Demonstration Staged For Strikers
BIG PARADE TO BE HELD NEXT WEEK FOR
STRIKING SHOPMEN-ALL LABOR
UNIONS WILL PARTICIPATE
WALL STREETS BLACK FLAG
RAISED IN RAILROAD STRIKE

New York, Aug 5.In rejecting settlement proposed by
the president railroad executives raised the weknovn black
flag of Wall street against the peoples welfare
When the strike started these executives insisted that the
government States challenged
fight between the and the strikers Now when
the president speaking for the government
posa the executives change front and raise the pirates emblem
The presidents proposal is follows
First: Railway managers and wOrkmen to
to recognize he validity Of all decisions Of the
railroad labor board and to faithfully carry such
decisions contemplated by the law.
Second: The carriers will withdraw all lawsuits
growing out of the strike, and railroad labor board
decisions which have been involved in the strike may
be taken in the exercise of recognized rights by either
party to the railroad labor board for rehearing
Third All employees strike to be returned
to work and their former positions with seniority
and other rights unimpared. The representatives of
the carriers and the representatives the organizations
especially that there will be discrimination by
either party against the employees who did strike
The make great ado about the third section of
the proposed settlement which they insist does
their strikebreakers.
The Associated Press correspondent from Washington gave
this semofca explanation of the position on
that subject:
Cabinet members and associates of the president
have sharply emphasized their OF the Seniority
issue and that taken by the railroad executives as ex
pressed in public statements. Public statements of rail
road heads that the granting of the strikers demand
for return of full seniority rights necessitate
the discharge of of thousands efficient work
hired to take their places fatly denied in
informal discussions with newspaper correspondents
said to be exaggerated, and otherwise stamped as un
reliable 1t has been further represented in some gov
ernment quarters that such as have been hired
would not generally be of character and capacitv
which would make them suitable as permanent
employees
Opposition to the presidents plan is led by handful of
eastern These de hards represent high financial
and antinon interests that powerful enough to crack the
whip over every manager.

chat the compounds have been con-
sidered inimical to public welfare
by large portion of the people of
this country"
He pointed out that thirty-three
states had adopted standards TOR
condensed or evaporated milk; that
the manufacture and sale of filled
milk had been absolutely prohibited
in New Jersey, New York and Wis
consin: that five other states had
prescribed standards for condensed
or evaporated milk that in effect
prohibit filled milk; and that three
states had passed laws which permit

Justice Crownhart found an even
more emphatic expression OF the peo-
pies wishes in the Voigt Filled Milk
Bill now before congress which had
passed the house $50 to 40.
Exact Imitation"
"The compounds" he said, "are
in exact imitation of the genuine
evaporated milk. They are produced
and sold by the manufactur cheaper
than the genuine They are suscep-
tible of being sold to the public for
the genuine at the same price. They
are therefore capable of being used
for fraudulent purposes and to de-
ceive purchasers"
"If used as a substitute for milk,
the public health may be impaired,
not because the compounds are in
themselves deleterious, but because
they lack in certain food elements
essential to well balanced dietary" "
The justice showed himself mas
ter of sarcasm in quoting the ad-
vertisements of cocoanut Oil COM

and nutritious new milk product" E"
prepared in the rich dairying dis
ricts of Indiana and Wisconsin" j."
"animal fats extracted and then en-
riched with sweet edible, highly re-
fined cocoanut oil"
"Other advertisements, Justice
Crownhart declared, "are equally
well calculated to convey the idea
to the public that pure, fresh cows
milk from Wisconsin has been en-
riched and improved by the injec-
ton of sweet, edible, highly refined
cocoanut fat"
State Can Protect Industries.
Justice Crownhart maintained that
the power of the state could be ex-
ercised for the prosperity and for the
"preservation of a great industry
of the state against injury in mar
kets outside" He referred to Flori-
das winning fight to defend her

has frequently referred to what he
accomplished for the prosecution in
the trial of Thomas Mooney, and in
this connection affiant AYERS that it
is true that the defendant was the
foreman of the jury which tried and
convicted Thomas Mooney.
"That Edward A. Cunha, who was
at the time of the trial of said
Mooney case, assistant district at
torney, was actively engaged and
took leading part in the prosecu-
tion of the case.
"That during the trial and while
the defendant was a foreman OF
said jury and in violation of his
oath as a juror and in violation of
his duty to the State of California
as a juror, he and the said district
attorney held frequent conferences at
the home of affiant and the de-
fendant.
Evidence Discussed.
THAT at these conferences the evil
dence submitted to the jury was
discussed and commented upon and
Cunha was told by the defendant the
effect that the evidence was having
upon the jury, and MacNevin point
ed out to Cunha what effect his
method and manner of conducting
the trial was having upon the jury.
That Cunha came to the home Of
MacNevin at night in a closed cab
and frequently remained until long
into the night discussing the Mooney
case with MacNevin.
t,io o1 Of a
Mooney case MacNevin frequently
took others of the Mooney jurors to
lunch and entertained them and per
suaded them to the belief that
Mooney was guilty, and as fast as
he succeeded in winning over any of
the jurors he reported the matter to
Cunha.
"That MacNevin has frequently
said to the affiant, that the convic-
ton of Mooney was brought about
through the action and by the in
strumentality and through the. in
fluence of Mac Nevin upon the jury
"That owing to the accomplish
ments of MacNevin in the conviction
he has entrenched himself and made
friends of many large interests, per
sons, firms and corporations who
were desirous of convicting Mooney
and that affiant believes that Mae
Nevin will use and is using the said
friends and the said influence in
carrying out the plans and schemes
herein set forth for the purpose of
preventing and intimidating this
plaintiff from proceeding with the
trial of this case and for the further
purpose of forcing her to a settle
ment satisfactory to MacNevin.'

Mooney jury, held nightly meetings
with Edward Cunha, one of Flick

oath as a juror to hold no inter

these meetings her husband related

mony upon the jury and received
instructions from Cunha as to how to

Supreme Court Rules
Against "Hebe" and
Other Compounds

By legislation and court decisions
the people are winning the fight
against all so-called milk COM
compounds" The decision in Wis
consin supreme court. July 20, in
the now celebrated "Hebe" case
brought by the Carnation Milk Prod
ucts and the Hebe Company, upheld
the state law forbidding the manu-
facture and sale of the compounds
of skinned milk and vegetable oil.
The Carnation Milk Products COM
pany, plaintiff in the case, had
sought to enjoin j. @. Emery, dairy
and food commissioner, from enforc-
ing the law as against their product
known as "Hebe."
This much advertised compound,
which the court found to be similar
in taste, odor, appearance, consist
ency and manner of packing to evap-
GRATED milk. has been manufactured
by the Carnation Company and sold
to it's subsidiary, The Hebe Company
for five years. 1t has been adver-
tised by certain dealers in the news
papers of Wisconsin as milk" or
compound of milk; and has been
sold by a number of retailers in
Wisconsin as "milk" or "evaporated
milk"
This and other compounds are
shipped out of the state and adver-
tised and sold by many dealers in
other states as substitutes for milk.
Labels on the cans of some of the
compounds suggest that this product
is practically equivalent to or better
than genuine evaporated milk
The supreme court based the right
of Wisconsin to outlaw "Hebe" and
other milk compounds on the police
power of the state, and declared the
law valid for three reasons:
l. Because the law is intended to
prevent fraud and deception.
2. Because it protects public
health and welfare.
3. Because it promotes the gen
eral prosperity by preserving great
industry of the state.
Fat-SOluble Vitamn Deficient
SKINNED milk is all right in its
place, it seems, and cocoanut oil all
right in its place, but the mixture
lacks the food value of whole milk.
The latest Investigations of Prof. H.
Steenbeck of the University of Wis
consin prove that when milk is skim
med by the commercial separator
only one-tenth of the fat-soluble Wit
amin is left in the skim milk. Co.
coanut oil has none of this necessary Y
element for child growth.
Justice Charles H. Crownhart, who
wrote the decision and the accom-
panying statement of fact, pointed
out that the history of legislation re-
lating to filled milk was most per-
