MAKING THE EMPLOY.
ES STOCKHOLDERS

The Union Pacific railroad is set

enabling all employees to become
stockholders.
Its system of dealing directly with
its thousands OF employees on a par

POVERTY PLEA
Of Meat Packers Exposed

Chicago-The poverty plea of meat
packers, when they are called upon to
pay a living wage, is exposed by
Swift G. Company in their campaign
to sell 10-year notes that will draw
z per cent interest. The company
states that during the last II years its
clear profits amount to $149, ,537, $40,
and of this amount $72, ,099, ,380-or
over 48 per cent--has been put back
in the business. Total sales increas-
ed from $25O,0O0,0O0 in 1909 to over
81, 100000 in 1920.
The Butcher Workman calls atten-
tion to these claims, and also to the
company's claims made before Judge
Alschuler who recently refused, as
arbitrator, to lower wages. At that
time the company claimed lower wage
rates were necessary to prevent the
conduct of the packing business at a
loss.
"These advertisements" says the
Butcher Workman, contain admis-
sions the packers attorneys did not
dare to make at the wage hearings" :"

RUBBED IT IN

Last week one of our largest man
ufacturing plants laid off a great
number of it's employees for an indef-
mite period. At the same time, the
company informed the laid off workers
that their wage rate would be cut.
This part of it was beyond the mems
comprehension AS one man said,
when the boss told me my wage
rate be reduced after informing me
that l was laid off, for how long he
did not know, asked him what there
was left to reduce and if he was tell
ing me this to rub it in? He said he
didn't know, but that was orders"
What is back of this, laying the
men off and at the same time telling
them that their wage rate is to be cut :?
Was it just to put out "feeler" to
see how the men were going to take it
after depriving them of the situation
to strike? Is it the intention to send
for the men, few at time to see
if they will accept the cut without
protest, or was it actually on the
square that there is no work to be
done and the company thought that
this is a good time. to take advantage
of, to make cut in wages and let
the workers know just what they are
to expect if ever they are called back
to their jobs?
There seems to be pretty we'll
founded suspicion that the company
thinks that now is the time"

demonstration against Mexico by
sending war ships into friendly har-
Dor, was Immediately swamped with
kilograms from all parts of the United
States protesting against any such
demonstration. Of course, the
promptness with which the Mexican
government put down the petroleum
rebellion in the Panico district made
it unnecessary for the war ships to
remain for a longer period than "a
to 36 hours, and the order was given
to get out and get out quick, which
left the actors in this opera bouffe
in very bad grace with the state de-
partment at Washington and the
state department at Mexico, and there
was nothing to do but lean heavily
upon the boycott.
''The first skirmish resulted in a
victory for the Mexican government
and defeat for the oilers However,
it was announced the boycott would
be continued Notwithstanding the
Washington government had quietly
decamped from the field of action.
"By the middle of August it be-
came very apparent that the Mexican
government was going to be able to
hold out for much longer period

were without the OIL

DECENTRALIZATION
Nominated Officials of ssPrO-
fiteers' BughOuse Party
By G0mpers

Atlanta, Ga.-President Gompers
favors the creation of the "Profiteers'
Bughouse party" and has nominated
Ex-Governor Brown of this state and
Congressman Blanton, of Texas, as
candidates for president and vice
president.
The A. F. of l.. executive expressed
these views in speech in this city
while referring to statement by
Brown that the trade unionist, to-
gether with President Mahon, of the
Street Car Mems Union, are accessor-
les to murder in deaths growing out
of strikes.
"Unless he does it." said the trade
unionist, "he writes himself as mis-
chievious falsifier and slanderer and
is unworthy of the respect of the peo-
pie of any community. There is but
one other man in the United States
in the class of Governor Brown-Rep-
resentative Blanton, of Texas.

these men live in the United States

Which Might Mean Ex-
pOsure of Methods

Baltimore-Representatives of
majority of the policy holders in the
Employers Mutual Insurance and Ser
Service Company, the strike insurance
concern which the state insurance de-
partment charges to be insolvent and
unable to meet it's obligations, and
which receiver has been asked, have
petitioned the court to postpone the
hearing on the receivership applica-
tion for 80 days. They want time to
work out plan of reorganization,
declaring that they do not desire re-
ceivership, being willing to stand
their losses in order to keep the COM
pany going. The committee of the
majority policy holders is composed
of three employing printers, two of
whom locked out their workmen May

may mean that the methods of the
concern in attempting to break
strikes will be investigated, hence the
purpose of these employers in oppos-
ing the proceedings. The state insur-
ance department has examined the
financial affairs of the company and
has reported to the court that the con-
cern is insolvent, having liabilities
exceeding assets by more than mil
lion dollars. The employers opposing
the receivership evidently hope to un-
cover an angel to square accounts in
the event the court grants the 30-day
postponement.

ANTI-UNIONISM
Declared For BY big Five"
Packers In Fight Against
Their Workers

Chicago-The Armour, Swift, Will
son, Cudahy and Morris packing con-
Germs have declared for anti-union-
ism, and announce they will not re-
ceive representatives of their en-
ployes who are not employed by them.
The packers have smashed arbitra-
tion machinery set up by the govern
ment during the war, and have organ
lied company union" to aid in
their fight against the Amalgamated
Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen
During the war the packers were
forced, under threat of strike, to
agree to arbitration methods. An
agreement was entered into and Fed
eral Judge Alschuler was appointed
arbitrator. This agreement ended
shortly after the armistice, and the
packers hastened to Washington to
have the agreement extended as the
so-called Tabor market" was still on
the side of the workers. The en-
ployes accepted an agreement that
would expire when the war ended"
Last year, when the Labor market"
turned in favor of the packers, the
meat barons conveniently overlooked
their agreement and demanded wage
reductions.
The matter was handled by Secre-
tary of Labor Davis, who recommend
ed II per cent reduction and an
end of the agreement this September.
Since then the packers have devoted
every effort to organize their COM
pany union" to function when the
agreement expired.
The packers record in this case IL
lustrates the hypocrisy of this brand
of big business when it urges "gov-
ernment machinery to settle industrial
disputes"

Standard oil group, which made such
noise about danger to property that
the United States government ordered
two warships to Tampico. The shat
was passed" in Houston, Texas, to
finance the uprising against the Mex

The above charge is made by w.

of the Kansas oil and gas mems asso-
citation, at Sedan, Kan.

Mexico taxed oil imported from that
country the Standard oil group start
ed a movement to boycott Mexico and
in addition pull off small revolution
to throw the fear of God into the
Mexican government"
"That hat was passed by Houston
oil companies to finance the plan.
"A loud noise was made at Wash
ington. The announcement was made
that all tools be shut down in the
Mexican district, and word went out
that conditions were dangerous there.
A pseudo-revolution was publicly pro-
claimed with general in the field in
command. The necessity for war
ships was pointed out to the state
department at Washington. Presto!
The navy ordered two war ships to
Tampico.
Meanwhile the revolution (there
was one general and so mem was in

The Mexican government promptly
sent a detachment of soldiers in pur-

MEMBERSHIP In
LABOR UNION
No Cause For Discharge,
Holds Railroad Labor
Board

Chicago.-The United States labor
board has ruled that q railroad can
not discharge an employe because he
joins a labor union and has ordered
the Butler County railroad, 41-mile
line in southern Missouri, to reinstate
two employees and pay them for time
lost.
The decision is in opposition to de-
cisions by the United States supreme
court that railroad can discharge
for any reason or no reason.
The board has no power to enforce
its decree but insists that congress
did not intend or expect to limit the
labor board according to the strict
rights of the parties, because if it did
the disputes never could be solved" !"
Attention is called to that portion of
the Cummins- -Esch law which declares
that the public interest demands con-
tinuous and uninterrupted operation
of the transportation lines.
"It is plausible to assume" says
the board, "that the purpose of con-
gress Tin passing the transportation
act) was to provide as effective means
as possible to prevent an interruption
of traffic growing out of disputes.
But without regard to which view of
the purpose of this legislation is cor
rect. the board, nevertheless, feels that
it shoul decide all disputes in man
ner just and reasonable to the parties
concerned"

STRENGTH IN UNION

The years of 1921 and 1922 will be
fateful years to all the labor unions
of the United States All of the po-
litical, financial and industrial power
possessed by employers inimical to
unionism is to be used in ar attempt
to crush the labor movement of this
country. And they will succeed just
in proportion as there is disagreement
among the membership of the unions.
And they will fail just in proportion
as the members of the unions sink all
their differences among themselves
and fight back as only an undivided
organization can fight. Millions of
men and women are in labor unions
because they know that their unions
secured for them better wages and
proper living conditions to which they
are entitled. Should they lose their
unions they know they will lose every
advantage in industrial life. Life,
then, would scarcely be worth living.
No power can defeat union wage
workers if they stick together!
