ANTI-VIVIsECTI0N FORCES
PUSH AMENDMENT FIGHT

American anti-vivisection forces
have announced the reinforcing OF
their cause. aimed at adoption OF
laws abolishing the practice. DR..
Walter r. Hadwen, head OF the Brit
ish Union for the Abolition of Vivi-
section, has been engaged and is
making a speaking tour of the coun-
try. opposing Vivisection.
DR.. Hadwen opened q tour OF the
western states last month In chi
cago. Minneapolis. st. Paul and 9TH
er cities. going then to California,
where he will aid the campaign for
the passage of an anti-vivisection
amendment to the state constitution.
Sentiment is strong in California for
such a measure, according to officials
of anti-vivisection societies. despite
the defeat of a similar bill two years
ago. After a months work in Cali
fornia DIR. Hadwen VIII visit eastern
cities.
Advocates of the practice who be-
lieve in its value to the human race
and to the medical sciences, did not
discuss the question publicly with
him, 1t was said, when he visited this
country several years ago. He is
making the present visit in answer
to those proponents of Vivisection
who challenged his right to speak
for opponents
The doctor was formerly a believ-
er in viviSection, it was said, as well
as vaccination and incubation. DR..
Hadwen claims that IS per cent of
English children are unvaccinated
and attributes to that fact the low

HIGHEST COURT RULINGS

HIGHEST COURT RULINGS
U. S. Supreme Tribunal Refuses to
Reopen Number of Controversies,
Advances Others.

The Supreme Court Of the United
States cleared its docket yesterday of
all motions for rehearings, which
had accumulated during the summer
recess. denying rehearings in such
important cases as the Southern Pa
cific, the Coronado coal, the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation. base bali
and Laramie river irrigation project
cases.
The court advanced for hearing the
Pennsylvania anthracite and the
Minnesota iron tax cases, and issued
orders in connection with number
OF other cases.
Affects Labor Unions.
The Coronado case resulted in the
Supreme Court declaring that labor
unions were suable. and were liable
antitrust laws. In applying the evil
dence in the case. however, the Su-
preme Court reversed the lower fed
eral courts. and held that the United
Mine Workers of America, District
No. 81. the labor leaders and others
involved in the strike which resulted
in the destruction of property, were
not liable for treble damages under
the Sherman law, because not actu-
ated by an intent to restrain or
monopolize interstate commerce. The
coal companies sought unsuccess-
fully to have that feature of the
decision reviewed, contendine that
the prime object of the strike was
to prevent the interstate shipment of
coal.
Petitions For and Against Rulings.
After the decision of the court last
June ordering the Southern Pacific
Company to divorce itself from own
ership or control over the Central
Pacific railroad, a number of petit
tions were presented to Congress
from commercial and other organiza-
tions discussing the probable effect
of the decision. Some urged and 9TH
ers opposed it's enforcement. but the
Supreme Court in refusing to reopen
the case brought the protracted liti-
cation to it's last stages. and a man
date will now issue under which the
United States district court for Utah
will proceed to give effect to the de-
cision.
The government was particularly
urgent for a rehearing in the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation cases, in
which the court held that the cor
poration as a government agency
was suable as any other corporation.
The refusal of the court to reopen
the cases will result. the government
asserted. in a flood of suits being in
stituted against the corporation.
The base ball case, brought by the
defUnct Baltimore Federal League
Club against organized base ball, re-
suited iii the court deciding that pro-
fessional base ball as played by
teams under the national agreement
is not interstate commerce, and IN
dismissing the suit for treble dam
ages brought under the Sherman
antitrust law

PRISON HELPS THE FARMER
Immense Lot of Farm Machinery
Manufactured at Minnesota
State Prison

Whether the officials of the In
ternational Harvester Company have
been more interested in marriages
than in machinery may not be decid-
ed, but figures given out by the
census bureau would indicate that
the trust had better pay closer at
tention to business if it hopes to
keep up the exploitation of men who
till the soil.
The census department show that
in 1921 there has been a decrease
of Al per cent in the total value of
farm machinery products sold as
compared with the year before. The
largest percentages of decrease APP
pear in horse drawn vehicles and in
tractors and traction engines
This is a tremendous falling off,
but while it has been in progress
price reductions on farm machinery
manufactured at the Minnesota State
prison, granted in response to a
request by the Minnesota Farm Blu
reau Federation, have saved farm
ers of that state $15O,OOo in a
year.
A report from this prison shows
that 7,108 farm machines have been
sold in the last twelve months, in
Guiding particularly binders, mowers
and rakes. This represents an in
crease of 139 per cent in the use of
binders, SO per cent in the sale of
mowers, and 10 per cent increase in
the consumption of rakes.
The manufacture of farm machin-
cry in the state prison comes as a
result of farm bureau activity and
should prove an inspiration to other
states, for seemingly a way has been
found to get at least the thin end
of the wedge into the iron ring the
harvester trust has held around the
throat of the farmer for years.
1t has been contended that putting
on the market the products of pri-
son labor would mhorse business,
but if the harvester trust be unhors-
ed, nobody viii grieve very much.
The farmers pay their share for
the support of the restricted Grimm
ais, so it is not a bad idea for them
to get something out of the labor of
their wards.
