VIRGIN ISLANDS CONDITIONS

"We often wonder whether we are
living under the sovereignty of a free
republic or that of a despotic monar-
chy Of the 18th century," declares The
Emancipator, organ of the native pop
ulation of the Virgin Islands. This
West Indies group was bought by the
United States from Denmark for
$25,000,000 in 1917. They flourished
happily under Danish administration
but American naval rule has reduced
the inhabitants to misery and pow
erty.
The U. S. commissions report on
the Virgin Islands states: "Unem-
ployment, inadequate wages, and even
hunger appear on every hand. There
is claim even that starvation is just
around the corner, unless means can
be had for immediate economic rehab-
ilitation, and, although the commits
sion found no record of any case of
actual starvation, the situation was
one to appall the most casual observ-
er.
"The people complain that they
could not be disfranchised by any lit
eracy qualification however high, be-
cause $3.50 of them are able to read
and write, but that they are disfran-
chised by money property qualifi-
cation with which they cannot COM
ply, because of wages ranging from
20 to 40 cents per day"

THE PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT
is INCREASING

Indications continue to multiply
that the Progressive movement is
growing rapidly in every part of the
country, and that La Folltete and
Wheeler will get an enormous vote.
1t is believed by many who have stud
led the trend of popular sentiment
that they will be elected by start
ling 'landslide." Politicians in the
old parties are freely admitting that
the Progressive vote may prevent the
attainment of a majority in the cleo
toral college for any candidates.
The independent vote must, Of
course, come in the main from the
old parties. From which will the
most of it be drawn? That is what
is worrying the politicians.
1t is too early in the campaign to
even try to predict what will happen
in November.
Were the contest simply between
Coolidge and Dawes on one side and
Davis and Bryan on the other, the
progressive elements would choose
Davis and Bryan as the lesser of two
evils. AS it is, these elements will go
almost solidly for La Toilette and
Wheeler, and the tendency will be all
the more pronounced as the La Fol-
lette ticket gains momentum.

Toronto, Ontario-At its annual
convention in this city the Interna-
tional Typographical unnion instruct
ed its A. F. of l.. delegates to "sup-
port the Endorsement of Robert M. La
Toilette as labor's candidate for pres
ident of the United States at the
forthcoming presidential election"
The convention indorsed the A. F.
of L. attitude toward courts by COM
mending the attitude Of their A. F.
of L. delegates for efforts to "curb
the powers of the courts by giving
congress final authority to express
the peoples will"
The convention refused to start a
labor bank or to adopt a five-day
week policy. A proposal to start
was referred to the exc
cutive board for consideration.

Samuel Gompers' editorial in The
American Federationist declaring
against legislation to prevent consol-
idations in the business world, and
demanding repeal of the ASti-trust
laws, was written before the Atlantic
City meeting Of the executive coun-
Gil Of the A. F. of L., at which unani-
nous endorsement of La Toilette and
Wheeler was voted, it was stated at
his office.
Gompers and the executive council
were declared to be absolutely and
intellectually for La Toilette and
Wheeler" it was explained, and the
federation statement on trust regu-
lation was aimed primarily at the Re-
publican and Democratic platforms.
Gompers is for the fullest possible
ascertainment and publication Of
facts as to business finances, and es-
pecially as to costs and profits,
through such agencies as the federal
trade commission. He would not of
fer a plan for controlling the lawless
and corrupting power of big business,
however, until more facts have been

Bakery Workers Union
Signs Up Many Shops
by Federated Press)

New York-A drive to organize t
bakery workers of Manhattan, Bronx
Astoria and Jersey City has been
launched by the Amalgamated Foor
Workers Union. Many of the small
er bakeries have already signed up
to give their bakery helpers The 10
per cent wage increase demanded.
The fight is being carried right into
the strongholds of the big scab bak-
cries such as Wards, United and
Schulze where 4OOO workers are un-
derpaid. Mass meetings of bakery
workers have been held in the various
districts and the union workers are
carrying the organization message
right into the shops to get rid of the
bad conditions which exist.
Special organizer Concadoro has
had such success with the Italian bak-
ers that a large new local has been
organized with two offices in Brook
lyn.

"CinCy" May Change
City Government

Cincinnati - For several months
Cincinnati citizens, disgusted with
their boss-controlled government,
have been circulating petitions asking
for an election at which it should be
determined whether the commission
manager form of government should
be adopted.
The plans called for nine commits
sioners to be elected by districts, pol
itics to be entirely eliminated and the
commissioners to run as independ-
ents.
The petitions were presented to
council, but the latter has ideas Of its
own, the main one being that politics
shall not be eliminated.
So council is to present another
plan. This calls for a manager to be
elected by councilmen, elected on
party tickets in each ward, the politi-
cal parties to retain full control of
the election machinery and officials.
This system would be as bad as at
