to others and which. had been de-
posted with tho bank In trust. That
money might be checked out by the
owners any day. It vas tho business
Of the bank to keep those funds In
such shape that they could be real
tsed on in the ordinary course Of
business. Yet the bank. through .
sleight-of-hAnd performance with
certain pieces Of paper, transformed
two million dollars Of those funds in
to bank capital. and on that basis It
proceeded to do business.
Deposits are placed in a bank to
be used. But the private banker
would very soon find himself en-
tangled in the meshes of the law if he
wer~ to treat tho money Of his dc.
p%ositors as his own capital. The man
who wishes to so into the banking
business Is expected to invest some
money in the business himself. The
law is very clear on that point. He
Is required to have a certain amount
Of capital stock, and hat stock must
be paid for in real money provided
by himself. To safeguard his de-
positors and guarantee the solidity of
his business he must have his own
money permanently invested in it.
This elementary principle was VIC
lated at the very beginning Of the ac-
Invites of the Bank of North Dakota.
The columns of explanation by Mr.,
Cathro merely simmer down to the
fact that the bank started doing bust
ness on wind. and it's experience has
that common to windy enterprises.

always two sides to an argument. In
dustrial peace can be secured only
by the righting of the wrongs suf-
fered by the workers. If the body
of workers has a grievance it can
be adjusted only through cooperation
between the employer and the en-
ployes' representatives. AS all cam
not meet the employer at one time,
it is necessary for the men to select
representatives to carry out their will
as expressed collectively. This right
is identical with that always held by
the employer and never challenged
by the laws or the public" 80 - =.
ointing out that labor is always
patriotic and that it had just recently
worked earnestly, honestly, eff
ciently and unse lfishly for the passage
of legislation supported by the cham
ber, Mr.. Remmers sounded this warm
ing labor does not easily forget.
It is ever vigilant. and sometimes re-
sentful and vindictive. The continu-
alton of cumulative resolutions on this
subject will definitely stamp this
chamber as an enemy of labor, and
all. academic words and sophomore
expressions will not change the opin-
ion of labor: Loud denials will not
help; neither will the lamentations OF

words. Society cannot tolerate them
with safety"
These gentry had found chambers
of commerce fruitful soil in which to
plant the seeds of hate, Mr.. REM
mers declared, and he thought it was
time to call halt on their activ-
tiles. 1.-The chambers paramount

Industry owes an everlasting debt
of gratitude to the conservative men,
bers of organized labor" he contln-
ued. These leaders have, by sens
ible and reasonable elements in their
ranks, and as soon as the present
labor movement is repudiated we will
really learn what hell is.
THE best way to deal with organ
lied labor is to work with and not
against it. Collective bargaining
which the: so-called American plan
seeks to suppress, is the cornerstone
Of organized labor. Collective bar

for adjusting relations between the
managers. and the workers, securing

CANADA iSN0T
ENTHUSED over
SALES TAxLAW
Advocates Of Tax Say Less
About Il in America Now; II Is
Poor Revenue Garner.

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Sales tax
advocates in Canada are less enthusi-
astic over this plan, since it has beeen
given a practical test in that country,
says the special correspondent from
Ottawa to the Washington Herald and
New York Evening Post. NJ =.
1T is noticed that not nearly az
much has been said recently about
the advantages of the sales tax. This
was bound to happen the more the
subject was inquired into" says the
correspondent, who adds that if the
Canadian law was transplanted to the
United States it would not yield more
than per cent Of the revenue re-
quired.
"A study of the results of Canadian
taxation methods during the last year
will bring one to the conclusion that
not the sales, but the income tax. is
by far the best revenue producer"
he says
"The income tax has produced the
surprising results it has during the
present year. and that while other
taxes were falling down so badly, be-
cause it has touched the zeal source
Of surplus wealth. Those who pay
the income tax have a proved income;
moreover, in the case of very large
proportion of such persons, their in
come has not been adversely affected
by the decline in general business be-
| cause it has been derived very largely
from bonds bearing a relatively high
| rate of interest over a. long period.
"The sales tax collections have been
disappointing because, taken on sales
at time when prices have been very
much deflated, the natural effect has
been to reduce the value Of sales. or
the very thing on which the tax is
! collected. Moreover, the natural re-
1uctance to buy has been increased by
the increase in cost represented by
the tax. The net result is that the
! receipts from the sales tax are dis
| appointing because they are being
ta!-en from gradually declining vol
ume of business"

BY CHARLES NJ. KELLEY.

All employers are not oppressors of
labor and advocates of the "open
shop" There are far-sighted, earnest
men in industry who are travelling as
rapidly as conditions will permit the
road that leads to industrial democ-
racy. They recognize in the campaign
that is being waged by certain large
employers danger that strikes at
the foundations of society.
Notable deliverances on the rela-
tions of employer and employs come
from Oliver T.. Remmers, one Of the
largest, if not the largest, employer in
St. Louis, and Mervin w. Hansen, a
leading Ohio contractor and dealer.
Mr.. Remmers was addressing the
Chamber of Commerce of St. Louis in
opposition to a resolution committing
that organization to the "open shop
campaign and he Influenced the men,
bers to vote it down. Mr.. Hansen
spoke before the convention of the
Ohio State Association of Electrical
Contractors and Dealers, at Spring
field. -
Both consider the 'open shop
campaign as ill-advised and un-Ameri-
can, and insist that intelligent EN-
ployers should encourage labor organ
izations and deal with them fairly
and freely. .~t-. .,4. .:a.s, -:s,. <,S..z &

UNCLE SAM PROF|TEERS
IN POSTAL SAVINGS BANK

SULLIVAN, Ind, July 14.-The
governments postal system profiteered
last year to the extent of $1;70O,OOO,
says Postmaster General Hays, who
recommends that interest on postal
savings deposits be increased from 2
per cent to per cent.
He declared that hundreds Of thou
sands of depositors are practically be-
ing defrauded because their GER
tif1cates specifically state that per
cent interest is paid on deposits, and
no not state that nothing is paid on
deposits held less than one year. Be-
cause of this system, he said, the
average interest paid on all money
held was only u per cent.

C0MPERS SCORES
VAC SAILORS ON
INDUSTRIAL SEA
Declares Employers Easy Prey
for Professional Propagandists
and Welfare Workers.

Tramp sailors on the industrial
sea-" is the term applied by Samuel
Gompers, writing in the American
Federatio to such anti-union pro-.
moters as L. C. Harris and Ed Whalen
of the local Citizens Alliance.
"a great part Of the campaign to
destroy trade unions. he says, .has
been inspired by professional propa-
gandists- whose business iir life
is to go from one piece of exploita-
tion to another. organizing one move
ment- and another. wherever the op-
portunities for what is called easy
money seem brightest-have been
mainly responsible for perhaps the
major portion of the campaign
against labor.
"They have found it ridiculously
easy to convince employers that man.
ufacturing costs could be reduced if
only the unions could be destroyed.
Business men, sagacious enough in the
ordinary routine of their affairs, have
been a surprisingly easy prey to these
tramp sailors of the industrial sea.
They have been as free and thought
less in opening their check books for
this purpose as they notoriously are
in opening thei. rcheck books to all
manner Of canvassing agents for. his
tories, souvenir books and homes for
disabled cats.
1T is indeed regrettable that those
whose motives are no higher than i'm
mediate personal gain at any cost,
should have been SO able to influence
a portion of the industrial world in
favor of autocratic control.
1T is fortunate for the welfare of
the nation that the labor movement
does not capitulate before every
spasm of passing opposition. It is for
tunate that there are these great or
ganizations striving for the welfare OF
humanity, opposing themselves always
to the forces of self-aggrandizemen ent
and greed and to the forces of reac-
ton and autocracy."

COAL, $2.25 At MINES;
CONSUMERS PAY $8.75

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 14.-"We
note in the daily press that several
coal owners in the Birmingham dis
trict are offering coal at the modest
sum of about $2.25 per ton f. o. b.

cate.
I'VE also note that domestic coal
is held in the yards at Birmingham
for sale to the consumer at the also
modest price of sS.75 per ton.

tail man says he doesn't, and the coal
owner says he doesn't, and we know
that the miner doesn't. So, who
gets it?'

COURT SAYS COMMISSION
CANNOT PROBE COMPANY

PHILADELPHIA, July 14.-The
state supreme court has ruled that the
public service commission has no right
to inquire into the reasonableness of
annual rentals, approximating $1O,-
100000, which the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company pays to underlying
companies.
The commission insisted that it has
the right to know what the company
does with it's money but the court
held that what a public utility does
with the money it receives by way Of
reasonable return for the service it
furnishes" is no concern of the public
service commission or the public.
