The tribute to Samuel Gompers and
an appeal for conservative leadership
for the American Federation Of La
Dor, which appears upon another page
Of this issue, is sufficient to indicate
in what esteem the great leader was
held. 1t shows also what those who
are directly connected with the bust
ness interests OF the country expect
from Organized Labor in the selec-
ton Of Samuel Gompers successor.
That William Green, recently elect
ed president Of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, Will measure up to the
highest expectations as a eonserva-
tive and capable leader is indicated
in his record as servant Of Organ
lied Labor in the past
Those who have been intimately as
sociated with him for many years are
free in expressing their conviction that
he will prove as able a leader as his
renowned predecessor.

and Joiners of America and Vice

4 mass meeting of taxpayers Of
the county has been called where OPP
portunity to protest against alleged
abuses of the tax schedule will be
given.
While it is generally known that
tax authorities have one of the most
complex problems of any to solve il
is believed that the work of fixing
the tax schedule should be more
equtably handled.
1t is announced that those who at
tend the meeting at the Illinois
Theatre in Urbana, March 10, will be
given some surprises and that the
question will be handled without
gloves and without fear or favor.
Just what the Investigators have
up their sleeves has not as yet been
made public, but it is not unreasonable
10 assume that the fur will fly imme-
diately upon opening the discussion.
Il is to be hoped that if there are
discrepancies such as are commonly
reported in Champaign and Urbana
the facts will be given a complete
airing, no matter what the results
may be to taxpayers or to those who
are responsible for the present sched-
ules. And, on the other hand, If the
multitude of complaints are based
upon nothing more nor less than the
usual protest against taxation, the

The American Federationist has
this to say of Bill" Green, newly
elected president Of the American
Federation of Labor:
"Bill Green, we know you Of old.
We love you for your manliness and
raightforwardness You have asked
Us for our support in the great work
you have under way and with which
you have to contend. Our reply is,
You have it Can we say more?
To the doubling Thomases we say:
Let the dead past bury its dead.
Begin again, put your shoulders 10

pers wanted it to be--the best, the
greatest, the cleanest Labor organ

Loyalty of the crafts no matter
whether they be large or small, is
the one guarantee OF success as La
Dor starts on its new course under
the leadership of a man VINO is tried
and true.
This means the loyalty Of the crafts
of Champaign and UIbana--loyalty
IN the most minute detail. And to
achieve that loyalty we must have
leadership in the smaller units Of Or
ganized Labor as gifted in proportion
to the responsibilities sustained as
that required in the national offices.
Labor owes it to itself to develop a
sterling type of leadership, sane and
conservative, influential when wise
counsel is required, determined when
decisive action is necessary.

President Coolidge is quoted as
advising farmers to produce less ana
thereby obtain more for their pro
ducts. This sounds like logical
argument when viewed from the gen
eral belief that scarcity of a product
determines an ensuing rise in price.
Unfortunately the logic does not
appear to materialize in fact. Fig
ures on file in the Presidents own
Department of Labor prove that hun
dreds OF thousands of school children
are suffering from malnutrition from
want of plain, wholesome food.
1t is clear that the more the farm
er produces the worse off he is. But
no matter how much they produce il
is just as evident that millions of
American people haven't enough to
eat.
The trouble lies not with the pro-
ducer or consumer, but with the
middeman who controls distribution
and thereby exploits both the farmer
and city worker. So far the Presi-
dent has said nothing about the mid
dleman.

Labor should look askance at all
efforts to organize a Labor party. Al
best the effort is like an explosion Of
powder without the accompanying
shot.
A "new party" dedicated to the in
tefests of the reducing classes, looks
at first thought like a good thing and
we'll worth the efforts of all conscien-
tious Union men to establish. But
second thought, which is re-enforced
by experiment, shows that the vas.
majority of such new party" schemes
are visionary and impractical. Labor
has accomplished all its political ad-
vances by working through parties
already dominant, and has generally
lost ground when attempting to
change the order of events by institute
ing new party.

Superficial reasons alone can be as
signed for lack of cooperation be
tween Organized Labor and the farm
er. There are reasons which are
fundamental, and deep-seated fol
cooperation between the two g1ea;
bodies of the commonwealth. And
the chief fundamental reason for Co
operation lies in the fact that both
are the nations great producing agen-
eies. All others merely handle q
utilize the products of labor blth on

Detectives Believe i$20. 900 T

of Experts

Headquarters detectives believe
that a solution of the safe blowing
at the National Jewelry Manufac-
turing Company, 918 F street
northwest yesterday, which Melted
yeggs about $4,000 worth of
jewelry, will lead to a clearing up
of similar robberies here and in
other cities.
The manner in which the men
worked, using gloves to prevent
finger prints, blankets to deaden
noise, forcing doors and breaking
locks, leads to the conviction that
they are expert safe blowers.
Try To Trace Tools.
Headquarters Detectives Thompson
and Mansfield, working on the case,
having found no finger prints, are
deYoting their efforts to running
down the tools and other equipment
used by the yeggs. They are in
quiring at all stores which sell
these articles, hoping to get some
description of the men.
The fact that the bandits used
newly purchased tools and then
left them after the job, is additional
proof that the men were pro.
fessionaI, detectives say.

REFlJTES
CHARGE
Judge Denies He FIaunted
Opinion Of Appeals Court
in Beck Fink Case

Judge Robert E. Mattingly, Of
the Municipal Court, today denied
before the Court Of Appeals the
charge that he Haunted the de-
cision Of the latter in the case Of
Peck against Fink.
Attorney Hilton Al, jackson, APP
pearing for Judge Mattingly, filed
an answer to the rule issued against
Mattingly at the instance of At
torney Louis Gutenberg, represent
ing Mrs. Frances +. Peck, OWNER
of premises at Ella Morgan street
northwest, to whom Judge Mat.
tingly refused a judgment ousting
Jacob H. Fink, the tenant.
Summary Judgment Refused.
Judge MattingIy said that his
action was merely a refusal to
grant a summary judgment before
q trial on the merits OF the custer
proceedings, which, he maintains,
is an exercise Of judicial discretion
in view of the mandate Of the
appellate tribunal directing 'furth-
err proceedings not Inconsistent
with the opinion of the court, !"
and does not direct the entry Of al
summary judgment for possession.
The charge OF counsel for the
owner that Judge Mattingly's ac
ton in refusing to GUST the tenant
before a hearing of the facts con-
stituted IAN unqualified refusal to
follow the opinion and mandate
of thes Court Of Appeals, is stoutly
denied by the judge who declares
that on the contrary it is his In
tention, and has always been his
intention, to follow the opinion, IL
on the hearing of the case an
Interpretation of the opinion is
called for.
Judge Mattingly also denies that
Mrs. Peck had no adequate remedy
at law, and declares that to issue
a mandamus against him would
be to control his judicial discre-
ton, and would have thea effect OF
substituting mandamus for a writ
of error, which ~the Court OF
Appeals has frequently refused
to do.
Judge Mattingly asks that the
rule against him be dismissed and
the mandafnus refused.

HIGH PRICES BLAMED FOR
BRAZIL COFFEE BOYCOTT"

The reported boycott on Brazilian
coffee mentioned in South Ameri.
can cables dispatches was at
tributed by the Department OF Com
merce today to a probable decrea.H.
of coffee in this country resulting
from alleged high prices.
Information in the hands of the
department shows a reduced con-
sumption of coffee in the United
States. Officials declared that many
complaints have been received par
ticularly from the coffee trade
against the alleged high price of
Brazilian coffee. There is no indi-
cation, however, of an organized
boycott.
