RACES ATTRACT
RICH BOSTON
YOUTH
Harold Spooner, Millionaire,
Entered in Contest on
Local Speedway

The alluring call Of the roaring
track has been heard by another
scion of an old wealthy family. This
time 1t is Harold Spooner, twenty.
three.year-old youngster from Bos.
ton, Mass, who will be among the
score of speed demons to be seen
next week on the new motor race
track near Laurel.
Accustomed to having his own car
Spooner early developed great IN
terest in automotive mechanics and,
with ample means to further de-
velop this interest, there came the
ambition to compete with tho world s
greatest drivers. Months of practice
with powerful and speedy cars, a
careful study of driving style, and
lthe budding dream blossomed into
practice.
An indianapolis, on Memorial Day
Of this year, young Spooner became
sold on the idea of adopting race
driving as a profession. Shortly
after this classic a deal was con-
summated with August Duesenberg,
elder of the Duesenberg brothers,
whereby the Boston hopeful became
the proud possessor of a $4,000
racing car.
AS the controlling stakeholder OF
the Boston Electric Heating Cor
poration, a MILAN dollar enterprise.
Spooner will, naturally, have to
devote no little time to this interest.
Both his parents are deceased. 1t
was his father, builder of the pres
ent large manufacturing concern,
who helped the son further his driv-
ing aspirations.
Spooner has registered with the
A. A. A. as driver No. 81, and viii

BUILD OWN HOMES
If They Would Solve High
Rent Problem, Federal
Employees Told

Washington. - Government en-
ployes must solve the high rent prob.
lem by building homes, with the aic
of proper financial agency, said for
mer Senator Ball, of Delaware, 8
member of the District of Columbia
rent commission. While opposed tc
government aid, Mr.. Ball said private
capital could be secured to build
these apartments and houses in al
parts of the city.
He pointed out that there are near
ly $4,000 government employees re,
ceiving less than $2,100 year, and
that more than $4,000 of these en-
ployes receive less than $1,000.
These people, he said, can not afford
to pay high rent.
Mr.. Ball does not accept the theory
that "high wages" is responsible for
exorbitant rents "The cost of build
ing in Washington, or rather the
prices asked for buildings recently
constructed, are unreasonably high,
he said. "There is too great spread
between what should be q fair cost
of that building and the selling price,
and all rentals in the city are fixed

THE REASON

In giving the account of the action
of city council increasing the wages
of city employees, one of the daily
papers said the officials gave no rea-
son for granting the increases. 1t
seems to the Press about all the rea-
son necessary can be found in the
sum paid the men before the increases
were made-64& cents per hour
that should be reason enough for any
one increasing wages. On 64A cents
per hour man can't see much of
"Own your own home" "Be thrifty
and save for the rainy day." etc. Nor
does he pile up many stocks or bonds.
The reason is plain.

REPRESENTATIVES
OF Hamilton Furnace Co
Meet With Trades C0un-
Gil Executive Board

A meeting of the executive board
of the COOPERATIVE Trades and Labor
Council was called into session Tues
day night by President Jack Scheaf.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of hearing the representatives of
the Hamilton Furnace Company ex-
plain their proposition to furnish the
city with artificial gas. John A.
Savage, president of the Hamilton
Furnace Co., stated to the board that
an open meeting will be held with
the city council on May 9th to pre-
sent their proposition. Mr.. Savage
announced that his company WOULD
have three gas experts here to at
tend the meeting to explain the com
pany's proposition in detail, changes
that would be necessary by changing
to artificial gas which the company
would supply.
| He also stated that if his company
secured the contract that they woulc
send men to the homes of the con
sumers to make the necessary changes
without costing one cent. The re
mainder Of his talk pertained to con
j Meeting the lines &C the company t.
the city mains, etc.
The members of the council asked
Mr.. Savage several questions whicl
were answered very satisfactorily.
The members became interested il
the meeting which will be held Wed
nesday, May 9th, when the represen
tatives of his company, including tn
gas experts, will meet with the cit.
council.
A motion was offered and carried
by the officers of the Co-Operativ
/ Trades and Labor Council that tn
secretary be instructed to writ
Mayor Kelly and the president Of tn
city council to hold the open meet
ing in some suitable place, other thai
the city building.
i The labor organizations will in tn
next few days urge their members t
attend this meeting. 1t is very inn
portant and every laborer's famil
should hear about the Hamilton Fur
mace Company's proposition Tn
Central Labor Council will do its bes
to have labor we'll represented at tn
meeting, and if a suitable meeting
place is secured they will not be com
pelled to be on the outside looking II
which always happens to be the cas-
when the meeting is held in the cit
building.
/ The representatives of the Hamil
ton Furnace Company who attende

INJUNCTION TRAP
Evaded By Coal Miners In
West Virginia Court

Wheeling, w. Va.-Federal Judge
Baker has ruled that peaceful per-
suasion of miners to join the union
is not violation of an injunction
issued by the late Federal Judge Day
ton in 1913
Recently Judge Baker continued
this injunction, which applies to the
Ohio river coal fields. The order was
modified by the court of appeals to
permit peaceful persuasion, after its
issuance by Judge Dayton, and the
miners insisted that this modification
was effective.
Attorneys for the coal operators
cited similar injunction granted tc
| the Hitchman Coal Company, in
which the United States supreme
court reversed the court of appeals
and reinstated the 1913 decree. This
decision, they claimed, should alst
apply in the present case.
owe have no doubt" said Judge
Baker, "that had the present case
gone to the supreme court, the de
cision would have been identical will
the Hitchman case. But it did not g
to that court, and the district court
therefore, is bound by the mandate
of the circuit court of appeals"
Judge Baker stated that in the flu
ture, before temporary restraining
order is issued, the defendants will
have the right to answer the com
plant; that the plaintiffs will be re
quired to file bill of particulars am
that the defendants will have tn
right to inspect and answer same.

Now that the people have put

that we get something else besides
excuses and whines from those look

been one long excuse for inaction for

awful lot about economy and no
money in the funds. The taxpayers
have toed the scratch for all that the
administration asked for without a

we now get action on more police, gar
bage collection, cleanup all around,
repaired streets, etc. And unless we
get action, the Press predicts right
now, that someone will think four or

ANOTHER CLOAK FOR
CROOKED BUSINESS
By Chester M. Wright

When three out of five members
of the federal trade commission adopt
ed an order providing secrecy for all
complaints filed hereafter with that
commission, something new came into
being and big business gets another
cloak with which to cover its mis-
deeds
There is to be no publicity unless
complaints lead to formal action
against the accused concerns. And,
if it is found that the defendant con-
Germs are practicing deceit or using
unfair methods, the defendants may
agree to reform and there will be
no publicity.
Thus every crooked business con-
Germ in the country, SO far as the
federal trade commission is concerned,
can escape publicity if, upon convic-
ton, it will merely agree to be good
thereafter!
This seems to be going the limit
to protect the culpable
In court procedure a complaint is
public property. 1t doesn't matter
/ how innocent the accused may be-
When complaint is filed, or charge
sworn to, the public has access to
the whole story.
And every subsequent step is open
to publicity. Newspapers may get
and publish every action and every
word of testimony.
But the federal trade commission
is doing away with all this open pro-
ceeding 1t is making out of itself a
secret tribunal 1t is subjecting
itself, moreover, to every charge that
may be levelled at secret tribunal.
/, How is the public to know whether
the federal trade commission, working
secretly, is working justly? How
shall the public know that the federal
trade commission is not shielding
crooks, or shielding friends, or shield
ing certain groups? The public will
not know anything and consequently
it may, and perhaps will, suspect
anything.
The minority members of the COM
mission are silenced by this new de.
cree. They may not criticize, as in
the famous Pittsburgh plus case, the
decisions of the majority. Secrecy
under the new order, is absolute. The
federal trade commission, in camera
is something new in America. 1t is
something the American people, low.
ing justice and open dealing, ought
to jump on with both feet, vigor-
ously, and with determination to let
the light back in where it belongs.
