VOTE TO
BE TAKEN FOR H.
S. LOCATION

During the past several weeks a
keen interest has developed in the
matter of a site on which the new
high school is to be located.
1t is apparent that there is i~ncreas-
ing dissatisfaction over the Blyden-
burgh property as the proper location
for a high school building and a
number of other possible sites have
been widely discussed pro and con.
Last Thursday, after having made
l personal inspection of all possible
sites. the members of the Lions Club
voted practically unanimously in IA
vor of the Park Hill site as the most
suitable yet proposed. The general
sentiment Of the Club appeared to
point to the Tact that a very serious
mistake would be made in carrying
out the present plans to utilize the
property for high school
1t was decided at last Thursdays
luncheon of the Lions Club that an
attempt should be made to
ascertain the sentiment of school pat
rons as to the location most favored
as a high school site.
Very shortly postal cards will be
to all school patrons and on
these cards they will be expected to
indicate the location most favored.
This straw vote will be conducted
in a manner similar to the presiden-
tial straw vote being conducted by
the Literary Digest.
The final result of this referendum
vote of a high school location will be
to the School Board for its
consideration.

After all we are but children grown up. We play the
same games, we wage the same contests we did back
IN the days when we whooped it up and shouted for
Hayes and Wheeler, or Hancock and Tilden. We use
methods and means and implements more befitting our
years, avoirdupois and dignity, but the emotions, de-
slres and pursuit of the end to be attained are much the
same. 1t is therefore not strange that many incidents
of a business life should be a counterpart of %ragamuffin
days of boyhood when an urchin was followed or left
in the loneliness of solitude according to his cowardice,
or grit, determination and heroism.
With the advent of Studebakers New Creations in their

Duluth Boss
Leads Stools
Mob on Pickets
ESPECIAL to The Daily Workerl

DULUTH, MINI, June 1.-THE
Amalgamated Clothing Workers strike
at the F. A. Patrick firm, reached its
zenith when the bosses organized a
mob and attacked the strikers on the
picket line
Mr.. Ahern, the superintendent of
the firm, was the leader Of the mob
that numbered between three and four
hundred stool pigeons and loyal en-
ployes of the benevolent F. A. Pat
rick firm that made the heroic attack
on the strikers who were on the
picket line.
Just few minutes before the mob
attacked the strikers who were on the
picket line, Mr. Ahern was seen to
approach the two policemen that were
stationed in front Of the factory and
after short conversation with the
policemen Mr.. Ahern walked away
and the policemen disappeared. After
he had ordered his servants to leave
the premises, Mr.. Ahern used the alb
sence of the police to lead his mob
on the strikers with deliberate pur-
pose of using physical force and vi
olence against the strikers
A delegation of the strikers was
sent to make complaints to the chief
of police that they were not getting
the police protection that they were
rightfully entitled to. The chief of
police frankly stated the fact that he
was against the workers by making
the remark, that in the future it
would be worse and that the strikers
were lucky that none Of them were
killed.
Inspite of the bitter experience that
the strikers have gone thru they have
again resolved their determination to
stick to the end regardless Of the con-
sequences.
Some of the strikers were placed
under arrest after they were beaten
up and slugged. They are out on
bail.

FRENCH TEXTILE
WAGES ON BARE
EXISTENCE LEVEL
Associated Bosses Have
Scientific System
BY LELAND oLDs,

Federated Press Industrial Editor.)
Industrial serfdom has been devel-
oped automatically in the cotton
mill regions of France. Wage earners
receive a bare subsistence for a sin
gle individual which is adjusted to
changes in the cost of living.
Children are scientifically allowed
for by frugally figured supplementary
allowances. BY this system wage
costs are kept down to enable the
French cotton industry to undersell
the producers of cotton cloth in Great
Britain, the United States and other
industrial countries.
Mighty Low Wages.
Hourly wages in the Roubaix-Tour-
Going region, according to a depart
ment of commerce report, amount to
1915 francs for spinners, 1876 for
cardroom operatives, 1.946 for speed
tenders, 2.59 for weavers and 2O5
francs for ordinary labor. With the
franc worth less than cents, this
means hourly wages ranging from a
maximum of Is cents to a minimum of
about liz cents. And this one Of the
better districts in France.
The associated textile employers OF
the region supplement these wages in
the case of workers with families by
the following daily allowances: Fami-
lies one child, francs; two children,
5 francs; three children, s; four chill
dren, IL, and five children, Is francs.
In dollars and cents the daily subsidy
runs from about IL cents to families
with one child up to something less
than 80 cents in the case of families
with five children.
As Much in Eight Hours.
French employers are still protest.
ing the eight-hour day, which was one
of the results of the war But, accord
ing to the commerce report, they have
speeded up the workers to where pro-
duction per employee per day equals
the pre-war rate. Each worker tends
more machines. The French cotton
textile industry employs about 100000.

CREED OF FLUTES
Gets NOTHIN c,
SCIENTIST SHOWS
German Proves Long
Hours Lowers Production

(staff Correspondent Of the Fed. Press)
BERLIN, Germany, June lido
longer working hours mean increased
production? The scientific research
es Of Professor Otto Lippman, direc-
tor Of the Institute Of Applied Psyche
logy at Berlin, say no.
Lippman purposely left out of con-
sideration all Investigations regarding
the effect Of long working hours upon
the health Of the workers. He treats
the subject exclusively from the view
Of production.
One wrong assumption of employ
ers, the professor believes, is that bet.
ter use is made of machinery when
it is constantly in action. While a
machine running hours, does pro-
duce more than one running 8, there
are items that make the increase
illusory. These include heat, light,
power, depreciation, wages. When
these items are balanced against an
hours additional work, he shows they
cancel the supposed advantage, espe.
cially if the figures are for a period
like year.
A further factor is intensity of work
The greater the hours during which a
worker is at his Job, the less intensely
can he work toward the closing hours
To get the greatest production out
of given plant, Lippman suggests:
l. Pay wages that the worker does
not have to look for extra work during
off-hours. 2. Pay wages that the
worker can be well nourished. 8
Place him at the job he can handle
best and likes best 4. Insert longer
periods Of rest. s. Build the machines
to recognize the psychological needs
of the workers. If plants are organ
lied on this basis, there is no need Of
long hours. Eight or seven hours are
sufficient.

FASCIST XII KLUX
SMASHING MINERS
UNIONS OF SOUTH
Blackshirt Methods in
West Virginia
Especial 10 The Daily Worker)
(By STANLEY J. BROWN)

FAIRMONT. W. Va, June 1.-THE
Ku Klux Khan has gotten in its work
thruout the Fairmont coal regions,
! and open shop mines are opening
daily in Marion and Harrison counties
. with prospects that all will be non
union by September 1.
The night shutters started their
campaign of union smashing last July,
but progress was slow until three
months later when poison began to in
feet the mineworkers. The hatred
against the foreigners, which the khan
propaganda infected, kept American
miners away from the locals until
they lost interest, and in time they
more or less believed the bunk handed
them by the robed reformers. In the
excitement of red fire, brass bands,
and punk hymns, labor organizations
were forgotten by Americans, while
foreigners stood firm for their rights.
In Harrison county, where the khan
bosses used workers to destroy their
own unions they are also using them
in politics. In the late primary cleo
tions khan candidates won out for
almost every office. The duped nine
workers submitted to having their
ballots marked at the dictation of
county bosses, who get their instruc-
lions from Atlanta, Ga. A state Of
slavery. illiteracy, and hook worm.
Southern West Virginia has long
been slave pen for miners and now
the Northern part of the state is fall
ing into the same slough. A year ago
this section was solidly organized, and
try as they would, the coal barons
could not break it from the outside,
so klanism was invented to destroy 1t
within, and they have succeeded with
flying shirt-tails waved to the tunes Of
hymns of hate.
