As everyone knows. c. W. Post OF

maker Of breakfast foods. but he is

has been engaged In a ceaseless war

ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space f, sais
purpose, lust as he Is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum STORY"
and he has thus spent hundreds OF
thousands OF dollars in denouncing
trades-unionism.
As a result OF Posts activities the
psople now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
hcneycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development of legitimate
business, curtail labor's output. hold
sp manufacturers, graft upon their own
nembership. and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unionists. and intensely.
He employs no union labor. so they
can not call out his men. and he defies
their efforts at boyeotting his products.
The latest means OF getting" Post is
the widespread publication Of the story
that car which was recently wrecked

with empty peanut shells. which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi.
cago Federation of Labor, who, it is
said. stated IL publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fftz-
gerald the lie direct. He denounces
F1tzgerald's statement as a deliberate
taisehood, an underhanded and coward
