country largely is controlled either by
corporations which require control in
order to shape public opinion TO their
corporate interests or by those who
are engaged i'm publication as a busi-
ness enterprise for money-making
purposes.
Behind the mask the purpose clear
ly is TO endeavor to blindfold labor
and lead it into the bogs of confusion.
But labor cannot be fooled by any
such game of blindman bluff.
But Labor Won't Be Slaughtered.
It's a fine prospect-this govern
ment of labor by the press agents OF
privilege. The forces of privilege and
greed evidently believe it's worth
spending a few millions to bring
about such a national law. To herd
all the country's workers in single
corral, in one gorgeous roundup, fet-
ter them, gag them, shackle them and
slaughter them, offers such possibili-
ties of gleeful diversion to stated
privilege as TO justify planning ter
rifle rush upon congress to force il to
join in the CORY sport.

COAL PRICES
SOAR WHILE
WAGES DECLINE

The latest report OF the Bureau OF
Labor Statistics of the United States
Department OF Labor reports that In
ave cities In which survey was made
IL was found that the price of coal to-
day Is higher than at the peak OF war
time profiteering. There has been a
steady increase In the cost 10 the Goa
sumer since last May.
At the same time, the production
has dropped to the lowest point In
the history Of the industry. Thou
sands of miners and their families are
actually starving. Many of them have
not been permitted TO do days work
for nearly year.
West of the Mississippi farmers
are burning corn as fuel, because they
are unable TO meet the high price de-
nianded Tor coal.
This. badly. Ii an outline Of ths
coal situation. Miners starve because
they are not producing; farmers burn
ing food because II Is cheaper thar
coal, and the operator, starving the
worker and freezing the farmer, IL
taking his profits in diminished pro
duction.

with propaganda favoring wage cut
for workers, their argument being
that this Is necessary to increase pro-
duction and lower costs. The public
will fall for this stuff, no doubt; but
If the facts are known the coal barons
would not get far with their cam
paign.
Mine labor costs are not higher
than they were three years ago. Coal
prices are much higher than they
were three years ago. And three
years ago the coal industry was prov
en TO be enormously profitable. Some
operators, according TO official sta
tistics, made more than 5000 per cent
on their investment. Profits running
from 100 to 1000 per cent were COM
paratively common. Railroads today
are paying for coal just about half
the price charged consumers. 1t
would be fatuous to assume that the
operators are handling this business
at loss.
What the coal barons desire Is still
higher profits and to that end they
intend, If they can, TO further impov-
erish the workers. Even should
wages be reduced there Is no assur-
ance that the public would get the
benefit. The operators will see To
that, for their past record proves that
there is no limit to their rapacity.

than TO give labor a chance TO explain

will be given In the near future.

JOHN GLENN ASKED
TO DEBATE "OPEN
SHOP" WITH FREY

So far, no one has accepted the
challenge of the Twin City Fedora
ton of Labor To meet John 7. Frey,
editor of the Molders' journal. in an
open debate on the "open shop ques-
ton, and it appears that no one af-
flicted with that malady has enough
confidence in himself or faith in the
cause he champions to discuss the
question openly.
The Federation is going to arrange
the debate II an opponent to Mr..
Frey can be found. So it has address,
Ell the following letter to John Glenn,
secretary of the Illinois Manufactur-
ers' Association, Chicago, Ill.,:

The most now expected OF Geona,

into ancient manuscripts setting
forth the legend Of the lost treasure.
