lage of Cinderella today to see how
"the other half lives. There was
encountered young man who,
having once been a member of the
United Mine Workers, should be
qualified to pass Judgment on both
sides. This is what he had to say:
anybody who belongs to the
United Mine Workers is a damn
fool"
This young man, Arthur Miller,
joined the United Mine Workers
last summer after eight years ex-
perience as an open shop work
man. because he fell for the
organizers sweet singing" He
promptly quit his job at the Syca-
more Coal company's mine and gave
up his boarding house, falling back
upon five dollars week strike ben
eft. A week Of idleness was enough
to cause him to sever his new at
filiations.
Changed Overnight
He changed overnight from a red
neck" to a "yaller dog" taking
back his old place as main line
motorman" or the driver of one Of
the companys electric mules.
We'll. eight dollars a day looks
better to me than five dollars a
week." was his explanation of why
he is "off the union forever"
Superintendent Thomas Of the
Sycamore operations talked about
life in the village of Cinderella.
The company built houses there
that are rented to miners at about
four dollars room, while rents in
Williamson average ten dollars a
room. They are equipped with
electric lights and running water,
the latter being filtered in the COM
pany's plant. They get their fuel
for a dollar a month.
Thomas denied the strikers
charge that they were compelled to
buy supplies at the company's gen.
eral store and declared even trav-
cling men bought goods there be-
cause they we're cheaper and of
better quality.
The teachers in the mining vii
| lagos get a hundred dollars a
month from the county, he said, to
which the company adds fifteen to
twenty to insure competent in
structors for the children. Nearly
every miners home contains q
piano or organ. Preachers salaries
also are paid by the company and
q model playground is furnished for
the children. He summed up his
attitude towards unionism as fol-
lows: .--
Want to Run Mines.
Unions want to take all the an
thority away from officials and run
the mines themselves. The COM
pany Is willing to do everything
possible for the welfare of the men
and their families but 1t insists or
the right to administer its own at
fairs. We employ about 400 men
here in normal times. We are work
ing now at half capacity because
of the strike. Even under ordinary
conditions there is always worb
here for anybody who asks for it
But under the union rule We
couldn't hire a man who applied
for . Job even if he had unioI
card. We first would have to ash
the permission Of the unions com.
mtttee. Union men strike over
most trivial things. The union OF

BY Associated Press.
Chicago, Aug. 13.-Four Thousand
more children-aree workine in Chica

to Clyde A.Brown. acting director OF

The increase in child labor is said to
De general In the middle west but ex-
ceptions are noted in Missouri Kan

Necessity Of the child helping the
FAMILY meet the high cost of living,
the pulling power Of higher wages
and scarcity of adult labor together
with the discovery by employers that
women and children often could take
the place Of men were cited by Mr.
Brown among reasons for a similar
increase in child labor in other parts
OF the United States.
Minnesota officials report that child
labor is nearly doubled in that state,
The greatest increase, they say. is
among children of the white collar
class whose parents have been forced
by rising prices to permit their chill

FARE GOES UP If WAGES DO.
Cedar Rapids Council Told Stree
Car Fare MAY be Raised,

.
Cedar Rapids. Aug. 13.-An eight
cent fare now appears probable as a
result Of notice served on the city
council by street railway men that
they must have more pay.
w. T. Palmer, president of the To-
cal union OF street railway men. who
appeared before the city commits
sfoners accompanied by A. c. Millsap
Frank Hoover. James Tolson and
Moffet Mills. members OF the local
unions executive board. said that no
definite increase in pay was asked
at this time but that it was their
wish to inform the council that they
intended to apply to the street car
companies for an increase.
IAN eight-cent fare has been sug-
gested." said Mr.. Palmer, ito enable
us to get this increase but Of course
IT. is impossible to say just now what
the fare will be-"
Attention was called by the street
car men to a recent decision by the
supreme court of this state in the
case Of the Ottumwa Railway and
Light Company vs.. the city OF OF
tumwa which holds that city coun-
Gil has no power to enter into a
binding contract with a street car
company for rate of fare.
In this connection City Attorney
o. N. Elliott said: The franchise of
the street car company with this city
is not binding on the company for
a six fare and the company has
the right. in view of the supreme
courts decision to charge such fare
as will give a reasonable return but
will not be excessive on the public"

officials say enough returns are In
to indicate considerable increase
lever previous years. Some boys under
16 years have been reported receiving
500 q month.
T. C. jennings, Texas state labor
commissioner reports an increase of
about ten per cent in Texas child
labor over last year Postponement of
compulsory school attendance he says
has been factor.
State Labor Commissioner Claude
2. Connally, Of Oklahoma, says more
violations OF child labor laws have
been brought to the attention or his
office this year than previously, from
which he deduces an increase in
juvenile workers. Connally said the
increase in violations was probably
due to the fact that there was 80 per
cent more jobs in the state than
workers.
A. L. Urick, Iowa state labor COM
missioner, recently reported that ap-
proximately 1000 more permits Had
been issued In the past year to chill
dren between the ages Of IA, and 16
than in the year previous.
Kansas and North Dakota report
child labor in those states as almost
tnegligable. ST. Louis reports de-
crease. Children now employed i'm
that city are stated to number $500,
which is $50 less than were at work
there year ago. The state factory

the cause of the decrease.
