BIG UNIONS TO
ACT TOGETHER
United Mine Workers and Rail-
road Organizations in Com
mon Cause.
WILL RESIST WAGE CUTTING
President Lewis Of the Miners, in
Official Statement, Declares There
Is Concerted Movement to En-.
force Unwarranted Reductions.

Alliance of the United Mine Workers
and the sixteen big railroad unions to
resist any wage cuts has been pro-
posed by the miners.
Invitations to the rail unions were
sent out from headquarters OF the
mine workers.
The plan for an alliance of the two
most powerful union organizations OF
the country comes at time when 1t Is
admitted a fight looms over miners
wages which may tie up coal produc-
ton In both the bituminous and an
thracite fields and when the wage
question is sharply to the fore in the
railroad organizations.
'"rhe railroad workers have been
compelled to accept inequitable wage
reductions and propaganda is being
conducted on gigantic scale designed
to enforce further unwarranted wage
cuts upon them" said a statement is
sued by John L. Lewis, president OF
the United Mine Workers.
1T is likewise apparent that certain
interests are seeking wage reductions
in the coal mining industry. In order
to cope with this situation and sue
cessfully combat this frenzied hysteria
the :rine workers are willing to un-
reservedly pool their interests with the
railroad organizations and stand with
them In resistance to the proposed at
tacks upon their wage schedules"

IMPETUS TO LABOR MOVEMENT

If labor is slow and ineffective, why
this countrywide cry for cant
strike" laws, asks Justice" official
magazine of the International Ladies
Garment Workers union.
"The growth of the labor movement
is disturbing the peace OF our cham
bers of commerce." says this labor
paper. "While we believe that the
scheme of prohibiting strikes will give
a powerful impetus to the labor move
ment, we point out to those of our
readers who may have been thinking
that our labor movement is hopeless
ly slow and ineffective, that our rulers
and masters disagree with them en-
tirely.
"The masters consider our labor
movement as the only great menace
to their continued domination, and
that explains the meaning OF their
newest plot 10 destroy the labor
movement by legislation. We are
convinced that this attempt will be a
lesson on the need of greater unity
and loyalty to number of our work
ers and that it will drive out their
pessimism.
"Henceforth the workers must for
get all their imaginary differences
and line up their forces against the
dark powers which threaten the life
of the labor movement.
"But should all these means of pro-
test fail and labor serfdom be made a
part of our law books, we should not
despair of the character and aspira-
tions of our labor movement. The
modern worker can no longer be con-
verted into a slave, and if he decides
to quit work, quit he will, legally if
possible, illegally if necessary"

Species Discovered That

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Feb 13.-Yel-
low fever, the scourge of South America
for centuries has been eradicated from
Guayaqun on the coast of Ecuador, ac-
cording to an announcement received
here by DR.. CaEl IL. Eigenmann, head of
the department of zoology of Indiana
University and an authority in South
American fishes, from the sanitary COM
mission of Ecuador. The announcement
was accompanied by specimens of little
fishes discovered for the prevention of
the disease, with d request that they be
classified and that information be given
from data collected in various Indiana
university expeditions to South America
as to where these fishes are to be found.
The fishes have been identified and de
tailed information has been forwarded
which viii enable other South American
countries to locate the fishes and use
them in dealing death TO the yellow fever
mosquito.
yellow fever is carried from one per
son TO another Ly a mosquito which lives
in the barrels in which the natives of
South America keep their drinking Wa
ter. Each family has kept its own sup
ply of yellow fever carriers, So to speak,
and many times ports of the west coast
have been closed against ships on ac-
count of outbreaks of yellow fever. Re
Gently the sanitary commission of Ecua-
dor began experiments with various fishes
which would eat the mosquitoes in the
barrels. Some fishes ate the "wigglers
which develop into mosquitoes, and it
was found that two fishes, called ''chal-
acos' and "huaijas' by the natives,
did the work effectively.
The ''chalacos' is found everywhere
along the tropical part of the Pacific
coast and will be available for mosque
to control along with the entire danger
zone from Peru to California. Others
of the same species are found in similar
situations over the entire danger zone
in the West Indies and hot Atlantic
coast.
The second species, called ''huaiias
would be even better able to control the
situation than the ''chalacos - if it did
not have the habit of jumping out of
the barrels This fish is confined to
Central Peru, according 10 the records
of the Indiana University expeditions.

did this give an opportunity for indoor
workers to enjoy one of the most health
full of summer sports, but it actually was
found to bring a fair profit to the cities
and profit aside from the food value of
the fish caught by the fishermen.
Based on the success of the English
municipalities the city of New York has
placed at the disposal of the angling pub

Inasmuch as Stiles pond and the Pas
sumpSic river will soon be planted with
these fish 1t Is Interesting to note some of
the characteristics of the fish In the
first place they do not render the water
foul, but purify the water The reasons
are easily understood. Fish, even trout
are kind of scavengcr. Frog and FROG
spawn will pollutc the reservoirs. grass
hoppers, beetles and other forms of life
are washed into municipal reservoirs and
the fish viii promptly dispose of them
Scientists also claim that the agitation Of
the breathing of the fish tends to increase
the purity of the water
The brown trout can stand a much
higher temperature than the brook trout
and multiply in the Passumpsic river As
and hence it is believed they will thrive
they grow larger than the brook trout il
is not expected they win find their way
into the Caledonia county streams already
stocked with brook trout, but will con-
fine their habitat to the Passumpsic
river and when grown up will furnish a
lot Of sport for local fishermen.
