NEW YORK, Feb. I9 Capt. Har-

Supreme Court Justice Wagner
found that the prosecutors had con-
fused criminal with seditious libel
and had effect told the jury that in
eriticizing a court, Captain Ely had
been trying to overthrow the gov

This accusation is not without its
humor, for the accused is a veteran

served in a bomb school at Morgan.

he was too old to be accepted for ac-

The case may be taken to the Ap-

people.
Captain Ely was given a rousing
reception on his release in a mass

INDUSTRY STILL GAINS
N. Y. REPORT INDICATES

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 19.-The
total volume of factory employment
in New York State was slightly
lower in January than in December.
A small loss is to be expected at this
time as the close of the year and in
ventories cause a temporary slacken-
ing in production but the decrease
this month included important losses
that are not entirely seasonal. The
forward movement that started in
the fall is still proceeding slowly.
This statement was issued by In
dustrial Commissioner James A.
Hamilton. 1t is based on reports
from a representative list of manu-
facturers who employ half a million
workers or about 40 per cent of the
factory workers of the State.
Employment in the railroad equip
ment factories suffered a definite
setback as a couple of thousand
workers were released in January af-
ter the improvement in December.
Declines in building materials were
more severe than usual at this sea-
son.
The significant thing in this
months employment reports was the
irregularity in the individual firms.
Apparently now the tendency up or
down is not definitely fixed for sew
eral of the industries and individual
firms are going in each direction.
This was particularly true in the
metals and textiles, which have been
moving upward in recent months.

TRADE UNION MEMBERSHIP DOUBLED IN
t9lG2O DECADE, ECONOMIC BUREAU SAYS

NEW YORK CITY, Feb. 19.-
Compared with the total number of
wage earners in this country, trade
union strength as measured by it's
membership was relatively twice as
great in 1920 as in 1910, according to
report just issued by the Nation
al Bureau of Economic Research,
New York, under the title "The
Growth of American Trade Union,
1s80-1923." John P. Frey, editor of
the Molders' Journal and president
of the Ohio State Federation of La
Dor, is president of the National Bur-
eau for Economic Research, Inc,
which is an organization for impair
tial investigation.
The rate of growth during the de-
cade, 1910-192O, this report shows,
was approximately the same whether
membership is compared with the in
dustrial wage-earning population Of
the country or with the combined in
dustrial and agricultural wage-earn-
ing population.

In copyrighted table that sum-

exhaustive investigation upon which
DR.. Leo Wolman and his assistants,
under the general direction of DR..
Wesley C. Mitchell and DR.. Edwin F..
Gay, co-directors of the National Bu-
reau of Economic Research, have been
engaged for over a year, it is shown
that at the end of the decade one
fifth of the wage earners of the coun-
try were members of labor organiza-
tions, whereas in 1910 something like
one-tenth were so organized.
In other words, in 1920, after ten
years of very substantial growth in
numbers, about four-fifths of the gen.
eral category of wage earners were
not members of unions. The figures

Strength and Weakness Revealed
"While these figures are in them
selves Of considerable interest,"" the
bureaus report continues, their full
significance can not be clear without
detailed inquiry into the sources of
union strength and weakness. Such
inquiry can be conducted only by
discovering the varying magnitude of
trade unionism in the great divisions
of industry.
at has long been generally appre-
ciated that labor organizations re-
ceive their first impetus and make
their most striking headway among
the socalled manual workers, those
who work in factories and mines, on
railroads and buildings; and that
they have their most retarded devel-
opment among persons, sometimes
described as white-collar workers,
who embrace unionism late and slow
