURTCONGRESS
Meeting at Washington Significant in
Connection With Part America
May Play as Neutral
By Associated Press,
Cleveland, 0., May 12.—The con
vening of the World Court Congress
here this afternoon for a three days'
session is at the "psychological mo
ment," according to officers at the con
gress.
"The part America as a neutral will
play in the final settlement of the war
will be important," says John Hays
Hammond chairman. "If the United
States, as the mutual friend of the
warring nations, is able to point the
way to an effective international court
of justice, there is every reason to be
lieve the belligerents will be willing to
accept it. The object of this congress
is, first, to arouse the American public
to a consciousness of the possibilities in
such a tribunal and congress. The time
is ripe."
If preliminary plans are carried out,
the congress will take no steps that
would gain for it the name of "peace
congress.'' The Lusitania incident will
be ignored and means for ending the
war will not be discussed. Plans for
the development of an international
court will receive the sole attention of
tho speakers, who include former Presi
dent Taft, Judge Alton B. Parker, John
Mitchell and many others nationally
prominent.
To-day's program included noon
luncheon, a reception and afternoon
and evening sessions. Mr. Taft's ad
dress was set for the evening. He was
scheduled to arrive at noon.
