INDUSTRIAL CONDI-
TIONS AT WHINING
TON. DEL.
BY RACSO YARG.

Here are few industrial notes
CLEANED from the field here at Will
mington.
The employees of the Wilmington
and Phila. Traction Company have
voluntarily" voted themselves S
cent reduction of wages with the
understanding that when business
picks up the wage will be restored.
Oh yes, they'll get it'all right-when
elephants roost in trees.
The Todds Cut Shops of the Penn.
Ry. have opened again with 600 men
back. The Employees have held a
meeting of protest against the intro,
duction of the piece work system. 1t
was charged that the r. r. officials
used coercion by refusing to give
the men their jobs unless they signed
UP for piecework. 1t was also charged
that the Company was using armed
spies in the shops. The Company ex>
planned ?)that the spies were regular
road detectives concentrated at the
shops. Of course it was perfectly ac-
cidental that so many ARMED ROAD
THUGS were at the shops on the
opening day. Yes, it was just as ac-
cidental as the presence of Baldwin
Felts thugs at the West Va. coal
mines.
Between 1900 and 1900 employees
of the Chester plant of the Merchants
Shipbuilding Corp. struck recently
against what the Company claimed
was 10 to 20 per cent wage cut. AS
matter of fact the cut was one of
20 to rs per cent. One striker stated
to me that on some work where $1,000
per hundred rivets was formerly paid,
the pay was cut to $500 per hundred.
This looks like rs per cent cut to
the workers in spite OF the Company's
figures.
Workers Of America, how much
longer are you going to stand for
such conditions which the bosses,
backed by their government seek to
impose upon you? Remember, UNI
TED we stand, DIVIDED we fall.
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1921-08-27

"Union labor must take another
cut" President Vinnedge of the West
Coast Lumberman's Association says.
At the same time he tells lumber
owners they can do much to increase
prices. He relies upon the company
union," known as the Loyal Legion
of Loggers to help cut the wages.

THE PEACE ON
THE RHINE.
BY Anise Gin Germany
Federated Press Staff Writer)

In the city Of Cologne
Under the great cathedral
Stood a reviewing stand
Filled with high officers
Proudly arrayed
With many decorations.
Before them, down the street
Came,
With flourish of bugles,
Imperial TROOPS advancing
With waving banners,
Passing and saluting
Before their WAR LORDS!
For this was the birthday
Of the King of England
And these
Are the troops of the King
Keeping guard on the Rhine
And celebrating their ruler
While the silent
CONQUERED people,
The Germans,
Who built the town
And cathedral
Gaze, solemn and dumb,
At the proud parade
Of the VICTORS!
But even now
While the sound
Of the English bugles
Echoes across the square,
The high cathedral clock
Strikes ten,
And down the by-streets
Come ANOTHER procession
Out of their hungry novels
The CHILDREN
Of the city,
With faces thin and bloodless
From the five lean years
OF FAMINE!
With bowl and spoon in hand
They pass
To the great stone buildings
Where the Quaker-feeding waits
For the hungriest children.
Into their bowls
Is ladled the daily ration,
A soup Of rice and milk;
And into their hands
Is pressed
The white flour "brodchen."
Thus, over this whole land
A MILLION children
Pass, at the hour Of ten,
In SLOW procession
Into the many high halls
Where "Quaker-foodD is given,
Sent from over the sea
And over the channel
BY FRIENDS
In "enemv landso
Who WILL NOT WAR
On children!
These
Are the two professions!
The one is proclaimed
By the bugles!
The other is only announced
BY the clang of spoons
On the soup bowls!
But WHICH Of the two
Is building the PEACE
Of the Rhineland?

"He sprang to the colors." Yep, and
now he's springing around from one
closed shop to another looking for
non-existent job. The "colors" seem
to have faded.
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1921-08-27
New York, Aug. 12, 1921.

The passage in the dispatch print
ed in The Times quoted to Captain
Fitzpatrick Of the American Red Cross,
to which Mrs. Bryant refers, read as
follows:
practically the entire staff of the
Soviet Foreign Office arrived at the
prison one day because of informa-
ton which had leaked out. Mrs. Louise
Bryant was brought to my cell. She
questioned me regarding Captain
Marion Cooper, saying he had done
wrong in aiding the Poles and would
be punished. Later read her signed
article in the Isvestia praising the
prison treatment accorded Americans.
She told of the good food we were
receiving, when, as matter Of fact
we were starving. She told how all
we had to do was sleep, whereas we
were too weak to stand"

T0BE HONEST AGAIN
''Used to Be-" Says Head Of
Philadelphia chamber-At.
tacks Profiteerjnu Prices

fhiLADEkLfhlA, NAY va re-
turn to the basic principles Of hon
esty upon which American industry
and commerce were founded was the
plea OF Alba B. Johnson, president OF
the Philadelphia Chamber of Com
meree. in his address At the annual
Hey Day exercises Of the University
Of Pennsylvania yesterday.
Certain manufacturers and mer-
chants are striving through certain
devices to gain the advantage by
charging exorbitant prices" the com
merce expert declared. "Thsy Do not
furnish goods that come up to the
former American standard.
As q nation We have lost sight of
the fundamental facts OF certain
forms OF honesty because they have
been based on an exchange Of service.
The main object today seems to be to
get something withouth paying for
It, but in the end we pay the price.
A student can get q rating without
being entitled to II, and the business
man can extort by excessive prices
without paying the penalty immedi-
ately, but in the end both pay the
cost "
"The railroads. excused themselves
for excessive rates by saying thsy had
to pay high wages because many Of
their men were called into the service.
Now they are seekinE reasonable
rates and are making q conscientious
effort to return to former standards.
''The Idea that you can get some
thing for nothing seems to permeate
both the social and laboring classes.
This country as q nation has been
built on an ideal OF fair dealing.
Every young man secures his best
ideals by giving more than 10 expect
ed Of him. Those who do not pay IN
loss of prosperity and character"
