tions contained In a bill for injunction
filed September l against officers and
counsel of the Springer Heirs, Inc,
were denied on behalf of the defend
ants yesterday in a joint statement by
X. G. O'Hair, and w. II. Chadwick,
named in the complaint.
The right to examination of our
records always has been conceded"
they said. Neither Mr.. O'Hair nor
Mr.. Chadwick have ever received COM
pensation from the Delaware Abstract
Co. as officers or directors, dividends
on stocks or otherwise.
The contract mentioned in the COM
plant. between the Springer Heirs.
Inc, and the Delaware Abstract Co,
was signed by one of the complain
ants, James A. Meyers. as a director.
Mr.. Chadwick was not a director. Mr..
OHair, though A director, refused to
vote, because he was member of the
Delaware Abstract Co."
The complaint asked termination OF
the contract as we'll as cancellation
OF the postponed annual meeting.
Meeting Postponed.
THE annual meeting of August 10
was postponed by the official action
of the executive committee and notice
members. Four qualified voters were
present in person at the meeting at

new officers were elected
The organization, according to its
officers, has a membership of several

shall be set over until October IS.
Origin of Company.
THE origin of the Delaware Alb.
stract Company, which company has
been assailed by complaintants. should
be explained. Mr.. O'Hair and Mr.
Chadwick. two years ago, went to
Wilmington. Del, in connection with
the claims of the Springer heirs to
property there. We ascertained that
there was no abstract clerk there to
prepare and certify abstracts of titles
and that that work was done by mem
bers of the Wilmington bar We
found that by an order of court of
Iool, pS WhlCH lne recorder was still
abiding. only attorneys of Wilmington
were permitted to examine the records
and that these attorneys made such
examinations and rendered opinions
on legalities of titles from search of
the records
The Delaware Abstract Company
was then formed by Messrs. O'Hair

space and a salaried abstractor in
Wilmington to meet these legal diff

Use State Police to Break Strikes

Der Of men in the force, the reader
will see that the cossacks had little

A Few Among Money.
Practically the entire state police
force was on strike duty for three
months, from March Is to June 8,
1915, in the anthracite and bitumin-
GUS coal regions during the miners
strike of that time.
During the street carmen's strike at
Chester, 143 members Of the con.
stabulary were on strike duty for six
weeks, from April Is to May 25, 1908.

strike duty for. two months, from July
10 to Sept. IA, 1909, and "A addition

Aug. % to Sept. 10, 1908.
During the strike at the plant of
the Bethlehem Steel Co. of Bethlehem,
Pa, 81 troopers were on strike duty
from Feb. q to April IS, 1910-eight
weeks.
Always On Strike "Duty."
During the strike of the miners in
the Westmoreland district, which last
ed sixteen months, 101 troopers were
on duty for a period of three months,
"a were on duty for four months and
81 for 16 months-from March 3, 1910,

During the strike of the molders

March 9, 1914, and % were on duty
from Aug. % to Nov. Is.
During the strike of the Wilkes
Barre Street Railway employees in
1916, 22S troopers were on strike duty
for a considerable length of time.
The above are just few instances
which will serve to show the pur
pose for which the state police is used
in Pennsylvania. They suggest a to
tally different kind of troopers from

great anthracite coal fields and also
several important steel centers. The

Pennsylvania have never seen a state

1t is obvious that the 220 troopers

Scornfully Levin tells these workers,
Just as boss or prison guard might
talk: go get a job from Local S in New
York;" The bosses say: I'VE are will
ing for you to work for u.s." But,
none the less, their shop managers are
sending the victims to Levin them
selves, and telling the workers that
they cannot work until they get an
o. X. from Levin. A carefully prepared
game to pass the buck from one to
another.
Definite Action Coming.
Against this combination between
Levin and the bosses the workers are
filling the shops and the managers
Office with appearing protest. The
left wing is crystallizing this protest
into definite action for a finish fight
to check the autocracy of the Levin
machine in depriving union members
of the opportunity to earn a living
at their trade.
The example of New York is cited
as showing how the persistent effort
Of the officials to destroy the fighting
spirit of the A. C. w. can be checked.
In New York there are fully 10000
tailors strongly behind the fight of
Local for a united and militant
union, and the coat makers have again
formed joint board of their own to
take up the fight on the reactionaries.
Protest Meeting Monday.
In Chicago the workers who have
been taken down from the job by
Levin are calling a mass meeting Of
the members of the Amalgamated to
consider the disruption and expulsion
policy Of the officials and the latest
outrage Of taking members off their

The meeting will be held on Mon
day, March 20. at s O'Clock in Temple

present situation in the union.
