Labor Faker Is SIC
Leading Fight for
Insurance Sharks

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-Ernest
Greenwood, former American repre-
sentative of the international labor
office of the league Of nations, and
promoter Of "safe" labor news, has
been charged by Representative
Fitzgerald of Ohio with being a
lobbyist for the insurance combine
which is bitterly opposing the pas
sage of the Fitzgerald workmen's
compensation bill for the District of
Columbia. This bill includes the state
insurance fund feature, which ex-
cludes private insurance companies
from the profits Of this industrial
accident business. Greenwood is vice
president Of the local board of educa-
ton, and represents a group Of in
surance concerns.

Queensland Free
from Interference
BY Old John Bull

BRISBANE, Queensland, Feb. IA.
The Labor State of Queensland is
well ahead Of all tlSs other Austria
lian states in the matter of consti-
tutional legislation. The Queensland
people have complete self-government
without any interference by the Brit
ish government in any local ques-
tion. Foreign questions do not come
within the province Of the state legis-
latures but are federal matters.
There is no upper house in the
legislature to revise or nullify the
legislation of the popular chamber.
The upper house has been abolished
by the simple procedure of swamp
ing it with Labor members and vot-
ing it out of existence. There can
be no further grant to Queenslanders
Of imperial honors, more especially
those which confer titles upon the
recipients.
The governor can only act upon
the advice of responsible Queens and
people, while they retain the conf
dence Of parliament. The Labor
government is now moving to Sc
cure the abolition of imperially ap-
pointed governors and the substitu-
tion therefor of local Australian
born governors, who shall be ap-
pointed on the nomination of the
government, elected by the people.

Sees Slaughter of
Civilians Behind
Lines in Next War

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Feb. A.
"The next war is rapidly approach
ing" said Benedict Crowell, assist
ant secretary of war in Wilson's wan
cabinet, in addressing an assembly of
collegians here. The league Of ma
tions is failing, and France. with the
largest standing army in the history
of the world, dominates a Europe
seething with cupidity, envy, and
hatreds enough to make half a. dozen
wars.
Civilians will be fair game in
the approaching war, says Crowell.
"Airplanes will jump over armies
and attack the directing brains be-
hind. / believe that combing of cit
les is not only justifable, but will
be carried out in the next war.
Supply depots and junction points
behind the lines viii have to be de-
stroyed, and this necessarily means
killing civilians as we'll as soldiers.
Indeed, the quickI way to end

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-In re-

In other words, abolish tax ex-

dangerous movement for public own

piece of work.

Carpenters Split
into Dual Unions
In Canadian TOIUn
,By The Federated Press,

OTTAWA, Feb. 14.-There is a
split in the ranks of the carpenters
here, the majority Of the old union
going over to the international
(U.S.) while minority is retaining
the charter from the British head
quarters. This split is an outcrop-
ping of the long fight between the
Amalgamated Society Of Carpenters,
a British organization, and the
United Brotherhood, which has it's
head Office in Indianapolis.
Ten years ago a working agree
ment was made between the two
parent bodies, by which Canadian
branches of the Amalgamated might
affiliate for trade purposes with the
United Brotherhood. There has been
some friction over the working of
this agreement, however, and rec ent-
ly the Ottawa lodge Of the Amalga-
mated applied for full membership
in the United. The Canadian or
ganizer Of the Amalgamated, John
Doggett, has succeeded in getting
some 20 or 80 of the old members
to retain their British charter.
Legal action is being threatened
over the ownership of the property
of the Amalgamated union.
OTTAWA, Feb. 14.-The city Of

Mine at Equality, M.

BENTON, ILL.,, Feb. ID Union
miners here have undertaken an ex-
pertinent in cooperative production,
operating the mine Of the Gallatin
Coal & Coke Co., Equality, Ill. The
private owners were unable to make
the mine pay, and it had not been
operated for some time, being in
the hands Of a receiver. Water had
flooded the mine, threatening dam
age beyond repair.
The local miners union went into
the mine, pumped out the water and
repaired khe damage. Then they
went to the receiver and entered into
an agreement to operate the mine,
pay operating expenses and a fixed
amount on each ton hoisted, in re-
turn for the sale price Of the coal.
The contract was approved by the
receiver and ratified by the union.
The agreement will expire April /.
The mine employs 115 men. These
union miners are convinced of their
ability to demonstrate the success Of
the workers management and CO.

RAILROAD JOBS
GROWING FEWER,
MONTH BY MONTH
70, 76O Men Discharged
Since Last August
By LELAND OLDs

Federated Press Industrial Editor)
The railroads of the country con-
tinued to reduce their forces in Mo-
vember, according to the monthly
wage report of the interstate COM
ncrce commission. The total num-
ber of workers on the payroHs Of
all roads fell from 1,936,494 in Oc-
tober to 1,899,545 in November, de-
crease Of 2 per cent.
At the same time total wage pay
ments declined from $271, ,0O5,542 to
S249, 9,686,024, or by nearly 8 per
cent. The resulting decline in av-
erage per capita earnings from $140
to $132 is due largely to the fact
that there were less working days
in the latter month.
Steady Job Decline.
Since the peak month Of August,
when 1,973,505 workers were en-
ployed the carriers have reduced
forces by. 73,T6O or nearly 4 per
cent. But of ever greater significance
to the wage earners of the country
is the reduction in the number Of
full-time jobs on the railroads during
the period for this is the real index
of the general wage situation. On
November Is there were 81,246 fewer
full time jobs for hourly paid work
ers on the railroads of the United
States than there were on August 10.
This means reduction of nearly 5
per cent in the opportunity to earn
wages on the railroads.
The following table shows the fuc-
tuation in number of full time Jobs
for an average monthly compensa-
ton during the last six months:

RAILROAD OWNED
COURT DISMISSES
SHOP CRAFTS CASE
SIS, 900, 900 Back Paw
Stays with Pennsy
BY FREDERICK KUN.

(Stan Correspondent Of the Federated Presn
NEW YORK.-The legal action
for injunction, brought by six i'm
portant shopcrafts against the Penn
sylvania railroad, has been dismissed
in court by Federal Judge Dickinson.
This decision, if upheld, will mean
the plunder of $15,000,000 back pay.
which the railroad company is refus-
ing to deliver to the 10000 workers
who belong to System Federation No.
The trial, which has terminated in
Philadelphia, grew out OF the feder-
atoms application for mandatory in
functions to force the railroad to
comply with orders issued by the u.
s. railroad labor board. The board
had fixed wage rates for the various
crafts and granted the workers the
privilege of designating their own
organization to represent them in
dealings with the employers.
Obevs As Il Pleases
Previously, the company had
shown readiness to obey the deci-
sions of the labor board. That was
when the board had ordered wage re-
ductions. The railroad officials had
also recognized the authority of the
board in removing the national
agreement, negotiated between the
labor unions and the U. S. railroad
administration during the period Of
federal control. That agreement had
regulated wages, hours of labor and
working conditions on the railroads.
But when the decisions of the
board imperilled the open shop move
ment on the railroads, the COMPANIES
no longer considered the government
body competent.
The Pennsylvania Immediately set
out to create fake labor organiza-
tions, officered by its own agents,
which agreed to accept wage rates
far below those fixed by the board.
The employers then staged supposed
negotiations with their company un-
ions and agreed upon working con-
ditions which were also in violation
of the boards verdict.
10000 Workers Affected
The System Federation holds that
these actions constitute a conspiracy
to deprive federation members Of
legal rights, granted to them under
the transportation act. The fedora
ion embraces the machinists, electri-
clans, boilermakers, blacksmiths,
sheet metal workers and carmen
more than 10000 strong.
The suit for $15,0O0,000 was based
upon modification of the national
agreement between the railway adj
ministration and unions during the
war. The agreement set UP a nni-
form wage for shopcraft employees.
Under pressure from the companies,
the board later reduced the scale. But
not content with this reduction, the
railroad employers lowered wages
still further. Il is the difference be-
tween these two rates which COM
prises the S15,000,000, claimed by
the organized workers.
Judge Dickinson stated that the
federal courts are not empowered to
enforce decisions of the railroad la
Dor board.
The Federated Press is informed
that the suit will be carried by the
shopcrafts to the circuit court of
appeals, and will be heard there in
March. Should this court, too, rem
der an anti-labor decision, the unions
will appeal to the U. S. supreme
court.

Philippine X uIe

MANILA, P. l., Feb. H. The
Philippine legislature adjourned yes
terday. The most notable thing
about the session Of the legislature
just closed was it's notable drift
toward policy of non-co-operation
on the part Of the native law makers.
Il is rumored that General Wood
will veto the appropriation bills which
have made serious cuts in the appro-
priations for his department in order
that the administration might con-
tinue operation on last years budget.
This would be permitted by the or
ganic laws under which the Philip
pine law makers legislate.
Land law amendments that would
have turned public lands over to the
rubber interests were part Of the
legislation proposed by Wood which
was defeated by the legislature.

to work for relief of those who are
struggling to wrest themselves from
the desperate clutches Of the dying
capitalist order.
