Fifteen months OF continuous SER
vice on original Fisk tire equipment
for a distance OF 11,17o miles before
the first change was made, is the ex-
perience OF a Cleveland, o., car own
er. On April 4. 1918, he bought a
small model touring car, specifying
S3x1-2 Fisk tires. On July 2, 1919
with odometer showing a mileage OF
l1I7O he was forced to Retire
on one wheel. The other three tires
stood up for considerable greater
distance. The car, weighing a. ton
and a half, was used over all kinds
OF Ohio roads.
The results from using FISK tires
were so pleasing to this Cievelander'
who is general manager OF large
eompany. that he now insists that
every car belonging to HIS company
is Fisk equipped.

"Citizens, delay is dangerous; i'm

Hearst denounced the action Of the

Referring TO the resolution adopt

says:

any progressive except dead pro-
gressive: that It considers a dead pro-

Striking Enjoined by Supreme Court

Striking Enjoincd by Supreme Court
Rochester. N. y..June 1s.-Su-
preme Court Justice Adolph Roden-
beck this morning handed down one
OF the most important court decis-
ions on matters involving the rights
OF labor ever made in the American
courts. The decision grants a per-
manent Injunction to the Michaels-
Stern Company. clothing manufac-
turers. against the Amalgamated Clo-
thing Workers and Sidney Hillman,
its president, forbidding them to in
terfere with the plaintiff in the con-
duet OF his business.
In addition to the Injunction the
court ruled that the plaintiff is en-
titled to collect damages from the de-
PENDANTS for strike injuries, and In
asmuch as the defendant national un-
ion has an income from its workers
dues that run into many hundreds
OF thousands OF dollars annually, the
argumet over damages that will fol-
low todays decision will probably be
as bitterly fought as was the suit over
the injunction.

MAKERS DE-
MAND MORE PAY

Wage increases ranging from to
rs per cent. over prevailing schedules
have been asked by employees In the
clothing industry in Baltimore It was
learned yesterday after conclusion Of
the conference OF workers and en-
ployers that had been in session for
several days at Southern Hotel
These demands were made, it is
said, despite the fact that figures
presented at the conference showed
that since 1915 the average rate OF
increase for men and women employ
ed in the clothing industry in Bal
timore has been close to 500 per cent.
This, it was stated, is more than
double the increase made TO workers
in other trades and industries in
this and other cities
The conference ended shortly be-
fore noon and the wage increase is in
the hands of the board of arbitra-
ton, composed of Judge Jacob VI.
Moses, of Baltimore; DR.. w. VI. Lier-
son. of Rochester; James Mullenbacb
and II. A. Mills, of Chicago. None OF
these II vast stated is interested in
the clothing business except Mr.. Null
| lenbach.
No decision is expected for a month
/ or more, because il was agreed at the
conference that prior to rendering a
verdict the adjudicators first get in
I touch with what Is being done in 9th
ercities to establish a market agree
ment. This, 1t was stated. will take
some time. because there are now in
progress in several large cities con-
ferences along the same lines and
other conferences are being called
| This showed that we need not expect
cheaper clothing at any time soon
In 1915 the average wage scale paid
workers in various departments rang
ed from six to sixteen dollars a week
and in 1919 from s24 to $50 ant
now they want more.

SANTA FE SUPERINTENDENT
DIEu IN AMARILLO
Amarillo, Texas, June l4.-The re-

Amarillo. Texas, June 14.-The re-
mains OF T. II. Sears were taken TO
Ottawa, Kansas for burial this morn
ing after funeral services at the st.
Andrews Episcopal church here. Mr..
Sears died Saturday night from pneu-
monia after an illness OF about ten
days.
Mr.. Sears was sixty-seven years OF
age and had been in railway service
fifty years, beginning as brakeman
In the sprnng OF 1870. He came to
the Santa Fe Railway in 1885 and
remained with this road after that
time except for four years during
which he was division superintend-
ent OF the Colorado and Southern at

Mr.. Sears became general super
intendent OF the southern district OF
Western lines OF the Santa Fe with
headquarters at Amarillo, Texas, on
July /, 1914. This district includes
the lines from Wellington, Kansas, to
Belen, New Mexico and the Pecos
Valley and Panhandle lines.
Mr.. Sears is survived by his Wife
three sons and three daughters. Hav-
iag been married August 7, 1870,
the fiftieth anniversary would have
been celebrated this summer.
Mr.. Sears was a capable and con-
scientious official. Frank and
straightforward he was respected
and liked by his superiors, the en-
ployes. and the public. His passing
therefore is generally regretted by
all who knew him.
