No section in this cigar belt has been neglected. We attend their regu- lar meetings in some of the homes. Suspended members attend these gathrings and to hear them beWail the fact that they allowed thems selves to become suspended in some cases is very pathetic, realizing as they do now their abject helplessness, these trust manufacturers are leaving noth- ing undone to completely exploit their victoms. Cigar makers who have never visited the Pennsylvania cheap belt can have no conception of conditions that prevail here. Until such time when the cigar maker wakes up, joins hi sunion, will he have to bear the consequences of his indifference. The International Union, through it's organizers, Is trying to do it's leve lbest to show to it's critics that 1t Is and always has tried in every possible way to educate the Pennsyl- vania cigar maker to the point where he will join his union. Until he sees this he will continue to be the victim O fhis own folly. We are now send ing out our second series of circualrs and in the very near future begin to hold open meetings as fast as we can reach the various local unions. We sincerely hope to be able to induce our fellow cigar makers to join their various locals

Employers Save Lives
 When 1t Means Profit
Smelling Trust Reduces Casualties 7e Per Cent. in Seven Years and
 Saves Much Money

When it costs employers money to neglect the safety of their workers they take steps to reduce accidents to the minimum. as is evidenced by 3 report made recently by Simon Gug- genheim, of the Smelling Trust showing decrease in casualties to its workers of 76 per cent. over the rec ord of 1913.
 The majority of employers bitterly opposed accident liability and work CTS compensation bills, because they placed before them the alternative oi paying for neglect or adopting meth ods of accident prevention.
 MT. Guggenhei touched upon this matter in his report when he said that if the "accident rate had not decreased from the rate of 1913 the employers liability fund expenditure would have totalled $2,474,533 instead of $I,o73,- 357."
 In saving this million and a quarter of dollars, the Shelter Trust also saved the lives of hundreds of work CTS. In 1921 only 6 in 1000 em- ployes were hurt against 264 hurt in 1913.

SOL SONTHEIMER NOW ON THE JOB

Veteran Connecticut Labor Man, Or ganizing Cigar Makers in
 Disputed State.

After many strenuous days amidst the rigors of the Tampa cigar strike, Sol. Sonthcimer, of Hartford, general organizer Of the Cigar Makers Union, has again gotten into the saddle and is now hard at work in the disputed territory in Pennsylvania. Sol writest
 Acting under instruction, proceeded to Pennsylvania, where after a con- ference with Organizers McCabe and kecnen, mapped out plan of can- paign in an effort to get the unor- ganized cigar makers interested in our effort to brnig them within the fold
 The territory covering this cheap belt is a very large one. We decided to work in different sections separately. Circulars have been printed and sent into the homes. Cigar makers here are slow to attend any of the open meetings and 1 am sorry to say one secretary informed me that quite a number of members of the union of which he IS secretary would lose their jobs if their employers knew they were union men, thereby showing if they were organized this would not be the case. In the last three months wages have been reduced at great rate. The cigar makers are not con suited when these wholesale reduC-

Women Trade UniOnists
 to Oppose Amendment
Call Upon National Woman's Party to Abandon Campaign for So-
 Called Equality Proposition.

A conference of members of the Womans' Trade Union League from all sections of the country, held at Washington, D. C., went on record as unalterably opposed to the pro posed equality amendment to the Constitution, on the ground that in stead of benefiting women it will be a real detri1nent to milloins of workers who will through it's operation be de- prived of the protection of laws en- actde in their behalf.
 Following this action, Alice Paul, speaking for the National Woman s Party, declared that it would go for ward with it's campaign for the blanket amendment in every state in the Union. The Woman's Party had been earnestly requested by the Wo- mans Trade Union League to aban- don it's demand for legislation that would be injurious to so many work CTS, without, the league said, confer ring any compensatory benefits.
 The Woman's Party leaders have stubbornly refused to yield, however They seem to be we'll supplied with campaign funds, and they are given unlimited publicity by the newspapers controlled by Big Business"

REDS USE GOLD STRIKE TO REVOLT
 IN SOUTH AFRICA
Trade Unionists, However, Refuse to Be Stampeded While Others
 Are Shot Down.

Johannesburg, Union of South Afri- ca, March I7.-Operations against the Ran dgold mine strikers continued in the vicinity of Pretoria, although the strike Is on the wane. The Germis- ton railway revolutionaries were heavily bombed, but they persisted in their attempts to damage the railway, which they had succeeded in doing twice before. The line, however, had been repaired on both occasions.
 One commando, 500 strong, which had succeeded in blowing up part of the railway at Driefontein, was To- cated and bombed by an airplane. The airplane dropped rations to a number of detached police officers who were beseiged by the strikers.
 A few officials who were guarding the Brakpan mines were clubbed to death after having surrendered when their ammunition ran out.
 A volunteer power statoin has been successful in maintaining the light ing of the city.
 It IS doubtful if Johannesburg ever experienced such Sunday at the last one, with airplanes necessarily whir- ring overhead and bombing, while revolutionareis indulged in intermit- tent bursts of machine gun fire, Amidst the hubbub of destruction the church bells continued ringing at the hours for service.

Paul Jones, bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church and secretary of the Fellowship of Reconciliation, New York
 "When the church abandons it's at tltude of spiritual snobbery," declared Bishop Jones, "in which it imagines it can put over something in the indus trial field by doing something for the workers and thus winning their grati- tude and allegiance, and begins in hu- mility to seek ways of working with them in the establishment of sound economic relations, so that the every day work of the world may be field for the expression of real brother hood, it will have found the way to the solution of the problem.
 The church, by abandoning the protection of property values which now characterizes our political life, can, if 1t has faith enough to seek the kingdom of God first, join the ranks ot those who put human relationship first and lose itself in seeking the life ot the world. It will then not dis pense social gospel, perhaps, but, bet ter, it will live it."

tions are made. That's all due to
 lhelr indifference to organization. This does not hold good in shops where they are organized.
 Cigar manufacturers, that IS to say, the open shops, have very novel way of getting the cigar makers to come into their shops and take their cheap jobs, saying, You can work as many hours as you like in our shop and thereby increase your earning pOwer,' and how those men and Wo men do work from early morn until late at night-never lose a shove. In many instances the children of these economic slaves bring their parents bite for dinner and repeat when sup per time comes along. After father hours for a whole week they have what a terribel cost-children neg lected and our so called much vaunt- ed American standard of living really becomes farce-and this is what is called the American plan.
 However, l am glad to say we are making some headway. The whole cigar belt Is talking as a result of our literature being sent into their homes. This is usually mailed to them on Friday so as to give them time to read 1t on Sundays. A peculiar situa- ton prevails Ill some communities. There shops are working until late at night, while in other localities the shops are and have been shut down completely. This is true of Reading and many other localiteis In quite number of the unions they have ap- pointed subcommittee to assist in getting out the circulars. Secretaries in some of these unions have given us every possible assistance This Is N,erN mich annreciated

 The fighting has been accompanied by the most exciting incidents, air plane engagements, aviators escaping after great risks and daring and gal lantry on the part of besieged police and troops. In some cases loyal forces have been hemmed in for two or three days before airplane relief enabled them to fight their way out.
