was arrested because he worked on
Sunday and another arrested after a
fight because he would not work on
Sunday. The sitution looked so com
pleX that Judge Huber and the prose
cutting attorney threw up the sponge,
the first case being nolle pressed ano
in the second the evidence was all
against them.
On Sunday a barber caused the arrest
of Frank Deem on the charge of work

case came up for trial yesterday it was

one was wrong the other must be right,

ASK FOR SAME
AS LAST YEAR
Convention of Owners and Workers
Will Be Held in June is the News
Brought Home By East Chicago
Delegates - Exaction of Deposits
With State is Taken Up.
lsnecia1 to TIE T1MEsD

East Chicago. Ind. May 2o.-The
delegates from the local lodges of the
Amalgamated Association Of Iron, Tin
and Steel workers have returned from
Detroit. where the annual national con-
vention of the organization has been
in session for two weeks. The most
important question under considera-
ton was that of the wage scale for
the ensuing year.
This, after being passed upon by the
Amalgamated association. is brought
before the annual convention of own
ers and workers and it was decided
that the scale asked for this year would
be the same as prevailed last year. as
applying to the mills in this region.
The 10 per cent raise as announced in
certain eastern mills. of which the re-
public is a branch, applies only to SAL
/ aried men and the men in the local
Republic mill are paid on a tonnage
basis.
The convention Of owners and work
ers will take place in June. when the
scale will most likely be adopted.
Another matter that came up for con-
sideration was the question Of the prob
ability OF state legislatures interfering
with the insurance features of the or
ganizations. A movement has been
started in certain states to exact a
: deposit with the state treasurer in be-
! half of the insurance department of
fraternaI and labor organizations. Pro
visions were made to combat this ar
rangement If it should show any dis
position to become general
