Pennsylvania Shops
Restore Seniority
(Rv Federated Pressl

Dennison, Ohio-Pennsylvania rail-
road officials at the local repair jobs
confess they cannot get along without
the striking shopmen, and are using
bait to lure the men back to work.
Not long ago the Pennsy was boasting
that seniority and pension rights
would never be restored to strikers.
But propaganda to fool the public is
one thing and the necessity of getting
out repair work is another. The
strikebreakers, of which the road is 80
proud in print, cannot do the Job.
So the bosses at the shops here have
swallowed their pride and posted no
tices that seniority and pension rights
will be restored to all men who return
to work.

Organized Bakers
Resist Bread Trust

Chicago-The Bakers international
union of America again reminds or
ganized labor and sympathizers that
it's fight against the Ward baking
company is still on.
On May / last this concern declared
for the anti-union shop. The union
lists refuse to accept Individual bar
gaining, with increased hours, less
wages and working conditions that
are lowered as unionism disappears.
''In 1922 the Ward baking COM
pany realized a profit of over ST.
000,000," the unionists say. "Their
slogan for 1923 is double that amount
to be squeezed out of the workers and
bread consumers"

Police Chief Caught
In Booze Laden Auto
(By Federated Press)

Los Angeles-Former Chief Of Po-
lice Louis D. Oaks, who told Upton
Sinclair to "cut out that constitution
stuff" evidently wasn't very strong
on the constitution for his personal
use either. At a hearing here of a
suspendde police captain, an affidavit
was introduced showing that Oaks had
been arrested at San Francisco while
he. was still chief of police of Los An
ge1es, and that at the time "Oaks was
in the rear seat of an automobile,
while half gallon of whisky was in
the front seat"

"OJJICK TRIGGER" COPS ARE
CALLED DOWN

Chief of Police French of Colum-
bus, has warned his officers to cut
out the dangerous practice of indis-
criminate shooting at parties who
fail to halt and submit to arrest at
the word of command. 1t is too dan
gerous custom, as the recent killing
of young boy demonstrated.
But things are different around this
"Spotless Town." Here it is alleged
our city cops are taken from their re-
gular beats and sent out into the
jungles miles away, there to shoot
an automobile full of holes and risk
killing two innocent persons just be-
cause these followers of Sherlock
Holmes imagined it remotely pos
sible the suspects, who escaped death
by a hairs breadth, might be booze
runners; and the perpetrators OF the
outrage, who were bound over to the
grand jury on the charge OF shooting
with intent to kill, are still continued
on duty, not having even been repri-
manded, much less suspended, until
their guilt or innoncence should have
been established.
Here is what the Columbus Dis
patch has to say about it in it's issue
of September 3:
"Police Chief French's warning to
police officers who are too "quick on
the trigger" is timely and his attitude
wisely taken. Unless the practice is
checked the resort to weapons may
become a dangerous practice. No one

CommendatiOn and Criticism of Our
Public Servants Bestowed as
Deemed Just BY Leaders
Hired Man
THE "HIRED MANS" IDEA

During his travels about town the
"Hired Man" often "listens in" where
discussions of every conceivable char
acter are in progress, and often the
arguments wax hot and heavy.
For some time past Kluxism, in it's
several phases, has been a frequent
and favorite topic. 1t has it's cham
pions and it's enemies; but the "Hired
Man" takes no sides on this question,
as he has many valued friends on
either side of the fence. He believes
in fair play, however, and in the in
alienable right of every man, white,
black, red or yellow, to identify him
self with any lawful body of what
soever nature, be it church, syna-
gogue, chapel, lodge, fraternal So
ciety, or any of the thousand and one
organizations formed for mutual as
sistance, protection and benefit.
But unfortunately this recently
formed and rapidly growing body has
been the cause of discord and dissen-
ton among those who heretofore had
r been lifelong friends and neighbors,
men who work shoulder to shoulder at
the same bench or on adjoining ma
chimes; yes, even among the boys who
shared the same dugout and drank
from the same canteen on Flanders
bloody field, has the question of re-
ligion caused i'll feelings which may
never be healed.
When the Salvation Army, the
Knights of Columbus and the Y. M.
C. A. dispensed aid, comfort and re-
lief to the boys across the sea in
their time of need,, the question of
race, creed or color never for an in
slant influenced or controlled the
hand ready at all times, day or night,
to aid or succor them. Then why
should these same men permit ques-
ton, which after all pertains only to
their own personal future welfare in
the world to come, creep in and dis
rupt the brotherly feeling which has
so long existed?
All of us, with perhaps a few re-
gretable exceptions, believe in a
future life, and have hopes of being
permitted to enter into the promised
place of joy and happiness. 1t is our
own personal business to select such
means of as we choose and deem best
to accomplish that end, and the choice
of one man should not excite the
hatred and persecution of any other
man.
At the last great day every tub will
have to stand on it's own bottom, and
we shall all be judged and disposed of
according to our life and actions while
on earth. Life is too short to spend
that time in quarreling and pickering
with our neighbor and debating to
him what creed or belief he shall ad-
here to in order to secure everlasting
bliss. Let him select and follow his
own choice without let or hindrance.

Confident that change in the ma
tional administration will bring no
developments that will require his
presence in this country, Senator
Robert M. La Toilette has decided to
lengthen his stay abroad. His office
in Washington has been notified that
he will return on October 20, instead
of October 9, the date originally set
for his arrival from abroad.
Friends and admirers of the Wis
consin senator expect to arrange
great homecoming demonstration for
him when he lands in New York. 1t
is expected that he will deliver there
the first of number of speeches that
he intends making before Congress
cOnvenes.
Chicago, Kansas City, Milwaukee
and perhaps a few other important
centers will have the rare opportunity
of hearing this gifted and courageous
progressive expound his theory OF
what should be done to relieve the
acute agricultural distress prevailing
throughout the country and also an
outline of legislative measures, that
will be supported by Progressives IN
the next Congress.
To Plan for 1924 Campaign
Recognized as the logical leader OF
progressivism in the nation as we'll as
in Congress-, Senator La Toilette is
expected to lay the foundation for the
campaign that will be waged next
year by forward-looking citizens.
1t is known in Washington that the
Senator has been carefully studying
tn erailroad law, farmers relief, eco
nomic justice for workers, a more
equitable distribution of taxation, the
curtailment of the veto power usurped
by the United States Supreme Court
and others of equal Importance that
will constitute the major planks IN
the progressive platform OF next
year. :,
Each of these questions will be dealt
with in the Senator's speeches in the
forceful and comprehensive manner
that characterizes all his platform
utterances.
Progressives Will Confer
The stormiest session of Congress
since the famous insurgent session OF
the Taft administration is expected
next winter. When President Coolidge
goes before a joint session of the
Senate and House to submit his re-
concentrations he will face the Pro-
gressive groups program already
completed and in operation.

Rural Mail Delivery Carrier Born Without Legs, But Has Had Route for 20 Years.


 for % Years.
 Washington, Jan. 12.-Natural ham dicaps are no obstacle to many people and the most shining example is that of E. A. Jones of Burlington, Mo-, who, born without legs. has driven a rural mali delivery route of that town for twenty years and never com plained.
 Jones' route was standard length one of 25.5 miles out of Burlington, and since 1901, when he was appoint cd, he has missed only four days from the job. and those because of illness.
 So interested were post office de- partment officials, who only recently had his case called to their attention. that Assistant Postmaster General Billany wrote him letter of con- graduation for his efficient service performed in spite of physical de- feet that we'll might have discouraged a person of less fortunate tempera- ment, and with less determination to succeed in life" Before becoming a letter carrier, Jones was a farmer.
 Tt seems to me-" Mir. Billany wrote Mir. Jones, that your success may be not only interesting to all carriers, but an inspiration to any one who may feel that lie is laborine under unusual or insuperable diff cuties and an encouragement to them to press on in the performance of duties which choice or circum- stances may require of him"
