Detroit TO GET
PLANT District
Automobile and Accessory
Plants May be Located at
Pontiac After Railway
Reduces Track Grade.

DETROIT, Observation-Disclosures of
a great Industrial center near Pontiac,
26 miles north of Detroit, in which
would be grouped two or more of the
larger Detroit automobile plants and
accessory factories from all parts o.
the country, is seen here as posi-
bility following announcement by the
Grand Trunk Railway that it is ready
to lower the grade Of its tracks along
Dequindre street, from jefferson av-
enue to Hale street, in Detroit, dis
tance Of about one and one-half miles
at cost of $4,000, 900.
The grade improvements, it is said
here, will drive the opening wedge for
what promises to be one of the largest
railway Improvement plans within re-
cent years.
Officials Of the railroad company,
the Detroit board Of commerce and GER
tain automobile companies here have
carried ON discussions for the last year
that included plan for providing Of an
interurban line between this city and
the proposed new industrial center so
that Detroit workmen might have fast
transportation to the point near Pom
tac. 1t Is declared decision as to ex-
pansion Of the plan has been awaiting
start on the Dequindre street project.
Due to high taxes certain automobile
companies here have expressed a de-
sire to leave the corporate limits Of
the city of Detroit and remove TO some
other point. Local capitalists have ac-
quired 1,0Oo-acre tract near Pontiac
as the site for a part Of the new in
dustrial project. 1t is said the work
Of moving one or more plants will be
considered as soon as transportation
facilities for the workmen are available.

senatorial rocks these hired intellects
will again assume their anti-labor
attitude and insist that "the rights of
the public are paramount"
The views OF unese h. is, be it
known, will contain no reference to
the duties of the public.
Privilege must depend on a warped
public opinion. 1t can not succeed
when the public understand a ques-
ton. The hand of privilege is never
seen in this infiaming of the public
mind. 1t is the business of the bark
ers and hired intellects to confuse the
people. This they do with their So

ceptive terms.
Their methods are shown on the
trade union question, on the railroad
question, on immigration, on child
labor and every other issue that chal-
lenges exploitation and greed.
Their trickery and disregard for
facts is once again shown by their
claim that a ship subsidy is identical
to money voted by the people to main
tain their roads and improve these

ROLE OF STRIKEBREAKER
ASSUMED BY FEDERAL COURTS WHEN THEY
REVERSE IMPORTANT DECISIONS WHICH
If PERMITTED TO STAND OUTLAW
ALL STRIKES
In Cases Involving Big Interests 1t is Held that Manu-
featuring is Not Commerce, But in Labor
Case 1t is Held Otherwise

Kansas City, Mo.-sIf the United
States supreme court sustains deci
sion by two federal courts against our
members every strike thereafter will
be an interference with interstate
commerce and employers can collect
damages" said w. E. Bryan, general
president of the United Leather Work
ers' International Union.
"The federal courts, from the su-
preme court down, have uniformly
held that manufacturing is not COM
merce," said President Bryan. "None
of these decisions were made in So
called labor cases. The decision
against the leather workers is a
labor case, and two federal courts
have reversed former decisions and
ruled that manufacturing is commerce.
"If sustained, the effect of these
decisions will be that workers must
be held to their task, as any stop
page of production by them means
interference with interstate COM
smerce, and is therefore unlawful
'.The decisions are the result of
strike of ST. Louis leather workers.
Their organized employers were
granted an injunction by Federal Dis
trict Judge Faris on the ground that
the strike made it impossible for em-
ployers to fill their orders, and that
the strike was, therefore, an inter
ference with interstate commerce.
Judge Faris then appointed mas
ter to determine and assess damages
against the individual members of the
Leather Workers Union
''The court of appeals upheld the
decision in divided opinion, though
attorneys for the unionists referred
to numerous supreme court decisions
that the making of goods and the
mining of coal are not commerce and
the production of articles intended
for interstate commerce is a matter
of local regulation.
'In minority opinion, Judge Stone
declared that the actual, logical, and
inevitable result of the decision will
be that every strike in a single fac
tory, will be within the Sherman anti
trust law and subject to federal juris-
diction, provided any appreciable
amount of it's product enters into in
terstate commerce.

and unfairly to favor certain inter-
ests. If any preference was shown
it should have been to some fairly
substantial independent concern, and
not to one of the greatest monopolies
in existence.
Had this field been leased at open,
competitive bidding, the bonuses re-
ceived would have been sufficient to
build storage and furnish the navy
with fuel oil for many years, greater
royalties would have been paid, and
all the proceeds thereof would have
been net to the government; but there
was no competition or chance for COM
petitive bidding in the leasing of this
immensely valuable property, and
none was desired by any of the par
ties who negotiated the contract.
1t is contended that the leases
were negotiated secretly in order not
to reveal storage locations. This de-
fense is a grasp at straw. 1t was
not necessary to the leasing of this
field at competitive bidding to adver-
tise the prospective locations of stor-
age tanks. If secrecy was desired or
could be maintained, the navy should
receive the oil at designated Atlantic
and Gulf coast points and transport
it to the secret locations itself. How
ever, secrecy has not been maintained,
because the twenty-seven points at
which the leases is required to deliver
oil has been published throughout the
land and is now matter of common
knowledge. If Teapot were left in
tact, the building of artificial storage
and the effort to keep the locations
there of a secret, would be unneces-
sary; and, at the same time, vast
quantity of oil always would be at
the immediate command of the navy.
The more the transaction is analyzed,
the more it appears to be clandes-
tine scheme of greedy plutocrats and
government officials who are wholly
unmindful of the public interests to
exploit possible means of national
defense.

is not for every ship owner, but for
the few.
The public is assured that these
rich will dribble benefactions down
to the common folk, but the latter no
longer accept this Santa Claus pic
ture of privilege and greed.
Privilege, of course, does not be-
lieve there is any similarity between
subsidizing private operations, run
for private, profit, and maintaining a
public utility for service to the people
Privilege knows different, but what
it knows and what it orders it's hoop
rollers to do are different propositions.
Privilege does not attempt to fool
itself. Its business is to fool others
Its life depends on deception and de-
ceit. 1t cannot accept truth and sur
vive.
To save itself it commands skilled
lawyers, educators, psychologists, OBJ
servers, investigators, a subservient
press, ballyhoos and camp followers
who are always found under the ban
ner of power and pelf.
This combination is now spreading
it's glad tidings that there is no differ
ence between ship subsidy and
building good roads.
The same trick reasoning was wit
messed when privilege jammed the
Cummins-Esch act through congress
amid a whirlwind of propaganda un-
equalled in this country.
The elements that would soften op-
position to the ship subsidy are the
same gentry that cheer for the "open
shop" and the American plan" and
''free and Independent workers" when
privilege launches a union-smashing
war.
These barkers for privilege can re-
peat backwards their parrot formulas
that "the union minimum wage puts
every worker on the same leveP' and
trade unionists oppose labor injunc-
tions. because they want to violate
law"

TEAPOT DOME OUTRAGE
PUT OVER IN SECRET TO CAUSE INVESTIGATION
THAT MAY PROVE OTHER THAN TEA
PARTY FOR SECRETARY FALL,
SAYS BELL
Millions That Government Should Have Go Into Standard
Oil Treasury Because of Shutting Out of
Competitive Bidding

BY international Labor News Service
Washington, d. C.-The congress
sional group which believes that the
United States was swindled out of
millions of dollars worth of oil in the
Teapot Dome oil grab are preparing
a thorough investigation that they
say will not be tea party for Sec
retary Fall, the chief sponsor for the
deal which is expected to net Standard
Oil millions of dollars.
Secretary Fall is going to have
difficulty maintaining his argument
that the deal was made with Stand
ard Oil, through Sinclair, because the
oil from the Wyoming field was being
drained by adjacent oil wells because
the operations of the Standard Oil
since the lease was made entirely dis
counted that statement.
Mr.. Bells article last week showed
that Secretary Fall was informed that
his excuse of drainage was without
foundation. This week Mr.. Bell dis
cusses the secrecy with which the
deal was effected and the failure to
provide for competitive bidding in the
opening up of the Wyoming oil lands.
By ROBERT C. BELL
formerly Special Assistant to the
Attorney General, in charge of with
drawn oil land matters, Wyoming
Apparently it is admitted that there
was no competitive bidding; but, it is
asserted that ''three or four other
companies" Gall that were considered
sufficiently equipped to carry out the
required conditions) were called in
and offered an opportunity to bid.
To our knowledge the names of these
'three of four other companies" have
not been announced, and we wonder
if they are members of the Standard
group. 1t is true that the Standard
companies have practical monopoly
of every branch of the oil industry
in this country and are able to meet
large obligations, but we are informed
this great field was leased to the
Mamoth Oil CO., a concern recently
organized by Sinclair and associates.
Surely there are responsible indie
pendent companies as able to carry
out the conditions required in the
lease as this new company, even
though it does have the support of
Standard Oil interests. The lease
provides for pipe line from the field
to some point near Kansas City, Mo-,
where it would connect with the Mid
Continent lines to the east, which
would probably cost 15,000000; and
undoubtedly it is this provision that
is supposed to disqualify all COM
panies except the three or four" ;"
In our opinion, this proposition is a
condition ostensibly imposed to elimi-
nate numerous responsible bidders

The record is entirely barren of
even suggestion that there existed
here any actual intent to effect inter
state commerce. said Judge Stone.
The sole purpose of this strike was
to benefit and strengthen the labor
unions here involved.
Nor is there a word of testimony
tending to show that the respondents
had any knowledge of or cared any
thing about whether the business of
complainants was state or interstate
in character. That consideration was
unimportant to their purpose
"Under this decision" continued
President Bryan, there will be no
need for industrial courts or anti
strike laws. In fact, the states will
lose jurisdiction over strikes, which
will pass to the control of the federal
judiciary. These courts will pass
Judgment on every strike and award
damages to any employer who can
not fulfill an order because of a strike.
The decisions, if upheld, will mean
that the judiciary has openly assumed
the role of strikebreaker."

When privilege is cornered it sub
stitutes plausible reasoning and hon
eyed words for logic and facts.
1t is cornered today Hence the
claim that its ship subsidy is similar
to people voting money for good
roads and inland waterways.
Roads and inland waterways are
owned and operated by the people for
public service and not for profit. All
people may use these public utilities,
just as they use the public schools,
Libraries, and municipal water plants.
The ship subsidy is financial aid by
the government to private business,
operated for private profit. This aid
