BUILDING TRADE
COUNCIL FIGHTS
The open SHOP
Scabherding Citizens
Committee" Attacked

Tho building trades council Of Chi
cage met last night to duscuss the
fight Inaugurated by the Chicago
building trades unions against the
open shop. A statement Issued by
Patrick Sullivan, president Of the
building trades council shows that
while the council officials have no
Intention Of formally declaring a gen.
eraI strike against the Infamous Lam
dis award agreement, which lie syn
onymous with the "open shop" the
statement means that strikes will be
called on all new Jobs let from the
date Of the statement on which non
union men are employed with union
workers.
II this threat is carried out, q war
on the open shop" will be waged by
the building trades union.
Sullivan charges that the building
contractors have violated their Ian.
dis award agreements not to form an
alliance with the Citizens Commit
tee to enforce the Lands Award" OF
course, this committee has been from
the first an agency Of the contrac-
tors to feed non-union workers to
them under protection of the Lands
award.
The building trades council takes
the position that this alliance is in
violation Of the Lands award, and
will be fought in the future by
strikes. The statement Of the coun-
ell declares, "If outside influences
continue to prevail in the building in
dustry, or If contracts are let for con-
struction work in Cook county to un-
fair contractors, the affiliated trades
will exercise the right reserved to
them and will quit work on every job
where agreements are being violat-
ed"
Meanwhile Federal Judge Page,
"arbiter" in the structural iron work
ers' dispute, is expected to give a
decision. The iron workers union
charges that contractors violated the
agreement by employing nonunfon
workers. Page is expected by many
Of the iron workers to rule against
their union in an effort to stem the
struggle of the workers against the
open shop.
The "Citizens Committee" an
nounced that it will continue to fur.
nish nonunion workers to the con
tractors.
Three hundred Chicago plasteres
are still of their Jobs. They were
called out by their international Of
ficers in a national jurisdictional dis.
pute between the bricklayers' and

BORAH REPORTED
PUSHING SOVIET
RECOGNITION
Goes to New York on
Hunt for Facts

WASHINGTON, June 12.-senatqr
Borah Of Idaho, went to New York
Tuesday to confer with authorities on
he Russian situation.
Among others, he will discuss the
question with Raymond Robbins, who.
was sent to Russia by Woodrow VIII
SON with instructions to make a thoro
investigation of conditions under the
Soviet regime and to make an un-
biased report.
But when Robbins returned and
made his report, he was subjected TO
fire to adverse criticism, as his con-
illusions were considered too friendly
to the Soviets.
Because Of his intense interest In
the Soviet republic, Borah is anxious
to get from Robbins his impressions
concerning recent developments In
Russia.
Borah is laying the foundation for
another drive for recognition OF Rus
sia by this government. He is con-
WINGED that such move would prove
Of incalculable trade advantage to tho
United States.

CANTON, China, June 12.-Forelgn
steamers were fired upon today as
they moved within the fighting lines
established by rival military leaders
who continued battling for Canton,
which 10 now held by the defending
Yunnanese army. One Chinese stew
ard on the steamer Salon was wound
cd severely today when he was struck
while aboard the craft.
While the gunfre continued from
both sides today after a night of con-
tinuous shooting, neither army gained
ground. The defending forces were
anxious to attack Honam, but the pro-
ject could not be promoted owing to
lack Of vessels, all OF which are held
by enemy forces.
Steamers were proceeding to Hong
kong today crowded with refugees.
The movement Of exports and imports
is practically halted as result of the
disturbance. silk shipments, how
ever, are moving under protection.
Observers today reported that addi-
tional forces would be necessary for
a decisive battle. If the forces of
Gen. Heu Chung-chi, who was reprot-
ed nearing Canton, arrive in time and
join with the forces Of Chu Pei-tak in
assisting the attack forces, the de-
tenders may be driven out of Canton.
Otherwise the Yunnanese will contin-
ue to hold the city.

PatrIotlsm--As Usual
When the arguments olosed-and
those Of the prosecutor cid not zeal
with the issues of the case but was
solely a flag-waving patriotic TRADE
usual to proseoutors-th defense
counsel moved for an instructed YER
dict In favor OF Connors, on the
ground that Arnold, the complaining
witness, had failed to identify a copy
Of the leaflet upon which the whole
charge Of the prosecution was based.
Busiok promptly denied the motion.
The reversal of Connors previous
conviction on the same charge was
based mainly on the grounds that
Busick had instructed the Jury to find
him guilty of crime not charged in
the indictment. Busick avoided this
partly this time. When reading of
the few passages containing mater
that the Jury might take as favorable
to Connors, Busick spoke in a dead
monotone, but when he came to tne
parts which told the Jury to find the
defendant guilty" he read slowly and
impressively. The words-Find the
defendant guilty" = were repeated
many times and uttered with JUNCTION
and gusto.

The jury returned the verdict of
guilty in three hours, Busick imme-
diately sentenced Connors to the
maximum limit of the law. Notice OF
appeal and motion for the court to
set bail pending appeal was denied
all in one breath-and Connors rush
ed of to San Quentin penitentiary. At
the opening Of the trial the. defense
moved for change Of venue, present
ing three afidavits Of Busick's pre-
JUDGE. Busick denied the motion.

Small Forces His
Election Bills to

SPRINGFIELD. Ill. June 12.-Gov.
Small completed a political "log-
rolling" deal in the house, forcing
the representatives in favor Of the
Mccluggage sanitary district" bill to
support his bills requiring the rota-
ton of Cook county candidates on
election ballots, by threading to veto
the McCluggage bill.
Speaker Scholes announced that he
would ask for a roll call on Small's
bills next Tuesday. The election bills
which are being forced thru by Small
subject circuit and superior court
judges to election primaries, and all

with scarcely the forms of law,
altho Busick managed to evade
some Of the errors which voided
the first trials.
Tried For Doing Defense Work
Bear In mind, firstly, that Connors
was being tried on q charge OF ''in-
f1uencing q Juror" because, as a
means Of conducting defense for
other workers, he had-as all defense
workers do--oiroulated printed matter
explaining the issues of the case to
great Lists of people. Among the re-
oipients Of such circular matter, it
appears was a venireman. Connors
had never seen him, never talked with
him.
But the crowning point Of the pres
snt judicial farce, and one which
should burn Its lesson into the minds
Of every worker, especially every I.
W. W., that the present government
is a capitalist Dictatorship and that
its democracy" is a fraud-was the
conduct Of Judge Busick on the bench.
Buslok In Dual Role
Judge Busick. without any suggest
ion or invitation from counsel. an
nornced that he would be sworn as
q witness for the prosecution. All OBJ
jections and motions were overruled.
Judge Busick-without leaving the
bench-was sworn as a witness. He
testified, overruled objections 20 his
own testimony, and supplied the mis-
sing link that the prosecuting attor-
ney lacked. Then he went on with
the case.
This came at time when the dis
trict attorney and his assistant were
hopelessly laundering in an attempt
to show that a certain witness had
delivered to the court and envelope
received by this witness. Incidentally,
the envelope was shown to have been
mailed after Connors was arrested

LABOR CONDITIONS.
Low Wages, High Taxes
and Weak Unions

WASHINGTON, D. c., June H.
The labor department Of the United
States has given out its findings on a
survey of the industrial conditions in
Germany. In the section given to the
standard of living Of German workers
the survey says:
Low Standard Of Living.
"The general standard of living
among workers after the war was
very low. Food, fuel and clothes were
very scarce at first, and when imports
began after the blockade ceased the
low level OF real wages prevented
much Improvement.
Rents In general have been low
because the government rent restric-
ton. The working class, however,
did not actually profit by the low
rents, as in fixing wages the employer
took into account such low rents.
Robbed In Every Way.
"The working class paid more in
taxes in proportion TO their income
than the wealthy class, contributing
in 1928 and 1924 between As and 95
per cent OF the income tax as taxes
on their wages were levied before the
workers received them, thereby de-
priving the workers of the advantage
Of the depreciation of the currency
which other taxpayers had.
While nominal wages increased
rapidly, real wages were much lower
than before the war; The wages OF
bricklayers, for example. which be-
fore the war had been as per cent
higher than the minimum cost OF sub
Sistenoe. were lower than the mini

MORMON SOLON
GETS OUT SHEARS
FOR TAX SHAVE
More Relief Promise for
Big Fellows

WASHINGTON, June 12.-With the
arrival here of Senator Reed Smooth
of Utah, chairman of the senate
finance committee, for conferences
with Secretary of the Treasury Mel
Ion and other officials, the admins
tration's tax revision program, to be
submitted to the next congress, has
begun to take definite form.
Smoot probably will remain here
for several weeks, not only to work
on the tax problem, but to act with
the American debt funding commits
sion, of which he is a member, in
forthcoming negotiations with Belgi-
UNI and other nations which may un-
dertake funding operations.
AS to revenue legislation in con-
gress this winter, Smoot agrees with
President Coolidge and Secretary Mel
Ion that the revenue act of 1924 is
unsatisfactory in many respects and
that countrywide demand is devel-
oping for tax revision or "tax reform"
as the president describes 1t.
This would include the elimination
of the discriminatory taxes" which
are now said to demand too great
a tribute from the larger incomes.
Reduction Of surtaxes will be propos-
ed along with more liberal exemptions
for small incomes, altho the last tax
law provided for greater reductions
in the latter class than those origin
ally proposedin the Mellon PLAN"

Toys with Military Suggestion Returning
 to Favor In Europe

LONDON, May 13.-P)-Medieval knights in shining armor have talk en the place of the little tin soldiers which were popular. here prior to 1914. After the war, toy soldiers all but disappeared from the shops, not only in England, but in many coun- tries on the continent, particularly Germany and Austria. and in their stead came little farmer boys and other leaded figures of agriculture.
 Models of cows and horses, ducks and chickens and farm houses to scale have been displayed quite gen. orally. Hunting scenes, with the huntsmen in bright colors on horses, foxes, hedges, ditches and other sug- gestions of the country have also been on display this spring on a larger scale than heretofore, but the demand of the public for the knights suggestive of the trouble some days of the twelfth .centure indicate, say the toy dealers, that war playthings are again coming in to favor. @
