The congestion OF Chicago down.

The only way to improve conditions
would be to shut out all traffic from

The adoption of the street island

IN HepUBLICE EYE
"Indian Princess" Wins Victory

Mrs. Richard Croker, Sr., some
times called the Indian Princess"
has come out with flying colors from
the litigation which has kept her Of
late In the public eye. The circuit
court of Palm Beach county has
found that Richard Croker, Sr., is
competent to manage his own affairs
and that his wife has not unduly in.
fluenced him in order fraudulently to
get possession of his estate. The de.
cislon, after reciting the charges
made by the sons and the defense
put In by the elder Croker and his
wife, sets forth that the whole mat
ter resolves itself into the answers to
two questions.
"The first question is, Is Rich
ard Croker, ST., too enfeebled in mind
to manage his own affnirs2
"The next question is, Is he so
under the domination of his wife's
undue influence that he has permitted
her to fraudulently gain possession

EOGEWATER PIMPS.

People are getting tired of reading
about Edgewater pimps and their

We notice that Police Lieutenant
Cudmore Is quoted as saying that the

Well why not abolish them.

famous as headquarters for bogus

show that they are willing to go
into any kind of conference with
labor without their, fingers on the
trigger, INDEPENDENTLY it is go
ing to be pretty hard to convince
the average worker that it is not
the best policy to send their best
"battlers" to try to deal with them
Ninety per cent of the strikes in
in the timber industry have been
forced by the employers, the strike
of 1917 was forced by them, several
weeks were spent by union officers
trying to get even a conference, but
their efforts went for naught. Those
same employers are in the industry
today, only their war profits have
made them more arrogant than be-
fore, most all of them are quite
active in the Loyal Legion, they do
not believe in a joint agreement or
any kind of an agreement, except
an agreement among themselves to
| fight labor. So | say, as long as
their influence is felt in the Four L
there is no chance for real benefits.
| am not in agreement with the
Four l. fundamentally. On the con-
trary l regard it as both unsound
and extremely dangerous to the well
fare of the workers in the timber
industry.
The writer in the Four L Bull
letin speaks of the better spirit
underlying Was it a part of that
better spirit that impelled Loyal
Legion to send alien strikebreakers to
Stanwood, Wash, to scab on exser-
vice men? Was it a part of that
better spirit that impelled the Board
of Directors last January to declare
for the "non-union shop?" Is it a
part of that better spirit being made
manifest when organizers of the
Loyal Legion say that men who vote
against the Loyal Legion are not
American citizens? Is it a part of
that better spirit when they call men
slackers who refuse to let employers
make raid on their pay checks to
get Four l. dues? 1t is a part of
that better spirit being shown when
men are discharged because they
refuse to join the Four l.? The
Four l. does point out much that
can be truthfully termed "better
spirit?"
Organized labor has done more to
prevent strikes than any other force
in this country. 1t has presented
more constructive programs, secured
more humane legislation than any
other agency in America. 1t does
not breed suspicion or hatred. The
loyalty of labor helped to win the
war, the loyalty of labor will restore
normal conditions in our country.
So far as the international Union
of Timberworkers is concerned, it
has had the combined opposition of
the employers, the "wobblies" and
the Loyal Legion. The Loyal Legion
has remained silent as an organiza-
ton so far as our eight hour move
ment in the East is concerned, if
the employers could defeat US there,
the Four L would regard that as

their opportunity. Any man with
inc slightest intelligence knows that
The eight hour day must be made
general throughout the industry.
For any organization to hold out
the delusion that it can continue
indefinitely in one section of the
country alone, is to deceive its own
membership. In conclusion the writ
er in the Four l. Bulletin states that
the local organization has not suf-
fered from "too much boss" but too
little. If he can show me where
the employers have missed anything
in that direction | would be real
glad to have it pointed out, every
thing that the entire organization
has ever done, has an employers as
ISOLATION label pasted all over it.
Gentlemen, when you declared for
the non union shop, you betrayed
every worker in the timber industry,
you aligned your organization with
every labor hating organization in
this country. By that act you de-
clared war on yourselves as well as
the rest. If there had been any
doubt before that the Four l. was
boss controlled" and there was
none, by that act you removed all
possibility of doubt When you de-
clared for low wages, long hours
or any condition that the employers
may see fit to impose. 1t is not the
things you say you are going to do
that count, it is the things that
happen that go to make up the sum
total
Every increase in wages that has
been secured in the past two years
has come because of the presence
Of locals of the Timberworkers
Union. In places where you have
had the field to yourselves, the wages
are lower than where there are I.U.T. !
locals. The majority of the men are
well aware of the true state of af-
fairs, we are not worrying about
the future.

Spokane Transfers Out
The following communication was
received from President W. NJ.
Short of the State Federation of
Labor and the request therein com
piled with:
Seattle, Wash, July 18th, 1920.
TO Affiliated Unions, Greeting:
The members of Transfers Local
No. 500, of Spokane, have been en-
gagged since May 14th of this year
in bitter struggle with the Asso-
ciated Industries of that city for the
preservation of their organization
For many years the most friendly
and peaceful relationship has existed
between the Team Owners and the
Union Transfers of Spokane, and
when the time for negotiating a new
agreement came, last spring, all in
dependent concerns Immediately met
the provisions of the new agree
ment, excepting those large con-
Germs which had become affiliated
with the Associated Industries, and
who, by their membership in that
organization, have been practically
prohibited from signing an agree
ment with the Union.
The Transfers are putting up a
splendid fight and if given the
moral backing of the entire Labor
Movement of the State will posi-
lively win the contest. The Diamond
Ice Company, of Spokane, is the
main offender and any opportunity
that may present itself to all trades
unionists throughout the State to
retaliate against this unfair concern
should Immediately be taken advan-
tage Of. The workers of the State
should see to it that no shipments
going to Spokane are handled by any
unfair teaming concern, and the full
est moral support in every possible
way should be given the striking
teamsters of that vicinity.
Kindly do not file this communica-
ton, but paste it on the wall of your
union office so that the necessity for
all assistance possible will be con-
stantly kept before your member
ship.
Fraternally yours,
w. NJ. SHORT,
President, Washington State

Join last winter or lose their jobs.

that there is nothing to the or

concerned. Any organization that
takes advantage Of the economic nee

On Monday one Of the boys ap-
piled for work at a local mill He
was told that there was no work,
that lots Of men were asking for
work since the mills had gone on an
eight-hour basis. And then this local
employer took time by the forelock
and explained to this worker that
when the mills run ten hours they
hired a lot more men than now
that many men were needed as clean
up men, etc. But that now on the
close margin that the operators were
running, that it was necessary to cut
down the working force to the very
lowest minimum. That is Just a
sample Of the kind Of dope that is
being peddled by some Of the en-
plOyers.

WHITEWASH


Q0eries for a durable wlitelRash
reach us every spring. We repeat
the formula for the so-called Gov
eminent whitewash::"
Shake one-half bushel fresh lime
with boiling water, covering it to
keep in the steam. Strain the liquid
through a fine sieve and add seven
pounds of fine salt, previously dis
solved in YARN WAGER; three pounds
ground rice, boiled to a thin paste
and stirred in boiling hot; one-half
pound bolted gilder's whiting; one
pound white glue, which first soak
in cold water until swollen up, then
melt over fire, avoiding burning
it. Add five gallons hot water tt
the mixture, stir well, and let stand
a few days covered dp. When ready
to use the wash, make it boiling hot.
A pint of this mixture will cover
nearly a square yard.-The Farm
