Out-Of-WOr Statistics

Washington-The bureau of labor
statistics makes this report on en-
ployment:
Comparing the figures of Janu-
ary, 1922, with those of identical es-
tablishments for January, 1921, it ap-
pears that there were increases in the
number of persons employed in nine
industries and decreases in the num-
Der of persons employed in five indus
tries. The most important increases,
1855 per cent and 114.9 per cent ap-
pear in the automobile and the woolen
industries, respectively. Iron and
steel show a decrease of 21.5 per cent
and car building and repairing, a de-
crease of 16.1 per cent
"When compared with January,
1921, the amount of the pay rolls in
January, 1922, show increases in nine
industries and decreases in five indus
tries. Woolen shows an increase of
1868 per cent and hosiery and under
wear an increase of 91.6 per cent. Re-
spective percentage decreases of 55.1,
37.5 and 30.5 appear in iron and steel
car building and repairing, and bitum-
inous coal mining"
The bureaus figures are based on
reports from Representative estab-
lishments in 13 manufacturing indus
tries and in bituminous coal mining.

Building Prospects
Bright For Spring

Columbus, Ohio = State officials
who have been viewing the unemploy-
ment situation with more OF less
alarm see better times ahead with the
coming spring. "Ohio is going to have
the greatest residential building boom
in its history" according to John w.
Prugh, state superintendent of build
ing loan and savings associations. He
predicts the construction of at least
10000 homes during the next six
months which would give work to
thousands of persons. According to
Prugh it will cost approximately
S15O,OO0,00O to finance the building
program this spring of which amount
the building and loan associations may
be called upon to furnish about $751;
100000. at behooves Ohio commune
ties to get behind financial institutions
which cater to home financing and
give them practical support" said
Prugh. "The building, loan and saw
ings institutions can bring about a
period of greater prosperity if they
are given the savings of the public.
These institutions are absolutely
trustworthy, pay good rate of inter-
est and keep the money in home COM
munities."

Vicious Sales Tax
Opposed by Workers
(By Federated Press)

Washington = "Organized labor
stands 100 per cent for the soldiers
bonus, but is opposed to a sales tax
as a means of raising revenue for the
bonus, just as it is opposed to sales
tax to pay any debt contracted by
the government" said President
Gompers, in public statement.
Labor recognizes in the proposal
to attach the sales tax to- the SOL
diers' adjusted compensation bill a
subterfuge intended either to defeat
the bonus or to create a feeling of
the world war by placing the burden
upon those least able to bear it and
by permitting the escape Of those
who profteered so relentlessly dur
ing the period of the war and since
the war.
"The bonus should have the ap-
proval of congress, but to create a
sales tax would be to turn a measure
of justice into an imposition and an
injustice upon the whole people. The
position Of labor upon the sales tax
is stated officially in the following
resolution:
heSOlNcu, i Hal. Ine "a. L. VI l..
in convention assembled, declares
against the imposition of retail tax
on consumption, and demands that the
highest rate of taxation levied dur
ing the war upon incomes and excess
profits be retained until the full
money cost Of the war has been paid
Congress refused to adopt the
sales tax as part of the general
revenue provisions. That proposal
should not now be used to beclouC
the merits of a measure intended tC
do justice to those who patliotically
defended the country in it's hour OF
need"

Why Bosses Favor
Anti-UniOn Shop

Indianapolis-The reason why Ala
bama coal owners fought last year
for the anti-union shop is shown by
the following rates paid by the Ten
nessee coal, iron and railroad company
before the strike and now:
Picked mine coal, $1.05 per ton;
now, 72 cents.
Rockman, $5.16; now, 1888.
Rock helper, $4.02; now $2.84.
Truckmen, $5.16; now $3.68.
Machine mined coal, 80 cents; now,
So cents.
A committee representing Miners
union No. 3237, Wylam, Ala, writes to
the United Mine Workers Journal:
"All other classes of labor has suf-
fered the same reductions in and
around the mines, Notwithstanding the
fact that the coal owners promised
Governor Kilby that they would abide
by the scale Of wages that then eX-
listed until April /, 1922.
"Kilby used the militia and state
police to defeat us, and then when
our officials put the question in his
hands for him to settle, he ruled that
rome of our demands were just"

Labor PhOtOpIay
Soon to be Presented
(By Federated Press)

New York-The Jungle, photoplay
version of Upton Sinclair's great nov
ell which gave the public its first peep
behind the scenes in the great pack
ing houses, soon will be presented in
New York City and vicinity and in
northern New Jersey motion picture
houses. The Labor Film Service, Inc,
has completed arrangements with the
Elk Photo Play Co. for the distribu-
ton of the film in this section, and
the producers expect that within a
short time this gripping, dramatic ex-
pose of the conditions under which
the packing house employees work will
be on exhibition in theatres through
out the country.
The picture has been re-edited, re-
titled, and rearranged under the ex-
pert supervision and direction of men
who have been active in labor union
work and who are familiar with con-
ditions in the packing houses today.
1t is a relentless exposure of the eX-
ploitation and oppression to which
workers in general and immigrant
workers in particular, are subjected.
1t shows, incidentally, the use of
poisonous chemicals to preserve meats
and the unsanitary conditions under
which the work was done before Sin
clair turned the light of publicity on
the packing houses.
The leading roles are taken by two
of the most capable and best-known
actors in the screen world, George
Nash and Gail Kane, supported by a
splendid balanced cast. Some of the
characters are Lithunian immigrants
farming people in their own coun-
try-who are broken in the ruthless
machinery of the packing industry.

Reduced Freight
Rates Necessary

New York-Freight rates on food
products and other commodities must
be reduced before the cost of living
can be lowered, said J. w. Herschler,
president of the national wholesale
grocers' association. He cited rates
on sugar as an illustration of present
charges. The cost to ship sugar in
1914 from New York to points on the
Ohio river was 16 Ia cents, while the
present rate is so cents, or 200 per
cent increase in transportation
charges in car load lots from the re-
finer to the wholesaler.
1t was stated that nineteenth of the
food prolufts, exclusive of meat, ship
ped by rad, is transported in less than
car load quantities, and therefore
takes a higher rate.

EVERYBODY READS THE
LEAt Err ADS


Last Friday a small five line
notice, :.--.ouncing the candidacy
for sheriff of John A. Lawyer,
appeared in an inconspicuous
position on one of the pages of
the Leader. Saturday morning
Mr.. Lawyer stated that about
twenty-five of his friends had
called him up to wish him good
luck during the previous day,
stating they had read his an
nouncement in the Leader.
This helps to substantiate the
claim that the subscribers of no
paper in Newark read the ad-
vertisements as thoroughly and
carefully as do those of the
Newark Leader, who almost
without exception remember
their friends, the advertisers,
when making their purchases.

Episcopal Bishop
Opposes Dry Law

Chicago Bishop Thomas F. Caller,
president of the National Council of
the Episcopal church said in an adj
dress here last week that he believed
"the eighteenth amendment was mis-
take" He also said that he believed
in the modification of the Volstead
law.
81 am in favor of morality" he said
"and | personally observe the Vol
stead law, but l am opposed to putting
sumptuary laws Of so drastic a char
acter in the constitution. 1t partakes
of the old philosophy that the matter
is inherently evil"
