HERE THEY ARE
BOUQUETS AND BRICKBATS
ARE DISTRIBUTED
CommendatiOn and Criticism Handed
Out PrOmiscuOusly as Deemed
Just by Our Hired Man
1T WORKED IN OHIO

The extensive, intensive and expen-
sive propaganda which has been wag-
ed by the big combines and corpora
tions to hoodwink the farmers and
mislead and deceive them as to the
real intent and purpose of the Child
Labor Amendment has proved grand
success in Ohio, as was evidenced by
the action of the House last Tuesday,
when the proposition was showed un-
der by vote of 81 noes to 35 ayes
From start to finish the agricultur-
ist has been told that should the
amendment be endorsed by suffl-
cient number of states it would at
once prohibit the employment OF chill
dren under eighteen years OF age IN
anv capacity whatever, that the farm
bow could not milk the COWS or the
girl assist her mother in washing
dishes; and about nine out of ten OF
the farmers believed it, and naturally
resented such a high-handed meas
ure.
The real object of the amendment
is to empower congress to pass laws
which the supreme court could not
knock out, to protect children being
exploited in the mines, mills, factories
and sweatshops, as is now the case
and not to put a stop to their employ
ment on the farms of their own par
ents.
The adoption of the amendment was
urged by welfare associations, church
societies, organized labor, women;
clubs and federations and all persons
who really had the welfare of chill
dren at heart, but in Ohio, as in ;
. number Of other states, the opposi
, ton by money and influence ha!
scored a victory and defeated one o.
the best and most deserving measure
ever produced

Federal Land Bank
Distributes Profits

Columbus-Distribution of $2,500
of the Federal Land banks profits to
those who have made loans through
the association has been completed by
A. Cfellin, secretary and treasurer Of
the Columbus National Farm Loan
Association. This branch covers the
counties Of Franklin, Madison, Lick
ing, Fairfield, Delaware and Picka-
way.
Loan applications, according to Mr..
Crellin for the past two years total
ing $1,725,O0O have been filed and he
reports no foreclosures or losses. No
borrowers are delinquent in their pay
ments, and, he further states, this
association is one of the largest
branches in the East.
These loans are made to farmers
under the Federal Land bank act
passed by congress in 1916, running
for 3412 years at 512 % interest, pay
able $3.50 per $1,000 each six months
which retires the entire loan, both
principal and interest in that time.
Agricultural conditions in the coun-
ties comprising the Columbus associa-
ton territory are materially improv-
ed, according to Mr.. Crellin. He says
farmers are feeling optimistic as tc
the future, This feeling, he said, is
due to the increased prices of then
products and more stabilized condi.
tions of the industry in general

Labor College to
Start i'm Hamilton

Hamilton, O.-At we'll attended
meeting held at labor temple last
week plans were formulated for the
organization and opening of labor
college in Hamilton.
After much discussion and ques-
tions asked by those present it was
decided the college will open Febru-
ary 4. From the enthusiasm and
Willingness to participate on the part
of the people present there will, it is
estimated, be fully 100 enrolled, at
the beginning, more than fifty hav-
ing already expressed their intention
of taking advantage of the opportun-
ity for bettering their education.
There will be instruction in five
subjects in the labor college, includ-
ing public speaking, parliamentary
law, history of labor, economic his
tory and English grammar.
Professor Lloyd M. Cosgrave, of
the Workers Education Bureau of
America, New York city, who was
present and aided in organizing the
college, stated the purpose of the lab
or college is to give the adult wage
earners some knowledge of the origin
and dvelopment of those institutions
upon which present social, economic
industrial and political conceptions
and practice are founded.

A SHORTER WEEK
COMING

NEW YORK-The New York
~ World is not alarmed at five
day week demands. After review
ing the reduction of hours and the
revolution in industry through lab
or-saving machinery, the editor
asks:
"The five-day week? Well, why
not? A Saturday morning clip
ped off the schedule and we shall
have it.
"What a dream this would have
seemed hundred years ago. Then
a l4-hour day, six days week,
was common enough. One of the
first fights of our infant labor
unions was for the 12-hour day,
and then for the eight-hour day.
$50, after a period of readJust-
ment, we are beginning to find the
early commentators on the indus
trial revolution were right after
all. They, seeing machines ap-
pearing everywhere, were delight
ed, and predicted that machines
would eventually relieve human be-
ings of long and degrading labor:
But economists scoffed. Karl
Marx, in particular, jeered and
snarled, and proved by algebra that
machines only served to grind the
laborer more cruelty. But eco
nomists sometimes are wrong"

LANDLORDS ARE
SCARED

WASHINGTON-Real estate men
throughout the country are
protesting to congress against a
drastic rent-regulation bill for the
District of Columbia that is being
considered by national lawmakers.
Since the war, housing in Wash
ington has been a serious problem.
During the war the government
erected several large buildings to
house its women office workers.
The government continues to oper-
ate these institutions.
Real estate men have insisted
there is no housing problem They
have fought the creation of a rent
commission, which has been made
impotent through court decisions.
The bill that alarms them pro-
vides that a commission shall ex-
anime books and other documents
of real estate owners and also fix
rents. If rents higher than the
commissions award is charged, the
tenant may sue to recover double
the amount of such excess and
costs. The owner may also be fin
ed up to $1,000 and imprisoned one
year or less.

Want to Crowd Out
the Small Merchant

Chicago-Unless the local mer-
chants in every city in the country
get busy right now they will wake up
some fine morning to discover that
the big corporation stores have taken
their business away.
The announcement that, beginning
in February, the Sears Roebuck COM
pany will start series of chain stores
which is to embrace every city in the
country, coupled with the recent con-
solidation of several thousand grocery
stores into one huge corporation, can
be taken as a weather-cock showing
the direction Of the wind.
At the present rate of progress the
stores, backed by untold millions Of
dollars, will drive a large number of
home town merchants out of business
within the next five years unless i'm
mediate steps are taken to hold the
| business.
/ The chain store puts very little in
to a city, but it takes out a tremend-
Gus amount of money. 1t has no civic
pride and it doesn't care two whoops
about the citizens. 1t is interested
only in selling for cash and getting
it's profits. But thoughtless folks
have a habit of buying where the
prices are low, never giving a thought
to the obvious fact that later on they
will have to pay a heavy penalty fol
their thoughtlessness.
If the local merchants wish to re-
: main in business. they will have tt
combine and help create a local CO
] operative spirit.

Judge Puts Stop to
Prison Shirtmaking

Indianapolis-After ruling the con-
tract for the prison labor of the in
mates of the Indiana reformatory,
made between the trustees of the in
stitution and the Worthy Manufacture
ing Co. of New York, illegal, Judge
Hay Of the indianapolis superior
court set a day for formal ruling on
the injunction suit brought against
the manufacturing company and the
trustees.
The suit was brought by Charles J..
Buschmann, president Lewis Meier
Co., shirt manufacturers Of Indiana
polls, Feb. /, 1924. 1t asks that the
trustees be restrained from delivering
any more Of the 100000 blue cham
bray shirts alleged to have been con
tracted for at the rate of soc dozen,
and to be delivered at The rate Of f00,-
pany be ordered to take its machin-
cry from the state institution. The
judges ruling is virtual granting of
the petition. The ruling holds speci-
fically that there is evidence of a vio-
lation Of the law.
Indiana in 1905 was the scene OF
many political and Legislative battles
on the. prison labor question. The
general assembly Of that year abolish
ed it entirely. This was amended ir
1917 to permit the working of pris.
oners with the provision that the
products be sold to the other state in
stitutions and any surplus be sold OF
the open market. The ruling of Judge
i Hay is expected also to settle litiga
ton over contracts for labor made by
other Of the state institutions.
The contract was made Nov. IA
1925. 1t stipulates that the state is t.
furnish the building, space and pow
er for the operation of the machin
cry and the Worthy company is t,
furnish the shirt machinery, the ma
terial, instructors and supplies. 1t i
doubtful if an appeal to the state su
preme court will be taken by the pris

1924 a Poor Year
For Coal Industry

Indianapolis, Ind.-The year 1924
was poor one for the bituminous
coal industry, according to officials of
the United Mine Workers. Hundreds
of miners were idle. Hundreds more
worked only fraction Of the time.
Few mines were operated. full time,
and soft coal miners all over the
country were hit by unemployment.
They did not earn decent living, the
statement from international head
quarters declares.
Non-union coal companies in West
Virginia and Kentucky followed their
old policy of cut-throating one anoth-
er, and the entire industry, in order
to get business. They cut the wages
of their miners who were helpless to
protest. They cut the prices of then
coal, Next they again cut the miners
wages and again reduced the price OF
coal. They have followed this plan
until their employees are working fol
starvation wages. The public has en-
couraged these non-uniOn coal com
panies in this policy by buying then
coal instead Of buying coal that is
produced under decent American con
ditions. Apparently the public con
science approves the starving Of these
poor miners and their families if thus
it obtains cheap coal.
The United Mine Workers propose
to help these miserable slaves by or
ganizing them and putting them on {
higher level of living. This could no
be accomplished in 1924, but Ions
steps can be taken in 1925, the state
, ment by the International Union con
| cludeS.
