PLENTY OF SUGAR

Washington-Despite the popular
impression of a sugar scarcity in
1918 the per capita consumption that
year was 1877 pounds, followed in
1918 by 84.2 pounds, according to the
department of agriculture.
In 1913 and 1914, the two pre-war
years, the per capita consumption
rose to sc and 90.5 pounds, respec-
lively. The department estimates
that last years sugar crop in this
country was 2,6O5, 5,174,OOO pounds, OF
Is per cent above the record sugar
production of 1916 and SO per cent
above 1919. Sugar produced in the
United States is approximately one
fourth Of the quantity consumed. The
beet sugar production is 1920 is esti-
mated at 2,219,200,0O0 pounds and
cane sugar 9S5,974,OO0 pounds.

ChurChmen'S Views on the "Open Shop
Federal Council of Churches
SOcia | Service Commission

We feel impelled to call attention
to the fact that widespread impress
sion exists that the present "open
shop" campaign is inspired in many
quarters by antagonism to organized
labor. Any such attempt must be
viewed with apprehension by fair
minded people. 1t seems incumbent
upon Christian employers to scruti-
nize carefully any movement, however
plausible, which is likely to result in
denying to workers such affliation
as will, in their judgment, best safe
guard their interests and promote
their welfare, and not to precipitate
disastrous industrial conflicts at a
time when the country needs good
will and cooperation.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1921-02-25
National Catholic Welfare Council
Social Action Department

The "open shop" drive masks un-
der such names as the American
plan" and hides behind the pretense
of American freedom. Yet it's real
purpose is to destroy all effective la
Dor unions and thus subject working
people to complete domination of en-
ployers. Should it succeed in the
measure that its proponents hope, it
will thrust far into the ranks of un-
derpaid, the body of the American
people. There is great danger that
the whole nation will be harmed by
this campaign of few groups of
strong employers. Radical move
ments end disturbances in Europe
ought to hold a lesson for employers
of America. And the voice of the
American people ought to be raised
in an endeavor to drive this lesson
home.

Jury Rule Important

Williamson, w. Va.-Judge Bailey's
decision that no member of a union
affiliated with the A. F. of L. can
serve on the jury hearing murde.'
charges against score of miners is
considered important by counsel for
the defense. The attorneys say it
may establish a precedent by which
trade unionists will be disqualified for
service on jury trying the case of
a defendant having membership in an
A. F. of l.. union.
The jury consists of five farmers,
two school teachers, one laborer, one
sawmill worker, one electrician, one
railroad brakeman and one telephone
worker.
The trial will revolve around the
murder indictment of Sid Hatfield,
who is charged with killing Albert
Felts, one of the Baldwin-Felts de-
tectives, at Mattewan on May 10 last.
The detectives were evicting striking
miners from company houses at the
time. The accused plead self-defense.
The defense scored heavily against
the states star witness-Elsie Cham
bers, telephone operator-who first
testified that she listened in" on a
telephone conversation in which Sid
Hatfield, leading defendant, stated
that "we will get" the detectives. On
cross-examination by the defense the
girl acknowledged that she testified
untruthfully against the defendants,
including her father, her brother and
her cousin. She admitted that she
chad no use for Hatfield" The dis
crediting of the girls testimony is of
especial value to the defense, as it
has been repeatedly stated tha! the
telephone incident would be the state s
strongest link.

Rail Managers Want
AutOCratiC Control

Chicago-Conspiracy on the part OF
railroad executives and financ ,ers to
destroy the organizations of railroad
workers and re-establish autocratic
control of the transportation industry
was charged by President Jewell of
the A. F. of L. railway employees de-
partment before the railway labor
board, created under the Cummins-
Esch law.
The trade unionist answered the
claim of w. w. Atterbury, vice presi-
dent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
who failed to induce the board to set
aside the labor provisions Of the
Cummins -Esch law so that wages and
working conditions could be lowered
without hearing by the board.
President Jewell said that After
bury is the spokesman for a 0oWer-
full financial combination seeking to
re-establish "this autocratic c.ntrol
from which the war has freed us. ard
which was especially exempllfied by
conditions on the Pennsylvania rail-
road.
"Mr. Atterbury undoubtedly knows
that the present plight of the roads
is not due to ineffciency of the EN-
ployes. He konws that it is not due
to mistreatment, accorded to roads
under federal control. One significant
thing he said in the course of his
ultimatum, You cannot make retro
active tomorrow the savings that
should have been made today. This
should be a bitter pill to many a
small investor in railway securities
who has lost the result of savings
through the squandering Of railroad
wealth for which the financiCrs are
responsible. And now Mr.. Atterbury
discloses the determination Of the
conspiracy to make raid upon the
pockets of the railroad employees"

Out of All Reason
RAILROAD GUARANTY is VIC
IOUS PROPOSAL
Business Men and Farmers Equally
Entitled to Government Aid
Corporations No Better
Than The People

Washington-There is no more
reason why the government should
guarantee profits to railroads than
the profits of farmer, merchant or
other business man, said Congressman
Huddleston, who declared that "the
railroads are like a beast of prey,
which, having gorged itself upon it's
victims, returns with a new appetite
to gnaw the bones.
The guarantee is not conditioned
on efficient or economical manage
ment, nor even upon honest manage
ment," said the lawmaker. "The rail-
road managers were left free to enter
apon an orgy of extravaganza, waste
and dishonesty. The treasury foots
the bill.
"Few people of the country knew
that the guaranty was given. There
are even members of congress ig-
norant of the fact. The guaranty
ought not to have been given. 1t

interests. 1t cannot be excused nor
justified. The railroads profted from
federal control. They received profits
which they could not have earned
in private control. The net profits
of some of the railroads under fed
eral control were enormous; for in
stance, the Union Pacific received
1913 per cent upon their investment,
and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe 10 per cent. Numerous others re-
ceived from 6 to 10 per cent. The
guaranty gave them the same profits
and on top of that the opportunity
for waste, extravaganza and graf
For instance, it gave to the Union
Pacific a net earning of 1913 per cent
no matter how wasteful and dishonest
was its management. The guaral ty
ought not to have been given. The
government got nothing from the
guaranty; not a cent of benefit went
into the treasury; it was merely a
donation to the railroads"

Creates Dependents
THE TRUST PENSION PLAN is
POOR EXCUSE
Not To Be Compared With That Sue
cessfully Conducted BY Printers
International Union For
Many Years Past

Washington-The annual report of
the United States steel corporation
and Carnegie pension fund, makes
this paternalism look ridiculous when
compared with the trade union pension
system.
The trusts system is financed by
a trust of $12,0O0,OO0 donated by the
United States steel corporation and
Andrew Carnegie. Employees do not
contribute. At the present time
there are 1860 pensioners enrolled
out of the hundreds of thousands of
employees in steel mills, by sheet and
tin plate companies, tube works,
bridge companies, coke ovens, mines,
quarries, furnaces cement works,
transportation and other units of the
trust.
For 10 years the average age Of
the pensioners has been 65.78 years,
the average service, 30.41 years and
the average payment, $22.10
monthly.
Compared with this system is the
pension plan of the International
Typographical union, one of the older
trade unions. Any member having
a continuous good standing member

ment is entitled to the pension, which
is So week, as compared with the
trusts dole of $22.10 a month. The
printers sustain their pension fund
by paying one-half of one per cent of
their earnings.
Many unions affiliated to this in
ternatioral, supplement the pension
with a local pension that ranges from
$4 to SO week. In no case is there
an element of charity connected with
the union plan, as each member con-
tributes to the fund, which is returned
to the members not through the good
will of en employer who can withhold
it, but because it belongs to them.

Prosecutor WeakenS

San Francisco-James F. Brennan,
who prosecuted Billings on the charge
of being implicated in the bomb out
rage of 1916, makes the public state
ment that "I've always said there
were certain improbabilities about the
testimony of the witnesses in the
bomb cases, and I said l would ratheI
have the jury pass upon the evidence
than myself"
Brennan was assistant district at
torney at the time. He now says
that "the affidavit of John Mcdonald
Confessed perjurer) puts the bomb
cases in an entirely different light.
"If the witnesses in these cases
have proven themselves unreliable
enough that they are now willing to
make affdavits that their testimony
was false, it is unsafe to try to up
hold any conviction based on that
sort of evidence. That is a natural
conclusion.
81 was of the opinion that the evi-
dence in the Billings case did not
justify the death penalty. 1t didn't
warrant taking a mans life. And |
wouldn't attempt to justify hanging
verdict.
Policeman Draper Hand, who re-
Gently charged the bomb cases to be
a frameup, had full supervision of the
witnesses. He made written reports
of their testimony These were filed
with the police department. They
ought to be available now that an
investigation is under way. If any
witnesses were framed in the bomb
trials they came to the district at
torney's office. l hope that any in
quiry that is begun at this time will
embrace all the phases of the case,
so that if Mooney and Billings are
shown TO have been sent to jail by
perjury they will be released"
