LYRIC THEATRE
SIGNS UP

Local 1856, l. A. T. S. E., informs us
that they have been successful in
having the new management of the
Lyric theatre sign their agreement.
Mr. Gus Ferris, the new manager,
informed officials of the union that
he desired to run his theatre with none
but union projectionists. Mr.. Ferris
did not care to continue the argument
of the previous management, and SO
Immediately affixed his signature to
the contract.
The common sense judgment of Mr.
Ferris proves that he intends to run
his theatre on a business-like method,
and he can rest assured that organ
lied labor will give him every possi-
BILE boost and extend every effort to
help erase the black eye this house
received while insisting on bucking
organized labor

ed into the largest and best dance
place in the city, and large crowds
can be accommodated with ease.
Plenty of electric lights will adorn
the place and steam heat will keep
the place warm in case of severe cold
weather. The opening of the new
auditorium with dance promises to
be quite large affair Hundreds of
trades unionists with their families,
likewise many other families have
promised to attend Music for the
occasion will be furnished by the pop
ular Peerless Orchestra. All who
have attended the labor temple dances
during the summer months need no
introduction to the Peerless Orches-
ira. An enjoyable time is anticipat-
ed, so, brothers, get in line and make
the opening success.
On Thursday and Friday evenings,
December 21st and 22nd, bazaar
will be held in the labor temple halls.
Magnificent arrangements are being
made by the committee in charge.
This is going to be an eye opener
for all who attend On Saturday
night, December 23rd, the bazaar will
wind up with a real dance. This
will be week of labor temple festivi-
ties, and all are invited to pay visit
at least one of the evenings. This
will encourage the committees to do
their best in the future.

GUST RAIL BOARD
And Take Chance on Good
Will of Rail Managers,
Advises GOmpers

Washington. - Confusion worse
confounded," declared President Com
pers in referring to the railroad labor
boards denial of living wage.
'The law in itself specifies living
wage" said President Gompers. "The
sooner the railroad labor board is
abolished and we depend upon the
good will and negotiations of railroad
management and railroad workers,
the better it will be for all concerned.
"The aw provides that the award
of the board shall be just and reason
able. Surely anything below rea-
sonable wage is not just and reason
able to man with wife and fam
lily. To say the railroads will be re-
quired to meet the bill and ultimately
the public and tell him he is not to
get a living wage-that does not sat
isfy him, nor is it just or reasonable.
There is no question but congress had
in mind living wage, just and rea-
sonable
"Yet these modern autocrats, sh-
perior even to the intelligence of con-
gress, stigmatize the intelligence and
purposes of congress as delusive and
deceptive.
"Any body that sets itself against
the living wage, whether it is gov
ernment agency or not, nught to be
overturned and thrown out"
Defenders of the board are panic
stricken at the boards rejection of
the priniipse of living wage. These
defenders have innisted that the
board would eventually" find place
in the scheme of things, but it's lat
est deiision has armed organized la
Dor with another club to use against
it.

RESOLUTION
Passed at the Third Ma
tiOnal Congress of the Co.
Operative League, Chica-
go, October 2S, 1922.

WHEREAS, There is an organiza-
tion in the city of Chicago known as
the COOPERATIVE Society of America
which has secured large member
ship through representations that it is
a cooperative; and,
WHEREAS, Investigation discloses
the fact that the society is not in
corporated, but is organized under
declaration of trust, which gives the
following powers to three trustees
who were not appointed and may not
be removed by the membership, viz:
that the trustees own the title to
all the property of the society in
their own names; that they may con-
vey, mortgage or otherwise dispose
of property without consulting the
membership; that the trustees may
fix their own salaries as officers with
out consulting the membership, and
in addition are entitled to Az per
cent of the income of the business;
that the trustees may hold office until
the year 1910, or for a longer period
of time if they so agree among them
selves; that they may choose their
own successors without consulting
the membership; that they may use
the funds of the organization in pri-
vate ventures of their own; that they
are not under bond and are not per-
sonally liable for any losses incurred
through their errors of Judgment;
and,
WHEREAS, The members of this
so-called "Co-Operative Society" are
either for the election of trustees or
the determination of business poll
cies, it being provided by the declara-
| ton of trust governing the society
that the ownership of certificates
should not entitle such owner to any
title in the trust property, nor the
right to have any dividends paid un-
less the trustees in their own discre-
| ton may choose to declare them; and,
WHEREAS, Investigations by a
receiver disclosed the fact that al
though S11 ,337,9 ,965 had been collected
up to October, 1921, for the sale of
certificates in the society, only $2,-
621 ,279 had been paid over to the
society, the balance being retained
by private company owned by the
wife of Harrison Parker, the princi-
pal trustee of the COOPERATIVE Soci-
ETY. of America; therefore, be it
RESOLVED, By the Third National
Congress of the COOPERATIVE League,
that the public be warned that the
Cooperative Society of America is
not cooperative in any sense of the
word; that it is in fact positive
menace to the genuine co-operatives
of the country, and privately con
trolled, highly speculative promotion
scheme at best; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That copies of these
resolutions condemning the Co-Opera-
tive Society of America as spurious
cooperative be sent to the labor and
public press of the country, and to
the officials of the states where the
society is attempting to sell it's Sc
curities

PRICES AND PROFITS
JUMP

New York.-The American smelt-
ing and refining company has ad-
vanced lead prices a fraction of a
cent per pound. This trust recently
divided a bond issue of $7,500,O00,
bearing about 51a per cent interest
among insiders" In advertising
the bond issue, merely "as a matter
of record" the trust said:
During the past 1Oh years the
company has charged off to depre-
citation and depletion 1861 ,339 .82,
and has paid $77,259, ,244.35 in cash
dividends"

p. 0. SAVINGS DROP

Washington.-There has been
drop of more than Sal, 100000 since
1919 in postal savings deposits. Most
of the decrease has taken place within
the last few months.
When it is recalled that these de-
posits are always referred to as a
barometer of employment conditions,
the songs of labor shortage and the
need for more immigrants lose their
force.

the beggars and thieves have formed
unions which they are using for po'
litical purposes. The sanitary condi
ton In Foochow, the purely Chinese
section Of Hongkong, Is said to be de
plorable. as the street sweepers, garb-
age collectors and water carriers are
out to a man.
The seaman's strike here has had
tremendous effect all over the Far
East, as il has given the laborers con
fdence in their new guilds and stimii'
lated their desire for better living con
dtions. The seamen have been so
successful in forcing their demands
that they now talk of going into the
shipping business for themselves. The
men are being asked to subscribe ~

with which they are responding the
hackers OF the project expect soon to
have steamer running between here

EFFICIENT BRAKES
FOR AUTOMOBILES
REQUIRED BY LAW
Many Accidents Caused by Worn-out
or improperly Adjusted Brak-
ing Devices.

Inefficient or improper brake action
on automobiles Is constant menace
TO both the owner and to the general
public, Secretary of State Louis l.. EN-
mers0n declared today in discussing the
provisions Of the automobile laws, the
enforcement of which Is under his d.
rectiOn.
"The law provides" he said, that
every motor vehicle and motor bicycle
while In use on public highway shall
be provided with good and sufficient
brakes and also with bell, horn or
other signaling DEVICE This Is a wise
provision. Without proper brakes a
driver IL In constant danger Of col
lislon. He should not endanger his
own life in this way, and he certainly
has no right to endanger the lives OF
others.
at is important that every owner
of an automobile see that he has u
good quality of brake lining and that
1t Is properly installed. Frequent
tests for proper brake adjustment
should be made. The lining should be
kept free from oil and grease. Tests
should be made every thousand miles
or at least once Il month to make sure
that the braking power is equally di-
vided between the two rear wheels.
Inequality between the wheels often
causes skidding.
Experienced drivers save wear on
brake lining and often avoid skldding
by shutting Off the gasoline throttle
and leaving the engine engaged just
before ii Is desired to stop the car,
thus reducing braking with the brakes
to a minimum"
