cause they have no other way of OPP
posing an independent labor candi-

form and has been endorsed as such
by many unions. They are lining uo
with the police departmet and the Los

an attempt to frame up a militant

legislative committee of the Central
Labor Council hauled VIM. Schneider
man, campaign manager, before the
committee, questioned him as to his
Communist affiliations, and cited the
charges made by reporter of the

Last Wednesday night, meeting
of delegates representing several
large unions organized Trade Union

purpose is to drive corruption out
Of the labor movement" With this
slogan they are preparing to GUST the
Buzzel machine in the June election
for officers, and are seeking TO sup
port progressive and left wing de-
legate to the Central Labor Council.
At this date, il is difficult to say
whether this opposition group repre-
sents only another set of reaction
aries or whether there are honest
progressive elements among them. II
Is reported that several prominent
officials who were active in the La
Dor Party of 1923, which was knitted
by the Horn-Buzzel machine that
they arc now fighting, took part In
this opposition caucus.

Nerve System Is
Seat of Disease,
Professor Claims

LENINGRAD, Mar. 20-(By NALL
Professor Speransly, who works In
the laboratory Of Academician Paw
loft, has made an important discovery
referring to the study of the causes
Of diseases of the organism. He In
troduced vaccines - antidiphtheritic
and anti-scarlet fever-into the brain
OF a sick organism, at the same time
taking spinal liquid from the verte-
bral column.
After performing experiments on
animals professor Speransky inocula-
ted into the brain Of children suffer-
ing from a heavy form of scarlet
fever anti-scarlatina vaccine in doses
Of from four to eight grammes.
These children recovered.
Professor Speransky has come 20
the conclusion that the disease infect
ing the organism is always seated in
the central nervous system. The all
ment of local organs-lungs, threats,
stomach-is only the external mani
festation of the nervous disease.
Therefore the struggle against any
disease must be directed into the do
main of the nervous system and the
brain.

FREE TEXT BOOK BILL
URGED IN TENNESSEE

Nashville, Tenn.-Free text books
are an essential part of popular de-
mand for compulsory education, ac-
cording to statement issued by Rep
resentatives Luther and Clark ex-
planning the text book bill introduced
in the state legislature.
SCHOOLS can not be free and we
can not properly use the term free
schools without free books. The
school house is erected at public ex-
pense The teacher is paid from pub
lis expense. All this is done by taxa
ton, yet the third, and often the most
important, factor of the three is not
provided in Tennessee.
'The text book expense is, in real
ity, the least of the educational ex-
penses, and is about one and one-half
per cent of the cost of maintenance,
support and equipment. The cost of
books, per child of school age in the
United States under all systems, when
figured together and based on the
books sold, is less than 81 cents per
child"

LOSS OF LIVES
In Tennessee Mine Disaster
Charged to Ignorance
of Laws

Nashville, Tenn.-A state legisla-
tive committee places blame for the
lockwood mine disaster on George
Mccoy, an irresponsible and ineffi-
cient gas boss. He lost his life in the
disaster. Blame is indirectly placed
on the Tennessee board of mine eX-
aminers for appointing this incompe-
tent, and on officials of the Roane Iron
Company for their negligence in ig-
noring safety laws.
The committee report shows that
mine officials failed to take the most
ordinary precautions to protect en-
ployes. Water had to be carried 500
feet in buckets to sprinkle any small
dust explosion that might occur. Dust
was permitted to accumulate in great
quantities and in number of in
stances was sprinkled once or twice a
year. Air passages were filled with
water with no effort to drain them,
although it was known that the air
ways were already too small.
Mccoy handed in for days before
the disaster uniform report which
clearly showed he was neglecting his
duty. These reports were signed
daily by the superintendent of the
mine who expressed no surprise that
they were Identical for SO long a
period.

WOMEN'S
Forty-Eight Hour Bill APP
proved in New York

Albany, N. Y.-Governor Smith has
signed the compromise 48-hour-week
bill for women in industry. Passage
of the act ends controversy that
has been prominent in state politics
for several years.
The bill which grants 49A hour
week where Saturday half holidays
are given to women workers, and also
provides for 78 hours during the year
in which women may be worked over
the schedule laid down in the new
law upon approval by the state indus
trial commission, was framed after
a years investigation by the legisla-
tive industrial survey commission.
The former maximum was Sd hours
a week.
"My only regret" the governor
wrote in his approving memorandum,
''is that the benefits of this bill should
have been withheld for so many years
for no good reason, and that this gen.
eral welfare act should needlessly
have become the subject of political
controversy.
"This bill! providing for 4s-hour
week, has been before the state of
New York for at least IA years. Last
year when it became apparent that
the public would no longer tolerate
a delay in adopting this beneficial
measure, legislative commission was
appointed to investigate this SUBJ
ject, along with several others affect
ing labor and workmen's compensa-
tion, and the commission reported in
favor of the 48-hour bill with certain
exceptions. Some of these exceptions
and reservations might, in my opin-
ion, better have been omitted, but the
principle is established and the bill
provides substantial part of what
many people of the state have been
contending for for years"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1927-04-22

The committee said the mine oper-
ators were using out-of-date methods
and did not obey mining laws that
obligate them to make proper investi-
cations and keep informed on safety
conditions.
The report includes evidence that
Mccoy boasted that gifts of liquor to
mine inspectors, mine examiners and
officials were chiefly responsible for
his certificate as Class ga" gas boss.
Organized labor is calling on the
Tennessee general assembly to remedy
a condition that denies workers the
right to organize and protect them
selves while permitting lax officials
to gamble with life.

Industrial Affairs Committee
Votes For Measure, 70 to 5;
Employers Hostility Barred

Otto A. Jaburek, attorney for the
Chicago Employers Association, and
the Associated Employers of Illinois,
together with several representatives
of the Illinois Manufacturers Asso-
citation, made futile efforts to stop the
progress of the measure
Representative Thomas l.. Fekete,
Jr., of East ST. Louis, took up the
cudgels in support of the corporation
interests, but was out-generaled by
Representative Harry NJ McCaskrin,
of Rock Island, who introduced the
bill, and by Representative R. C. So
derstrom, the aggressive young Typo
graphical Union member from Strea-
tor, who insisted upon immediate
action.
Motions made by representative
Fekete to cause delay were promptly
tabled upon motions offered by Rep
resentative Frank Holten, of East St.
Louis, who actively supported the bill
During the course of the hearing
representative Frank A. Mccarthy,
of Elgin, caused the employers at
torney to stumble badly by a series
of shrewd questions which brought
out the fact that employers organi-
cations are constantly endeavoring to
prevent workers from organizing.
Officers of the Illinois State FEEDER
alton of Labor agreed that President
John H. Walker should make the open
ing statements in support of the bill
and that Secretary Victor A. Olander
should be held in reserve for rebuttal,
but after the employers case had
been presented the federation officials
decided upon a change of tactics and
made sudden move for a vote,
which resulted in the favorable action.
