JUSTICE, NOT CHARITY

Never allow it to escape your at
tention that there is an ample amount
of food and of the other necessities
of life in this country for everybody
with the single exception that there
is a lack of sufficient housing facili-
ties.
The suffering of the five million
and more unemployed and their more
than twenty dependents is not caused
by famine. 1t is caused by an unjust
system Of distribution-a system that
gives too much to the few and too
little to the many. There is an abun-
dance for all if it were only distri-
buted in just manner.
Because the system of distribution
is faulty these five millions of men
are denied an opportunity to earn a
living in a self-respecting way. They
and their wives and children will
starve, or half starve, and great
many of them will exc out a miser-
able existence by accepting debasing
charity--receiving as a dole a small
part of what they should have had as
a right.
They should have justice. Then
they would not need charity.

"EASY MONEY"
WILL "HAND OUT" TO ROADS GO
TO STOCKHOLDERS?
Brotherhood Official Says the Five
Hundred Million Plum Will be
Divided Among Stockholders
as Preferred Dividends

Washington-The claim that a pro-
posed half-billion dollar "hand out" TO
the railroads will create employment
was exposed by w. S. Carter, presi-
dent Of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
FiIemen, at the presidents unemploy-
snent conference.
The brotherhood official said, in
effect, of you claim this money will
be used to purchase railroad equip
ment, and will not be divided among
stockholders as deferred dividends,
vote with me that the bill be indorsed
with that understanding"
Carters plan was rejected. because
a unanimous vote was necessary.
Advocates cf the "hand-out" are
ignoring this clear cut "show down.
and continue telling the public that if
congress votes this huge sum hund-
reds of thousands of workers will be
employed, as the railroads will i'm
mediately place their orders for
equipment.
President Carter showed that the
$5C0,000,00U as provided in the senate
bill (No. 2387) will in no way increase
D.
He showed that when railroads want
new cars or locomotives the manage
ment increases it's capital stock or
isues equipment bonds" for a num-
ber of years.
"It has never been the general
policy of railroads to use any money
affecting their capital to repair cars
and locomotives" he said. "The policy
has generally been that the earnings
from the car in transporting freight
should and will pay the expenses of
its upkeep.
"This has resulted in a practice,
generally adopted, to not assume the
burden cf expense necessary to re-
pair cars and locomotives beyond the
needs of the railroads.
"The management does not regard
it as dangerous situation to allow
a great accumulation of bad order
cars during a period of depression in
business. Tie policy has been that as
soon as business increases, thereby
increasing the earnings of the rail-
road, and thereby using the cars in
storage, the number of employees are
Immediately increased and the bad
order cars are placed IN serviceable
condition as rapidly as the business
of the railroad demands"
The brotherhood officials dwelt at
length on the financial methods of
railroads, to support his opinion that
if the railroads are voted this half
billion dollars they will probably
follow the past practice in the dis
bursement of money properly charge
able to capital account and pay de-
ferred interest, deferred dividends
and other deferred obligations"
To further support this opinion the
speaker quoted from letter addressed
by the president Of a certain railroad
to his stockholders regarding the COM
pany's settlement of. all claims against
the government for $3,000,000 cash.
The president said that the board of
directors had voted to declare divi-
dends out of the earnings of 1918 and
1919.
The records show that $1,774 36C
of the $3,0O0,000 payment has been
used for dividends.

What Newspaper Reporter Saw in West Virginia

their old homes in moutain villages or
on isolated hillsides where a ready
food supply was always available.
They travelled back and forth from
the mines on foot or on horseback.
There is a second class of West Vir-
ginia miners. These are later pro-
duct. They are the foreigners and
miners from other mining sections of
the country that inhabit the company
houses in the congested mining vii
lagos.
Now it is very easy to see that
tyranlical operator could very easily
domineer over this second class but
when he came to deal with the native
mountaineer, he would find a much
different task on his hands. Lockouts
and dismissalS meant nothing to the
mountaineer for he could not be
starved to death.
There are three reasons that make
armed conflicts in West Virginia pos
sihle,
These reasons are lack of incorpo-
rated communities, the nature of the
country, the character of the people.
Very few West Virginia communi-
ties are towns and cities in the sense
that we know them elsewhere. They
are simply small groups of people in
houses. Some of these towns are not
even named. Naturally they have no
public officials and no police.
To the West Virginians the only
embodiment Of authority is a sheriff
possibly fifty miles away and the
sheriff may be in the pay of the
operators. So the West Virginian,
thus driven, quite naturally and quite
logically takes the law into his own
hands.
The lay of the land in West Vir-
ginia is admirably suited to sniping,
and ambushes, thing which has
made the operations all the easier.

DISARMAMENT
PEOPLE AROUSED AGAINST EX-
CESSIVE TAXATION
Maturing Plans for the Armistice Day
Demonstration Indicate Nation
Wide Protest Against Taxa
tiOn for Future Wars

Washington-Plans for Armistice
day demonstrations in support of the
international movement toward dis
armament are maturing rapidly
throughout the country.
Practically every large city has al
ready arranged for a mass meeting
or a parade Or both, and from scores
Of the smaller cities reports are daily
coming to A. F. of L. headquarters
showing that the nation is solidly COM
mitted to the principle of disarmament
by international agreement
Reports from the following cities
indicate the extent of Armistice day
demonstrations in every section of the
country:
Baltimore-Elaborate plans are un-
der way for monster mass meeting
in one of the largest halls in the east
The labor movement has enlisted the
cooperation of IA civic organizations.
Philadelphia-La initiated Ar
mistice day demonstration. Meeting
of representatives of labor and II
civic organizations held in mayors
office. Arrangements made for mass
meeting and 81 500 to defray expenses
was quickly subscribed.
Harrisburg, Pa. = Central labor
union appointed committee to inter-
est other citizens in monster mass
meeting.
Cleveland-Federat of labor's ac-
tivity for Armistice day demonstra-
tion has interested citizens generally.
Invitations forwarded to 80 civic or
CARNATIONS. Keith's theater offered
free of charge to the labor movement
and cooperating bodies.
The above reports are indicative Of
the widespread demand by the people
for relief from military taxation, and
for the establishment of an era of
construction and peace. A tremendous
amount of literature has been distri-
buted to the trade unions and other
organizations on the cost and waste
of maintaining gigantic military es-
tablishments. For the first time, the
people have been awakened to this
drain on their sustenance.
The figures show that of every
dollar appropriated by congress, 68
cents is used to pay the cost of past
wars; 25 cents to provide for future
wars; cents for civil departments;
cents for public works, and but
cent for education and science.
These figures speak for themselves.
They are the reason for the present
nationwide demonstration by citizens
for reduction of disarmament.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1921-10-28

The following story, appearing II
1.-The American Federationist, was
written by a newspaper man who
visited West Virginia during the
"march of the miners" and who saw
things which the daily papers fine
"difficult" to print. He is not union
man, and in the past has frequently
criticised the trades union movement
His statements are, therefore, not in
fuenced by personal feelings.
The whole issue in the march OF
five thousand Kanawha county miners
to a point on the border of Logan
county was unionism pure and simple
Kanawha county, for more than
twenty years, has been stronghold
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea. Logan county, on the other hand
has been equally strong in it's opposi-
ton to unionism. Ever since the
Kanawha field was organized, bands
of miners from Kanawha county from
time to time have entered Logan
county with a view to organizing
Logan county miners. They came un-
armed and attempted to organize
peaceably.
1t is doubtful, however, if any or
ganizer ever succeeded in opening his
mouth within the borders of Logan
county. Time and time again organ
izers were sent to their homes or to
the hospital with their heads in band
ages. AS soon as they left trains at
~. I ~
beaten by strong-arm men said to
have been in the employ of the oper-
ators. The union miners say these
strong-arm men were Baldwin -Felts
detectives.
When the miners found that they
could not enter Logan county peace
ably and unarmed, they decided that
they would gain entrance by force.
Five thousand miners assembled un-
der arms at Marmet in Kanawha
county a few weeks ago. They an
nounced that thew were going to
Mingo county but their purpose in
going there was not quite clear. 1t
is very probable that they had no
other intention than to enter Logan
county.
The miners passed through Boone
county or their way to Logan. They
did not tear up the countryside; they
did not rob stores; they did not burn
dwellings,; as some reports have in
dicated. They passed through Boone
county in an entirely peaceable man
ner. But when they reached the
border of Logan county, trouble de-
veloped.
The non-union Logan county oper-
ators saw breakers ahead if they per-
mitted five thousand union men to
come within their sacred precincts, so
the operators set up loud howl to
the effect that the homes of Logan
county people would have to be pro-
tected against band of marauding
anarchists and insurrectionists."
With this war-cry, they assembled
enough men to hold the miners at bay
until the federal troops arrived.
Now the issues on both sides Of this
armed conflict were clouded in state
ments issued by leaders of both sides.
But the only real issue was "shall
Logan county be union or non-union"?
X
The hand of the operator in West
Virginia government is very easily
seen by any observer.
