Harvester Trust
Pays Big Profits

Chicago-It is in order to pass re- O.
lutions of sympathy for the Interna-
tional Harvester Company.
The occasion for sorrow is the
trusts announcement that last year
it's clear profit was only $4,149 900.
Large sums were stored away in
various funds, princely salaries were
paid officials and managers, interest
on bonds were met, but $4,140, 900
profit is not enough to meet interest
on common stock and stock dividends.
The common stock does not repre-
sent single dollar of investment and
the stock dividends were issued to con-
ceal the enormous profits in recent
years. In 1920 the clear profits were
$16,655,300.
Now the trust bemoans that profits
are not large enough to pay interest
on water and the profits of other
years.
Instead of giving farmers some of
the benefits of their profits through
lower prices the profits are hidden.

Many U. S. Farmers
May Move to Canada

Ottawa, Ontario-Canadian officials
expect preat migration of farmers
from the United States the coming
year. Government investigators re-
port that farm conditions in the
United States will force these farmers
to move. One of these investigators
says:
"Thirty-six per cent of the United
States farmers are tenant and the
price of land has reached from $500
to $500 an acre. Owners of these
high-priced lands must have large
financial returns per acre to pay for
their investment, but this is impos-
sihle for the tenants with wheat and
corn at their present low price.
Therefore, tenants have got to
move. There is no cheap farm land
or homestead proposition today in the
western states. | found 49 cars of
settlers goods ready to move over
the line. The United States railways
are making one-fare round-trip rates
to Canada for the first time in ten
years, which will help enormously in
bringing people to Canada who want
to investigate conditions"

Company "UniOn''
Out of Business

Bonners Ferry, Idaho-The Bon

fed employees that they may work 10
hours day for 1925 or remain on
the eight-hour day with a wage of
$3.50.
This concern has been paying SO
a day which its company "union,' .
known as the loyal legion of loggers
and lumbermen, agreed to. IL these
workers decide to hold their eight
hour day they must accept a wage
cut of 40 cents a day. AS they are
unorganized there is nothing to pre-
vent the company from later adding
the extra two hours at the $3.50 rate.
{ "The game now," say officers of
the Inter national Union oe Timber
Workers, "is to force down the wage
rate an1 to force up the hours ct
their leisure. Right down in their
hearts they are all for the ,-13-hour

Miners Don't Make
Living Expenses

Washington-In many coal mining
centers the cost of living is greater
than the miners earning capacity,
Commissioner of Labor Statistics
Stewart told the house labor COM
mittee.
The commissioners said that agents
OF his department obtained data from
25 families in a number of towns in
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and West Virginia. 1t was shown
that the average pay of the miner
was lower than the average cost of
living.
Nobody knows how many mines
there are" he said. "The number
reporting only touch the edge. There
are many snowbird mines producing
aboLt enough for local needs. and con-
ditions in such properties are not as
good, from the miners standpoint, as
in others"

GOVT SETTLES
u. S. TREASURY FOOTS BILL Fob
RAILROAD WORK
LOOting is Overlooked by Those Who
Learnedly Discuss "Wasteful-
ness of Government Control
of Railroads"

Washington - The interstate COM.
merce commission has upheld the or
ganized railroad shop employees claim
that railroads have mulcted the pub
lie of millions Of dollars contracting
their repair work for costs vastly in
excess of what the work could be
done for in the railroads shops.
This gouging was done during the
first six months following the return
of the roads to their owners. Under
the terms of the Cummins-Esch law
the railroads were guaranteed their
operating expenses by the govern
ment during this six-months' period.
The railroads entered into these con-
tracts and the government foots the
bill.
The commission finds that almost
road did when the government re-
tured its property was to contract
with private shops for repair work at
an excess cost of more than $3,000,-
900. 1t was shown that on one type
Of locomotive the Pennsylvania re-
pair cost in it's own shop was $9,45o,
as compared with $25,799 it paid to-
the Baldwin locomotive works. This
did not include the cost of 80 inspect
ors the road was permitted to place
in the Baldwin plant. The commits
sion says that if the officials of this
road made "a more thorough survey"
of their facilities the railroads shops
could do this work if there was "an
appropriate coordination of efforts"
This reflection on railroad manage
ment is followed by evidence that
raises the question of ordinary hon.
esty. 1t was shown that the Pennsyl-
vania's contract with the Baldwin
concern provided that in all cases of
error or defects in the work, thereby
necessitating that the work be done
the second time, the railroad would
pay for this extra work. In hundreds
of cases this work was done the Sec
ond time.
The Baldwin company was given
these contracts without competitive
bidding and under a system which,
Chairman McChord of the commission
said, "made it possible for the Bald
win company actually to profit by
negligent or inefficient work. The
more of such work that it did the
greater the amount of it's 80 per cent
for overhead and the greater the
amount Of it's Is per cent for profit"
In the case of the New York Central
railroad the commission reports that
repair costs for 108 locomotives in
four private repair shops averaged
$21 ,912.33. The corresponding cost of
similar repairs on 329 locomotives
in the company's shops averaged $5,-
927.45, or $15,98488 less than the
general average contract cost. On
this basis, the railroad paid an excess
of $1,726,367.04 to the contract shops
for repairing 108 locomotives.
This terrific gouging of The people
was viewed sympathetically by some
of the commissioners, who insisted
that the railroad officials should not
be condemend. This is Commissioner
Campbell's defense of the New York
Central:
"This contract was made at a time
when most everyone connected with
the operation of the railroad was act
ing under pressure, traffic was heavy
and heavier traffic was in prospect.
Naturally, there must have been more
or less nervous haste"

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of Farm

Carpenters Accept Reduction

East st. Louis-The Carpenters
union of this city, representing more
than 800 men, has signed an agree

scale of 81 an hour, which is reduc-

paid during the past year.
