"Thc new party formed at Chicago

Before an audience which com
fortably filled the Peoples theater
last night, and which gasped for
breath at his sweeping accuations,
Walter Thomas Mills, noted author
and lecturer, ripped the curtains
from the invisible government OF
the United States, and laid bare the
national chamber Of commerce, the
cone big union" of the plunderers
of America.
"Who was it who put up the
millions to buy the presidential
chair for Wood?" asked Mr.. Mills;
WHO was it who put up millions
to buy the presidents chair for
Palmer? And then, who threw both
/ Wood and Palmer to the junk pile
and chose Cox and Harding? 1t
was the United States chamber of
commerce! Who wrote the demo-
cratic platform at San Francisco?
Who wrote the republican platform
at Chicago? The same man wrote
them both, under order from the
United States chamber of COM
merce.'
Mr.. Mills told of the development
and growth of the chamber of com,

Big Crolud Hears Mills Disclose

He told how people had warned
him when he first entered the fight
of the farmers in North Dakota, of
the great power and Prussian tao
tics of the Minneapolis chamber of
commerce. When he went to that
city "to look the animal over"
Mr.. Mills said, he learned that the
Minneapolis body had no powers OF
it's own whatever, and that it was
merely a local operating-p point for
the United States chamber of COM
merce. He told how, during the
war; the national chamber of COM
merce had advocated the importa-
ton of millions of Chinese into the
country for cheap labor ''just for q
starter"
There is not an organization,
not a church, not a school in the
country into which the United
States chamber of commerce does
not try to get its Shiny fingers"
the speaker declared. s'If it cannot
control a union, it sends its gum
men out after the members!" Col
lege professors who are not useful
to it are dismissed. as was tho
case here when DR.. Levine was dis
charged from the University of
Montana because he wrote a book
on taxation.
He told of the coal strike, and of
the people who, at the orders Of
the United States chamber of COM
merce, had whined about the 'in-
nocent public" "When workingmen
are on strike for decent living con-
ditions," he declared, there is no
innocent public!'

1t remains only for Green to ask
his friend Cox to declare at once
to the people of the United States
that 'private gunmen and private

There is no mistaking the labor
sentiment with reference to the re-
