LABOR NEW BANK
 AND ITS OBJECTS

To mobilize labor's financial anc | credit power" is the promise of a new l banking enterprise recently created ana known under the title of the H. w. Nor gan Company, which has its roster of 1 names of the highest official family of the American Federation of Labor. Guy E. Oyster, formerly secretary to Sampel Gompers, in making the first public statement from headquarters at Washington, D. C., in reference to the new venture of la Dor into the field of banking and industrial promoting, says
 This mobilization of labor's fnan- clal and credit power," Oyster explains, will be not only to promote the rights, interests and welfare of the workers themselves, but to eliminate waste i'll in dustry and certain unsound practices and special privileges in the field of finance and credit that levy tolls in the form of income from production to which they do not contribute"
 Among the conspicuous causes of waste in American industry, Oyster ex- plains, are the antagonis1n to labor and insufficient knowledge and use of science Ill the management of industry. I'll. w.. Morgan & Company" 1t Is said, twill underwrite, after thorough investigation, only |those enterprises which are sound from bankers viewpoint and in which laDOr can buy control.
 This practice,' Oyster believes, will remove the antagOn1Sm between manage ment and the unions by removing the factors which cause management to op- pose unions. Then we will call upon the engineers to put method into man agement, facts where guess work has been, and eliminate the waste that bur dens, practically the entire industrial field.''
 The official organizers of H. w. Nor gan & Co.,, Inc, are given as follows:
 Matthew Woll, vice president of the J. Tobin, treasurer the A. F. of L.; Frank Harrington, president United Mine Workers of Illinois; Joseph Fischer, vice president the A. F. of L. j; James OConnell, president metal trades department of the A. F. of L.; Thomas A. Rickert, president United Garment Workers; A. J. Barnes secretary treas urer the metal trades department the A. F. of L.; w. N. Doak, vice president the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen; James Noonan, president International Brotherhood International Association of Electrical Workers; Martin F. Ryan, president of Brotherhood of Railway Carmen; James Wilson, president Pat tern Makers League of America w. H. Johnston, president International Asso- citation of Machinists Arthur J.. Lowell, vice president Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Engine1nen; Fred Zihlman, member of congress and chairman of house committee on labor. Jackson H.

SHOP MEN DROP
 INJUNCTION CASE

Chicago, May 4.-Oficers of the locked-out railroad shop men have in Structed their attorneys to withdraw
 from the Daugherty injunction case. Since the supreme courts decision in the Pennsylvania case the injunction involves only dead issues, the shop | men say, and they refuse to cope with Daugherty's unlimited financial resources in fighting the case further. When the attorney general asked for the injunction, eight months ago, he said the strike was "oOnspiraCy" to violate orders of the Railroad La Dor Board. He based his plea on the theory that the word of the Railroad Labor Board is law.
 In it's recent decision against the Pennsylvania railroad, the supr eme court ruled that the Railroad Labor Board can not enforce it's decisions.
 With the court sweeping aside Daugherty's main point, the attorney general now depends upon a continu- ance of the injunction to ''enforce law and order" >The shop men insist that it IS outside the province of injunc- ton judges to enforce law and order, but the shop men are not going to spend their money fighting this par ticular point at this time, when hum gry mouths are to be fed. If they did fight this point now, Daugherty and his water carriers and banner bearers would raise the cry that the shop men want to violate law,
 | is also a question if final de- cision could be secured if the case was dragged on through the years to the supreme court. It is quite likely that the court would say it was moot case," that only abstract points were involved
 Daugherty, of course, is willing to fight the case, as he is not spending his own money.

Statistical Wizard
 Knows Strike Losses

Baltimore, May At means nothing to A. s. Goldsborough, secretary of the Merchants and Manufacturers Associa- ton, that the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics can find no reliable system of computing strike losses. Mr. Goldsborough has it all figured out
 Does labor know what strikes did to them in Maryland last year ?" asks this office manager.
 Mo- labor does not Well, to be exact, labor lost 1, ,162, ,1o4 days, he says Lost wages totaled $5,663,744, and the aggre- gate loss to Maryland industry was nearly $11,00O,O00.
 And then, to clinch his definite figures, he says: Tt is rumored that some mis- guided leaders are advising labor to overload its demands"
 The United States Bureau of Labor statistics says it is impossible to con- pile strike figures, because strikes in seasonal industries are not losses; neither are strikes in individual plants, whose production and market filters through other sources. It also shows that employers and employed rarely agree on the number of workers in vo1ved in a strike. Workers who are listed as strikers are often found at other employments of a temporary nature after the first few days of a strike

Miners Again Attacked

New York, May 4.-Attorneys for bituminous coal owners are running up pretty bill by their barrage of letters, statements, proClamations, and denunciations against coal miners that they are forwarding, via the public press, to the United States coal com mission.
 The purpose, of course, is to com pei the commission, If possible, to condemn the miners
 The latest attack Is on the miners "check-of." The attorneys say this method of collecting dues makes a large treasury possible, and that money without limit has been ex- pended in Arkansas, Alabama and in West Virginia.
 The story would be doubly inter esting if the attorneys told why the miners spent this money-that the Arkansas movement was against a coal owner who violated his contract, and Alabama was wage cutting, un1on-smashing movement.
 The West Virginia movement can be best understood by referring to this statement by United States Sen ator Kenyon, after Investigating West Virginia conditions:
 The issue is plain and perfectly ap- parent. The operators in this par ticular section of West Virginia un- der consideration openly announce and did before the committee that they will not employ men belonging to the unionS" l"

PEOPLE DO NOT RULE: OLlCARCHIES GOVERN

Northampton, Mass, May 4 -"The American people, supposed to have the freest and most democratic govern ment in the world, are in reality gov- erned by a complex system of o1igar- chies," said Professor James Wood house of Smith College at a women's conference here.
 One of the greatest lacks in Ameri- can life Is the need of systematic politi- cal thinking, speaking and writing Politically we are a nation of indifferent, short-sighted, emotional opportunists. As a people we have long and per- sistently refused to devote serious and connected thought to things political and have insisted upon degrading the words politics and politician until they are very generally considered terms of re- preach.
 "The fact is that we are not willing to pay the price of good government, eternal care, viligance and activity for matters of general concern, and so we pay higher price for ineffectiyely poor and actively bad government.
 Now, law and politics are merely moneyrnaking businesses and are so considered and treated by those engaged in them or in any other business. The American people are no worse now than were their predecessors of 175O and 1925, but certainly their standards of value have in this respect become less highly social and much less admirable"
 Professor Woodhouse said the fault for present conditions was not in gov ernment systems or political machinery, but in the lack of action, study and thought by the individual citizen.

A Directory of Our FRIENDS

In pursuance, of the movement which has for it's purpose the urging of all working people to give their combined support to reputable con- cerns that have uniformly shown a friendly attitude toward the cause of Labor, there will here be found 2 directory of enterprises which we feel can be conscientiously endorsed and which are, therefore, justly entitled to our good will and united co-opera- tion
 It does not necessarily follow that concerns which are not here repre- scented are unfriendly, nevertheless those listed on this page have demon strated their friendliness in various ways and should have our support.

THE SPIRIT OF SETYICE
BY President McMuuen, Of the
Northern Arizona Normal School.

OF all the attributes that go to
make up a worthwhile member of
society, the most important is the
spirit OF service. And yet, the spirit
OF man is an elusive thing. No
one can say it resides in the heart.
Nor can one say it is inherited and
lies in the brain. Neither can one
say that it inhabits a robust physi-
que. Employers Of men try to reach
it by the following questions Does
the applicant take criticism kind
ly?' Is the applicant socially in
cIned?' Does the applicant work
well with his fellow?" is the ap-
plicant loyal to his job and to his
superior officers?" rs the applicant
of good disposition"
AND of all the questions asked
these are the greatest. Where one
man fails because of lack of abb
lity, nine fail because of a lack of
spirit.
And so it is gratifying to me when
nearing the end of three years of
service in the Northern Arizona Nor
NAL school to note that, while we
have made great material progress,
while We have made lawns, built
roads and walks, installed tennis
courts, lighting systems and foun-
tain, erected cottages, increased our
dining room facilities, enlarged la
bOratOries and work shops and have
planted trees and shrubs; while we
have made great educational pro-
gress, raised our ideals of stupent-
ship, increased our faculty standard
both by advanced study on leaves of
absence and by the enlistment Of
new faculty members having excel
lent preparation; while we have in
creased in numbers by thirty per
cent each year; while our students
of college grade have increased one
hundred fold; while our summer
school has almost outgrown the
housing capacity of Flagstaff; while
we have fifteen young men prepar-
ing for the service of teaching
where we had not one; while all of
this has been accomplished; our
most notable growth has been
growth in spirit.
All of these five things that I
mentioned-the growth in a mater
ial way, the growth in an education
al way, the growth in student at
tendance, have been made possible
by the spirit of cooperation, by the
spirit of loyalty, by the spirit of
service displayed by our board of
trustees, by the people of Flagstaff,
by the students, by the alumni and
by the faculty of this institution.
This spirit so abundantly mani
tested by the school is felt over the
state. The legislature and the ex-
ecutive officials of the state feel it
and SO do the school boards and sup
erintendents as is shown by the fact
that we have many more calls for
teachers than we can supply.
And so in opening this faculty
number my desire is to impress all
who read it with the value of the
spirit OF service. In the language
of the embarrassed churchman well
coming the new minister: MAY we
all be filled with zeal and vigor."
