hard fighting during the months in
which they have battled their way into

Says Philippine Islands
Could Support Population
of Fully 4O,OOO.000 People

The Philippines are capable OF pro-
ducing enough food and wealth to sup
port comfortably 100000 people, &C
cording to President Waters of the
Kansas Agricultural College, who has
investigated agricultural conditions
and possibilities of the islands, copy
Of whose report has just been received IL
the bureau of insular affairs here.
AS compared with Japan. he says
that the Philippine farmers get only
one-fifth as much per acre; that whlle
worth of wealth annually on the 1000
600 acres in cultivation. the Jap
anese farmers produce 2,OOo,0oO,uOO
pesos worth of wealth on their 14,ooo,
900 acres.
Cane Sugar and Rice.
The Philippines would be the leading
cane sugar producing country in the
world, Cuba excepted, if the planters
raised as much per acre as do the planters
in Java, says President Waters. Fur
thermore, they would be the third largest
rice exporting country Il the Philippine
growers obtained as high acre Yields
as do those OF Japan or the United States
Again, the islands could support Il larger
pork and poultry industry than either
Canada or Australia if the yield OF corn
per acre edualed that OF the United States
or Japan.
While the people Of the Philippines pay
the farmers of Australia and India about
3,500,000 pesos annually Tor meat ana
work stock, one may ride for days through
grass up to the saddle sirths. says Presi-
dent Waters, without seeing herd Of
cattle or horses.
Wastes in the Islands.
He declares that study of the business
of the islands reveals many wastes, and
cites the fact that last year 100000
pounds OF saw sugar were sold at 1
centavos pound, all of which, or its
equivalent, was bought back again at
10 centavoS a pound, and again, that
with almost limitlesS forest resources,
more than 100000 pesos worth of lum-
Der was purchased from outside.

GARMENT WORKERS PACK HALL
AT MASS MEETING

The paternal attitude of the en-
ployers who endeavor to Offset or
ganization of workers in the tailor
ing industry by supplying them with
welfare work was the keynote of the
addresses of the speakers at the mass
meeting held last night to an audi
ence that packed West End hall.
Jos. Schlossberg of New York, vice
pres. Amalgamated Clothing Workers
of America, was the principal speaker
and received an ociation from the
workers. He told of the struggle that
has been made intermittently for the
past twenty-five years to organize
tailors and how they have joined the
organization, won a strike, then left
the union only to have to be called
back again when conditions become
intolerable.
81 know with what distrust tailors
look upon unions" he said, because
l have been with them in the tene-
ments where they live in New York
and have heard their views. !
But into those same tenements
will go sociologists and philanthro-
pists and preach to the tailors that

work from early in the morning until
very late at night. Are they not
thrifty? l have seen them eat stale
rolls because they cost less than fresh
ones. And the more thrifty and in
dustrious tailors are the less money
they get. If he can get along with
less his wages are cut" 80
Commenting on the bosses en-
ployment agency which was declared
a violation of the statutes of Illinois
by the senate committee that inves-
tigated it, he pointed to the fact that
no action has been taken to destroy
the bosses, unlawful blacklisting
agency, but the supreme court used
the law, put on the statute books to-
curb trusts, to take from working
men who had done nothing to COM
pare with this conspiracy all they
have saved in years.
S. Levin of the A. C. w. of A.
scathingly denounced the paternal-
ism of the bosses.
"They are becoming the fathers of
your families" he said. "They are
promoting societies, creating unions
in the shops and making the foremen
the heads of the bosses unions.
''They give you dance free of
charge. Why don't they give you
wages that will permit you to pay %
cents to enter a dance hall that does
not bear the stamp of the bosses? In
the bad times the workers must be
beggars and go to the employers for
charity. Men and women who clothe
the country have to beg for rags to
clothe themselves and their children.
Without organization we can only
expect promises. They think we are
asleep and so they promise to give us
something after awhile, but promises
don't pay rent, nor buy clothing, nor
food. They made you promise

night, may deny his guilt and put up
fight TO clear himself was the Opin-
ion OF a Cass county deputy sheriff
who was in Laporte today. Deputy
Arthur X. Nixon stated that Kramer
would not say a word about the kill
ing now. His wife was the only wit
ness of the crime and under the law
wife cannot testify against her nus
band. This leaves the state with no
witnesses against Kramer though
there is a large mass of circumstan-
tial evidence that will be collected.
one Of the purposes Of NiXOn's
visit here was 10 find out whether
Kramer purchased the knife here
with which Collier was killed. Ac-
cording to a statement made today by
the half craZed wife Kramer fired two
shots at her and was only prevented
from killing her by her promise to
live with her husband and forgive him
for the Staying OF her father.
