The Better Business Bureau today

our bureau lies in prevention rather
than cure.

deavor to aid in prevention primarily
and in curt secondarily. Ineesti-

pie of Washington by sad experience.

HARTFORD, Conn. September 25.
Prohibition was criticised today in
an interview by the Rev. @. Herbert
Elkins, who has resigned as assist
ant state superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League.
He Is quoted by the Hartford Cour-
ant as saying that he has no conf
dence that America will stand pe--
manently against light wines and
beer; that because he is English he
has been heretical enough to stand up
in meetings OF the league and say:

the country would have been better

shop men.
He said the present tendency is to-
ward government ownership. "This
calamity, if it comes," he said, twill
be the price paid for incapacity Of
leadership" on the part of the gov
ernment to handle the railroad ques-
ton. Mr. Loree said declines in the
value of railroad stocks show that the
investing public has lost confidence in
railroad values.
The railroad official talked exactly
like a man who is loaded up with in
fiated railroad stock and who would
like to unload on the government,
while affecting horror at the thought
of losing his holdings.

STEEL PRODUCTION
Makes New Record Despite
Labor Shortage Claim

New York.-The nerve of big biz
is shown by Judge Gary's demand for
more immigrants at a time when the
steel industry has smashed all pro-
duction records.
More steel has been manufactured
this year than during any like period
even during the stress of the war,
when steel production forces were
keyed to the highest pitch.
Judge Gary and the controlled press
ignores this fact while they would
create the impression that the steel
industry is falling to pieces because
of lack of unskilled labor The New
York Times prints this Pittsburgh
dispatch on the record production OF
steel:
"Steel production has increased
continuously during the first three
months of the year, and with Marcf
showing an average rate of ingot
production of about 45, 100000 tons &
year, the rate at the close of the
month was probably above 46,000,00(
TONS The probability is that the
average rate, say from March to June
inclusive, will be above 45,000,o0(
tons, thus making the best showing fol
sustained production the steel industr!
has ever recorded.
"In a calendar year the highest pro
duction during the war was 43,619,20(
tons-in 1917; the highest production
before the war was 30,284,682 tons, il
1912, and the highest since the war
40,881 1892 tons, in 1920"

By international Labor News Service.
Indianapolis, Ind.-How Big Busi-
ness labor haters are urged to pool
their strength in fighting trade union
ism is frankly and brazenly told in a
leafiet being circulated by Associated
Employers of indianapolis, one of the
militant labor hating organizations of
the country
This pamphlet is reprint of the
annual report of the president and sec
retary at the recent annual meeting,
where employers were urged to get
together for the anti-union shop.
The circular says:
at is good business and cheap in
dustrial insurance for all employers
to pool their moral and financial sup
port in helping some one employer
defeat strike in the effort to pro-
tect the freedom and rights of all
employers and of all labor. By ex-
tending their collective influence to
help some one of their number with
stand the onslaught of strike agita-
tion other employers not involved
can effectively keep the strike spec
ter from their own doors. 1t is equiv
alent to buying any form of insur-
ance. The small premium employers
pay into the association in member
ship fees, constitutes a fund with
which to meet and quench the fires OF
industrial strife before the confagra.
tion becomes so widespread as tc
effect a greater area of the business
and industrial life of the community. >
