MINGOIZING THE
 COAL FIELDS

Baltimore, Aug. Ave hardly think that MT. Harding intends to Mingoize the whole of the central competitive feld," says the Evening Sun in a leading editorial on the Presidents move to open the mines.
 "The President could doubtless order the mines opened, and then see that there were sufficient soldiers and machine guns and barbed wire en- tanglements and all the rest of it to keep the strikers cowed. Then, if the operators could find the workers, and it were possible to keep them com tented and working, we might con ceivably get coal.
 we submit that such course, which Is apparently that which is pro posed to MT. Harding and even press ed upon him, does not bear the ear marks of very profound statesman ship.
 We should have learned by this time that battles settle very little. And that if they settle one question, they open up others vastly greater and more dangerous.
 "Mingo county has had martial law longer than we like to remember, and Mingo county is now one of the sore spots of the country.
 Before adopting the advice of the ever-present and ever-tempting fire eaters, let Mr. Harding look again at Mingo and ask himself what has been accomplished there"

Education Urged
 By Minnesota State
 Federation of Labor

Crookston, Minn., Aug 4.-Educa- tional demands featured the 10th an- nual convention of the Minnesota State Federation of Labor in this city Among the resolutions adopted were:
 Instructing officers and delegates to endeavor to have school boards and school authoriteis adopt as part of the school curriculum courses of study in government and political and social institutions
 Providing for the establishment of a committee on education in all cen tral bodies to bring the labor move ment into closer touch with the pub lie schools.
 Calling on union men and women to assist in the education of the young people along trade union lines and particularly the sons and daughters of organized labor.
 The convention also called atten- ton to the growing menace due to the usurpation of the supreme court and urged activity to amend the consti- tuition to restrict the powers of the court.

The Facts.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The above statement by the New York Times was forwarded to Dennis Lane, sec retary-trasurer of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen, by Frank Morrison, secretary of the A. F. of L. Replying to the A. F. of L. official, Secretary Lane said:
 "The packers company union is composed of three units, as for ex- ample: Ten representatives of the employees (presumably to have been chosen by the employes). These comprise one unit.
 "Ten to represent the management Gas the packers term to choose it.) These 10 are chosen by the manage ment and usually is composed of superintendents, foremen, time-keep- CTS, etc. These comprise the second unit.
 "The third unit is the president of the company.
 "All differences are originally put to the first two units mentioned at a joint session, and the unit rule pre- vails when voting. So you see there could be as many as four in the em- ployes' unit that had been members

CANADIAN RAILROADS TO APPLY U. s. LABOR BOARD WAGE SLASH
 TO COERCE THE WORKERS THERE

Progressives have eight in the field Labor candidates number 20, repre- senting a variety of factions. Labor's weakness lies in the con- fict between varying shades of opin- ion, which is strikingly illustrated in the city of Winnipeg, where I3 can didates are slated for 10 seats. That means that those of radical tenden- cies are opposing their fellows of more conservative opinion who desire to proceed along constitutional lines of progress. Fundamentally, the ideals and aspirations of the two ex- tremes are similar, but there Is a wide diversity of view concerning the method of attaining these ends.
 Tax Reductions Granted.
 Comparatively little legislation di- rectly affecting labor came before parliament at this session, but i'm portant changes were made in the in come tax, as a result of joint repre- sentations by brotherhood officials and President Tom Moore, of the Dominion Trades and Labor Con- gross. These changes will benefit la bor generally and railway men in par ticular.
 The amount of exemption for de- pendent children was increased from $2oo to $500.
 Unmarried men having a dependent parent, grandparent, daughter, or sis ter, son or brother under 2I are given an exemption of $2,ooo, which before applied only to married men.
 Railroad workers make an import ant gain in being granted exemption from taxation of travelling expenses, including meals and lodging, legiti- mately incurred while on duty away from home, provided a proper record of such expense is kept.

HARTFORD BARBOYS GIVE UP CHARTER,
 TALK OLD DAYS
Once Powerful Union Members Now Scattered in Other
 Lines.

Hartford, July 2S S.-The weather was decidedly "wet" Sunday evening and probably that is why several former members of the once power full Bartenders' Union, meeting in formally in the conference room at the Central Labor Union fell into discussion of the days of long ago. those days three years back when the Bartenders' Union was one of the most powerful labor organizations in Hartford. And although the fact has never been announced, that once aff1uent union has passed into the great beyond from which there is no return.
 The books, charter and equipment of the Hartford Bartenders' Union now repose in Cincinnati, at the na- tional headquarters of the Bartenders' Union-perhaps these relics of other days are kept on ice, to permanently preserve the memory of pre-Volstead days.
 The Bartenders' Union is now per manently dissolved. In July, 1919, there were about 25o members. In the spring of this year the number had dwindled to less than 30. The once large attendance at the Sunday afternoon meetings at C. L. U. hall had become thing of the past, even the officers did not attend meetings and only an occasional member cross ed the threshold to recall days when the union men practiced at the bar.
 Tom Foley, a familiar figure at Harry Bonds old Main street res taurant, was the last president of the union. Today he is in the gasoline filling station business, and finding it a far more profitable one than his occupation when the drivers of motor cars used Bonds as a filling station of another sort Frank J. Madden, was secretary-treasurer of the union, has for several years been an employe of local jewelry firm; in 1920 he was the labor party candidate for mayor.
 Several of the other former dis pensers of 'wet" goods are now work ing in dry goods stores, couple more are dispensing soda; Goodchild's once popular cafe on Asylum street is now chop suey house and restaur- ant, although the old bar still re- mains.
 Incidentally, one veteran officer ot the Bartenders' Union was authority for the statement that not one of the bartenders lost through prohibition going into effect, as without excep- ton they readily secured other jobs, many of them more remunerative. The bartenders always maintained that the cafe owners were far from liberal employers and in 1918 strike of the bartenders, who then claimed they were grossly underpaid, was mar row1y averted in Hartford.

of the union, and even though their individual vote would be against a proposal, If the other six voted with the unit that represents the manage ment, 1t would be a vote in favor of the management and declared unani- nous, and the individual vote of the four union men would be lost and not heard of, because the unit they were {. part of would be recorded as being favorable to the matter in question, even though the matter in question be a clear-cut anti-union proposition.
 ''In case units No. I and No. 2, which purport to represent the em- ployes and management, fail to vote unanimously on any question, 1t may then be put to the president of the company for a decision.
 "The packers were very careful to see to 1t that they got a few mem bers of the union identified with their company representation plan. But for the most part the selection of the Representatives was brought about through the recommendation of the plant superintendent, after con ference with the division superinten- dents and foremen.
 "The sum and substance of the whole proposition was cut and dried program by which they could hand-pick few dupes that would pretend to represent the sentiments of the employees.
 But the, workers in this industry have no one to blame for their pre- dicament but themselves, as they were in a positoin to get for them- selves most anything reasonable un- til they fell for the propaganda cir culated by the packers through their emissaries that weaned the workers away from their own organization. When the packers felt satisfied that the propagandists had accomplished their purpose, then they launched their company 'union'"

Greece Threatens the Balance.

While every day that passes without
a break of war in the near east is a
gain toward ultimate peace and a set
tlement without conaict, the situation
,,.at the Dardanellss remains extremely
1, critical. Greece has complicated the
matter gravely by announcing deter

Turks cross the straits and attempt
occupation. The remnants of the de.
feated army Of Asia Minor fsape been
reorganized and reservists have been

ever, has been so seriously shattered
that successful campaign ON the Eu-

with the Turks, if they should succeed
in crossing the straits, even stronger
sthan at the moment Of their lately sue

The Wet Champion.

Bourke Cochran will be a member OF
the next Congress. He has just been
renominated in a district safely demo.
cratic.
Mr.. Cochran is q wet. At San Fran
-,.cisco two years ago he was the wet
leader on the floor Of the democratic
national convention, and made the
principal speech in support of the wet
cause. Mr.. Bryan appeared for the
O. drys. -.
.ay The result was draw. The cOnven-
ton practically sidestepped the issue.
The next Congress, no matter its
complexion, will be asked to modify
the Volstead act in the interests of
light wines and beer. In the House
rs. Mr.. Cochran will probably lead the
SO movement. He is an orator Of power,
and, hailing from New York, where
,7f the vets are strong will command at
.;s- tention.
80 Who will lead the drys? Mr.. Bryan
!! ! will not be present-that is, not pres
4cent as a member of the House. He
may make visit to Washington when
<the battle begins, and give counsel to
.Lthe drys in action in the House. He
-i9 keeps his eye on the gun, and when
.Sfever a question in which he is inter
: :. ested comes up in Congress he comes
to town and wants to know how
about 1t.
SAf But the drys will need an alert and
resourceful man on the floor OF the
House. Mr.. Volstead will probably be
on hand-he is q candidate for re-
.s-election-but it is suggested that he
should have an 'oratorical lieutenant to
meet Mr.. Cockran's onslaughts. Who
would best fill the bill?
