In the New York World, June I6, 1924.
 What is the position of the Minute Men? The Supreme Court of the United States has held that the rights of collective bargaining, or for indi- viduals to bargain with their employer for closed shop, is one of the inalien- able rights under the Constitution Therefore the Minute Men have put an open shop plank into their plat form which is designed to be forced upon political parties and to crystal lize into laws that would be strong for constitutional justice, just as the law less labor leader does when he orders American citizens killed or assaulted when they go peaceably to work.
 "The labor leaders are talking about the Minute Men as being opposed to labor. They are not opposed to labor organizations. They are fighting be- side the union labor man who is talk ing his life in his hands and fighting to keep his organization out of the hands of revolutionists and radicals.
 We had not more than started the Minute Men organization before Vic- tor O1ander, secretary of the Illinois Federation of Labor, attacked us in one of those familiar clouds of dema- gogic smoke. It was a fair sample of the stuff and clap-trap that has inti1ni- dated cowardly politicians of both parties
 The Minute Men challenge the right of the labor demagogue to speak for the patriotic citizen that belongs to his organization. John H. Walker president of the Illinois Federation of Labor, talks about a1bor and the clap trap about injunction. It is feared by Sam Gompers, John H. Walker and Victor Oalnder as an encroachment on the liberty of the American people. It IS not liberty enCroachment they fear. It is the fear of encroachment American citizens
 They do not represent honest union labor but they intimidate cowardly politicians. when it comes to law en- forcement and that has got to- stop in this city of Chicago.
 "We went out and saved two judges known as injunction judges, Judge Sullivan and Judge Holden, at the Last election. These injunctions are re- quired to be issued by law"

W. VA. NOLLEPROSSES INDICTMENTS OF
 MINE LEADERS

By InternatinOal Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. C., June 2S-Com- plete collapse of efforts to convict union miners on charge in connection with the armed march" of 1928 was forecast by the action of the state in nolle pressing all indistments against C. Frank Keeney, Fred Mooney and William Blizzard, officials of the United Mine Workers.
 The vigorous prosecution of ~the three defendants by the officers charged with that duty, with the nega- tive results so far secured, has pro duced in the public mind a very gen. eral belief that further prosecution would be only for the purpose of harassing these men," the court was told in a statement read by Harold A.. Ritz, who was appointed by Governor Morgan to take charge of the armed march prosecutions.
 This together with the loss of the most material witnesses from the cases, has convinced us that further prosecution of these defendants would be futile and that the efforts of the state now should be directed to con- victing some of the active participants, whose guilt can still be established. '
 With the consent of the court the state, therefore, will not further pro- secue any of he indictments against Mooney, Keeney and Blizzard
 The cases against the three miners leaders are the only ones in the hands of the Fayette county circuit court, but several hundred men. were in dicted in Logan county.
 In Jefferson county, Blizzard was found not guilty of treason; in Nor gan county, one of the murder charges against Keeney was nolle pressed after trial had been begun; in Greenbrier county the jury disagreed in trial of Blizzard on murder charge; and in Fayetet county Keeney was found not guilty on a murder charge.

and worry are not conducive to a low q ,ath rate.
 Organized labor can contemplate the cutting of the death rate with high de- gree of sat;s sfaction, as undoubtedly the high wage scale which 1t has won for the workers had much to do with keeping Death at bay in 1923.
 Representative John M Robson of Kentucky made strong speech for less war and more roads in the recent ses- sion of Congress. He summed his argu- ment by the following telling points in favor of good roads:
 Our Nation e&cels all others in man power 1n natural resources, and wealth. The building of good roads is of great economic necessity as well as great value to the Nation. Let us build them now and reap the benefit. Let us bring the producers and consumers together. Let us conserve the investment of billions in motor vehicles. Let us complete for the greatest and finest system of highways in the world. Good, roads mean real pre-, paredness. Let us have less war and
 more of improved highways This means more and better farms and farmers, bet ter prices for the farmer and less cost to the consumer, cheaper and more adequate transportation facilities, better schools, better churches, better homes, and a more contented and prosperous, united and powerful nation

ELECR APHERS' NATIONAL BANK
 REPORTS 300 PER CENT. GAIN AT CLOSE OF FIRST YEAR
BY THE WAY

Four men convicted under the Cali for mia criminal syndicalism law were re- gently freed when granted a new trial, the cases being dismissed on motion of the Los Angeles District Attorney, who ad- mitted that there was no case against them. The men had served nearly year
 in San, Quentin penintentiary.
 Four other men who served more than a year in San Quentin for bank robbery were recently released when it was dis covered that they had been "framed up" There was no redress for the eight men who had "served time" The state ad- rnitted that 1t had been mistaken in accus- ing the men but it did nothing to atone for he terrible wrong it had done them. They didn't get a cent for the year taken from their lives and which the blundering state could never restore to them.
 The California cases focus attention on the grave injustice of giving no redress to a man wrongfuly imprisoned. All the states and the federal government as well, are equally at fault. Men are frequent 1y released after being imprisoned for crimes they did not commit and are sent on their way without even an expression of regret.
 It requires no argument to prove that the state should be required to do all in its power to redress such wrong. Pro- gress;ve minded Californians are working to have the next state legislature pass a law compelling the county in which a person is unjustly sentenced and imprison- ed to pay him fair wage for each day served It is to be hoped that the law will be adopted in every state.
 The National Bureau for Economic Research estimates that the population of the United States increased 1,o43 GOO in 1923. This is an unusual increase and the Bureau attributes it to immigration and the lowest death rate which ever country.
 The Bureau didn't say that the low death rate was caused by high wages and the resulting general prosperity but eco homie conditions doubtless had much to do with it. When people are steadily en- ployed at wage levels that enable them to obtain ample food, clothing and shelter and to get needed rest and recreation, they do not de in as great numbers as when the situation is reversed. Poverty and its accompanying misery, sickness
