There was an avalanche of
shouts for roll call. On the
show of hands for a roll call
the tellers counted three votes
short of the necessary number.
The convention was on its feet
and bedlam broke loose.
Cries Of recount" and "give
US a square DEAL" came from
all parts of the hall. The chair
man gavelled for oder but
without any effect. A delegate
from Pennsylvania was assault
led by a sergeant-at-arms, dele
gates stood on their chairs and
a number of delegates started
for the platform. Lewis stood
smoking a cigar and called on
Van Bittner to continue the re-
port, but he could not be
heard. Administration sup
porters called Tor Van Bittner
to go on and yelled Put it
over"
Shouts for roll call continued.
Lewis shouted. "You may yell till

added fuel to the flames. Offlcials
of District IL are now fighting Lewis
on the issue of representation. The
gallery cheered and jeered LET Ca

Administration Rocked By
Progressive Showing

TOMLINSON HALL, IN
DIANAPOLIS, Indiana. - By
allowing paid organizers to
vote in defiance of the consti-
tuition, the Lewis Machine de-
feated the resolution to de-
prive the president of APP
pointive power by the narrow
margin of 157 votes. The un-
official count shows a still
smaller majority.
The total as checked up by
the administration tellers is
2,106 for the resolution, 1888
against.
Immediately after the announce
ment of the vote, following the af-
ternoon recess, Delegate Toohey of
District submitted the following
motion:
"Inasmuch as in the roll call vote
taken, upon the question of depriv-
ing the international president of
the power to appoint organizers,
field workers and others, there were
many who voted who were not en-
titled to vote under the terms Of the
constitution, therefore, there shall be
committee Of five elected from the
floor to check up on the vote taken
with the records of the organization
so that all votes illegally cast may
be eliminated from the grand total,
and that committee report back to
the convention as soon as possible. /"
Lewis declared this motion out of
order and would not allow 1t TO come
before the convention.

FARM EARNINGS
DROP

Washington.-The American far
mer is not getting an adequate return
on his investment or for his personal
labor, according to the department of
agriculture, following an investiga-
ton that has covered several years.
Estimating the labor of the farmer
and his family on the basis Of pay for
ordinary farm laborers, the return in
most cases is so low as to yield no
profit, or such small profit that it
is eaten up in interest charges.
Interest paid on total farm indebt-
edness consumed all capital earnings
in the crop years 1920-21 and 1921
22," says the report. "In the next
two years there was a return Of 81
per cent on the total capital invested
in agriculture, including rewards of
management.
Even this meager showing was
only made by valuing the labor Of
farm operators and their families at
no more than the current rate for
common labor. While agricultural
capital sa whole had only the small
returns above mentioned, it was pay
ing an average of more than 67 per
cent on mortgage and other indebted
ness"

LAW
EXPENDS MILLIONS

Albany, N. Y.-During the 10 years
the workmen's compensation law of

than $145, 100000 has been paid in
compensation and death benefits to
injured workmen and to the depend
ents of those killed in industrial acci
dents.
at is undoubtedly true" said In
dustrial Commissioner Shientag, that
ANY plan devised by the wit of man
in exceptional cases work unjustily,
but taking it by and large, expert
ence shows that this act has proven
a real benefit both to employers and
employees, and there is no sentiment
today for a return to the old unjust,
wasteful methods of common law
negligence actions.
"In view of the indiscriminate criti-
cism which is so prevalent in these
times, it is a great satisfaction to be
able to record the spirit of liberality
which duns through court decisions
in compensation cases and the alb
sence of those technicalities which SO
often made farce of the procedure
in common negligence actions"
