Communists fired on the Fascist
train and bullets whistled above
MIR. Morgan's car which. however,
was not hit.
Fascist officers stopped the flu
sillade.
The fancies OF the thousands OF
young Fascist who are still un-
mObilized have turned to lighter
things and they have started chas-
inc Communist deputies. shaving
their pates when caught and paint
ing the national colOrs on them.
The first sought was Signor Bonn
bacci. who is called ltaly's Lenin.
He escaped. but the Fascist caught
his secretary, who sported a lux
urious forest on his chin. That
dis. .ppeared and likewise all the
hair on his head. Then his bald
pate was painted with red, white
and green stripes.

Gompers Sees Chicago and
Alton Plea as Wedge
For Other Roads.
ASKS SCRAPPING
OF RAIL BOARD
Brotherhoods Fight Move
Though Pacts Bind IS
Per Cent of Lines.

The move yesterday of the Chi
cago and Alton road to lengthen the
work day of trainmen is a fore
runner of similar requests by other
roads. according to Samuel Gompers.
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor.
Gompers professed to view the
move as part Of the great union
hating drive of organized predatory
power" and issued an announcement
demanding that the Railroad Labor
Board be scrapped. He said:
Gompers Raps Board.
That the Chicago and Alton road
should ask the Railroad Labor Board
to authorize lengthening of the work
day to ten hours for train service
and yard men and should ask for
abolition of time and a half for over
time is not startling news.
why should not the railroads ask
for whatever they want, after the
amazing encouragement they have
had from the august assemblage pre-
sided over by Judge Hooper?
The Alton. IT is said. was selected
to make these brazen requests be-
cause It is in the hands of a re-
ceiver. Then other roads, not SO
situated. will ask the same things.
A pretty game. indeed,
Asks Its ScrappinE.
Surely II is time the Railroad
Labor Board was scrapped.
We shall see what the board will
do with this outrageous request, a
continuance. clearly. OF the great
union hating drive of organized
predatory power. But we wait
with little hope of justice or reason
The leopard cannot change its spots
and the Railroad Labor Board is not
likely to change the character Of
Its decisions .z-~--

CUSTOMS RECEIPTS
REGISTER INCREASE

Customs receipts during October
amounted to -si0135. .S35. ON this
basis r. W. Camp. chief of customs.
said he believed that there is little
doubt but that customs receipts for
1923 will amount to s445.000.0o0 as
against an estimate of s350,0oo, 900.
There have been a few months
when receipts exceeded $4,000. 600"
said Mr.. Camp. Heretofore it has
been during a period just in advance
of the enactment of the tariff law
when imports were abnormally large.
October receipts represent imports
since the new tariff law became
effective September 81. Figures indi-
