FORD BOOSTS PAY
or RAILWAY men
ON own SYSTEM
Nails Feeble Argument Of
Fakers;; "tosing Proposition
Earns 100000 a Month.

This Henry Ford person is a pes
tiferous nuisance to those engaged in
milking the railroads and treasury of
the United States, and his latest ex-
plot is the worst of all, to hear them
tell it.
Henry bought the Detroit, Toledo
and Ironton about a year ago and
when he took it over the road was
losing" 100000 a month. which
Henry has changed to profit. even
though receipts fell off 100000 per
month.
The road has nearly four hundred
miles of track. employs several hun
dred workers and after July the
lowest paid employe will receive not
less than Sc per day Of eight hours.
That is the thing that makes mana
gers Of other roads see red and cuss
Henry all over the lot.
How He Does 1t.
How does he do it? Just by refrain
troll Of other roads. Ford owns the
D. T. & I. He is not a hired man put
in charge of the road by finapciers
who own concerns that sell rails, steel,
engines, cars and other supplies to the
roads, neither does he fake expenses
nor resort to bookkeeping" to hide
profits. He's just a. plain, ordinary
citizen who conducts business on the
basis of decency and good judgment.
He was not raised in-or developed
out of-conditions that made lying,
deceitfulness, willingness to accept a.
bride and general disregard for law
motion, out Of which conditions have
come the ordinary railroad president
and manager Of railroads. Never has
he been compelled to admit bribery,
false testimony and skullduggery be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion acting as Investigators into dis
ordinations and illegal and unlawful
practices of railroad arrangements,
during which Investigations testimony
covering thousands of pages, and fill
ing over eighty volumes was taken
any volume Of which bears: mute but
startling evidence of the conditions re-
ferred to.
All unnecessary Sunday work on the
D. T. & l.. is to be cut out after July
l. and the employees in train and other
service are to have Sunday off wher-
ever possible, thus giving railroad
workers a. right enjoyed by the ma
jority and one long desired by those
engaged in that employment. That,
also, is another advance which is con-
sidered by railroad arrangements to
be adeliberate insult to them.

LAW and ORDER" LEADER
URGES GERMAN TACTICS

MELBOURNE, Victoria, Australia,
June 23.-"Law and order" was the
slogan at the recent conference Of
organized Australia manufacturers.
r. r. Grundy, representing this
state, moved that in the event of a
strike 'all members Of the bodies in
volved be DISTINGUISHED" This senti-
ment was approved on the ground
that if wage earners refuse to obey
the laws they should not assist in
framing laws. Later, H. V. Mckay
(Victoria) urged manufacturers to ig
more arbitration courts created by the
STATE. This delegate declared that
Justice Higgins Of the federal arbi-
tration court fought to be extin-
guished."
S. +. Newlands (New South Wales)
moved that the manufacturers sub
sidize anti-labor propaganda, which
should consist of suitable moving pic
lures, exhibitions, pamphlets and car
toons. This was agreed to. A Tas-
mania delegate urged the formation
Of an all-Australian employers fed
Grafton.
The proposed federation should
act and not speak," he said. 1.-THE

Senate Investigation Disc|oses
Newberry Campaign Was
Directed by Wall Street.

The senate committee investigation
into the corrupt use Of money in the
last senatorial election In Michigan
developed the fact that Wall street
was more concerned about that cleo
ton than the people Of Michigan APP
peared to be. New York bankers came
across handsomely and the Newberry
campaign seems to have been con-
Quoted from that city. The bankers
considered Newberry their man; he
represented Wall street and they,
wanting him, went out and bought
his seat in the. senate. Money talks
with them and they think they can
buy any office for any OF their pets.
That the money was used to corrupt

WASTE Laid At
EMPLOYERS DOOR
Hoover Committee Lays Bare
Facts; "HoHa Than Thou
Propagandists Hunt Cover.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 23.-Respon-
sibility for more than so per cent Of
the waste in industry can be placed at
the door of employers and less than rs
per pent is due to labor. according to
a report by the American engineering
councils committee on elimination Of
waste in industry.
The committee consists of Is engi-
neers and scientists who were appoint
ed by Herbert Hoover when he was
head Of the council. The report COM
prises $4,000 words and has been
handled most gingerly by those
"holier- than-thou'' influences that in
sist capitalists are 100 per cent pro-
duction perfect while labor is respon-
sible for mankind's social and eco
nomic ills.
AS examples of waste in various in
dustries the report declares the build
ing industry is only about 60 per cent
efficient, the shoe industry about 65
per cent. the metal trades 70 to IS
per cent and the clothing industry so
per cent.
In the building trades alone waste
Of time and energy and money
through the Implications, estimate
and bids, total millions of dollars an
nually.
Reference is made to the untold
losses through preventable diseases
and the cost to the nation because the
workers are changing from job to job
because Of unsatisfactory conditions.
The high labor turnover, the report
said, is a rough index of one of the
cOmmOneSt wastes.
The committee shattered another
hobby Of public opinion molders'' by
| the statement that the annual losses
through strikes is much less than
| popularity supposed.

declared by critics who are competent
to Judge to be fully as good play as
East is West" and far more fascinat-
ing. THE Love of Su Shong'' can
truthful1y be called the play differ
ent,'' and by their sterling perform
ances the Orpheum Players are gain
ing new laurels. 1.-THE Love Of Su

at the Orpheum Saturday.
The first comedy of the season,
"She Walked in Her Sleep" will be
the presentation of the Orpheum
Players next week starting with the

Walked in Her Sleep is rollicking
comedy that at no time depends upon
RESCUE situations or questionable lines
to provoke laughter. A special fea-
ture of "She Walked in Her Sleep"
will be the appearance in the cast of
Evelyn La Telle in the role of Mamie
the slavey. Miss ia Telle created
this part in the No. 1 road company
which was directed by George Broad

Hart and J. Hooker Wright. The
matinees during the stock season are

TEACHERS ARE Warned
TO STUDY TAX REFORM

WILMETTE, ILL.,, June 49,
'Teachers are coming to realize that
the tax question is one of the most
serious Of present day problems" says
the bulletin of the American FEEDER
alton of Teachers.
1T is closely related to school prob
lens. Teachers can serve the public
in no better way than by familiariz-
ing themselves with the present tax
system and its failure to provide ade-
quately for the maintenance of a
school system i'm keeping with our
national life. The real sources OF
wealth are practically untouched. Re-
forms in taxation must take place. In
what direction these reforms are to
be made, needs careful consideration
In this let the teachers take their
part"
