Courts an Obstacle
To SeIf-GOvernment

Washington-The non-partisan po-
litical program of the A. F. of L. in
cludes protest against the policy of
federal and state courts in setting
aside lows. 1t is declared that this
policy is an obstacle to self-govern-
ment and previous declarations by
the A. F. of L. are recalled in which
it is stated that where a law is de-
clared unconstitutional, and is again
passed by the proper legislative body,
it shall become law and not be sub
ject to annulment by any court.
"The warning given by Jefferson
that the danger to the people of this
republic lies in the usurpation by our
judiciary of unconstitutional author
ity has been fully demonstrated" it
is stated. "a judiciary unresponsive
to the needs of the time, arrogating
to itself powers which neither the
constitution nor the purposes of our
laws have conferred upon them, de-
mands that at least in our time
Americans must insist upon safe
guarding their liberties
eve urge that the judges of our
federal courts shall be elected by the
people for terms not exceeding six
years. We assert that there can not
be found in the constitution of the
United States or in the discussions
of congress which drafted the con-
stitution any authority for the federal
courts of our country to declare un-
constitutional any act passed by
congress.
eve call upon the people of our
country to demand that the congress
of the United States shall take action
for the purpose of preventing the
federal courts from continuing the
usurpation Of such authority"

are large stockholders in the engine
plant.
While the Pennsylvania's shops are
languishing and its workers are being
dismissed, Baldwin's will get all the
work required to pile up fat profits
to be divided later to Pennsylvania
railroad officials. The Pennsylvania
is ighted-much farther sighted
than the Erie. II had it's supply COM
pany all ready for the picking process
The general manager of the Balti-
more and Ohio, writing on February
2Sth, informs his subordinates that
"ip passing over the road / frequent
ly find what appears to be an un-
necessarily large number of men
doing a small amount of work." and
he demands retrenchment and reform.
He saw all these unnecessary men"
during the period of federal control,
but it didn't occur to him to adopt
any economy plans, because the gov
ernment was footing the bills, and
the public didn't know who was re-
sponsible for the deficit.
And thus slowly but surely is be-
ing revealed the true history of pri-
vate railway management and loot.
When the true story is revealed, the
outraged public will arise in its might
and force Congress-yes, force is the
word-to retrace its steps and give
some consideration to the rights of
the people.

Let Them Pay
TAX ON STOCK DIVIDENDS PRO-
POSED IN CONGRESS
Senator Nelson Has introduced Con.
stitutiOnal Amendment EmpOw-
ering Congress to Tax Stock
Dividends of All Kinds

Washington-To correct a decision
by the United States supreme court
in the stock dividends case, Senator
Nelson of Minnesota has introduced
q constitutional amendment to en-
power congress to levy taxes on stock
dividends "from whatever source OBJ
tanned or in whatever manner issued"
AS a result of the courts decision
large corporations are issuing stock
dividends instead of paying dividends,
thereby reducing the amount of Gin
come" received by the holder of these
stock dividends.
The effect of this decision is shown
by Justice Brandeis of the supreme
court, who said, in his minority
report:
"If stock dividends representing
profits are held exempt from taxa
tion under the sixteenth amendment,
the owners of the most successful
businesses in America will, as the
facts in this case illustrate, be able
to escape taxation on large part of
what is actually their income. So far
as their profits as represented by
stocks received as dividends they will
pay these taxes not upon their in
come but only upon the income of
their incomes. That such a result
was intended by the people of the
United States when adopting the six
teenth amendment is inconceivable.
Justice Brandeis called attention to
former declarations by the court that
the federal constitution is a state
ment of general principles and not a
specification of details and that an
act of congress should not be de-
clared invalid except in a clear case.
In the case of Ogden VS.. Saunders,
II Wheaton 213, 270, this statement
is made:
"It is but a decent respect due to
the wisdom, the integrity, and the
patriotism Of the legislative body, by
which any law is passed, to presume
in favor of its validity, until its viola
tion of the constitution is proved be-
yond a reasonable doubt"

No-Party Plan Not New

New York-In a letter to the New
York Times President Gompers cor
rects that newspapers statement
that "the A. F. of L. has reversed
the policy which it has followed so
long and has become separate po-
litical party"
"The A: F. Of L." said President
Gompers, "has not become a political
party. 1t has abandoned no principle,
nor has it changed any of its prin-
ciples. The A. F. of l.. is pursuing
the course that has been pursued
since it's establishment.
"The American labor movement in
tneds to elect its friends and defeat
its enemies. If it can nominate
friends and defeat it's enemies in the
primaries it intends to do that also.
The workers always have voted in
the primaries. This time it is the
intention to be more vigorous in Sc
curing the nomination of men who
will truly represent American man
hood. If union men can be nomi-
mated, so much the more certain will
labor be of victory in the elections.
Or is it the concept that the workers,
as workers and citizens, have not the
right to elect liberty-loving patriotic
Americans, simply because of the
fact that they are workers, or is it
the purpose to continue to select
members of the lawyers clubs of
America of whom there are over $50
in the house of representatives
alonef"

PICKING THE RAILROAD BONES
(By Charles M. Kelley

Railway managers have declared
that their properties are in bad shape
as a result of government inter
ference. They say that but the
skeleton of the old system remains.
1t is significant, but not important,
that these managers are getting ready
to pick the bones
The Erie railroad has "sold' it's car
repair plant at Hornell, N. Y, to a
private corporation, operating with
out capital, and henceforth, it is an
nounced, will give this concern a con-
tract for all repair work.
The new company, without capital,
is to utilize the Erie's plant and ma
chinery. 1t is to step in where the
Erie steps out, and make profit for
somebody.
That somebody or somebodies hap
pen to be officials of the Erie rail
road. They have put themselves in
position where they will be beyond
government scrutiny. There will be
no limitation of their profits. They
also annul the agreement which the
government made with the workers.
They got rid of the eight-hour day
and time and a half for overtime.
1t is fine arrangement for picking
the bones of the railroad and fatten-
ing upon the workers. 1t is a part
of the program which has been map
ped out for exploiting the people.
The Pennsylvania Railroad, with
of dollars invested in plants,
is sending it's engines to the Baldwin
Locomotive Works for repairs? Bald
win is closely Unidentified with rail
road offcialdom. William H. Barnes
is a director in both companies. Many

weeks time it won't be his fault. He's
not earning his money unless he
finds trouble, and if he can't find it
already existing, he creates it.
How much better would it be if
you could handle him the way he was
handled the other day in New York
City. The moral in the following
story, just received by US, could we'll
be emulated by those manufacturers
who are putting "Trouble" on their
parolls:
1t was busy day for Mr.. Sinclair.
He was overwhelmed with visitors, so
he turned one of them over to Mr..
Horgan, his "side kick" The card
was from detective agency and the
big burly man who presented it was
Enthusiastically detective. Being as
sured that Mr.. Sinclair was repre-
sented by Mr.. Horgan, he poured into
the latter's ear cleverly prepared
speech to the effect that they had in
formation that there were trouble
breeders in Sinclair & Valentines ink
factory and they could put detective
in as an ink grinder and smoke them
out.
Mr.. Horgan, during his thirty-five
years on the New York daily news
papers had mixed much with detec-
tives, but this was a new game and,
like "Bre'r Rabbit" he lay low. When
the whole plan was unfolded to him,
he just invited the detective to follow
him. He took him to the big dining
room, where the men ate and pointed
to the sumptuous bill of fare and the
nominal prices charged for the best
food in the market, cooked by ex-
Pullman chefs. He showed him the
sunny, airy dining room for the of
flee and girl workers; its immaculate
ly clean kitchen and the food exactly
similar to that served to the mill
hands. From there he pointed out
the rest room for the girls and the
shower baths for men, passing by the
bronze tablet memoralizing the men
from the factory who enlisted in the
late war, the detective was led to the
entrance where he read this motto:
Lets all keep industry hum
ming by working together-em-
players and employees in har-
.monious cooperation"
All the detective could say by this
time was: "You will have no trouble
with your employees in this factory
You know how to reach men-through
their stomachs and bodily comforts.
Whoever planned all this had a big
heart" He then passed out to scare
some other employer into hiring his
men.
While it is true that some firms
may be bothered with trouble makers,
yet the solution of the problem cer-
tainly does not rest in hiring "spy"
to send out among the men. Such
action is bound to create further dis
sension. The feasible and sensible
solution to such a problem is to COR
rect the conditions; trouble makers
can't breathe in a wholesome atmos-
phere.-W. S. Reed in The American
PresSman.

TROUBLE

Did you ever hear of manufact-
urer who didn't have enough trouble
in his plant, without actually placing
a trouble maker on the pay roll? And
that with his eyes wide open at the
time!
It's happening every day. The
print shop proprietor, or ink, paper or
machine manufacturer is approached
with the yelled insinuation that
trouble is brewing in his plant. In
these Bolshevistic days, such state
ment usually carries weight, and is
easily believed. Most "bosses"
naturally feel that if trouble isn't
brewing in their plant, it's most as
suredly the only place on earth where
tranquility and peace exists; there
fore the insinuation has the force Of
conviction
Then follow the usual logical steps
toward the sale of the "trouble idea" F"
The interest, attention and conviction
stage are passed with the rapidity of
d meteor, by the mere statement:
"Trouble is brewing in your plant"
The boss is held spellbound as the
proponent of the idea cleverly weaves
the great steel strike, coal strike,
printers strike and ten or twelve
other strikes into his story-all caused
and brought about by the fanatical
utterances of two or three men in the
ranks, spreading the poisonous germs
of bolshevism among the workers.
And why? continues this super
salesman of the "Troube Idea"
Just because you, Mr.. Employer,
have failed to protect your interests;
because you wilfully, openly and with
out reason absolutely ignore the pre-
carious conditions as they now exist
in your plant, and because you have
neglected to stamp out the germ Of
bolshevism by employing Mr.. Tin
Star, detective par excellence, to fer
ret out the evil doors and the bol-
shevistic instigators, the mutterings
of whose diseased brains are under
mining your business stability, and
fomenting trouble in your factory.
The final push over the brink into
action" on Mr.. Tin Stars sug-
gestions, is given when he offers
personally, mind you-to go into
your pressroom, your ink factory,
your machine shop or your paper
mill, as a common-every-day laborer,
and obtain the valuable information
for you which will bring about the
discharge of those men who are caus-
ing these internal disturbances. The
fee is nominal-just think what a
strike would cost you!
You hire this man, and by the
Great Horn Spoon, if you don't have
trouble in your plant within two

Union Opens Schools

New York - The International
Ladies' Garment Workers union has
inaugurated a system of unity centers
in various sections of this city that
are operated without cost to the mem
bers of this organization. Meetings
are held in the public schools The
studies include the teaching of Eng
lish, the labor movement and trade
unionism, literature, art, music, edu-
cational films, health lectures, GYM
nastics and social recreation.
A large amount of literature eX-
planning the purposes of these CEN
ters has been issued. One of these
pamphlets state:
"The shop has been your only
school. 1t has given you a limited
and narrow education. You need a
union shop in the school as we'll as
in the factory"
The union also maintains a work
ers' university in public school. The
courses include: Labor and manage
ment; trade unionism; present tend
encies in literature; economics of the
industrial system; psychology; public
speaking; correction of speech de-
fects; English, grammar and written
composition; American history and
American civics; modern European
history; current events and recon-
struction problems; elementary sci
ence; the cooperative movement.
Teachers for these classes are
recognized authorities, and we'll
known physicians lecture on health.

Fancy Versus Facts
In Two Big Strikes

Philadelphia-Fancy was given free
rein by the editor of the North Amer
lean in discussing the threatening
manifestations of bolshevism in this
country"
"a few months ago." he said, "a
great basic industry was paralyzed
by a strike whose inspiration, re-
vealed in the writings of its leader,
was the program Of syndicalism, class
rule and the ultimate destruction Of
democratic institutions in the United
States. Another group of organized
labor undertook to defy the laws Of
the nation and nullify the authority
of the national government by stop
ping the supplies of fuel in order to
enforce their arbitrary demands upon
helpless public"
Against these fights of fancy, the
record shows that last fall the soft
coal miners asked for a so per cent
wage increase and other concessions.
AAAS wal OWLCIo l1CG I1IC1U LII COu~
ference in Buffalo and later in Phila.
delphia, but at no time during these
negotiations did they offer a counter
proposition. This forced the miners
on strike to secure any increase.
The steel strike was caused by the
refusal of Judge Gary to meet a COM
mittee representing his employees for
the purpose of discussing wages,
hours and working conditions.
The attempt to organize steel work.
ers for the purpose of securing better
conditions was started at conven.
ton of the A. F. of L., nearly two
years before the strike was forced
upon these workers.
During the strike the public press
insisted that this movement was de-
signed to overthrow the govern
ment," but most Of these editors
have lately accepted the theory that
"you can't fool all of the people all
of the time"
