Any wage reduction cuts of buying power and 50
reduces the return to capital.
But to maintain such wage, production must
warrant it. Only production pays wage which
cannot come from nothing. The Herald is a
thorough believer in organized labor and in col
leetive bargaining. 1t hurts US to note a seeming
lack of craftsmanship on the part of labor leaders
which in this period of depression is handing over
to their opponents. who would break down labor
organization, advantage they could not possibly
win of themselves. This advantage rests largely in
the truth of the conclusion of this labor statement
as based upon false premise, or in fact, upon no
real premise.

Helen Barent, Is, of Pitts
burgh. Brings Handsome
Profit to Greek Purchaser.

PITTSBURGH, July 9.-One of
the most remarkable stories of bar
tering in human chattels under the
very noses of the police was told in
morals court here yesterday by Helen
Barent, a pretty sixteen-year-old
girl, of Natrona, who declared that
she had been kept prisoner in the
home of Angelic Alexew and his
wife, Gladys Alexew, at Northside,
for four months, and while living
there that she had been auctioned off
to Gust Calos, a Greek, who paid
$500 for her.
RE-sOLD FOR PROFIT.
After marrying Calos. under a
threat of death IL she refused, she
said she was again put on the block
and for a bid of $4,000 was allotted
to a Johnstown merchant who was
about to close the bargain with the
Alexews. when the girl escaped, made
her way to the Northside police sta

Miss Barent told Magistrate Rich
ards that she was lured to the Alexew
home several months ago under the
promise of employment there and i'm
prisoned.
She declared she had made repeated
efforts to escape, but on each occa-
sion was captured and locked up in
her room.
Mrs. Alexew threatened to shoot
me and throw acid in my face II I
escaped" the girl said. II was told
that she engaged a man to take me
to secluded section of woods in the
outskirts of the city and murder me-"
Under threat of death made by the
Alexew woman, she said, she married
Calos under the name of GeneVieve
Miller on April 20. The couple were
married in the Allegheny county
courthouse. The Alexew woman at
the time accompanied Miss Barent
and claimed that she was her sist er.
