SmaII-Lot Freight Increases.

Gains in railroad traffic this year
have been greatest in the movement
of freight in less-than-carload lots and
in miscellaneous freight. These two
divisions of traffic now aggregate
10000 cars in excess of the. move
mcut for the same period last year. In
spite of this heavy traffic, the rail
roads have a larger volume of sur
plus of cars in good condition today
than at any time in the past. From
100000 to 200, 900 cars a week in eX-
cess of demands of shippers have been
available during the last three months.
Officials of the American Railway
Association give due credit for this
condition to the cooperation Of the
twelve regional shippers advisory COM
mittees established throughout the
country. They say no other factor has
contributed so large to the elimination
of delays in loading and unloading as
these committees and that the latter
constitute the key TO the successful
handling of the enormous volume of
business without car shortage, termi-
nal congestion, delayed movements or
inefficient service.

RUSH OF FREIGHT
PROVES PROSPERITY
Small-Lot Shipments Smash
All ReCords-RetaiI Stocks
Kept Down.
BY j. c. ROYLE.

Freight movements by the rail-
roads of the United States SO far
this year about approximate the A.
100000 car mark, and will exceed
that figure by next Saturday. This
IS the highest record ever reached in
the history of the United States, and
is approximately 1000, 900 cars ahead
of the movement for the same period
last year. These figures give evi-
dence that unless some big disaster
1ntervenes, freight loadings for 1925
Will far exceed o0,000,000 cars, the
record established in 1928.
This tremendous transfer of goods
is prima facie evidence as to the
prosperous condition of the country.
The railroads for the last three
months have been handling a volume
OF freight in excess of 100000 cars
a week. The gain TO commerce and
industry can be calculated by the
TACT that only once during 1922 did
the movement reach the million car
mark and then for just one week.

en- by the miners camp at Orient,
they went to West Frankfort, to work
with the Citizens committee" but
when they saw the complexion of the
committee they were filed with anger
and suspicion.
Union Miners to Check Up Accounts.
Reporting back to Local 300, Orient,
ILL.,, these two miners wished to resign
and have nothing to do with a com
mittee whose material interest is so in
conflict with the needs Of the relief
given to the victims of the storm. But
the local union instructed them to re-
main in the committee and contest all
observable profteering and corrup
ton.
The Red Cross, says Hewlett, has
not given a dime to relieve the situa-
ton so far. 1t has loaned few tents,
with the strict injunction that they
must be returned. It is assuming
charge solely Of the business end, and
giving that into control of gouging To-
cal capitalists.
The Usual "Unexpended Funds"
And latter the reconstruction is
ended" so Hewlett quotes the local
committee, eff any funds remain I'M
expended, they will be turned over to
the Red Cross"
Hewlett says that the union miners
have no trust in the Red Cross, the Sc
lection secretly of profit-taking CAPT
talists and few workers on the COM
mittee is enough. But in addition he
declares that the record Of the Red
Cross in the Cherry, Illinois, mine dis
aster of Nov. 10, 1909, where 2S9 min
ers were blown to pieces or burned to
death was bad.
The Red Cross Past Record.
At that time the Red Cross made
similar appeal for funds as the pres
ent one-''for relief" Among others
who sent in relief was James Waite,
who ran benefit show and for about
fourteen weeks sent in weekly and
large remittances to the Red Cross.
But he never could get any receipt
for these funds, nor did they appear in
the report of receipts later issued by
the Red Cross.

victims as another execute to milk the
treasury.
harrington Has Hand in Treasury.
According to the Illinois Miner and
the st. Louis Post-Dispatch, Earring
ton is quoted as saying that the Illi-
nois District of the U. M. W. A. has
appointed a union relief committee
which "Has orders to go the limit and
turn in the bills to the district or
ganization." The miners sometimes
see one of this fake relief committee
on the streets, but have yet to get a

None of the members of the Work

Then there are the written records

not too old to tell Kellogg the whole
story in few hours.
If he makes a fair report Kellogg
will inform Coolidge that the British

was to be publicly done in Washing

political glory to be gained by sur

Polish Terror-American Courts

As this is written many members of the Workers
(Communist) Party of America have been arrested
in Detroit and Seattle for taking part in de-
monstration before the Polish consulate against
railroadng StanisIav Lanzutsky, Polish Commun-
list, to the gallows.
He is to be tried, under law providing the death
penalty for urging the railway workers to continue
and extend their strike. His immunity as a mem
her of the Polish diet has been taken from him so
that the terrorist government can send him to his
death.
Is it crime to protest against the murder of
spokesman of the workers in other countries?
American capitalism evidently so considers it,
Poland is the pet of the mperialst robbers and it
is not well that the Polish masses in America
should know of the crimes committed in the name
Of democracy"
In a few hours there will be more workers ar
rested IN connection with the Lanzutsly protest.
Secret service men have been watching the head
quarters Of the Workers (Communist) Party all

years standing in the government

Yesterday, under the leadership of
some of the prominent members of
the Typographical Union and some
prominent veterans, 62 discharged
employees sent protest to Coolidge
and followed it up with a declaration
Of war against Carter.
The statement says in part:
"In our rs to 40 years. experience,

'Deep-seated and justifable discon-
tent and disorganization exists and

regarding the course he Is TO pur-

Despite the fact that there Is no

response to the protest of the dis

IA years at Washington, was chosen,
public printer by Harding, on recon-
mendation of Smoot and Moses. The
practical details of wiping out union
ism in this department were left to
the ingenuity of Carter.
Berry's Cohorts Play Part.
No union-wrecking conspiracy in the
printing industry is complete without
the support of the George L. Berry
gang in control of the International
Printing Pressmen and Assistants
Union. With the first evidences of
discrimination against union 4ien, a
committee from Columbia Typograph-
ical Union called on Harding to lay
their grievances before him and de-
mand the discharge of Carter. Moses
and Smoot contested this demand and
Carter, the public printer, brought
committees from both the pressmen's
and >bookbinders' unions. The book
binders rank and file were Infatuated
at this act of treachery on the part
of their committee and withdrew them
with a stern rebuke, but the Berry
supporters persist to this day in sup
port of Carter.
Echoes of Howard.
Another labor faker, expresident
Charles p. Howard of the Information
al Typographical Union, refused to
step into the situation and support the
fight of Columbia Union No. 101.
Howard was later rewarded by Car
ter who openly campaigned for his
election as head of the Typographical
Union in the last campaign and who
instituted a reign of terror against
the critics of Howard in the govern
ment printing office. Carter even
went so far in support of Howard to
boost this consummate faker before
a convention Of the Typothetae held
at Atlantic City shortly before the
elections in the Typographical Union.
For his treachery to Columbia Union,
the compositors of the District of
Columbia overwhelmingly rebuked
Howard at the polls. The refusal OF
Howard and Berry to inaugurate a
fight for unionism in the government
printing Office paved the way for the
drive that is now being waged. N
Members of Columbia Typography
cal Union openly declare that they are
convinced Carter plans the extermin-
alton of their union thru wholesale
discharge of union men, and is ac-
complishing II with the assistance OF
George l.. Berry's associates here.
Old Employees Get the Ak.
Many old employees who in a few
years will be eligible to government
pensions for thirty years service are
being eliminated because they have
the manhood to place the union ahead
OF their jobs. They were told, as
other government employees are told,
that Uncle Sam always takes care of
his loyal servants. This fairy tale
has been exploded by the terrorism
waged by Carter and turnout all gov
