A New Labor Alignment
By Paul Hanna

A rival to the American Federation of Labor
is on the way to be born The place and date of its
deliverance are not disclosed, for 'Herod is angry
and his orders have gone out that every infant
rival of the A. F. of L. shall be slain in the
cradle
Through the wilderness of coal strikes steel
strikes and railroad strikes that have failed, John
the Baptist, in numerous guises, has walked up
and down proclaiming the near advent of new
labor alignment which would know how to bring
deliverance to those who are weary of defeat and
heavy-laden with under-paid toll.
The messiah has not yet appeared, but the out
law strikes continue, and those who believe in
ultimate salvation by new methods of organize
ton are more numerous than ever. And word has
reached Washington that the aim of the dis
contented will very soon reveal itself in national
convention Of the rebellious groups.
Coal miners, railroad men, textile workers.
machnists and clothing makers are mentioned
among the groups of wage earners who will figure
prominently in the proposed convention.
To form an industrial union, in which the well
fare of any one trade will be the active concern Of
all, is given as the purpose of the restless element
1t will be an effort to claoesce and "Americanize"
the millions of workers who believe in organiza-
tion but who have lost faith in the tactics of the
the American Federation of Labor.
Preliminary to the convention referred to, an
effort is under way to summon conference of
municipal central labor bodies. Its purpose would
be to discuss the recent anti-labor challenge put
forth by the United States Chamber of Com
merce.
Backers of this movement declare it would be
fatal to organized labor to permit the organized
employers of the country to take the offensive as
the Chamber of Commerce has done, without
making formal, responsible and determined re-
ply to the threat Of destruction
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-09-03

No such retort to the employers has been made
OF can be expected, they say, by the A. F. of L.
cabinet, whose members have always opposed both
the theory and practice of solidarity among the
workers like that which is always displayed oy
employers.
1t is deemed significant that here in Washing
ton, where the A. F. of L. influence is strongest
there is strong sentiment in fevor of the special
congress of central labor bodies to return the
challenge of the Chamber of Commerce
Supporting the agitation for convention de-
fnitely to break with the American Federation of
Labor and launch rival founded on the industrial
principle are many men now prominent in the A.
F. of L. who do not intend to participate in the
first step toward secession.
These men are heartily in sympathy with the
movement and will do all in their power
to have it succeed but their idea is to have the
initiative taken by those large groups of miners,
railwaymen and others who in all but the tech
nical sense have already broken with or been ex
PEELED from the parent body
1t is argued there are so many and such bitter
'.
tion would fly asunder if there were any haven
for the rebels to resort to. The function of the
more determined elements named will be to make
the first step and form the rival federation, TO
which the dsgruntled but less enterprising groups
may turn as their particular grievance with the
parent body reaches the breaking point
High officers of the miners and railwaymen are
fully informed of the trend within their unions
and are making every effort possible to COM
promise their troubles before the rival organiza-
tion shall become an accomplished fact
Engineers of the new lineup declare the time
for compromise has passed They are close to the
rank and file and find it tired of trying to make
bricks without straw, and ready to join in the
exodus from economic bondage

Born In a box-car on the way to the
battlefields of Poland last fall, and
with its membership today sadly de-
pleted by casualties, Kosciusko post
of the American Legion, formed out
of the American aviators who COM
pose the famous Kosclusko squadron,
is regarded as the strangest and most
adventurous of the 1900 units of the
veterans organization.
In the fighting about Warsaw when
the fate Of the Polish capital hung In
doubt the Legionnaires of the Kosci-
usko squadron were battling night and
day against the advancing waves of
the bolshevih. When the tide of bat
tie turned and the reds retreated the
machine gun fire from the planes of
the Americans went far to turn their
retreat into a rout.
The men of Kosciusko post are
hardened veterans. A year ago they
signed up for service with the Polish
army after they had flown battle
planes in many engagements against
the Germans in the World war. Sent
out on active service shortly after
their squadron was formed these ad-
venturers fought on every front in

Farmers Must Be Given Immediate Help

AN OFFICIAL statement by the

tion, summarizing its Investigation into
business, Industrial and agricultural
conditions, declares that America ais
facing an agricultural economic con-
dition which. If not intelligently dealt
with, will lead to consequences so
grave as to affect all industry to the
point of imperiling the social order"
The statement says farmers must
be given immediate help in transporta-
tion, finance and labor, and recon-
mends the following as remedial eff
forts which would go a long way to-
ward solving agricultural difficulties:
Preferential treatment In transpor-
tation to all farm produce held for
shipment and to all goods consigned
to farmers which are necessary to con-
duct the business of farming.
More profits for farmers, better dis
tribution systems which would tend to
eliminate middlemen and stabilize
prices.

KEELS Of three United States bat
N tie cruisers were laid in one day
recently. Secretary of the Navy Dan
iels said that 1t was an event believed
to be unprecedented in the history of
shipbuilding when within the space Of
a few hours the keels of three battle
cruisers were laid. One of these ves-
sells, battle cruiser No. 3, the Sara
toga, is being built by the New York
Shipbullding corporation at Camden,
N. j.; the other two, battle cruiser

Ranger.
Similar preliminary work is also be-

ing corporation at its Fore River plant,
where the keel of the Lexington will
be laid very soon.
"These are the largest and fastest
battle cruisers In the world" said Sec.
retary Daniels. "They were original.
ly authorized in 1916 as a part of the
three-year building program, but their
construction was suspended during the
war. Since that time their designs
have been redrawn to take full advan-
tage of the lessons learned from war
experience, with the result that the
vessels are materially larger and more
powerful than at first contemplated"
Famous names in United States
naval history are some Of these, and
most famous is that of the Constitu-
tion. In defeating the Guerriere in
the War of 1872 the Constitution won
the victory that made the United
States navy. The original Constitu-
tion lies at the Boston navy yard,
though launched in 1897. 1t was pro-
posed to dismantle her in 1928, but
Holmes poem, "Old Ironsides," saved
her.

mother country, making up the differ

the Austro-Hungarians use only a
negligible quantity of tea.
The coffee plant is a shrub which,
under cultivation, grows from four to
six feet high. In its wild state It
grows three or four times as high as
In its cultivated state. The dwarf

HONOR TO CENTRALIA DEAD
National Commander and Party Visit
Graves of Legion Men Killed Dur
ing City Parade.

The head of the American Legion
journeyed all the way to Centralia,
WASH, to pay homage at the graves
of the four men who we're slain by
members of the I. w. w. last Armis-
tice day. Two hundred Legion men
and women accompanied Franklin
D'0iier, their national commander, on
his visit to the scene of the tragedy,
and stood with bowed heads in Noun
tain View cemetery as he pledged the
Legion to everlasting reverence to the
memory of its martyred members.
There was nothing of rancor in
D'Olier's reference to the men who
killed the peaceful paraders. But the
speech served warning, as hundreds of
other Incidents of Legion history of
the last year have served warning,
that the Legion is n wall of steel
against all advocates Of violence,
whether they dub themselves "wob-
biies" or parlor bolshevists.
81 come here as to the shrine of the
American Legion" said D'Olier, stand
ing at the foot of the grave of War
ren Grimm, killed at the head OF the
Armistice day parade. "Centralia will
mean to the Legion what Bunker Hill,
Gettysburg and Chateau Thierry mean
to the nation. At these places, the
spirit of America met the enemy and
triumphed. Here, in Centralia, the
rp.rit of the American Legion likewise
met the enemy of our country and tri-
umphed."
AS representative of the nearly two
million members of the Legion, DOL
fer laid a wreath of flowers on Grimm's
grave. In the crowd were Grimm's old
friends in Centralla and friends of
Dale Hubbard. Ben Casagranda and
Arthur McElfresh, who also were slain.
at is fitting that here today we
should renew our pledge of patriotism
and devotion to law and order and
serve notice on the forces of anarchy
that more than four million ex-service
men, who fought and defeated the foe
without, are now sworn to fight TO the
death the foe within, who would work
injury to our sacred institutions. Our
Inspiration shall be our martyrs and
the restraint shown by their outraged
comrades. BY dedicating ourselves to
the defense of our flag and all that
IL means, a defense based on fairness
and Justice, we shall prove that our
comrades In France and Centralia have
not died In vain," the commander con-
cluded.

Pittsburgh, says communication to
the National Geographic society, Is
sued as the third of a series of bull
letins on "Where Our Imports Come
From"
This consumption now perhaps is
nearer 3.000OO0,O00 pounds, and, In
the United States alone 40 per cent
more coffee was drunk during the fis-
cal year 1919-192O than In the preced-

Three-fourths of the worlds coffee
is grown in Brazil, a country that has
become rich from its coffee industry
alone. Europe and North America
bear approximately the same relation
to the consumption of coffee that Bra

continents using nearly four-fifths Of
all the coffee the world produces.
