WILL STRIKE AGAINST WAR
British Miners Federation Announces
Intention in Case of Another In
ternational Conflict.

The British Miners Federation de-
cided in case an international war is
threatened that an international mi
ners conference will be called and the
miners of all nations will cease work
Immediately, according to a statement
made by Robert Smillie at the trade
union congress at Cardiff.
His statement was made during de-
bate on resolution welcoming the
Washington conference but claiming
the right of organized labor to repre-
sentatiOn thereto. The resolution,
which was overwhelmingly carried,
also protested against the British gov
ernment's decision to carry out an "ex-
tensive program Of armaments" and
asked for the suspension Of all prep
arations for war until the Washington
conference had finished It's work.

OUR ANNIVERSARY

With this issue the Newark Leader
enters upon it's fifth year of existence
as a defender of the rights and priv
ileges of the working people. We be-
lieve our efforts have met the ap-
proval of the people in whose inter
ests it was established and for whose
benefit it is published, and that we
have gained prestige among the bus
mess element of the city whose well
fare and progress we have ever en-
deavored to promote. Believing
that the eXpanse between the en-
ployer and employe, the widening of
which appears sometimes inivitable,
can only retard the interests of all, we
have advocated closer harmony aud
cooperation, as a peaceful solution
of difficulties, if the same can be ac-
complished without the surrender of
any inalienable rights of labor.
Samuel Gompers said "Were it rot
for the Labor Press the labor move
ment would not be where it is today
Any man who tries to injure labor
paper is traitor to the cause In
jury to a labor paper is almost as
great by not subscribing for it, and
paying for it, as it is to talk AMI
work against it. The labor movement
is today facing situation as serious
as any it has ever been up against,
and the need of publicity was never
more urgent than it is at the present
time, and it is eminently proper that
union men should support their own
paper in preference to those which
never have and never will give organ
ized labor a fair deal in their
columns.
The path of the labor editor is not
strewn with roses. He has his trou-
bles, and many of them. He is
blamed, criticized and cussed, but still
he goes on hoping that some day there
will be an awakening Of labor to the
proper appreciation of his efforts
With this thought before us we shall
continue to maintain our past open
and frank policy in the defense of
truth and righteousness, accepting
the teachings of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor as an embodiment Of
those principles.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1921-11-11
VICIOUS SENATE BILL

If the Nelson bill, that slipped
through the senate several weeks ago
was law, Federal Judge Anderson
would have a weapon to enforce his
anti-unionization injunction against
every citizen who dared dispute his
edict.
The Nelson bill provides that a fed
eral judge can order the arrest of a
person residing outside his (the
Judges jurisdiction and the person
shall be denied the right of a prelimi-
nary hearing in the federal court in
the jurisdiction of his residence.
This bill was quietly showed through
the senate when less than half a dozen
members were present. Organized la
Dor protested to the country so vigor-
ously that no one in the house dares
champion it or is willing to take the
odium of attempting to get it out of
committee.
Under this bill the jurisdiction of
an injunction judge would include all
territory under the American flag. If
one dared criticise Judge Anderson's
injunction, or if Mingo county miners
were encouraged in their stand by any
trade unionst, regardless of where he
lives, Judge Anderson, like Caesar of
old, could order his arrest. The ac-
cused would be taken to indianapolis
and called upon by Judge Anderson
to show cause why he should not be
fined and jailed for contempt of court.
The Nelson bill is a startling il
lustration of plutocracy's cunning and
stealth. 1t also shows the necessity
for constant vigilance by organized |
labor.

ADVERTISING is TO SELLING
WHAT LATHERING is TO
SHAVING

| hastened into barber's shop the
other day and asked if I could be
shaved in five minutes. "Yep!" was
the reply. The barber quickly applied
the soap. He began lathering until
felt sure / would miss my train. Still
he kept on plying his soap brush. l
was saying to myself, "Why doesn't
he quit this process and get busy with
his razor?" That would have been
my way of shaving myself in hurry.
When he did finally take up his razor,
the job was over in jiffy. And l
caught my train.
The incident, for some reason or
other, begot this thought in my mind:
Lathering is to shaving very much
the same thing as advertising is to
selling. If you do enough preliminary
work and do it properly, so that
groundwork has been thoroughly pre-
pared, then the resistance is very
greatly reduced, and it is possible
either to shave with less trouble or to
sell goods with less trouble. A good
many business men are as foolish as
| would have been in trying to shave
myself in a hurry: They don't use
enough advertising before. starting to
try to get results. They don't apply
enough advertising lather.

OTHER LABOR NOTES

Wholesale resumption of work in
the Tampico (Mex.) oil district is re-
ported In dispatches from that city.
Hundreds Of workers are returning to
the petroleum fields, where operations
have been resumed as a result Of the
agreement between large American
oil companies and the Mexican gov
eminent. Production taxes, which Gov
cred levies made on oil held In stor-
age by American companies In Mex
leo, were paid by a majority Of the
companies, according to an unofficial
statement to the newspaper HxcelGor.
The Indiana State Federation Of
Labor, after a hot dght, adopted a
resolution favoring revocation by con-
gress Of the charter of the American
Legion. The resolution charges the
legion is inimical to labor and was
organized by big business TO fight labor.
Decrease Of 20 per cent in wages
was found inconsistent with the de-
cline In living costs in a decision
handed down by the Maine state board
Of arbitration and conciliation In the
case Of cut made by the plumbers
association The board set 121a per
cent as equitable.
Members of the Chicago Carpenters
District council ratified their recent
decision to stand pat for $1,25 an
hour, their present wage. At the
same time they determined not to
enter into any negotiations with other

tion has been clarified.

building trades in Hamilton county,
Ohio, has been decided on by Rabbi
David Philipson, as umpire Of the Gin
cinnati wage board. The new scale
will go in effect November 8. The de-
cision generally follows Judge lands
plan, but is not binding on trades in
the arbitration until 1t is accepted also
by carpenters, glaZers, painters and
others not represented.
The Standard Manufacturing COM
pany Of Louisville, KY, began night
operation. Approximately 100 men
will be employed at once and the
number gradually increased to be-
tween $50 and 400. Increased business
and a desire to cooperate with the
to decrease unemployment
is given by the management as the
reason for additions to the force. The
Pittsburgh plant of the company has
recently started on full time.
A lockout of 1900 wokers by to-
bacco manufacturers was begun in
Germany. The employers informed
the workers that they have no COM
plant against labor, but they declared
he lockout as a protest against the
Taxation laws.
Five hundred persons were en-
)loyed in the plant of the Toledo CO.,
