Trying to Take the
Joy Out of Life

Washington - Somebody's always
trying to take the joy out of life.
Three years ago Roy Haynes, pro-
hibition director, employed Miss
Georgia Hopley, OF Bucyrus, Ohio, as
propaganda agent for the prohibition
department. She was paid $2,5OO a
year and all expenses. Miss Hopley
had three assistants, whose duty it
was to "press agent" prohibition en-
fOrcement.
The first recommendation of Cen
eral Andrews, who has taken over
the enforcement unit, was that the
press agents be fired, even though C.
&. Crabbe, Senator Willis and the en-
tire Ohio crowd protested.
Now movement is on foot to com
pei Haynes to reimburse the govern
ment for the $1,000 which it has
paid Miss Hopley, it being the con-
tention that the prohibition unit was
to enforce the law, not to spread
propaganda regarding Haynes.

LOW WAGES
Affect Farmer and Commerce by Les
sening Consuming Power

Washington-The agriculture, press
is accepting the theory that low
wages of industrial workers affect
the farmer and commerce, through a
lessened consuming power, says Eth
Gilbert Stewart, commissioner of the
United States bureau of labor statis-
tics.
"The agricultural press" said Mr..
Stewart, "is showing greater appre
citation of the position always taken
by the bureau Of labor statistics that
the earnings of the workers, who con-
stitute the largest numerical element
Of our population, can not be depress-
ed, nor the volume of employment in
industry decreased, without it react.
ing upon the whole range of bust
ltess in the shape of decreased con-
sumption and hence a forced lower
ing of prices to a point where indus
try and commerce are hit just as hard
as the workern themselves are hit"
Mr.. Stewart illustrates this point
by showing that the consumption Of
creamery butter is related to the vol
ume of employment.

WITH
Identity Exposed

1t was indeed a great day for our
Hired Man" when the news was
Sprung" that he was to come into his
own by having his real identity ex-
posed to the public.
Ardent readers of the Hired Man"
column have always been curious
about him and our decision to place
his picture at the head of the column
he has made famous will undoubted-
ly meet with no little approval.
Time and labor have been no OBJ
ject in making this debut an elabor-
ate one.
To those who imagined him as an
old fossil with perpetual crouch it
will be a great disappointment-but
TO look upon his countenance over his
column will be sufficient to erase that
feeling from the minds of all who
entertained it.
He is plain human. Likes sports,
loves children, devoted to his family
and every now and then, on swelt-
ering day, remarks how good a glass
of more than one-half of one per cent
would taste-so you can see he is no
reformer.
His column will continue to appear
weekly in the Leader.

ANOTHER CUT
UnOrganized Workers of American
WOOlen Co. Affected

Lawrence, Mass-Unorganized en-
ployes of the American woOlen COM
pany have received another slice OF
the prosperity promised them in the
form of a 10 per cent wage reduc
ton. About 10000 employees in this
city are affected.
"The reduction is made neces-
sary by present business condi-
tions," the announcement said.
1t is intimated that other mills
will likewise "readjust" wages.
Until recently the woolen trust
maintained paternal attitude toward
its employees. On the occasion of one
visit to this city, President Wood of
the trust was wildly acclaimed by the
inhabitants. His costly ventures,
however, resulted in a reorganization
of the board of directors and his re-
tirement. The welfare plans were
abandoned, and now these workers
face a 10 per cent wage cut for de-
pending upon others rather than up
on themselves.

Fifteen Accidents
Mar "Safety Week.

GAINESVILLE, O.-Strange as it may
seem, Safety Week, which was observ-
ed in this city, was held at a time
when more accidents occurred than in
like period in this city in years.
According to report, not less than
fifteen accidents occurred, with one
fatality and nearly a score of per-
sons injured The majority of these
accidents were automobile crashes.
The last and most serious mishap
was when the green bus used by the
Street Railway Co. in the east end
district, upet on Eastman street, at
about 10 o'clock last Saturday night.
The bus was crowded with passen-
gers at the time. After overturning
the bus caught fire and in a few min
utes the gasoline tank exploded. That
many passengers were not killed is
considered a miracle. Only three per-
sons were injured, all of whom were
not considered seriously hurt. The
one fatality occurred when Mr.. Alva
H. Hines fell from a third story win
dow of the court house and met with
almost instant death.

Strike Profitable
To Mine Operators

Atlantic City, N. IA strike in
the antracite fields would prove prof
table to the operators.
"The operators have everything to
gain by a suspension" said Chris j.
Golden, president of the Shamokin
district. "They have 100000 tons
of coal on hand. We want no sus-
pension because we want to keep our
members working. When they don't
work, they get no pay. The operators
will make large profits through a
strike or panic in the consumers
minds"
At the recent tri-district conven-
ton of anthracite miners in Scran-
ton, Andrew Mattey, president of the
Hazelton district, expressed the same
views.
"The operators claim they have
100000 tons of COAL" said Presi-
dent Mattey. "a suspension means
$10,000,000 more in their pocket
books. When the agreement expires
and another has not been made, the
mines will be closed, not by you, but
by the operators. Two weeks later
the coal will begin to move, but not
for the same price. Public clamor
will send the price up 81 ton. If
the suspension continues, it may be
that instead of paying $18 ton the
public will have to pay $23.
"The public and the press will
blame the miners and the operators
will get the dough-"

Life Insurance Controlled by Organized Labor
Wall St. Is Backing
Bakers Big Trust

New York-Wall Street is pro-
ceeding with its plans to form bak-
ers' trust which viii control practi-
cally all the bakeries in the country.
Some months ago the Peoples Leg
islative Service announced through
it's director, Basil Manly, that the big
bakers were taking $500,000,00O a
year from the people in the form of
excess prices for bread. Perhaps they
will be able to surpass that figure if
they can get under one head.
Just now the industry is divided be-
tween five combines: Continental
Baking Co., General Baking Co.,
Ward Baking Co., Purity Baking Co.
and Southern Baking Co.
The profits of the Ward concern
went up 40 per cent in 1924 over 1923;
and the returns so far made public in
dicate it will do much better this
year.
The milling trust is a little afraid
of the bakers combine, believing that
when it is perfected it will be able
to dictate the price it will pay for
flour as we'll as the price it will
charge for its bread.
In other words, it will be able to
hold up the millers on one hand and
the consumers on the other.

FARM QUESTION
Report Shows That Many Are Leav-
ing the Farms for City Life

Washington-That the industrial
worker should be interested in a So
luton of the farm question is again
emphasized by government reports.
In a survey by the department of
agriculture, it is shown that agricul-
tural workers, farm tenants and farm
owners are flocking to cities by the
thousands. This influx increases the
competition for jobs in industry and
makes the farm question of first i'm
portance to city workers.
The survey reveals that on January
1, 1925, there were about 100000 few
er hired laborers on farms than on
January 1, 1924. These figures do
not include migratory workers, but
apply only to hired laborers who live
on farms at least 80 days. Other
figures show that thousands of farm
tenants and farm owners and their
families have left the farms.

NOT GUILTY
Such Is a Case With the Whipping
Boss of Dixie Lumber Co.

Cross City, Fla.-Thomas w. Hig-
ginbotham, whipping boss at the Put
nam lumber company camp in Dixie
county, has been declared not guilty
of second degree murder in connection
with the death of Martin Talbert.
North Dakota farmer boy. Higgin-
botham must face trial for alleged
completely in the death of Lewis
Barker, negro, last fall.
The whipping boss was indicted for
murder two years ago. He was
charged with killing young Talbert
who had been arrested for stealing a
ride on a freight train and sentenced
to the lumber camp. The trial re-
vealed that the judge and other off
cials were paid by the company for
sentencing prisoners to the camp.
where Higginbotham was Whipping
boss.
The trial resulted in such unfavor-
able publicity that the state legisla-
ture passed a law that forbids the
leasing of convicts to private COM
panies and abolished the lash in pris-
on camps.
The lumber company paid a large
sum of money to the family of young
Talbert.

Many Agree With Us

What the "Hired Man" said last
week about the automatic semaphore
signal traffic regulator now working
out a trial stunt at the West Main
and Fourth street crossing, evidently
met with the approval of a great
many people who agree with him in
the opinion that it's installation at the
present time would be entirely un-
necessary and a needless waste of the
peoples money.
Lots of auto drivers say it would
be a nuisance and would be one more
burden added to those already caused
by the "fifty-seven varieties" of rules
and regulations governing the driv-
ing, parking, lighting, stop and go
orders, and so on and so forth now in
force. AS it is many machine driV-
ers are already avoiding using this
crossing in order to escape what they
look upon as a nuisance.
Yes, that little article hit a bunch
of the people as about right. Read
what one of them has to say:
"Mr Editor-I take all the city
papers, Tribune, Advocate and Lead
er, and noticed that each had quite an
article in about the new traffic light
installed at Fourth and Main. After
reading them all, | must say you
were the only one who in my opinion
took the right stand against this
thing.
"The city has no more use for traf-
fic lights like the one installed than
it has for a new livery stable. 1t
seems as if some of our present city
officials think they were put on these
jobs just to think up some scheme to
spend the taxpayers money within
the six months limit so they could
ask for an increase in appropriations
every six months.
1t is all right to make improve
ments, and no taxpayer will ever
kick if they are the ones the city
needs most. Just commence to cut
weeds and repair streets, better Off
GERS and not so many Of them, better
lighting for the streets, and no more
of these sleuthhounds spotting tail
lights and telephoning to headquar-
ters to come quick.
eff the bad places in our streets
were taken care of in time we could
have the best streets of any city in
the state. If Main and some of our
other streets were repaired the auto
owners would save enough on tires to
install any kind of traffic lights need
ed, yes, if needed. l was informed
by a city official that we have spot
ers for tail light and parking of ma
chimes. | suppose this is the reason
for the purchasing of a new car.
"These are the things that spoil a
good city, and no wonder the official
you mentioned in your paper two
weeks ago was ashamed to tell he was
from Newark. If was running this
city l would rather take a cussing
every day than to have the business
men and taxpayers just smile and
