VIE year I3l4 promises 10 usher
in an era of the most eXtraor-
binary financial considerations
in connection with athletics that this
country has ever known. Coaching
talent is to be rewarded with salaries
never before reached, and playing
talent in the professional baseball
ranks is signing contracts, due to
competition between the F'ederals and
the present league organizations, that
are likely to enrich the player beyond
any earlier dreams of aVarice which
may have entered into his calcua-
tons We have already commented
upon some of these, but the height
was reached when Speaker was sign
ed for two years at $35 900, and il
has been said that there was bonus
in addition to this. Comparisons are,
Of course, inevitable Already there
have been comments contrasting the
price paid for work in an athletic line
with work in an educational line, and
these promise to multiply One should
understand, however, and make the
proper discount in any comparisons
of this kind, for it is doubtful if those
exaggerated salaries continue. In
fact, picture the situation if the con-
test for players in professional league
ranks goes on forcing up prices so
that either side to hold a man has to
pay him not only $17,500 for a year,
but has to make a contract covering
a longer period of time than that,
What, also, will be its effect upon
other players? Truly, it is the age
for them to make as much as they
can but such policy in any business
is likely in the long run to kill the
goose that4ays the golden egg"

U. S. SUPREME COURT
HEARS CASE RE-ARGUED
NINE MEMBERS ON BENCH; DE-
CISIoN ExPEc1ED SOON
Believed the Court wasa Tie Over
Several Points at Issue and Justice
Lurton Holds Deciding Vote.

The contempt case against GomPcrs,
Mitchell and Morrison was rcargued be-
fore the Supreme Court OF the United
States Monday and Tuesday of last
week. The last argument was made on
January 7, 1914, with Justice Lurton alb
sent. The argument this week was be-
fore the full court.
The argument for the prosecution was
made by Attorneys Davenport and Dar-
lington. Mr. Davenport is attorney for
the Anti-Boycott Association; Attorneys
Parker and Ralston for the defense. No
reason was given for the court calling
for rcargumcnt, but il is the opinion
of many that the court Is divided on
some one or perhaps all Of the many is
sues involved, and IL was necessary to
have the nine members present SO that
decision could be reached.
Judge Wright and his colleagues OF tho
Supreme Court Of the District appealed
from the decision OF the District Court
of Appeals, which modified the sem
tence of President Gompers from one
years imprisonment to one month. OF
John Mitchell from nine months i'm
prisonmcnt to q fine OF $500, and of
Frank Morrison from six months impris-
onment to fine of $500. The defend
ants appealed from the modified sen
tenccs of the District Court of Appeals.
II is expected that n decision in this case
will be handed down Mt an early date.

COLPOYS SAYS ANTITRUST
LEGISLATION FAIR TO LABOR
BILL REPORTED IN HOUSE PRO-
TEcTs INTERESTS OF UNIONS.
One Section Prohibits Antitrust Law
from Applying to Certain Organiza-
tions as Now Conducted.

John B. Colpoys, secretary Of the
Washington Central Labor Union and
editor OF the Trades Unionist OF that
city, has the following editorial in last
weeks issue in reference to Labor ana
the Trusts" and what legislation may
be expected on the Sherman antitrust
law:
The Judiciary Committee of the
House has embodied its ideas and the
ideas of the President on the question
of antitrust legislation in bill that
was reported to the House during the
past week This is a part OF the pro-
gram of the Presidents as outlined in
his messages to Congress and from a
reading of the bill we are OF the pehei
that the interests of labor have been
amply provided for, and if passed as re-
ported from the committee the party in
power will have fulfilled its promises to
labor on the question of relieving IT
from the stigma that has been placed
on it by the judiciary in their construc-
ton of the Sherman act.
while this bill will not interfere
with the Sherman antitrust law IN SO
far as it relates to unlawful combina-
tions, it defines more clearly Just what
is meant by unlawful combinations, and
it also specifies in language that cannot
be distorted at the whim of the court
when and under what conditions re-
straining orders and injunctions against
labor can be granted by the courts. 1t
also provides for trial by jury in
cases growing out Of contempt proceed
ings, something that labor has been striv-
ing for these many years.
at is also emphatic on the very exist
ence Of labor unions in so far as they
can be declared illegal combinations, and
the following is the language used in
this bill:
"Sec. o. That nothing contained in the
antitrust laws shall be construed to
forbid the existence and operation OF
fraternal, labor, consumers, agricultural
or horticultural organizations, orders OF
associatians operating under the lodge
system, instituted for the purposes OF
mutual help, and not having stock OF
conducted for profit, or to forbid or re-
strain individual members of such orders
or associations from carrying out the le-
Qitimate objects of such associations
1--WE feel that at last, after struggle
of years, the prayers and applications
of the trades unionists are to be an
swcred and in the passage of this bill,
which we believe will become law at
this Congress, labor will be relieved OF
the necessity of spending their money in
fighting a hostile judiciary for the right
| to an existence"

s1cMAN CHARGED WITH MURDER
Vice President International Union Ar
rested on a Trumped-Up Charge.

A letter sent out by the defense com
mittee of the New York Cloak Makers
Union and the international Ladies'
Garment Workers Union tells of how
one of their officers and another ac-
tive member are being prosecuted.
Max Sigman, vice president of the In
ternational Ladies' Garment Workers.
Union and one of the most popular and
efficient organizers of the Cloak Makers
Union, and Morris Stupnicker an active
and devoted member of the organization,
have been arrested ON the charge of
murder in the first degree. The ndict-
ment charges the two men with having
been instrumental in the killing of a
cloakmaker by the name of Herman
Liebowitz, in connection with the genera!
strike OF 1910. The unfortunate man
was found unconscious on the Sidewalk.
He died without regaining consciousness
and the assailant remained unknown.
Now, after lapse of four wears, n
sudden attempt is made to fasten the
responsibility for the death of Liebowitz
OH the accused. The charge is absurd.
1t is based on a web of false evidence
manufactured by inscriptions Toes of
the Cloak Makers Union, and back of
the proceeding against Sigman and Stup-
nicker is the stirring drama of the mod
ern class struggle.
The Cloak Makers Union and the In
ternationa1 Ladies' Garment Workers
Union have made arrangements to secure
the best available legal talent for the
defense of the accused. No work and no
expense will be spared to clear them of
the dastardly charges and to nail their
perfidious accusers to the pillory OF
shame and public contempt. Ali garment
workers and all organized workers gen.
| orally should rally to the defense of the
accused and of the union.

LABOR men SCORE
FOR CHILD BUREAU
Defeat An Attempt to Cripple
Proposed Investigation
Congressman Keating Makes Vigorous
Speech for Giving Adequate Federal
Appropriation to Save Children

Blocking what appeared to be an at
tempt to prohibit an investigation of in
| FAINT mortality and dangerous occupa-
| tions, the labor group in the National
| House of Representatives won a decided
| and important victory when the appro-
priation for the Federal Children's Bu-
reau was under discussion. An amend
ment proposed by Representative John
son of South Carolina provided that
this appropriation shall not be expend-
ed for investigation that the public
health service is required or authorized
| by law to make and is making"
Representative Buchanan of Illinois, a
member of the labor group, resorted to
| every parliamentary trick to defeat this
amendment and heatedly declared it
would defeat the efficiency of the Child
Labor Bureau" On a vote this view
was accepted and the cleverly worded
| amendment was rejected.
Congressman Nolan of California,
member of the labor group, appealed
for the children. He said: THE Chill
drens Bureau during the first two fiscal
years OF its existence has had staff OF
Is persons. Its appropriation for sal
aries has been S25,640 per annum. In
addition to this it has no moneys ex.
cept two small allotments from depart
other for contingent expenses. Because
of the small funds at the disposal of
the bureau and the investigation intend
ed to eliminate conditions causing infant
mortality has been limited to single
small city, Johnstown, Pa"
Congressman Heating of Colorado
termed present conditions "a slaughter
of the innocents' and in urging a re.
lection of the committees report and
favoring Sl64 $40, the amount asked for
by the head of the bureau, Miss La
throp, the Western congressman, said:
Gentlemen may talk about extrava-
gance as much as they like, but | insist
that while the people of this country are
in favor of economy they are in favor
of the right kind of economy. A few
weeks ago We rushed through this
House, by unanimous consent, a bill ap-
propriating 100000 to stamp out hog
cholera. We would have made the APP
preparation s6,OOO,OO0 if the experts had
told us that by the expenditure of such
a sum they could save the lives of the
hogs of this country. | would have
voted for such an appropriation and
you would have voted for such an ap-
preparation, Mr.. Chairman. and the peo-
pie OF the country would have approved
of such an appropriation. If it is es.
sentlal to protect the lives OF the, hogs
of this country, how much more inpoi-
tant it is to protect the lives of the chill
dren of this country. The experts tell
us that each year 100000 children die
in this country before they attain the
age of one year. We are assured that
fully one-half OF this number OF deaths
are directly traceable to ignorance and
lack of care"
Never before did the halls of Con-
gress ring with such a plea for the lit
tie ones and in opposition to the COM
mittee's report, which favored only $685.

was rejected and the bureau was voted
the amount it requested.

GARMENT WORKERS ASSAn
GOVERNOR WITH HOT SHOT
RADICAL ACTION TAKEN BY UNION
OF OVER 400 WOMEN.
Demand That "Spineless, Heartless Sy-
cophant Occupying Office Of Gov
ernor" Resign Place Dishonored.

At rousing special meeting of the
Garment Workers Union, comprising
about 450 women workers, held in the
Club building, the most severe condem-
nation of Governor Ammons adopted by
any organization was passed by unan-
imous vote.
Following are the resolutions:
whereas, There exists at this time
in the coal fields OF southern Colorado
reign of terror inaugurated by the
human bloodhounds and brutal murder
ers employed by the coal barons of the
state and the heartless, money worship
ing Rockefeller; and,
..Whereas. These hell hounds are
clothed with the uniform OF the state
militia and the powers of the state with
full knowledge and approval of the gov
ernor of this state, who, like the craven
coward he is, fled from the state on n
flimsy pretext that he might not be
here when the diabolical plot of assassi-
nation and determination was to be car
ried out.
sWhereas, We firmly believe that tho
governor had full knowledge OF what
was to take place, as n man who would
order the arrest and confinement in an
underground dungeon of woman 81
years of age, innocent of any violation
of the law, would not hesitate at per-
mitting the shooting and burying alive
of defenseless women and innocent
babes by IL rum selling, soul-destroyinp
saloonkeeper and blasphemous mine
guard in command of the other murder
ers in the uniforms Of soldiers manning
Rockefeller rapid-fire guns and
using explosive bullets; therefore. be il
.'Resolved, That we, the members OF
the United Garment Workers Of Amer
let, local No. 1870, do demand of this
spineless, heartless sycophant occupying
and disgracing the office of governor OF
this state, that he do Immediately re-
sign the office he has so wantonly dis
honored; and, be it further
Resolved, That we tender our services
as Union Blue Cross nurses to the
United Mine Workers and all loyal men
engaged in this struggle against indus
trial tyranny"
