Labor Body Does
Not Control Its
Unfair Landlord

The Illinois Federation Of Labor,
the Chicago Federation of Labor and
many local unions are having the I'M
comfortable experience of being
housed in the same building with a
restaurant branded as unfair. Hutche-
sons chile parlor on the ground
floor of the Federation building at 166
W. Washington street was put on the
unfair list by the cooks and walters.
The embarrassment is increased by
tho fact that the accusing unions have
their local joint board in the same
building.
The building is not owned by the
labor organizations which are simply
like the unfair bean counter. That the
unfair" charge is hurting the chile
business is evidenced by the frantic
care with which the stickers have been
scratched OF building walls and street
car poles for hundreds of feet in every
direction.

Diplomatic relations between Ameri-

ports from Lima state. Peru is thor
oily aroused at President Coolidge's
Tacna-Arica award, and the president
of Peru has written Coolidge, charg-

The Peruvian ambassador here,
Herman velarde, has threatened to
withdraw and return to Peru, and it
is thought certain that no new am
bassador will be appointed unless the
Coolidge award is amended.
Students and workers are holding
huge demonstrations in the streets

ing the domination over all South
American countries by American cap
italists, protected by the Coolidge gov
eminent, and demanding complete in

West Virginia Mine
Explosion Came In
Wake of Open Shop
Continued from page u


bodies were found in the mine, and
rescue officials attempted to revive
hopes by declaring the report of the
finding Of the bodies of the two miners
near the foot of the shaft were false.
The disaster was admitted to have
been caused by ignited gas, which was
allowed to fill the mine in violation of
all safety precautions. At first the
rumor had been spread that the ex-
plosion was caused by bomb placed
in the mine shaft but the mine res
cuers scoffed at. this idea.
The entire mine is thought to be
on fire. The blast wrecked the struc-
ture above the mine, the debris filing
the mine shaft and blocking rescue.
The mine is owned by the Bethlehem
Mines corporation.
The electric light plant was wrecked
by the blast, and 1t was several hours
before It was again put into operation.
One Of the two main fans was started,
and the rescue men started into the
shaft. att
Miners rushed to the scene from all
sections Of the Fairmont mining field
and aided in the rescue work. while
the families and friends Of the dead
miners crowded around the wrecked
shaft.
1T is the worst explosion l have

BIG JOB STRIKE
Wage Schedules Rul e
on 40 Per Cent

NEW YORK, March 1S.-The TWEEN
ty thousand or more New York dress
makers who remained idle at their
machines in order to force jobbers to
live up to their agreement with the
union are now resuming work with
the jobbers asserting to their demand
for acceptance of the minimum wage
scale guarantees.
The stoppage ordered by this larg-
est local Of the international Ladies
Garment Workers Union held up
work on rs per cent of the spring
and Easter dresses for women Of the
whole United States.
The jobbers, after repeated confer
ences with the union and with the
contractors who were cooperating
with the union in the stoppage, are
promising to enforce minimum wage
schedules for at least 40 per cent Of
the work on each garment.
The unions proposal to establish
permanent price-flxing committee,
to settle schedules on all dresses by
representatives of jobbers, contrac-
tors and union workers rejected for
the time being.
Jobber and contractor will contin-
ne to make out price schedules by
bargaining and the workers, after
their shop chairmen compare the Of
fered schedules with accepted mini
NUNS, will agree or refuse to work
at the rates. Haggling will settle the
prices for the go per cent of the work
for which no schedules are provided.
The jobbers agree to give the
names Of non-union shops in which
they are having work done so that
the union can organize them.

BANKERS plan
PRIVATE Army
TO SHIELD GOLD
Financial Institutions
Like FOrtreSSeS
BY CARL HAEssLER,

Thousands Of rounds Of ammuni-
ton, rifles revoIVers and machine
guns, together with fortress4ite
stronahods guarding treasure vaults
in the bowels of the earth are con-
shutting the new srmories Of the rul-
ing bankers Of Illinois.
The immense equipment of weap-
ons and explosives, of barred vaults
and massive masonry make their pre-
datory predecessors of Florence, Pisa
and Venice, the legitimate pirates Of
the renaissance, look like penny pro-
fiteers in Tlnean alley.
Illinois bankers bemoan the loss Of
S325,000 taken. from them by lesser
bandits in 70 robberies last year. seiz-
ing the pretext they are arming their
own bands with government firearms,
duly purchased, and enrolling their
gunner as certified Killers under the
sheriffs Of the Illinois counties.
Testify to Bankers Fears.
Labor men may wonder why so
much money is to be spent and so
much blood splitting threatened for the
sake Of $S25,0o0 a year, less than
many a bank president has embezzIed
without breaking his institution.
The answer is that armed bands
under highly organized private con-
troll, like that exercised by the Illinois
Bankers Association, are useful for
other occasions than an occasional
bank robbery. The vaults of banks
are built nowadays not so much to
guard against the hasty safe blower
who must work and get away in a
hurry but against popular mobs. The
vaults are made to withstand mob as
saults lasting week or more. They
testify to the fear the exploiting
bankers have of the masses when the
endurance limit of exploitation has
been reached.
Want Private Army.
For this reason the bankers do not
merely want state police for which
they are lobbying at Springfield to-
gether with the other employing cor
porations. But as the ultimate econ
omic power in modern Illinois they
also want their private army, their
private artillery, their private armor-
les and their private supremacy.
VIII they get It? They now have it.
