CHICAGO WORKERS
 VOTE ACCEPTANCE
 OF LANDIS' DECREE
Peace or War Is Now Put Up to So-Called Citizens Com
 mittee"

Chicago, Feb. I7.-War or peace in the building industry of this city de- pends on whether the citizens com mittee of bankers, stock brokers, and manufacturers insists upon the con tinuation of it's open-shop campaign.
 The wage question for a period ex- tending to June I, 1923, was practi- cally settled when Judge Landis, arbi- trator, announced his award Wednes- day. February I, and retired from the scene. Wages are to remain al their present level, except that in a few minor trades slight increases were granted, and the judge stated that other increases would have been given certain crafts if their unions had complied with the award of last Sept ember, running to May 3I of this year. The new award becomes op- erative June I, runs for one year. and applies to about 75,ooo workers in the industry.
 At a meeting of the Building February 3, 3I affiliated craft organ izations decided to accept the Landis award. The vote was practically unanimous in the affirmative" said Secretary J. J. Conroy. This means that all men who have been on strike will return to work imme ediately. The building trades have accepted the award in good faith, and peace will come in the industry if the contract ors play the game fair and the citi- zens' committee stops its open-shop campaign"
 The resolution of acceptance was recommended by President William A. Curran of the council. The mat ter of eliminating some 5000 non union men placed on jobs by the citizens committee during the past two months will be comparatively easy task, said one of the business agents. "The contractors do not want them, because they are incompetent, and it takes three such men to do the work of one experienced builder. We are asking for fair break from the public and a fair deal from the Chi cago newspapers, which we have not had at any time since this contro- versy started. So far as we are con- cerned, there will be no jurisdictional strikes nor discrimination of work during the long life of the Landis award"

MILITIA ARREST
 JUDGE IN RAID IN
 KENTUCKY STRIKE
Jurist Who Protested Military Bar barism Is Now Among
 Victims.
{ International News Service.)

w
 Newport Ky, Feb 17.-Newport was the scene of militarism today that outdid that of last Saturday when state troops on strike duty at Newport Rolling Mill marched through the city streets blocks away from the strike zone ordering peo- pie off the streets and beating up those who did not promptly obey orders. The feeling of resentment on the part of the people over these indignities is becoming more intensified every day soldiers re- main. Newport IS practically under mar tial law at the hands of the state troops without martial law being declared.
 Declaring that the easy acquisition of liquor in Newport was to blame III a large measure for disorders which have accompanied the strike, Colonel Denhart and the three-hundred state guardsmen under his command in company with state and federal prohibition agents tonight virtually took possession of Newport, city of approximately 3OOO0 inhabitants, ra1dlng saloons, stopping and searching automobiles on the streets and invading private homes whenever their search was based upon reliable information that liquor was to be found"
 Every person found in a saloon was detained until the search of the premises was completed. Many persons were es- corted to the military guard house at the Newport Rolling Mill to undergo examination before they were released
 By curious coincidence County Judge William C. Buten, who addressed let ter to Governor Morrow condenlning the military demonstration of last Saturday was one of those caught in the military

MINNESOTA HIGH COURT RULES AS
 IN FEUDAL DAYS
Prohibits Picketing and Boycott Silences Labor Paper and
 Has Merry Time.

Minneapolis, Feb. 1o-By a 3-to-2 vote the Minnesota state supreme court has upheld Judge Bardwelps in junction against workers picketing the Wonderland theater in this city, or even announcing in the Labor Re- view that the theater is unfair to or ganized labor.
 Because they refused to accept this denial of free speech and press, Lynn Thompson, Leslie Sinton and Dan Stevens, officers fthc central body, and K. D. Cramcr, editor of the La bor Review, were each fined SIPS, to be paid as damages 10 the theater owner, and an additional $Ioo to his attorney. The workers again refused to obey the court and served two months in jail, when they were re-

restricted to trade involving useful commodities"
 In his dissenting opinion, agreed to by Justice Italian, Judge Dibbell op- posed the majority opinion that labor Is a commodity and is therefore amenable to the state antitrust law.
 Judge Dibbel called attention to a former decision by the court in the case of the Duluth board of trade, which fixed charges for the service of the members of the board. The state supreme court, at that time, held that this was not violation of the anti trust law. The court said: Labor, whether physical, intellectual, or a combination of the two, is not by any fair rule of construction 'an article of trade, manufacture or use, or an article, commodity or utility which enters into the manufacture of any article of utility within the meaning of those words as used in the statute" |"
 Tt is going long way, so it seems to me- said Judge Dibbell, for equity to restrain the peaceful activ ities of labor or to supervise the con- duct of a trade paper in the midst of class struggle.'
 The decision means that injunc ton judges i'll this state may gag any pro- test of workers against wrongful con ditions.
 In the Granite City and Truax cases the, United States supreme court made a pretense of permitting picket ing and boycotting-if conducted in harmless manner.
 The Minnesota state supreme court wastes no time in assuring workers of rights, while taking these rights from them

drag net Judge Buten was taken to the military headquarters for an examin- ation and was released upon his own re- cOgnizance after being cited to appear before the federal commissioner to an- sWer to the charge of conspiracy to vio- late the liquor law" Judge Buten said that he entered the saloon to get a sig nature to paper involving a transaction with a building association for which he IS the attorney. He was sitting in a rear room where meals are served when the raldlng party entered.
 Newport like good many other cities in these United States is known as an "open town" but this fact has been known to the state and federal authorities for some time. It IS evident that the mili- tary authorities are trying to place the odiu1n on the striking mill workers for conditions that have absolutely no con- nection with the strike. The raid was for the double purpose of finding liquor and i'll hope of finding some of the gun men and thugs"
 Louis C. Dreiling, striker, was ar rested today on a warrant sworn to by Sawyer Smith, United States District Attorney, charging Dreiling with having 'consplred to intimidate and injure a citizen of the United States" The dis trlCt attorney SalQ that the charge was filed as a result of picketing by strike syrnpathizers near the home of John Siervelt an employe at the Newport .Rol- ling Mill. Dreiling, when arranged be- fore Commissioner Ohroetl1en in the Federal court at Covington today, en- tered a plea of not guilty and his pre- li1ninary hearing was set for next Tues day.
 It is said that similar warrants have been issued at the instance of the District Attorney for the Newport men who are said to have been identified with acts of sympathizers of the union mill workers.
 The military officers are stopping at nothing to break the strike.

leased pending appeal.
 The state supreme court upholds Judge Bardwells injunction except that portion which calls for damages. The gag on the Labor Review, the stoppage of picketing and the order to pay the attorney for the citizen 5 alliance are all sustained.
 The supreme court held that the in junction was justified by the state an ti-trust law and by the recent decis- ions of the United States supreme court i'll the Granite City (Ill) and Truax (Ariz.) cases.
 In defending it's attack on free press, the court said that statements by the Labor Review njured the plaintiffs business" and though the court stopped the publication of these statements "this did not deprive de fendants of the freedom of speech guaranteed by the constitution"
 Equally naive is the courts defn- ition of the term trade" which the United States supreme court has ruled does not include operating a theater. To overcome this handicap, and keep the case within the state antitrust law, the state supreme court says:
 The word trade is used in the statute in its broad sense and is not
