No One VIII Relieve
British War Office
of Czarist Lemons

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept. 29.-The
British war Office is attempting to I'M
load bag of lemons handed John Bull
by the late czarist government of Rus
STA.
The fruit in question consists of
$4,000 tons of railway material stored
at the Coquitlan yards, near vancou-
yer, since 1916. The materials were
consigned to Siberia but when the
revolution came the order was halted.
1t consists of. wheels, car bodies,
freight handling equipment and some
rails and plates. The material does
not conform to the standard gauge on
this continent So far no one has
shown any willingness to relieve the
British war office of it's wartime lem
ons.
For the first few years after the
Russian revolution, every counter
revolutionary filibuster was hailed by
the newspapers here as a chance to
unload but with the successive defeat
of Wrangel, Yudenitch, Kolchak and
Semenov these hopes dwindled as the
rust increased.

Find Prize Editorial.
But the prize is the editorial by
editor w. S. Ferris, system general
secretary of the company union. Pre-.
tending to cater to the radical element
he comes out in favor of revolution
with difference.
First he revives the hoary old lie,
denied by the Santa Fe company
itself, that its operating employees had
left unfortunate passengers in misery
and suffering upon the desert" The
1922 strike leaders then believed in
the real bolsheyist kind of a revolu.
tion," Ferris continues, and now they
are backing LaFollette for president
to increase their own bureaucratic
power. Having knocked the LaFol.
lette movement the company union
propaganda winds up saying Lets
make our revolution with ballots-not
bullets and have that revolution in
keeping with all that is best in Ameri-
can traditions" The inference is: Get
your revolution by voting for Calvin

MEXICO CITY. Sept. 29.-The new
Mexican income tax affecting all
salaries above 500 month, and the
clear profits of every commercial
establishment is meeting with op-
position not from the salaried en-
ployes but from the business men
who are asked to contribute a small
part of their gains for social needs.
Protests of chambers of commerce
in many states are crystallizing into
plans to resist the new income tax,
to close all business for "a hours on
the day when the first commercial
establishment is punished for not
complying with the law and TO boy
colt business men who obey the in
come tax law.
Workers, indignant at the cham
bers OF commerce are threatening to
take over the shops and stores that
refuse to pay the income tax. The
treasury department declares the law
will not be modified. President Obre-
gon upholds the treasury department.

CL AIM len SMALL

Explains Actions of Far
rington, Olander

Charges that Len Small, republican
Candidate for governor indorsed by
the Illinois State Federation Of Labor
officials, wined and dined with the Hi.
nois leaders Of the Ku Klux Khan,
were made by John P. Devine, chair
man Of the executive committee of the
democratic state committee, who is
whooping it up for Norman Jones, for
governor.
Deyine sent a telegram to Louis L.
Emerson, secretary of state of Illinois
which stated:
Calls 1t Love Feast.
Il am reliably informed that at a
recent love feast given in honor of
republican candidates for state office
in Mount Vernon, Jefferson county,
the notorious S. Glenn Young and 9TH
err leaders of the Ku Klux Khan were
present as your guests and by your
invitation. ! believe the voters of the
state are entitled to know whether
this is true. l therefore, ask you to
either confirm or deny the informa.
ton"
The friendliness of Governor Small
with the Ku Klux Khan gives an ink
ling as to the reluctance of Victor
Olander, secretary Of the Illinois Fed.
GRAFTON Of Labor, to denounce the Khan
at the recent convention of the FEEDER
alton in Peoria.
Olander and Frank Harrington, pres
ident of the Illinois miners, who tried
to prevent the Khan coming before the
Peoria convention, hesitated to en-
barass their political leader, Small.
for whom they have been campaign
ing so busily.
Small Wants Khan Vote.
Small is relying on the Khan vote.
and rather than do anything to injure
his chances for reelection, they pre-
ferred to allow the Khan to carry on
its disruptive work in the miners un.
ion.

LIVING COST
FAR OUTRUNS
Miners WAGE
Figures Give Lie to the
Employers Claims
BY LELAND oLDs

NTcuerateu FreSS INDUSTRIAL Editorl
Coal diggers in the mines of
Illinois are not buying gold
plated lavatories in spite of the
impression operators have been
creating that the miners are on
the road to becoming million
aires. If you are in doubt cast
your eye over the And annual
coal report of the state of
Illinois.
The average rate paid the
pick miner for turning out a ton
of coal, according to the report,
has failed to keep pace with the
advance in the cost of living
since 1918. The tonnage rate
has increased from 66.4c in
1913 to $1.091 in 1923, or 6415
per cent. The cost of living has
advanced approximately 20 per
cent.
Machine Miner Does No Better.
The machine miner has done a little
better. His rate per ton has increased
SIN per cent during the period but a
glance at the annual earnings will
dampen any hope that he has mater
tally bettered his position. For the
entire year 1928 his average earnings
amounted to $1,167, an increase of 81
per cent over the S772 earned in 1918.
The table based on the report
shows the average rate per ton and
the average earnings per year of pick
and machine miners in Illinois mines
since 1912:

Here is evidence that basic indus
try under the private competitive sys-
tenn has been run so badly that skilled
workers who risk their lives below
ground have earned year in and year
out little more than unskilled labor
wages. Due entirely to the override
velopment resulting from the private
competitive system consumers pay
unnecessarily high prices while min.
ers earn wholly inadequate wages.
Work Only 146 Days.
The full table in the report shows
that the miners were allowed to dig
coal during only 146 days in 1923. But
referring back to 1912, it appears that
they were little better of then, being
allowed to average only 172 days work
in that year
The report shows the steady adj
vance Of machine mining in the indus
try. In 1912 the payrolls show ap-
proximately $4,000 pick miners to
16,500 machine miners By 1928 the
proportion appears reversed with
nearly $4,000 machine miners to
21.500 pick miners. The machine en-.
ables miner to average more than
nine tons day in the Illinois mines
while with pick he averages some.

claims, thus taking a strong at
titude, while the people at larg,
are advised to avoid such be-
'havior as might restrain the
action of the government" is
characteristic of the latest press
muzzling. Journalists complain that
even during Kiyoura's cabinet such
secrecy did not exist. Apparently in
order to find reason for this secrecy,
the foreign Office tells newspaper men
that Mr.. Karakhan is complaining
that too many secrets are being ex.
posed in Tokyo by Japanese papers.
Spread Their Lies.
Another feature of these negoita
tions are the futile but ceaseless at
tempts of the government to make
everybody believe that the last Japan
ese terms are justice itself, that they
are, therefore, final and sacred and
that nothing can be changed or
amended, whereas in fact the govern
ment has long ago prepared a ground
for retreat by a gradual reduction of
its piled'up demands.
In conversation with a spokesman
of the foreign Office, it was admitted
that Japan's demand for the exclus-
ion of concession operations in Sag.
halien from the scope of Soviet labor
laws is tantamount to an infringement
of Soviet sovereignty on the part of
Japan, and that it is better to arrange
joint Russo-Japanese exploitation OF
the Saghalien oil fields.
Then there apparently still exists an
illusion that the U. S. S. R. is ready
to pay any price for the evacuation of
Saghalien by the Japanese troops,
and but recently some papers advised
the Soviet government to resume me-
gotiations on the goth inst, otherwise
they stated, belated Japan might be
unable to withdraw her troops this
year.
Make Russia Bear the Brunt.
The Japan Chronicle, commenting
Japan's demands as reported by the
Picking Kokusai correspondent, says
that it should be repeated that on this
day when the Soviet Union is able to
negotiate on terms of equality with
some of the most powerful govern
ments there is still a certain failure
to realize the facts on the part of
Japanese diplomats. According to the
Japan Times, Baron Shidehara, ap-
parently foreseeing such statement
from the Soviet, said that "the col.
ored glass thru which Soviet Russia
looks and her chaffering about terms
are very trying to ones patience. ="
Generally speaking, the same policy
is being applied now, namely to make
II look that Japan's demands are trf.
ing; that they are very just; that the
Japanese government cannot under
stand why the Soviet is bargaining
and using diplomatic tricks" and,
that if negotiations fail it is Russia's
fault.

But Is Is Supposed to Go
With Scab Labor
BY SAM JORDAN.
(For the Federated Press

SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 90.
The company union of the
Union Pacific railroad publishes
a monthly paper at Salt Lake
City that deserves a diploma
from the U. S. rail labor board
for licking the company's boots
and at the same time cIumsiIy
trying to deceive the radically
inclined workers in the U. p.

few.

is published from the Union

ployes' Association, free to all
members.
Knock Legitimate Unions.
Besides the secondary slave devices
of the company such as touting the
U. p shop bands and printing per-
sonal notices of the more obedient
employees and their wives there are
out and out puffs for the employer
and knocks at the legitimate railroad
unions that make the old line organi-
cation men on the road look for handy
brickbats.
For example, "Of late there has
been shown keen interest by the
management of the Union Pacific
System Lines in the welfare of the
employees" A shopman named ]. HI.
Harbeson bends the knee and writes
of the boss: when we think the
management is trying to put some
thing over on us, not giving us "a
square deal or deliberately trying to
rob us of the rights which are granted
to us under our agreement, we may
generally be sure that the manage
ment is looking at the matter from
different angle and an exchange of
views will nearly always bring so.
luton which at worst cannot be called
robbery"
A machinist named w. A. Merrill
writes from Armstrong, Kan, to tell
the beauty of loyalty to the boss. He
praises the small nucleus Of loyal
men in the shops" who stayed at work
during the 1922 national strike and
laments "the everlasting effort to
show (shopmen) that they had con.
