LIVE MEMBERS MAKE
SUCCESSFUL UNIONS
By John P. FREY

The story is told of two farmers
owning adjoining farms. AS the
years went by, one of them harvested
larger and much more profitable crops
than the other. The less successful
one spent much Of his time finding
fault with the weather, the political
party in power, Wall Street and ev-
erybody in general. He believed that
only fools became farmers, and also
that his neighbor had purchased fer
tile soil, whereas the land on his
own farm was poor and valueless. If
he only had the soil which his neigh
Dor owned, then he might be able
to accumulate money instead Of con-
tinually paying interest on a mort
gage.
The difference between the methods
Of the two men was that the unsuc-
cessful one took everything he could
out of the soil without putting some
thing back in return. He was un-
willing to go tosthe expense and the

labor of putting fertilizers into the
soil. He was trying to get all that
he could out of his land and put
nothing into it.
We find the same condition which
existed between these two farmers
among trade unions, the members Of
some continually complain that their
organization is no good; that ii does
nothing for them; they blame their
officers; they feel that their consti-
tuition is unsatisfactory, and that the
general policy Of the organization is
all wrong. They see other local
unions securing higher wages, better
shop conditions and establishing more
friendly relations with employers.
They do not credit these more sue
cessful unions with having establish
ed these conditions through their own
efforts and good judgment, but
imagine that they were merely more

CITY MAY WELL BE
PROUD, SAYS MR.. LONG

On July 81, the city of Longview
was dedicated with a great indus
trial pageant of progress, partici-
pated in by many cities of South
west Washington. On this occasion
R. A. Long, the man chiefly respon-
sible for this great achievement, sent
the following statement:
This indeed is a great day for
Longview, inasmuch as it and the
celebration days following commem-
crate the dedication of the city-its
first birthday.
think the word Pageant of Prog
ress well describe the development
of Longview; a steady, sturdy, ropid
transformation from fields and or
chards to homes, business houses and
manufacturing plants. The city
justly can be proud of its unusual
record of accomplishment. Its citi-
zens are to be congratulated upon
their spirit of cooperation and pro-
gressiveness. Longview is truly a
modern city.
Longview's progress has been very
great during the past year, but it
seems to me its future progress
should be greater. Ideally located in

ways; access to the worlds markets
an expertly planned, carefully devel-
open city; unexcelled climate; raw
materials; fuel and power, and q
beautiful surrounding country.
This, too, is one of the greatest
days in the history of The Long Bell
Lumber Company because it marks
the official opening of the company's
largest manufacturing plants and the
beginning of it's lumber operations
in the Pacific Northwest. The build
ing of these plants at Longview rep
resents a record of remarkable con-
struction progress-efficiently hand
led with no sacrifice of good construc-
ton and modern equipment and IA
cilities.
Today is a day of fulfllment of
years of planning and work that
have resulted in the company's great
est single achievement. And so,
these are happy days for us and we
are glad that so many people of the
Pacific Northwest and other states
are here to celebrate with US. We
are honored by your presence and
also by the presence of members of
the lumber industry in the Pacific
Northwest and many other sections of
the country.-R. A. Long, Chairman
Board of Directors.

(FrOm LOngview Daily News)


Longview has a lighting system
recognized as one of the finest in the
Northwest modern transportation
system; an adequate supply of pure
water and a complete sewage system.
In line with the policy Of the city
to do nothing to detract from the
beauty of the thoroughfares, Long
view has no street car service. In
stead eight buses give excellent
service from business to residential
sections, and from Longview through
West Kelso to Kelso. But recently
the service has been so improved that
residents of st. Helens and the
Highlands additions have a half hour
service through these two sections,
with cross town buses.
Up to and including July Is, 1924,

pany buses carried toal Of 572, 1892
persons. Comparative figures indi-
cate the rapid growth of this depart
ment. In June, 1923, 2O,8e9 passen-

Ferry Dock Moved


With the completion of the pave
ment of Oregon Way from Missouri
Boulevard to the Columbia river, the
Longview dock has been moved from
a point opposite Rainier approx
mately one-half mile down the river.
The new dock and slip is of the most
modern workmanship, and is provid-
ed with wide parkings and with

ways for pedestrians and vehicles

COUNTRY IS READY
FOR TAX DECREASES
Time for Congress to Quit Play
ing Politics and Get Down
to Brass Tacks
WI wv kSu ~ R gnu rupue",so",

bureau Of Publication and EducatiOn)
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 49,
The country is unanimous for tax
reduc ton, no matter which party is
sitting in the saddle, and people are
heartily tired of both parties play
ing politics while the folks back
home are bearing the burdens. Hence,
the cry goes up: Quit playing poll
tics and give US a genuine tax re-
duction."
Aroused by the action Of the Dem
ocratic caucus of the house of rep
resentatives in making the Garner
rates in the pending tax measure a
test of democracy, the American
Bankers league, through it's presi-
dent, issued a statement calling up
on it's membership to repudiate the
actions of any party caucus, by de-
manding Of congress a non-partisan
consideration of the measure.
I'VE challenge the authority of
any group of congressman to de-
throne the judgment or despoil the
wisdom of their colleagues or to
render invalid the constitutional
right of sovereign to instruct his
representative in congress-" the
statement read.
"The Garner rates are no more of
a test of democracy than they are a
test of religion. Such procedure
strikes down free institutions and
makes US government by politici-
ans, instead of a government by the
people. If this government is to
maintain the confidence of the Amer
can people, congressman must con-
suit them on fundamental princi-
piles and must realize that those
who pay the taxes have an equity in
this legislation that cannot be
abridged by a political caucus"
In other words it's time to quit
playing politics and get down to
brass tacks. If we are going to have
tax reduction it's time for men of
all parties to get together and put
through he needed legislation. Mem
bers of congress are not fooling the
people back home about this. The
way to get tax reduction is to vote
it and quit making so many political
speeches about it for home consump-
ton in the coming political cam
paign.
The Minnesota fiery cross. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1924-19??, 1924-02-29

from men who knew the inside of that
newspaper deal.
This will serve as a valuable les
son to others who let their tongues
wabble around on rumors circulated
by scandalmongers who have moth
ing. not even a reputation, to lose.
The surprise in this case is that a
man of Mr.. Vanderlip's standing and
reputation should stoop to give ut
terance to ugly rumors which had
no solid foundation. The committee
made him look like thirty cents when
he was on the witness stand, and he
too has learned lesson, but through
a tremendous sacrifice to himself.
It's bad enough to say such things
about living president, but when a
man attacks the dead who cannot de-
fend, it's STOPPING to level to which
no man, let alone banker of promi-
hence, cares to descend.
Insurgents Insurging
The house insurgents are again in
surging by joining the house Demo-
Gratis to defeat the Mellon income
tax rates. The II insurgents spurned
all the amendments offered, and vot-
ed with the Democrats, and they.
holding the balance of power, gave
the regular Republicans a licking to
the tune of 222 to 1876. The Garner
Democratic income tax substitute
was adopted instead. 1t provides
normal taxes of two per cent on in
comes Of less than $1,000; four per
cent on incomes between $4,000 and
$4,000; 6 per cent on incomes exceed
ing $1,000.
A graduated surtax scale beginning
at l per cent on incomes between
$4,000 and $4,000, up to a maxi
mum of A per cent on incomes ex-
ceeding S92. 900. Exemption of $4,000
for single persons and $4,000 for

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 49,
Now that the senate has confirmed
both Atlee Pomerene, of Ohio, and
Owen j. Roberts, of Philadelphia, as
attorneys for the government in the
prosecution of the noted oil cases,
injunctions will be filed as quickly
as possible to retain the Doheny in

from extracting any further oil from
the leased areas in Teapot Dome and
Elk Hills reserves, it is announced.
After a conference with President
Coolidge the attorneys said: eve are
going to move swiftly in this matter,
but with the proper amount of eau
ton. Whatever we do, we want to be
as near uncriticizable as possible.
The biggest task ahead of us is to
sift through the immense amount of
evidence abducted to the Senate in

going to take some time"

MAYFIELD BALLOTS
UNDER LOCK AND KEY
DISTINGUISHED Parties Selected to
Make Count in Texas
Contest

Bureau of Publication and Educ atom
WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 49,
Substantially all of the ballots OBJ
tainable in the Texas senatorial
election contest have arrived in
Washington where they are under
lock and key and are being guarded
day and night by three guardsmen,
hired and paid by the United States
senate. These guards work eight
hours to a shift and they are armed
to the teeth to enforce their author
ity. No one is permitted to enter
the rooms where the ballots are
kept except the guard while on
duty.
Attorneys for Mr.. Peddy, of Texas,
who is contesting the seat held by
Senator Mayfeld of Texas, have
agreed with attorneys for Senator
Mayfield in selecting Washington
men, disinterested parties, to count
the ballots in the presence of the
subcommittee Of the senate commit
tee on privileges and elections. This
count begins tomorrow and it is es-
timated that it will take a full
month to complete the count. Ses-
sions are to be held daily, except
Sunday, at 9 a. m. and 2 p. m, and
it is predicted that these counters
and the subcommittee will stick to
the job until finished.

Cross Suspended
In Air Blazes at
Klemme, Iowa

KLEMME, IA, Feb. 20.-One of
the most unique innovations in the
burning of fiery cross that has yet
been tried, was carried out here last
Thursday evening when the blazing
emblem of the Knights of the ku
Klux Khan was suspended in mid-air
on a wire stretched between two
buildings. Apparently there was
nothing supporting the cross, and it
made a most impressive sight to the
people in the street.
The cross was burned near a dance
hall where a disorderly crowd is in
the habit of congregating. Thursday
most of those in the hall came out to
view the cross. Five dancers, young
men from Goodell, Iowa, town near
here, attempted to tear down the
cross.
1t was not until the town marshal
learned of their activities that they
ceased and were ordered to leave
town.
Two aerial bombs were exploded.
and it was only few moments until
hundreds Of people filled the street.
