Gen., AN WORKERS GO TO MOSCOW
AS WE SEE 1T
BY T. }. o'FLAHERTY

TWO sets of alientists who examined
4 Russell T. Scott, condemned slayer,
now fighting to dodge the gallows,
have reached different conclusions as
to his sanity. What must be proved
is whether or not he became insane
since his trial and conviction for the
murder of drug clerk, during souse
party in drug store. Those who are
paid by the state declare he is sane,
while the alienists employed by the
defense, find him crazy.
THIS same Scott, by the way, was
4 once the director of a thirtys mil
lion dollar corporation. Those were
the days when the boobery, as H. L.
Hencken calls easily gulled people,
who think the way to wealth is open
to the common people, had saved
some money from the hectic war Pc
Rod when the House of Morgan need
ed munitions so hastily that cost plus
was the rule and not the exception.
Even the wage slaves were able to
store up a little coin. It was then
that fellows like Russell came along
and decided to relieve the thrifty
workers of their war booty.
MOST of those wild caters have hit
4NAthe tobaggon by now. That is, the
companies are gone and so is the
money that was seduced from the
small fry. The big fellows have their
own legitimate channels for swind-
ling. Scott evolved many schemes to
show the people" how to get rich.
Morgan was standing between them
and wealth he said: Scott would
build a bridge between them and
prosperity. This he labelled the
Scott idea. Finally the bubble burst
and Scott took to holding up people
with a gat. Much the same kind of a
sport but more risky.
THE idea of getting rick quick" has
great fascination for Americans,
even for the working class who have
not yet realized that only one out of
every hundred thousand who tries the
game Of legalized graft gets anywhere
but within speaking distance of the
flop house. Successful spectators
play a big role in American society
Those who do not succeed are lucky
If they don't land in Jail. Barney

PRESS WALKOUT.
CuneO Plant Picketed
BY Local Freshmen

The pressmen who walked out
when the cuneo printing company
tried to reduce the crews on the
presses from four to three men,
congreeated in front Of the plant at
22nd and Grove Sts., Drawing several
fIivver squads Of police, and warned
those looking for work to stay away.
Meanwhile "Major" George L. Berry
sent In members Of the International
Printing Pressmen's and Assistants
Union to scab on members of Local
No. 8.
Strikebreaker Berry, president of
the International Union, ordered the
local pressmen to accept the Cuneo
company's terms, thus playing his
usual role of aiding the open shop
campaign of the printers. The
pressmen, however, walked out from
this plant and from the Cuneo build
ings at Arlington and Spaulding
SITS. and refused to take orders from
the scabby Berry.
cuneo Presses Crippled.
Berry is in Chicago now, and was

The presses at both the Cuneo

Young Workers League Bulletin.
The Young Workers League Nucleus
of workers in the Cuneo plant issued
a strike bulletin which was popular
with the pressmen who had quit work.
The bulletin is given below:
All Workers Must Support Pressmen
In Strike! Must Organize HelpersI
The pressmen in the two Cuneo
plants are on strike. The bosses went
to remove one pressman from each
machine instead of hiring two press
men and two helpers as in the past.
Those young workers at Cuneo's
who are organized into the Guinea nu-
cleus of the Young Workers League
call upon all of the workers at Cuneo's
(organized and unorganized) to sup
port the pressmen at the present time.
The fight which they are carrying on
effects the interests of everyone of us
whether we are organized or morgan
lied, helper or apprentice, whether we
work in the bindery or in the press
rooms. ga.a8
Threat of "open shop"
The bosses always want to reduce
the number of organized workers and
to increase the number of. unorgan-
lied young workers since this brings
them closer to the open shop condi-
lions which mean bigger profits for
them and lower wages for all of u.s.
The Company could never get away
with this kind of stuff if the helpers
and other assistants were organized.

One of the baseball fans at the World Series in Washington had such bad cold he was coughing, sneezing and bleary-eyed, Mike Mar tin the big league trainer saw his condition and the advice he gave the chap was so good we publish it here for anybody eles with a bad cold or the grippe.
 If you were on my team Id give you good bawing out for showing up with such bad cold" declared Mike. 'T'd have you stripped from the waist up and rubbed thoroughly with liniment on neck, back, and chest and then I'd sprinkle about six drops of the same liniment on a lump of sugar and make you dis solve it slowly in the mouth. That's the way we knock bad cold and the sore achy feeling out of a big league baseball player and get rid of his cough and whcczing."
 Go home and tell your wife to rub you good tonight and tomorrow morning you'll be tip-top. Take a rub again in the morning however so the linimcnts heat will keep your chest warm and avoid fresh cold"
