A FORECAST OF M|LADY'S
 WARDROBE THIS FALL
By the Designer.

San Francisco, July 21, written for the Miner.-The fashionable women's world will find in the autumn styles offerings a catering equally to the chick young maid and stateliest woman.
 For street and home day attire many browns are to find favor in shades both rich and subdued, hint ing comfortableness in which one finds solace in cloaking oneself on the first frosty days.
 Each season brings forth different hues of standard -colors under new names. This fall is no exception. New shades appearing for first show ings are characterized as follows: Mecca, friar, Eskimo, saddle, gypsy and nubian, the latter having a high luster shading to a deep copper red. Nubian will likely find more general favor than it's associates.
 Tailored costumes are to be touched with brilliancy exemplified in reddish shades displayed under names of buddah, a coppery red ,and Indian Red. Vionnet and voilet are two en- trancing French novelties of reddish cast.
 Burgundy tones of late favor are1 again finding pleasure in the season colorings of fabrics, appearing in two tones of off shades of purple, styled grape juice and loganberry.
 With entry of the chilly blasts from off the snowy regions will come decreasing popularity of grays, yet the restricted and dignified pilgrim and plymouth will be ultra modish. Amongst the blues, admiral, reflect ing deep navy, becomes the leader with greens running to nature tones of forest hues. Balsam Is green oddity of distinct blue undertones and Bagdad is a greenish blue. Black is foremost for evening wear with favor trailing to brilliant tones and beautiful pastels. Sunburst is roseate yellow; in two shades of poppy red and deep rose are gaiety; sat suma, dull orange overcast with the pinkish shade so often displayed on Japanese pottery. Matrix and yama are exotic jade green and whirlpool is descriptive of its blue shot-green of foaming waters.

Railroad Managers Are Told to Reform
or Get Out

"Unless railroad managers and rail
road bankers quit fighting ilroad
employees and get down to lne busi-
ness of operating the roads in the in
terest of the public and real investors,
it will be necessary, very soon, for
the government to take over and
operate the roads,"
This was the view expressed by
John j. Pulleyn, president of the Emil
grant Industrial Savings Bank of New
York, and chairman of the Bankers
Railroad Securities Committee, in an
address at Philadelphia before the
National Conference of Mutual Saw
ings Banks of the United States.
"The Esch- -Cummins act is specific
in what the railroads were to do," he
said. "There were no national agree
ments in law to annul or to abrogate.
The Cummins-Esch act provided that
six months after the railroads were
returned the railroads would operate
under those agreements. 1t was
specific in stating that each railroad
should take up with its own men the

FAVOR JOINT BARGAINING

Berlin, Germany-At the annual
convention of the federation of en-
ployers' associations, held in this city,
it was reported that last year $4,000
collective agreements were concluded
with wage earners. The theory of
collective bargaining is generally ac-
cepted by the employers. On January
last the federation included 1851
employers associations, with more
than 100000 establishments, employ
ing 100000 workers. It's member
ship more than doubled last year.

THE "OPEN SHOP" DRIVE

The "open shop" movement has at
last assumed definite shape in New
ark and an active campaign has been
inaugurated by a number of manu-
featuring, building and kindred in
terests to force out the union men in
their employ and establish the "open
shop" under the misleading title of
the american Plan"
A number of star chamber sessions
have been held at the Chamber of
Commerce headquarters, and~at rep
resentative gathering Monday night
eight soliciting committees were ap-
pointed to call on employers and
manufacturers and ask them to sign
up for the open shop. Since that time
these committees have been working
tooth and toenail, and are meeting
with partial success, it is claimed, al
though the result of their labors is
kept under the hat.
With one exception no counter move
by organized labor has been made
public. The exception referred to is
that of the bakers who walked out
week ago when a renewal of their
yearly contract was refused by the
boss bakers. Since their walk-out
couple of their leading members have

wages. 1t could do it direct, through
boards or committees, or in any way
it saw fit. Why, then, was not this
done? Do you not feel that the only
way to proceed is the proper way?

"There has to be a change in exist

The speaker pointed out that while
stockholders and bondholders had in

had prior lien on the properties, but
without voting power, and "that lien
will be subjected to great loss if the
railroads are not shortly placed in
position to enable them to earn suf-
ticient money to protect their bonds" s"

renigged and are now "scabbing" in
one of the uptown shops.
At the last meeting of the Newark
Trades and Labor Assembly an Ar
bitration Committee was appointed
for the purpose of assisting, if pos
sible, in the adjustment Of any diff
ferences arising between the en-
ployer and employe, in a manner
satisfactory to both parties. This
committee is ready at all times to
meet, either separately or jointly
with the interested parties.
The Leader deplores the "union
busting" move now on foot, and be-
lieves it a mistake on the part of
those who instigated and are pro-
noting it. Newark is strongly or
ganized, town, and has always been
conservative in the labor movement,
and has that reputation throughout
the state. For years past the most
friendly and harmonious relations
have existed between the employer
and the men working for them, and
drastic action at this time, resulting
in severing such relation, cannot
but result in disaster and financial
loss to both parteis. 1t is sincerely
to be hoped thta an amicable arrange
ment may be arrived at in the near
future.

New Effort Started
TO Free Tom Mooney

San Francisco-A new move to Sc
cure a retrial for Thomas Mooney
has been made by Byron C. Parker,
an attorney in this city, in the court
of Superior Judge Louderback.
The attorney has devoted months
to research and has prepared his case
on the ancient common law writ
"audita querela" (after the complaint
has been heard), which was used in
cases where judgment was rendered
to call the courts attention to ad-
ditional evidence that would affect the
decision if known at the time.
This writ is based on the maxim
of Anglo-Saxon Jurisprudence, "wherc
there is wrong, there is a remedy"
The writ was framed in England after
the signing of Magma Charta in 1915,
when the barons wrested historic
guarantees from King John. The
writ was used for the first time in
the fourteenth century during the
reign of Edward III. 1t fell into dis
use more than 100 years ago, when
the courts of England had established
their inherent right to correct er-
roneous judgments under similar cir
cumstances. In the early reign of
Queen Victoria, however, the courts,
were given the explicit right to vacate
judgments on new discovered evil
dence that proved the right of the
defendant to release from the iudg-
ment
Attorney Parker shows that this
writ operated to secure final justice
in France for Captain Dreyfus.
The California state supreme
court has ruled that there is nothing
in the record of the Mooney trial to
prove irregularities and has refused
to consider evidence of wrong that
has been discovered since the records
were closed.
The writ of audita querela would
permit the court to consider new
evidence.

JEWS FAVOR LABOR
UNIONISM UPHELD BY AMERI-
CAN RABBIS
Declare That "LabOrs Only Safeguard
Against RetrOgressiOn to For
mer Inhuman Standards
Is the Union"

shington-Labor's right to or
ganize and bargain collectively
through representatives of it's own
choosing was approved at a confer
ence of American rabbis, held in this
city. The conference reaffrmed the
position on this subject by the central
conference of American rabbis in
Rochester, last June.
The widespread propaganda now
being made against collective bar
gaining impelled these Jewish church
men to reiterate their position.
'The conference holds" it was
stated, "that the overthrow of the
labor union would mean a collapse of
the whole structure of industrial peace
and order which rests upon the labor
unions as one of it's chief foundations.
Moreover, the displacement of the
labor union would inevitably result
in the strengthening of the hands of
such extremists within the labor
group as already decry the practice
of collective bargaining through union
organization, as a method too con-
servative and Intellectual for the the
attainment of industrial justice. Vic
tory for these radical elements in the
ranks of labor would jeopardize the
fundamental institutions of our re-
pubic.
"The conferences belief, therefore,
in the fundamental truth of the
Rochester declaration on collective
bargaining remains unchanged. With
out the union, all labor would still be
the victim of the long day, the in
sufficient wage and kindred injustices
"Under the present organization of
society, labor's only safeguard against
retrogression to former inhuman
standards is the union"

Striking Painters
Expose CrOOkedness

Cincinnati - Low wage painting
contractors are exposed by striking
employees, who demand 81 an hour
and improved working conditions.
The painters publicity committee
shows that if this rule were adopted
it would protect the public, and would
make three coats of paint impossible
where the specifications call for more,
with the contractor pocketing the diff
ference.
"If specifications called for five or
six coats of paint" says the COM
mittee, "that job would get five or
six coats of paint, and we would be
protecting the property owner, who
has the work done. The contractor
in the painting line is getting lot
of money under false pretenses when
he uses these tactics, and the public
is paying him.
"They yell about the size of brushes
a man shall use, which is Az inches.
A brush in oil colors of any greater
width is an impossibility, as a man
can not do a strictly first class job
with brush of any greater width.
"The also tell the public that we
refuse to carry five pounds and one
gallon of paint on job. We do this
when we must carry this on our own
time.
"We presented our agreement in
ample time for the contractors con-
sideration, New York, Chicago, Bal
timOre, Boston and St. Louis firms
come to this city and get work and
pay higher wages. If out-of-town
contractors can come to Cincinnati
and underbid painting contractors
here and pay higher wages, what
would have been the profits of local
contractors if they had gotten the
work?" -.

Many Deaths in Industry

Chicago-Deaths in industry ex-
ceed those in war, and this condition
will continue as long as workers ac-
cept the employers theory that life
is cheap, says President Perkins of
the Cigar Makers International
union, writing in the official magazine
of that organization.
The number of American soldiers
killed in battle is placed at 50,151,
and during the same period the
number of American workers killed
in their line of duty was 1864" i"
says the trade unionist.
"On the battle front men laid their
lives on the altar of patriotism and
gladly sacrificed themselves for an
ideal. In the mines and mills, on the
railroads, wherever industry turns the
wheels of progress, men, women and
little children lay their lives on the
altar Of necessity, and die in striving
for the wage that means shelter, food
and clothing for themselves and those
dependent on them.
"The mutiliations of modern war
fare are not to be compared with the
mutilations of high-speed industrial
endeavor. For every man blown to
pieces by gun fire we find two or
more have been blown to pieces in
our mines and quarries by premature
blasts of the deadly mine gas.

CUT UNCALLED FOR
PRICES DON'T JUSTIFY WAGE
SLASH BY TRUST
Living Costs Advance One Hundred
Per Cent Against Reduction of
Twelve Per Cent During
Past Seven Years

Washington-"The is no justifca-
ton for the steel trusts 20 per cent
wage reduction" said Frank Morri-
son, A. F. of L. secretary, in COM
menting on Judge Gary's announced
wage cut.
Government figures" said the
trades unionist, "show that the aver
age cost of living on January / Of
this year was 100 per cent above 1913.
During the first three months of this
year the food products, composing 38
per cent of the family budget, was re-
duced IL per cent.
"The employees of the steel trust
are unorganized The question of
wages and hours of it's employees are
decided by the company. The steel
trust is law unto itself and is per-
mitted to violate the anti-truA laws
because of the fear that it will inter-
fere with foreign trade.
"The company limited some time
ago that it would eliminate the seven
day week and the 24-hour turnover
and consider the question of estab
fishing the eight-hour day. Now, it
is claimed that steel employees do not
favor the eight-hour day, but want
the 12-hour day. The same argument
has always been used by employers
to justify the long work-day.
All reports of workers wanting a
longer work-day are issued by repre-
sentatives of companies who cut the
hourly rate, and then increase the
daily wage by increasing the number
of hours worked each day. If the
steel workers were organized, they
would be in a position to resist this
arbitrary wage reduction, but with
out organization the workers are as
helpless to resist the will of the steel
trust as the government has been to
have it obey the laws of the land"

TO EXPLOIT CHINESE

Washington-The house of repre-
sentatives passed the Dyer act which
provides for the incorporation by the
federal government of business enter
prises that would exploit Chinese
cheap labor and that country's un-
limited resources.
These concerns, that will do bust
ness in China, will be outside the
control of any state, will have per-
petual charters and be exempt from
taxes, while having the protection of
the American flag. Congressman
Rankin declared that the plan is equal
to the imperialistic policy of Germany
and would breed trouble for u.s."
Congressman Sisson said: "This is a
most radical departure on the part
of the federal government in creating
for the first time in the history of the
country a federal charter for few
people who may take advantage of
the federal charters to develop re-

ject of this bill is to avoid tax which
present corporations, as now consti-
tuted, would have to pay in this coun-
try like other citizens to do business
in China.
"This bill is to enable the great
corporations of the United States to
get these federal charters, thus avoid
ing state control and all state taxa
tion. Now, taxes are so high in the
states and in the nation that big bust
ness is beginning to avoid the burden,
and this congress is taking this, the
first step, to bring about system of
law that will place the burden of our
federal and state taxes upon the back
of the masses of the people"
