the aim that these courts can and
will prevent strikes, and lockouts.
Surely the experience OF such courts
ly the experience with such a. court
in the state OF Kansas, should have
a lesson for us. In New Zealand
and in other, Australasian countries
they have gone through the expert
ence of more than ! twenty years,
and their utter failure has not only
been recognized there, j but they
have been abandoned; Every OBJ
server and student knows these to
be facts, and in the state of Kansas,
where such a court has been in ex-
istence for the past two years, there
are today more strikes and a larger
number of men on strike than at
any time in the history Of Kansas.
The analogy which the president
makes as between the international
affairs and Industrial disputes is
far-fetched and unwarranted by
facts. Is it not true that the presi-
dent and the senate have stood un-
alterably against the covenant of
the league of nations, and fer what
reason? Because he and those who
have joined him in his view regard
the covenant a sa legalistic ma
chine to enforce and" compel obedi
ence of any recalcitrant nation;

CHICAGO, Dec. 15>- Federal
District Judge Carpenter has refus-
ed the governments request that the
American Linseed company and al
lied concerns be held violators of the
Sherman antitrust act.
The defendents are members of an
"open" price association which ex-'
changes prices. The government in
sisted that this association is con-
spiracy to fix and enhance prices
and check competition.
= There was no proof that any men,
ber of the association was under OBJ
legation to uphold prices, said Judge
Carpenter, who declared that it is a.
false theory to say that because there
might be opportunity to. fix prices
it must be. found that prices had
been fixed.
The courts reasoning is of interest
to trade unionists, who often find
courts less inclined to demand speci-
fic information when they are issu-

BLOC IN SENATE
Fears Il May Amount to Some
thing; Appeals TO Business
Men to Organize.

NEW YORK, Dec 15.-In accept
ing membership on the committee Of
American business men, Otto Kahn,
banker, expressed alarm over the
growing power Of the agricultural
bloc in the senate. This bloc fore
cd the senate to reject he house 80
per cent surti,x on high incomes
and accept a so per cent tax, which
was finally placed in the new reve-
nue. bill.
Mr.. Kahn opposes this bloc-and
all other blOcs, which, he says, "are
perniciOus and not confornre Bile to
the genius and the very underlying
conceptions of our institutions
He would combat this agricu1-
tural bloc by another bloc, but his
bloc would be unselfish and not de-
magogic' as is the agricultural bloc.

izer-a business organizer-who will
unite the business interests land
make effective their legitimate in
fluence in the councils of the natio."
All this is to be done 'in a bond
and progressive spirit, seeking no
special advantage" and with an en-
tire absence of selfishness that is
feature of the agricultural bloc.
Mr.. kahn's position is identical
with Wall street, which is. waking
up to the fact that agricultural in
tcrests in the west and south are
uniting for what is declared the in
oyito h]a DO1itica1 contest with the in
duEtrial east.
While this lineup is not new, con-
ditions in congress have changed
through the break up of party dis
cipline, that was undreamed Of a
few years ago. No longer can the
party whip be cracked, as in the days
Of the "old guard and this makes
the new insurgency harder to

explain that this was not a peace
conference but gathering of prac

TO AGED TRICK
Cover Up Cheap Wages by Re-
porting Monthly Pay to Min
erS Working by Contract.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.--"Trick
-wasea sta tistiess"'. III tbs
James Lord, president of the A. F.
Of L. mining department on the
claim Of Logan county (W. Va.)
coal owners that the gross earn
ings Of mine workers is $313.87 per
month.
w. r. Thurmond. president Of the:
Logan coal operators association,
states that the earnings of IS men.
at IS different operations has been
computed showing that the aver
age gross earning of the mine, work
ers was $313.S7 per month";
This trick of computing miners
wages is moss covered" said presi-
dent Lord. I'm selecting his five
miners from Is mines, Mr.. Thur
mond has hardly overlooked the con.
tract miner who employs three, four
or more men who are paid by him
out of the lump sum he receives from
senate investigation West Virginia
coal owners stressed high wages paid
by them and they attempted to con-
ceal the contract system, but were
forced to acknowledge that contract
mining does exist in their proper
ties.
Another common system is for
the father and sons to work to-
gether, the father receiving the pay
envelope. On the books of the COM
pany the father is credited with large
earnings, although no mention is
made Of the money he pays his sons,
who often can do a mans work.
'It will be noticed that Mr.. Thur
mond does not take the total pay
roll of Is operations and divide it
by the number of miners employed.
This would approximate average
earnings
