Quiet Dreamy N usic.
SOOthed Sensitive Ears.
at Symphony Orchestra
By ALFRED V. FRANKENsTEIN.

Dreams, and quiet, restful mood
dominated the concert of the Chicago
Symphony orchestra at Orchestra
Hall last Friday and Saturday. The
concert opened with an arrangement
of Bach toccata, which v>s almost
the only bit of dramatic and brilliant
music on The program.
The soloist, Claire Dux, sang a
love song by Mozart, with a string
bass obbligato played by Mr.. Jiskra,
the solo bass player of the orchestra.
The aria is typical Mozart, the gentle
music of a sensitive man. The bass
obbligato did not seem particularly
effective, not because Mr.. Jiskra did
not play it perfectly, but because the
music itself, written high up in the
range of the instrument, was not of
the kind suited to the string bass.
Then followed Gustav Mahler's
fourth symphony One generally as
sociates the name Of Mailer with a
deep, philosophical kind of music,
but this symphony. is delightfully."-
different. 1t is a sort of glorifed
fairy tale in four movements. 1t
has all the whimsicality and charm
of a book of German folk stories.
The second movement is one of the
few bits of music that actually has
a real hypnotic effect. And in the
last movement is a soprano solo, sung
by Miss Dux in way that will long
be remembered as one of the highest
points in the season.
Two excerpts from Franz Schre-
ker's opera "The Treasure Seeker"
opened the second half of the pro-
gram. The introduction to the third
act is grim study in musical hor-
ror, while the lullaby, which Miss
Dux sang, is quiet and lovely calm
picture.
Two compositions by the French
man, Satie, followed. Eric Satie,
tho a modernist in every respect,
takes an ancie;t Greek
subject. The pieces played at this
called "Gymnopedies,' deal
with Spartan war festival, the
Gymnopedia, but there is little in
them suggestive Of a martial cele-
bration. They are mystical and
exotic compositions, like modern
French nocturnes.
Claire Dux again displayed her
voice in a aria from Bizet's |
pearl Fishers. Once more the
music induced a revery, and quiet |
mood.
The program wound up with a
good and lively piece OF operate
music called "The Harvest Festival,
by Max Schillings, director Of the
Berlin opera, who is at present in
America.
Jacques Gordon and Alfred Wal
enstein, first violin and first cello
Of the Symphony or
are scheduled to play a
iouble concerto by Brahms on the
for next week. Besides this,
here will be the Academic Festival
'verture Of Brahms, a Negro rhap-
'ody by Goldmark, and. selections
rom Wagner's Tristan and Isolde.

AMALGAMATED
WON 44 HOURS
FOR BELLEvILLE.
A. F. Of L. Council Is
Glad for Aid

BELLEN LILLE, H.. March q
Belleville one of the best organized
cities IN Illinois, suddenly woke up to
the fact that the pants makers of
that city were working under sweat
shop conditions, working II and IA
hours per day for wages ranging as
low as $500 per week.
The situation came to a climax
when one Of the girls failed to come
home for supper. Her father went
to the factory and found she had been
locked in and was being compelled
to do a certain amount Of work be-
fore being allowed to go home.
United Fails.
This condition was brought to the
attention of the Central Labor Coun-
ell, which took immediate action.
writing to the United Garment Work
ers, asking them to send in an or
ganizer, assuring them the support of
the council. No action was taken bv
the United Garment Workers. so they
invited the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers to send in their organizer.
Immediately the owner of the fac
tory became alarmed and threatened
to move the factory to another town.
The answer of the Central Labor
Council to this threat was to ask the
unions of Belleville to give the Anal
gamated Clothing Workers their
moral and financial assistance.
AmaIRamated Wins Men.
The Amalgamated sent in a num-
Der Of organizers, who held a meeting
with a few of the leaders in the
factory. The next day a lockout
was declared. The Amalgamated on
behalf of the girls, put in a demand
for the 44-hour week, recognition of
the union, and the adjustment of
prices.
They gave all the workers strike
benefits, whether they belonged to
the union or not. The factory was
tied up 1000 and remained so until
the settlement Of the strike.
The last attempt to break up the
united front of the workers was made
by representative of the Board of
Trade who appeared before the Cen
trail Labor Council, and tried to get
them to withdraw their support from
the Amalgamated Garment Workers
on the grounds that they were not
affiliated with the American Fedora
ton of Labor and did not carry the
union label
He was taken aback when one of
the delegates showed him the A. c.
W. union label. and capitulated COM
pletely when the Central Labor Coun-
Gil passed a resolution which will be
sent to the Illinois convention of the
United Mine Workers Of America.
asking them to use their influence
with the American Federation of La
Dor to have the Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers recognized in preference
to the United Garment Workers.
Union Conditions.
An agreement has been entered
into by the Amalgamated, which esta-
blishes for the first time in this fac
Org, the rights of the workers to have
some say as to their wages and work
ing conditions. The recognition of
the union and the 44-hour week has
been established.
From now on no one but members
Of the Amalgamated can be hired.
Al adjustment on prices has been
made. The wages and conditions
are by no means the best, but as one
girl puts it, we did not win the world
With our little strike, but we won the
opportunity to develop and from
low on watch our smoke.

BROCKTON STRIKE
CASES TRIED BY
SHOE co. JUDGES
1877 Cases Left from
the Big Strike

N~kNNAeA " Inc UllIy N0fknF1
BKOCKTON, Mass, Mar. 2.-To-
oay' the cases Of the Brockton strik-
ers are before the state supreme
court. The cases developed from the
revolt OF $4,000 shoe workers against
the inhuman decisions of the State
Board of Arbitration last Nav.
against the manufacturers. and
against the Boot and Shoe Workers
Union, which assented to the award.
During the eighth week Of the
strike, their "fellow worker" (sic). a
former shoe worker, upon whose snn-
port they relied implicitly, declared
the strike Illegal. The defia it strik-
ers went on the picket line, and 141
WEI arrested, under an obsolete law
against Lettering passed IN 1899.
aimed at street walkers. In all.
there are 1877 cases, the remainder
beng on assault and battery, and dis
turoance Of the peace charges. AS
sault and battery is the charge
placed against those who got in the
way of the cops and were beaten up.
Inc cases were originally held over
Tor the supreme court in October, but
a mayoralty election was coming in
December, so for political reasons
the trials were put off until 1924.
Refused To Compromise.
At meeting of the strikers held
a week ago Sunday, Attorney
Geoghan stated that Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Williams was willing
to accept fine of S., from those ar
rested for lettering, provided they
pleaded guilty. The original fine was
$40, and it was from this that an
appeal was taken. For the others,
half the fine would be accepted, ex-
cept for few of whom an example
must be made by Jail sentence.
10 plead guilty meant to acknowI-
cage that they had no right to
strike, that they VIDE satisfied with
a state of involuntary servitude, that
they were cutters. This the men re-
solved never to do; rather than plead
guilty, they would go to Jail.
The judges sitting in the case are
hostile to labor, Judge Avery of
Quincy, hearing the smaller cases,
being one Of the most reactionary.
The bench is controlled by the shoe
manufacturers. The original court
sentence, in fact, was imposed by
Judge Rowe, whose brother belongs
to shoe firm. The other public
officials are likewise controlled.
Mayor No Friend.
The present Mayor, Bullivant. was
elected by the strikers, but does
nothing for them. Even before cleo
ton, he campaigned for law and or
der, Manning, who was licked, howl
ed against the Bolshevists, the strik-
ers, waving the American flag, and
damning the red one. No candidate
advocated the strikers cause; but |
the workers, instead of putting up
their own candidate on their own |
program, went out to lick Manning. !
Manning was licked, but Bullivant
was elected and the interests of la
Dor were not advanced one whit.
The defense of the strikers is be-
ing handled by the Brockton Labor
Defense Council, an organization
which confines its activities solely
to the Brockton strike cases. The
address is 81 Main street, Brockton,
Mass.

U. S. BRICKLAYER
is SPEED MODEL
FOR LEvERHULME
Australians Four Times
Slower, He Says

SYDNEY, Australia, March o.
Lord Leverhulme, the British soap
king, told members of the Employers
Federation at an entertainment in his
honor that employers did not exploit
the workers, but that the workers
exploited the bosses. This raised
thunderous cheers from the capital
lists present.
He was again cheered when he as
serted that in America bricklayers
laid four times as many bricks as in
Australia, and urged that local en-
ployers should not put up with what
he called the dictation of Union off
cials.
No Proftsl
He made the astounding assertion
though he was careful to add that
he could not prove it-that if the
profits of industry were set against
the losses, the net return from in
dustry would not do more than give
mortgage rental on the capital in
vested.
He forgot, however. to advance
reason why the bosses continued to
engage in industry when, according
to his assertion, they could get the
same return by simply investing their
money in mortgages.
Another remark by Leverhulme
that was roundly applauded by the
bosses was that increased production
did not benefit the boss alone. II
merely helped him to buy more stock,
increase his machinery, and give
more employment. He added that
his antidote for unemployment was
more production.
Leverhulme, however, made one
statement that did not meet with the
approval of the local bosses. He
said that it was necessary that gov
ernments should have control over
industries, but that they must also
see that human greed did not exceed
human brotherhood. The local bosses
did not cheer that remark. while the
leading capitalistic news-sheets Of
Sydney failed to report IL.
Union Organizer Nails Lie.
Jack Kilburn, organizer Of the
Bricklayers' Union branded Lever
hulme's statement about the A to 1
speed of tho American mechanic over
the Australians as gross absurdity.
What reduced output does exist,
Kilburn said, is due to the irritating
tactics of employers. He added that
If the soap king really wishes facts
he should come to the Trades Hall
and get them.

N0TE.-The DAILY WORKER
today publishes the conclusion Of
Kamenev's great speech to the
Moscow district convention of the
Russian Communist Party. The
struggle within the party, which
was exaggerated and perverted by
the paid liars Of the capitalist
press into a civil war, with the
minority and the majority leading
armies against each other, can
only be understood from reading
this speech and those that will
follow. We advise you not to miss
a single issue Of the DAILY

day a portion of the discussion.

But if he goes to other people, OF
TO comrades belonging to quite a
different party. then he commits a
crime. We know very well that there

At special meeting of the Cham

Idaho, held on the above date, the
following resolution was unanimous
ly adopted:
"In view of the fact that the foot
and mouth disease now prevalent in
California, according to the press,
is rapidly spreading, and as Noun

State of California to this state,
whereby the germ OF the hoof and
mouth disease might be transmitted

The second is to arrange for indiVid-
ual conferences between students in
terested and our visiting represen-
tatives. The third way suggested
was to invite in any parents who
might be interested to give them a
chance to hear the talks, meet the
speakers and participate in the con-
ferences.
All three methods will be used
here. Our plan is to have a general
meeting of the whole high school
and any visitors who wish to attend
the first part of the half day when
our visitors arrive. We hope that
our friends and patrons will take
advantage to meet and hear the men
referred to above. After this general
meeting there will be opportunity
for the speakers to meet members of
the senior class and any parents or
patrons who may be interested. The
details of these meetings will be
worked out after the arrival of the
speakers.
We wish to extend cordial inyi-
tation to any persons outside of
school to come to the meetings ar
ranged for. The forenoon general
meetings will begin at 8:45 and the
afternoon meetings at lis. 1t will
be fine opportunity for all of our
high school students to learn more
about Idaho institutions and we wish
to cooperate with them as much as
we can in helping them to advertise
their equipment and work.

ALFALFA "A DRUG
ON CHATTIN FLAT

While visiting in the Grand View
section last Sunday we noticed that
the ranchers of Chattin Flat and the
west side of the Snake river have
plenty of hay left ON their hands af-
ter the sheepmen had used all they
needed to winter their stock. The
reasons for the big surplus are CIV
en- as the mild winter and fewer
sheep being wintered in that region.
1t is expected, however, that more
sheep will be taken care of there
next winter than for the season
which has just passed.
w. D. Southworth last year cut
500 tons of fine hay from his ranch,
and did not dispose of ton, having
the entire crop in stack.
Water is now running in the
bitches and irsgation will soon COM

COLLEGE IN IDAHO WEEK

The University of Idaho, along
with all other schools which give
college work, have organized to Gre
ate more interest in Idaho institu-
tions on the part of the high school
students of Idaho. 1t has been the
belief of those in charge of these in
situations that too many high school
graduates have been going outside
the state for their higher education.
To counterfeit this situation and
make Idaho people understand more
about the colleges and university in
our state, College in Idaho week was
originated
Our high school has received a
schedule and explanation of ways
to observe the week. According to
this schedule we are to have five rep
resentatives of five different institu-
tions here from Friday, April rs, to
Wednesday, April 80, inclusive. The
first speaker to arrive will be c. L.
Harlan of Lewiston State Normal
school. He will be here Friday fore
noon of the 25th. There will be a
representative of Gooding College,
not named, the afternoon of the same
day. The next speaker to arrive will
be Dean M. f. Angel of our state
university Shortly after him we
will have Paul Murphy of the facul-
ty of the College of Idaho, located
at Caldwell These two men will be
here the forenoon of Monday, April
IS. The fifth and last man to come
here win be President Charles r. |
Frazier of Idaho Technical Institute, |
located at Pocatello He will be
here Wednesday forenoon of the
s0th.
The plan suggested to make best
use of these men while here is a
threefold one. The first is to have
hem address the high school assem-
bly, or members of the senior class.
