'DOtey' Teacher
Wants Berenberg
Canned for VieUS

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-At a re-
cent meeting of the Federation Of
Women's Clubs here. Aaron /. Dotey,
q New York high school teacher who
is making a strong bid for notoriety,
engineered a motion from the floor
that the state superintendent of edu-
cation revoke the license possessed
by David P. Berenberg. a Socialist
school teacher. The basis Of this at
tack on Berenberg was simply his
association with the labor movement.
The Women's Clubs delegates passed
the anti-Socialist resolution unani-
mously. Dotey's campaign against
Berenberg is regarded as a wholly
political issue and is being fought
As such by the Socialist party.

IRISH MARTYRS
WIDOW SEEKS
WORKERS AID
Irish Communists Aid
Republicans

IF the Irish Labor Party and the
labor movement of Ireland would line
up with the Republicans it would be
the greatest thing that has happened
for the Republican cause in recent
years." said Mrs. Tom Clarke, Irish
Republican and widow of one of the
signers of the Irish Declaration of
Independence, who is in this country
trying to get the aid of Irish-Ameri-
cans for the Republic Of Ireland
James Connolly worked for a re-
public with the. republicans. He
thought that the greatest thing that
could happen would be to free Ireland
from England
Irish Labor False to Ideals.
"Since Connolly was killed the
leaders of the Irish labor movement
who came into power urging a fol-
lowing of the policy of Connolly have
|belied their words by their acts.
They have taken their places in the
Irish Free State government and they
will have nothing to do with the re-
publicans. The Communists while
maintaining their organization have
worked with the republicans.
"If the Labor Party would line
up with the republicans they could
seriously hamper the Free State gov
eminent. The rank and file of the
trade unionists. are behind the repub-
Leans in sentiment but are helplessly
tied up by the officials Of the Labor
Party"
Mrs. Clarke said that the Republi-
cans expect nothing from the present
British Labor Party government be-
cause they hold power by grace Of
Liberal tolerance. "The British La
Dor Party if it grants anything to
the republicans of Ireland will merely
be carrying out the wishes of the
Liberals who have taken hard boil
ed attitude and don't want to back
down now"
Larkin Disappointment.
"Jim Larkin was very real dis
appointment to the republicans. We
were waiting anxiously for his re-
turn. One Of the first things he did
did was to call on the Irish republi-
cans to give up their arms. By that
he alicnated the sympathies of all
the republicans in the labor move
ment. Since returning to Ireland
Jim's name has been associated with
series Of failures. He tried to GUST
the present officials Of one Of the Irish
unions and failed. No matter what
he turned his hand to he failed and
80 he has lost his leadership.
1.-THE foreign policy Of the Republic
Of Ireland will always be TO line up
with the enemies Of England"
Catholic Church Menace.
1.-THE Catholic church in Ireland is
pro-Free State. II controls the entire
educational system Of Ireland and
has always lined up with the rulers
Of Ireland whether they were Free
Staters or English. The control Of
education gives the church a powerful
grip on the people. They have a
terrific machine and they will try TO
crush any person who stands out for
a republic.
1.-THE greatest menace TO Republic
can Ireland is the Catholic church
and their. Control Of education
Mrs. Clarke will speak at a big
mass meeting Of Irish Republicans at
Turner Hall, $50 N. Clark st., to-
night at 500 o'clock. This will be
Mrs. Clarke's last speech in Chicago
before leaving to continue her tour

LABORER AND FARMER PARTNERS

The existence Of a great propagan-
da campaign intended to set industrial
workers and farmers against each
other in hostile groups was exposed
in the House of Representative re-
Gently by George Huddleston of Ala
bama.
Farmers are being told, according
to Representative Huddleston, that
the high cost of the articles they buy
results from excessive wages paid to
workers, while an effort is being
made to persuade workers that the
farmers are profiteering.
"Of course" said Representative
Huddleston, "the propagandists are
not content with the plain truth.
Facts are grossly distorted and some
deliberate lying resorted to. For in
stance, high freight rates are charged
to high wages for railroad labor"
The truth is, it was pointed out,
that in September of this year rail-
road labor received the smallest per-
centage of railroad income since 1917
Dependent on Home Market
Instead of being misled by this pro-
paganda, said Representative Hud-
dleston, the farmer knows that the
city worker is his best customer.
"The farmer" he said, "is depend
ent to large extent upon home mar
kets and home consumption. Nearly
always low prices for farm products
are caused not by production, but
by under-consumption-the inability
of our home people to buy the normal
quantity.
"This is illustrated by wheat, when

Rebels Under De la Huerta Execute
Trade Union Officials in Cap

Representatives of American trade
unions and members of unions engag-
ed in transport work at border ports,
have been asked by President Samuel
Gompers of the American Federation
government in the detection of gun
of Labor to assist the United States
running and smuggling of illicit sup
plies to the forces of the rebellion un-
de la Huerta in Mexico.
While the Mexican government
seems to have the situation well in
hand at the present time, yet every
precaution should be taken to prevent
smuggling of supplies, guns and am
munition to the rebel forces by per-
sons in sympathy with Huerta, at
points along the border.

in border ports and in seaports from
which goods may be shipped illegally

FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHT FOR
PROGRESSIVE LEolsLATloN

Included in the New Year res
olutions that progressive citizens
viii ask should be one that the
great fight for decent govern
ment which was attended with
such satisfactory results last
year shall be continued until a
final glorious and decisive bat
tie is won
Progressive legislation In 1924
will depend upon united action.
Of progressive members Of both
House and Senate without re-
gard to political lines, for needed
Legislation must be secured by
concerted efforts.
Terrific propaganda for or
against measures sometimes OBJ
secures the real issue. and at this
time Congress is overwhelmed
with propaganda affecting, prac-
tically every important legisla-
tive proposal.
Veterans in the Progressive
movement have learned that prop
uganda is not public opinion and
are rarely affected by pressure
brought by special interests.
The prospect has never been
SO bright during recent years for
wholesome tax, labor agricultur-
al, railroad, and human interest
legislation as distinguished from
that bearing the dollar label.
The people are expecting re-
lief, rightly, and this Congress
should enact such laws as will ae-
complish this promptly. The Pro-
gressies will do all in their power
to carry out the mandates glen
in the 1922 Election.
The future is bright with au-
curry. All that is needed to secure
complete emancipation is that the
Progresses stick to their guns.

Nearly $4,000 hydro Plants
In United States and Canada Are
Owned by Municipalities

Now that Aberdeen has entered the
field as one of the cities which is
or will develope its own light and
power, it is proper that the public
should be informed just how many
successful municipal-owned plants are
being operated by the people In the
different states of the union, and
Canada. Mr.. Carl D. Thompson, sec
retary of the Public Ownership
League of America, writing for Labor,
the official organ of the 16 standard
railway organizations of America says
that there are approximately 5000,
all are municipality owned except
twelve which are owned by the fed
eral government OF the 1900 plants,
401 are located just across the bor-
der in Canada.
The average person is under the
Impression that the development of

tes is in the experiment stage and will
be surprised that there are now thou

the consumption dropped from 5.76
bushels per capita in 1919 to 4.18 in
1920, a drop of 1.58 bushels for each
man, woman and child in the United
States, or a total of about 175,0OO,00
bushels under-consumption for 1920.
Millions of wage earners and their
families were underfed. They could
not buy the normal supply of bread,
and as a consequence wheat prices
fell like a plummet."
The highest duty of craftsmanship,
according to Representative Huddle-
ston, is to bring the producers and
consumers together with the fewest
possible number of middlemen taking
tribute from both. He stated that the
tendency in recent decades has been
in the opposite direction.
Farmer Gets ''Nub' of Dollar
Representative Huddleston declared
that in 1922 the farmers of the Uni
ted States received a total of $780,
100000 for their produce, and that for
the same produce the consumers paid
$22, 100000, 900. In other words, the
farmers received but 80 per cent of
the consumers dollar, the remaining
20 per cent going to middlemen.
Economic and political cooperation
between farmers and workers, de-
clared Representative Huddleston, is
the remedy for this situation. Big
Business, jealous of it's present oppor-
tunities to extort from both workers
and farmers, is anxious to prevent
cooperation, hence its effort to keep
these elements apart by disseminating
lies and misinformation, said Repre-
sentative Huddleston.

DUNNE'S PLANT SOLD
At PUBLIC AUCTION

The plant and property of the Bull
letin Publishing company has been
sold under a court order for $6,5OO to
satisfy loan of $4,000. The plant,
valued at $4,000 was sold because of
inability of the publishers to raise
sufficient funds to satisfy the holder
of the note against the company.
The Bulletin Publishing company
published the Butte Bulletin of which
William F. Dunno is editor. 1t will
be recalled that Dunno was expelled
from the convention of the American
Federation of Labor in Portland last
October.
Desertion of the paper by friends
whom it had raised to high public
office is blamed by Dunno for the
loss of the plant.
The Butte Bulletin will continue
publication as weekly following de-
cision of the Silver Bow Trades and
Labor Council to advance funds and
moral support. Recently the paper
has been frankly friendly to the
Workers party and the Federated
Farmer Labor party (communists)
and that is probably the real cause
of its troubles.
Editor Dunno, it is understood, will
become editor of the Chicago Daily
Worker, communist, when that paper
starts publication on January the 18th.
