PRISON INDUSTRIAL
 BILL SEEKS TOPAY
 SHARE TO CONVICT
Co-operation of Prisoners for Mutual Profit Aim of New
 Measure

Albany, N Y, Mar. 15.-A profit sharing proposal for inmates of state prisons as a means of winning their cooperation and overcoming inclina- tions to sabotage and lack of interest, incorporated in the administration leg islation for prison reorganization, was outlined by Senator William L. Love, of Brooklyn, and Assemblyman Fred erick L. Hackenberg of New York, au- thors of the bills which seek to revive prison industry.
 The general plan followed,' said Senator Love, 'is to make an indus try out of the prison department and to put the prison industries on a pay ing basis from financial standpoint.
 By having prisoners share in the profits derived from sales, through credit and pay system, the cooperation of the workers-the prisoners confined in the various institutions-will be ob- tained, and incidentally the prisoners will receive the benefit of rehabilita- tion."
 Declaring that the measure steers clear of the usual sentimental efforts On behalf of the prisoner by we'll in tentioned but not practical persons" Senator Love outlined 1t in detail, in this fashion:
 Under the bill the superintendent of prisons, by and with the advice of the governor appoints and at pleasure removes a state superintendent of prison industries who is the chairman of the prison industries and parole board This board takes the place of the present parole board. The func- tions of this new body are to act generally as a board of directors in the management of prison industries and to exercise the prerogatives ot parole as a part of its managerial duties. In this way, 1t is designed to tie up ultimately a proper considera- ton of each convict's industrial record with the determination of the time of his release on parole.
 "A unique feature of the bill is the doing away of the present system of paying the convict one and one-half

 Cut in Immigration

Washington, D. C., March 15.-T ex- pect to support the report of the immi- grafton committee" said Senator Mo lean. This means that the Connecticut senator will probably vote for the proposition of making our immigration quota per cent. and basing it on the census of 1890. Such action has been recommended by the senate immigra- ton committee.
 It constitutes decreasing immigration about third compared with the pres ent flow. But 1t does not involve racial discrimination nor such radical put ting up of the bars as is provided in the Johnson immigration bill, which has been reported out by the house com rnittee. Labor supports the plan.

Holyoke, March 15.-The Central Labor union this week after reading
 the communication addresped to them
 by Charles c. Wood, United States
 commissioner of conciliation, took ac- ton on the matter and in letter ad- dressed to Mr. Wood at Northampton,
 stated that unless you retract your
 statements or produce your proof of Mir. Waegelien's alleged guilt, your usefulness as a conciliator in this ter ritory is ended" The present contro- versy has extended over period of weeks. The communication in full fol- lows =
 Mir Charles c. Wood, Northampton, Mass.
 March 9, 1924. Dear MT. Wood :-
 Your communication of February 27th was read at the regular meeting of the Central Labor union today. It is the opinion of the delegates that
 you have overstepped the bounds ot
 reason in your constituting yourself
 both judge and jury concerning the re-
 lations of MT. Waegelein with his local
 union, the Central Labor union, and
 the employing bakers of this city.
 It is known fact that your plan for
 settlement was not good one or the
 union and that 1t was not your plan
 that was finally adopted, thanks to MT. Waege1ein's fearless attitude in stand 1 ing out for the best interest of his
 union.
 In charging MT. Waegelein with be-
 ing guilty of betraying trust" you are not stating the truth. It is not the purpose of this body to 'iglorify' MT. Waegelein, but it $ its purpose and in tention to see that he and other labor
 men do not have their regulations blackened by you with no proof justi-
 flying your position.
 = The Central Labor union went on record as condemning your unfair and unwarranted attack and would suggest that unless you retract your tatements or produce your proof of MT. Waeg- elein's alleged guilt your usefulness ae a concilliator in this territory is ended. Very truly yours,
 WILLIAM E. NUTLEY, Secretary.

MacDonaLd's Government

Premier MacDonald's opening speech, fol-
lowed by that of Clynes, in which the house
of commons was told that the Labor Party
government had abandoned the capital levy,
that it would not attempt it without national
approval" has been accorded a much more
favorable reception from the capitalist press
and the opposition in the house than from the
labor members and the rank and file of the
Labor Party
According to London dispatches, there is
much disappointment in labor ranks and most
of the applause following the outline of the
governments policy came from the conserva-
tives.
The labor men sat "glum and silent says
one correspondent.
The mass of the British workers have
builded high hopes on the accession of the
Labor Party to power It is going to manifest
more and more Impotence as the Macdonald
government increases, as it will, its efforts
to conciliate the middle classes and to convince
the tories that their privileges and SURPRISES
are in no serious danger.
The money for the housing campaign, for
construction projects of other kinds to relieve
unemployment, cannot come from the i'm
poverished workers.
Two million unemployed brought the Labor
Party to power and it must solve this problem.
The kind words of the spokesman of the Bri-
fish capitalists mean nothing. There will be
sabotage aplenty when loans are needed to
carry out the government program.
Only capital levy will bring the needed
funds, but to institute it and make it effective
the Labor Party government will have to have
more iron in its blood than it has yet shown
No government can be fair to both classes
in society and in its attempt to enact this role
the Macdonald government will either fall or
Continue as did the social democracy of Ger
many-as the smoke screen of the big indus

Boldness and resolution will rally the Bri-

kindly regard for the feelings Of the opposition
will ALLEVIATE the best elements of the British
working class and leave Macdonald and his
cabinet at the mercy of the cleverest ruling
class the world has ever seen.

American Subtletv

After revealing in detail the corruption of
the French press by the cars gold, Lewis
Gannett, in The Nation for February 9Th, re-
marks:
American journalists are hardly subject
to such Grass corruption as these docu-
ments reveal in the French press.
We hope that Comrade Gannett will not be
offended when we ask how he gets that way
Grass means gross, or stupid and unrehned,
according to our dictionary. Perhaps the ar
ticle was written before the extremely frank
Mr.. Bonflls of the Denver Post testified before
the Senate Teapot Oil committee in great de-
tail as to the blackjack methods employed by
himself and henchmen to extract from Harry
F. Sinclair juicy sums of the currency of the
realm.
There is also the incident of the Albuquer-
que journal purchased to ensure its silence
and it is here that we come upon the chief
difference between the corruption of the
French and American press. The French
sheets were paid to boost long and loud the
advantages of the Russian loan. American
newspapers are paid generally for silence and
lots of it.
Comrade Gannett's ideas of what consti-
tutes crassness and ours differ slightly in rela-
ton to another field Of American journalistic
enterprise. Page advertisements of huge de-
partment stores employing thousands Of under
paid girls coupled with the fact that no
adverse publicity affecting these concerns ever
creeps into the news or editorial columns of
the capitalist press as long as the advertise
ments are forthcoming, is fairly Obvious if
not an actually Grass method of the silent
treatment for revenue purposes.
1t might also be remarked in this connec-
ton that there is great scarcity of unfavor-
able comment concerning the Standard Oil
Company in the news of the Teapot Dome in
vestigation nor has any capitalist editor seen
fit to point out that the present scandals is
only the elimination of years Of governmental
corruption fostered by the Standard Oil
interests.
Full page advertisements of Socony gaso-
line, pyralin toilet articles mineral oil laxa-
tives and the thousand and one products of
Standard Oil concerns carried by the metro
politan press may be a more gentlemanly
means of ensuring silence on unfavorable
developments, but certainly they are just as
effective as other methods Of substituting the
press and just as easily detected.
In one respect the fnance-capitalists of
America have the advantage own out
right many of the papers from which the
American people get their information on
public questions.

with his hand to the darkness OF

understood that there was "no way

clear Judgment awoke, clearsighted-

Klimin thought out in his own mind
exactly how to realize it, and, with
strong, sonorous voice, he now sup
ported Robeiko.
Robeiko was quite unable to

the soft divan, and nodded his head

the task of realizing the project
