UNIONISTS MOBBED

West Baden, Ind.-Ordered out
OF Flat River, Mo-, by a mob, trade
unionists told the story of this out
rage to George Van Fleet, concil-
iator of the federal department of
labor.
A. F. of L. Organized Flood, Ed
ward Carbine, representing the
Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers
international union, and two local
members of organized workers,
were victims of the mob's fury,
when newly formed union of lead
workers struck rather than con-
tinue employment where rocks fell
from the roof of the mine.
Complaint was first made to
Governor Hyde regarding condi-
tions in the Flat River lead mines.
The chief mine inspector visited
the mines. The union deputized
two members to point out the dan
gerous places, but they were de-
MED admittance to the property
and were discharged. The falling
rock continued, and the miners
suspended work.
At the hearing held by Concilia-
tor Van Fleet the unionists made
affidavits that an orderly parade
OF the strikers was stopped by a
mob armed with high-powered
rifles, and the marchers turned
back while the sheriff of the
county watched the proceedings
and officials of the lead company
encouraged the mob.
Later the unionists were told to
leave that section if they value
their lives.

Washington - Collusion between
the Republican administration at
Washington and American sugar mo-
nopolists to. maintain excessively
profitable sugar prices is charged in
a statement from Sen. LaFollette. He
fires broadside at the conspiracy by
which the tariff commission report on
the cost of producing sugar has been
withheld from the public Already,
he shows, officials have connived at
the taking of tens of millions of dol
lars from American consumers.
''It is we'll known" says LaFollette,
"that representatives of the sugar in
terests have been busy in Washing
ton actively using every influence and
device to delay the completion of the
investigation and the publication of
the report. l have reason to believe
that they have been powerful enough
to delay through the highest official
channels of this government the final
decision of the tariff commission and
that attempts have been made to in
timidate and otherwise obstruct the
action of that body.
"The investigation was ordered
nearly 18 months ago following dis
closures that the Republican chair
man of the senate finance committee
(Smoot) acting in conjunction with
a member of the presidents cabinet
(Hoover) had sought to use the tariff
making powers as means to compel
Cuban sugar growers to reduce their
production and thus increase sugar
prices to American consumers"
In addition to the pressure which
Smoot, Hoover, Gen. Crowder and C.
C. Hamlin, lobbying for the beet sug-
ar interests, brought to bear on a
delegation from Cuba to secure an arr

GIRLS ARE JAILED

Rock Island, Ill. - Two girl
strikers and two male strikers
have been sentenced to Jail for 60
days and 80 days, respectively, by
Circuit Judge Church for alleged
violation of his injunction.
The strikers are employed at the
Boone .woolen mills, a notorious
low-wage establishment. Previ-
ously one of the strikers was ar
rested on a forgery charge and
kidnapped into Iowa, but the crude
frame-up collapsed.
The company is attempting to
enforce the "yellow dog" This is
contract which provides that the
worker who signs the document
agrees not to join union or inter-
est others in union while he is so
employed. :.
Such a contract an employe is
forced to sign under economic
pressure, is no different than a
contract signed at the point of a
gun, said Editor Reagan of the
Tn-City Labor Review.
Gust imagine, if you can, the
case reversed" the labor editor
said. Suppose there was a great
labor shortage, and the Boone
woolen mills was deluged with or
ders, when the workers, 100 per
cent organized, demanded that the
management sign a contract that
it will not join the Garment man
ufacturers' association Or allied or
ganizations. Do you imagine a
contract obtained under these con-
ditions would be legal?"

Will Boycott Prison Brick

Observation-Disclosures locals have
received an order from the Michigan
State Conference of Bricklayers to
refuse to lay any more brick made in
the Michigan state prison at Jackson,
the capacity of which is about 100000
brick day. No objection was made
to prison brick used in state work but
convict brick is now being used by
private contractors.

THE VACANCY FILLED

There was considerable log rolling
and wire pulling over the matter of
selecting the successor of Clarence
Fulke who quit his job as first ward
councilman couple of weeks ago,
when invited by His Honor the Mayor
to come up higher.
Even the council in secret caucus
could not make a choice as was evil
denced when a vote was taken at the
regular meeting Monday night, when
Leo Davis copped the job-the ballot
standing Leo Davis, 5; F. c. Bailey,
2; w. E. Little, /.
Several other candidates were con-
sidered, it is said, all good men, but
the lightning struck "Sneed."

WHY ONLY IN OHIO?

Jay Cooper, Harry Hale, Doc Lew
is, George Meier, and Frank Neigh
Dor, some of the boys who recently
returned from the Elks Convention at
Boston, report a bully good time. The
Boston boys entertained them in royal
, style; and everything was at their
disposal, it was a veritable land flow
ing with milk, and honey, "etc."
They discovered that as soon as
the Ohio line was crossed the "etc."
was taken as matter of course, but
were surprised that virtuous old Bos-
ton was so easy.
By the way would not this city
furnish a good missionary field for
the boy who CLOCKS like Mckinley and,
talks like Bryan?"

FOOL ORDINANCE REPEALED

The city council deserves COM
mendation for repeating the damphool
ordinance prohibiting the parking of
automobiles on the public square
from midnight until five o'clock next
morning.
This ordinance, which has been a
dead letter for long time, was just
recently resurrected by the police de-
partment and rigidly enforced to the
limit. Probably no single law has
caused more inconvenience, bother
and good heartfelt deep down cussing
