B. of |. {. To Erect
q Story Building
(By Federated Press)

Cleveland-At the last convention
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers, held here in Cleveland, it was
decided to erect a new 23-story bank
and office building on the present
site of the B. and l.. E. Cooperative
National bank. The extraordinary
growth of the institution has made
this action imperative.
"Then, too, our depositors number
more than 5000 and our resources at
the time of the last report, June Is,
totaled $8,278,943.43, an increase of
more than a million a month since the
opening on November l, 1920"
This was the reply of Miss Esher
B. MacGugin, publicity manager for
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers' Cooperative National bank
of Cleveland, when asked if the CO.
operative plan proved a success in the
banking industry.
The cooperative plan is, of course,
the salient feature of the labor bank.
Under it the dividends to stockholders
are limited to 10 per cent per annum
and the balance of profits turned over
to the depositors. The July report
shows an item of $23,712.55 as un-
divided profits. The deposiors, in
cluding q large number of labor Or
ganizations in addition to the affili-
ated locals of the B of L. E., have the
privilege Of per cent interest on
savings deposits in addition to their
share of profits. At the time of the
July report savings deposits totaled
$3,450,445.86 and demand deposits
$1,751 ,26019. The increase, on one
day alone, August 1, 1921, was $874,-
1924 in savings and commercial
deposits.

when wage reductions are frequent,
all should unite to support the land
values tax, for, more than any other
piece of legislation that could be de-
vised, it will have the beneficial effects
| have Just described.
81 am aware that there are those
on both sides of this Chamber, who
well know that what | state are the
facts, but who, instead of support
ing this bill as a consequence, will
oppose it the more strenuously. In
fortunately there are those in both
Houses of our National Congress who
seem to deem it their duty to con-
serve the interests Of the owners of
swollen fortunes and unused mono
poles rather than to devote their
energies to the end that the great
mass of our people may be better fed,
better clothed, better housed, better
happier citizens. Thank God! | am
not one Of these. | believe that the
security and permanence of our Gov
ernment depends primarily upon the
rank and file of the people who form
its real strength--the manual workers
who toll IN the city and those who till
the soil-all those engaged in useful
industry--and / all the more firmly
and more sincerely advocate the pas
sage of this bill because | know it
will Tighten the load on the backs of
the workers and materially improve
the conditions of all who labor either
with their Drawn or their brain. That
is the principal reason why | am in
Producing this bill, not only because
it offers the best way of collecting
needed governmental revenue but be-
cause in addition it will so improve
industrial and agricultural and bust
ness conditions as to make for heath
ier and happier men and women and
boys and girls in every part of this
great country.
81 want to make it plain that my
four bills must stand or fall together.
If they are not treated as part of one
program, l shall withdraw my bills
repeating the taxes on excess profits
and corporate incomes. But if passed
as introduced, they will shift the
burden of government from producers
to non-producers and immeasurably
benefit conditions for labor and the
farmers"

Object to Piece Work
Being Re-estabIished
(By Federated Press)

Chicago-"More than 80 per cent of
the railway workers of this country
are unalterably opposed to return to
piece work and to the restoration of
overtime without punitive provisions.
Many of the men will walk out rather
than submit to such working condi-
tions."
This is the message delivered to The
United States railway labor board by
representatives Of the system fedora
tions charged with that duty by the
railway employees of the various roads
Seventy roads are before the labor
board seeking the reestablishment Of
the piece work system, abolished for
a monthly or hourly rate during gov
ernmenJ control. The eastern repre-
sentatives had the floor first and the
sentiment of the various committee
men was epitomized by one who said:
"Piece work is corrupting, destroys
moral, is inefficient and makes liars
and cheats of the men in order that
they may earn a decent living" "In
1919 no less than 90 per cent of the
men declared themselves opposed to
piece work and recent surveys show
that more than 80 per cent are op-
posed to it now," said another spokes-
man.
Twenty hours are to be devoted to
the presentation of the workers case
and five hours to the rebuttal of the
executives. Leland Olds of the re-
search department of The Railway
Employees department of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor will present
an exhaustive study of the piece
work system to the board as a part
of the employees argument.

business judgment, therefore, relates
primarily and perhaps wholly to the
few upper officials of the company
who took the initiative.
1t is not reasonable to assume, the
brief declares, that managers with the
reputed ability of those at the head
Of the Pennsy would make an error
of judgment involving more than $3,-
100000 "in matter of equipment re-
pair of which all the factors are well
known and the subject of years of
experience"

paid by the consumer. This meant
high prices, and high prices caused
the buyers strike The result has
been shutdown factories, empty stores
and widespread unemployment. |
want to levy taxes where they can
not be shifted to the consumer and
where they will not paralyze produc-
ton and cause industrial idleness.
"The whole tendency of my tax
program is to take the burden off
those who produce and place it upon
industrial drones who live off the la
1or of others. The tax on estates will
correct past injustice and take a
larger share of swollen fortunes. 1t
will break up the dangerous concen-
tration Of wealth that is endangering
the future of this nation.
"The differentiation between earn
ed and unearned income will relieve
the wage worker and salary man of
half his present tax and make the
coupon clipper and mortgage-loan
shark pay twice as much.
"The tax on land values, after i'm
provements are deducted, and a $10,-
600 exemption allowed, will not fall
upon the small home owner or pro-
ducing farmer, but will hit monopol
ization of land, lumber, coal and all
natural resources. The owner of va
cant city lots will pay the same tax
as the man who's property is i'm
proved. This will compel him to build
on his property or to sell it to some
one who will. This will soon remedy
the housing situation and a building
boom will help labor by providing
employment and reducing rents. Idle
farm land will be made productive
and owners of undevcloped coal lum-
Der and oil lands will be forced to
develop their property-which will
lower prices through competition and
also provide employment. There is
about $50,O00,000 worth of such prop
erty in the United States today which
does not pay one penny of federal
taxes and my bills will correct this
rank injustice.
Same as Wage Increase
Naturally, any tax reform that
will break up monopoly and tighten
the tax burden upon the general pub
lie will increase real wages by IN
creasing the purchasing power of la
bor." Congressman Keller said in his
Introductory speech: "The land values
tax, by relieving the American public
of at least $5,000,000,000 which it
now pays in the form of inflated
prices, due to various taxes upon bust
ness which are finally passed on to
the people, will increase the purchas-
ing power of the average family be-
tween $3.50 and $500 a year. This is
equivalent to an increase of wages to
this amount; in fact, of more than
this amount, for the competition it in
duces will also reduce prices of every
thing except wages At time when
there is widespread unemployment
and distress throughout the country,
