Without control, every man and every leader will
90 wrong. Without control, corruption is bound to
creep into the organization. Without control there
VIII never be an organization worthy of the name.
Without control, the labor movement is DOOMED!
We must build a rank and file movement right
down in the Shops where every delegate elected to
represent the shop is under DIRECT control of the
Rorkers in the shop
ALI the officials, all the higher bodies of dele
gates any worker elected to any committee is
directly responsible to the workers, who may re-
move them, just as they have elected them. They
must take their instructions from then-they must
report everything to them. This provides perfect
protection
Furthermore this is an organization form that
works on the spot safeguarding the worker where
he needs protection the shop at his work. This
is an organization that grows out of the very life

future It is the basis of control of production by
the worker It is the militant form of organization
that at last serves the purpose for which unions
were founded. 1t is the only hope of the working
class in the struggle with the BOSSES
Graft in the A. F. of L. will have done one
thing: it will rid us of our leaders" It puts up
for discussion again the question of union organi
zation, which we will answer. Let the bosses smash
our unions-out Of them will spring more mill
tant, challenging type that will serve us better
Let the bosses expose the grafters in our ranks
let them expose our '1eaders" for what they are!
In appreciation, we convert our unions into organ-
cations which will put an end to the system and to
the graft and bribery which are part of the system
Leaders of the A. F. Of L., what you could not do
for us in honesty, you have accomplished for us by
graft. We are indeed thankful to you

When you are out Of job

And HUNGRY,
Say to yourself: "There isn't
ANYONE to blame for thisl
n wasn't the spite
OF the BOSS
That threw me out!
n wasn't the Associated Industries

But It was merely this:
i and my fellow-workers
Worked HARD,
And had good machinery
To work with,
And we produced
50 MUCH goods
That we couldn't USE itl
Oh, no, THAT isn't true;
OF course we could USE 1t
II we had It,
But they never gave us

To buy back what wo made.
WE only got a part
OF the values we created,

For making THINGS
When all the things are made
That can be sold,
The MEN are told;
"You are not WANTED now."
Maybe their wives want them
And their children want them
And their friends want them,
But the THINGS
Don't want them,

And SO we wait and hunger

And so we shiver with cold

We made too much warm clothing;
And because we might not keep

Officials Endeavoring to Locate
Cause for Decreased Pres
sure in Main

Officials connected with the board OF
water commissioners have been wor-
ried for several days because of an
apparent failure Of the water system
to keep up with the demands upon 1t.
A thorough investigation has so far
failed to reveal the cause OF the diff
Guilty. With the continued dry weath-
er the springs are not discharging
the usual amount of water but 80 far
as the superintendent has been able to
discover the pressure on the main to
the reservoir has not decreased.
Conditions have not improved dur
ing the last "a hours and today
thorough investigation is being made.
Whatever the result it Is evident that
the residents Of Bennington must ex-
ercise more care in the use of water.
There is. and has been water enough
for legitimate purposes but it is ap-
parently almost impossible to impress
upon the people the fact that the
water must not be wasted Just at
the present time the entire community
Is in danger of serious loss in the
event of fire in the thickly settled Sec
tion, contingency that ought to be
thoughtful consideration, To disre-
gard the warning, than which there
could be nothing palmer will be a re-
hection upon the intelligence Of Ben
nington.

Emery B. McNoldy of Altoona, Pa.
ecently started on fishing trip with
We friends in Maxwell touring car.
Their road took them over the noun
aims of Huntingdon County, Pa,
ong haul of ten miles to the top.
At the top they met an old mountain
,er who stated that he had lived there
TX years and had never seen an auto
Mobile go over that road.
The fact that the good Maxwell
oade the climb with six passengers
vas almost beyond comprehension for
lim.
So steep was the pitch of the road
hat secord gear was used as brake
,oing down
Mr.. McNoldy states that the good
Maxwell covered the entire trip Oh

water and little less than five gal

Chicago, Oct. 27 (By the Associated
Pressl--Noon passed today with the
big five union Representatives in d
long executive conference on the pos
sibiiities Of a strike settlement Ben

before tie conference and presented
what he described as a vague possibil
ity Tor settlement.
Meanwhile the labor board is mark

this afternoon with the question whet.
her to issue an order forbiddng the
strike or an attempted court action
amcng the possibilities for considera-
ton.
MIR. Hooper left the conference OF
union representatives shortly after
noon. He said that the strike had
not been settled yet and that a settle
ment could hardly be expected while
he was at the meeting The union
leaders adjourned their meeting short
ly after Mr.. Hooper left. 1t was an
nounced that the five organizations
would meet separately at l o'clock
and jointly at 3 o'clock.
Yesterday it was understood that
the following proposal would be made
to the unions:
That the unions suspend or call off
the strike ordered for next Sunday,
and based on the wage cut made last
July. pending decisions by the board
on further wage cuts or on any re-
vision OF rules which the employees
fear the roads will ask The roads
have already announced Their inten.
tion of seeking 10 per cent. wage
cut for the train service men in ad-
dition to the ~ per cent. slash Of last
July. Many roads have indicated y
desire to abrogate time and half
for overtime also.
Throughout the hearing yesterday
the union leaders insisted fear OF
changes In rules and fear of further
wage reductions had influenced their
men in voting to strike. The board
is understood to be prepared to urge
that this fear of something which may
happen In the future Is not sufficient
grounds tor strike, and that the
men cannot lose anything by waiting
for those decisions TO be rendered.

CROSS RAILROAD
ON SECOND Gear
Some Good Hints for Driver to
Follow When Engine Stalls
as Train Approaches.
OPEN THROTTLE GRADUALLY
II Accelerator Pedal Is Pressed Toe
Quickly Engine Sometimes Stalls
Operator Should Keep His
Presence of Mind.

1t is well to give the motorist &
few words Of advice on subjeci
usually disregarded-that Of crossing
railroads, writes William H. Stewart
Jr., in an exchange.
The all too usual method Of cross
ing tracks is to drive on high gear
;hrottled down. This requires Ger
tain amount of gas, and IL the amouni
is reduced too much the engine viii
stall. BY shifting into second speed
all such danger Is overcome. Their
the engine is turning faster and ii Is
not so easy to stall. Furthermore,
the car may be driven across the
tracks at approximately the same
speed. The impression prevails thai
the car may be speeded up more
readily in high gear in the event of n
train approaching, but the distance +
short and full throttle opening OF
second speed will send the car for
ward with greater certainty.
This brings up matter of i'm
portance, that Of opening the throttle
too suddenly. If the accelerator pedal
Is pressed too quickly the engine some
times stalls. This is because the all
valve yields readily to the increased
suction, giving a sudden rush of all
before the spray nozzle can respond
with enough gasoline. Whether the
throttle Is opened by hand or foot
the driver should open it gradually
enough to give the engine time to re
spond. No matter how great the dan.
ger may be, the throttle must be
opened gradually This does moi
mean TO hesitate, but at speed which
will not cause the engine to choke be
fore acceleratlng.
Dangerous Experience.
Stalling the engine with a train ap
preaching at high speed is dangerous
experience to say the least. There is
no time to start the engine, but the
operator who keeps his presence OF
mind will use the starter to pull out
of danger. BY shifting into low speed
and pressing the starter pedal the car
is made TO move forward slowly.
Keeping this fact in mind, driver
may save his own life and the lives
Of those with him.

WATER FOR COOLING SYSTEM

Not all car owners know that pure

used In the cooling system. This is be-
cause II Is free from mineral sub
stances which are present in ordinary
water and which are deposited on the
metal walls Of the radiator, piping,

Clean Breaker Points.

While the magnetic only needs two
drops Of oil In each bearing every

the distributor cover once a month
and wipe out with cloth dipped in
gasoline. At the same time pass
piece Of double-ought sand-paper be-
tween the breaker points TO remove
any corrosion that may be forming.
This will put off magnetic troubles
