FILL COMMUNITY CHEST

"We want you to know" is the key
note of work done by the committees
in charge of the third Community
Chest collection, scheduled for Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Those five words express the ap-
peal this year. No need to heckle, no
need to plead, no need to beg for
chest funds from those who knew of
the helpful work done by the nine
agencies which gain all or part of
their support from the chest
However, it is difficult to inform
the public as to the worthy work car
ried on by some of the institutions
The more pitiable cases of charity are
best not told. Girls are saved by the
Training School for Girls, as an in
stance, and the very publicity which
might mean added contributions to the
chest would defeat the purpose of the
institution. 1t is mercy to draw veil
over some of the cases brought be-
fore the Associated Charities. Some
of the best work of the Boy Scouts,
the Y. M. C. A, Mercy hospital-of all
the nine institutions-is never brought
to light.
The aim, 1--WE want you to know
will be followed as far as possible
in the present collection. The work
done by the chest beneficiaries is city
wide, covering almost every phase OF
| activity. The citizen who has the
least doubt of the benefit derived from
the money expended through the chest
owes a debt to his fellow man, his
neighbor, his co-workers He owes
financial support, but he owes first 8
personal investigation. The head o.
any of the nine institutions will ex
plain the work in full To know is tx
be convinced.

RIGHT is MIGHT

Is there anything bright and cheer
full on the horizon anywhere in these
more or less lugubrious days? Yes,
one thing at least. The American
Federation of Labor, hammered day
and night ever since the signing of
the armistice, gnawed at by lunatics
and pounded by bourbons, has not
lost handful of members through
it all It's membership today is but
few thousands less than at the
height of industrial activity at the
end of the war The slight loss suf-
fered is due to unemployment, which
makes it impossible for workers to
pay union dues. Those who think
they are wiser than the American
Federation of Labor are respectfully
urged to view the situation. No Ia
Dor movement anywhere in the civil
lied world has been so mercilessly
fought No other labor movement to-
day stands so solid, and sane and
unmoved. No other labor movement
in the world could have lived through
the past three years in America and
be anything but shell today. The
American Federation of Labor is
right, it is sound, it is solid. II
sticks to sound principles. 1t sticks
to what American workers have in
their minds. 1t is close to the job
and it doesn't let itself get fooled by
peddlers of bla and bunk. You'll
have to go around more than couple
of blocks to find anything that can
equal the American Federation of La
Dor for fighting powers, staying

MODERN "AMERICAN PLAN"

Arthur Brisbane, the well known
editorial writer, says:
Another cut in wages for the rail-
road man will save forty-eight mil
lion dollars for railroad owners.
There are various ways of making
money. Henry Ford illustrates one
way. He raises wages and cuts the
price of his goods. The railroads,
out of date, badly managed, stupidity
competing, represent the other way
They raise the cost of tickets and
freight and cut down the wages.
This latest cut will take cents
an hour from the wages of 100000
men-nearly all common laborers." !"
If the men work nine hours, that
means 45 cents a day. It's small
sum to the man that lives on divi-
UpIlUS from tdilIOdQ SlUChS VI 1lCcl-
est on bonds. But it is large sum
for the woman that clothes and feeds
the family of the common laborer." !"
Forty-eight million dollars year
is the latest cut in wages. Four hun
dred million dollars year was the
last cut.
Intelligence could make the rail
roads profitable without any cuts.
But intelligence is the one thing the
railroad management of this country
hasn't got. The people of the coun-
try haven't even got the intelligence
to take the railroads over and run
them. Therefore, the four hundred
thousand common laborers" must re-
sign themselves to the cut of 5 cents
per hour, which is the modern Amer
ican plan"

WHAT HAVE THEY TO SAY?


President Harding, speaking in
New York, May "a, 1921, said:
"In our effort in establishing indus
trial justice we must see that the
wage Garner is placed in an economic
sound position. His lowest wage
must be enough for comfort, enough
to make his house a home, enough
to insure that the struggle for exist
ence shall not crowd out the things
truly worth living for.
"There must be provision for edu-
cation, for recreation, and margin
for savings.
"There must be such freedom of
action as will insure full play to the
individuals abilities"
Senator Cummins, of Iowa, princi-
pal author of the present transpor-
tation act, said before the senate
committee on interstate commerce on
| April II, 1922:
81 suppose those who framed the
transportation act never dreamed
that when the government undertook
to fix the wages of any man who was
| required to work would be less than
would be necessary to support him
and his family in reasonable comfort
Were these distinguished leaders of
the administration in earnest when
they made those statements?
If they were, what have they to
say concerning the recent wage deci-
sions of the United States railroad

BUT LOOK AT THE PRICE!

bO LOOh Al The PRICE!
Before the last election Charles P.
Taft, owner of the Times-Star, print
ed an affidavit in his paper, sworn
to by himself, "that Warren G. Har-
ding was a white man" Why was
that necessary? What did Taft
know of the real facts? Was he
competent to issue such a statement? :?
But be that as it may, he did issue
it, and someone saw that it was duly
copied whenever needed.
Harding was elected and in return
for the white mans certificate" given
to him by Chas. P. Taft, Harding
appointed William H. Taft chief jus
tice of the United States supreme
court. Taft had been a Judge before,
and the records show that the su-
preme court reversed his decisions
more times than any other Judge who
ever sat the same length of time on
that bench. Harding appointed Taft
after the people of this nation had
overwhelmingly repudiated him on
his own record as President He car
ried only the two smallest states in
the Union of forty-eight when he ask
ed for vote of confidence.
1t was out of Taft's mouth that
came the supreme courts decision in
favor of child labor, and the Coronado
coal case, making workers response
bic for all damages.
Chas. P. Taft has been paid for
his affidavit, but look at the price
