than working for some time at high

CALDER SAYS CONTROL
OF COAL MINES WILL BE
PUT BEFORE CONGRESS

Upon his return to Washington this
week Senator William NJ Calder. OF
New York, chairman OF the Senate
Committee on Reconstruction, de
clared nothing had occurred to change
his previous declared purpose TO pre-
sent legislation extending govern
ment control over coal mining lie had
just completed a three weeks tour of
the country with the committee hear
ing testimony and investigating of
conditions.
"The promise OF the coal opera
tors to clean house has not been
fulfilled" said Senator Calder. THE
ousting of the spectators only slight
ly betters conditions. and there Is no
assurance but that the spectators
will be with us again next year. The
so-called efforts of the operators TO
reform themselves do not show prom.
ise OF perseverance believe the
same conditions prevail today as four
weeks ago when Senator Walter e.
Edge Joined me In a statement adyo-
eating government control unless the
situation was remedied.n
Senator Calder said he did not like
the word naturalization" when ap-
piled to any given industry because
OF its soviet implication" Then be
added "But since there is no eYi.
denee that the coal men have made
up their minds to solve their own
problem of a fair distribution at fair
price, government supervision Is nee
essary."
The plan which 1t is understood

gress at opening of the short ses-
sion next Monday Includes supervision
OF all coal mined. the fixing OF prices

AMERICAN LABOR MOVEMENT
IN FULL SYMPATHY WITH
CAUSE OF IRISH PEOPLE

That the Labor Movement in Amer.
lea is destined to become the center
of activity In the matter of demand.
ing freedom for the people of Ireland
Is the belief of r. J. Wind, secretary
of the Labor Bureau of the American
Commission on Irish independence, in
Ia statement Recently given ont hy
him.
Mr.. Wind has recently communi
Gated with the $50 Central Labor
Councils in the United States, re-
questing that they appoint voluntary
committees to cooperate with the La
Dor Bureau. to make effective the res.
olution of the American Federation of
Labor, adopted at its convention In
Montreal, pledging support to the Re-
public OF ireland
The promptness with which these
labor bodies have responded to such
request, and the letters which have
been received from the labor press the
country over. furnish conclusive evil
dence of the rapidly growing senti-
ment favorable to Ireland's cause.
and of the willingness of such bodies
and such press to cooperate in every
way possible to gain for her five mil
lions of sufferers, that liberty and
freedom so essential TO human happi-
ness.
The heroic death of Terence Nc
Swiney has appalled, thinking people
all over the world The fight of the
Irish people has been the admiration
of all peoples. The terrorism. tyran-
ny, murder--the awful atrocities be
ing committed daily in Ireland by the
imperialist government of England,
have aroused the ire of freemen every
where, and made stain upon the flag
of England that years alone can
erase
Many are the instances recorded OF
cold-blooded murder of unarmed peo-
pie, the burning of towns and villages
dragging from bed in the dead OF
night, young men, to be shot to death
in the presence of their aged parents,
wives and sisters, committed by saw.
age hirelings of the English govern
ment. The inhuman treatment thus
accorded the people of ireland has SO
reinforced the power of moral infu-
ence in the world as to challenge for.
ever the power of governments to rule
through physical force.
Such is the American worlman's
love of fair play, that he cannot well
enjoy his right of life, liberty and the
pursuit OF happiness, while his broth.
ers in Ireland are compelled to en-
dure the terrible oppression imposed
upon them by English militarists. III

MANIPULATION or PRICES

CAUSES FARMERS STRIKE

Western wheat growers have de
rlsred q strike against gamblers who

are on strike against price fixing by
The New York Cotton Exchange. With

creased railroad tariffs. farmers are
being ground between the upper and
neither mllstones Southern planters
are closing cotton gins and keeping
their product off the market until as
sured fair price.
The strike Of western farmers was
brought about as a protest against the
Chicago wheat pool which has as
sumed to arbitrarily fix prices. The
United States Wheat Growers Asso-
cation. with a membership of 10000
in Kansas Oklahoma, Texas, Nebras-
IA and South Dakota, has issued a
PROCLAMATION urging all its members
to refrain from selling until such time
as the price of good wheat Is In
creased to So a bushel at growers

vas taken there has been a rapid
ialling off OF receipts In Chicago, Min

that was not intended to fall into the

this instrument OF destruction was. OF
course, that the American workmen
would receive more money il he quit
his union and worked under the so
called American" or open shop"
plan, under which the writer said, the
worker could get more money II he
would produce more, which meant
that he could produce more IL he
worked longer hours. In one SEN
tence, the writer said the worker was
not producing enough; In another sen.
tence. the worker was said To have
produced a large surplus. In fact,
the article WAS intended as text
