STEEL TRUST REAPS RICH PLUMBER

Ollie church, a gorgeous new building
costing thousands of dollars, and the
Slovack Greek church, with father Lu-
cas- in his twelve-room brick priest
house, all of which are on this block,
all received money from the steel
trust, old residents Of the town stated,
either to build new churches or to
keep their church going.
Directly across from these churches
is the commodious armory where the
18th engineers regiment is stationed.
The armory, which covers an entire
block, was built on land originally
owned by the steel trust.
After buying these houses for ex.
horbitant prices, living in the shadow
of the steel trust churches and the
guns of the soldiers, the steel workers
must pay monthly doles to the Gary
Gas, Heat and Water company, which
is also owned by the steel corporation.
The minimum charge for gas paid to
the steel trust Golfers is $100 every
month, the minimum charge for cleo
tricity $1,00 per month, and for water
rs cents per month. The rate charged
for water by the steel trust averages
$500 per year more than the rate
charged for water in Chicago. The
Chicago charge for gas, is 95 cents
per 1000 cubic feet, but the steel trust
charges $1.OO per 1000 cubic feet or
five cents more for every 1000 cubic
feet than is charged in Chicago.
Holds Monopoly on Housing.
The steel trust is carrying its feudal
system of control of the workers to
greater extent in the erection Of the
new tube works on the eastern edge
of the city. Several hundred houses
are being built there in which workers
will be practically forced to live be-
cause of the monopoly on Gary hous
ing held by the steel trust.
Every device is used by the steel
trust to control the working and hous
ing conditions, the living expenses, the
working hours and wages, the stand
ard of living and even the religion of
the Gary slaves. Because they have
no union the steel trust slaves have
no control over their own lives.

DETROIT.-There has been a good
deal of conversation and publicity
about the Legitimate profits" of CAPT
talists, the impression being given
that legitimacy ended at about 6 per
cent. Sen. James Couzens of Michi-
gan, addressing a Kiwanis convention
at Ann Arbor, defended his ownership
of millions of tax-exempt government
bonds as follows: 1.-THE average price
on federal, state or municipal bonds
is between A and 41a per cent. In
other words, despite the surtax,
would have been much better off If /
had invested my capital in manufac-
turing interests and received only the
average return Of IL per cent than
am after having invested in tax-ex-
empt governmental bonds"

POLICE ATTACK
STRIKE THRONG
AT PATERSON
Tried to Assemble in
Front of City Hall

PATERSON, NJ. j., Oct. T.
The Paterson police, after re-
fusing the striking silk workers
here permission to meet in their
hall, Monday night charged into
a crowd of over 1000 strikers,
arresting fifteen, beating others
with their clubs and riding
rough-shod over the crowd of
men and women.
The strikers, led by Louise
and Alice Kimball, marched
from in front of Turn Hall,
where they were locked out by
the police, to the city hall,
where open air meetings were
started.
The police arrested John G. Butter
worth, who was addressing the crowd,
and charged into the peaceful assemb-
lage swinging their clubs on the heads
of men and women alike.
Police Sergeant Kelliher ordered
the raid on the crowd, altho it is well
known here that the silk mill bosses
are enraged at the success of the
strike and are using brutal violence
as a last desperate means to keep the
silk workers from victory.

Tribune ON ITS
list OF SCADS
Non-UniOn Work Puts
Up Newspapers TOwer

Another indictment of the
open shop Chicago Tribune, as
an enemy of labor, was added
to the list of many condemna-
tions by labor organizations,
Monday night, when the Paint
ers' district council No. IA, haV-
ing Jurisdiction over all the
painters in Cook County, placed
the Chicago Tribune on the un-
fair list.
The Painters District Council,
which has for many years
looked with an unfriendly eye
on the anti-labor union activi-
ties of the Tribune, declares the
Chicago Tribune to be unfair to
organized labor because it has
let the contracts for the "Tri-
bune Tower" to non-union con-
tractors.
Work Under Lands Award.
The paining for the Tribune tower
will be done by the firm of ]. B.
NOZZLE, which does its work under the
infamous open shop" Lands award
Between thirty and forty painters
are to do painting work on the Trib-
une tower under the scab working
conditions.
When the Tribune Office was asked
for a statement with regard to the let
ting of their contracts to non-union
firms, no one in he Tribune organiza-
ton seemed to know anything about
the matter. Mr.. Cadell, in tho Office
where the contracts were let, refused
to make any statement to the DAILY
WORKER.
A secretary to the business manager
told the DAILY WORKER: "Our at
titude is we'll known to organized Ia
Dor. The union men know we are
friendly to them"
When asked by the DAILY WORK.
Err reporter if it didn't seem a little
inconsistent to let contracts to non.
union firms he secretary replied that

Praise Open Shop Plan.
This worthy gentleman, who has
charge of the letting of the contracts
was strangely absent, but his office
referred the DAILY WORKER to the
business manager of the Tribune
There is was stated that the business
manager was out of town, and no
statement could be made by the Trib-
une until his return. Representatives
of the company were loud in their
praise of the lands award" which is
a fancy name for open shop" non

MOTION PICTURES FOR FARMER
Farm Bureau Shows By Illustration
Importance of Cooperative Marketing

Farm Bureau Shows By Illustration
Importance of Cooperative Marketing
"Fhis is the best farmers motion
picture show l ever saw" said George
c. Burge, chairman of the Middletown
Farm Bureau, following the meeting
held Friday afternoon. The films have
been secured from Chicago by the
Farm Bureau at considerable expense,
but the executive committee is de-
lighted with them. They portray in
no questionable way the value of CO.
operative effort among farmers and
end leaving the audience in a tumult
of laughter. Following the reels, E.
F. Barker, an officer of the Maryland
State Grange and an active farm bu-
reau member, made an animated ad-
dress revealing some of the advant-
ages, farmers could reap thru a strong
organization. Mr.. Barker stated, "In
Maryland both the farm bureau and
grange are active. The grange func-
tiOns as a social and legislative body
and the farm bureau functions as an
economic organization in the field of
cooperative buying of farm supplies
and marketing of farm products. The
two organizations in our State, work
hand in hand"
]. D. Reynolds, campaign manager,
stated that following these meetings
the farmers of the county would be
visited and given an opportunity to
join the farm bureau. From those
communities where the solicitors have
been at work highly encouraging re-
ports have been received. Mr.. Reyn-
olds feels that the present member
ship of 700, be increased fifty per cent
in this drive.
County Agent R. o. Bausman dis
cussed the development of the use of
certified seed potatoes in the county.
He stated that five years ago the term
Certified seed potatoes" was some
thing very vague among the farmers
of the county. Today if the average
farmer is not already using certified
seed potatoes he has serious intentions
of doing so next year. The use OF
this seed has practically resulted II
the doubling of yields.
J. D. Reynolds of Middletown, man
ager of the farm bureau membership
drive, in an interview stated that he
is highly gratified with the progress
of the campaign. Solicitors in tht
field are reporting a membership ever
exceeding my best expectation. Ou
membership in this drive will be in
creased by fifty per cent"
