STOCK MARKET
SEES NO STOP
Brokers Believe Enemy
Terms Will Be Rejected,
But Peace Next Summer.
BY BRoApAN Wall.

New York. Oct. 22.-Stock mar
ket operators proceeded today on
the theory that President Wilson
would tell the Kaiser to see Foch
about 1t. There was no thought
anywhere that the German terms
would be accepted. Possibilities of
var until next sprig were strong
enough to frighten the shorts in
the so-called war stocks. Those
issues advanced sharply under the
leadership OF Baldwin and indus
trial Alcohol.
On the other hand, the prospect OF
certain peace next summer. a real
American peace. was enough to
encourage buying of rails and
peace stocks. There was profit
taking in the oils. Motors were
rather heavy. but marines were
strong, as were also coppers. Spe-
cialties that We're active at all
were strong. The market closed
firm in most departments, but with
the oils near the bottom.
"Mea" Petroleum, at Bottom.
Mexican Petroleum closed the
day at the bottom with decline
of II points, which Is a decline of
80 points from the high of last
week. The break in Mexican
brought Royal Dutch down IL
points. but Texas held firm.
Southern Pacific was firm around
its high price in spite of consider
able profit-taking. Its action en-
couraged the other rails and Read
ing moved up briskly. Union Pa

st. Paul were features. The low
priced stocks also were well
bought. including COLORADO and
Southern. Wabash, particularly the
"A" stock. and Erie. There is some
talk OF Erie first getting a div-
dend in response to the demand of
stockholders.
Announcement from Washington
that the Federal Trade Commission
had issued a complaint against the
Tobacco Products Corporation did not
check the move that had begun in
that issue. 1t went to a new high
level and its rise caused sympathetic
strength in American sumatra.
Great Combine Rumored.
Atlantic Gulf and West Indies took
leadership in the Marine list and the
Street heard once more that as soon
as the Mercantile Marine Company
disposes of its foreign ships IL will
organize a great combination, in

NEW INTERNATIONAL HOME
FOR MACHINISTS

Washington-The international AS
sociation of Machinists has decided
to build a home of its own in Wash
ington, d. C. The new home is to
cost $150,OOO. The ground has al
ready been purchased and cost $48,
000 1t is to be right near the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor building.
The reason for the decision of the
International is that the quarters,
which it now occupies in the A. F. of
L. building, are becoming so crowded
because of the large volume of bus
mess to transact, due to the enormous
growth of the organization, that the
step taken was deemed necessary.
The cost of the new home is to be
met by donations from the various To-
cal lodges and individual members.

"Mr. McAdoo was hired by a pres
ident who holds his job for a period
of four years and who cannot be re-
moved except through impeachment
proceedings, while the employe holds
his job as long as his services are
necessary to the operation of the rail
roads. One holds his job through po-
litical success, the other holds his job
through economic stress. The one
possesses the power to hire and fire,
the other has only the privilege of
being hired and fired.
'The one can retain his job by con-
tinUing his party in power, through
political action, the other can retain
his job only so long as he has econo-
mic power, through force of numbers,
to compel consideration of his rights
and demands.
at is quite true that Mr.. McAdoo
and the officers and employees are now
all servants Of the public, but it is
also true that their status as en-
ployes of the public is quite differ
ent."

Columbus, O.-Six hundred work
men in one day, was the record set
up by the U. S. Employment Service
in furnishing labor, urgently needed,
to the government nitrate plant now
building at Ancor, near Cincinnati.
These men were furnished through
the efforts Of the Community Labor
Board, Cincinnati, and an intensive
recruiting campaign by the employ
ment service in Cincinnati and sur
rounding counties.
Three thousand men are needed if
the plant is to be gotten in shape for
operation this winter. Ammonium
nitrate, the product, is the base for
all powder and explosives.
Movies, talks and variety Of at
fractions are being provided for the
men at Ancor, which is Is miles from
Cincinnati, the nearest place where
men could find amusement and
diversion.

Ohio State Federation of Labor
Session Opens in Columbus on Monday and VIII
Last Until all the Necessary Business
is Disposed of

The Ohio State Federation of Labor
now in session in Columbus is we'll
attended by representatives from af
filiated unions throughout the state.
The opening session was held Mon
day afternoon, and the convention will
continue until all business coming be-
fore it is disposed of.
The question having arisen regard
ing the advisability of holding the
State meeting according to the an
nounced program, owing to the pre-
valence of the epidemic of influenza,
an open air meeting was held in the
capital grounds at 10 o'clock Monday
morning and the matter thoroughly
discussed. When put to a vote the
delegates present decided, by a large
majority, that the convention should
be held at Memorial Hall, and should
assemble at two o'clock p. m.
At the hour named the meeting was
called to order, and Mayor Karb was
introduced. The mayor, in a short
but we'll timed speech, welcomed the
great body Of representatives Of or
ganized labor to the capital city, and
extending its courtesies and privi-
leges. He was followend by Gov
Cox who was enthusiastically re-
ceived, who spoke briefly on the exist
ing present conditions.
John A. Voll, president of the State
Federation, was next introduced and
after responding to the tumultuous
applause with which he was received,
took charge of the meeting. The
Committee on Credentials not being
prepared to report an adjournment
was taken until nine o'clock Tuesday
morning.
A large number of delegates was
present at the Tuesday morning ses-
sion, which was opened at nine o'clock
by President Vol. The first business
+ in order was the presidents annual
address which was listened to with
deep interest by the assembled dele
! gates.
In speaking Of labor conditions
after the war President Voll said:

and planing) mines, Sulphur, pyrites,
mining tools, and equipment.
Imperative demands from the gov
ernment for labor for urgent govern
ment construction in Ohio and for
munition workers aggrayate situa-
tion already grave. The one answer
is mediate withdrawal of labor from
nOn-war and less essential work,
which is now being undertaken by
community labor boards, and the sub
stitution of women for men, wherever
practicable. There's no other way out.
Operation of Community Labor
Boards and the plan to substitute wo-
men for men, will greatly lessen the
labor shortage in October, it is pre-
dicted.

AGITATORS AN EFFECT EN-
PLOYERS ADVISED

Madison, Wis.-At a public hear
ing held by representatives Of the
federal department of labor en-
ployers pleaded that they chad no
trouble until agitators and unionism
appeared in their plants"
Editor Evjue, of the Capital Times,
advises these employers "that the
remedy for agitators is to eliminate
evils and abuses that bring about
agitation"
"These employers" says Editor
Evjue, "are looking to everybody but
themselves for places to lodge the
blame of their trials and tribulations.
Their own lack of vision in failing to
see the trend and tendency of the
times is never mentioned. They seem
| TO feel that the trouble comes from
external rather than internal sources.
"The trouble with our employers is
that they are concerning themselves
more with incidentals than with fun
damentals. They fail to see that the
remedy for agitators is to eliminate
evils and abuses that bring about agi-
tation; they see the agitator, but not
the thing back of the agitator. They
are unable to interpret the unrest and
uneasiness in terms Of present-day
conditions and tendencies.
"Wages have been low and the
workers are using the weapon Of col
lective bargaining and unionism to
bring about industrial justice. All
other questions and troubles are but
manifestations of this issue.
"Our employers are in the position
OF trying to cure a cancer by the use
Of salve. They think their troubles
would be ended with the elimination
OF 'agitators.
"The employers say they are in
favor Of labor organizations. But they
fight the recognition Of the unions
with dogged persistency. In other
words-they are in favor of shooting
clubs but they are opposed to the use
Of shotguns. They favor labor organ
izations as long as the wOrkmen do
not avail themselves of the power
which organization brings them.
"Our employers must recognize the
right of men to organize. They must
recognize the eight-hour day. Society
has made up its mind pretty definite
ly on those questions. Our employers
can not oppose the spirit and trend
Of the times.
eff they continue to do so they can
not look around for other shoulders
On which to place their troubles, they
must look to themselves"

LABOR BOARD
Newark Members of the u. S. Federal
Community Labor Board
Are Appointed

The Community Labor Board for
Newark, appointed by the United
States Employment Service Commits
sion of Ohio, consists Of Rev. Charles
H. Stull, minister; VIM. H. Cocanour,
labor and Geo. E. Pickup, employer.
More than 20 Community Labor
Boards have been organized in Ohio
and approximately 40 more will be
organized to handle the problem,
rendered very important by the in
creasing demands of labor for war
work, of supervising the withdrawal
of labor from non-war and less es-
sential lines of work and the sub
stitution Of women for men wherever
practical.
Monthly reports on the labor and
industrial situation in every COM
munity is part of the comprehensive
survey which will be inaugurated by
Federal Community Labor Boards in
Ohio. The first survey will be COM
menced Immediately by the Com
munity Labor Boards now organized
and by the other 40 boards as fast as
they are created.
After the initial survey the boards
are expected to have their reports
completed by the end of the first week
of the month.
The data obtained is to be used
primarily in solving the non-war work
into essential industries and the sub
stituting of women, as far as practical,
in all lines of work 1t will also be
available for other branches of the
department of labor and the War In
dustries Board, Washington.
Community Labor Boards are being
furnished with a list of industries
concerning which inquiry is to be
directed specifically. This list includes
these industries: foundries, gas ap-
pliances, glass, gloves, and mittens,
guns, exclusive of U. S. Arsenals)

goods, jewelry, leather goods, trunks,
bags, etc., lumber, machine tools,

at stake. In the past we've had rs
Eer cent of autocracy in industry
This won't be so after the war, when
the right Of labor to bargain over the
counter through its representatives
will be recognized"
Referring to the attitude of those
in authority regarding organized la
Dor, and antagonism towards the
workmen's compensation law, Mr..
Voll continued:
when men are nominated for of
fee in the face of labor's protest, who
have proved themselves unfriendly to
labor, it is high time that labor ac-
cepts the challenge and uses its best
efforts to administer a stinging re-
buke by defeating them for election"

At the Wednesday session pro-

and a resolution against the proposal
was introduced by E. U. Whitacre,

resolutions will no doubt result in
lengthy and heated arguments at the

McADOO'S RELATION TO PUBLIC
DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MEN
Railway FederatiOnist Takes Up Fight
Against "NO Politics" Rule

Sedalia. - While in accord with
Director General of Railroads Nc
Adoo's plan to take this transporta-
ton system out of politics, the Rail
way Federationist, official newspaper
of the A. F. of L., railway employees
department, expresses the belief that
the directors "no politics" order will
be used by private interests to re-
establish private control of the roads
after the war, because" says this
paper, "the employees who have and
are now Loyalty supporting the di-
rector general will not be in a posi-
tion to use their political power in
defending the government, for they
will have lost interest in political af-
fairs as result of his recent order"
The Railway Federationist does not
entirely agree with Mr.. McAdoo that
he "is also a servant of the public,
owing a duty to the public as we'll as
the employees"
"This is true" says the Railway
Federationist, "but there is a vast
difference in the relationship towards
the public as between the employees
and the public and Mr. McAdoo and
the public. AS director of railroads
Mr. McAdoo possesses almost unlim-
tied powers. He can, by the mere is
suance of an order, take from the en-
ployes all the rights and privileges it

The Ohio Electric Men on Strike
Demands for Union Recognition and an Increase
Not Granted by Company Officials, and
Walk-Out Results

Newark citizens, after becoming ac
oustomed to gasolineless, showless,
churchless, schoolless and saloonless
conditions, discovered on Wednesday
morning that one more "less" had
been added to the list, and that they
were now also streetcarless and in
terurbanless.
Inquiry disclosed the fact that the
employees of both interurban and city
lines, becoming thoroughly disgusted
with the niggardly wages paid and
the methods of evasion and procras-
.tination employed by the manage
ment, had "walked out" and a tie-up
was the result.
Some months ago the employees of
the Ohio Electric system, realizing
the benefits derived from from organ
ization, determined to form fedora
ton for mutual benefit and protec-
ton, and a strong union of motOrmen
and conductors was instituted and af-
fliated with the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Street and Electric Railway
Employees of America. The various
divisions of the Ohio Electric already
unionized are those operating be-
tween GAINESVILLE and Columbus, Co.
lumbus and Orient, Columbus and
Dayton, Springfield and Lima, Lima
and Toledo, Lima and Defiance, and
Lima and Fort Wayne. The employees
of the city car lines of both Newark
and GAINESVILLE are also members of
the organization.
After an organization had been eff
fected it was decided that the time
was propitious to ask for a recogni-
tion of the union and that wages be
advanced to living basis. With this
object in view a committee of en-
ployes called upon H. G. Gilpin, Gen
eral Manager of the company, at
Springfield, on Monday, October z.
This autocratic gentleman refused
point blank to recognize the union or
the committee as the unions repre-
sentative, and announced all matters
must be adjusted between the en-
ployer, as a company, and the en-
ployes as separate individuals.
After this most unsatisfactory
termination of an endeavor to obtain
a hearing and explain the business of
their requests, it was decided to at
once get the feeling of the employees
in the matter, and secret ballot was
taken upon the advisability of order
ing a strike to enforce their demands.
The result of this vote surprised even
it's most sanguine advocates, it being
unanimous with the exception of but
seven dissenting votes.
After a strike had been authorized
by this overwhelming majority the
committee again called upon Mr.. Gil
