o'HARA SAYS THE ADVERTISERS
INFLUENCE TRIBUNE POLICY

Commenting on the proposal to film
the activities Of the Illinois senate
vice committee, thus emphasizing the
wrongs it uncovered, the Tribune
grew sarcastic this morning and de-
clared the committee, headed by
Leut.-Gov. O'Hara, had done moth
ing but belittle political opponents.
In a statement answering the ed
itorial, O'Hara says the real animus
behind the Tribune's stand is the fact
that the committee showed up many
of the Trib's most prolific advertisers.
"The poor old grandmother of
Dearborn street has been in perfect
hysteria ever since the Illinois senate
vice commission got to prodding the
Tribune's pet advertisers" declared
O'Hara. "The editorial in today's pa
per is just another manifestation Of
the dear old Trib's intense loyalty to
its advertising patrons.
eff any proof is required of the real
incentive back of the editorial it will
be found on page 766 of the printed
report of the vice commission.
''Mr Edward ]. Lehman of the Fair
is testifying. Here is part of his tes-
timony, given under oath:
"'Q-How much do State street
stores spend in advertising in Chica-
go newspapers?
Ans think the eight stores on
State street in the last year have
spent something like $2,500,000 for
advertising in Chicago daily papers
''The best indication that the ILL
nois senate vice commission has been
on the square with the people is that
the Tribune is Historically trying to
earn it's share Of the two and half
millions by printing such editorials.
mo wonder the Trib is on its
knees, editorially praying that we will
have no more of the committee look
ing into the affairs of the Trib's adj

LOCKWOOD MILL
WAGE CHANGE

Notices have been posted in the
Lockwood mills announcing an adjust
ment of wages to go into effect on May
1. In accordance with the usual GUS
tom Of the Lockwood Co. no set
amount of percentage has been nam
ed in the announcement and it will
undoubtedly vary with the different
lines Of work on an equal basis, so that
one man will not be paid more than he
should be and another less. This has
been a hard proposition as the mill has
been almost constantly changing ma
chinery about in the past few years
and 1t has materially changed the
rating of some of the employees, but
in many cases it has not been possible
to make a change in pay without
trouble. The advances Of the past Few
months offer an opportunity to even
things I'D and this is being done not
only in this mill but in others all over
New England. The advances at TINS
time at the Lockwood mills are prac-
tically the same as will be given at the
other cotton mills in other sections
Of New England. 1t comes as welcome
news to the operatives who have been
hard hit by the steadily advancing cost
of everything that they have to buy.
