Sense from Congress

Neither the states nor the nation should permit coal mines to become charnel houses or slaughter pens. Hu- manity dictates that the states and na- tion should see to 1t that there are less widows or orphans produced in our coal mines" "-Representative John M. Robinson of Kentucky in speakin on Mine Disasters
 q believe that all reforms that the people sincerely desire can and should constitutional and local agencies, and that any resort to violence for any pur- pose Is un-American and will be finally destructive of all hope for the happi- ness of the people of this and succeed ing generations. ns."-Representativ John J. McSwain of South Carolina in add ress on "The Creed of an American" "
 Our marvellous high-speed automatic and seni-automatic machinery requires that our wage earners be as fit as a horse for a race. That means high wa ges and all that such wages imply in ef- hciency, good food and housing, cour- age, determination and good will. l."- Representative James V. McClintic of Oklahoma, in speaking on Tariff Legis- latiOn.

GAMBLERS IN POLITICS

Chicago, Aug. 16-"Bulls" in the Chi cago grain pit have sent prices to dizzy heights, and one p1unger has cleaned up $1, 1,500,OOO on corn. Eastern gambl- CTS, it is said, have cashed in larger gains. Early rains and prospects of short crops aided the speculators, though one of the most effective stories was that a strong-arm combination is under grains to shove prices up and insure the national administration election

What more sacred duty can we have than keeping the citizenship of Our Country at the highest level of intelli- gence, health and virtue?
 Our inheritance is great, and we must be worthy.
 We must protect and preserve Amc,i- ca and Americans.
 To do so, our gates must be closed to class of immigrants who have been coming in recent years; who are lit orally watering our Nations life blood.
 We must receive only those who by intelligence and virtue, by thrift and loyalty, are worthy of receiving the equal advantages of the priceless gift of American citizenship.
 Opposed to this policy, we have a

duct. Attorney Baker demanded that the preliminary hearings and those be- fore the Master, that the strikers should desist from picketing, boycotting and carrying banners. Mir. Gatelee re- fused to consent to this holding that no proceeding before the court would be permitted to take from the strikers their essential rights, and stating that so far as he was concerned he would instruct the strikers to continue carry ing on the strike as they had been dO- ing. inasmuch as peaceful picketing was lawful, the primary boycott was lawful, and carving a banner was lawful, Largely because of Mr. Gatelee's deter imitation in this respect, 1t was possible for the strikers to win their strike and reach a settlement with the Massa- chusetts Baking Company before the f. nal court action was taken in the case eleven months afterwards.
 In connection with the hearings be- fore the Master, MT. Gatelee effective ly brought out the true character of the Massachusetts Baking Company's intentions, and the unreliability of it's witnesses. As an experienced trade unionist he knew that in many injunc ton cases the damaging evidence against the strikers was given to the court by members of unions who, in re- ality, were spies within the organiza- ton, serving their masters for the Ju- das silver they received by giving testi- mony which would work to the strikers injury
 Two of the striking bakers gave evi- dence before the Master which materi- l. ally injured the strikers case. Mir. Gatelee cross-examined them as vigor- ous1y as though they had been profes- sional strike-breakers. He asked them if they had taken the, members oath of obligation when they were initiated, and when they answered yes, he read the obligation to the Master, and then asked the question:
 How can the testimony of these men have any weight, if, after taking the ob- ligation just read, they can now testify as they have just done? Is there any
 reason for placing credence upon any
 thing that they might testify in connec-
 ton with the case?"
 The employers and their representa- tives were cross-examined in an equally vigorous and pointed manner, the re- suit being that their testimony and that of their tools, who had been uncovered
 as spies by Mr. Gatelee, was discredi- | ted, and in time the Master made his
 report to the court, accompanied by the recommendation that the facts present
 ed during the hearing did not justify
 the granting of a temporary restrain 1 ing order.
 l This report was one of the most striking victories which labor in Mas 1 sachusetts had won since the Massa- chllsetts Supreme Court had opened , wide the doors for the issuing of in
 functions, which practically prohibit
 strikers from doing anything which
 would assist them in winning their
 strike The story of the final disposa
 of this famous case will be told in the
 next article.
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-08-16

"The voice of the great multitude ot workers is now raised i'll protest that the practice of Equity should now seem to be used in administering punishment rather than in affording protection.
 If there is any issue of irresparable damages i'll these cases at all, 1t is that suffered by the worker, who, enJO1ned by the courts from fighting back at the employer sees his savings dwindle away his children forced into industry prematurely, and his little property wiped out by mounting debt.
 "If there is any conspiracy 1t IS that matched among the employers, and by the paid secret agents of the employer working from within the labor organl- zation, and who see to 1t that those ele- rnents necessary to the successful pros ecution of labor suit in Equity are pre- sent.
 If there is any coercion or intimida- ton, 1t is that practiced by the employ CT on his employees, when he sends ennis saries to the homs of his workers threatening, cajoling, and urging them to forsake their fellow-workers."
 We have again quoted from the re- markable document prepared by John F. Gatelee. It was to have been pre- sented to the court as labor's protest against the abuse of the writ of in junction in Massachusetts the document as a whole, as well as the quotation from 1t just given, indicates Mr. Gate lees mental attitude towards the prob lem and his convictions.
 The document, however, did not be- come a part of the equity proceedings, which covered period of eleven months, for, to Mir. Gatelee,s surprise, Justice Pierce of the Massachusetts Su- preme Court, before whom the prelimi- nary hearing was held, instead of issu- ing temporary restraining order, re- ferred -the case of the bakrs' strike against the Massachusetts Baking Com pany back to the original parties with instructions to endeavor to effect an adjustment of their differences. The bakers made every effort to reach friendly settlement but the rep resentatives of the Massachusetts Bak- 1 ing Company were unwilling to modify their original determination in any re- spect the result being that another hear 1 ing was held, this time before Justice Carroll of the Supreme Court in Bos- ton, Mass Attorney Herbert A. Baker, representing the Massachusetts Baking Company, insisted upon the issuing of a temporary restraining order, but in stead of complying with this request l Justice Carroll referred the entire mat ter to a Master for hearings, and MT
 Gatelee, although having no legal train 1 ing, upon the request of the strikers
 represented them in the lengthy hear
 ings which were held before tn Mas l ter.
 He assumed a quite different attitude
 from that which has been taken by
 many lawyers representing labor in pre-
 lirninary hearings in injunction suits The strikers were picketing the Massa-
 chusetts Baking Company's shop ir 1 Springfield. Tn addition they wer car
 rying banners in front of the shop, and

BIoGRAFIA DE CYRIL RING

Cyril Ring, eminente actor de la
Paramount, pertenece a una antigua
y notable familia de actores ameri-
canos.
James H. Ring, abuelo del biogra-
fiado, forino parts durante mas de
treinta afios del grupo de eminentes
artistas que actuaban en- el famoso
teatro Boston Museum entire los cuales
descollaban actores de gran Tenombre
de Ia escena americana. Guillermina
Ring, abuela del actor de la Para
mount, fue una cantante de opera que
alcanz6 grandas triunfos en- los prin-
kcipales teatros de los Estados Un:dos
Y de 4nglaterra.
Ell padre de Cyril Ring fue educa-
do para el teatro como sus anteceso-
res, pero debido a su delicado estado
de salud, tuvo que abandonar esa pro-
fesi6n, quedando asi truncada por una
generaci6n la tradici6n artistica de la
familia Ring. Blanca Ring, hermana
mayor de Cyril, reanudo la tradic!on
cuando hizo su debut en- uno de los
principales teatros de Nueva York )
A los pocos amos, Julia Ring, seguia
los pasos de su hermana, y en- la mis-
ma temporada, Cyril aparecia con so
hermana Blanca en- Ell reparto de La
opera ''La much&cha yanqni' Eh
