CHICAGO BANKERS ARE ARRAIGNED AS
 STRIKE-BREAKERS
Carpenters Union Charges Wealthy Group With Intimidating and
 Coercing Employers.

l Chicago bankers and wealthy busi ness and professional men are
 arraigned as strike breakers and pick | eters by the I8,ooo members of Car penters' Union, who have filed a pc
 tition in the superior court of Illinois for an injunction restraining them from further activities against work CTS.
 During the past five months, the bill
 says, the "Citizens' Committee to En-
 bankers, lawyers, manufacturers, mer- chants and mrokers, has formed a combination for enforcing the Landis award in the arbitration of building trades disputes.
 With it's combined power and con- trol of money, this combination, it Is charged, has threatened the con- tractors, who are the employers of journeymen carpenters, as well as architects and builders, who pay any of the men more than $I an hour for their work
 The effect of this combination is that employers who attempt to deal fairly with employees are faced with bankruptcy, limitation of credit and discrimination in the purchase of ma terials.
 The contention of the carpenters is that the Citizens Committee is com posed of 1r1en who themselves have no part in the building business, but have set themselves the task of dictating to the men engaged in that business what they may and may not do
 The superior court is requested to enjoin the 1o3 members of the com mittee, including practically every hangers and man of wealth in Chica- go, from further interfering with the business of the employers of the members of the Carpenters Union

Silk arifs Boost

So Expert Testifes, Asserting High Protection" Is Absolutely
 Unwarranted.

Washington, Dec. 23.-Silk manufac- turers in the United States received a tariff protection of $20O,OOO,OO0 in 1919, which translated into prices in the retail stores amounted to tax of $4OO,OOOOOO on the consuming public, H. E. Miles of Racine, Wis, Chairman of the air Tariff League, declared before the Senate Fi- nance Committed
 Protesting against the increased duties which the silk manufacturers have asked for, MT. Miles said the present tariff duties constituted virtual embargo on silks that come in competition with the kinds made in the United States He said his association believed in balancing through tariff the wages paid in for eign countries and in this country but argue that existing rates did more than this so far as the silk industry was con- cerned
 "The silk industry before the war" MT. Miles continued "had the highest protection and paid the lowest wages of any industry in the country. The work ing women are entitled to their silk stock ings and their silk gowns and Conkress should be very careful about adding to the prices that they must pay.'

No further attempts to unionize the iron and steel workers of the country will be made until industrial condi- tions have improved, William Han non, secretary of the executive coun- Gil of national and international or ganizations in the iron and steel in dustry affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, announced this week
 MT. Hannon said that the organ ization machinery of the committee would continue intact, however, and that the organization. campaign would proceed as soon as conditions per mitted
 Reports from all sections of the country" said MT. Hannon, "indicate that business stagnation and conse- quent unemployment has created a condition that would make a steel unionizing campaign impracticable at this time"
 MT. Hannon said that he had just received a letter from Michael Tighe, president of the Amalgamated Asso- citation of Iron, Steel and Tin Work CTS, and who IS chairman of the ex- ecutive council, which asserted that business conditions in the steel indus try were the worst in history" MT. Tighe also considers an organization campaign at this time inopportune.
