Force Workers to Join

Everett, Wash, Dec. 15.-The Great Northern railroad compels applicants for employment to sign pledge that they will join the company union, locked out shop men declare.
 The shop men compare this position with their policy of depending on the voluntary action of workers to join the trade union movement.
 There are hundreds of men on strike today against conditions i'm posed by the railroad labor board and the various railroad companies, men who did not belong to the organiza- ton and perhaps never will" the shop men say. "But even these men, who enjoyed all the privileges and bene- fits secured through the organization without paying cent therefor, could see the injustice that would result from the boards rulings"

EDUCATION COMES FIRST.

Washington, Dec. 15.-"What we do or fail to do in public education will largely determine the future ot our experiment in democracy" said J. J. Tigert, United States commits sioner of education, in his annual re- port.
 Assimilation of the foreign born. removal of i1literacy, adjustment of inequalities in educational opportun- ity and inculcation of proper ideals concerning our form of government are problems which the educational forces of the country must meet. h. formed leadership in dealing with these problems is needed more than ever before, it is stated.
 The United States bureau of edu- cation is required by law to promote the cause of education throughout the country, to be informed on all subjects pertaining to education, and to disseminate such information, ac- cording to the report.

U. s. SHIPPING BOARD OFFICIALS
 TO BUY SHIPS

. Washington, Dec 15.-In speech 1 in opposition to the ship subsidy bill , ,>Congressman Davis of Tennessee in cluded a>statement by the New York ] Tribune, issue of November 22, that ! members of the United States ship ping board arc part of combination
 that is being formed to buy govern
 ment vessels if the ship subsidy bill passes This is of especial interest in view of the intense activity of mem
 bers of the shipping board to secure
 the passage of the ship subsidy bill,
 The Tribune's statement follows:
 "The personnel of the syndicate
 which proposes to buy the United
 States lines from the government as
 going concern, and to form the largest Atlantic operating company, 1t was in dicated yesterday, includes E. J.
 Mccormack of Mccormack x Moore; w. F. Gibbs naval architect; William ]. Love and J: Barstow Smull of the shipping board, and Homer Ferguson of the Newport News Ship Building & Dry Dock Company.
 "The syndicate's original plan, as submitted to Chairman Lasker of the shipping board, contemplated the talk ing over of the Leviathan, as well as Of the meet or the OIlteu otdteo lii0o' and the building of two palatial 1000 foot liners for the Atlantic passenger trade"
 The Tribune's reference to the Leviathan recalls the fact that the or iginal ship subsidy bill, as urged by Chairman Lasker, permitted the ship ping board to dispose of this mon ster passenger vessel at any price it saw fit The Leviathan is now being overhauled at cost of millions of 1 dollars and the house of representa- lives blocked the game to give this boat away to "insiders" by providing in the bill that the Leviathan can not be sold for less than the cost of re- her.

DID BOSSES IMPORT I. ". ". INTO ARIZONA

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. Ex-Governor
 elect Hunts appointment of H. s
 McCluskey, president of the Arizona
 State Federation of Labor, as privatf secretary of the governor, recalls tha'
 trade unionist's challenge to copper
 managers to disprove the charge thai they imported l. w. WIS into this
 state during the war.
 The challenge was made in 1918 al
 meeting of the executive commit
 tee of the Arizona state council of de
 fense in the office of Governor Hunt Every mine manager in this state was present, as were several labor officials McCluskey said he had information which justified the statement that the transportat of I. w.. WIS into Ari- zona was being paid by certain cop per corporations He challenged one mine manager, member of the ex- ecutive council of the state council of defense, to make motion asking for an investigation of the matter by the United. States war labor board. The trade unionist said he would bring witnesses and afidavits before the board. The copper manager refused to make the motion.
 McCluskey then asked the other mine managers to instruct their rep resentatives on the executive commit tee of the state council of defense to make such a motion. All declined to do SO, and denied that their corpo- rations had knowingly paid the of I. w. WIS into the state.
 No mention of this incident was made by the coppor-controlled press. This silence is in marked contrast to the mobbing of Bisbee miners the pre- vious year. This outlawry smashed the workers attempt to improve con 1itions The mob was led by mine managers and other responsible citi- zens. The copper-controlled press that these workers were l. w. WIS, and this was the defense of l lawlessness that was never pun shed

Get TITLEFOR
STATE HIGHWAY
Fred Young Buying Right-of- Way
for Route No. and Clear
Path for Actual Work.

Right-of-way for state bond issue
route. No. 8, will be obtained imme-
diately by Fred w. Young of Rock
Island, right-of-way agent for the
Illinois highway department.
When the route is definitely fixed
the contract will be awarded and
the department expects to begin
work on the highway this year.
The northern terminal of this
route is Morrison and the southern
is Rushville.
Mr.. Young met with the state aid
road committee of the Rock Island
county board of supervisors this
morning and an outline of plans
was agreed upon. The board of
supervisors anticipated this action
as far as possible, comforting broad
powers upon the committee in order
that there should be no delay when
the state department was ready to
proceed, as it inow is.
The county bears the expense for
the land obtained for right-of-way,
but it is expected that much will be
donated for the improvement.

YEOMAN HOME
DIRECTOR SEES
DISTRICT HEAD
Mark Mckee, Detroit, Here for
Brief Conference, Says Rock
Island Has Chance.

Rock Island will have at least an
"eyen break" with other aspirants
for the location of the 100000
children's home to be erected by
the Brotherhood of American Yeo-
men, Mark Mckee, Detroit, mem
Der of the board of directors of the
order, said during a brief stay in
this city last night
Mr.. Mckee is not only member
of the board of directors, but is the
director who will manage the home
after it's erection. He spent two
hours in Rock Island, in confer
ence with Bernard H. Burns, dis
trict manager of the Yeomen. He
was enroute to Des Moines, where
a four-day session of the directors
begins today.
He told Mr.. Burns that sentiment
of the directors seemed to be that
the home should be located either
in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana or Ohio,
and that the choice was narrowing
down to location on some site in
the territory embraced by the four
states named. Director Mckee did
not know until his arrival here last
evening that Rock Island county
was endeavoring to secure the To-
cation of the home within it's Dor
ders. When he was apprised by
Mr.. Burns of the efforts being made
by the Rock Island Chamber of
Commerce and other organizations,
he said that the status of the situa-
ton justified the statement that
chance with other suggested local
tiles.
Pleased at Interest
He was pleased that a large num-
Der of citizens of Rock Island had
signed petitions and were prepar-
ing to organize a second homestead
of the order, and said that such &C
ton would undoubtedly make a
good impression upon the direc-
tors of the order. who would look
upon it as an evidence of real in
terest in the order.
He said that if two weeks no
tice was given him, he would per-
sonally attend the Rock Island
class adoption, and would under
take that other directors would
also be present.
The further statement was made
by the director that the reason why
a location was being sought within
the limits of Illinois, Iowa, Indiana
or Ohio was that the climate, with
its four recurring seasons, was
deemed most adapted for the. health
of the homes inmates.
