Capital is putting up a more SER
icus attempt han ever to combat
the power of the labor organiza-
tiCn. The fight to declare uncon-
stitutional the eight hour law which
congress passed for the brotherhoods
has already been started by f. T..
Ripley, president of the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. He
believes the growing strength of
labor will eventually demand every
thing in sight, until a social revolu-
ton will result. In his defiance of
the eight hour law he says: Con
gress, hastily acting under a threat
OF four leaders of labor organiza-
tons, enacted a so called eight hour
law, which is nothing more nor less
thar an advance of 20 tt 25 per
cent in the wages of the best paid
men in railway service. 1t is only
fair to the public and to our en-
ployeeS to say that the Atchiso1,
Topeka and Santa Fe Railway COM
pany does not intend to comply with
the law until ordered to do so by
the court of last resort" On the
other hand, William B. FITZGERALD,
labor organizer who tied up the trac-
ton systems of New York twice,
says capital throughout the coun,1

J.. 5. MAKING
BRITAIN'S
"TANKS"
TURNING OUT DEADLY
NEW JUGGERNAUT
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. =

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. = The
British tanks, the armored mo-
tor cars used in recent assaults on
German trenches in northern France
so successfully as to attract world
wide attention, we're built for the
most part in Peoria. ILL.,. in the
form of caterpillar tractors, design
ed many years before the war began
to meet some of the difficult pro-
blems of modern farming. Ex-
cept for their armor, their machine
guns and their crews, thousands
like them are in use today in the
United States in blowing, digging
bitches, and other labors less heroic
than war.
NJ. M. Baker, vice-president of the
Holt Manufacturing company, ex-
planned that it was machines made
by his company at it's Peoria plant
that had hurdled German trenches,
walked through forests and crawl
ed over shell craters in the face
of intense gun fire. e.
I'VE have sold about 1000 cater
pillar tractors to the British govern
ment," said Mr.. Baker. 1--WE have
had nothing to do with putting ar
MOI OF them or placing machine
guns, but some of our men at
Aldershot, England, recently were
notified that the British government
intended to armor some of the
tractors and use hem for WORK
other than the usual towing of big
guns.
Germany had some of these
tractors and use them for work
although | do not understand just
how it occurred, | believe she may
have got others since then. We
have sent some to France and some
to Russia. So far as l know, up
until the recent appearance of the
motor cars, the tractors were used
only to tow big guns. l understand
hat Germany had about 40 of them
in this work before Liege, early in
the war, and recent photographs
show that the British are using
some of them now for the same
purpose"
Baker said he did not know how
many of the tractors sen to Eng
land had been armored, and put in
service, nor did he know what
equipment the British war office
had placed upon cars to be used
in this work.
1T is true said Mr.. Baker,
that these tractors can go ahead
over almost anything or through
almost anything. They car strad-
die a trench, go through a swamp,
roll over logs or climb through
naut. 1t looks uncanny to see them
crawl along the ground, just like a
huge caterpillar. In a thick for.
est, if they encounter trees they
could not brush out of their way.
they could easily pc used to up
o o them and clear their own
paths"
Baker said the tractors sent to
England weight about $4,000 pounds
each, develop 12O horsepower and
are built of steel. The caterpillar
feature. he explained, is of the ut
O importance.
The width of the track used on
the machines sem to England, Mr..
Baker said, was "a in hes. He le-
clared that the ground pressure is
about three pounds per square inch
where a t%hirty-inch track is used,
or less than that of the foot Of
either a or horse.
Although Mr.. Baker would not
discuss the matter, it was under
stood the United States war depart
ment is experimenting with tractors.
