Legion Men Are Warned

Washington - Members of the
American Legion must set an ex-
ample for law and order, declared
Franklin D'Olier, national commander
of this organization, in a speech in
this city. The speaker condemned
self-appointed vigilance committees
who disregard law and properly con-
stituted authority.
Neither national, state nor any
local organization has the right nor
will it presume to take the law into
its own hands or interfere with proper
authority We must always clearly
bear in mind that any disposition on
the part Of individual members of the
American Legion or Of local posts to
take law into their own hands, or to
act as self constituted vigilance COM
mittees in disregard of lawful and
properly constituted authority, is not
only subversive of the principles and
ideals of the American Legion, but
will weaken and tend to destroy our
influence for good in this country.
"In our effort to assist in the main
tenance of law and order, the Amer
ican Legion must itself set an example
of lawful and orderly action. The
American Legion has become so
strong that we need fear no force
from without-but let US be sure that
no overzealous or thoughtless OF un-
fair act of our own occur to weaken
our influence for good or ALLEVIATE the
support of all true Americans"

FAVOR GAG LAW
POmerene and Harding Vote for Cummins Bill
The Senate Would Hold Workers to Job and
Abandon American Idea of Freedom

Washington-By vote of 46 to 80
the senate passed the Cummins rail-
road bill, with its "can't-strike" pro-
vision, thereby abandoning the Amer
ican ideal that workers cannot be held
to their employment under threat of
Imprisonment and fine. The two SEN
ators from Ohio, Pomerene and Har-
ding, voted in favor of the bill.
Prior to the vote Senator LaFoll-
cite offered a substitute to postpone
railroad legislation for two years.
This plan was favored by the A. F.
of L., railroad brotherhoods and many
farmers organizations that urged
that a test of governmental opera
tions of railroads be made under nor
NAL conditions. The La Toilette mo-
tion was defeated by vote of IS to
il. The senators who favored post
ponement are Ashurst, Chamberlain,
Gronna, Henderson, johnson (South
Dak.), Kendrick, La Toilette, Norris,
Nugent, Sheppard, Walsh (Mont.).
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1920-01-02

The house passed a railroad bill
last November which is known as the
Esch bill. 1t does not penalize strikes.
The two legislative acts will now be
considered at a conference consisting
of 10 members, equally divided be-
tween both branches Of congress.
The labor sections of the Cum
Minis bill provide that where differ
ences can not be adjusted between
managers and employees, through a
system of boards, the matter will be
passed upon by the transportation
board, whose verdict shall be final.
A strike is made punishable by fine
or Imprisonment, or both. The trans
portation board is nominated by the
president and it's members, according
to advocates of the bill, will be men
Of high ideals and disinterestedness.
The American Federation of La
Dor, together with the railroad broth
erhoods, have waged a continuous
fight against the anti-strike feature
Of the Cummins bill.

Coal Board is Named
Owners Ready to BaIk

Washington - The president has
named Henry M. Robinson, John P.
White and Rembrandt Peale, mem
bers of the board to consider questions
arising out of the recent coal strike.
Mr.. Robinson represents the public.
He is a California business man and
member of the presidents industrial
conference now in session in this city
Mr.. White represents the miners. He
is an ex-president of the United Mine
Workers and was an assistant to Fuel
Administrator Garfield during the
war. Mr.. Peale is a Pennsylvar ii
coal owner.
The creation of this board, with
power to make decisions as to wages
and coal prices, was part of the
strike settlement, according to At
torney General Palmer and Acting
President Lewis. That the presiden.
accepts this theory is indicated in his
statement to the members Of the coal
board that he has been informed that
"the operators have generally agreed
to the plan"
To these views the coal owners dis
sent. They seem to be preparing an
alibi if the boards verdict is agairs1
them, and in statement declare that
they were not consulted as to the
terms and conditions of the strike
settlement between the government
and the miners. To this Attorney
General Palmer replies that "it would
be an amazing repudiation of their
own statements if the operators do
not acquiesce in the plan which their
official representatives. have repeate +
ly agreed to-"
The coal owners accepted the Gar
field strike settlement plan which
also provided for a coal board. But
the powers of the Garfield board
would be merely consultative and ad-
visory, while the present board has
power to make decisions and replaces
the functions of the fuel administra.
tor, who has since resigned.

Gas Company Wants Increase

The Newark Natural Gas and Fuel
Co., in lengthy communication in
formed the city council last Monday
night that new schedule of rates
had been filed with the Ohio Utilities
Commission and asked council to
adopt the same. This increase, ac-
cording to the communication, is not
for the purpose of increasing the
revenue of the company but merely
to conserve gas which it is claimed
is becoming scarce in this section of
the country. The proposed rates are
48c per 1000 for the first 5000 feet,
53c for the next 5000 and 63c for all
over 10000 feet, less a discount of &C..
The communication was laid on the
table to be taken up by the incoming
new council.
