Union
Makes CHARGE

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Sworn
statements and other documentary ev-
idence to support the charges against
the United States Steel corporation
by the American Federation of Labor
Wickersham today The evidence fol-
lows the petition of the organization
to President Taft, who referred the
whole matter to the attorney general.
Aside from alleging the corporation
exists in restraint of commerce and
trade, the federation's chief complaint
is it has used various means to pre-
vent labor organizations working
among it's employees.
Affidavits of organizers, deposing
they have been beaten and ordered out
Of places where the corporation has
mills, are attached to the statement
as exhibits. Others declare labor Of
ficers have been unable to hire halls
in which to hold meetings and have
been intimidated by local police in
steel districts, all of which is charged
to officers of the steel mills by a SER
les of sworn statements One instance
is cited, where it is alleged employees
of a steel mill at North Vandergrift,
Pa, were ordered not to buy ice cream
of a man VINO had rented a hall to
organizers, and the man was forced
out of business.
Part of the argument is an effort
to show the steel corporation exists
in violation of the Sherman law and
certain provisions of the Wilson tar
iff act The corporations ownership
of coal and ore lands is said to be
part of a monopoly: it is charged with
having crushed transportation COM
petition on the great lakes and in some
instances on the railways. Its acqui-
sition of the Tennessee Coal & Iron
company is condemned.
Many charges are brought against
the corporations town Of Gary, Ind,
where the statement says a monopoly
Of all necessaries of life is complete
and arbitrary prices are charged for
everything.

Waiting Attitude
Shown in Stocks

NEW YORK, March 22.-The stock
market today persisted in it's waiting
attitude. The undertone was strong
and until the last hour the demand,
light as it was, was filed on rising
scale in prices. This is in conson-
ance with the conviction of the habit
ual traders in stocks that prices are
entitled to an advance when ''the sap
begins to rise" tempered by consid-
Grafton of possible complications in
the money market on teh first of the
coming month.
Scantiness of supplies of stocks of
fering for sale was an undeniable
factor today, which facilitated the eff
forts of the professionals to move
prices upward on the light accum-
ulations. Foreign markets were about
as apathetic as that here and the
causes of the dullness were pretty
fairly common to them all. Besides
the April 1 money settlements, pause
is in order preceding the coming holi-
day efforts. Such news as came to
hand was interpreted in a sense ia
vorable to securities. The average
prices of 1928 realized for the New
York City 3 IA per cent bonds proved
higher than was expected at yester-
days close. The new bonds were dealt
in when issued" at prices above the
list in the outside market yesterday
and the older issues all made frac-
tional recoveries. The proportion of
the issue taken by foreigners was es-
timated by competent authorities
amongst the international bankers at
as high as 25 per cent of the total.
This would mean supply of foreign
exchange to an amount of more than
$12, 100000, an important contribution
to the needs of the debit balance Of
New York
Statements attributed to western
railroad officials kept up confidence
in a settlement of the dispute of those
companies with their locomotive fire
men. Following the adjustment of
the Baltimore & Ohio difficulty, this
new success of the government med
iators would 'be accepted as assurance
against other disputes. The Gompers
manifesto against the United States
Steel Corporation and the New Haven
strike later unsettled this confidence.
The coppers were firm in expecta-
ton of the adoption of the Anaconda
plan at tomorrow's meeting. Reports
that the Canadian tarig negotiation
was working out favorably were help
full in sustaining prices. The tone of
foreign exchange held firm in spite
of foreign subscriptions to the New
York City bonds. Rates for time
money were shaded.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales

CONGRESS TALK

WASHINGTON, D. c., March %
When one of the eldest Inhabitants
Of this burg, or ore who has resided
here sufficiently long to call himself

congress is about to enact legislation
to regulate the railroads he emits a
racuaus guffaw. The cause of his
merriment is the absuro>.y of con-
gress attempting to regulate the raj,

when it cannot regulate the street

Barnes Anderson. True, 70 ks outside

of him until he rendered that famous
decision in the Panama libel case, but

brated decision and the Standard Oil

not bad enough to be fined the $29,-
100000 Judge Lands imposed is said
10 be after him for one of it's attorn-
eys. The Standard, although it has
o brilliant array of legal talent to fall
back upon, would do well indeed if
it could add Judge Anderson to the
list. But it would have to be an in
ducement we'll worth while to make
him leave the bench he so dearly
loves, and on which he has made a
splendid record for himself Few men
upon the federal bench have higher
standing as a calm and dispassionate
jurist. His opinions are frequently
colloquail in form. After deciding the
case, it often happens that he will talk

and the steps by which he reached it;
and later on prepare the formal opin-
icn COR record And to the lay mind
his statement of reasons is usually
convincing.
In a mid way he is an athletic sort
Of a person. He doesn't go in for
weight lifting or pole vaulting, but he
does keep himself in perfect trim by
long walks or by batting the little ball

designations is to take an armful of

frequents After he has charged his
mind with the authorities beoring on

Upon returning to the clubhouse he
sometimes jots down the principal

postpones this until after he has talk

studious, energetic man he retains the
attitude of the jurst off the bench as
we'll as on. One of his ro,es is to
refuse to discuss an opinion he has

Mrs. Netcher spends six or seven hours

is secluded In her private office. But a
day never passes that she doesn't take a
walk through the store to see for herself
just how things are going.
She dresses inconspicuously but as taste

she receives in her office just as gracious

Yet right in that quiet Office and in
that quiet way Mrs. Netcher puts through
business deals that would make most dry
goods merchants gasp. She keeps a sharp
lookout on the market. II there's a good
chance at a cash discount she doesn't

for a line Of goods, incloses a draft for

ITALIANS WIN OUT
OWING TO OLD TREATY

NEW YORK, Nov. IAN international
treaty negotiated between Italy and the
United States 10 years ago has been res
directed here by the Italian consui-gen-
eral for the purpose OF keeping open a
hundred moving picture theaters owned
by Italian residents of the east side.
The last session of the state legisla-
ture passed a law restricting picture
licenses to American citizens only. AS a
result about 100 Italians were notified
that they would have to close up their
places of business. The Italians at once
complained to the Italian consul-general
at New York. He found that the
treaty of 1871 between the two countries
gave to all italian subjects in this coun-
try the same rights to personal property
as American citizens. This, he claim
ed, invalidated the new law so far as il
pertained to Italians. His claim has
just received the official o. X. Of the
city's legal experts.

And yet with all her gigantic business

THE FAT FROM THE FLOWER.

There is not a single kind of animal
food which we might not replace with
a vegetable counterpart. In most cases
it is merely a matter of choice which is
preferable, the animal or the vegetable.
In the matter of cooking fats, however,
the vegetable has by far the advantage.
Lard IS made from the fat Of hogs
often impure and unclean, always indi-
yestible. Cottolene comes from the cot
on fields of the Sunny South. 1t
makes food that can be digestcd with
ase, even by invalids. Cottolene is rec
.nmended alike by physicians and noted
boxing experts as much more healthful
I'D desirable than lard.
