KEEP RUBBISH OFF
LAMBERTVILLE STREETS

A most important notice was
omitted from report of proceedings
of iCty Commission last week.
Merchants and others were warned
not to sweep paper and other refuse
in the street.
Attention was called to the fact
that anyone throwing paper, includ-
ing circulars or any other refuse
in the street, was liable to a penalty
and an attempt would be made to
enforce the same if necessary.
Citizens should also take notice
that garbage and other refuse for
the collector must be placed in con-
tainers not on them and paper must
be securely tied in bundles.

Director of Streets.

Conscription of Labor
Big Business Approves

provided. This was the rule, on a
Regulation of capital is not un-
usual. In peace time the railroads
and other public utilities are regulat-
ed.
1t is now proposed to simply extend
this regulation to all industry during
war time. This will appeal to long
headed business men. 1t will tend to
check initiation, which raises prices
and causes popular unrest.
There will be profits under price
regulation, though probably not so
dangerously high as during the world
war.
Big business may be willing to ac-
cept less tremendous profits, as this
is too great a strain on the financial
structure and breeds an ugly spirit
among the populace.
In return for limiting profits to a
reasonable" figure big business
hopes to secure the one thing it longs
for-the control of workers.
1t is planned to conscript labor. The
worker will have no voice in his work
or his wages.
Statesmen, business men and mill
tary men agree to this, while their
publicity agents sugar-coat the plan
by sly and untruthful reference to
transcription of capital"
Big business is not frightened. 1t
understands. 1t helps spread the fic-
ton that the proposed regulation of
capital is sure-enough "conscription. "
Labor believes there should be no
favorites in the hour of common peril.
When the nation is fighting for its
existence there should be no privileg-
ed classes and no profits, even though
these be reasonable"
But special privilege will not agree
to this. 1t comedies nothing. Instead,
it would have the people believe it
yields in a national crisis, while it
plans to come out of the next war
with increased power.
Control Of prices is necessary for
big business. Sky-rocketing values
make labor restless.
If the workers are not brought to a
fighting pitch because of profiteer-
ing, big business is hopeful that war
time conscription can be more easily
enforced.
If the workers do not object too
strongly to being the only ones who
are conscripted in war time, big bus
mess will try to continue the system
in peace time.
To make this possible the dollar
must be held within reasonable"
bounds while the people are drugged
by fairy tales of "conscripted capi-
tal."
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1924-04-11

Several proposals are pending in
congress to "conscript capital and
labor at the next national emer-
gency."
The term national emergency is
not defined. 1t may mean anything.
One of these proposals would au-
thorize the president to draft such
members of the unorganized militia
as may be deemed necessary" when
ever congress declares "a national
emergency" exists.
This would supplement the labor
injunction, and would be a handy
weapon for big business when con-
fronted by an extensive strike.
The French government used this
method several years ago when rail
road strikers were "called to the col
ors." These workers, then in the uni
form of the French army, were COM
PEELED to break their own strike.
Aside from this sinister feature OF
the proposal, there is no intention to
conscript capital.
1t is regulation of capital-prlc:e
fixing by the government-that is

DRY HAUL THIS TIME

Last Sunday afternoon while the
Mayor and one of our city policemen
were enjoying a sun bath in front of
the Home Building Association and
another cop was doing likewise on the
Emerson corner a citizen of Newark,
carrying a valise, alighted on the
crossing from a Columbus bus.
Immediately all was activity; the
eagle eye of the law had spotted him
instantly, three pair of official legs
made a dash and three pair of eager
hands grasped him firmly by the
shoulders and other parts of his
anatomy.
He was ordered to gather up his
luggage and forthwith HE with them
to the central police station. "Not on
your life," replied the victim, "I'll go
along all right, but if you want the
grip, you'll carry it yourself"
So lines were formed, and in close
order the parade marched to the pa
troll house. The mysterious satchel
was opened and found to contain
masculine wearing apparel duly and
legally authorized to be worn by an
adult male. "Only this and nothing
more"

Courts Guard Property
Ignore Workers Rights

The United States supreme court
has ruled that the federal trade COM
mission can not examine the books of
the American tobacco company to
make a case against it.
The court opposes a Fishing eXpe-
dition" into the corporations papers
in the hope that criminal action may
be exposed. The court said:
Common justice would seem to de-
mand that before the business meth
DDS pursued by corporation or an
individual should be investigated, the
party should be apprised either by a
formal order or by notice of the ex-
tent of the proposed investigation, in
order that day in court may be ac-
corded.
"This is essential to determining
whether the commission is acting
within its jurisdiction and to meet the
charges preferred"
This solicitous regard for the
rights Of property is in startling con-
trast to the disregard Of the rights
Of human beings when workers are
arrested, fined and jailed by an in
junction Judge.
Then there is no demand that
workers "have their day in court" or
that Specific charges" be filed
against them.
Under the equity process courts
issue orders that were never intended
to apply to personal relations or hu-
man rights.
The law protects the meanest Grim
inal in his right to be considered in
nOcant Dntil nrOUan OlliltU
The United States supreme court
now throws its protecting arm around
the books of corporations. These
must not be touched until specific
charges are filed, says the court.
But note what happens when an
employers attorney tells an equity
judge his injunction is being violated
Workers are arrested en- bloc
Every right is swept from them.
They are at the mercy Of the injunc-
tion judge, who calls on them to
"show cause why they should not be
punished for contempt"
That is what the court says, but
this is what the court means:
81 consider you guilty of violating
my injunction. If you can not prove
to my satisfaction that you did not
violate it | will sentence you to Jail.
There is no law or court rule to
guide the injunction judge. There is
no trial by jury. The worker is not
presumed to be innocent, and the
judge is privileged to give full sweep

CHILD LABOR
FAVORS AN AMENDMENT TO
END CHILD LABOR
Judiciary Committee Will Report
FavOrably on Proposed Addition
to the Constitution

Washington-The house judiciary
committee has ordered favorable re-
port on the joint resolution offered by
Congressman Foster proposing an
amendment to the constitution grant
ing congress the power to prohibit
child labor.
The amendment is short and easily
understood Section / gives congress
the power to limit, regulate and pro-
hibit the labor of persons under 18
years of age"
Section 2 declares that the power
of the several states to regulate their
own affairs shall be unimpaired by
this amendment except in the case of
child labor, which will hereafter be
considered federal question.
The amendment is the result of two
failures by congress to regulate child
labor. The first law, passed in 1916,
sought to close interstate commerce.
to the products of child labor. 1t was
in operation nine months when it was
declared unconstitutional by the
United States supreme court. In
1919 congress made its second at
tempt to regulate child labor by levy
ing a 10 per cent tax on the net prof
its of establishments which employ
children contrary to certain stand
ards. This act was also set aside by
the supreme court.
Advocates of the second law were
confident the court would uphold this
legislation, which was intended to tax
the child labor evil out of existence.
The court had previously upheld the
state bank tax, the oleomargarine tax
and other legislation whose purpose
was similar to the child labor tax.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1924-04-11

to his economic prejudices and class
hates.
An act that is legal when no strike
exists is base conspiracy in the eyes
of an injunction Judge when workers
are forced on strike to raise their liv-
ing standard.
What would happen to that Judge
if he took this position with a horse
thief or with corporation charged
with monopolistic practices?
The question answers itself
When workers demand the same
treatment accorded that horse thief
or corporation, they are accused of
wanting to violate the law"
The labor injunction undermines
our entire system of government.
1t is revolutionary; it is cowardly
and unfair
Under it Judge not only usurps
power, but he corrodes the popular
mind to defend his usurpation.
The labor injunction has no place
in the life of America. Workers will
agitate against it until an enlighten-
ed public opinion drives ii into obliv-

Child Protection

Washington Organized labor's
approval of the May day child health
program of the American child health
association is announced by President

ers, "that the organized wage work
ers will gladly do their full share in
support of the work undertaken by
your organization. 1t is one of the
first concerns of the trade union

tions established which make possible
the proper care and development of

that direction is to be welcomed and
encouraged"
