In an address +. X. Cormack re-
Gently made before the Rotary Club
at FL Centre on "Imdustrial Agri-
culture' he called attention to the
inability of man, due to physical
reasons, to consume more than a
limited amount of food, but further
stated that mankind s ability to
consume products other than food
was limited only by his purchasing
power; therefore the future of agri-
culture depended upon the farmer s
ability to realize his dual response
bility--the growing of plant life for
food and also for industrial pur-
poses.
With two basic crops, cotton and
hemp, both raw material for the tex

Chicago Cap Makers
Meet Lockout with
1907 PiCketing

CHICAGO, (FP), Dec. 16. - The
Chicago Cap Manufacturers Assn.
which ordered its members to break
their agreements with the Chicago
Capmakers union and locked out some
200 unionists, was duped into believing
that the entire cap industry would
follow their lead and thus crush the
workers organization, according to
union officials. The man who gave
this authentic" information to the
association is Percy Ginsburg, former
member of the executive board of the
international. union, now on the other
side as manager of the association.
Ginsburg told the employers that
they would have no trouble in forcing
the unionists back to the sweatshop
and piecework basis as there would
be national attack on the union. But
the national attack failed to material
ize and in New York the manufactur-
ers were forced to grant the demands
of the workers two days after the
Chicago lockout was in effect.
Picketing of the association shops
has been 100 per cent effective. De-
spite advertisements in the newspa-
pers for scab capmakers and the pro-
mise of police protection not single
association shop is operating. Three
shops that attempted to open with
scab workers were forced to close
down. The lockout was declared by
16 shops. There are 10 independent
shops in the city that are operating
under the union agreement and no
trouble whatsoever exists in them.
The lockout is seen by the union as
an attempt to bluff the workers into
granting concessions to the employers
THE workers are fully aware of this
bluff" says j. Salsberg, manager of
the joint board, "and are determined
to compel the association to uphold its
contract. Not single union member
has left the ranks. The entire labor
movement is behind the union in this
fight"

Senator Caraway Drags

Tariff Herring Across
Farm Relief Highways

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. = A
southern attack on the equalization
fee backbone" of the McNary-
Haugen bill today threatened to split
the ranks of the farm bloc in the
senate.
With Western republicans support
ing the equalization fee, which Presi-
dent Coolidge vetoed a year ago,
Southern democrats were reported
rallying to the new Caraway plan,
which would virtually repeal the tar
iff so far as American agriculture is
concerned. The Caraway plan was
certain to inject tariff war into the
agricultural relief fight.
Senator Caraway (D) of Ark, has
a program including every feature of
ire McNary Haugen plan except the
equalization fee. In its stead Cara
way would take care of the surplus
crop by allowing farm organizations
to bring into the United States duty
free quantity of foreign products
equal in value to the quantity of sur
plus crops exported.
The Caraway bill seems especially
designed to invalue farm relief dig
cussion in a mass of tariff talk.

anthracite Miners
Unemployed While
Union Heads Sleep

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Dec. TO-
The officialdom of the United Mine
Workers in the anthracite region
hailed the anthracite cooperative
coal conference, which was held the
first part of November in Mt. Car
mel, aG step towards getting mar
kets for the coal operators, to re-
lieve the unemployment of the an
thracite workers, which so greatly
increased after the last strike of the
miners in this region.
Unemployment Worse,
Despite this the unemployment sit
uatlon in the tri-districts is getting
worse. Such big coal companies as
the Hudson Coal, Pennsylvania Coal
Co., Reading Coal Co., and the Lee
nigh Valley are all working only two
and three days a week.
Savings of miners are being eaten
up. The coal operators are taking
advantage Of the fact that thousands
OF miners are walking the streets
oy Worsening conditions of miners
employed part time. The obvious
policy of the coal operators is to
starve the miners and then start an
open shop drive 1t is the policy
the soft coal operators pursued after
signing the Jacksonville agreement.
Need for Left Wing Action.
Miners cannot meet payments on
furniture, groceries and houses. The
lett wing must Immediately organize
mass movement for their assist
ance against the officialdom of the
Mine Workers Union who are not
preparing the union for the struggle
which alone can remedy the situa-
ton.

the Hearst forgeries, above mentioned,
are exposed with photographically re-
produced evidence.
DAILY WORKER, 80 First Street,
New York"
All Doubt Removed.
WASHINGTON, D. c., December
16.-The result of the senate investi-
cation into the charges of bribery
made by William Randolph Hearst
against four United Sta, es senators,
after two days of testimony has left
no doubt that the documents offered
by Hearst in proof of his charges are
forgeries.
Hearst editors unwillingly admitted
under examination that scarcely any
attempt was made to establish the
genuineness of the alleged official
documents of the Mexican government.
Hinman Heard RumOrs.
When the inquiry was resumed at
HIS o'clock yesterday, George
Wheeler Human, Jr., foreign cor
respondent for the Hearst newspapers
in Mexico City, was called to The
stand.
Human testified that he had heard
"rumors" in Mexico City of the ex-
istence of documents concerning pay
ment to certain Americans. He had
heard, he said, that the records of
the Mexican treasury would show it.
However, Human said, he never fol-
lowed up the rumors, after he was
transferred from Mexico City to New
York.
Watson, editor of "The Mirror"
testified he had first heard of the
Mexican document early in July from
E. D. Coblentz, editor of the New
York American. Later he said he
inspected the papers at Hearst's ranch
in California.

asked Reed.
"At first blush l was impressed

Watson said, he told Page there
should be some clinching evidence as
to their genuineness.

strike. suggested to Page, too, that
he go to the state department.
All this time Watson said, he had
been one of the managing editors of
the New York American. In October,
he said, he took over the editorship
of The Mirror and stepped out of the
picture leaving further details con-
corning the Mexican document to
Coblentz.
Senator Robinson (D) of Arkansas,
asked the editor what convinced him
that the documents were genuine.
II asked Page" said Watson, "if
he had some of Gales signatures. He
did and I compared them with those
on the document. l was convinced
they were the same"

Reed asked Watson, whether in sug-
