California Bosses
Out to Hang Ford
q. L. o. News serviee)

Twelve years ago Richard Ford and
Herman Suhr we're sentenced to serve
life terms in prison after being con-
victed on murder charges arising out
Of the killing of the district attorney
Of Yuba County, California, during an
outbreak among hop pickers on the
burst ranch in the same county. Tho
the prosecution did not even accuse
the defendants of having advocated
violence not to mention having COM
mitted the actual killing they were
sent to jail by jury inflamed to a
frenzy by stories of the Chicago an
archist trial retailed by the prosecu-
ton.
After twelve years Ford was pa
rolled by the board Of prison directors
but no sooner did the news of his re-
lease reach the press than the reac-
tionaries were again barking at his
heels thirsting for his blood. The
situation now is that Ford will be
again prosecuted and charged with
the murder of Deputy Sheriff Reardon.
Every reactionary bloodhound in Cali
fornia will cry for his head and the
workers from one end OF the country
to the other must rally to snatch an
other working class life from the gal
lows

ONE resolution denouncing militar-
~ ism found its way into the At
lantic City convention.
1t was introduced by the delegates
Of the Cloth Hat, Cap and Millinery
Workers International Union pursu.
ant to the instructions of the unions
fifteenth biennial convention.
The most important parts of this re.
solution, which placed the issue OF
the trade unions and militarism
squarely before the convention, are
as follows:
Whereas, The citizens military
training camps are run Jointly by
the employers thru the Military
Training Camps Association and
the war department, for the pur-
pose of giving military training to
and developing spirit Of milltar-
ism In the working people, so that
they may be used as cannon fod-
der to promote the imperiaIsts'
ambitions of Wall Street, many of
whose leaders include labor hating
open shop employers who are on
the advisory board of the Military
Training Camps Association; and
"Whereas, The Military Training
Camps Association practically de-
termines the policy Of the training
camps and uses them in an attempt
to foster it's open shop campaigns,
and is trying to bride the workers
by offering them a months vaea-
ton for the special purpose Of at
tending these camps, because they
consider the military training as
good investment to undermine or
ganized labor; and
whereas, The American Fedora
ton of Labor is pledged to promote
international peace and good will
among the nations upon the basis
full and unqualified national self
determination for all the peoples OF
the world; therefore, be it
"Resolved, That this 45th annual
convention of the American Fedora
ton of Labor again goes on record
as vehementIy opposed to any at
tempt to foster the spirit of mill
tarism, whether it be thru the citl-
zens' military training camps or
thru any other means"
THE record of violence in the Unit
L ed States against striking work
ers is unparalleled by that OF an!
other capitalist nation. The use o
troops. federal army units and late

ises the entire industry satisfactory

Capitalization if the steel producers
will get together and stop pushing
competition to the point of accept
ing unreasonably low prices for our
commodities"
Merely Reasonable"
Reasonable prices" he says, bring
the greatest good to everyone. Every
one should keep away from getting
another's business by unfair methods.
We would make more dollars and
cents in the long run if we took our
share of business at fair proiit."
Gary means to re-establish the in
formal gatherings, known as Gary din
ners, thru which the steel barons ELI
minated competition and paid big pro-
fits on heavily watered capitalization
before the Roosevelt-Wilson antitrust
period. He says.
"As a suggestion for consideration
by the iron and steel industry would
il be advisable to make another effort
to stabilize the business? If meetings
should occasionally be held by the
manufacturers for the discussion OF
business on the lines pursued in 1917
and representative Of the depart
ment of justice should be designated
to attend and listen, and whenever
necessary and appropriate to advise
concerning the law, what would be

for Gary's suggestions are apt to be
taken as the soft voice of a dictator.
The last of Gary luncheons on this
model were in 1908. Are they now
to be resumed under the benefcent
sanction of the government?
This return to covert combination
in restraint of trade will be the ma
tural fruit of the supreme courts de-
cision in the maple flooring and ce-
ment cases. Commenting on these
decisions The Wall Street Journal
said:
"The decision Of the court permits
manufacturers, thru their associa-
tions, to gather and disseminate in
formation on practically every phase
of their business but makes II plain
that any agreements between them to
fix prices. restrain production or allot
territory are in violation of the law.
Nothing Illegal"
This sounds as IL the Sherman act
we're still to be enforced. But the
Journal shows that the court left
door open wide enough for any com.

buted, curtail output there is moth

The supreme court as now consti-
tuted refused to accept the position
that the gathering and dissemination
of information inevitably led to agree
ments and understandings restraining
trade. And as the smaller steel pro-
ducers know that U. S. Steel can
wreck them whenever it chooses, it
will require less than hint to end
cutthroat competition. 1t will not be
an agreement, it will be obedience to
a dictator.

 John Wilkes Booth eluded his pursuers for II days. He was fed by Thomas A. Jones in the mean time in a grove along the Potomac. Lieutenant Baker of the Secret Ser vice, who had often seen Booth, and his men were watching the fugitive. When he crossed the river he was suspected and chased to the Gar rett farm.
 Baker and his men surrounded the house and after some barley they ascertained that Booth and Her. old were in the barn. They demand ed several times that he come out. Colonel Conger's men were surround ing the barn. They threatened to set fire to the barn and Herold emerged and surrendered. Booth re fused, saying he would die in the last ditch The barn was set afire.
 Boston Corbett, sergeant, saw Booth through a crack and disobey- ing orders, shot him. He was brot out by Conger's men and died in three hours. The body was brought to Washington and identified by va rious men who knew Booth. One, Dr. John F. May, identified the body by an ugly wound on the neck from an operation performed some time before Against his physicians ad vice Booth insisted on acting, and reopened the wound, which healed badly
 Booth was buried under fedora prison and an accurate, detailed re port made of position and condition as required. Later Edwin Booth, ac brother of the slayer, obtained an order allowing him to see the body hoping that a mistake had been made. He viewed the body and iden tified it as that of his brother. He also called in dentists who identi fled filings in the teeth of the body which made identification positive Edwin Booth claimed the body anC buried it in the family buryinI ground at Baltimore in an unmarked grave"

 Harry Perkin of this city broke his arm in obliging J. K. Lewis, a produce broker, whose car would not start, and then sued Lewis for $1,- 300. The courts decision was that Perkin knew, or should have known, the risk he was running.
 Perkin claimed Lewis asked his aid in cranking the automobile, and also asserted that Lewis gave the engine to much spark as it was be ing cranked.
