Frank Keeney Found Not
Guilty in Death Of Logan
County Deputy Sheriff
BY International Labor News Service.

BY international Labor News Service.
Fayetteville, w. Va-Acquittal of
c. Frank Keeney, president of Dis
trict II, United Mine Workers of
America, on the charge of being an
accessory to the killing of John Gore,
Logan county deputy sheriff, was an
nounced by jury in the Fayette
county court here after celebrating
for an hour on the evidence presented
in the case. Gore was killed on Blair
mountain, in Logan county, in August,
1921, during spontaneous uprising
of the West Virginia miners.
Cheers burst from the throng in
the crowded court room as the verdict
was announced. Many of the secta-
tors were miners in the coal regions
in Fayette county, and employed at
non-union operations. The trial of
Keeney had been in progress for FIVE
weeks.
The chief issue In the trial was
whether Keeney, with other officials
of the union, encouraged and assisted
in bringing about the uprising of the
miners. The contention of the de-
fense was that the uprising was pure
ly spontaneous and that Keeney ex-
erted his efforts to persuade the men
to return peacefully to their homes.
Witnesses for the prosecution made
the claim that Keeney exerted efforts
to have the miners invade Logan and
Mingo counties, even against their ex-
pressed wishes in the matter.
The acquittal of Keeney marks the
fifth successive defeat for the coal

CARL HooKsTADT is DEAD

Washington.-Carl Hooksadt, chief
statistician in the United States bu-
reau of labor statistics, died in St
Paul, after a short illness. He lived
in this city. He was considered an
authority on workmen's compensa-
tion insurance, and his works on this
subject were an invaluable aid to de-
tenders of the theory of state work
mems compensation insurance.

Coolidge was making no effort in this

that Coolidge "gumshoe men, are

Chicago, Tll.-Matthew Woll, presi-
dent Of the International Allied Print
ing Trades Association and vice-presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor, today made public specific
charges that the Calvin Coolidge ma
tional headquarters in this city is
making use Of non-union printing,
that suit has been threatened against
a union official for stopping Cool
idge job sublet to a union house by
non-union house and that Coolidge
headquarters regards the union label
on printing as matter of pure politi-
cal expediency.
II urge every local union in the
country to get busy on this job," said
Woll. Coolidge headquarters in the
magnificent Wrigley building in Chi
cago should be bombarded by union
officials and union men from every
section Of the country. Apparently
Coolidge headquarters have no under
standing of the meaning of the union
label. Let us convey that meaning
and let us make it known that we
understand clearly the meaning of the
attitude assumed at Coolidge head
quarters"
Union Officials Conduct Investiga-
ton
/. WolPs charges follow an investiga-
ton which was brought about by the
action Of Harry Koch, president Of the
Chicago Photo Engravers' Union.
Koch discovered that the Magill- Vein
sheimer Company, noted as a nom
union concern, had sublet Coolidge
job to a union house. Koch at once
stopped the job, whereupon he was
threatened with legal action by the
Coolidge management. $50 ahead and
sue" was Koch's rejoinder. Suit was
not filed however.
Following this, action was taken by
officials of Chicago Typographical
Union No. 16. Organizer John A.
English requested Joseph A. Wise to
undertake an Investigation. Wise WIS.,
tied Coolidge headquarters, which he
describes as "a large and luxurious
suite of offices" in the Wrigley build
ing.
Mr.. Wise there met ga gentleman
who said his name was Gunn," who
described himself as ga double barrel
ed son-of-a-gun." Gum declared that
the use of the union label on Coolidge
printing was matter of political ex-
pediency and that it was left to the
discretion of the various state head
quarters in the 48 states as to whether
their printing should be union print
ing bearing the label. Gum said,
according to Wise, that several state
managers insisted that there be no
label on their printing. Gum de-
scribed these states as "the New
England states and Texas" Pressed
to name states in New England he
specified Rhode Island and Connecti-
cut.

why THEY OPPOSE
TRADE UNIONS

At present the type of industrial
relationship most popular with Ameri-
can employers is the anti-union shop
and individual bargaining. There are
several reasons for this. The most
important is the instructive desire for
mastery, coupled with the idea Of ira
ditional property rights.
By far the most common objection
riased by employers to any type of
collective bargaining with tehir work
men, no matter how organized, is bas-
ed upon these premises.
But a union is not necessarily for
industrial war. Many Of the most
costly and bitter labor wars in Amer
lean industrial history have occurred
where the workmen We're entirely un-
organized, until after the trouble as
sumed an open break.-Cloice r.

ingly large one, for he may borrow

course, participates as any other con-
sumner in the usual retail store credit.
Moreover, the Federal Reserve Act
has provided broad accommodation
for agriculture in its text as originally
adopted and in the several amend

Are we thinking OF what we may do
for our country, or of what our coun-
try may do for US?
Our duty to ourselves and our
country requires positive as well as
negative action. We must be con-
structive. As citizens of our country,
do we fulfill the obligations incum-
bent upon us? Do we exercise our
right to vote-and when we do, do
we always place intelligence, eff
cheney and patriotism in government
ahead of every other consideration?
The message which l wish to en-
phasize is simple truth, one easily
understood, but one of great impor-
lance, perhaps more important today
than ever before: Wei, as an indi-
vidual-must be responsible for our
government-my government.
We cannot delegate our responsL
biIity In government to someone else.
There is no substitute for Individual
interest In government and individual
responsibility for government.

is EVIDENCE LACKING7

If Daugherty is as bad as
he is represented to be by
those who are testifying in
the senate investigation, he
has never been fit for office.
He must have been superla-
lively smooth, else how was
he able to gain and hold the
confidence of two presidents !?
No impeachment proceedings
have been instituted, and the
public is left to surmise that
the senate considers the testi-
mony offered of a rather
doubtful character. Senator
Borah pointed out the consti-
tutional method of procedure
when an official is charged
with high crimes and inside
meanors, but his colleagues
did not act upon his advice.
Can it be that the senate has
no reliable evidence and that
most of these wild accusations
are for political purposes on
"?
