CHARGED WITH CUTTING
MAN FOR GIFT TO GIRL.
Admirer, Resenting others Present Of
Candy, Accused of SIashing Him.

Enraged by another's gift of candy
to a girl whom he admired, Ernest
Grass, of New Gretna, is alleged to
have slashed William Walton, of N.
New Haven avenue, Ventnor, with a
butcher knife. Grass was jailed in Mt.
Holly, in default of $4,000 bail to await
the action of the grand jury on a
charge of assault with intent to kill.
Walton and Grass met in New Gret-
ma and Grass started an argument
with Walton, accusing the latter of
having sent box of chocolates to the
girl.
The alteration became heated and
Grass is alleged to have attempted to
shoot Walton and failing, to have
picked up a large butcher knife and
slashed Walton's right arm.
State police We're notified and Troo-
per Cassidy, of the Absecon station,
arrived in time to arrest Grass. JUS
tice of the Peace Throckmorton, of
Mt. Holly, fixed bail for Grass, but the
latter could find no bondsman. Six
stitches were taken in Walton's arm.

The One-Way Drive
:.s
WITH
APOLOGIES

The one-Way traffic scheme
embodied in the ordinance which
establishes such a regulation
around the court house square,
was presented Monday night,
read for the first time and re-
ferred to the safety and service
committees.
This idea does not by any
manner of means appear to meet
the approval of the merchants
affected by the adoption of such
a radical change in the general
order of things which have ex-
listed since the court house was
a log hut and OK teams were
hitched to the trees which sur
rounded it.
The "Hired Man" has spoken
of the proposed innovation to
quite a number, and has yet to
find one single solitary indivi-
dual in favor of Newark adopt
ing the plan which prevails at
present in the village Of Mt. Yer
non. 1t is the general opinion
that no possible advantage would
be gained, but that inconven-
ience, confusion and loss of time
would be the inevitable result.

LABOR'S PICTURE BARRED
CITY OFFERS POOR EXCUSE

Durham, N. C.-The mayor and
common council refused to permit the
exhibition of the moving picture,
"Labor's Reward" in the municipal
auditorium. The city fathers labored
long and earnestly over the problem
of whether the union meeting would
be a picture show or an illustrated
lecture 1t was finally voted that it
was a motion picture and the ban was
agreed to.
The officials claim that the insur-
ance rate would be raised $500 if the
picture was shown, but this is denied
by insurance men. The Durham
County Progress, weekly newspap-
er published in this city, said the
claim is "pure bunk" and that insur-
ance authorities stated the extra fire
hazard could be covered at small
cost.
"Many cities have given their audi
torinms, schools and other public
buildings and many times churches
for the presentation of this educa-

tional film, says the newspaper. "Be-
cause it is strictly educational it was
recently passed into Canada free of
duty and without payment Of the reg
ular $25 censor charge"
Local trade unionists made such
protest against the council ruling,
that the officials finally compromised
by permitting the use of the audi
torium for a trade union lecture and
without the picture.
The councils action is indicative of
the attitude toward the trade union
movement in this state. Only recent
ly officials of the State Federation
of Labor asked the governor to make
a survey of conditions in textile mills,
but the request was refused. The
state university asked the Textile
Manufacturers association to permit
students to visit textile mills for edu-
catioanl purposes, but this, too, was
refused. 1t is rare thing for a
North Carolina textile worker to earn
an average of $50 week for a year.
The work ranges from 55 to 60 hours.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1926-03-19

The following editorial appeared in
a Sioux City daily recently:
"Men, women and children in
the anthracite fields are hungry,
yet the strike goes on. There are
no reports to the effect that the
leaders who called the strike and
repeatedly have ordered it to con-
tinue are being denied any of the
necessities or comforts of life"
Is the man who wrote that a fool
or a knave? Let's give him the ben
eft of the doubt and consider him
the former. Let us assume that he
doesn't know that every strike is call
ed only after a vote is taken in it's
favor by the workers themselves. Let
US assume that the poor fellow doesn't
know that if it had not been for
strikes on the part of laborers, with
all the hunger and cold and loss in
every way for the Individual strikers
and their brave wives and their chill
dren, during the last fifty years,
wages would be just where they were
then, since employers of labor, except
in a few rare and negligible cases,
have never voluntarily raised the
wages of their workmen.
We should like to sit down beside
this ignorant editorial writer and try
to think out with him what it would
mean for America to have its millions
of wage earners living on the wages
of fifty years ago. And while we
were talking together in this friendly
fashion we might let our minds ven
ture into the future till the time
when American workers receive their
just share of the prices we consumers
have to pay.

these things but purposely prevaricat-

Policeman Guilty

The much discussed case of
Policeman Burton, charged with
acting in a manner as to cause
the delinquency of a sixteen
year-old girl, came to an end in
the juvenile court Thursday of
last week when the jury return
ed a verdict of guilty.
Defendants counsel immedl-
ately gave notice that a motion
for a new trial would be filed,
and the court granted three days
grace for that purpose. Burton
was released under a $1,000
bond signed by his mother Mrs.
Nettie Hall.
' No case of recent date has eX-
cited the interest Of the public
or drawn the crowds as has this
scandal in the police department
of Newark. People were in wait
ing when the court room doors
were opened and came prepared
to make a full day of it, some it
is said even bringing their lunch
with them. Standing room was
at a premium and many were
unable to gain admittance.
Such cases as this do not add
to the good name of the town
among our neighbors or raise
the standing or reputation of its
police department, which al
ready is not above par.
Within the limit fixed by the
court a motion for a new trial
was filed by Burton's attorneys.

There Is Really
No Substitute
For Unionism
Which Is the OutgrOwth of
Experiences and Ideals of
Those Concerned
(By WILLIAM GREEN)
(Pres. A. F. of L.

The trade union is the only agency
which workers have developed to
serve their needs. 1t is the only
agency which they control and conse-
o1entiy it is the only agency which
they fully trust. In a conflict OF
opinions with management, onl y an
independent agency can maintain the
contention of wage earners. Whether
in maintaining their rights OF express
ing their views on production prob
lens or technical change. if workers
are to make their contribution they
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1926-03-19

must be free to contend for their po-
sltlon.
For example, trade unions helped
scientific management to correct early
mistakes by refusing to permit men
and women to be treated as machin-
cry Scientific management learned
it was necessary to understand hu-
man nature and to work with it in
stead of against it. Consent is neces-
sary for co-operation-co-operation
implies volition, not passive non-re-
sistance.
Obviously employe representation
plans, drafted by management, are
essentially different from trade un-
ions. The trade union is a natural
outgrowth from the experience and
ideals of those concerned. 1t is the
creation of workers, while the en-
rloye representation plan originates
with another party, interested from
another point of view.
1t is very difficult for many to rea-
liZe that cooperation is the antithesis
of domination. Domination, whether
through bolshevism, fascism or a
company "union," does not beget CO.
operation.
Cooperation reflects a high level
of human living and thinking.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1926-03-19

ing then let US put upon his words
the kindest Interpretation we can and
say he is but the tool of the mine
owners, who hire him to write such
mean, sarcastic, sneaking editorials to
mislead the reader who has no means
of knowing the truth-which is that
the mine owners caused the strike by
breaking three-year contract they
had signed with the miners, leaving
absolutely no other course open to
the miners unless they would for a lit
tie less suffering to themselves let
slip all that has been gained through
half century of the sacrificing of
others.
He has been bid to never question
the right of any man to grow i'm
mensely wealthy out of that which
earth for the comfort of men, women
and little children. Because he is a
tool he would discourage by such
poisonous words the response which
Is now being made all over this coun-
try for help to be sent the families of
the strikers.
If he had been living sixty years
ago he would have been among the
defamers of Abraham Lincoln. He
would have written something like
this: "Men, women and children in
the south are hungry. Our young
men are dying in thousands. Yet the
war goes on. There are no reports
to the effect that the man who called
the war and repeatedly has ordered
it to continue is being denied any of
the necessities or comforts of life"
In the time of the Civil War such edi-
tors were called "Copperheads," and
it was a good name.-Painter and
Decorator Journal.

The Workers
Colleges Are
Growing Fast
Institutions Formed by City
Central Bodies to Study
Economic Subjects

New York-Workers' colleges,
consisting of evening classes
conducted by labor organizations
are increasing in numbers, ac-
cording to a statement issued by
the Workers Educational Bu-
reau. The constitution of the
bureau provides for functional
representation to the A. F. of
L., to national and international
affiliates, to local unions, work.
ers' colleges and study classes.
The representatives of the A. F.
of L. are Matthew Woll, George
w. Perkins and John P. Frey.
"These workers colleges are form
ed, as a rule, by city central bodies,
though several state federations and
national unions have appointed full
time educational directors to promote
them. They are primarily for adult
wage earners of both sexes. The
studies tend to center around the
of the day, although in every case
the subjects are decided by the COL
lege itself.
"In some respects these colleges
are better fitted for the study of So
cial and economic subjects than is the
ordinary college or university. One
Of the most important of these re-
spects is that the workers who at
tend are as a rule deeply interested
in social problems, while college stu
cents are not.
"This claim is sustained by Presi-
dent Angel of Yale university, who
said, in his annual report, issued in
February:
GA few ardent souls are always
stirred by the unrighteousness of in
dustrial, social Or political conditions,
and voices proclaiming the gospel of
religious and moral reform are always
to be heard in the academis wilder
ness. But, in general, the undergrad
Uate is ill-informed about political
affairs, and notably Indifferent to
chem, except in the presence of an
election
at is certain that workers colleges
will play very important part in
the future history of America" the
bureaus statement says. "For infor-
nation about them write to the Work
ers' Education Bureau of America,

fellow" and materializes our moral

"Why don't you attend church ?"

News Review of
Current Events
Waterways Seems to Be One
of Livest Issues Before the
American People
(Spe ,ial to The Leader)

VIZ AIhh AIS seems To De one OF
w the livest issues of the day be-
fore the American people The week
has seen several striking demonstra-
tions of Importance Of the subject and
Of the popular interest.
Possibly of first Importance was Sec
retary Of Commerce Hoover's address
at Chicago outlining an inland water
way system that would work wonders
for the Middle West-and therefore
for the whole nation. Within FIVE
years, he predicted, the Mississippi sys-
TEN would be functioning from Chica-
go to New Orleans and from Pitts
burgh to Kansas City. Congress and
the President are agreed upon the nee
essary appropriations.
Secretary Hoover considered the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway
even more valuable. Two problems,
he said, are involved: the deepening
of the channel to the sea and the
stabilization Of lake levels. The lakes
are from two to three feet shallower
than they were seven years ago Some
thing less than one-sixth Of the fall he
attributed to the diversion of water
at Chicago and the rest to the climatic
cycle Whatever the cause, the rem
edy, he said, lay In the construction
of control works above Niagara falls.
"Our United States engineers tell
us-and we have the best engineer
t. IL hot no
store the level Of the lakes by cur
failing the outflow at Niagara until
they fill up" Mr.. Hoover explained.
"They tell us that proportionately to
the gigantic flow it is a small Job. BY
80 doing we will have equhlized the
vagaries of climate and stabilized the
vagaries of emotion"
