BROTHERS Die
BENEATH AUTO

St. John, N. D., March 20. - The
bodies of Allen and Henry Summer.
brothers, of St. John, were found
partially immersed in pool beside a
grade between Rolette and Mylo, pin
ned down by their overturned auto,
which had apparently skidded or
swerved from the roadway. The weight
of the car had broken the ice and i'm
prisoned both brothers. Their shoul-
ders were left dry. No bruises were
found except a small indentation over
Henry's left eye. Their fists were
clenched indicating the suffering of
great pain. It is believed either their
backs were broken, or that pinioned,
they froze to death. Their parents,
several sisters and brother survive.

may be taken in the exercise of recog-

Third: All employees now on strike

sentatives of the carriers and the rep
resentatives of the organizations es-
pecially agree that there will be no
discrimination by either party against
the employees who did not strike.
The managers make a great ado
about the third section of the pro-
posed settlement, which, they insist,
does not care for their strikebreak-
ers.

from Washington gave this semi-offi-

When the strike started these exec
utives insisted that the government of
the United States was challenged and
that the fight was between the govern
ment and the strikers. Now, when
the president, speaking for the gov
ernment, presents peace proposal,
the executives change front and raise
the pirates emblem. The presidents
proposal is as follows:
First: Railway managers and
workmen are to agree to recognize
the validity of all decisions of the
railroad labor board, and to faith
fully carry out such decisions as con-
templated by the law.
Second: The carriers will withdraw
all lawsuits growing out of the strike,

area covered, and the order maintain
ed by these million workers, who are
presenting marvellous exhibition of
solidarity and discipline
The strikes have demolished the
anti-union campaign so ceaselessly
waged since the armistice. The si-
lence of these anti-union elements in
dicate their bewilderment at this soli-
darity, which has been so unexpected
by them.
Another pet theory of anti-union-
lists that has been demolished is the
cry that 'free men" will work if as
sured protection. Troops are now
overrunning western Pennsylvania,
but despite a profusion of soldiers,
American flags and blessings from
the White House, the union miners
have not returned to work
The exposure of this pet claim of
anti-unionists is one of the hardest
smashes they have received.

sized their view of the Seniority
issue" and that taken by the railroad
executives as expressed in public
statements. Public statements of
railroad heads that the granting of
the strikers demand for a return of
full seniority rights would necessi-
tate the discharge of scores of thou
sands of efficient workers hired to
take their places have been fatty de-
MED in informal discussions with
newspaper correspondents, said to be
exaggerated, and otherwise stamped
as unreliable 1t has been further
represented in some government quar-
ters that such men as have been hired
would not generally be of character
and capacity which would make them
suitable as permanent employees"
Opposition to the presidents plan
is led by handful of eastern man
ayers. These "die hards" represent
high financial and anti-union interests
that are powerful enough to crack the
whip over every manager.

AGAIN EXPOSED
Is Ship Subsidy Plan-Ad-
vOcates Claim Shattered
By Fletcher

Washington.-The ship subsidy, if
passed, would in all probability find
its way into the pockets of the bank
ers and brokers and insurance com
panies-all interested in foreign ship
ping and the latter channel leading
directly into foreign lands," declared
Senator Fletcher, of Florida, in a
scathing attack on the subsidy pro-
posal
"Most likely" he said, "this is what
would happen: The money to buy the
ships and operate them would be fur
nished by the banks and through
brokers who would rake off the direct
subsidy. Whatever was left, if any,
the insurance combine would get"
The Florida lawmaker shattered the
claim of subsidy advocates that this
act is necessary to reimburse ship
owners who are forced to pay exces-
sive wages to American seamen.
'The testimony" said Senator
Fletcher, Showed the difference III
wage cost and subsistence cost, the
difference in cost of operation between
vessels of the United States and for
eign vessels, was largely a myth, and
if there was negligible quantity
when considered along with the whole
enterprise. In other words, the small
percentage of the difference would cut
no material figure in calculating the
profit and loss of each ship. The tes-
timony of Mr. Furuseth and Mr.. Phil
ip Mason (ship owner) and others es,
tablished that clearly.
"The truth is American seamen's
wages are lower than Canada and or
level with British. The only mari.
time power where American wages
are substantially higher is that of the
Japanese. Crews have been reduced
by order of the shipping board unit
in some classes of ships the American
advantage is 80 per cent"

MOONEY JUROR
Accused By Wife of Having
Violated Oath

San Francisco.-The long list of
crooked transactions in connection
with the Mooney case has been in
creased by an affidavit filed in con-
nection with the divorce plea of the
wife of William V. MacNevin, fore
man of the jury that convicted Moon
ey of completely in the preparedness
day outrage on July %, 1916.
Mrs. MacNevin makes oath that her
husband gained much political inau-
ence from his service as foreman of
that jury. She asserts that he violat-
ed his oath as juror by holding fre-
quent conferences with Edward A.
Cunha, assistant prosecutor, at her
home and elsewhere. MacNevin, she
asserts, used his influence as fore
man to persuade other jurors to vote
for conviction. The result of these
activities, she continues, was to give
MacNevin great political influence.
Cunha and MacNevin naturally de-
ny these statements. The prosecutor
who was in close touch with Oxman
one of the proven perjurers in the
case, declares that Mrs. MacNevin's
affidavit is "unqualifiedly false"

BANDITS--BIC BIZ
Form Get-Together Combi-
nation in Mexico

Washington.-In urging recogni-
ton Of Mexico by the United States,
Senator Ladd, of North Dakota, said
it was a curious coincidence that
"these well press-agented outbreaks
of banditry" in Mexico should only oc-
cur where the American oil compan-
les are located and where, as a mat
ter of official record, former bandit
chiefs have been in their pay"
at is significant" he continued,
'that these affairs should be precipi-
tated just as financial arrangements
between the Mexican government and
a group of international bankers were
on the eve of consummation in New
York City.
Most unprejudiced observers win
decide that these 'kidnapers' have
the appearance of being staged ac-
cording to prearranged plan at the
very moment best calculated to en-
barrass the Mexican government in its
negotiations looking toward the fund
ing of its debt, and practically all
the metropolitan newspapers of the
United States have taken precisely
this view of the situation.
Indeed, it is doubtful whether some
of these so-called 'kidnapings' had any
actual existence except in the mind of
subsidized press agents; but admit
ting that bandits, whether in the pay
of American oil companies or other
wise, did commit the outrages charg-
ed to them, it cannot be denied that
President Obregon acted with great
diligence in Immediately dispatching
large force of federal troops to
the district.
"In view of the admitted facts that
American oil interests have paid stip-
ulated sums to bandits operating in
the Tampico region, and that Thomas
F. Lee, secretary of the national asso-
citation for the protection Of Ameri
can rights in Mexico, endeavored te
foment revolution in Mexico only 9
year ago, it is safe to assume thai
| President Obregon was correct wher
he characterized the recent Tampict
kidnapping as the inspiration of in
fluences to disturb public opinion il
the United States"

Attempt Being Made To

Washington. the movement
of troops, together with we'll adver-
tised conferences by public officials,
pronunciamentos by the government,
emergency control of coal and pool
ing of railroad equipment, man
from Mars would believe this old U.
S. A. was surrounded by foes.
Instead, all the trumpery and noise
is caused by an attempt to break the
nationwide movement of coal and
railroad workers to secure a living
wage.
Every effort is being made by the
government and employers to break
these strikes, but no attempt is made
to settle them.
The contract between miners and
central competitive field coal owners
has been entirely overlooked by those
who would apply force to drive these
employees back to the mines. This
contract was underwritten by the gov
ernment and provided that at its expi-
ration March 81, 1929 both parties
should meet to arrange for new
contract. No mention is made of this
contract by those who are hurting
proclamations, troops, injunctions and
misleading propaganda at the miners.
The railroad shop men are victims
of the same methods, and the rail
managers, with an impudence that
can only come from United States
treasury raiders, declare that the
railroad strike is not against them,
but against the government.
The strikes are nationwide, reach
ing from the Atlantic to the Pacific
and from the great lakes to the gulf.

volved, yet there has been, compara-
lively speaking, no violence, despite

GROUPS
Illinois Senator Introduces Resolution Which, if Made
Law, Empowers Congress to Limit or Prohibit
The Labor of Persons Under Is Years

Washington.-At the request of
the permanent conference for the
abolition of child labor, Senator Nc
Cormick, of Illinois, introduced a
joint resolution in the senate propos-
ing an amendment to the constitution
which will empower congress "to limit
or prohibit the labor of persons under
18 years of age" The resolution is as
follows:
Resolved by the senate and house
of representatives of the United
States of America in congress assem-
bled (two-t thirds of each house con-
curing therein), that the following
articles is proposed as an amendment
to the constitution of the United
States, which, when ratified by the
legislatures of three-fourths of the
several states, shall be valid to all
intents and purposes as a part of the
constitution:
"Article-The congress shall have
power to limit or prohibit the labor
of persons under 18 years of age, and
power is also reserved to the several
states to limit or prohibit such labor
in any way which does not lessen any
limitation of such labor or the ay
tent of any prohibition thereof by
congress. The power vested in the
congress by this article shall be addi-
tional to and not limitation ON the
powers elsewhere vested in the con-
gress by the constitution with respect
to such labor"
The proposed amendment is the
result of the United States supreme
courts decision against child labor
legislation. The first attempt to con-

mail Interference" Yarns
Have Ceased

Washington.-In a speech in this
city P j. Conlon, vice president of
the International Association of Ma
chinists, showed why newspapers no
longer print wild yarns of mail in
reference by striking shop men
The trade unionist said:
can effort was made to put us in
the light of opposing the government
and interfering with the trarsporta-
tion of the mails There was talk
of mobilizing a fleet of trucks to carry
the mails, and when we responded.
Bring on the trucks and we will help
put them in condition, and get the
mail issue out of the affair." talk of
this nature ceased"
Vice President Conlon's statement
is corroborated by this acknowledge
ment in the Washington Post that the
mail interference" stories were at
tempts to discredit the shop men.
while train service has slackened
up at points Postmaster General
Work is understood to have informed
the president at the cabinet meeting

mail had not been materially inter
fered with by the strike"

WHAT DO WORKERS LOSE?
ESTIMATES OF STRIKE LOSSES IN WAGES HAVE
NO VALUE ACCORDING TO PUBLICATION
OF U. S. BUREAU OF LABOR
STATISTICS
Fact That Many Strikers Drift Into Other Calngs And
Often Wage Increases Are Gained 1t Is Utterly
Impossible to Figure Actual Loss

employers, the writer states that few
explain their method of figuring
these losses
"In the absence of strikebreakers,
the loss from fire, destruction and
rioting is uncommon, except in occa-
sional large strikes. These are ex-
penses connected with strikes which
seem to be without corresponding
gain anywhere, but in general their
cost is greatly overestimated.
While it may be possible to get
at the cost of few small strikes,
it does not seem that figures purport-
ing to represent the cost of strikes
in money have any value whatever"
