U. Will Build Homes on
Campus For Students.

Minneapolis, July 14-A dor
mitory system providing quiet,
artistic and healthful homes for
out of town students at the Uni
versity of Minnesota with all
buildings, carefully supervised by
university officials, has been APP
proved by the board of regents
on the suggestion of President L.
ID. Coffman who told them at a
recent meeting that adoption of
the plan would be perhaps the
biggest progressive step of the
decade at Minnesota.
The plan under which these
dormitories are to be built, be-
ginning about a year from this
fall, will not cost the state or tax
payers a cent and will not in any
way pledge the credit of the
state, President Coffman said.
The University will endeavor to
sell bonds based on the earning
power of the buildings to be
erected with their proceeds.
Careful inquiry into the earning
power of college dormitories else
where has shown that the Uni
versity could pay the bond in
terest and establish an adequate
sinking fund with which to amor
tie the principal itself. .
Data gathered indicates that
students would pay no more for
the thoroughly first-class, super
vised living quarters to be pro-
vided in the dormitory system
than they now pay for rooms in
private dwellings. The cost of
living in the dormitories will be
considerably under that of living
in a fraternity or sorority house.
Charges are to be set at a figure
no higher than will be necessary
to finance the building program
and provide adequately for main

Murphy Makes Great
Address at Shakopee
(By Farm Bureau News Service.)

|
The greatest address heard in
Minnesota this year upon the
subject of farm legislation un-
doubtedly was that delivered at
Shakopee on July 5 by Frank w.
Murphy of Wheaton, who had
charge of the fight at Washing
ton during the recent session of
Congress.
It was estimated that IL to IA
thousand people were present to
hear Mr.. Murphy, the occasion
being the annual picnic of the
Scott County Farm Bureau, the
diamond Jubilee of Shakopee and
the 15Qth anniversary of Amer
lean independence.
This picnic was the last of a
long series of similar affairs by
the farm bureau in different
counties since early in June, and
1t was the greatest of them all.
Space here does not permit a
review of Mr.. Murphy's able adj
dress which was characteristic of
the leader who had successfully
matched wits with the combined
enemies of farm legislation dur
ing four months of ceaseless ac-
tivity at Washington.
Mr.. Murphy used plain and
forceful language and did not
mince matters in dealing with
the interests which have succeed
ed in delaying justice for the far
mers of America. His most en-
phatic declaration was that it is
only delayed-that the fight is
going to be won in the end, that
American agriculture will not
long remain submerged.
No speaker could win more
general or sincere applause than
was given by the large crowd on
this occasion.

etc. The Embellishments square deal policy,
however apparently did not substitute for the low
wages paid (the average wage in 1925 was $26.4S,
according to the company in computing which, the
wages Of the skilled workers were included). Rum
bings of dissatisfaction and some talk of organiza
ton were heard The company met this with attacks
in the magazine on labor unions, answering COM
plants with pages Of praise for its benefcent pa
ternalisms> calculated TO appease the workers and
neutralize their discomfort
OUCH is the character of these magaznes-useful
~ capitalist propaganda instruments AS ad-
vertising manager writes, commenting on the value
of employee magazines, Rather than make him feel
that he is being driven we have led him to take
such an interest in his work that he does more of
it better than he would if he did not have this sub
conscious feeling that his work is counting for
than' mere wagepaid motions"
The employee magazine is, then, designed to psy-
chologze workers into docile acceptance of capital
isms terms, and make them willing passive tools
in the hands of the employing class. 1t must be
exposed as medium for propagating the policies
of class collaboration and diverting labor from the
class struggle.
In those plants where factory groups OF the Work
ers (Communist) Party are organized factory news
papers should be issued having as one of their aims
to counter the propaganda OF the employers. This
will be treated more fully in another article. Elk
perience has shown that such shop papers, dealing
with the immediate problems of the workers from
their viewpoint relating their particular struggles
to those Of their class a whole, drawing the ne
cessary political conclusions find ready ear among
the working masses and therefore be used eff
fectively to expose the aim and character of the
employe magazine
THESE journals, however, bound up with the
policy of class collaboration. 1t is significant
that the spread of employee magazines has closely
followed the development Of company unions Both
are branches OF the same tree finding fertile soil
IN unorganized industry. The company union binds
the worker organizationally to the EMPLOYER car
rying out his production program as concerns wages
hours, output, etc. The employee magazines artfrllly
propaganda the workers to accept this program or
similar programs in plants having no company un-
ions. The main attack, therefore must be directed
against the entire practice of class collaboration.
