Insurgent Leader
 Will Head Miners

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, July 27.-Wil- liam J. Brennan, president of District No. I, United Mine Workers of America, and conservative leader of forces in the upper anthracite field, practically has abandoned all inten- ton of contesting the election of Ri- naldo Cappellini, insurgent leader, who was elected to the district presi- dency by a majority of $500 votes.
 Brennan welcomed the dove of peace at the biennial convention of the district It was evident to him that he lacked the votes to override the insurgent, the Cappellini forces being greatly in the majority. But there was another consideration and that was the desire of John L. .ewis international president, to stop the miners ranks free of internal strife at this time
 Brennon planned to attack Cappe1- lini's election on the floor of the con vention on the ground that under the constitution of the organization he was ineligible to office Brennan busted him as district organizer some months back, and Cappel1ini retailated by running for the presidency and de- feating Brennan.

PITHESS PUBLICITY
 MADE GARY SQUIRM

Washington, July 27.-Bombard- ment of the steel trusts I2-hour day continues, and Judge Gary is squirm- ing He now says "within six week." start will be made to abolish the long work day.
 The judges promise IS as indefinite as former pledges, but they indicate that the forces 9afrayed against him have put him on the defensive to greater degree than ever before.
 The steel barons are taking no chances with the organizing campaign being conducted in this industry by trade unionists These employers know that their 4o-cent rate for so- called common" labor can only be maintained under, anti-union condi- tions While the steel barons and their newspapers assure the public that steel employees 'are not inter ested in trade unionis," this gesture is for publicity purposes. It is on par with Judge Gary's claim that steel employees demand the I2-hour day.
 Other. forces that are bombarding the steel trust are church men and civic organizations that insist on the shorter workday, and civil engineers who declare that the eight-hour day Is practical.
 The steel market is another factor that is operating against Judge Gary. At the present time the industry has taken decided slump, although Judge Gary continues to talk about addi- tional workers being necessary be- fore the eight-hour day Is established. The steel slump IS natural. All production records wer broken dur ing the second quarter of the year. When the steel barons were bemoan- ing a labor shortage" the mills were producing at the rate of 5o,ooo,ooo tons a year. Nothing like this was ever dreamed of before, even during war times.
 With 1essening of a demand for steel, tn trade union organizing cam paign, the claim of engineers that an eight-hour day is practical, and the protests of church men and civic or ganizations, Judge Gary Is facing an unexpected situation. A few years ago this opposition could be ignored, but this is impossible today and the judge is doing the next best thing attempting to appease an increasing public opinion by vague promises.

as it rushes down the chute, is broken in the crushing machines, or sorted in the shakers. Black coal dust is every where, covering the windows and fill ing the lungs of the workers. The slate IS sharp, so that the slate pick CTS often cut or bruise their hands; the coal is, carried down the chute in water, and this means sore and swol- len hands for the pickers. The first few weeks after the boy begins work, his fingers bleed almost continuously and are called red-tops by the other boys"
 Two Million Sub-Citizens.
 That's the kind of coal you and I burn in our furnaces. It IS anthra- cite. The boys who pick out the bad stuff, the slate, for you and me work on the average eight hours day at 1t. A few work as much as oo hours week. There Is more money in 1t for them if they are big and can lie about their age, defeat the I6-year- old law and work underground. But none of them ever amount to much. They are illiterate in many cases. We can't expect much of them as citizens, even less, perhaps, as individuals.
 This mine job is perhaps the worst thing for children there can be-espe- cially because in. that industry home conditions are so frightfully bad. One of the houses in which families live in that district is tenement, so ugly, so crowded, so animal, that 1t is known locally as The Incubator" The whole condition is an example, though an especially had one, of the way we are treating children in the United States in the prosperous year of 1923. The last figures show that over seven thousand of them, who are under I6 years of age, are engaged in mining in the United States
 We have not gone far yet; we have not seen all there is to see, for we have discussed only mills and mines, two of the worst things and yet not the greatest. There are over a mill lion children at regular work today It is thing which the minority is putting over on the majority. We know Congress is against it. for i'm stance, because it has passed two na- tional child-1abor laws. But both were thrown out by the Supreme Court, bag and baggage. Conditions are getting worse again. Those laws did some good, but it is amazing how the situation has gone back since they were killed.
 Doesn't 1t sort of turn your stom- ach? It does mine.

STEEL RECORD SMASHED;
 NO LABOR SHORTAGE

Pittsburgh, Pa. July 27.-Records for the first half of 1923 show that the production of steel ingots is about 23,5oo,o ,ooo gross tons. This is tn greatest production for any con secutive six months in the industry's history, and was made at time when Garyism was screaming labor short age"
The Connecticut labor news., 1923-07-27

The figures excel wartime produc- ton, when all records were broken up to that time. The new record shows how reliable have been the claims of those who would lessen i'm migration restriction not because of labor shortage, but to lower wages through a surplus of workers.

BETTER PROTECTION
FOR SUBURBS SOON
New Police Booths to Be Erected
in Anacostia and Benning;
Four in Use Successful.

Better police protection for Ana
costa and Benning sections is being
planned by Maj. Sullivan through the
establishment of two more telephone
booth stations. One will be located
at Anacostia and Good Hope roads
and the other will be at the Benning
road viaduct
Four of these booths have been in
operation for a year on other main
arteries of travel and have worked
well, in the opinion of Maj. Sullivan
and Commissioner Oyster.
One policeman remains constantly
in the booth. while partner patrols
the surrounding territory on motor
cycle, keeping in touch with the
booth at frequent intervals.
These booths are located in outly-
ing suburbs. where the regular pa
trolmen have extensive beats to
cover. If a resident needs a police
man in a hurry and calls headquar-
ters the message is Immediately
transmitted to the neighborhood
booth.
In many cases a minute or two is
the deciding factor in responding to
a call for help. and these booths
make possible prompt response to
