HARD COAL STRIKE
Address by President Lewis is Fol-

Labor Support.

Atlantic City, N. j. - m, - The
American Federation of Labor today
unanimously voted to extend its COM
plete endorsement and sympathy to the
$4,000 members of the United Mine
Workers Of America now engaged in
the strike in the anthracite industry.
The action was taken after President
John L. Lewis of the miners had adj
dressed the delegates and was enthus-
istically greeted.
The convention was also on record
today as fkvoring a policy Of wage in
creases and reduction Of hours in pro-
portion to the individuals increasing
power of production,
A resolution adopted yesterday
unanimously asks wage earners-eyery-
where to oppose wage reductions and
to urge upon gmanagements the elm
'ination of waste in production in or
der that selling prices may be lower
and wages higher.
The convention favored non-partisan
support from congressional candidates
favorable to trade unionism.
A committee reporting on this sub
ject said that the "newest reactionary
campaign plans to overthrow the AM
erican form of government and re-
place it by a supreme executive" It
declared that proponents Of move
ment against the power Of Congress
would like to set up another Mussolini

The wave of prosperity, which is
general all over the country among the
farmers, has descended upon the Balm

result that the plant is now. engaged
in manufacture on a much larger scale
than at any time for the past five
years.
Wagon manufacture to sfillSiorders
coming in from the south and south
west are causing the operation Of the
plant att two thirds it's normal capa-
city days, and. some departments are
operating an extra shift nights to rush
prediction to meet the daily output.
Notable in. this respect isssst the wagon
box departments where a full force of
workmen is busy day and night.
The chief, demand at present is COM
ing from Mississippi, Alabama, Louis

west. The new life taken on by the
business. say officials, is not due. to
any large order, but TO steady orders
which began about three weeks ago

crop production and the return to pros

THRILLING ESCAPES
IN FINAL AIR RACES
Broken Plane Lands Safely Para
chute Man Saved in Perilous
Leap.

Mitchell Field - NJ. Thrilled
by remarkable escapes from death
spectators, who save the concluding
program Of the national air races, are
convinced that either the number 1S
is lucky or that aviation is getting
safer,
After 10 planes had taken the air
on the thirteenth day of October, Cap
tain Earl E. w. Duncan amazed his
fellow airmen by making safe land
ing with the left half of his landing
gear gone.
Airmen on the ground thought it
was impossible for the plane to land
safely, so ambulances were rushed to
the spot where the crash was expected
and spectators waited breathlessly.
The gear was ripped away when the
plane, caught in the propeller wash
of rival racer, sank so low it struck
a telephone pole. Captain Duncan had
his one passenger, Eergeane William
b. Morehead, shipt the one ton load,
carried in accordance with the rules
of this race, to the extreme rear of the
fuselage. Then the plane TAXED down
and moved along on one wheel until
the left wing crunched against the
ground, swung the machine in a semi
circle. The plane then halted without
nosing over. Captain Duncan and
his passenger were uninjured and the
plane only slightly damaged.
As Private Carl Gunther jumped
with double parachute from Lieuten-
ant Walter G.. Whites de-Haviland at
5000 feet, his breast parachute pack
caught IN the control wires of the
plane, failed to open and left him sus-
pended in mid-air. He was climbing
up the parachute rope hand over hand
when a buckle broke, and he dropped
500 feet. The large second ps rachute
at first failed to function, but he pull
ed the release cord and the parachute
opened, carrying him safely to the
ground.
From Washington came word that
one of a score of army planes that
flew from Mitchell field to Washing
ton, caught fire in the air, but de-
scended and turned over at Boiling
field, without injuring its occupant,
Lieutenant E. E. Merideth at Selfridge
field, Michigan. He rescued a hawk,
his squadron mascot, from the plane.

CAR THIEF Is
CHECK FORGER
Police Are Looking for
Leo Cohen Who Aban-
doned Car.
TRAIL OF BAD CHECKS

Leo Cohen is wanted by the police,
but as the only address he ever gave
in Kenosha is that of residence
occupied only by moles and other
small ground-folk, the police are hay
ing hard time tracing him. The
man gave the name Of "Leo Cohen"
and that of course like the address
he gave IS probably fictitious one,
The address he gave was that Of a
vacant lot on Elm street.
Today the police are interested in
locating Cohen for divers reasons.
For one thing Cohen has left trail
of worthless checks, and for another
he is wanted on the charge Of obtain.
ing AGAR under false pretenses.
j Gas Station Complains.
Cohen is charged with passing a
worthless check upon George Galios Of
the gas station at the intersection Of
Prairie and Rowland avenues. This
check was for the sum of $1S, made
payable to the order of Leo Cohen,
signed Edward Zimmerman" and en-
dorsed LEO Cohen" Il was made
payable at the United States bank of
Kenosha, where it was soon found that
the paper was worthless.
rThe. Standard Oil station man at the
corner Of Ridge street and Grand
avenue found also that the check he
held which he had received for cash
was not worth the equivalent of an
oid-time German mark. It's only use
was fer "evidence" at some future
date in court, and as such he turned
it in to the police. This check also
was made payable to Leo Cohen,
signed by Edward Zimmerman" and
endorsed Leo Cohen. 1t was for $40.
stores Complain Also.
A. Crystal, who has a dry goods
store at the corner Of Rowland avenue
and Pearl street, had a similar SOU
venir as the result of call made upon
him by the Leo Cohen Of the vacant
lot on Elm street. His check was
like the two others, and was for the
sum of 318.
A previous complaint about the man
had been made by Clyde Ellis Of the
Rent-a-Csr company. The man who
gave the name of Leo Cohen, rented
Ford coupe of him but failed to re-
turn it.. The car was. found aban-
.doned day later on Charles street.
The stranger is described as ~ or %
years Of age, in height feet ?, weigh
ing about 1876 pounds, slim and dark.

Wisconsin may expect little relief

at Madison, W. H. Afford, yice-presi-
dent and comptroller of the Nash Mo-
tors company, told conference of the
Milwaukee Purchasing Agents associa-

ming. The organization had spent the
afternoon in Kenosha on tour of in
spection of the Nash Motors company
plant here and held their October
meeting following a banquet here.

third Of the normal voting population

other two-thirds idly, sits by allows
government by the minority, according
to Alford@
This bunk, demagogery, this form
of politics is being constantly thrown
out to the people for the purpose of
getting votes. So long as the sensible
people of the state sit around and let
that rot seep into the consciences of
those who are willing to follow so
blindly-just that long will this state
suffer from the evils for which it has
right to complain at the present time
The speaker went on to compare the
federal taxation system with that of
the state. He pointed out how the Mel
lon plan, and the plan advocated by
President Coolidge, is in reality lift
ing the burden off the backs. of the
average wage Garner and placing it up
on the shoulders of those with larger
incomes who are more able to stand a
higher tax assessment.
"The last legislature" he went on,

this by charging the navy was being

that ''the Daniels cabinet and its

Low morale" was ascribed by the

Boomerang for Kenosha.

The remission of the state taxes
will act as a boomerang for the city
of Kenosha, according to Director of
Finance H. C. Laughlin, who revealed
this morning that while it meant a
remission of $4,000, based on last
year, it also meant that the state
would come in and take much more
than that amount out of the income
taxes which would have come to
the city of Kenosha under the old
tax apportionment.
"Of course the city of Kenosha may
be glad that it does not have to pay
the $4,000 state tax in addition to the
heavy burden which is placed on il"
said Mr.. Laughlin, "but study of
the situation will reveal that the re-
mission of the state tax should bring
no general rejoicing in Kenosha."
Director Laughlin stated that there
were so many changes in the tax law
and SO many angles to consider that
it was impossible to give accurate
figures regarding what the loss to
Kenosha would be. He said a con-
sentative estimate would place it at
100000 which would leave the city
still short after. the remission of the
$4,000 state taxes.
Lose on Personal Property.
There is another angle which will
bring loss to the city, according to
:
