 Washington, D. C., Jan. 4.-Ex- pressing the hope that report may be had from the Senate Judiciary Committee on the proposed Chile Labor Constitutional Amendment al an early date, Senator Medill McCor- mick has written to President Samue Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, explaining the present status of the measure and expressing hope for prompt action.
 The proposed. amendment intro duced in the Senate by Senator Nc Cormick is backed by group of six teen national organizations brought together by the president of the American Federation of Labor for that purpose.
 "As you know" said Senator Mo Cormick i'll his letter to President Gompefs, '1 have introduced the text of the Child Labor Amendment drafted by the distinguished lawyers whom we called in consultation, and unanimously approved by the com mittee of the National Child Labor Conference which you convoked. The facts regarding the industrial ex- ploitation of American children were presented to the Judiciary Commit tee of the Senate in the last Con- gresS.
 We shall ask our legal advisers in the Senate and elsewhere to hold themselves in readiness to explain to the Judiciary Committee the reason for our agreement upon the terms of the Child Labor Amend ment which I introduced in lieu of that reported to the Senate at the last session. 1 hope that argument upon the text of the amendment may not be unduly delayed. I hope that a report may be had before long to the end that we may not dongerous- ly and cruelty postpone action by Congress and the state legislatures upon a child labor amendment.
 "All of Us who are opposed to the ruinous exploitation of American childhood are indebted to you and to the members of your committee who gathered so promptly at your call, and who so decisive1y and sympa- thetically collaborated with us of the Senate. Let me congratulate you up on the energy and tact with which you yourself acted.
 "The time has come, I think, when all the organizations supporting the cause to which we are committed, should take appropriate steps to make plain their desire that Congress shall go forward with the work in which America first led the way but which since that day has been thwarted and delayed through tffe decisions of the Supreme Court"

SENATOR MCCORMACK SEES HOPE FOR QUICK ACTION ON
 CHILD LABOR AMENDMENT

urer of the Quaker City organization. He says:
 'We have enabled workers to buy good homes without undergoing f. nancial hardship. The first payment IS $I,ooo. After that the homes can be paid for at the rate of $824 a month Under such conditions, it is not risky to prophecy that the move ment will continue to grow until it will be big, factor in solving the housing problem"
 The funds for the erection of the nine houses were raised by the sale o fstock to union men and to the pub lie.
 Through sale of stock about $8,ooo was raised. That was sufficient to finance the purchase of land in Up- land street, and to start construction. Funds to carry on the building-to pay the union laborers and to pur- chase materials-were advanced by the Producers and Consumers Bank, Chestnut street and Ninth, which also IS a cooperative labor institution.

Railway Clerks Open Bank; Fedora
 ton Bank Gains
By International Labor News Service

By International Labor News Service Washington, D. C., Jan. 4.-The number of labor banks is still grow ing. The latest labor organization to open bank is the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, which has just open ed national bank in the new seven story building erected by the Broth erhood in. Cincinnati, o.
 Over twelve thousand persons wis ited the bank on opening day to in spect the beautiful new banking rooms, leaving $3II,ooo in deposits. At the end of the day the banks total assets amounted to $755,ooo. Ii is capitalized at $2oo,ooo, with a sur plus of $5o,ooo. Among the large de- posits was one for $5o,ooo made by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. The Brotherhood of Railway Clerks National Bank is cooperative in that shareholders dividends are limited to 10 per cent. and profits in excess thereof are distributed among sav- ings depositors
 To make the bank serve the Broth erhood's large membership through out the United States and Canada, as well as workers in general, a system of banking by mail has been per fected. Arrangements are also be- ing made with correspondent banks in other cities which will accept de- posits for the Brotherhood bank.
 In New York City, the union owned Federation Bank is making a rapid growth. The banks resources have increased from $5oo,ooo on May Io, 1923, to $3,7oo, ,ooo, and are expected to reach the $4,ooo, ,ooo mark within a short time, according to Peter J. Brady, president.
 The Central Trades and Labor Council of New York, which was ac tive in founding the Federation Bank, recently attacked the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Broth erhood Investment Company, the holding company for the bank which the engineers are to open in New York. Resolutions adopted by the council charge that the Brotherhood representatives, in selling stock for the new bank, are claiming that the Brotherhood IS a strong advocate of the "open shop" and has never in dulged in sympathetic strike. The council resolutions declare that the Brotherhood Investment Company is not entitled to either the support or cooperation of organized labor.

NO TAX REDUCTION
 FOR BROTHERS

Washington, Jan. 6.-No income tax reduction for the millionaire and the profteer, was Senator Simmons challenge in discussing proposed in come tax reductions.
 The lawmaker said he used the term millionaire" not in an oppro- brious sense, but for the purpose of characterization This is Senator Simmons reason for favoring no tax reduction for these classes:
 "So long as profteering is going on in this country, as 1t Is now going on continually, so long as the people who are demanding this reduction are making enormous fortunes out of the consumers of this country, fortunes year by year that are incredible, with their enormous dividends, all as re- suit of prohteering upon the people, keeping the prices of products up to the war standard, mercilessly preying upon the poor people of the country, upon the farmer-preying upon this great class whose earning capacity has been dissipated; preying upon the laborer, upon the clerk, upon the man trying to live upon his salary and un- upon them by the imposition of prices that in some instances are many times in excess of the cost of production, that are unjustifed and unwarranted, more unjustihed and unwarranted than they were in war time-so long as that Is going on in this country, MT. President, 1 am utterly opposed to exemptlng those receiving the higher incomes from heavy burden in connection with the payment of the expenses O fthe government"

Press, including the following sum- ming up of the Federated Press at titude:
 We found throughout the Feder- |ated Press service a continued domi- nation of the news by articles relat- ing to the l. w. w., the so-called amalgamation movement, political prisoners, the Communist party, the Workers party, the. Socialist party and Russian affairs. That is to say pro revolutionary, anti American that there is a continuous tide flow ing through the Federated Press serv- ice of a pro-Soviet, pro-Communist Federation of Labor character"
 At the end of the conventions re- port, The Citizen says:
 "As a result of the position of the American Federation of Labor on the Federated Press, the board of pub fishers of The Citizen, representing the Los Angeles Central Labor Coun- cil, chartered direct by the American Federation of Labor, and the three department councils of the Los An geles Central Labor Council-name- ly, the Allied Printing Trades Coun- cil, the Los Angeles Building Trades Counci land the Metal Trades Coun- cil-had discontinued its subscription to the news service of the Federated Press. The action of the board ot publishers has been concurred in by the Central Labor Council and the three department councils, which function for the Organized Labor Movement of Los Angeles, the own CT of The Citizen"
 The severance of relations between The Citizen and the Federated Press is regarded as one of the hardest blows the Federated Press has re- ceived since the A. F. of L. conven- tion The Citizen is one of the most ably edited labor papers in the coun- try and has large circualtion and far reaching influence on the Pacific Coast
