Daily Poem
TIT NEWSPAPER MAN

Bit of priest and bit of a sailor,
Bit. Of doctor and BIT Of a tailor,
BIT of a lawyer and bit OF detective,
But of Judge, for his work is cor

Cheering the living and soothing the
dying,
Risking all things, even daredevil
flying;
True To his paper and true to his clan
Just look him over, the newspaper
man.
sleep! There are times when he'll do
with d little,
Work till his nerves and his temper
are brittle;
Fire cannot daunt him, nor long hours
disturb him;
Gold cannot buy him and threats can
not curb him;
Highbrow CT lowbrow, your own
speech he'll hand you;
Talk as you will to him; he II under
stand you;
He'll go wherever another man can
That is the way of the newspaper
man.
Surgeon, il urgent the need be, you II
find him,
Ready to help, nor will dizziness blind
him,
He'll give the ether and never once
falter,
Say the last rites like a priest at the
altar;
Gentle and tind with the weak and
the weary,
Which is proved now and then when
his keen eye grows teary.
Facing all things in life S curious plan
That is the way of the newspaper
man.
enc night a week may be rest from
his labor,
One night at home to be father and
neighbor,
Just a few hours for his own bit OF
leisure,
All the rests gazing at other ihen S

All the rests toiling, and yet he re-
joices,
All the world is, and that men do, he

Who knows a calling more glorious

Consider Well
These Points

Mrs Home Builder-did you ever
consider the advantage of buying
guaranteed lumber? Every piece of
material we ship you will be guaran-
iced to run true to grade.
Further than that, we are in posi-
ton to undersell the average lumber
dealer by reason of the fact that our
lumber is shipped direct from the mill
to you.
We do away with the profits which
are usually paid to the wholesalers
and retailers. AND WE PAY THE
FREIGHT.

BurlesOnism JOlted

Washington, June 1S.-Postmas-
ter General Hays has jolted Burle-
sonism and post office autocracy
by this order:
"Postmasters are authorized to
grant hearings to employees or rep
resentatives of employees who may
so desire i'm connection with the
remedying of local conditions in the
service which are in the interest of
the postal service and the welfare
of the employees, and to take such
action as may meet with their ap-
proval and be within their author
ity to correct.
"If departmental action is neces-
sary to change practices or poll
cies, or to correct abuses, or if the
postmaster is in doubt as to the
procedure in the circumstances,
prompt report of all the facts
should be made to the proper bu-
reau officer with appropriate rec
concentrations.
"No discrimination should be
made in favor of any particular in
dividual employe, any particular
group of employees, or any particu-
lar organization, but all should re-
ceive like treatment and considera-
tion,"
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1921-06-21

/ would even then be worthy, hun
dred fold, of all the finance and
effort we put into it.
"No investment ever made by
mortal man brings such results as
does the investment of money and
effort in the economic effort of the
workers. 1t is my conviction that
but for the trade union movement
in this country at this particular
time, our country would be rocked
by anarchy and chaos that would
equal the worst situation now ex-
listing in the old world
with all due regard to we'll
meaning statesmen and liberators
outside the movement, the sheet an
chor of all our liberties, and our
opportunities for the future, is the
economic movement and power of
the workers, throughout this dis
tressed world.
There never was a time in our
history when intelligent, united and
vigorous effort and protest was de-
manded more of the men and wo-
men who do the useful work of our
country than now. Smaller differ
ences must be swept aside in this
fight for the salvation and pro-
motion of the rights of man.
"ln spite of this tremendous
marshalling of the forces of reac-
tion, the trade unions have served
the workers splendidly."

Sheriff Is Advised

Raleigh, N. c.. June 1S.-In re-
ply to the demand for troops, Gov
ernor Morrison notified an excited
sheriff to have a lawyer inform
him of his duty and his power.
Textile workers throughout the
state are striking against wage re-
ductions, and Sheriff Cochran, of
Mecklenburg County, wired the
governor that he could not main
tain peace. In reply the governor
said:
1T is your duty to have suffi-
cient deputies to discharge the du-
ties of your office, and you can
summon for temporary service any
citizen of your county, and force
him, in the event of threatened
riot, to serve. | advise that YOU
consult an able lawyer at once and
fully acquaint yourself with your
duty and the power given you by
law to discharge it.
81 will not hesitate to use the
adiutant generals military force to
aid in preserving the peace and
protecting the legal rights of the
citizens of any county. but it has
too often occurred in the past in
this state that the local authori-
ties in vacillation and weakness
failed to perform their clear duty
and thereby made necessary the use
of state troops"

Workers Show Fraud
In Rail Management

Denver, June 1S.-Despite a hos
tile press and Wall street influ-
ence, organized railroad shop en-
ployes have exposed railroad fraud,
says John Scott, secretary-treasur-
er Of the A. f. of L. railway en-
ployes' department, in his annual
report.
"'Back to normalcy,' he says,
has decreed that the national
agreement must be abrogated be-
cause it is the will of the dominat-
ing interests. in Wall street mouthed
by a minority group of railroad
executives headed by Atterbury of
the Pennsylvania railroad. This in
face of the fact that we have
turned the tables upon them in de-
fense of the national agreement,
exposing gigantic fraud inefficient
management and deliberate extrav-
agance aggregating many millions
of dollars in the first instance to
discredit government control of the
| railroads and secondly to be used

accomplished within the limited time
and but for the usual handicap Of
being denied the publicity of the
press, feel assured that with the
full facts before the public, expos
ing as we have the most gigantic
conspiracy, public sentiment would
have, ere this time, demanded the
prompt release of the railroads from
the hands of these human vultures.
"The uncertainties of the future
as to the policy of the railroads,
and the early realization of what
, can be expected from the present
administration in Washington, seems
to give ample assurance that the
work of this department will not
be lessened during the coming
year, but we also feel assured that
this awakening will, in due time,
show beneficial results"

THE ONLY WAY

All the conferences and commit
tees of taxpayers, in all their sug-
gestions of ways to reduce the bur
dens of taxation, can find nothing
but the cutting of wages as a
means.
The cutting of wages means that
those of our people least able to
bear the tax burdens are made less
able to bear those burdens. When
will this simple lesson be learned 4?
Beside this means of tax re-
duction are others which might be
considered but for the reason that
those most able to pay will not
consider them.
You hear nothing about the re-
duction of rents or interests, or
a just equalization of taxation
such as raising the taxes on un-
used land and unearned incomes,
the encouragement of building op-
erations by making material cheap
er, and a number of other equal
izers.
No, no. The frenzy of profit
getting has taken hold of the peo-
pie. There is a mad rush to get
the money. Get it fairly if you
can, but get it,"
Attention is called to the pro-
visions of four bills introduced by
Congressman Keller of Minnesota
in this issue. 1t will not hurt you
to read the story, but it may change
your mind, or start you to think
ing.

Oil Men Protest

Tulsa, Okla, June 1S.-Oil mems
associations in Oklahoma, Kansas,
Texas and Louisiana have forward
ed joint protest to Secretary of
State Hughes against the United
States government obiecting to the
new Mexican tax on crude oil when
shipped from that country.
The oil men say that 80 per cent
of this oil comes into the United
States duty free, and that the same
interests which are protesting
against Mexico's export tax are
vigorously opposing any attempt by
congress to tax this oil when it
reaches the United States bound
ary.
'The oil industry in the United
States is 60 per cent shut down,
and hundreds of thousands of men
are out of employment" the oil men
declare.
"These selfish interests absorb
the markets of our country with
cheaply produced and cheaply trans
ported products from Mexico, upon
which they pay no taxes to this
country, and ask the government
of the United States to aid them
in avoidig taxation in Mexico. We
most vigorously protest against the
government of the United States
interfering with the system of tax
alton on oil promulgated by the re-
public of Mexico or any other
country so long as that system
of taxation is levied equally against
all foreigners."

Liberty's Bulwark
Is Organized Labor

Denver, June 1S.-The economic
movement of the workers is the
best defense of their liberties, de-
clared James Lord, president of the
A. F. of l.. mining department, in
his annual report.
In vigorous terms the unionist
scored bourbon influences and in
sisted that but for organized labor
conditions in America would equal
the worst situation that now exists
in the old world.
"There is general cry on the
oart of the bourbons and their har-
lots of the press and platform for
wage reductions, the lengthening
of the work day and the breaking
down of well-established conditions
of labor" he said "In the face of
all this reaction, of plots hatched
in the injunction field, the legisla-
lures, and in chambers of commerce,
it must occur to all who are not en-
tirely blind to their affairs, that if
the labor movement did nothing
else. under the circumstances, than
prevent these baneful interests from
driving us backward, from taking
any more of our liberties away, it

AS evidencing what may be ac-
complshed by efficient manage
ment Ford calls attention to the
satisfactory operating conditions
that have been evolved since he be-
came owner of the Detroit and
IrontOn.
In one month, with a reduced
revenue of 100000, it showed a
profit, where formerly, he says,
there had been a 100000 deficit.
The Detroit, Toledo and Ironton
operates nearly 400 miles of track
and employees several hundred work
ers. The wage increase announced
by Ford is the first of several for
ward-looking plans announced some
time ago as then being worked out
by the management.

Wage cutting has never been
popular with Henry Ford Recent

continuously lower the cost of his
product to the public and increase

that to be his conception of his OBJ
legation as trustee of a great man
ufacturing plant.
Last fall he put the quietus on
the plan of about 25 factories in
the East making Ford parts to take
advantage of the reduction in mo-
tor car prices announced by him.
They had announced to their en-
rloyes that the reduction in the price
of cars would mean that they would
have to furnish parts more cheaply
and that wages would have to come
down
A conciliator of the Department
of Labor took the matter to the
Ford company and received assur-
ances that wages would not be cut.
He had previously announced, when
his attention was called to the ac-
tion proposed by auxiliary manu-
facturers, that he would make parts
in his own plant.
1t was learned afterward that
Ford had offered to send experts
to the parts factories to show the
| arrangements how to keen wages
at their level by improving man
ufacturing methods and eliminating
waste.
