CHARITY balls come and charity

CHARITY balls come and charity
balls go, but the ball for the

Time was when there were three
benefit balls season--the Navy

the Children's Hospital ball. some

Of February--and when everybody
with any pretensions TO social

one.

halcyon days to q time when 1t

and when the ladies of the commit

with their own hands.
Now there are two or three balls
In each week during the "open sea
son" for benefits. and nobody can
possibly attempt to take 'em all in.
But there are stin scores OF i'm

miss the Children's Hospital ball
would be q dereliction In social duty,
and It is always one Of the most
successful events, financially AZ
well as socially. of the year.

DIRTY WORK

One would naturally suppose that
officers representing the great United
States of America could find sufficient
employment arresting law breakers
who transgressed by reason of their
own evil inclinations, without resort
ing to the low down dirty tactics of
employing Judases, still lower down
in the scale of decency, to act as stool
pigeons and induce honest men in
need of money to support themselves
and families to technically break the
law, in order that they, the aforesaid
"Big Ike" U. S. representatives, may
reap a small financial reward and be
advanced another step on what, in
their 2X4 minds, appears the road to
everlasting glory.
And yet, if the story given out by
one of our local daily papers is cor
rect, the stunt was actually pulled off
right here in Newark last week by
Revenue Officers Dyer and Moeller,
of Columbus, who hired couple of
"local men" to order a copper still
from a firm in the west end and pay
for it in naked money in order to
cinch the charges to be preferred later
This paper believes in law and
order and in enforcing the provisions
of the law to the letter; but it does
not believe in tempting man to vio-
late law in order to serve as an ex-
cuse for his arrest at later date.
1t believes that a sufficient number Of
law breakers already exist and that
the practice of offering inducements
for law violations should cease.

ARRESTED FOR TELLING TRUTH

Frank w. Snyder, editor of the
West Virginia Federationist, weekly
paper published in Charleston, w. Va,
was arrested Saturday, on charge
of treason and conspiracy, and con-
veyed to a Jail in Logan county by a
detachment of state troops.
The Federationist has ever been a
fearless champion of organized labor
and has been especially active since
the commencement Of the persecution
of the mine workers III the Matewan
district by mine owners and operators,
who have resorted to every known
means in their efforts to disrupt and
break up the unions. Gun men and
armed thugs have been employed, IN
offensive men and women shot down,
peaceful assemblages broken up, and
farlilles evicted from company owned
houses and forced to live in huts and
tents, exposed to the rigor of the
winter weather.
Frank w. Snyder, only last month,
collected upwards of $1,000 for the ben
eft of the starving miners and their
families, out of which three tons of
mixed nuts, two tons of candy and a
sufficient quantity of Norwaco waters
were bought to make happy Christ
mas for 5,619 destitute children, and
the remainder was spent for food and
clothing.
This is the man selected as sac
rifce by the mine owners, who no
doubt will be successful in securing
conviction and railroading him to
prison, as the indictment was secured
in Logan county, which is notoriously
prominent as a hot bed of union
hating, union busting heartless human
wolves who are ever seeking those
whom they may devour, and who hesi-
tate at nothing to accomplish their
hellish designs.

LABOR NOTES

The first labor organization to take
official action against the proposed ~
per cent reduction in wages OF st.
Louis building craftsmen as the nrst
means to lower building costs was the
CARPENTERS district council, which
made public announcement that it was
against the proposal. The district
council, composed Of delegates from
,13 local unions, represents about 4,OOO
men. OF this number, about 5000 re-
ceive $1.25 an hour and are eligible
TO vote in the referendum on the wage
scale taken among the various crafts.
A nationwide wage agreement mas
been reached by the international
Iron Molders' union and the Stove
Founders National Defense assoc1a-
tion It was announced at Information
al Union headquarters, Cincinnati.
President Joseph. Valentine of the
union said: "The agreement reached
calls for a 10 per cent reduction on
stove plates and per cent reduc-
tion on some classes Of furnace work,
this for piece work. For day work
tine men continue at the minimum
wage of Sc per day." The employers
had asked for a 20 per cent reduction
on stove plates and 80 per cent on fur
mace work.
A plan to use 1000 unemployed men
in Philadelphia as night watchmen,
their wages to be paid by contribu-
tions of Is cents weekly by each fam
lily in the territory they are to guard
has been suggested by Mayor Moore.
The plan, it is said, has the indorse-
ment of police department officials.
New York's unemployed numbered
100000 on December IS, against 342'-
ssO two months before. This report
was made by the local committee ap-
pointed in accordance with recon-
mendations at the unemployment con-
ference In Washington.

THE FARM is THE KEY

Richard Spillane, business editor of
the Philadelphia "Public Ledger, "
travelled 5000 miles and visited forty
centers Of industry and poulation in
the United States to discover the
actual state of business and banking.
He has written an intensely interest
ing summary of his important findings
for Forbes Magazine IN. W. Par
ticularly enlightening is his reference
to the farm. He says:
"Make no mistake about the farm.
1t is in bad way. The farmer had
a touch of high life in the war days
and made money as never before, but
he was preyed upon by sharpers to a
degree almost unbelievable. Middle
West bankers of prominence declare
the fy-by-night oil stock men, the
swindlers who had fake packing house
projects, and the others who had all
sorts Of games to lure the agriculturist
astray, robbed the men of the farms
Of 2,000,000,000. From their stories,
it was the greatest swindle this coun-
try ever knew. Today, by reason of
this loss and the drop in the value of
farm products, the farmer is literally
down to the earth. 1t will take surely
one good crop at good prices, and pos
sibly two or more, to get him up
again. Meanwhile, his buying power
is small. This means small sales to
the farm. AS the farm is the base of
all industry, the farm condition may
be taken as the weakest and gravest
spot in the whole structure to-day.
For that reason such efforts as are
being made for the aid of the fanaer
must be viewed in a generous way.
With betterment on the farm, the re-
Election will be seen in other branches.
And there should be betterment on
the farm"
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1922-01-20
THE PEACE DOLLAR

The new silver dollar, called the
"Peace Dollar" which was struck in
commemoration of the arms confer
ence at Washington, has been put into
circulation.
The directors of the mint should be
given silver medal for this appropri-
ate bit of symbolism. Here are good
Americans at their wits end to find
the right term for the meeting at
Washington. They soon decided it
was not "peace" conference. 1t is
just as clearly not a disarmament"
conference, and lately they have seen
that it is not even Limitation OF
armaments' conference. The director
of the mint comes to the rescue Of US
all. Why not call it the dollar con-
ference?
Even in its details the symbolism Of
the "Peace" dollar is fitting. The
siver in the coin is worth about 65
cents. And the dollar bears the legend
Liberty" and "In God We Trust"
