Holiday Collections
On Decoration Day, when thousands
of workers were out in the various
camps and summer resorts, some of
them did not forget the struggle Of
the cloakmakers and furriers and
made it their business to do some
thing for the prisoners on their vaca-
tic@. At Camp Nitgedaiget, a COM
mittee put up a radio set which was
sold for $4,000. Comrade Losoff of
the Joint Defense Committee, was
present at Scamp Freilach," which is
situated near Camp Nitgedaiget. He
made an appeal in behalf of the
Cloakmakers and Furriers and the
collection amounted to $3.50.

The Miller Strike.

The fight was started by /. Miller
and Sons discharging fourteen work
ers, including officers and board
members Of the filters union. This
caused a walk-out Of the entire crew
Of about 100. Miller told Grady,
the General President o: the Amer
lean Union, at that time, that II he
would throw seven delegates out of
the Council they could do business.
Grady Immediately called a special
meeting Of the Council and succeeded
in having them expel the seven dele
gates, although they had no right to
do it, as these delegates were elected
by their locals and only the locals
could recall them. When no reported
to Miller he was told that that was
not enough, that they must throw
out the filters and lasters (meanine
the fighters in those two locals, as
most Of the militants were in these
locals). This was impossible for

FORD SAYS NEW CAR COST
HIM HUNDRED MILLION

Subtract 100000 from $780,
100000 and you have S250,000,, 700.
Now figure it out for yourself what
those first five or six Model AS cost
me-" said Henry Ford in an inter
view last week when he was asked
the cost of his new sample copies
which went on display throughout
the country on December 2.
He used his bank balance of one
year ago and his present surplus to
answer the question, and said the
difference represented the cost of
the first models. Therefore, $780,
100000 is somewhere near the ac-
tual cost of getting enough cars be-
fore the public view, or about S2O,-
100000 car.
No one was asked to help finance
Ford's new line of cars, but the
banks that hold the Ford surplus
worked overtime in satisfying de.
mands from the Ford offices. Still
he was not called upon to spend his
last $100,000,000 to accomplish what
he did within one year. No small
amount of this money spent was de
posit money" for new cars which
ran into many millions of dollars.
Mr.. Ford said that the new line
was not the result of hasty decision
but that such move was considered
inevitable as far back as five year;
ago.

VANCE WITHDRAWS CHARGES
AGAINST JUDGE HAYES

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator
Overman received a telegram from
D. T. Vance of Plumtree, today re-
questing that the charges Vance had
filed with the senator against the
confirmation by the senate of the
nomination of Johnson ]. Hayes to
be judge of the middle district, be
withdrawn. Mr.. Vance stated in his
message to Senator Overman that
he had filed the charges against
Judge Hayes sin the best of faith"
but having learned that the lawyers
in Judge Hayes district are express
ing confidence i'll him, and Mr.. Vance
not being a lawyer himself, and
therefore not as well qualified to
pass upon the qualification of a
judge as lawyers are, he withdraws
the charges filed and requests that
they be returned to him.
Senator Overman had on Saturday
filed Mr.. Vance's charges with the
senate Judiciary committee, and in
reply to Mr.. Vance's telegram advis-
ed him that with permission of the
committee he will withdraw the
charges. The senator said that with
the Withdrawal of these charges, so
far as he knew, there would be no
objection to Judge Hayes confrma-
ton.
