Millions Are Lost
 By Legalized Fraud

Washington, Oct. 27-The federal government is losing hundreds of mil lions of dollars of income taxes through "escape sluiceways" and legalized fraud, declared Congr essman Frear in a letter to Secretary of the Treasury Mellon.
 The lawmaker opposes the secrecy which protects these incomes, and di- rects attention to the supreme court decision which declared stock divi- dends nontaxable. One effect of this decision, said Mr. Frear, Twas shown when Standard Oil reported profits of over ST I,ooo, ,ooo ooo, aside from it's reg u1ar dividends, and the New Jersey company squeezed such enormous profits from the public that 400 per cent stock dividend was declared that is now held non-taxable The press also announces that United States steel has set aside $5,ooo,ooo sur dividend in addition to the regular and common stock.
 If memory serves me right, steel common stock was originally made up of wind and water. Other com panies in the aggregate have accufnu- lated billions of dollars in surplus profits extorted from the people profits that will also be certain to be distributed as stock dividends and thus escape federal taxation.
 ''Is 1t not significant in connection with the big business bloc methods that $500, 100000 in AZ per cent gov ernment bonds is oversubscribed three times by the same people who de clared to congress that repeal of perative before the wheels of indus the excess profits tax law was i'm try would be allowed to turn"
 MT. Frear said that the whole pro- gram of taxation revisoin and the ef- fort to get sales tax had been sup ported by the big business bloc that shouts wolf whenever it's purposes are disclosed" :"

 Astute lawyers are devising ways to re-establish the open-price idea in a form that will be acceptable to the supreme court. This may be possible if capitalists continue to concentrate their resources, for power is the one thing the supreme court is alert to.

DEMOCRA7 TIC CANDIDATE FORE
 SHERIFF Ne.0 HaUen County
STAR CHAMBER COURT GONE
 BUT THE PRINCIPLE PERSISTS

There was a time ax. the mother country when an institution known as the Court of Star Chamber func- tioned. One of it's peculiar and un- just features was that no juries list ened to the evidence and passed upon the facts. It was a court III which judges alone listened to evidence, and decided both questions of guilt and punishment. It did not take long for the British people to discover that the Court of Star Chamber was a judicial institution which could not be per mitted to continue if liberty and jus tice were to exist, and the court was abolished, because 1t not only had be- come standing menace to the peo- pie, but because of the power it wielded flor in addition to destroying the right of a trial by jury it cor rupted and destroyed government by law. Just as the jury had no place in the Court of Star Chamber, so it has no place in a court of equity, be- cause a court of equity Is not court of law; it is a court which exists solely for the purpose of protecting property rights when there is no ade- quate remedy at law.
 Our courts of equity, as many of them have functioned ln connection with industrial disputes, have done little less than supply employers with powerful weapons during an indus trial dispute Labor's hands are shackled, free speech in any form is denied, and strikers accused of con tempt of court are brought before a judge who sits as law maker, prosecu- tor, judge, and jury, and who without any provision of law, determines the form and the length of punishment If juries sat on contempt cases where the contempt was not one committed in the court room, the injunction would lose much of its value to the employer.
 I had an interesting example of the lawyers attitude towards the question of juries in contempt cases in Illinois. It was my privilege some time ago to

Unions Will Probe
 Labor Shortage Tale

Washington, Oct. PA. F. of L. Secretary Frank Morrison doubts the correctness of labor shortage stories now being circulated in the public press, and has asked the various trade union centers to send to A. F. of L. headquarters a short resume of labor conditions in their localities.
 The labor official expresses the opinion that the purpose of these stories is "propaganda to prepare the public mind for legislation that will repeal all restrictive clauses in the immigration law and make 1t possible for the large employing interests of this country to have three men clam bring at their factory gates for every job
 "Labor must counteract this prop aganda, so hostile to the welfare of the workers of this country,' said Secretary Morrison This can be done by the publication of facts re- gardnig the employment situation.
 "I would ask that as quickly as possible upon receipt of this letter, you advise this office how many un- employed workers are in your city at the present time If there is any craft or calling where there is scarcity of labor, also furnish that information. Furnish the very best information you can in regard to unemployment in your city, as this will materially assist in offsetting the propaganda that is gaining headway and creating the be- lief in the minds of the people that there is a scarcity of labor in this country, and that business has been hampered because of this scarcity"

DEFLATERS KEEP
 DOLLAR WAGE UP

New York, Oct 27.-Wall street continues to demand that wages oi workers be defated
 But the wages of the dollar con- tinue skyward.
 There is no wage dehation for stockhol ders-defation is for those who risk their lives and their health that the invested dollar may be re- warded-that it may secure a "fair return" As a result Wall street has just witnessed an orgy of melon cut tings and profit divisions that are un- equalled, and more are promised. The Standard Oil groups take the lead in dividing the spells, and the reason for 28-cent and 3o-cent gasoline Is shown m the 400 per cent stock dividend by Standard Oil of New Jersey. The capitalization of this company has been increased skiold
 Other corporations have announced stock dividends and Wall street is wild with joy-but not too wild, how ever, for the hard-boiled profit takers to always insist that labor must be defated."
 The reason for the melon cutting IS to escape a federal law which pro- vldes 25 per cent tax on undistri- buted earnings. Under the law these profits must be divided before March next or the government may seize one-quarter of them
 The melon cuttings IS expected to reach it's peak soon after the first of the year, and cease March I, the time limit fixed by law for the distribu- ton of 1921 profits.

address the state constitutional con vention upon the subject of injunc- tions. After I had presented my case I was subjected to many questions by some of the leading corporation at torneys, who were also delegates. One of them, seeking to demolish what ever good case I may have built up, finally asked me this question: eff you owned little home which represented almost lifeti1ne's savings, and If that home contained many little articles of great sentirnenta lvalue which could not be replaced, such as your mothers wedding rnig ,or the clothes or little shoes of some child that had come to bless your home for short while, and had then been called to the Great Beyond, and I was known as des- perate character and I had threatened to burn down your home and cause you irreparable damage, and a bene- hcent court fequity would issue an injunction restraining me from burn ing down your home, would you re- fuse to accept such an injunction, would you decline to accept the pro- lection it afforded?"
 While I endeavored to frame my reply, he kept insisting upon an answer, yes or mo- But I insisted that before giving him the direct answer, yes or no, that 1 must understand what he had in mind as involved in the question: I fnallly said to him, takin gthe case exactly as you have stated, and provided that my home was burned down, but that you were perfectly innocent, would you be will ing to waive your right to trial by jury because of the fact that an in junction had been issued restraining you from burning down my home? He did not reply. He could not reply. The reply to my question woudl have effectively destroyed the sophistical reasoning by which the injunction is sued in connection with an industrial dispute automatically denied those en- joined from the right of trial by jury.

MERGERS PROPOSED
 IN EVERY INDUSTRY

New York, Oct. 27.-Gigantic trusts continue to be formed, and the fed eral antitrust laws are given as much attention by Wall street as the blue laws of the 17th century, yet on the statute books of some eastern states.
 Mergers are everywhere. Every in dustry can tell the same story of pro- posa1s to control plants and then capitalize them at figures vastly in excess of their actual worth. The leading mergers are found in chem icals, sugar, cotton, copper, hardware, tobacco, coal and oil.
 The Anaconda Copper Company, the largest of it's kind in the country, has absorbed the American Brass Company the largest of its kind. Rail road and automobile mergers have just started.

COSTELLO TELLS
 MERIDEN FRIENDS
 WHERE HE STANDS

Harry Costello, who is seeking the nomination. as representative on the democratic ticket this year has con- flded to his friends that if he is elect ed on November 7 one of his first acts will be to introduce the old age pension bill which is being endorsed by great many of the prominent fraternal organizations throughout the state.
 MT. Costello is the representative of the Old Age Pension Club of the Royal Arcanum and not only will it give him very great pleasure to in troduce this bill into the legislature but he will also do everything in his power to influence other members of the House to vote for this progressive measure.
 The Lenox Athletic Club of New Haven who are booked to appear at Hanover Park Sunday afternoon, when they will line up against the fast Records of this town, have splendid reputation in New Haven, not only in the athletic field but in the social field as we'll
 The players on the team are all members of the club and all money which Is received by the team is turn ed over to the treasurer of the club as this is one of the very few clubs that are operated on a strictly amateur basis.
 The Lenox have been contenders for the championship in the junior division for the past few years and this year they have what is consider ed by their followers as the best team that ever represented the club so local patrons of the popular autumn sport can rest assured that they will see a row.
 The game will serve as a good test of the relative strength of the Ienox team and their old rivals, the Hill Tops, who held the Records to a tie score here few weeks ago.
