TURBINE LINER HAS
A VALUABLE CARGO
Captain Greene Talks by Wire

That Are Coming Here

The Japanese turbine liner chiyo
Maru, true. to the wireless promise
flashed through the air last Friday.
was at anchor off Meiggs wharf early
yesterday morning. With most steam
ers keeping a promise involves haste
With the Chiyo, however, it would
have been easier to make port Sun
day afternoon, as the turbine engines
are in happiest mood when going full
speed. Under the circumstances Cap
tain Greene was just as proud of his
days II hours from Honolulu as he
was OF the AZ days of the Chiyo' s
maiden voyage.
The Chiyo brought I05 passengers
and 2.esl tons OF cargo. The cargo
included 504 bales of raw silk. 1887
rolls of mating and 1926 mats of rice.
Among the passengers were many Jap
anese tourists on.their way around the
world 10 see the sights and pick up
ideas. which will be amplified later on
to the glory of the island kingdom.
The passengers included a number of
United States navy officers, who have
been on duty on the Asiatic station.
Commander NJ. Johnston OF the navy,
who came home on the Chiyo, is on
his way TO the Bremerton navy yard.
On March % Captain Greene cele-
brated his fortieth birthday, in honor
of which Chief Steward Ashman deco
rated the dining saloon with sham
rocks grown in Japan and preserved
in the Chiyo's cold storage for the
occasion.
Captain Greene was in communica-
ton by wireless with the Aso and
the Soyo, the Japanese cruisers that
will be here April %. Admiral Ijyichi
requested Captain Greene to arrange
with the harbor master at Honolulu
for the stay at the island port of the
training squadron.

OHIO DAIRYMEN TOOK
PATTERN AFTER UNIONS

Dairymen living near 'Gincin-
natl organized a union not long
ago. They didn't call it q union j;
the name they gave it was "The
Tri-State: Dairy Farmers asso-
ciation.''
About the first thing they did
after organizing the union was to
order a strike. 1t was this way.
AS a result Of the high cost Of
feed and the strict sanitary laws
enforced in Cincinnati they
found that they could not exist
any longer at the price they were
being paid for milk. =.
They tried to get better terms
from the Milk Dealers assoeia-
ton. 1t was no go. The associa-
ton ignored the dairymen 8 let
tiers. When v this happened the
Tri-State Dairy Farmers associa-
ton instructed it's members is
discontinue shipping milk to the
Cincinnati III ma market. All stopped
but three. :. ~ -, i. 3. @z#3s.

At that time the price paid for
! milk 81 y: was v $1.3o per hundred
pounds. The dealers finding
t the gel. lives Vt up against it, were
read nough now to make terms.

Instead Of paying $1.30 they Of
fered to pay $1.86. Shipping was
resumed at this price. i
And the best Of it is that the
price to the consumer in the city
was. not raised. It was as high
as the public would stand al
ready. ..>,.= .. -. ~ <"
The difference between $1.30
and $1:86 went into the farmers
pockets and they were enabled to
furnish better handled and ne
cessarily purer milk at the
higher price. It pays dairymen
to organize and. to be loyal to
their union.
=. Noting the success Of the
movement which put 100000 a
year into the pockets Of the
dairymen interested, it is now
proposed to organize national
association. The secretary Of the
Tri-State Dairy Farmers associa-
ton writes: fDairymen can see
what a mere local movement did
for them, and can imagine how
a national movement Of this
kind would benefit dairymen. Let
us join hands and work towards
this goal, when we can have an
organization to look after our in
terests the same as the great
labor organizations. -

WILL. CLAIM
VICTORY FOR THEM

Now that the trouble between
the Douglas Shoe company and
the Boot and Shoe Workers. I'M
ion has been settled, and the men
have been victorious, we are anx-
iously awaiting what some So
called labor papers will have to
say on the subject. Those papers,
who, Judas Iscariot like, accepted
their thirty pieces Of silver in the
shape Of advertisements, as
an excuse for, so doing inaugural
ed cowardly, attacks on the mo-
tives Of President Tobin Of the
Boot and Shoe Workers. union,
in ordering the men to cease work
until their grievances were adj
justed.
: Whatever may: be their remarks
upon. the most important Of or
ganized labor's battles, they can
not say that they were in any way
responsible for The mems victory,
Tor those zrene8 ads labor papers,
surely rendered the manufactur.
ers heroic assistance by giving
publicity to goods that were made
under unfair conditions.

TRADE UNIONISM HAS
NO CHIP ON SHOULDER

Trade unionism is opposed to
industrial warfare and would set
tie all labor disputes by peace
full means of arbitration. Not
only is it opposed to industrial
war, but to all other forms Of war
as well. It is not too much to say
that organized labor has always
thrown it's strength and exe-ted
itself in the interest Of peace,
while the same claim can never be
made in the slightest degree: for
capitalism. At every Labor cons
gress resolutions are adopted in
opposition to militarism and in adj
vocacy Of peace; fraternal rela-
tions with the working men Of
foreign countries are cultivated,

WOULD THE INSURANCE
COMPANIES HAVE PAID?

In the state Of Maryland in the
vicinity of Baltimore a gang Of
linemen were putting up poles
and stringing wires for a tele-
phone or telegraph company.
In the gang were several non
union men whom the union men
on the job were endeavoring to
secure as members Of the cleo
trical workers organization.
One young man was finally
persuaded and signed an applica-
ton form and paid one dollar on
account Of three he was to pay
as an initiation fee. He was to
appear at the next regular meet
ing and be installed as a member,
but few days after, while on a
pole, he touched a live wire and
was electrocuted.
The local held an emergency
meeting and decided that, al
though the young man was not
actually a member, he would
have been had he lived, and they
took the will for tho deed and
gave him the same funeral bene-
fits he would have been entitled
to had he been a member: Of the
Brotherhood, and sent his mother
$50 after the funeral expenses
were paid. - s ;':*
What insurance society or fra
ternal organization would do
this?
1t is usually the case that they
seek technicalities to avoid pay
ment of death claims if there is
possibility of doingso. But there
is a brotherhood spirit in the
trade union movement that ever
extends a helping hand to the
deserving member in life and
even in death.

UN0RGAN1ZED WORKERS
INDEPENDENCE A MYTH

There are men outside the
ranks of organized labor who re-
fuse to join because, as they say,
"they want to work where they
will, when the will, when they
want to, as long as they want to,
and for what they want to. :"
They greatly prize their indie
pendence.
Some of these men are accept
ing the hours and wages created
by organized labor without as
s!sting in any way to further the
cause Of organized labor.
The man who insists that he
will not join a labor union be-
cause he wants to work where,
when, as long and for what he
wants to, is joker. Where can
a man be found who can do it
A man is compelled to earn
his living where and when, and
at such terms as he can secure
it. His boasted independence is
a mere wordy vapor:
Organized with his fellows, he
has an opportunity to have q say
regarding his own labor, but
alone he is, as helpless as a sap
ling on a moor in tempest.
+ Many good man outside Of or
ganized labor clings to this idea
Of personal advantage, which he
believes he would lose if he
joined a union. 4.
