SHIPS NOT MANNED AT NIGHT;
SAFETY-AT-SEA LAW IGNORED

Washington, d. C.-The United
States supreme court has ruled that
section 2 of the seamens' law is legal,
but the law continues to be violated
by the department of commerce, the
United States shipping board and
private vessel owners.
The purpose Of this section is to
protect life at sea by providing that
merchant vessels shall divide sailors
into at least two watches, and fire
men, oilers and water tenders into at
least three watches, and that these
shall be kept on duty successfully for
the performance of ordinary work in
cident to the sailing and management
of the vessel"
The law was intended to end the
practice of vessels being operated at
night with a lookout and no men on
deck for an emergency. This endan-
gers life, but not property, as vessel
owners carry insurance. Their oper-
ating costs are reduced, as the plan
calls for less men, who can sleep
nights and labor in the day time.
AS an additional safeguard to the
travelling public and crews, the act
further provides that where the mas
ter of a vessel violates this section,

Tricky Amendment Is Blocked;
Would Make Organic Act Rigid

end Congressman Garrett of Ten
nessee the child labor amendment
would be considered defeated, as it
has been rejected by the legislatures
of more than one-fourth of the states.
Opponents of the Wadsworth-G Garrett
bill issued this statement:
"We believe in the wisdom, the
sagacity, the prudence and the fore
sight of the makers of the Constitu-
ton, and we believe that these states
men, being men of vision, anticipated
the possibly inadequacy of this in
strument through all generations,
and provided the needed elasticity by
good and sufficient rules for it's
amendment.
"We are opposed to the Wadsworth-
Garrett amendment on the grounds
that it is undemocratic, contrary to
the principles of our government, and
that it forms an almost impossible
barrier to future amendments to the
Constitution.
"It gives to 13 states not only a
veto power over all other states, but
the minority of 13 states would be
able to prevent even consideration by
other states"
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1926-03-12

Washington, D. C.-Organized
labor and several organizations
of women voters blocked a
scheme to slip the Wadsworth-
Garrett constitutional amend
ment through the house. There
has been no public discussion of
the plan, which is one of the
most far-reaching proposals ever
submitted to congress. The
house judiciary committee
agreed to hold hearings on the
measure.
If the bill were enacted it would
permit 13 states-one-fourth de-
feat a constitutional amendment and
would prohibit a state legislature
from reversing its position, once a
vote was recorded on any amend
ment.
At the present time the fight for a
constitutional amendment is continu-
Gus, as is instanced by the child labor
amendment. Under the plan favored

A HELPING HAND
Will Finance Small Homes For Trade
UniOnistS

Chicago, Ill.-The Building Trades
Council of this city has organized the
Illinois Federation Corporation to
build homes for organized workers.
Officers of the corporation will be ac-
tive members of trade unions.
The corporation will start business
with a capital stock valued at $780,
900. This will be increased to $10,-
100000. 1t is planned at first to fl
nance the building of small homes.
Later money will be loaned on large
construction projects. In all cases
building work must be done by union
labor.
Interest rates on loans will be 6
per cent. plus a small commission, the
whole rate being from 2 to per cent.
lower than rates of banking institu-
tions. Loans will be made on two
thirds of the total valuation of the
building. Banks loan on one-half of
tle valuation, thus forcing the other
so per cent. TO carry a second mort
gage at exorbitant rates.
Loan payments may be made in full
with subscription or in partial pay
ments as low as $3.50 per unit per
month

seamen are entitled to discharge and
to receive wages earned.
Two members of the International
Seamen's union, assisted by the un-
ion, sought to enforce the law by that
method. They sued for their wages
but a California district court ignol
ed the safety purpose of the law and
held they were deserters and forfeit
ed their wages. A federal court of
appeals upheld this decision, which
was reversed by the United States su-
preme court on January last.
The decision has been called to the
attention of private vessel owners, to
the shipping board-because vessels
under its jurisdiction are operated
just as are private-owned vessels
and to bureaus of the department of
commerce that are supposed to en-
force maritime law.
No notice has been taken of the de-
cision. These vessels are operated in
che same unsafe way. When seamen
insist upon the laws observance, they
are refused employment. Some one
less law-abiding is employed and the
vessel proceeds to sea.
Senator La Toilette has introduced
bill to compel ship operators and
government officials to obey the law.

Control of Dry Appointments Is

Washington, d. C.-Recom
mendation has been made by til
house civil service commissid
that all prohibition enforcers
selected through civil service el
aminations and it is though
such a law will be passed. B
there are many who assert Il
move is made too late.
While the Anti-Saloon league Cd
trolled appointments of enforcers
opposed civil service, and filled t.
Jobs with the ragtag and bobtail o1
creation. These have brought the po-
sitions into such disrepute that it is
now considered doubtful if any large
proportion of self-respecting men car
be induced to accept positions, even
though they are approved by a civil
service board.
The feeling is spreading through
out the country that none but snitche.

who has regard for his reputation

Bricklayers Pay
Good Benefits
to Old Members
Large Surplus in Relief Depart
ment-Plan in Operation
Since 1914

Washington, D. C.-Secretary
John J. Gleason of the Bricklay-
ers, Masons and Plasterers' In
ternational Union, with head
quarters in Washington, for the
first time has made public the
operation of the benefit system
of that organization adopted in
1914.
There are now 2,776 men and wom-
en- drawing benefits through the re-
lief department of the union. Of
these 676 are widows, 2,013 are men,
bers receiving old age pensions.
Each employed member is assessed
70 cents a month for the benefit fund,
and the average weekly payment to
beneficiaries is 81. A member can
retire on a pension at the age of so
years. In addition the union pays a
mortuary benefit ranging from $50 to
$500, according to the length of mem
bership.
At the beginning of the present
year the union had 100000 in the
relief department treasury and $685.
408 in the mortuary fund.
The total amount of all benefit and
mortuary claims paid during the last
fiscal year was $1,149,779.
The union also grants paid-up life
membership cards to all who have
held continuous membership for so
years, and to soldier-members totally
disabled in the World War. Six war
veterans have applied for and received
such cards, three residing in Canada,
two in New York and one in Penn

(By w. L. GRISER)

The writer is prompted to broad
cast some information as to the prog
ress of the building program that has
been in the mind of the more inter-
ested folks of Y. M. c. A. work dur
ing the last few years.
The Elizabeth Fuller property on
West Church street, having a front
age of 100 feet and a depth of 200
feet was purchased by group of in
terested citizens just before the close
Of the calendar year. The search for
a site involved not only size but also
location. Another factor taken in
consideration was that the site should
not already have a very expensive
structure on it. In other words, the
committee was to secure a lot and
not building. Other factors also
under consideration included the prob
lem of drainage. This may not ap-
pear to of any consequence to the
casual observer, but those who have
visited the present Y. M. c. A. build
ing know that the swimming pool is
built below the sewer line and this

NEW Y. M. {. A. BUILDING
Present Outlook and Past Achievements of This
Organization Which Is Fifty Years
Old in July This Year

requires about 5000 gallons of the
water to be pumped up and out into
the sewer. This pumping operation
is not only costly but also unsatis-
factory. All in all the Fuller prop
erty seemed to be the logical site for
new Y. M. G. A. building, and SUBJ
scribers were found who were willing
to back up with their money the
judgment of the site committee.
1t is not planned to put on cam
paign for a new building right away.
No definite time has been set fol-
such a campaign. Originally it had
been thought that 1926 would be a
prosperous year in our community
and ripe time to put the PROPOSE
tion to the people. In July of 1926
the local Y. NJ c. A. will have occa-
sion to celebrate its fiftieth anniver-
sary. One does not usually credit the
Y. M. c. A. with having been on the
job for fifty years in this town. How
ever, fiftieth anniversary might be

$4,000 For Newark

The new city directory just
issued by Polk & Co. contains
$4,000 names occupying nearly
500 pages, from which the pub
fishers estimate the present pop
ulation of Newark at $4,000 an
increase of 1000 over two years
ago.
These figures are arrived at
by multiplying the individual
names by 212 to allow for the

sidered very conservative.

NO INJUNCTION
Judge Stopped Strike in a Thousand
Dress Shops

New York-Acting as voluntary
mediator, Supreme Court Justice
Proskauer averted a strike of 10000
members of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers union. They were
forced on the verge Of a walkout by
their employers disregard for an
agreement.
The new contract provides for the
immediate appointment of an impair
tial chairman to adjust disputes
which can not be settled by direct
negotiation. This is an arrangement
long sought by the union. If both
parties fail to select a chairman, JUS
tice Proskauer will assist.
Prior to the adjustment the man
ufacturers asked Justice Proskauer to
enjoin the workers from striking. In
stead of granting the injunction, the
jurist used his influence for peace.

"a state of absolute tyranny reigns

has been a complete destruction of
freedom of speech and of the press.
The lives of every one are under the
supervision of a vigilante type of gov
ernment.
"Mussolini must be removed. l
don't know how long he can go on,

News Review of
Current Events
Rejection of Nickel Plate Merger
Is Factor in Collapse of
Stock Market
Especial to The LEADER

NTBRGBR of the Nickel Plate,
ASA Chesapeake & Ohio, Hooking
Valley, Pere Marquette and Erie rail
roads as proposed by the Van Swer-
ingen brothers Of Cleveland, was dis
approved last week by the interstate
commerce commission, and those So
called wizards of the railway world
will have to devise a new plan If they
wish to try again to bring about the
giant combination. Their work on
the rejected scheme Is said to have
cost them between two and three mil
lion dollars. If it had gone through,
according to those who opposed it,
the brothers would have pOcketed a
profit Of about $10O,OO0,O00
The commission based its disallow-
ance Of the merger on d disapprOval
of the financial structure Of the pro-
posed new Nickel Plate company, hold
ing that the terms and conditions Of
the proposed acquisition of control by
the new company Of the other COM
panies were unjust and unreasonable.
The commission held that the merger
would be In the public interest from
the standpoint Of providing efficient
transportation, leaving the inference
that it would have been approved had
the financial provisions been above
criticism.
1--WE cannot escape the conclusion
that the plan was arranged with the
(nf oP Enoninu pnnfrn1 In tho
hands Of It's proponents, even though
their interest Is a minority one in
fact" the commission said. Such an
arrangement is not Ia accord with
sound railroad practice The Nickel
Plate Is the only rail- tt1 Of impor
tance In the country in which pre-
ferred stockholders do not have the
right to vote, and now ii Is proposed
to extend this feature to over $155,
