Deaf H SUMMONS
JUSTICE ! ASHLEY
Man. Who:WogIl!|d Send Gompers,
Mitchell and Morrison to Jail
in 1909 Passes Away.

WASHINGTON, une,2.-Ashley NJ.
Could: associate: justice of the Dis
trict of Columbia supreme court, died
in this city last week.
In 1907: the deceased issued the
Bucks Stove company injunction
against President Gompers, associate
members of the "A. F. of l.. executive
council and 'all others" The courts
order enjoined even reference to tho
company's name in the American Fed
erationist or any other printed mat
ter. President Gompers announced his
refusal to obey the Injunction, as il
prohibited discussion of the merits of
the courts order, and therefore vio-
lated free speech and free press guar
antees.
On the charge of violating the in
junction Justice Daniel Thew Wright
OF the same court sentenced Presi-
dent Gompers to one year in Jail, Vic,
President Mitchell to nine months in
jail and Secretary Frank Morrison to
six months in jail. The sentence was
carried to the United States supreme
court, where it was finally dismissed
under the statute of limitation.
Justice Wright died in this city
several years ago..

BRITISH CO-OPS 7. |.
SHOW NO PROFIT
Advocates Insist That CORPORA
ton Profits Tax Should Not Be
Enforced Against Them. ,.

LONDON, England, June I'm
opposing the attempt TO enforce the
corporation profits tax on cooper
alive societies. Sir John Simon says:
'The scheme Of a cooperative So
ciety is in its essence this. that a
number of persons, who are called
the members, join together to make
purchases of goods and to distribute
these goods among themselves; the
actual purchase and distribution be-
ing of necessity carried out by some
managing body acting on behalf of
all the members. It is clear, there
tore, that an excess Of the so-called
price at which the goods are dis
tributed over the price at which they
were bought is not profit in an or
binary sense Of that word; indeed,
the marin object Of the society is to
prevent any profit from arising at
all.
None Of. this money can possibly
be called profit either of the So
ciety or of its individual members.
The position is just the same as it
would be if a man gave $1,000 to
his agent to buy motor car. and
the agent reported that he had Sc
cured a car for $500. and returned
to his employer the 5000 less his COM
mission and expenses, and any other
sum which his employer had instruct
ed him to pay. It would not occur
to anybody to say that what the en-
ployer received back was profit
on the transaction"

FEDERAL LABOR
GETSL0W WAGE
Nearly $4,000 Government En-
p|oyes Get Less Than Living
Wage, Says Union Official.


WASHINGTON, June 2.-Nearly
$4,000 government employees receive
less than a living wage; there are as
many as 10 or IL different rates Of
pay for the same kind of work: highly
trained workers Of many callings are
paid less than common laborers. s..
The above are few OF the charges
made against the present employment
policy of the government by Luther
c. Steward, president Of the National
Association Of Federal Employees at
a civil service hearing before joint
committee of the senate and house.
The trade unionist presented a con-
structive policy which would establish
uniformity, board of appeals, and
provision for promotion.
There is 40 per cent labor turn
over in the government" he said.
"This costs the government millions
of dollars There is little future for
employees appointed on merit, because
most of the obest positions are filled
by political appointees. Hundreds Of
positions are vacant because the SAL
aries are too low to tempt qualified
applicants"

RAILROAD LABOR
IS POORLY PAID
Despite Claims Of Managers
Men Must Work Overtime to
Make Enough Money to Live.

WASHINGTON. June 1.-The low
wage propaganda of railroad man.
ayers and their supporters who talk
Of prewar rates is at variance with
report made in April, 1913. by q
railroad wage commission, appointed
by Director General of Railroads Nc
Adoo.
This commission was composed of
the late Franklin X. Lane, then Sec
rotary of the interior: Charles c. Nc
Chord, member Of the interstate COM
merce commission; J. Harry Coving-
ton. Judge of the District of Column
bia court, and William r. Wilcox,
former postmaster of New York city.
In it's report this commission said:
1T has been a somewhat popular
impression that railroad employees
were among the most highly paid
workers. But figures gathered from
the railroads disposed OF this belief.
Fifty-one per cent of all employees
during December, 1917, received SIS
per month or less. And so per cent
received 500 per month or less. Even
among the locomotive engineers, COM
monty spoken of as highly paid, a.
preponderating number receives less
than $170 per month, aud this COM
pensation they have attained by the
most compact and complete organ
ization, handled with a full appre-
citation of all strategical values. Be-
tween the grades receiving from $50
to $3.50 per month, there is included
less than per cent Of all the en-
ployes excluding officials). and these
aggregate less than( 10000 men out
of a grand total Of 100000.
These, it, is to be noted, are not
prewar figures; they represent condi-
tons after year Of war, and two
years Of rising prices. And each dol
lar now represents in it's power to
purchase a place in which to live, food
to eat, and clothing to wear, but II

ADAMS0N LAW DID NOT HIT
RAILROADS so VERY HARD

WASHINGTON, June AT the
nearing of the senate committee that
Is Investigating tn, railroads, Sem
ator Myers asked this question:
Il want to know If you were able
to give us just at this time the per-
centage of operating cost paid for
labor in 1916, just before the Adam
son law took effect, and in 1877"
Alfred P. Thorn. attorney for the
railroads, replied:
I'm 1915. 1913 cents; 1917, 61.5
cents; 1918. 65.6 cents: 1919, 64.6
cents:. 1920, 64.1 cents"

Remains Unretracted.
The falsehood printed in the Bulle-
tin remains unretra cted. The Build
ers' Exchange has been given an OPP
portunity to furnish us with the proof
of the serious charge they made
against the honesty and integrity Of
one of our members, or to retract it.
The only replies we have received
have Deen stated here, and are evasive.
They give no specific information. ex-
cept that some reference made to an
unknown master painter, and no re-
greet is expressed for the injury done
the business agent OR the Painters
u1-ion. When we put the matter
S 4uarely up to the secretary Of the
Builders Exchange he concluded by
stating his organization or the master
painters were not interested, but they
seem to have been sufficiently inter
ested at the outset to make a specific
charg against the business agent Of
the Painters Union, and they. were
so anxious to get something on any
member of organized labor that they
requested the members of the Ex-
change to report if this thing was
general.
Such statements are but an exam
pie Of their campaign Of misrepre-
Sentation, villification, calumny and
abuse that is being conducted by the
Citizens Alliance and the Builders
Exchange, the organization over
which it seems to exert dominating
influence and power against union
labor.
Duluth Unions Clean.
Since the present campaign was
inaugurated against union labor there
has not been one successful charge
made against it's conduct in Duluth
but these anti-unionists in their mad
attempt to sway public opinion in
their favor. are resorting to every
means by innuendo. cunning and
craftiness, arts in which they are we'll
schooled, in the hope of dscrediting
the union labor movement in this
city.
We challenge the opponents of a
square deal for labor to come out
like men and meet us in the open
with som ching more specific than
they have yet given, and we promise
them an enlightening reply. We well
come an investigation of the conduct
of union labor in Duluth.
We are perfectly willing that the
public should read the minutes of
all our deliberations and we would
be pleased to give them. to the peo-
pie, if the members of the Citizens
Alliance and the Builders EXCHANGE
will at the same time submit the
minutes of their private business and
their secret deliberations.
Has Nothing to Fear.
Organized labor has nothing tc
fear from the searchlight of investi.
cation, but the anti-unionists who
are attacking labor do not dare tt

permit board of inquiry to examine
ginning of the war until now.
They shout stop Thief" in their
attack upon labor while they are still
plundering the public to, the same
old tune. Because the price of a few
articles which pass quickly from the
farmer to the consumer have been
decreased the greater bulk Of the
comm ODDITIES they control, which have
passed out of the hands Of the pro-
Queer. are still being sold art abnor-
NAL prices.
They boosted rents beyond reason.
Wages have never" been excessive. The
laborers have scarcely received more
for their labor than it has cost them
to live. They have no surplus from
which they can draw The reduc-
ton in wages the anti-unionists are
now attempting to enforce, should
they succeed, would result in reduc-
ing the standard of living, decrease
consumption, curtail business, and as
result injure not only labor. but
employers and merchants as we'll.
Fraught With Danger.
This campaign is fraught with dan
ger from every aspect. It kindles
class hatred. 1t creates doubt, sus-
picion and envy. It disorganizes So
ciety. 1t creates malice between men
where they should be friendship. 1t
interrupts production and throws all
industry off it's balance, and is most
injurious to the city.
Why? Have honest employers any
real grievance against the workers?
1t is all done by a. group of Dusi-
ness privateers and professional anti
unionists, the first to !. prevent the
growth and development of labor, and
employers and employees. so that
they may be permitted to: draw the
fabulous salaries paid to them by the
| anti-unionist organizations they serve.
In conclusion your executive: COM
mittee recommends that the Builders
Exchange be demanded to publicly
retract the untruthful statement they
printed against the business agent of
the Painters union: in the Builders
Bulletin of March 2s. -. "a
