SKYsCRAPER BUILT ON STILLS
New York Architects Are Putting Up
Big Structure With Seemingly
Slender Supports.

A great, complicated skyscraper Is
being built In New York under unusual
conditions. directly above the railroad
tracks of busy terminal. The tracks
running beneath Its walls In some
places are double-decked, so that trains
pass on two levels through the base
ment of the building. The entire struc-
ture rests upon slender stills, extending
between the tracks down TO bedrock.
A unique method has been found for
isolating these uprights so that the
constant rumbling of heavy trains on
both levels causes not the slightest
vibration In the building above
This construction, including the dig.
ging for the foundation and the erec-
tion of the building Is being carried
! on without affecting the movement Of
trains beneath. The entire weight of
the skyscraper rests upon the sup
ports rising between the tracks, which
are spacel In the usual way. Although
capable Of supporting 20 or more
stories, these stills seem surprisingly
slender. Both track levels beneath
the building are remarkably free from
| obstructions, SO that engineers have q
clear view Of other tracks to either
side.
1t was at first believed that only
| structures of six or eight stories could
be safely supported on such founda-
tions. A series of tests, including the
| measurements Of vibration caused by
the passing Of trains. proved that
buildings could safely be raised to 20
stories on these supports. Excava-
tions for foundations have been car
ried down until the beams rest upon
solid rock. The whole operation has
been carried on without upsetting train
| schedules.
Each column supporting the building
Is completely isolated. It is not enough
to keep 1t from touching the founda-
tions on which the tracks lie. 1t also
must be protected by vibration mats
from the rock on which 1t rests, 80
that vibrations from passing trains
will not affect 1t.

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
Receiving Strong Opposi
ton From Farm Organi-
cations

Washington-"An emphatic pro-
test against this legislation" is the
attitude of the national board of farm
organizations toward the pending ship
subsidy BILL
The national board represents the
several associations of "dirt" farmers
throughout the country. They have
legislative headquarters in this city.
Opposition to the subsidy bill, which
was recorded at their semi-annual
conference, confirms the position
taken by the directors of the same
organization last July, when they
declared the ship subsidy bill "can
only end in disaster to the nation"
The farmers supported their posi-
tion by presenting these facts:
"Under the bill unprecedented and
unwarranted autocratic powers are
vested in the shipping board, as may
be gathered from the fact that it is
not required to make any financial
accounting to congress or the presi-
dent, while at the same time it is
permitted to dispose of government
owned ships at private sale without
competitive bidding.
"Ships costing several billions of
dollars can, and probably will be, sold
at 10 cents on the dollar, it is estimat-
ed. We shall lend over 100000 900
at 2 per cent interest to recondition
these ships when sold, and then pay
the owners in round numbers $780,
100000 in subsidies besides in the
next few years"
1t is significant that on more than
one occasion the legitimate farmers
of the country have taken this posi-
ton despite heroic attempts of treas
ury looters to convince the farmers
that a subsidy will aid agriculture.

FOOD CONSUMED

published in this city.
principle from whidh they will
'The unions must lay it down as
never deviate, save under compulsion,
that the value of the worker is deter
mined by the wealth that he creates
and not by the food that he consumes. !"
This labor publication says the new
basic wage, to be announced by the
government, is expected to be little
higher because the cost of living has
risen since the last rates were for
mula ted
Had the cost of living fallen, the
basic wage would have suffered a
further reduction" says the editor.
There are some workers, strange
to say, who think it is just that what
they get in return for their labor
should vary with the cost of living.
They actually fatter themselves that
the establishment of this principle in
our laws is something to their advan-
tage, that it marks a decided gain in
the ceaseless struggle which organ
lied labor carries on against the ex-
plotting class.
"If wages are to be tethered to
the cost of living-if they are to rise
and fall according to the huctuating
prices of necessary commodities, then
goodbye to the progress of the wage
earners!
''As long as such system obtains,
and is accepted as fair thing by
the workers, there can never be any
uplifting of their status. They will
remain just where they are, mere
adjuncts of the mraket Quotations,
content to be regulated to the prices
of bread and butter and meat"

VETS CHEER GOMPERS

New Orleans.-The Federationist,
official newspaper for numerous local
unions, prints this description of the
reception given President Gompers at
the convention of the American Lee
gion in this city:
"Mr Gompers, being the principal
speaker Tuesday, was held until the
noon hour, at which time Commander
MacNider introduced him to the con-
vention amid an uproar that was heard
several blocks. Never has any man
in the public eye been given a greater
reception than was accorded the bat
tle-scarred labor executive when he
was presented to the convention.
Over 1000 delegates and visitors
stood and cheered for 10 minutes. Mr..
Gompers was almost overcome by this
great outburst and expressed his ap-
probation in fitting words.
= Delegates to the convention made
it plain that they are solidly for the
things advocated by the A. F. of L.

DAUCHERTY
Defends His Injunction In
a Wild Political TRADE
at Canton

Canton, Ohio.-In a stump speech
of the regulation kind, Attorney
General Daugherty defended his labor
injunction at a political meeting in
this city. The following is a sample
of the bombast and crude declama-
tion by the nations first legal off,
cial:
with one bold challenge to con-
stitutional government, the strike
leaders, to all apparent purposes,
renounced the protection of govern
mental authority when they mutined
against decision which they declared
was construed to be unfavorable to
their cause.
''The nation was in the grip of civil
war. We had reached point where
loyal, intelligent Americans wonder
ed if organized government actually
existed"
The attorney general made the US
ual plea of constitution wreckers and
union smashers that II am a friend of
organized labor" He insisted that
union labor has no right to set up
rules in conflict with the constitution
This cheap, commonplace state
ment. which no one disagreeS with
is always intended to create the I'M
preston among dull-wits that organ
lied labor does adopt rules contrary
to law and the constitution.
The affdavits of alleged conspiracy
compiled by Jury-Fixing Burns, the
great detective" were summarized
by the attorney general in this smash
ing of straw men that would do cred,
it to any stage villain:
Gould government be expected te
remain supinely Indifferent when It's
authority was challenged and threat
ened by chaos as deadly as armed
strife itself? | say no, and every
thinking man with love for his coun'
try and his fellowmen will say no as
vehemently as | do"
The speaker showed cunning anc
craftiness worthy his high office
when he condemned those who "wouio
have us believe the injunction IS
modern device, a recent discovery"
The attorney general made no dis
tinction between the injunction pro
cess. which is centuries old, and the
labor Injunction, which is of recen
date. Organized labor is only insist
ing that the injunction process b'
used as it has been for centuries, bu
the attorney general evaded this fac
and would create the impression that
organized workers oppose the injunc
ton process as originally intended
that it shall never be used to punish
crime or interfere with personal lib
when the plaintiff has other legal re
erty, and that it shall never be uset
course
The speech will undoubtedly stant
as a record for untruths, intolerance
and superficial statements by an at
torney general of the United State:
who secured labor injunction t.
break a strike and maintain the anti
union shop, but who now says h'
secured the injunction to proven
civil war.
