GENERAL STRIKE NEWS

WANT SCABS AND SCAB
PROTECTORS

Chicago-"Liberal bonus, free board,
free lodging, free transportation, no
fees,' is the inducement offered to
railroad strike breakers at 174 West
Randolph street, temporary employ
ment agency. This agency is recruit
ing principally for the Chicago &.
Alton railroad, which has had trouble
keeping men at its Bloomington shops
and elsewhere. A large sign in the
window reads Guards Wanted.
State troops called out to protect
strike breakers at Bloomington have
been replaced by other units, osten-
sibly because the training period was
at hand of the troops to be withdrawn.
A more likely reason for the with
drawal was given by one of the
troopers who said that i'll feeling be-
tween soldiers and scabs was all
primed for an outbreak when the
change was ordered. Moonshine pro-
vided for the strike breakers and
shared by some of the troopers in
creased the tension.
Efforts to end the strike of the 400,-
900 shopmen and their allies made
little progress. The decentralization of
the railroads continued, punctuated
by Cancelled and delaying trains, dirty
passenger coaches and embargoes on
freight.
Company unions are being formed
on some eastern roads, L. F. Loree,
head of the eastern executives, an
nounced, following the invitation of
the rail labor board to strike breakers
to organize and be recognized by the
board. Loree's claim that eastern
shops are manned fully 60 per cent
was dismissed as ridiculous by strike
headquarters.

instituted on many lines. In North

NEWARK, OHIO, FRIDAY. JULY 2s, 1922
QUIT HIS JOB
PASTOR RESIGNS TO DEFEND
COMMON PEOPLE
Demanded Gospel Based On Golden
Rule Refused Which Didn't Suit
Church Bosses

When the Rev. J. O. Johnston, pas
tor of the First Baptist chuch Of
Little Rock, Ark, recently took the
side of the workers in an "open shop"
contest in that city, he encountered
hitter opposition from a prominent
deacon who was hacked by the bust
ness men of the congregation and who
demanded gospel based not on the
golden rule. Rev. Johnston couldn't
abide by that decision and resigned
his pastorate, only to form another
church for the working class.
In a recent se"Iaon, the pastor re-
buked church members who seek to
bar the worker and his problems out
of religious discussion. There is a
class of people who say to ,,t;ae the
or labor into your pulpit If the la
Dor questionssis ever settled in this
world in the tight way it is going to
be settled by the religion of Jesus
Christ" states Rev. Johnston. This
preacher firmly believes if the Master
were to come on earth today He would
not be in favor of the "open shoppers"
Rev. Johnston said thai great harm
is being done organized labor through
propaganda "often presented through
newspapers Of our country. lie says
the workers are on trial and anyoLe
will be unwise if they furnish any
mata 'ial for these assaults.
1t is a shame that America has too
n:ny spineless pastors who will
change their ideals to the jingle Of
coin of their "big business" congre--
cations, little caring what becomes of
the working leaven in the great mass
of humanity. The money kings are
domineering in ther transactions and
carry their antagonism to the work
ing class into the churches. st. Paul
has it's coterie Of "open shop" deacons
and churchmen. City pastors draw
salaries in the five thousand dollar
circle with never a word for the
worker who ekes out miserable
existence on meager one-fourth OF
that fat amount.

Making Merchants Sell

Topeka, Kansas-Governor Aliens
"can't-strike" law is being pushed to
its logical conclusion, and is now used
against merchants who refuse to sell

It's up to the citizens of Newark to
find some way of stopping this trans
