Gompers Hailed As Man
Chiefly Responsible for
Labor's Great Progress

BY international Labor News Service.
Panama.-Hailed as the man who
has done the most for organized la
Dor in the United States, Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, was given an
enthusiastic greeting when he spoke
at a big meeting in the Balboa stad-
ium. With Mr.. Gompers were trade
union officials who are accompany
ing him on tour of investigation of
conditions in the cahal zone.
In an inspiring address. Mr.. Com
pers told of how it had been his wish
for years to visit the canal zone and
now the opportunity had finally come
when the last convention of the
American Federation of Labor had
instructed him to investigate condi-
tlons' of life and work in the canal
district. He added that the whole
canal region had been a revelation TO
hlm and he made a strong plea for
adequate defense of the canal. saw
ing in part:
i suggest this thought to you
be well prepared physically to pro-
tect the canal against any enemy.
The greatest danger is not from
without, the greatest menace is that
OF a discomfort within. What is an
essential requisite is that the men
and women working and living in
THIS zone shall be so thoroughly de-
voted to the spirit of the canal. the
purpose of the canal-not merely its
commercial value, but its value as an
outpost and protector of our insti-
tutlons and our civilization and any,
thing and everything that contributes
toward the acceleration of that
spirit, the exuberance of that en-
thusiasm should be done to inspire
a devotion to these ideals and pur-
poses, making permanent forever and
ever the advance of the American
ideals of civilization"
Mr.. Gompers also made a plea for
cooperation between nations and told
of the work of organized labor in
fighting the wage-slashing campaign
following the armistice In closing,
he urged the value of constructive
work and orderly progress, saying:
Our work, our movement, is of a
constructive character. We are op-
posed TO autocracy or dictatorship,
and we are just as much opposed to
the dictatorship of wealth as we are
to the dictatorship of the proletariat
We want neither-we don't want the
rule of the madman nor do we want
the rule of the man on horseback.

MORE POWER
To Courts Opposed BY
UniOniSts

ST. Louis, Mo.--Organized labor has
issued warning against proposed
constitutional amendment which would
increase the power of courts in this
state.
The amendment creates judicial
council of nine jndges who will be
vested with unlimited power to regu
late or abolish all forms of practice
and procedure of the trial courts of
the state They will also have the
power to set up new courts and define
their territory and their duties.
Trade unionists show that this pro-
vision will empower the judicial coun-
Gil to establish industrial courts to
regulate workers. The judicial council
would also be clothed with power to
transfer cases from one court of ap-
peals to another, at will.
Under pressure of certain inf1u-
ences, the judicial council could juggle
the case of poor man until he would
pe "oIH ouI anu tLIouSn SHeeI uc-
spair forfeit his claim. The judicial
council would be a convenient asset
to the big corporations that had large
claims levied against them in the
lower courts"
Other vicious proposals that the
constitutional convention approved
include: Abolition of the state pri-
mary system and destruction of the
initiative and referendum

Heavy Taxes On Rich"
"The bishops program of social
reconstruction, issued in February
1919, advocated heavy taxation on
incomes, excess profits and, inherit
ances' as one of the means of remedy
ing excessive gains by a small minor
ity of privileged capitalists
In commenting on this proposal
the program states that our immense
war debt constitutes particular rea-
son why incomes and excess profits
should continue to be heavily taxed.
1t adds that in this way two import
ant ends will be attained; the poor
will be relieved of injurious tax burd-
ems, and the small class of special
privileges capitalists will be compell-
ed to return part of their unearned
gains to society"

Washington.-Senator Couzens has
challenged Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon to a public debate on the lat
ter's tax plan, now before congress.
Both men belong to the administra-
tion party, and both are considered
among the richest in the country.
Secretary Mellon insists that less
taxes on the rich will release capital
for industry and thus create more
employment. He also urges that an
end be put to the issuance of tax
exempt bonds by states and munich
palities.
These proposals, backed by one of
the greatest propaganda organiza
tions the nation ever witnessed, are
opposed by Senator Couzens. In his
letter to Mr.. Mellon he said that if
taxes on higher incomes is reduced
this will result in a deluge of divi-
dends out Of industry to private in
dividuals. He added that the mere
transfer of ownership from one per-
son to the other, through the sale
of stocks and other investments,
would "have no constructive force in
the country's business" On the other
hand, the distribution of cash divi-
dends, he said, would result in taking
out of many industries large amounts
of capital now held in their treasury
Senator Couzens stated that in the
last ten years he has paid income
taxes to the amount of $8,223,679,
nearly all of which has been surtax.
In 1920, based on 1919 income, /
paid 65 per cent surtax, or total of
1929, ,161 to the federal treasury" he
said.
"This resulted entirely from a trans
fer of ownership of certain property /
had, and in no way had any effect
whatever upon the industry of the
country Had the present law been in
force would have saved nearly $2,-
100000, and if your proposal Of
maximum of 25 per cent in surtax
had been the law, would have saved
nearly $4,0O0,0OO; so l do not see

HEAVY TOLL
Exacted By West Virginia
NOn-UniOn Coal Mines

West Virginia coal statistics for
the last fiscal year tell grim story
of murderous non-union coal mines
where gun men and spies intimidate
workers.
In Logan county, where private ar
mics are maintained by the coal own
ers, there were Sc fatal and 62 nom
fatal accidents during the fiscal year
For each 243,678 tons of coal produc-
ed, one miner lost his life, and for
each 220,096 tons another miner was
crushed or MANNED.
During the same period Marion
county, which is almost 100 per cent
unionized, reported seven fatal and
eight non-fatal accidents. That coun-
ty produced Assoc tons Of coal for
each miner killed and injured.
In Mcdowell county, another haven
for gun men, spies and anti-union SEN
timent, there were 70 men killed and
| "a injured. For every 216,863 tons of
coal produced one miner lost his life
and another was injured. This rec
ord is SO per cent higher than the
record of unionized Marion county
This same percentage is maintained
in other union and anti-union coun
ties, where the records show limbs are
destroyed, bodies manned and live!
crushed out when organized labor is
not permitted to funtion.
The report states that the average
earnings of miners for the fiscal yea
