lS5,OOO CARLOADS OF STOCK HANDLED
 BY FARMER CO-OPS
Save Quarter of Commission Rates and Eliminate Costly Abuses
 at Terminal Points.

Chicago, March 14.-The question of whether cooperative marketing by farm CTS organization can be made a suc- cess is answered in the affirmative by the accomplishments of the cooperative live stock commission association oper- atlng principally in the Chicago stock yards, with branches in other large live stock centers.
 These marketing organization during 1924 disposed of approximately 185,OOO carloads of cattle, sheep and hogs, for price in round numbers of $250,OOO,OO with terminal savings to the farmers of nearly $1,0OO,OO0, or approximately g per cent of the old commission rates.
 Methods under which these cooper tive marketing organizations operate do not differ greatly from those of other commission houses. They make an av- craze charge of $20 per car for stock consigned to them. They then proceed to negotiate for the best prices obtain able from the packers and other buyers, after which the money is remitted to the shipper, and once each year the sav- ings in commissions after expenses are divided among members of the organi- zation, averaging between 20 and 25 per cent since the inception of this policy
 But 1t Is in the correction of many of the terminal abuses where these coop erative commission houses have done their best work. Prior to their entry into the field, the individual shipper or the local live stock shippers associa- ton were entirely at the mercy of the speculators and mauipulstors who in Tested the markets. ppers were charged large amounts hnd, which never reached the stock tpission houecc- were in league with lators, and car load lots were unloaded to these spectators at prices considerably below the market They were then resoId and the gain from this transaction was split between the speculator and the commission house. There were pumer- ous practices in effect of this kind all of which were designed to mulct the farmers.

UNION LABOR
 HELPS IN GETTING VOCATIONAL SCHOOL
Fl Paso Unions Largely Instrumental in Bringing About Its
 Construction.

By International Labor News Service.
 Fl Paso, Texas, Mar. 14-Construc- tion by union contractors of $13O,OOO vocational school building will be started soon in this city. The building will contain classrooms for vocational work, administrative offices and a large auditorium with seating capac- ity of 700. The construction is to be freproof throughout.
 Construction of new school was brought about largely through the Bonds were voted for the construction of vocational school. The proposal was then made that some old building be purchased and remodeled to fit the needs of the school. To this the unionists objected. For as a commit tee from the Central Labor Union said ::
 Had it been generally known that a building or buildings were to be purchased that had not been built for the express purpose of a vocational training school, the bonds would not have carried. The taxpayers would not want a makeshift building for such purposes"
 The committee further petitioned that the site for the school be acces- sib1e from all parts of the city.
 The school board gave, these sug gestions due consideration and now Fl Paso is to have a vocational training fhat 1t will be proud of, ideally located, &14eough the efforts of union labor.

FORCED PORTO
 RicAN EMIGRATION
 WOULD INFECT us.

Was1liaBts1, March 14.-The admin istration's solution for the appalling social and economic conditions nj Por- to Rico is to apparently create another social problem in the United States by importing 100000 Porto Rican families into the southern cotton plantations, turpentine fields and lumber camps. Porto Ricans are now paid from 40 to 30 cents a day.
 Santiago Iglesias, senator i'll the of the Free Federation of Workingmen of Porto Rico, refers to the new "so- lution" in a memorandum to President Green of the A. F. of I. The Porto Rican trade unionist states that Secre- tary of War Weeks is opposed to any investigation of the charges by Porto Rican organized workers that labor III the island is treated shamefully; that the island Is a victim of the most vici ous brand of absentee 1andlordism, and that these exp1oiters practiced fraud and violence at the last island elections.
 "For the solution of the Porto Rican problem" Senator Iglesias said, Gen eral Mcintyre, chief of the bureau of insu1ar affairs of the war department, is stimulating the emigration of 100000 families. Carlos E. Chardon, Porto Ri can commissioner of agriculture and labor of the island, has asked that leg islature to approve plan for the emi- grafton of 100000 families to the south ern section of the United States to work in the cotton, turpentine and lumber industries"

FEDERAL PENSION
 LAW ELIBERALIZED
Congress Increases Retirement Law
 From $72O to $1 200.

Washington, March Congress has increased maximum annual payments under the federal retirement law from $720 to $1,200. Other payments are increased proportionately.
 The optional age at which certain government employmes may retire is changed from 65 years to @ years. This applies to the postal group and mechanics. Formerly these workers could retire at 65 years. Now they may retire at 62 years.
 The new law increases the workers contribution to the fund from 21a per cent. to 31A per cent. of their wages.
 The retirement law has been in op- eration since August, 1920, and has confounded every opponent by its un- qualified success. Today the fund to- tals more than $4O,OOO,O0O, without any contribution by the government, as provided by law.
 One feature of the law is that the government shall deduct the required percentage from each employees wage. This "check-cf' has been overlooked by editors and business men who de- nounce the United Mine Workers of America for insisting on the same practice in unionized coal fields.

ELECTRIC POWER TO MARK PROGRESS OF
 AMERICAN FARMER
Discussed By Delegates From Many States at Conference in
 Washington.

Washington, March l4.-Effect of motor and electric power on the farm ing industry and wage earners was discussed at a conference last week in the National Hotel, this city, under auspices of the Farmers National Council. Delegates were present from nine states, and the speakers included Secretary Gore of the Department of Agriculture, and number of experts. H. F. Baker of Michigan, president of the council, presided.
 Secretary Gore told the delegates of his interest in their efforts to IT ake the adjustments involved in the larger use of motor power, while Secretary of La bor Davis, who was unable to be pres ent, wrote a letter i'll which he said that 1t Is vital to all concerned that any change which may be necessary shoudl be made without prejudice to the American labor standard
 There is no danger of motor power depopulating the agricultural regions, according ot views expressed by Dr. L. (. Gray, chief of the Division of Land Economlcs in the U. $. Department ot ,who discussed the utiliza- ton of land and man power.

CHICAGO'S WHITE
 WINGS WIN AFTER
 ELEVEN-DAY STRIKE
Increases Range From Is Cents to 60 Cents a Day, and Include
 All Classes.
By JOSEPH A. WISE Staff Corresondent, International Labor News Service.

Chicago, March 14-Chicagos white wings 2,550 strong, reached a satis- factory wage settlement with the city authorities after strike lasting II days. The settlement came as a direct result of an investigation started by International Labor News Service. The men were given this help because they hold federal labor union charter from the American Federation of Labor
 The wage increases affect laborers on repairs, dump foremen, section fore men, street cleaners and street repair forenen, the increases ranging from Is cents a day for laborers on repairs and street cleaners to GO cents a day for street repair foremen. This was con- siderably better than a 5O-5O split of the demands made.
 The situation had assumed a threat ening aspect when International Labor News Service took a hand ill the mat ter. Colonel A. A. Sprague, commis- sioner of public works, had ordered the men back to work on pain of dismissal from the service and had indicated that he intended to operate the street clean ing department with strikebreakers. Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins said that the police were ready for any emergency" and threats to jail the leaders of the strikers were made.
 Running true to form, Colonel Rob- ert R. Mccormick, editor-in-chief of the Chicago Tribune, and Victor F. Lawson, publisher of the Chicago Daily News, ordered their forces into action against the strikers, and their two papers began printing lurid tales that predicted bloodshed and disaster These two newspaper publishers did everything possible to infame the public mind against the strikers, and did not hesitate ot print the most bare faced lines concerning the situation.
 International Labor News Service began all investigation at moment when the situation looked critical and

CIVIL SERVICE BILL TO BE GIVEN HEARING
 FRIDAY, MARCH 20
Measure Entitled "An Act Establishing the Merit System in the State
 Civil Service"

Among the many imortant measures to be heard before the Judiciary Com mittee of the Connecticut Legislature is one concerning the selection and pro- motion of employees in the routine ser vice of the state government.
 The bill is entitled "An Act Estab- fishing the Merit System in the State Civil Service" and is House Bill 639 The bill was introduced by Represen- tative Brinsmade of Washington, and is sponsored by the Connecticut Civil Service Association.
 Due to a recent increase of interest on the part of Connecticut citizens in the subject of the Merit System, a large and representative gathering is expected to appear Tn support of the measure The bill will be heard before the Judiciary Committee in the Old Senate Chamber, State Capitol, on Friday, March 20, at 1 80 p. m.
 The following digest of the bill was prepared by the Connecticut Civil Ser vice Association:
 The bill provides for civil service commission of three members having overlapping terms; not more than two members shall be of the same political party.
 The civil employees of the state fall into three classifcations according to thir duties:
 The Unclassihed Service consists of officials who have authority to initiate public policies whether such officials are elected or appointed, and, at the other end of the scale, unskilled or common laborers employed and paid as such. The latter group is unclassifed because no comparative rating of the capacities of such candidates can read-i lily be made.

LABOR INJUNCTION
 LSLYNCHLAW
Bv VICTOR A. OLANDER Secretary Treasurer, Illinois State
 Federation of Labor.

The injunction, as ordinarily issued against working people during strikes and 1ockouts is, in effect, new sort of lynch law which ignores the consti- tuition and is without sanction of either statute or common law.
 It is a significant fact that the in junction as issued i'll labor disputes is always directed against the working people on strike and never against the employer. That indicates quite plainly that it is an instrument designed to maintain the interests of one class of citizens against the interests of anoth- CT class of citizens and is thus foreign to the purposes and intent of both the state and federal constitutions.
 The injunction denies to the defend ant working man on strike practically every safeguard provided for in the bill of rights. This unfair practice must either be wiped out by the enactment of laws prohibiting such misuse of power on the part of the judges or the practice will spread so that in time all classes of citizens will be affected. That, of course, would mean a practi- cal notification of the constitution-an unthinkab1e condition.
 Yet it is the direction in which we are heading.

WEST CANADA OBJECTS TO ALIEN
 TIDAL WAVE

Vancouver, British Columbia, March l4-The Canadian Pacific Railway Company Is flooding the Canadian west coast with immigrants. Agents of this corporation are in European coun- tries and are spreading their story of vast fields of uncultivated lands that await willing hands.
 The immigrants are shipped on C. F. R. vessels and landed at all points along that system. Ten thousand men are scheduled to arrive from Sweden ill the near future.
 Large numbers of immigrants re- gently arrived ill this city and re- mained in the immigration buildings until the C. P. R. found them work. That was one obligation which the railroad .kept-even though it means small wages or busting workers they had previously found work for.
 City hall politicians may wall about men coming from the prairies to win ter in Vancouver, but they never whim- per about trainloads brought in from Europe by the C. P. R." says the La bor Statesman, owned by the local central trade union.
 True, the resources of this country are vast, and plenty of land is avail able for cultivation" says the labor paper, but the big drawback, the fac tor that is driving men off the land and making it almost impossible for those who stay on it to live, is the cost of production
 Machinery prices are sky high Ev- cry accessory that the farmer needs i'll the production of food products costs an exorbitant price. His taxes mount higher, and recent surveys show that there is an ever increasing number leaving the farms.
 The fact of the matter is that there are a great many changes needed III our social system before this country can properly care for the thousands ot that are headed this way by the C. F. R."
