SAYS WORKERS
y WILL NOT RUN
HARNESS SHOP
Chief OF Ordnance Refutes State
ments Printed Yesterday An.
Hounclng Shop Sabotage.

There is no truth to the state
ments printed by a number of pa
pers in this part of the country
yesterday. including several Chi
cago dailies and tri-city sheets,
telling of a complete revolution
in the methods Of handling work
in Rock Island arsenal harness
shops. 1t was stated that the
workers were to choose their fore
men, consider government orders
with a critical eye. and in many
ways follow the scheme of demo-
cratic management of industries.
Where the idea originated is not
known, but it is thought that the
central council of employees and
heads at the plant formed TO per-
feet arbitration. was somehow mis-
understood and distorted to give
Fthe men much greater power than
the plan really provides for. The
council is not an extreme body
Management of the vital affairs
has not been turned over to work
ers in the harness shop.
Denied by High Officer.
A telegram from Chief of Ord
nance Charles c. Williams was re-
ceiyed today by Colonel Harry B.
Jordan, positively denying the pub
Iished statements, and follows:
Referring to statements in the
morning papers that the harness
shop at the Rock Island arsenal
has been turned over to workers
the secretary of war informed me
personally that he had no intention
of allowing interference in any way
with the authority and responsible
ity of the management in conduct
ing affairs of the arsenal. You
are authorized to give publicity TO

PEOPLE MUST TAKE
VICTORY LOAN OR
INIURE BUSINESS
II Banks Were Forced To Garry Whole
Loan, They Would Have Mo
Money To Lend To Public

That the Victory Loan, like It's four
predecessors, must be peoples loan
is especially stressed by Carter Glass,
secretary of the treasury, in state
ment to the public. 1t is MOTTO be a
bankers loan" The nations bust.
ness situation depends upon as wide
a distribution as possible OF the Vic
tory bonds.
The banks, it is pointed out, must b.
left free to advance money for business
purposes; to the merchants and manu-
facturers and the farmers. If all the
banks money is tied up in loans to
the government, 1t stands to reason
that there will be none left to lend
on crops. 1t would mean tight money
which means high interest rates and
refusals to extend notes and general
hardship upon the men who depend
upon the banks to assist them in car
rying on business and agriculture.
The Knoxville independent. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1894-current, 1919-03-15

The need for the billions the Vic
tory bonds will bring is plain to any
man who stops to think The war is
not over, though the actual fighting
has ceased. The bills are still running
up Millions of men are still in uni
form, drawing pay and food and cloth
Ing. The Secretary Of the Treasury
declares:
Government contracts cannot be re-
pudiated. The goods must be paid for
In full. Our shipbuilding activities
must be carried out"
So, it can easily be seen that the
Job is not finished. What would you
think of farmer who built him
house, laying the foundations, putting
up the walls, ceiling the rooms-and
forgetting the roof?
The roof will not be put on our ma
tional house until the job Is finished
and the bills paid.
The campaign for Victory bonds will
begin on April 81. The exact details
of the issue have not yet been an
nounced, but it is considered certain
that the bonds will be made an unusu-
ally attractive investment

ARE YOUR TAXES HEAVY?
THEY MAY BE HEAVIER YET

Probably every reader Of this paper
finds his taxes a bit higher than he
likes to pay Thousands Of them have
been struggling for the last few weeks
to make out reports on income taxes
to the government, and have found
that six per cent takes a pretty heavy
slice out Of what was left over on New
Years day. Many of you had to Dor
row money to pay the taxes.
But this tax is nothing to what all
of us will have to pay if the Victory
Loan fails to go over. Uncle Sans
war bills must be paid. He prefers to
borrow the money from us and pay us
back later on.
But if he can't borrow it, he must
take tin the form of taxes
It's like the difference between rent
ing a house for ten years or buying 1t
on the installment plan. In one case,
you wind up with a thick bundle OF
rent receipts. In the other, you have
a deed to your home.
Isn't it better to lend your money to
the Government at fair rate of in
terest than to pay it out in taxes,
which never come back?
That's worth considering when the
time comes 10 invest in Victory Bonds.

N. Y. TiE-UP THREATENED
Harbor Strike Deprives Electric Lines
of Coal Supply-AppeaIs Urging
Federal Intervention.

New York.-A complete tie-up OF
New York City's subway, elevated ana
surface car lines, as well as paralysis
of its harbor shipping, is threatened by
the strike of harbor workers, which
has been in progress more than a
week, it was asserted. Frank Hedley,
General Manager of the Interborough
Rapid Transit, declared that unless
coal barges were moved at once a
shutdown of transportation on Man
haitian Island will result. Freight is
piling up at piers, and the movement
of transatlantic and coastwise ship
ping has been demoralized. "The last
regular delivery of coal was made to
the marlborough week ago." Mr..
Hedley said. "While we have been
able to get few loads here and
there, the total amount has been far
from sufficient to keep the lines rum
ming" Appeals to Washington de-
scribed the situation as Critical" and
called for Federal intervention by the
communicating of tugboats.
