Want Amendment of
N. Y. Labor Law to
Escape Court Rule

ALBANY, N. Y, Dec. Is, - Amend
ment OF the state labor Law to pre-
vent it coming under the decision of
the U. S. supreme court in the deci-
sion on the constitutionality of the
Oklahoma eight-hour and prevailing
rate of wages law was recommended
by the executive board of the New
York state federation OF labor meet
ing here. The amendment should
provide for a plan for ascertaining
prevailing wages, the board said, and
create an automatic penalty for viola
ton, including guaranteed recovery
by the worker from the employer of
the difference between the wages paid
and the prevailing wage.
Attorney General Ottinger has in
timated that the New York law may
be declared void under the Oklahoma
decision, and this prompted the ac-
ton of the federation.
Another amendment to the labor
law to strike out the exceptions to the
6-day week work, was also urged. At
present certain workers are forced to
work seven days a week.

Start Drive to Get
Property Tax Rate
Here Cut in Half

Declaring that the net balance of
S1S,326,000 on the general revenue
fund of the state of Illinois, justifies
tax reduction, the Chicago Civic
Federation has launched a drive to
have at least As cents per 800 pro-
perty value slashed from the IS cents
now assessed. The federation main
tains that 40 cents is sufficient tax.
This would relieve Illinois property
owners Of paying $14.OoO,OOO in taxes
to the state every year.
The federation also points out that
there is discrimination against the
small property owners in favor Of the
large corporations. because the corpo-
rations obtain reduction In their as
sessed value by appearing in court,
while this is impossible for the small
taxpayers.
The tax board, including Gov. Small,
Oscar Nelson, state auditor OF public
accounts, and omer N. Custer. state
treasurer, is expected to announce the
new tax rate soon.

BOSTON, Mass, Dec. 13.-The Lib

money received and expenditures in
Cured by the republican state COM
mittee of Massachusetts, in connection
with the campaign to elect Butler to
the senate"
Crooker's telegram, made public,
says: "As general counsel Liberal

wide scope, desire to respectfully
call your attention to staggering

penditures incurred by republican

connection with campaign to elect But.

"There is an unexplained and un.

NJ. Richmond of S62,253.45 and a dis
crepancy Of over $4,000 between
amounts of cash itemized and re-
ceived and amount of expenditures ad-
mittedly made.
IF the senate was shocked by New
berry expenses aggregating $4,000
it would seem that the amount here ex-
pended and incurred in excess OF
$3.50 900, which is probably no more
than a quarter of what was actually

z new COURSES
ARE STARTED AT
WORKERS SCHOOL
Citizenship and Women
Problems Studied

NEW YORK, Dec. IS. - Altho the
Workers School fall term started in
November, the pressure for new
courses has been so great that addi-
tional new classes are still stayting.
Two additional courses for Monday
night are now announced. The first
of these is a course in Citizenship"
with Joseph Brodsky, the well known
labor attorney, as instructor. This
course should be Of direct interest to
foreign-born workers wishing to be-
come citizens Of the United States or
wishing for a better understanding
of American Institutions and govern
ment.
Is Important Course.
The course is Of special interest at
the present time because of the many
bills pending in congress for the regis
tration, f1ngerprinting and the deporta-
ton of non-citizens born in foreign
countries, and also because Of the de-
cision of the Workers Party, various
workers clubs and trade unions to
llethC do ludHy VI Iubll
members as possible citizens OF the
United States for the sake Of more
adequate participation in the Ameri-
can class struggle. On the one hand
citizenship qualities the worker for
participating in the elections and on
the other renders more difficult the
attempts to deport and intimidate
foreign-born workers when they en-
gage In strikes and other union ac-
tivities.
All unions, workers clubs and units
Of the Workers Party should call the
attention of their membership to this
important course. 1t is given on Mon
day nights at 9:15 o'clock.
Women's Problems.
The other new course scheduled
for Monday nights at the same hour
is the course entitled, Problems Of
Working Glass Women" with Arthur
G. Calhoun, Theresa Wolfson, Leona
Smith and Margaret INDUS az in
structors.

Burton Regrets That
Outlook Is Not Fair
for Joining of Court

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. - Repres-
entative Theodore E. Burton of Ohio,
delegate to the recent meeting at
Geneva of the preparatory commission
for a disarmament conference, ex-
pressed regret that the outlook is not
bright" for United States joining the
world court in addressing meeting
here to discuss causes and cure of war.
Burton said he hoped the league
would accept Americas reservations
so the United States could join. He
also deplored the attitude of the sen
ate on the matter.
America favors disarmament, any
way said Burton, but added that dis
armament is not practical until all ma.
lions carry it out.

IN EFFICIENCY
Offers Trade Unions for
Incorporation"
tspeeIaI 70 rhe palIy Werkerl

NEW YORK, Dec. Is. - AS one
more step in the public campaign of
he officials Of the American Fedora
ion of Labor for "management-em-
ployee cooperation" Mathew VOL, a
yice-president of the A. f. of l.. spoke
before the American Society of Me-
chanical Engineers meeting here and
advocated increase of efficiency in
production.
Take workers Ideas"
-The average workman" Vol said,
develops a technical knowledge Of
his Job and thinks of ways his work
might be better done, waste elimi-
mated and time and energy saved. Be-
cause Of his intimate contact with job
details and his specialized knowledge
he can suggest Improvements which
are outside the experience of manage
ment and so make a specialized con-
tribution. When he has no channels
through which to voice his ideas, they
are lost to the industry. But if the
means can be found to make these
ideas available for practical use, a
working force Of men intent upon in
creasing efficiency can be developed
and chance for all men to find crea-
tive expression in their work will be
provided.
"share In Enterprise"
This means must come thru CO.
operation between management and
men to increase production efficiency"
said Vol. But in order that the
workers may join with the manage
ment IN whole-hearted cooperation,
certain conditions are necessary. They
must have confidence and they must
feel responsible for their share in the
common enterprise; they must know
that the management will give them
the chance to put their ideas into
practice when they are worth while,
since management is the controlling
force. Especially they must know that
when profits result from their efforts
they will receive their full share. Only
under such conditions can the work
ers' full mental energy be liberated
for their work"
Vol promised that trade unions
affiliated to the American Federation
of Labor stood ready to be the me-
dunn thru which this collaboration
for increased production can be eff
fected. He was followed by a Chi
cago engineer who told the convention
that the conveyor system would cut
down production and payroll costs by
over 20 per cent. A large number of
workers could then be released" for
work in other fields and in industries
yet to arise.

M'KINLEY DEATH
RAISES ISSUE ON
ILLINOIS CRAFT
Will Governor Appoint
Smith, Is Question

SPRINGFIELD Dec. 13-The death
of Senator William B. Mckinley at
Martinsville Tuesday has definitely
raised the issue as to whether Gov.
Len Small will appoint Frank L.
Smith, Illinois senator-elect, to fill the
vacancy for the short session of con-
gress.
Mckinley, who was defeated in the
republican primary election by Smith,
died following a long illness. His
death was expected for some weeks,
and the problem Of who will be ap-
pointed to fill his vacancy in the SEN
ate has been disturbing republican
political leaders for some time.
Will Precipitate Storm.
If Gov. Small appoints Smith the
ousting proceedings that are certain
to be started against him because of
the slush fund contributed by Samuel
insult will be precipitated in the pres.
ent session Of congress. Reports from
the state capitol indicate that Small
is considering the appointment Of
Smith, altho the governor has refused
to make public statement.
Republicans are visibly worried
over the situation. They are not pre-
pared for the storm surrounding Smith
to break before the next session Of
congress, and were counting on the
public forgetting" before then.
