Gasoline Price Jump
Is Branded Outrage
By Attorney General

A third increase of two cents a
gallon for gasoline in Atlanta within
period of two weeks, effective We'd
nesday, was characterized as IAN
unwarranted outrage" by Attorney
General George NJ. Napier The
three rapid raises have advanced
the price from is to "A cents.
Increases in the cost of crude oil
are not sufficient to warrant such
jumps in the price of gasoline, and
indications are that the boosts are
arbitrary on the part of the refin-
ers," Mr.. Napier said. 1.-The prices
seem to be made at the will of the re-
finers, and the way in which all
other companies follow in the steps
of the initial mover would indicate a
close association in the conduct of
the gasoline business. at least"
The attorney general has received
one letter stating that crude oil cost
more when gasoline sold for ten
cents gallon than it did when gas
was 2G cents last April

AN OUTSPOKEN PARSON

We have in our midst, in the per-
son Of the Rev. Kenneth r. Close, a
Christian minister who does not hes
itate to preach what he believes to be
right, and to express himself in no
uncertain terms, regardless Of conse-
quences.
Last Sunday evening, at the union
church meeting in Plymouth Church,
he addressed capacity congregation
on Mobilization Day., and there
could be no doubt that he strongly
favored the doctrine announced by
the Herald Angels at the Saviour's
birth of peace on Earth, Good Will
Toward Men," rather than a "battle
murder and sudden death" policy
preached by the War Lords and muni-
tion manufacturers.
1t was a mastery and convincing
address, and greatly impressed his
hearers, and has since been favorably
commented upon throughout the city.

pears elsewhere in this weeks Lead

CITY OFFICIALS AND LABOR

The very best Of fraternal good will
and cooperation exists between the
City Council-several members of
which carry union cards-and Or
ganized Labor in the city Of Newark.
When the Trades Assembly asked
for the use of the streets surrounding
the court house park for concession
purposes on Labor Day, the privilege
was unanimously granted without
question Or remarks, and at the last
council meeting an invitation asking
the city dads to participate in the fes-
tivities and march in the Labor Day
parade, was likewise unanimously ac-
cepted.
These things are appreciated by
Labor and tend to strengthen the
friendship at present existing be-
tween the citv administration and the
boys who "eat their bread by the
sweat Of their brow"

Let Davis Clean House
In West Virginia

New York-This business of being
a Wall Street candidate and at the
same time posing as friend Of labor
is hardly worth the effort, especially
in this hot weather, as one John w.
Davis has discovered. Now that Nor
man Thomas, candidate of the New
York Socialists for governor, has de
cided to smoke out Davis on his false
labor pretensions, the willy Morgan
lawyer does not know which way to
jump.
Davis began by claiming that he
had defended as an attorney Gene
Debs and Mother Jones. When they
denied this, he had no comeback. In
a sheepish interview he admitted that
he was probably mistaken and that
they ought to know. Then he wrote
a letter to an Illinois editor affirm
ing his belief in trade unionism and
his desire to protect the rights Of
labor. Thomas got on his trail, point
ing out that he had spoken no word
against his friends the West Virginia
BILE for the long reign of terror with
gunner against the West Virginia
miners. Just as Davis was taking
the count, Thomas gave him final
kick
Thomas, together with his running
mate Charles Solomon, sends the fol-
lowing letter to Davis:
"WOrd has reached us from respon-
sible sources in West Virginia indi-
eating renewal of the reign Of ter
ror which the coal operators have so
often practiced against defenseless
members of the miners union. Scores
of miners are being evicted from
their homes by private detectives in
clear violation of the laws of the
state Of West Virginia and of the ma
ton.
GAS resident of West Virginia
will you join in a protest to Governor
Morgan against this brutal outrage
being done to the constitutional rights
! of these defenseless workers."
The protest sent to Governor Nor
gan by Thomas and other charges
that progressive American citizens
are being outraged "by the brutal and
lawless methods Of private detectives
in the pay of coal operators" who are
evicting them in Winifrede, Goals
burg, Perryville and Hanley. Infor-
nation from Percy Tetlow, president
District II, United Mine Workers of
America, states:
Recently there appeared in the
village of Winifrede band Of armed
men recruited by a detective agency
in Charleston and employed by coal
operators. These men were heavily
armed with high-powered rifles and
pistols and had several blood-hounds
in their possession. They swept in
to this peaceful village in high-pow-
cred motor cars and proce<ded by
force to empty the household effects
of two miners and their families into
the streets"

CRED" FULKE EXPLAINS

Service Director Fulke, whose
action has been criticised in some
quarters for canceling a contract for
paving brick and ordering the cessa-
tion of relaying Wornout streets in
certain sections of the city, was given
an opportunity to square himself at
the last council meeting.
Mr.. Fulke stated his position was
taken upon the advice of the acting
city solicitor. That no record of the
action by council authorizing con-
tracts for such purchase of material
Or repair paving work could be found
neither could the auditors certificate
that there was sufficient money in
the fund to defray the expense.
Such being the case it would be
clearly violation Of law to proceed
farther, and such being true no other
course than that pursued was poss-
ible.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1924-08-22
DON'T BE AFRAID TO
SAY A GOOD WORD

Do you find yourself tongue-tied
when you feel disposed to say kind,
encouraging word to others? If so,
you will never regret setting yourself
to overcome this fault, for it is la
mentable fault. There is enough
harshness, enough coldness, enough
Indifference, enough callousness,
enough unkindness in the world. Why
not do all you can to make people a
little cheerier, a little brighter, a lit
tie happier? Money isn't the only
thing we can give which will help and
please others. We can give word
of sympathy, word of appreciation,
a word of praise. Was it Thoreau
who relates that when he replied to a
beggar who asked him for a coin, "I'm
sorry, | haven't penny even to give
you, brother" got this reply: at is
not something that you have called
me brother y?
Many of our older generation Of in
dustrial giants are drivers. They be-
lieve in driving rather than in lead
ing, in swearing at workers rather
than in praising them. Many of our
most successful business executives
of the younger generation have learn
ed that men work most and best when
given encouragement and considera-
ton. In these democratic days auto
cratic bossing often leads to labor
troubles.
After all, is not more satisfaction
to be gained from running business
harmoniously than in attempting to
rule everyone with a rod of iron?
And, in social life, do we not all pre-
fer friends who do not hesitate to
say kind rather than cruel things p
