The Big Conspire Against the
Little
Little
Big manufacturers, steel men and other
No Fear of Jail-Other Things.

Big manufacturers steel men and other men
have complained for years of labor unions and the cry
has been: They control working conditions and keep the
poor non union man from getting work
Now the biggest steel men admit they have done with
all their might the very thing Of which they complained
They admit that they have refused to sell steel to builders
that chose to employ union workmen.
Union workers, according to master builders are more
skiul reliable, economical in the long run
than union But the builder that refused to main
tain IAN open shop open to competent and incompetent
labor alike could get steel from the great financial
powers that control the steel industry of the nation This
told by the biggest builders and the steel admit it.
In other words, the biggest industrial con-
Germs this country conspred ruin the workmens
unions. They have backlsted concerns complying with
union labor regulations, using their power secretly and
effectively destroy labor organizations whose existence
and activities recognized legal and beneficial.
If against union men there had been proved what is
now proved against the Steel Trust and its little cousins
it would be to find Judge to enjoin fine or Jail the
guilty workmen.
But you mistaken if you think that any judge will
jail respectable fnancer for conspiring to ruin work
mems organizations.
We Jail W0RKMEN in this country, NOT fnanciers

There is for Lenines paying the Gear
debts than there would have been for George Washington
to pay the debts of King George. What do you think
Washington would have said if asked pay Georges debts
after having got rid of him?
The Governments Bureau of Markets has
begun sending market reports by wireless the reports
being picked up by amateur wireless operators and dis
trbuted Before very long every farmer will get his wire
less report printed inside his house automatic
instrument receiving and writing down the wireless
message.
The farmer will read, when he gets up, all that he
needs know about food prices and other matters The
machinery for this work exists and any tree with roots
running down to damp soil be used wireless
ceiver.
From telling farmers each day by Government wireless
what food OUGHT to bring to fixing by Government
thority the food prices, may not be long STEP Once
started things rapidy-as noticed recently by
people Mont Blanc
In November you elected a new Congress.
The old Congress and Administration which you put out
for several thousand good hangs until next
March Men that you don't want hanging around any
longer will hang and make laws for you months after
you have discharged them-a preposterous situation.
It dates back stage days. when it might take
a man many weeks to reach Washington bad roads
Allowing for other weeks let the electors and settle
quarel the fathers decided that November and
change Government in March would be about right.
Now the whole thing could be done easily between
Election Day and December and Congress should adopt
the suggestion just introduced that members elected
take office December 1 and those PUT out STAY out
