BETTER PROTECTION
BY BETTER LIGHTING

The local crime wave, as manifest
ed by the Globe robbery, attempted
burglaries in other business places,
auto thefts and attempts at such, as
we'll as the highway incident sug-
costing the work of would-be bandits.
has made it evident that there is need
of better protection of property, es-
pecially at night.
With this matter in mind, a dele
cation of businessmen met with the
committee from the city council or
Tuesday night and the matter was
thoroughly discussed. The conclus-
ial reached was that better and all
night lighting on the main business
streets and the adjacent alleys would
serve as better protection against
thieves than an increased police
force. The city will, therefore,
place lights in the alleys and operate
the city plant all night. This car be
done at less expense than the en-
ploymeat of another policeman and
can be managed by employing on full
time a second man at the power
plant. who is now working half time.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 1s.-
Thfvtgh an adjustment Of the de-
naands Of the plumbers Of Gary, the
strike of some 1000 craftsmen in the
building trades there has been settled
according to information from repre-
sentatives of the Department of La
Dor, conciliation division. The plum
bers struck following a refusal of cm-
ployers to meet the demands Of $13
day wage and certain adjustments
in the plan of working apprentices.
This strike involved all the other
building trades unions and effectuaI-

spring building program in Gary and
the Calumet region. The. settlement
of the difficulties with the plumbers
clarified the situation in respect to
other crafts who were locked out by
employers and all the unions involved
agreed to return to work on the pre-
vailing wage schedule.
The adjustment with the plumbers
did not include any wage advance,
but certain concessions were made in
the matter of dealing with appren-
ticeship work by the employing con-
tractors. Federal labor conciliators
were called in to assist in the settle

LABOR MUST FIGHT new
SCHEME TO IMPORT APS

Un-American friends Of the Jap
anese have conceived scheme to
scatter representatives Of that race
throughout the United States. They
planned to locate colonies in Ohio,
Georgia and Arkansas Just how
many more States they have in mind
upon which to dump hordes Of Jap
anese is not known The labor move
ment in Ohio is bitterly fighting the
proposal to establish colony in that
State near Willard. The executive
board of the Ohio State Federation
of Labor held meeting on May 80
and unanimously declared against
any colonization scheme of peoples
from countries whose institutions
and traditions are in marked variance
with those of the United States"
The Cleveland Federation of La
Dor has taken up the question and
scathingIy criticises those who are
responsible for the proposed Ohio
colony.
The Atlanta (Ga). Journal of La
Dor is making an aggressive fight a.
gainst locating q colony Of Japanese
in that State and the entire labor
movement has been aroused 10 its
dangers.
At the same time former Attorney
General Wickersham and Doctor Sid
ney L. Gulick have launched propa-
ganda campaign on the Pacific eUast
to permit the admission Of Japanese
under the quota Law. This has afotis
ed the coast people and they are max
ing such a protest as can come only
from Americans who have suffered
economically from the large numbers
of persons ineligible to citizenship
who live in their States.
A number of religious bodies have
been deceived into supporting the
plan of Wickersham and Gulick. This
increases the danger to American
people. All labor should at once
awaken to this threat against Amer
ican standards and prepare to defeat
the conspiracy.

.l42 MINERS MET DEATH
IN MINES DURING APRIL

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 49,
Accidents at coal mines in the United
States in the month of April caused
the death Of 142 men; according to
reports made by the various State
mine inspectors to the Interior De-
partment through the Bureau Of
Mines. The death rate for the month
was 3.45 per millions tons of coal pro-
duced, as compared with 6.58 in April
last year. The output of coal was
Al, ,174, 900 tons in April, 1925, and
81, ,215,OOO tons in April, 1924. The
much larger death rate for April last
year was due to the loss of 119 lives
in an explosion at Benwood, w. Va,
without which the rate would have
been 3.S9.
Considering the accidents by caus-
es, the reports made to the Bureau
Of Mines for 1925 show a marked re-
duction in the death rate from ex-
plosions Of gas and dust, no change
for falls Of roof and coal, and slight
increase in accidents from haulage,
explosives and electricity.

This was the famous prosecution

charging conspiracy in restraint of

carpenters working agreement to the

The case was originally tried before
a jury in the court of District Judge
Adam G. Cliffe, who assessed fines ag-
gregating about $780, 900 against those

paid their fines, but all of the carpen-

their fines and took an appeal.

Appeals, however, gave consideration
to but one error and based its re-

In handing down its decision, the

Substantially to interrupt interstate

Each and all of. the men thus sum-

He is not going abroad to sound out
sentiment on new arms parley. He
is not going over to see how the
