MAKING MONEY; POVERTY
 HOKUM FADES OUT
The railroads are making money.

The railroads are making money.
 This IS the report that comes from all over the country, heralded in such newspaper headlines as Railroad Earnings Continue to Gain" and Railroads Make a Fine Showing During May.
 Yet 1t was only a few months ago that the railroads were weeping and wailing and declaring amid bitter tears that they couldn't even think of increasing the shopmen's wages. To do so, they asserted, would give them the financial status of a bankrupt peanut-stand keeper.
 Then came the shopmen's strike and despite their plea of poverty, the railroads found millions of dollars with which to fight the shopmen Dol lars were poured out in an intending stream to hire strikebreakers whose chief work was gracing the railroad shops by their presence. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were paid to strikebreaking agencies which cheated the railroads right and left and ran up exorbitant bills for food, supplies and other expenses attendant upon en- tertaining strikebreakers.
 The railroads soon discovered that fighting strike was expensive busi- ness and under the leadership of the Baltimore & Ohio many settled with the shopmen. Since then their earn ings have shown notable increases Now even many of the railroads that didn't settle are showing good earning statements, due to general prosperity in all lines-of trade In view of the facts just mentioned the question naturally arises. How do the railroads get that way" Were not their pleas of poverty largely imagination and wouldn't their re- covery have been much quicker if they had not wasted time and money in fighting the shopmen? An emphatic F4esr' is the only answer to these queries.
 In the months to come, pretences of poverty similar to those of the rail roads in 1922 may be made by other big industries whose workers. are re- sistlng wage cuts or striving for bet ter wages If there should be strikes, there will be the same cry of Were broke" while millions are spent to fight the Workmen, with a consequent heavy loss to the employers and re- tardlng of industrial recovery.
 Then, if union men and the public in general will remember the behavior of the railroads during the shopmen's s strike, and how time refuted the arguments of the railroad managers, they'll be better prepared to judge of similar pleas from the managers of other industries. They'll have facts at hand that if made known widely will make the public accept the em- ployers' statements with several grains of salt

CLERKS GET
 DOUBLE xxx IN. NIGHT WORK FIGHT

Washington, July I3.-Organized postal clerks who have been urging the elimination of unnecessary night work, have been doubled crossed in the politicians most artistic style.
 When this question was presented to congress by officers of the Nation department officials assured the union ists that "this is an administrative matter and can be adjusted without time to study the question:" Now, ials shift their position and declare the matter rests with congress.
 "It is strange that postal bureauc- racy did not discover this night work question to be a legislative one until after congress adjourned" said Thos. F. Flaherty, ecretary-treasurer of the National Federation of Postoffice Clerks, writing in the Union Postal Clerk.
 "To tell the clerks of the service that the department 1t without au- thority to curtail night schedules is on a parity with the other department faux pas when an inspired expert mathematician proved by his own fig ures that overtime pay was higher than the lawful scale" the trade unionist said.
 "It is distressing to note the hypoc- risy of pseudo-humanitarian who prate loudly of subordinates of duty, and then fail in the most important duty of all-namely, fair and honest dealings with said ,subordinates."

MINERS TO FIGHT
 SINISTER EFFORTS
 WITHIN THE UNION
Dual Organization" Uncovered and Will Be Cast Out
 Forthwith!

The international executive board views with great concern the activ- ities of certain sinister individuals who, in various sections and under divers circumstances, are obviously attempting to create discord and con- fusion within the United Mine Work CTS. These individuals, many of whom are without trade union stand- ing and some of whom are of ques- tionable character, seem to derive their energy from the same general source and are apparently actuated by similar motives and work for the same objective.
 We have witnessed the formation and temporary existence of the "Working Class Union" in the south western coal fields and the trail of confusion and trouble. which 1t left in its wake; we have witnessed the of the "One Big Union" in the northwestern provinces of Can ada and it's later annihilation by the diligent ecorts of the loyal trade in the mining industry of those fields; we have observed the almost continuous activities of the birds of passage, who for years past have sown broadcast the malignant germs of industrial hatred which have

Condition of Russian Soviet Pre-
 mier Unchanged Today

Moscow, March 14.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-The condition of Premier Lenine who is suffering from serious illness indicated by the of- fcial bulletins to be of an apopletic nature was unchanged today, it was stated in the communique issued al 3 o'clock this afternoon.
 Crowds on the streets are eagerl! watching the posting of the bulletins and the most intense interest is dis played throughout the capital in the condition of the patient.
 The serious turn in the health of the soviet premier was first made known yesterday when the public was informed through bulletin, that the premier's right arm and leg were affected by weakness but that diffi- culty in his speech which had been noticeable was showing improvement. The bulletin added that the general condition of the patient was satisfac- tory with the temperature virtually normal and the heart action good.
 Almost simultaneously Deputy President Rykoff of the council of commissars announced to the audi ence at a big public meeting that Lenine was in serious condition but not fatally ill.
 There have been many rumors re- gently of the premier's serious illness but yesterdays announcements were the first official combinations.
