'PROGS' WANT TO

Long for Days That Are
Gone Forever

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 A con.
gressional inquiry to determine
whether there has been complete
collapse Of the governments prose
cutions under the antitrust laws is
being considered by senate progress
sives, it was learned today.
The department of justice, it was
disclosed officially, has lost nearly
every antitrust action instituted in
the federal courts since July l., 1924,
excepting those in which pleas of
guilty or the so-called consent de-
.crees" have been entered. Most of
them have been removed from court

Sargent as attorney general
Want Trust Busting.
The record of the last year and a
half is in marked contrast to the
trust busting" days of the Roosevelt.
Taft and Wilson administrations,
when such great combinations as the
Standard Oil, Eastman Kodak, Du-
points, Union Pacific, Southern Paci-
fic, National Cash Register and others
came under attack.
The senate progressives contend
the laws are still the same and the
combinations are greater than ever,
and they are planning to inquire why
there are no prosecutions.
Since July, 1924, twelve major anti
trust actions have been dismissed or
decided adversely to the government.
Three consent DEGREES were entered.
In four other cases a number of de.
PENDANTS entered pleas OF guilty and
were assessed fines.

HOUSE AND SENATE
QUARREL OVER WHO

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. - The
agreements for funding $s,ooo,Ooo'-
600 Of Americas wartime foreign
debts have aroused a keen contro-
versy in congress, II was learned TO-
dav. with administration leaders OF
house and senate eIashlng over the
question as to which branch has the
legal right to ratIfy the settlements
first.
The controversy may delay hnal
ratification Of the settlements and
result in one Of the most unusual
clashes over legislative prerosatIVes
that has ever cropped up in the MS
tory Of the congress. The Issue has
settled upon the right Of the senate
to ratify the settlements before the
house has taken that action.
House leaders, democrats joining
alike with the republicans, contend
ed the bills were revenue measures
and that under the houses constltu-
tIonaI powers, the bills must "orl-
climate" In the lower branch of con-
aress. Senatorial leaders deny the
bills are revenue measures and that
therefore, the upper branch has the
right to act upon them whenever
it desires.

GERMAN TRADE
UNIONS SUFFER
HEAVY LOSSES
Still 100000 L ess
Than In 1922

How the sAyrocketing Of German
finance produced by the attempt to
enforce the Versailles treaty has re-
acted on the German trade unions Is
shown by 1924 membership statistics
In the year book of the General Fed
GRAFTON of German Trade Unions. A
continuous and rapid decrease in
membership reduced the total from
gy805,9O4 at the end of 1929 to g.
e7E002 at the end Of 1924.
The rapid decline began In the last
quarter Of 1923 after the currency cri-
sis had put down production, causing
wide unemployment. In that quarter
trade union membership fell of by
1897, 1892. Throughout 1924 it con-
timed to fall, the loss in that year
totaling 1,766,125 members. But in
spite OF these heavy LOSSES amount
ing to S,SSO,9O2 members, the fedora
ton membership at the end Of 1924
was nearly 100000 ahead of 1918.
The average annual membership in
1924 was 4,564,163 compared with
2,B73,71S in 1913. For 16 of the larger
organizations composing the general

MACHINE MINING
TO BREAK UNON
is BOSSES PLAN
Few Men at High Pay;
Rest Can Starve

Negotiations in progress in joint
commission composed Of representa-
tives of the Illinois mine workers and
the operators of the state may soon
result in considerable changes in the
lives of Illinois coaldiggers. Accord
ing to a report on the Illinois mining
institute by the Coal Age, pressure is
being exerted to hasten action by the
commission in order that rapid intro
duction of machine loading may meet
nonunion competition.
"Mechanization Of coal mines is at
our door,, said J. A. Garcia, of the in
stitute executive board. "We are con-
fronted with competition from other
states whose favorable running rates
are enabling them to take our mar
kets. This has put our industry in
Illinois in a most deplorable state and
in my judgment the crisis can be met
--Js. ~ tho -raaehanizatinn of our
Mines"
Other speakers, cited by the Coal
Age, asserted that because a reduc-
ton in wage rates could not be ex-
pected, "a complete new order Of pro-
ducing coal must be made if the state
is to maintain itself Many changes
will be noted in the next years, es-
pecially in the cleaning Of mechani-
cally loaded COAL"
Machine loading, according to the
Coal Age, reduces the number of men
in a mine and cuts down by so per
cent the number of working places re-
CURED under hand loading. Concen-
tration of working force such as this
reduces the length of entry 10 be kept
up, and the investment for rails, wire
and supplies. 1t was estimated that
in a period of years a mine can be
fully equipped with machine leaders
bought with the earnings of those first
installed"
This description brings out the re-
evolutionary change in the coaldiggers'
position the loading machines will pro.
duce. It is similar to that produced
in the lives of Independent craftsmen
by power machinery and the factory
system in the 18th century. It takes
away the freedom enjoyed by the
craftsman working in his cottage or
the miner working alone with his bud
dy in his underground room or place.
1t substitutes the discipline of the fac
tory with its constant supervision bv
the boss and its regular hours of
work. The machine must turn out
its quota Of production every day TO
produce the return on the investment.
The freedom Of the miners will be
subject to this investment demand of
the machine.
Another important feature of the
change is that most Of the saving
machine loading must be a
saving in wages This will not neces.
sarily mean reduction in the wages OF
the individual leaders, which may be
protected by the agreement as to the
machine scale, but reduction in the
number of miners employed. It will
reduce the total wages paid by a given
mine even If the machine loader Is
not cut, though the companies would
like to slash his individual pay as
we'll.
