HERRIN CASES
ENDED
Prosecutor Snarls When Ac-
cused Prove Innocence

Marion, Ill.-Following a verdict of
mot guilty" in the second trial of
alleged Herrin rioters, the 24 other
cases have been quashed at the re-
quest of the prosecution. The accus-
ed proved alibis and discredited wit
nesses for the state.
State Attorney General Brundage
took an especial interest IN these
cases and his assistant, Middlekauff.
who aided the county attorney in the
prosecution, snarled that there is no
justice in Williamson county.
To Middlekauff's slur on the court
and his cheap bid for sympathy from
anti-union sources, Presiding Judge
Hartwell replied:
"The prosecution were loud in their
praise of the court until now. | ad-
nit Mr.. Middlekauff's superiority in
being able to make use of the news
papers. He tries his cases there bet
ter than in the court house. What he
says will be accepted away from here
and by very few in this vicinity.
The cases were nollied and he is GO
ing away, and he doesn't care much
what he says or who he hurts, just
so he can lay the blame on somebody
for his failure to convict in the cases
just tried Nobody knows better than
| do of the prejudice that exists all
over the country growing out of these
killings. | have not condoned, justi-
fed or excused these killings. / do
not do so now | tried my best to
give both sides fair trial. The
prosecution were loud in their praise
of the court until now"
The trials were the result of the
killing of a score of strikebreakers
and gun men by mob of 5000 per-
sons at Herrin, this county, on the
morning of June %, 1922. The i'm
ported men were armed with machine
guns and high power rifles. They as
saulted citizens, became involved in
hold ups, and closed one public high
way. When they killed three un-
armed miners the mob of citizens,

BY international Labor News Service.

By International Labor News Service.
New York ty-Secessionist tao
tics which have been used from time
to time against the international AS
sociation of Machinists have received
death blow in recent court decision
adverse to a secessionist local in New
York City and in the determination
of the Grand Lodge to prosecute fur
ther the officials of the offending To-
cal, according to E. c. Davidson, sec
retary treasurer of the |. A. of M.
In an official report to District
Lodge No. Is, New York City, made
public today, Secretary Davidson, re-
ferring to the case of Micrometer
Lodge No. 460, decided by Judge
Mitchell May, says
'Under this decision it is matter
of impossibility for a lodge to secede
so long as there is a single protest
which may be entered by any member
OF the association. In other words,
this decision eliminates all possibil-
tiles of organizing dual movements
IN the future and means death blow
to those dual movements which have
been preying on the International As
sociation of Machinists for several
years"
Judge Mays decision, referred to
by Secretary Davidson, concerned the
action of certain members of Mi
crometer Lodge No 460 of the /. A.
of NJ. who in February, 1920, seeded
from the international and formed an
organization which they called Mi
crometer Lodge No / of the Amalga-
mated Metal Workers of America.
The seeding members took posses
sion of the office furniture of Lodge
$50 as well as the dues collected bv it
from members of the |. A. of NJ
Judge May held that inasmuch as the
vote to secede was not unanimous
one, the seeding members were liable
for goods and chattels they took.
Judge Mays decision has released to
Lodge 460 the funds of the organiza-
ton which had been tied up in the
bank pending the outcome of the Iiti-
cation.
Secretary Davidson states in his re-
port to District Lodge No. is that the
Grand Lodge will now proceed against

ENGINEERS PLEAD
That u. S. Employees Be
Protected

New York.-The United States gov
ernment sanctions working conditions
that would not be tolerated by pri-
vate employers, declare the federated
American engineering socities in an
appeal for a federal safety program.
Congress is asked to enact safety leg
islation providing for the safe con-
struction and equipment of buildings,
regular inspection of conditions and
the training of employees to lessen
accidents.
"The government should, in it's in
dustrial plants, set an example to pri-
vate employers by providing for its
own employees working conditions
which are safe, hygienic and sanitary"
says the statement.
Although the United States en-
ployes compensation commission is
now eXpending approximately $3,-
100000 per annum to ALLEVIATE the re-
suits of industrial accidents, it has no
authority to take action of prevent
able nature which might obviate the
necessity for this expenditure for the
loss of life and limb.
"Safe methods of practice in indus
try represent one way to eliminate
waste of human life and material in
manufacturing and productive pro-
cesses, and it is proper function of
the state to safeguard the lives, the
limbs and the health of those engaged
in industry and gainful occupations"

and 80 cents
Judge Fenton w Booth, of the
United States court of claims, has just
handed down a decision as arbitrator
in wage scale negotiation between
the Typothetae of Washington, D. c.,
closed shop branch, and Columbia
Typographical Union No. 101, on be-
half of the union workers in book
and job offices, under which wages
being paid in that branch of the
printing industry will be continued.
The Typothetae had asked for a 10
per cent reduction.
From Cleveland, Ohio, come reports
that clothing workers and tire fac
tory employees have followed the
building trades in securing substan-
tial pay increases. Amalgamated
clothing workers, who applied for a
25 per cent Increases were awarded
raises of 10 per cent and 71A per
cent for tailors and cutters, respect
lively. The tire industry, which CEN
ters around Cleveland and Akron. are
also meeting rising living costs by
wage increases of from 10 to 12h
per cent. Even unskilled building
workers, the last of the Cleveland
building trades to sign agreements,
have secured a wage of 871a cents
per hour, while the skilled building
trades workmen have signed up for
$1.25 to $3.50 per hour.
Even unskilled garbage collectors
employed by the city receive 72 cents
per hour, while labor in the garbage
incineration plants receives $6.75 per
day. These wage payments make an
interesting comparison with the pay
of railway employees awarded by the
railroad labor board, which range
from as low as 25 cents per hour
for common labor to an average of
$5.81 per day for highly skilled en-
gine service employees bearing heavy
possibilities.

M'CLINTIC AGAIN
OVERRULED

Richmond, Va-The federal circuit
court of appeals has again overrul-
ed District Judge McClintic, of West
Virginia, who recently enjoined min
ers from aiding strike in that state
and also ordered coal owners not to
pay any money under the "check off"
system, as some of these funds aided
strikers.
Judge McClintic is ordered to sus-
pend enforcement of his injunction
pending decision by the higher court.
This is the second time the court
of appeals has recently overruled Nc
Clintic. A few months ago he COM
manded Mingo miners to abandon a
tent colony they were maintaining on
leased land. Judge McClintic evil
IDENTIFY figured that he could break the
strike by driving the miners and their
families out of the tents, and along
the road sides. The federal court of
appeals notified McClintic that the
miners owned their tents, and he had
no right to disturb them, as they were
situated on leased land.

ANOTHER PROTECTION
FOR HUMANITY GOES DOWN BY DECREE OF u S.
SUPREME COURT WHEN WOMEN'S MINI
MUM WAGE is ANNULLED
Justice Taft Found Strong Arguments For the Law But
to Judge Sutherland This Meant Nothing

"a restriction as to one is not any
greater in essence than the other, and
is of the same kind" said the minor
ity, who reminded the majority that
the right of contract was set aside in
1917 when the Oregon 10-hour law in
private industry was upheld. This
law applied to men, and was upheld
on the ground that "the custom in
our industries does not sanction
longer service than 10 hours per day"
In the same year the court refused
by tie vote-4 to ito annul the
Oregon minimum wage law for wo-
men. In that case, as in the present
one, Justice Brandeis took no part.
