Combine Revealed In Kansas
CITY Same as That Said to
Exist in Duluth.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-, July 14.-As a
result of demands by the trade union
member, the building trades wage ar
bitration board that adjusted rates for
building craftsmen, unearthed a cop
per riveted building trust in this city.
It was shown that lumber prices
were set in an Office building, that
cement brokers charged rs cents a
barrel for cement they never handled
or even saw and that the largest sand
dealer set prices that others followed.
The methods used by these prof1iteers
are so high-handed that a copy of the
testimony was forwarded to the state
attorney general.
The unionists showed that building
craftsmen average but from 160 to 200
days of work in the year and that
their average yearly income, based on
the 1919 rates-which range from
58% cents to 81 an hours $1,000.
The workers showed that 5000 is
necessary to support a. family Of five
in comfort for one year. Despite the
strong case presented by the workers,
the board ordered wage cuts that aver
age per cent.

Wisconsin Board Establishes
Minimum Rate at Is Cents an
Hour for Skilled Workers.

MADISON, Wis, July 14.-After
considering the question for many
months the state industrial commits
sion has readjusted wage rates for
women and minors. Experienced en-
ployes over II years of age will be
paid IS cents an hour after August 1
in cities of 5000 and over, and in
communities which are part of the
Industrial area Of such cities.
In other parts of the state the pres
ent rate of p cents for experienced
employees is left unchanged. The be-
ginning rate during the first three
months of the learning period is re-
duced from IS cents an hour to 16
cents. No change is made in the pres
ent rate Of 20 cents an hour for the
second three months of employment.
For minor employees between IA and
16 years of age the new rate is 16
cents an hour during the first year of
employment and 20 cents the second
year, instead of fiat IS cents for all
children up to 16. Minors between
16 and II may be paid 16 cents an
hur during the first six months in any
industry and must be paid 20 cents
thereafter.

cess Of a resolution by Congressman
Beck, which calls upon the secretary

Of war profiteers.
1T does not require great amount
of sagacity to predict the fate of this
resolution" writes the labor editor.
1T will, very likely, never come up
for discussion. Should it ever reach
that stage. 1t will, of course, be over
whelmingly defeated on the ground of
general public interest And should
the impossible happen, and it is
adopted, we can safely wager that no

particular pains to publish such list,
as it might include a goodly sprinkling
Of their advertisers, past, present, or

LOWER WAGE IS

Employees Reductions viii Have
Little Effect on Railroad Rates,
Managers Want All.

PHILADELPHIA, July 14.-Lower
wages will have little effect on rail-
road rates. What the managers want
is to abrogate the national agree
ment
The above summarizes an address
to business men in this city by E. T.
Whittier, chairman Of the conference
committee of railroad managers. The
speaker made the ludicrous claim that
the national agreen. ent would eventu-
ally lead to "the one big union"
He said labor unions are all right,
IF they are run right" but that they
must not interfere with the managers
and employees discussing working con-
ditions-that is. the employees have
the right to negotiate working condi-
tons, but under plans that will chop
them into small groups.
Mr.. Whittier told the business men
that the railroads fight is their fight
for if the managers win it will aid
them.

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Organ-

passage of the Madden bill which
would create a court of appeals for
employees who believe they have been
wrongfully denoted or dismissed from
the service.
Congressman Madden cited testi-
mony of First Assistant Postmaster
General Rooms, who admitted before
congressional committee, a few
years ago, that an employe under
charges in that department is not per-
mitted to confront the complainant or
to know who the complainant is, nor
is he permitted to inspect papers and
evidence upon which the charges are
based.
Under the present system employees
are discharged wholly on the basis of
charges made by their superiors and
without fair trial.

der which lapsed or Cancelled war risk

The feature of most importance is
the provision that term insurance that

regardless Of how long the applicant
has been discharged, be reinstated or

The new regulations supersede a
