UNABLE To PLAY
Benefit Game Here With Ly.
ceums for Thursday Night
is Called Off

After making an effort to get in
touch with the players on his team
in regard to a benefit game the Ly-
ceum nine of this city on Thursday
night, Manager Richard Carfoot of
the Aquehonga nine of Tottenville
announced shortly after 10 o'clock
this morning that 1t would be i'm
possible for his team to appear here
on that night because Of the fact
that he cannot communicate with
three members of his infield.
Although Manager Snyder of the
Lyceums has not made any an
nouncement of the booking of a sub
stitute team it is likely that some
strong combination in this vicinity
will be booked in the place of the
Aquehongas, so hat those who turn
out car witness a real hard battle.
Everything is in readiness for the
big diamond classic to be conduct
ed on the Raritan Copper Works
field Thursday night, between the
Lyceum A. C. team of this city and
the Aquehonga nine Of Tottenville
for the benefit of the Firemen's Re-
lief Fund. Professor w. Corio's
brass band of Jersey City will be
nish music in connection with the
game. The contest is slated to start
at 6 o'clock.
The Lyceum team in this benefit
game will endeavor to take the scalp
of the Aquehonga tossers, and thus
even their series with the team from
across the river, and at the same
time they will endeavor to raise the
biggest sum yet contributed by any
sporting outfit in this city to the
Firemen's Relief Fund. The Perth
Amboy baseball club donated $3.50
to the fund as the proceeds of Sun
days game between the Perth Am
boy team and the Jersey City police
nine.
Interest in North Amboy and
throughout the city and surround
ing towns has reached a high point,
inasmuch al the two contending
teams in this game are among the
leading semi-pro mines in this Sec
ton. The Red Stars victory over
h Aquehongas last Sunday has
created considerable interest in the
Lyceum-Tottenville game among
followers of the diamond game in
and around New Brunswick.

"a. +. of L. News Service

New York.-More than so firms
and individuals belonging to the tile

the federal court to the charge of
dividing up this business. Where one
of the defendants was assigned to
care for certain amount of business
he could charge his own price, and
his associates would submit higher
bids, known as accommodate bids, "
to make his bid appear low.
Members were furnished with in
formation about contracts to be let i'm
their exclusive territories and other
members were notified that they
were not to make any boni fide at
tempt to obtain such contracts. A

One of the attorneys for the prose-
cution is quoted as saying that 'many
of these men are guilty of practices
which no decent firm would be guilty
of whether those acts were forbid

EMPLOYERS FORCE
BIG GARMENT
WORKERS STRIKE
"a. +. of l.. News Service)

New York.-More than 10000 gar
ment workers are on strike in protest
of one of the most glaring instances
of contract breaking in the history OF
the trade union movement.
These workers are members of the
international Ladies' Garment Work
ers' union. Their contract does. not
expire until the middle of next year.
They also have a joint board which
stands instructed to investigate pro-
duction conditions. This board was
to report on Nov. |, but before that
date the employers declared for re,
turn of the piece work system and
the long work week.
By the record breaking vote OF
3S,672 to 1862 the workers declared
they would strike rather than return
to former conditions.
President Schlesinger of the gar
ment workers union charges the
bosses with attempting to destroy the
union. In support of this charge the
union executive makes public conf
Dental letters from the manufacture
ers' association, written several
weeks ago, i'm which manufacturers in
other cities were asked to confer with
the employers in this city and per

corning their relations with the
union.
The manufacturers first claimed
that the union "leaders" were at
tempting to force a strike, which the
membership does not want. The as
founding strike vote, however, has
answered this claim. Now the bose!
are attempting to gain public opinion

CUT RELIEF IN AUSTRIA
New Survey of Conditions Causes
Reduction by American
Organization.

Yienna.-A new survey of economic
conditions, has caused the American
child relief TO make drastic cut In
its charity in Austria. II Is proposed
this summer gradually to reduce the
number of children fed to 100000 and
these will be confined largely to Wen
ma and other cities where much want
will be faced during the coming
winter.
The general improvement in the rural
regions is Illustrated by the action of
the Americans in closing IS of their
kitchens in upper Austria alone in one
week. All children of parents in fair
financial circumstances are excluded
under the new program, as well as
children of farmers. In other words
American relief win be confined to
those In actual need.

CONFINEMENT OF
HOWAT CONSIDERED
UNJUSTIFTABLE
lRa MARTIN a. DILLMON.


The constitution Of the United
States declares that, Neither slavery
nor involuntary servitude, except as
a punishment for crime whereof the
party shall have been duly convicted,
shall exist within the United States,
or in any place subject to their jur-
isdiction."
In a like vein, Alexander Howat,
president of the Kansas miners, de
clares, by his firm stand in Opposi-
ton TO the so-called "can't-strike"
court of that state that slavery and
involuntary servitude shall not be
perpetrated upon the workers Of the
State of Kansas. Howat has the
manly courage and honor 10 hight In
defense Of that principle; that Is eX-
aetly why he is in jail.
Would not forcing men, against
their will, to work under conditions
and for wages arbitrarily fixed by
someone else constitute involuntary
servitude," in direct violation of the
constitution of the United States ?
The intelligent mind would answer,
yes. Then, who is the real American
citizen, governor who seeks to chain
men to their employment under con-
ditions fixed by political tools of the
employers, or Alexander Howat, who
is willing to go TO Jail rather than
submit to Che scheme?
Howat and his eo-worker, Vice
President Dorchy, are in Jail, but the
spirit of Howat lives in the breasts
of real American citizens. 1t will
never die. The history of the labor
movement records the fact that many
veterans of the workers long-ago
struggle for justice have suffered,
bled and died in defense of the same
principles for which Howat is in Jail
today. Men of the type of Howat
have carried labor's banner through
many storms down through the ages,
and they have made possible our
many victories and well-earned adj
vancements.
Alexander Howat is in Jail, not for
the workers of Kansas alone, but for
every working man and woman in
America. If industrial slavery sue
ceeds in Kansas, then it will be but
short time until the scheme will
spread like smallpox to the other
states. Howat is in Jail for us; we
should be out for him.

tect the God-given rights of the

wrestling match at the Illinois theatre
last Tuesday night, were there. The
boys from the News Gazette, chaper-
oned by Mr.. Bailey, are always there
right on the ring-side, and Billy
Howe is no exception.
The News-Gazette has installed a
new bench saw.
In speaking of the good fellowship
existing at the Sunday evening ban
quet, one member said he was in ia
vor of donating frequently to Just
such a treat for the printers at least
every three months or so during the
year. Well, that sounds like good
common sense. Let's try and bring

LUMBER BARONS
REDUCE WAGES
OF EMPLOYEES

Less than 30 men, or corporations,
have a virtual monopoly Of northwest
en timber and this, not wages, Is
responsible for high prices and the
paralysis of this industry, says Henry
w. Call. secretary-treasurer of the
International Union Of Timber Work
ers. in that unions official bulletin.
Reductions in wages have not sold
any more lumber" said Call. "They
have not started any more mills and
camps. They have not reduced
freight rates, and they have not in
duced the public TO buy.
"They are right back at the end Of
the vicious circle which they started
ten months ago, being ably assisted
by their company union known as
the Loyal Legion of Loggers and
Lumbermen.
"Many logging camps in the Puget
Sound section, and i'm British Column
bia are closed, the reason being given
that there is a surplus of fir in the
water. Prices for cedar logs are so
high that many mills are forced to
suspend operations. Others are OPP

of from 10 to % per cent; again the
workers are compelled to help pay for
the increase in the price of cedar.
ain Seattle, common labor for the
saw mills is down to $500 per day,
and in some cases lower. In some
cases employment offices do not state
the wages to be paid.
at is not and has not been the
wage rate paid at any stage of the
game that has been responsible for
the present stagnation in the timber
industry. This condition has been
charged to three reasons: High
wages, high freight rates, and the re-
fusal of the people to buy lumber.
"The truth of the matter Is that
not to exceed thirty-five men, or cor
porations, have virtual monopoly
on this raw material.
''rhey do not have to sell logs eX-
cept at their own price.
''The big cost in lumber pfoduc-
ton today is not labor; it is not
freight rates; it is the cost of raw ma
terial.
"The public can well believe that
the lumber operators did not run full
page advertisements in the newspa-
pers for fun. They did it because
they hoped to mold public opinion
in their direction; they wanted to
place the blame anywhere but where
it belonged--upon their own should

STRIKEBREAKER
ON TRIAL FOR
STARTING FIRE
"a. +. of l.. News Service)

j. C. Emerson is on trial in Rich
mond, Calf, for setting fire to a
warehouse owned by the Associated
Oil company. Employees of the con-
Germ were ON strike at the time and
Emerson was employed as a watch
man. When the fire was discovered
the accused said he saw man escape
in boat. The company offered a
reward for the firebug, but when En-
erson was arrested the authorities
were amazed when they discovered
that no one connected with the COM
pany would swear out a warrant
against Emerson. The grand jury
was convened to probe the matter
and an indictment was handed down
against the alleged "watchman."
Recently Emerson was arrested in
Stockton with a suit case filled with
dynamite.

To the meddling r. outside inilu-
ences the speaker laid the blame Tor
much Of the present trouble between
the printers and employers. These
influences, he said, realized that Il
the Typographical Union could be
disrupted the way would be made
easy for the disruption of the whole
union movement. With this in mind,
pressure has been brought TO bear
upon employing printers, with the re-
suits mentioned above.
These short-sighted employers, Mr.
HAYS said, would naturally prefer TO
deal with unorganized workers, be-
cause then they would be placed in a
position to exploit the worker by pay
ING whatever wages best suited the
employer and i'm imposing other terms
at will, thus pitting the workers
against themselves in competing Tor
their jobs.
That the unions are beneficial to
the non-union man as we'll as the
union man is shown By the fact that
in communities where the union move
ment exists, non-union Workmen re
ceive practically the same pay as do
the union members. this being made
so by reason that il the nOn-union
worker did not receive equal pay and
conditions, he would seek the protee-
ton of the union. This is illustrated
m the printing industry in the Twin
Cities, where non-union men are now
working under conditions secured
through the efforts of the TypOgraph-
zeal Union, taking advantage of the
results secured in the S-hour strike,
which they did not support at the
time in the least degree. These same
workers will eventually benefit by the
present fight for the 44-hour week.
II is the duty of every man who has
the least amount Of the blood of fair
ness in his veins, to get into the
union and do his part in securing bet
ter conditions, instead of fighting
those who are helping them and then
coming in for their share of the bene-
fits after the victory has been won.
The union needs the non-union man
in the ranks as badly as the nom
union man needs the unions
There is not a beneficial law on
the statute books of the state of Hi
nois, said the speaker, that has not
been placed there by the influence OF
organized labor, and the organized la
Dor movement over a hundred years
ago advocated woman suffrage, free
schools, free text books, and many
of the other benefits now enjoyed by
the people.

The Review is going to grow and
prosper, but the printers, as we'll as
other laboring crafts, must assist in
this undertaking. Eoost the Review

the local to which they belong is not
represented each week with news
items. If every Union would try to
furnish a half column of news each
week, at least one full page could
