DUNLAP TO RETIRE

Senator Henry NJ. Dunlap is to re-
tire from the state senate at the close
Of his present term, is the word he
has given out following the third
consecutive defeat of his legislative
masterpiece, the "cossack" bill.
The senator, curing his long service
in the senate, has been connected with
some very meritorious legislation.
His record has probably been as clear
as that of the average politician, but
his connection with big biz has left
a smear upon his name that will not
be soon forgotten by those connected
with organized labor, and which was
the cause of the inglorious defeat that
is said to have caused his determine
ton to retire.

LABOR-BAITERS
CAN NOT WHIP A
UNION LIKE THIS

In the April issue of the Interna-
tional Typographical Journal, Presi-
dent John Mcfarland reports that
the number Of commercial printers
now on strike for the 44-hour week is
1904, as against 4,1l1 the previous
month. In other words the fight for
the shorter week is practically won.
Since the strike was inaugurated
in the book and job shops on May /,
1921, to enforce an agreement with
the employers, the receipts from
strike assessments, paid on a percen-
tage of wage basis by those members
working, was 14,3S3, $50, and the ex-
pense of the strike Sl3,64l ,265. No
set of employers, backed by all the
banks, chambers of commerce. and
rotary clubs, could whip such a labor
organization.

GARY AND CHEAP LABOR

y pDNIE IAN AMI 1IEAi lADoh
Judge Gary does not like the immi-
grafton law. He says it is ne Of the
worst things this country has ever
done for itself economically.
This statement was made when the
steel trust is smashing all production
and profits records. Yet Judge Gary
wants cheaper labor He has been
forced to raise wages from 36 TO 40
cents an hour for unskilled labor, but
that is too expensive. He wants to
tap the vast reservoir in southeastern
Europe which contains the cheapest
white labor in the world.
Some business executives who boast
of their foresight and capacity are
often superficial; they mask behind
thin veneer.
They are so unmindful of the well
fare of their country and themselves
that they would unloose that wild, un-
tangled mass in southeastern Europe,
where every bitterness and passion
has been famed to white heat by
rivals in the world war.
These elements of chaos and discord
would be implanted on American soil,
if the huntsmen for cheap labor had
their way.
They would centralize every Euro
pean hate and revolutionary impulse
among a people engrossed in the prob
lem of se6-government.
In company towns, controlled by in
dustrial feudalists, immigrants from
these pocket" nations would be
played one against the other. All the
malice of century rooted prejudiees
would be cunningly inhamed by profit
mongers.
The feud camps in every indus
trial center would be intended as a
check on American labor Instead,
they would be a menace to civic and
political development.
Leaving aside the very practical
question as to what extent this con-
dition would affect wages and living
standards, the question might be
asked: ITO what extent will it affect
the American ideal of government"
The corporations reply that they
will Americanize these immigrants.
This, of course, is publicity stuff.
1t is only accepted by few simple
minded folk who yet believe the steel
trust and its kind exist solely to
serve the people.
These trusts must be judged by
their past They had ample oppor,
tunity to Americanize immigrants, bui
the company town -FOUR ned Thu
trusts will not Americauize immi
grants because the latter would ther
demand American working conditions
If the steel trust believed in Ameri
can conditions it would not now cal
for immigrants. Neither would it b.
necessary for men to work IL ant
13-hour day to earn a living wage.
The men who are demanding immi
grafton are profits crazed. Except
ing dividends, they have not singh
ideal.
They would have America a poly
glot country of tribes and clans
rather than nation of firm resolv,

NEW STEEL PRODUCTION
RECORD DESPITE LABOR
SHORTAGE CRY.

!. New York.-The nerve of big
]. biz is shown by Judge Gary's
!. demand for more immigrants at
]. time when the steel industry
!. has smashed all production rec
j. ordS.
y More steel has been manufac-
!. tured this year than during any
y like period, even during the
y. stress of the war, when steel
\. production forces were keyed to
y. the highest pitch. :,
.s Judge Gary and the controlled
!. press ignores this fact while
y. they would create the impress
y. sion that the steel industry is
- falling to pieces because of a
II lack of unskilled labor. The
\. New York Times prints this
- Pittsburgh dispatch on the rec
y ord production of steel:
.. Steel porduction has increas-
e ed continuously during the first
y three months of the year, and
y. with March showing an average
- rate of iEgot production of
..- about AZ, 100000 tons a year, the
\. rate at the close of the month
!. was probably above 100000
\. tons. The probability is that the
y. average rate, say from March
y. to June inclusive, will be above
Il 100000 tons, thus making the

- duction the steel industry has
=. ever recorded.
