This is the program of prepared

Why ALL AMERICAN WAGE FARMERS and PRODUCERS SHOULD OPPOSE Wal

Why the workers and producers of
America,-all who are fighting to
make it a real democracy,-should
oppose war and resist appeal to the
''patriotism" that means privilege, is
told in clear and convincing fashion
in the sensational new book by Fred
eric G. Howe,-''Why War"
Here, in chapter after chapter. is
the whole story, told for the first time
in America, of how Big Business
manipulates the patriotic impulses of

up in New York banks, for cam

and rich natural resources may be

Pres. Wilson saved us from "dollar
diplomacy" by refusing to sanction
our taking part in the scheme to con-
troll the internal administration and
revenue system Of China.
''Dollar diplomacy, navalism and
the exploitation OF weaker peoples"
he adds, have gone hand in hand
during the last 20 years. The darkest
pages Of this story will never be writ

graves of weak and defenceless peo-
pies in every. part Of Africa, in Asia,

UNIONS AGAIN CONE
BACK At RAILROADS
Railroad Labor Officers Declare
Many Roads Still Give
Rebates.
PRIVATE CAR ABUSE

Wasteful Policy Obtaining BY In

Laid Bare.

CLEVELAND, May Ain state
ment issued today by the Railroad
Transportation brotherhood, attention
was directed to the practice Of rail-
roads in granting rebates to shippers,
hauling private cars, etc.
If the railroads are really sincere in
desiring to consereve their revenue, a
recent report of the interstate COM
merce commission, shows the roads
how they would save millions of dol
lars which they lose through practice
of hauling private cars and the grant,
ing of rebates.
This is important in connection with
the highly exaggerated estimates
which the railways ars handing out to
the public as to the cost to the carriers
of the adoption of the eight-hour
work day in freight train service.
Rebat1ng Continues.
1t is commonly supposed that the
| practice Of rebating has been brought
to an end, but the records of the fines
imposed upon the railroads show that
this unlawful practice has not yet
been put a stop to. Not ouly do the
| railroads lose revenue by granting re-
bates but the fines which are imposed
by the courts when rebate cases are
detected are very considerable. It is
reasonable to suppose that only a
small percentage of the actual rebat-
is discovered by. the authorities. "'-~--'*
These cases of rebating and un1aw-
full concessions and discrimin ations
are not confined to any particular Sec
ton Of the country or to any special
group of railroads. The practices are
quite general among different rail-
roads and in different sections. In
1915 the fines imposed upon the car
riers amounted to $234,000, the fol-
lowing railroads being convicted by
the courts: Central Railroad of New
Jersey, Chicago, Terre Haute & South
eastern, Grand Trunk, Louisville &
Nashville, Michigan Central. Missouri,
Kansas & Texas and the Sierra rail-
way.
Government Fines Them.
Commenting upon the Unnecessary
expense attending the infraction of
the laws directly connected with in
terstate commerce, the federal COM
mission in it's report in "the five per
cent case" rendered last year, states
that these expenses should be avoided.
This report says that the railroads in
official classification territory alone
have paid since December 1, 1909, in
the aggregate $S14,135 in forfitures
and fines, the larger part Of which
represent penalties and for rebating
One system alone has paid penalties
aggregating s335,1S5. If this one
source of depletion Of railway reve-
nues were dried up by a cessation of
the multifarious methods through
which favoritism is shown certain
shippers, it is suggested to railway Of
ficials who are opposing the granting
Of an eight-hour day to their freight
train employees, that there will be
more revenue in the treasuriers Of the
companies with which to meet the
slight increase in cost.
Free Transportation of private cars
is an abuse for which there is little
justification.
