is THE MOST HEARTLESS PHRASE THAT EVER
CREPT INTO THE HUMAN VOCABULARY
DECLARES GOMPERS
Means Taking Something From Life Where There Has
Never Been Abundance

No more heartless phrase has ever
crept into the human vocabulary
than the phrase "defation of labor. "
1t is well enough and proper enough
to speak of the defiation of inanimate
things. The meaning of delation is
clear. The word brings to mind the
exact process that is meant by the
word.
Defation means subtraction. 1t
means taking away something, or let
ting out something, or reducing the
size or bulk of something so that it
will occupy smaller space than for
merly.
Labor is human life. Labor is in
separable from human beings Labor
means the warmth of life and the
functioning of hand and brain. 1t
means the men and women at the
work benches and in the street. 1t
means the children in school and in
the home. 1t means the family circle.
Debating labor means subtracting

MOOSE EXPO
Attendance Seems Growing
Greater Each Night

The Greater Hamilton Exposition,
like good wine that grows better with
age, seems to grow better and greater
and more popular each day, judging
from the enormous attendance present
each night. Last Saturday night was
a record breaker and Aaron Eggle-
ston, chairman of the committee in
charge, wore a smile that was as
broad as the Ferris wheel is high, and
it is some height.
Aaron had right to smile for the
grounds were literally packed, and it
was almost impossible to get around;
but at the same time it is only a
crowning success that the committee
is deserving of for their untiring
efforts to give Hamilton the greatest
thing in the way of an exposition of
any kind that it has ever enjoyed.
The big free acts of this week are
truly wonders. The "Flying Floyds''
in high class, sensational trapeze
and casting act, featuring the only
lady in the world who catches double,
is a thriller and keeps the audience
catching it's breath.

HAVE NO PROFITS
So Co-Ops. Should Not Be
Taxed, Says Britisher

London, England.-In opposing the
attempt to enforce the corporation
profits tax on cooperative societies,
Sir John Simon says:
"The scheme of cooperative So
ciety is in its essence this, that a
number of persons, who are called the
members, join together to make pur-
chases 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. 1t is clear, there
fore, 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 main 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 it's 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 secured
a car for $500, and returned to his
employer the 920O less his commission
and expenses, and any other sum
which his employer had instructed
him to pay. 1t would not occur to
anybody to say that what the en-
ployer received back was profit on
the transaction"

POPULIST THEORIES

houses, urged by populists 80 years
ago, was favored by President Kent,
of the Passaic IN. J) Merchants
bank at meeting of the newlyform-
ed stable monely league.
The meeting was attended by econ
omists, bankers and lawmakers. In
stead of hooting the Passaic citizen,
as was the custom 80 years ago when
a so-called "bewhiskered populist'
spoke, Mr.. Kent was elected vice
president of the organization.
His most sensational statement was
the proposal to take the money value
out of gold.
He favored a plan to establish gov
ernment warehouses wherein could be
deposited iron,coal, cloth, wheat,
leather and similar commodities that
are susceptible to storage without
undue deterioration within limited
period.
The speaker said there are strong
movements abroad at the present
time to establish such warehouses in
order to take the control of vital pro-
ducts out of the hands of certain
classes of middlemen.
"The number of commodities select
ed should be small enough to keep
the scheme simple" said the speaker.
ct should be large enough to guard
against any violent effect, upon the
value of the aggregate due to fall
ure in the crop, such as cotton, or to
crop failure in geographical section,
such as readily imaginable case in
which the south might have very
bad year in cotton, tobacco and grain.
"A suitable composite unit should
be constructed, perhaps with refer
ence to the average consumption OF
normal family for year. A certifi-
cate should be issued upon the deposit
of due proportions of the chosen COM
modities. The dollar should then be
defined in terms of the unit aggre-
gate of these commodities and of
fractions of the unit"

CPrussian Minister Of the Interior.)
We were fully prepared for this
move by the communists them
selves. For a long time they had
warned us through public an
nouncements, mass meetings and
their press.
The action was taken after the
Silesian plebiscite when the gov
ernment was having trouble with
the Poles in addition to the repair
atoms question, in hopes that we
would be too occupied to offer suf-
ficient resistance to prevent spread
of the uprisings throughout Ger
many. with consequent fall Of the
present administration.
We were also informed that great
quantities of dynamite and NUM-
tions were being smuggled from
central Germany into other parts
Of the country preparatory to q
general uprising. 1t was to pre-
vent this and restore the authority
of the state that we decided to dis
patch our safety police into the af-
fected district.
Reports of the formation of .
"red army" have been greatly ex-
aggerated. We are convinced that
we will be able to crush the upris-
inss by tomorrow.
