in just an old pair Of trousers or a

Baby Fox Ne,CeSt Pet;
Society Dogs Jealous

LAKE PLACID. N. Y, July
l3.-Baby silver foxes, running
in value from $500 10 $500, have
won favor as pets among women
members Of the summer colony
here, who lead them about on
leash, to the discomfort Of pedi-
greed pups brought from the
cities. The little animals make
acceptable pets and the high
values add 10 their desirability.
They are obtained from the three
silver fox farms in the vicinity Of

The craze started when Miss

"The unsatisfactory situation in

that the oil trade IN this region is
practically monopolized BY Standard
Oh interests The producer Of crude

line are both 40 the mercy u the

WIS perfected in 1920 and 1921, when
the Standard oil Company llndiana)

No Competition In Country
The conditions in other sections Of
the country are not radically different
from those IN the Rocky Mountain
region. To-day the entire country ia
divided into eleven Standard gasoline
marketing territories In which a Stand
ard marketing company is the dominat-
ing factor and in which there is no real

is possible under tho terms Of the
Standard oil dissolution decree, BY
which the different Standard com.

but there is. as is generally known, an
interlocking stock ownership IN the
different organizations which has per-
petuated the very monopolistic control

"Thc commission is OF the opinion
that this situation cannot be ofeetu-
ally remedied By existing laws and
that adequate relief can only be Sc
cured through additional legislation.

REDUCING WAGES is
BAD FOR BUSINESS,
SAYS COLUMBIA MAN

Professor Edmund r. A. Seligman
professor of economics and finance
at Columbia University, told the
members of the New York Credit
Mems Association at their recent BAN
quet that those business men who are
going on the theory that wage reduc-
tons are necessary are making "a
big mistake, because a reduction OF
wages means a reduction of the buy
ing power of the nation"
Additional significance is given
Prof. Seligman's statements by the
fact that he has always been regarded
as one of the political economists OF
Big Business.
The professor tossed another bomb
shell when he declared that the banks
of this country were carrying ian
enormous amount of frozen credits.
This was flat contradiction of the
statements issued by the officials of
the Federal Reserve Board. By
frozen credits" Prof. Seligman
meant loans on which the banks
could not realize.
Following Prof. Seligman's speech
I. Frank Manville, chief executive of
the worlds greatest corporation de-
voted to the mining and preparation
of asbestos, made public announce
ment of a decision he had made in
relation to his employees. Mr.. Man
vile stated that last fall he had been
engaged in study of plans to bring
about decreased cost of production,
and had come to the conclusion that
the best method of increasing eco
Monies and lowering costs would be
to increase wages.
Commenting on Mr.. Manville's
statement, the Wall Street Journal
says:
president Manville therefore has
established new and higher standards
for salaries and wages, and also has
taken on a considerable number of
men whom he had been compelled by
business depression to lay off. AL
ready the results justify his shilos-
ophy."

LABOR UNIONS
FACING MOST
SERIOUS TEST
"a. F. of l.. News Serv;ce)


Chicago.-"In the present storm of
industrial unrest-and which the en-
ployers would exploit entirely to their
own benefit and advantage-it be-
hooveS every one of us to be more
than ever on our guard" says the
Bakers Journal.
"All labor organizations today are
facing the most serious test in their
entire history. And to those who are
entrusted with the responsibilities of
guiding these organizations safely
through the present storm and stress
period falls the unenviable lot to 'ap-
ply the brakes in order to prevent
hasty and rash action, which, in its
ultimate consequences, will only bring
about that at which the employers
are aiming.
Times will not always remain as
they are today. Sunshine has invar-
iably followed even the worst of rain
storms and the present industrial de-
preston will soon again make room
for better and more flourishing-and
above all-moer advantageous condi-
tons.
That in spite of this reactionary
and dertsructive campaign we have
managed to hold our own in maintain
ing our organization is, indeed, a re-
markable and wonderful progress in
itself, which ought to be appreciated
by every member and make us the
more determined in its defense"

THE FIGHT FOR LIBERTY
By JOHN H. WALKER

History is repeating itself. The
struggle for the maintenance and adj
vancement of human liberty is again
conferred at two historical points, the
states of Kansas and West Virginia,
where in the days of negro slavery
grim old John Brown carried on his
agitation for freedom.
The fight now being waged by the
miners of Kansas against the indus
trial slave law of that state and the
struggle of the minters in West Vir-
ginia for the freedom of the workers
of that state, with their leaders un-
der indictment in the very court be-
fore which John Brown was tried,
ought to be sufficient to convince ev-
eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty"
! hope every trade union in Illinois
will give most earnest consideration
to the appeal for aid which the min
ers are asking.

LAWS ARE LESSON

New York.-If labor is slow and
Ineffective, why this country ?wide
cry for cant strike" laws, asks JUS
tice, official magazine of the Inter
national Ladies Garment Workers
union.
1.-THE growth of the labor movement
is disturbing the peace of chambers
Of commerce." says this labor paper.
while we believe that the scheme of
prohibiting strikes will give a pow
erful impetus to the labor movement,
we point out to those of our readers
labor movement is hopelessly slow
and ineffective, that our rulers and
masters disagree with them entirely.
"The masters consider our labor
movement as the onl ygreat menace
to their continued dominion, and
that explains the meaning of their
newest plot to destroy the labor
movement by legislation. We are
convinced that this attempt will be a
lesson on the need of greater unity
and loyalty to a number of our work
ers and that it will drive out their
pessimism.
"Henceforth the workers must for
get all their imaginary differences
and line ptheir forces against the
dark powers which threaten the life
Of the labor movement.
"But should all these means of pro-
test fail and labor serfdom be made
part of our law books, we should not
despair of the character and aspira-
tons of our labor movement. The
modern worker can no longer be con-
verted into a slave, and if he decides
to quit work, quit he will, legally il
possible, illegally if necessary"

JUDGE GARY
Is FRANKLY
AUTOCRATIC
IA. F of l. News Service

Lafayette, Ind.-Judge Gary is
cynically Indifferent to criticism, says
Painter and Decorator, official maya
, zine of the Brotherhood of Painters.
"While he advocates the American
plan he does not hide behind the
fog; he fights in the open. He holds
that the wage Garner should have no
say as to what wages or hours shall
be or as to the conditions under which
he shall work. Other unfair employ
ers cherish the same opinions, but
lack the courage to express them.
The judge, brutality frank, impatient
of camouflage, lays his cards on the
table. Speaking of the stockholders
of the United States Steel Corpora
ton he states clearly and fore fully,
without hesitation or reserve, Ms con-
cspiton of the relations that should
exist between capitalist and worker.
He says:
"Their capital permits the exist
ence, the activities and the success
of the corporation. They properly
may and ultimately will dictate the
personnel, the governing rules, the
policies, sales and purchases, extern
sions and Improvements, rates OF
compensation to employees
terms and conditions of employment
and all other matters pertaining to
the properties and business and man.
agement of the corporation. They
1.-THE stockholders) are entitled, not
only to fair and reasonable return
on their investment, but to all the net
proceeds of the business
"The judge maintains that the re-
turns from industry belong to those
who furnish the capital, that the
worker is only entitled to a wage to
be dictated by the employer, that he
has no right to share in management
or ownership, nor even to voice in
determining the wages he shall re-
ceive or the conditions under which
he shall live and labor.
at is well that the public should
know, as organized labor knows, that
the American plan'-the anti-union
shop-stands for autocracy in indus
try, a dictatorship over the lives of
men, women and children as absolute
as that of the southern slave holder
over the life of his chattel slave, and
with denial Of legal or moral respon-
sibility for the consequences"
