Perhaps you have a mortgage against your place.
Maybe it is not due yetbut probably have an option
or right to pay the loan in full when you pay the
next interest.
If you are paying more than 60 now,dont wait for
the loan to become due, but see me about a new
loan before the next interest paying date.

American Mediation Informally Sug
gested By Fern, But Chile
Acquiescence is Awaited.
W'afihingtcm, June 8. An ap
proach toward American mediation
in the Chilean-Peruvian conference
here has been made informally by
Peru, but Chile's acquiescence In the
step is still awaited.
The tangled affairs of the confer
ence are understood to have been
laid before Secretary Hughes In de
tail by Ambassador Pezet for the
Peruvians, among whom It was said
tonight that the Chileans had ex
pressed their Intention of making a
similar move throush the Chilean
ambassador, Senor Mathieu.
OScials of the Chilean delegation
declared, however, that they recall
ed no such agreement, and that It
had not been decided whether an ex
ercise of "good offices" by Mr. Hnghes
shouli be suggested. Senor Mathieu
it was understood, so far bad made
no appointment to see the president.
In this situation the state depart
ment was silent, but officials indi
cated that no move by the Washing
ton government could be expected
until both sides had shown their
readiness for It. Should the Chileans
second the Peruvian suggestion, how
ever, the department is ready to
render whatever service It can to
avert an open break.
Ambassador Pezet's explanation of
the Peruvian side of the case to
Mr. Hughes is understood to have
been entirely informal, and to have
omitted any definite request for me
diation. At the same time, it is said
to have been strongly indicated that
Peru would welcome heartily the
friendly and Impartial aid of the sec
retary in breaking what appears to
many diplomatic observers to ap
proximate a conference deadlock.
Why Suffer from Rheumatism?
Do you know that nine out of
every ten cases of rheumatism are
simply rheumatism of the muscles or
chronle rheumatism, neither of which
require any internal treatment? The
pain may be relieved by applying
Chamberlain's Liniment thus making
sleep and rest possible, and. that cer
tainly means a great deal to any one
afflicted with rheumatism. Weyrich

UNION HEAR CRIT
ICIZES HARDING'S
LABOR POLICY
Says Workmen Bitter Against the
neavy Kr.nd of President and
O. 0. P. Administration-
Cincinnati. O.. June 7. The gov
ernment a an employer was taken
to task by Jame3 O'Conntll. presi
dent of the metal trades department
cf the American Federation of Labor,
v. ho in his report to the department's
annual meeting, complained of cer
tain acts of officials, including Presi
dent Harding, as hostile to labor.
"The policy of the administration
, na. w, n S 1 . w A A lfSY TYW till
said, "has been used with such tre- j
mendous force against the. employes j
of the government as to make work-,
men feel great bitterness and resent- I
raent for the heavy hand that has!
been laid upon them by the president
and his administration."
The government, Mr. O'Connell
asserted, should be the model em
ployer, but, he added. efforts of
labor officials "to maintain some
sort cf standard conditions of em
ployment" has been of limited suc
cess. The government officials, he
continued, "have been whoily unre
sponsive, and in many instances
pointedly antagonistic."
The report of Mr. O'Connell to the
metal trades meeting covered numer
ous subjects in addition to what he
said was the government's attitude
toward labor. He urged that govern
ment mechanical deaprtraents, which
he said had closed on account of
suspension of naval preparations.
should be piaced at work manufact-l
uring various articles needed by the
government. Such a plan, he as
rCrted "would reduce to the minimum
the possibility of peace-time profi
teering on the part of the govern
ment contractors."
Widespread unemployment. Mr.
O'Connell continued, had caused a
loss of membership among metal
trade unions and had aided employ
ers in reducing wages.
HiGH COURT OF
THE LAND IS ASSAIL
ED BY GOMPERS
Labor Leader Interprets Colorado
Decision as Negation of Rights
of Unions to Strike.
Cincinnati, June 9. Protests of
organized labor, as voiced here to
day at preliminaries for the annual
convention next week of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, centered
against the supreme court, the con
gress and state legislatures in gen
eral. Samuel Gompers, president of the
federation, in addressing a club of
business men, interpreted the su
preme court decision in the celebrat
ed Coronado coal case as a negation
of the right to strike, and declared
that organized labor would appeal to
congress for new legislation setting
aside the decision.
Will Not Dodge Fight
In criticizing the supreme court,
Mr. Gompers said that he expected
to be "taken strictly to account" for ,
his utterances, adding that "I do net
run away from a fight."
"But. it ha scome to a pretty pass."
he continued, "when an American!
citizen can no longer discuss and !
criticize the decision of the court.
Any one, if he feels so disposed, can
criticize even the president of the
United States or the United States

eration, by unanimous action, assail
ed congress and state legislatures as
enemies of labor, and declared for
labor's active preparation in the fall
campaigns in an effort to elect its

Unions Liable
In his speech Mr. Gomper3 said
the Coronado decision made interna'
tional unions, endorsing strikes, lia
ble for damages, and he asserted this
meant the unions must withstand
"constant litigation or get out of
business." . ...
"If yon compel men and women,
regardless of conditions," he contin
ued, "to work against their will, you
have re-established slavery. Some peo
ple seem to think now Is the time to
take advantage of the working peo
ple, reduce wages and break up their
organizations and under the 'open
shop weaken or destroy the unions."
In this connection, he warned
against "driving the bargain too
hard," asserting that a "day of reck
oning will come." and adding that
the organized workers are the "great
est stabilizing force." in the coun
try. Referring to rail union chiefs,
he said they prevented strikes, which
he said bad been desired by the un
ion members generally and he con
cluded with the expression of a hope
for the time when employers and
employes would solve their prob-l
lems at the conference table.- i
