HIGH SALARIES
Uncovered in Big New York
Suit

New York.-One of the highest sal
aried men in America was discovered
when w H. La Boyteaux, president
of Johnson & Higgins, insurance
brokers at 49 Wall street, admitted
that the company last year paid him
$161 SAB for his services. 1t was
brought out that George c. Coe, vice
president of the concern, received the
same salary.
The admission came in the trial of
the suit of Thomas j. Prindville, of
Chicago, a stockholder, to recover
dividends The complainant also asks
that the corporation be enjoined from
paying excessive salaries.
One official said the annual turn
over in the transactions of the com
pany was between $75,000,000 and
$100,000,000 n premiums and adjust
ment money. Salaries, he explained
are based on the business done by each
member of the board of directors and
at the annual meeting of the boar5
one-half the profits are set aside fol
salaries and then distributed on per
centage basis.

ers' Union Down in Texas is where
the open-shop movement was born 1t
was in this state that a local news
paper sought information on the move
ment with the object of bringing it
into Hamilton. So far as can be
learned this action has not met with
much approval by the local manufact-
urers. There is no doubt, however
that many big manufacturers through
out the country have contributed large
sums to further the movement, and it
behooves labor everywhere to be on
its guard. The old adage Of ian
ounce of prevention beats pound of
cure might we'll apply in this case.
So get together, fellows, and stick

CHARLES E. HEISER
Lou J. BEAUCHAMP

Hamilton suffered a severe and ir-
reparable loss, in just a few days, in
the death of two Of its foremost, loyal
and patriotic citizens Charles E.
Heiser and Lou ]. Beauchamp 10
two men ever did more for the ad-
vancement Of their home town than
did these two men for Hamilton One
with his money and the other with his
eloquence and sunshiny disposition
Their death is a distinct loss to the
many toilers Of the city many Of
whom can attest to the kindly deeds
performed for them BY both Mr.
Heiser and Mr. Beauchamp, mention
of which was never made by either Of
them They weren't Of that calibre
Of men who delight in brass banding
every good deed they perform They
seemed to feel rewarded In the happl-
ness they brought to the less fortun-
ate.
It is conincident that both these men
who loved and cherished 50 much
their home town and all it contained
their families, relatives and closest
FRIENDS should die away from all
these, among strangers This makes
their death doubly sad
1t is said that no man in Hamilton
ever did more in a charitable way
that did Mr. Heiser He did much for

BLoCKADING THE STREETS

The Press wants to call the atten-
ton of the mayor and safety director
to the continuous blockading of the
crossings on our principal streets by
the railroads Much complaint is be-
ing made, but it seems that it isn't
reaching the ears Of the proper auth
critics, or if so it is being ignored.
Traffic is being held up beyond rea-
son Workmen on their way to and
from their work are held up until
when they arrive at their places Of EN-
ployment they register in late and get
blue ticket. AS an instance of the
way the streets are being blocked,
on Wednesday afternoon between the
hours of 5 and 6 o'clock at 5th and
Maple avenue traffic was held up, it
is said, for nearly As minutes. People
had to go to High street or Walnut
street to get around At another

Monday morning because a switching
crew had a cut Of cars on the main
line, and didn't seem to know how tc

than 20 minutes This is dangerous
and should have the attention of the
proper authorities at once. Suppos,
fire should break out during this time
how would the fire department get tx
it? The city could burn down so fal
as the railroads are concerned. o.

where mans life depended on get

have to be hauled miles around the

WHAT ABOUT IT2


An Investigation completed BY the
department Of justice shows the
American Woolen Mills Company
made a net profit Of Sl9ooo,ooo in the
first quarter Of 1920, on within 81 600,
coo Of the total common stock capi-
talizaton Of the company, according
to information furnished By the New
York World. According to the IN
formant the investigation Of the
American WooIen Company was be-
gun two months ago, following the
receipt Of charges that it was profit
eellng in necessities. On the basis Of
| Sl9 100000 for the first quarter the
American Wooden Company would
earn total profits Of $76,00oo0 o.
nearly 400 per cent on its total com
mon stock capitalization during 1920

sums Of money expended by repubii

doing a proper and creditable thing
OF course William Cooper Proctor

just because he believes ii Wood.

in General Woods behalf and the
News refers to the investigation of
this expenditure as rather absurd
inquiry" Wonder what the News
would have to say if the trick was on
the democrats. And say! What would
the News have to say if they had a
labor party in the same kind of hole ?
Forget it. We have just a sneaking
idea that when the election rolls
around that the vote is going to show
that the people didn't believe that a
