Black Powder
Menaces Miners,
Profits Bosses

Between 1908 and 1928 II explos-
ions in the coal mines Of the United
States have been caused directly by
black blasting powder and dynamite,
according to the United States bureau
of mines. These disasters killed S57
men and injured 173 others.
Disasters of this kind have con-
tinued in spite of the fact that the
government he's stressed the special
dangers of black blasting powder in
gassy and dusty mines. The interior
department of which the bureau is a
part issues a warning that the con.
tinued use of this explosive consti-
tutes a great menace to the lives of
miners. Combinations Of black blast
ing powder and gas or coal dust, II
states, are vicious hazards all OF
which have resulted in terrible disas-
ters.
The callousness Of the powder
trust when the lives Of wage earners
are concerned is illustrated by its
failure to design safe keg for the
marketing of black powder. These

tinue, according to the interior de-
partment, to market this most dan

Charles Levermore of Brooklyn,
N. Y, winner of the Box peace award
probably will have to forego that ex-
ira $4,000 he was to get if the sen.
ate approved his plan.
The senate may approve it at some
future date, but not this session. A
bill embodying the plan has not been
introduced by sympathetic senator
and that is essential to get the sen.
ate's opinion OF it.
Levermore has one other chance
to get the $4,000, and that is by pop
ular Endorsement Of his plan in the
nationwide referendum. A provision
was inserted in the conditions of the
award to this effect, possibly in view
OF the senate's balky action.

FRENCH CARY
USING FILMS TO
DOPE WORKERS
Out to Surpass Dead
SHINES Record
BY PAUL HoYER

(Staff Correspondent Of the Fed. Press)
PARIS, France. is the power
behind the French national bloc that
controlled policy until the resignation
of Premier Poincare?
Commonly it is said that Poincare
is the tool of the French steel trust,
the Comites des Forges. But this COM
mittee is dominated by a single person
who is to France what SHINES was
to Germany, or what Gary is to the
United States.
His name is Billet, and he is presi-
dent Of the Union des Interests Eco
nomiques, the great Federation of Eco
nomic Interests of France. Il is Bill
liet to whom Poincare bowed in the
last analysis In fact, when the Poin-
care cabinet fell the other day, it was
Billet whom the president Of the re-
public, Millerand, received first.
Billet controls sugar, oil, the mines
and other undertakings. He is man
euvering to get the state tobacco mon
opoly into his hands. He would like
to annex the telegraphs and tele-
phones, now owned by the state, the
railways and arsenals. and a few
other industries. He persuaded Poin-
care to hand over to friend OF his
the state monopoly in matches.
Recently he has used the moving
pictures. He is offering propaganda
films free of charge thruout the coun-
try. In the accompanying letter he
says:
1--WE have issued two propaganda
films. One, THE Threat" is a roman
tic comedy, illustrating the dangers of
the capital levy; the other, Line
Busy" is an amusing farce, showing
up the ineficiency Of the state tele-
phone monopoly"

WIN VICTORY
over BOSSES
Equity Now Has Ten
Thousand Members

NEW YORK, June 9.-"It's all over
but the mopping up" said President
John Emerson, Actors Equity Asso-
citation. American Federation of La
Dor, in describing to the annual meet
ing Of the union in New York the
unions victory in securing ten-year
Equity contract with practically all
the theatrical producers.
On June /, the expiration Of the old
contract, only seven productions re-
mained which had not signed with the
union. These have been closed by
the walkout Of The 1T actors. Two of
the shows are expected to reopen
soon with union conditions.
The annual meeting, which was in
the nature Of a victory demonstra-
tion, reelected the Equity board by
acclimation. Beginning with three
members in 1918 the union now has
over 100000 members, constituting
about 80 per cent of the legitimate
theater casts. Equity now controls
the profession. The new contract
provides for so per cent Equity casts,
and does not touch wages and hours.
The anti-union managers Of the
struck productions must either sign
independent contracts granting 100
per cent Equity casts or permit the
Producing Managers Association to
take over the union contracts signed
by the new Managers Protective AS
sociation. Managers in the former
organization desiring settlement
with Equity formed the latter associa-
tion when the die-hard producers
blocked an agreement.

AUSTRALIA MAY
DESERT BRITAIN
FOR UNCLE SAM
Labor Rule in Dutch on
Trade Break
BY W. FRANCIS AHERN.

estate Correspondent Of the Fed. Press)
SYDNEY, N. S. W.-The decision
OF the British Labor government not
to accept the imperial preference pro-
gram of the Australian prime min
lister at the imperial conference held
at London last November, has caused
CONSERVATION among the wealthy pro-
ducing and exporting interests in Aus
tralia. United States commerce with
Australia will probably be the gamer.
The Australian program was that
Britain should give preference to Aus
trElian products by tariffs on food
stuffs. This would mean a dearer
breakfast table for the British people
and they refused sanction at the last
election. This caused the defeat of
the Baldwin government and brought
Labor into power, pledged to institute
cheaper breakfast table.
When the British Labor government
turned down trade preference, the
Australian federal government threat
, ened reprisals At Melbourne the
Australian prime minister said: "If
we cannot obtain the trade relations
we desire with Britain, we will have
to go elsewhere"
This threat was apparently issued
without a consideration of the fact
that Britain is Australia's best Gus
toner and always had been. In but
ter, wheat, wool, beef, mutton, lamb,
timed meats, and other products,
Britain takes the preponderance OF
supplies from Australia.
At present the trend is towards
trade agreements with other countries
prepared TO give concessions to Aus
tralia. This move will tend to increase
trade between Australia and the
United States and Canada and also
with other countries. Trade negotia
tions are proceeding with Canada, and
similar move will be made with the
United States in the near future.
