Spirited PLEA
BY WATER WITCH
Fire Company Denies Bluff
ing Council or Being
Anyway Bolsheviki
TO STAY IN SERVICE
UP TO LAST PENNY

A wealth Of sentiment is contained
In the appeal made to City Council
by the Water Witch fire company TO
grant the $500 increase asked for it
10 maintain It's efficiency throughout
the coming year.
Wednesday night the appeal was
presented by a committee composed
OF Charles Braun. Paul .Dougherty
and jeremiah Murphy at the hearing
held by Council on the fire depart
ments needs. Its text is as follows
Mr.. President and Members OF
Council:-You are well aware OF our
mission before you this evening, but
you are probably still doubtful OF
our harmless and peaceful bearing, as
you had good and sufficient reasons
to believe after reading the news
papers last Wednesday, that we
would enter here behind a red nag.
armed TO the teeth. Nor would It
have surprised us TO have seen a pla-
toon OF policemen and a couple OF
machine guns behind the presidents
chair ready for action.
"But as we see neither the police
nor the machine guns. we take Il that
you treated those articles as bunk
or perhaps you consider you have
called our bluff as today's paper
states. No gentlemen, you have not
called our bluff; for the one big rea-
son that the Water Witch Are com
pany never made any such bluff nor
did they ever have any such BOlshe-
Wiki. anarchistic-bred idea. Our COM
pany always has been, Is now and we
hope always viii be 100 per cent,
American, and we use clean cut
American tactics only.
We think we proved this during
the war, II the Water Witch com
pany were composed OF the type OF
men 10 even think OF such action.
would they have inaugurated the
campaign that gave 10 the American
Red Cross 5000; would they have IN
augurated that enjoyable river ride
that they gave 10 the hundreds OF re-
turned soldiers and sailors7
Gentlemen, we wan TO impress Il
upon you that the members OF the
Water Witch fire company were
highly indignant on seeing the ar
tlcles printed in the papers coupled
up with their name. We were hot
under the collar and had just cause
20 be. We have been put in a false
and untrue light before the public
We. cannot too emphatically deny any
such course.
I'VE came TO you several weeks
ag0 asking for an addition OF $500
TO our present appropriation. Bui
we somehow failed to show you that
we absolutely must have this
amount So we come 10 you again
tonight 10 appeal to you as man d
man to try honestly and abOyl
board 10 convince you that with less
than the $500 increase It Will be ut
terly impossible for us 10 continue
TO give anything like the eiilclenc.
that Is needed,
DO not for one moment conclud,
from thie remark that we demand
$500 or refuse TO sign any contract
Evening journal., 1920-06-25

Our company wants us to distinctly
impress upon you Councilmen and
the public at large that, regardless Of
the amount you give us, we will con-
tinue TO fight fires as effectively as
we possibly can, and as long as we
have a cent to keep going. Under
that policy the citizens cannot re-
prOach us. In other words we will
die with our boots On-if We still
have any boots.
some Of you have asked why Il is
that some OF the companies are en-
tirely clear OF debt while others. TO
use an old expression, are head over
heels in debt? Some have advanced
the statement mat the Indebted COM
panles are the result OF poor nnan-
clering We defy anyone 10 show
where poor ilnanciering Is the cause
OF the indebtedness or the Water
Witch fire company. There are as
many reasons for the differences be-
tween the finances Of all tho cOmpan-
les as there are companies.
You Will be highly efficient and
extremely careful but unforeseen
events Will crop up that you have no
control over. High efficiency costs at
first. but 1t saves money afterwards
Just as we try 10 be 100 per cent

tell you what procedure 10 take TO

I'VE are not again tonight going TO

Sympathetic Strike
Upheld By NY. Judge

New York City-Use Of the sym
pathetic strike and boycott as weap-
ons by organized labor in its battles
with capital is upheld as legal, in a
decision handed down here by Fed
eral Judge Augustus N. Hand.
He denied in this decision the eX-
tension Of a previous injunction re-
straining the Old Dominion Trans
portation Company from refusing to
accept for shipment merchandise de-
livered to their piers by non-union
truckers.
The temporary injunction was
granted originally on a test case by
the Merchants Association, which.
sorely hit by the boycott instituted
by the union teamsters Of the city,
resOrted to every means to compel
the Old Dominion Transportation
Company to accept goods delivered
by non-union men As their couu-
sci they employed Walter Gordon
Merritt, long noted as an efficient
anti-labor union lawyer.
Judge Hand maintains in his de-
cision that neither the Lever Act.
the Sherman Antitrust Law, the
United States Shipping Act nor the
Clayton Act are violated by the boy
colts of the teamsters' union and
the transportation company.
In seeking the injunction the com
plainant had alleged that there was
a conspiracy between the Old Do
minion Company and the unior
teamsters not to handle his goods
when he delivered them to the piel
by way of non-union truckmen.

If this movement to restrict operat-

ment says, our economic ills will BE-
cured. Then "thc worlds woes will
take wing" All that is required t.
restore peace and prosperity is to
crowd the bread lines with hungry

Now they are to get back to hard

WALL STREET IS PLEASED

Why should Wall Street not be
pleased?
Did not the government of the
United States give the railroads
MORE than they asked for?
The Eastern group of railroads
asked 1915 per cent increase in
rates and got 40 per cent. The
Western group asked 1928 per cent
in rates and received 80 per cent.
1t was considered that the roads were
too conservative" in making their
estimates.
The United States Government
GUARANTEES a return to the rail
road owners.
The same government cut the rail
road workers demands in half and
guaranteed them nothing, not even a
job.
Of course, WALL STREET, is
more than pleased with the United
States Government.

Tax on Land Values
Stirs Big Interests

Washington, Sept. 4.-Opposition
to the Ralston-Nolan bill for a l per
cent tax on land values is fostered
by big interests and professional
farmers, says the Farmers Open Fo-
rum, bulletin Of allied farmers or
carnations that maintain legisla-
tive Headquarters in this city.
The bill eXcmpts land values up to
$4,000. and the Open Forum cites
statistics to show that this measure
will not affect bona fide farmers,
whose land values average much less
than $4,000.
The Open Forum refers to the 1907
official report Of the New York city
tax commission, which stated that
the assessed value Of the land of six
square miles in the neighborhood of
Central Park (the most exclusive
part of the city, is greater than the
assessed value of all the real estate
of the state of Missouri.
"In the New York Times Of May
IS" says the Open Forum, els dis
played on the front page the story
of a $40,000,000 real estate deal. The
project is the improvement of two
city blocks by buildings to cost $25,-
100000. The land is to be leased
not sold-for p years, at an aggre-
gate rental Of $15,000,000 or an
average of over 100000 year.
IF any farmer will take a little
time to figure what the value C
these two city blocks is that can
command a bare land value rental of
100000 a year, estimated on any
reasonable interest return basis, he
will get a pretty clear idea Of what
is meant by land values, and where
the great bulk of land values is to be
| found"

FORMER ENEMIES
AS BEDFELLOWS

During the war, nothing foul
enough could be said about the Ger
mans. They should have been wiped
off the face of the earth to satisfy
many Hun-eaters.
Now that the war is over, they
have changed into angels.
For the past three months, Ger
man sailors who during the war man
ned submarines and sent many a
Danish boat to the bottom, have
been used by the self-same Danish
shipping companies as scabs.
Oh what our capitalists don't do
for the sake of money. How will
ing they are to forget for the sake
of dollars.
Dear to the heart of the CAPT
talist, is the scab.
