Brutal Coal BarOns Would
Stop Red Cross Aid

Des Moines.-Coal owners who re-
fused to sign the recent agreement
that has been accepted by employers
in this industry in Iowa stopped Red
Cross relief to suffering women and
children, according to officials of the
State Federation of Labor.
In their statewide appeal to aid
these miners and their dependents, the
federation officials say:
"The state chapter of Red Cross
started campaign to assist men,
women and children who are in desti-
tute circumstances in the mining COM
munities of Appanoose and Monroe
counties. The coal operators pro-
tested to the Nationl Red Cross who
sent representative to Iowa who in
structed the state chapter that they
could not assist the miners families
who were destitute. They also refus-
ed to allow the Red Cross agencies
to handle or distribute food or cloth
ing sent in by outside agencies"

new YORK LABOR
Lays Ten Planks Before
Governor

BY international Labor News Service.
Albany, N. Y.-The New York State
Federation Of Labor has laid before
Governor Smith program of legisla-
tion containing 10 major planks
These the governor has promised to
study, intimating, it is reported, that
he will favor some of the measures.
The ten major planks of labor are:
No injunction shall be issued in in
dustrial disputes unless the facts have
first been heard in court and all al
legged violations of the injunction
shall be tried before a jury.
The establishment of an exclusive
state insurance fund as the only work
mems compensation insurance in the
state except such as is supplied for
public employees from public funds.
Amendment of the workmen's com
pensation law to provide that all
workers disabled by sickness and dis
ease contracted in or caused by their
employments shall be compensated in
the same manner as if disabled by ac-
cidental injury.

Conference in Capital Plans
Court Battle to Smash Big
Drive of Traction Interests
Union Executives and Attorneys Go Over Defense to Be
Presented at Hearing on Interboroughs Pea-Green
Says Pending Suits Menace Unionisms Existence.

By International Labor News Service.
Washington, D. C-What very
probably will go down in history as
highlight in the annals of labor's
struggle against the injunction was a
conference held in the American Fed
Grafton of Labor Building December z,
when plans were made for the legal
fight against the plea of the Inter
borough Rapid Transit Company for
a sweeping injunction designed to pre-
vent the organization of subway and
elevated workers in New York city.
Leaders of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, headed by President
Green, with attorneys and economic
experts who will conduct the legal
battle, attended the conference. 1t
would be unwise to reveal at this time
any of the plans that were made but
it can be said that a defense of great
strength was outlined to combat the
application for the injunction, which
if granted would enjoin the Anal
gamated Association of Street and
Electric Railway Employees and every
officer and member of the American
Federation of Labor from helping in
any manner to organize New York's
exploited traction workers.

Indianapolis Times Suggests
President Coolidge Pardon
Imprisoned Union Organizers

By International Labor News Service
Indianapolis, Ind.-In discussing
the jailing of Robert B. Armstrong
and John M. Parker, officials of the
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric Railway Employees, the
Indianapolis Times, under the caption
of "A Place for Pardon" says edi-
torially:
In these days, when clemency by
pardoning powers is not entirely un-
known, it might be suggested that
President Coolidge could in good
taste free the two labor organizers
sent to jail by Judge Robert c. Bait
zell for contempt of his court.
The conduct of the street railway
strike year ago has aspects which
were at least suspicious.

WOMEN'S PARTY
Equal Rights Plan Would
Void Statutes

Washington.-With a craftsman
ship worthy of professional promot-
ers, the national women's party is
staging its campaign for this amend
ment to the federal constitution:
Men apd women shall have equal
rights throughout the United States
and every place subject to it's juris
diction"
The proposal is intended to correct
many inequalities that women are
subjected to in various states. These
include control of children and control
of their own property. The effect of
the amendment, however, would be to
invalidate all legislation intended to
protect women in industry. Organized
labor is opposed to the amendment.
The women't party can secure relief
from inequalities through state legis-
latures. This policy will be supported
by labor and it will not jeopardize
the whole structure of legislation for
women wage earners.

CIVIC FEDERATION
Program Lists Big Indus
trial Issues

BY International Labor News Service.
New York City.-Outstandin ques-
tions, of both domestic and foreign
import, will be discussed at the 9th
annual meeting of The National Civic
Federation to be held at Hotel Bilt-
more, New York city, on Wednesday
and Thursday, December IA and Is,
1927.
The broad divisions of the program
are commented upon as follows by
Ralph NJ Easley, chairman executive
council
Labor and the Sherman Act
These questions include; Should
the Sherman antitrust act and the
Clayton act be repealed, amended or
left intact?' Should the word 'rea-
sonable,' which the United States
supreme court wrote into the former
law but which seems recently to have
been taken out, be placed therein by
statute? Should the courts be pro-
hibited by legislation from issuing
against the unions the sweeping in
functions which recently have so upset
what labor believes to be its consti-
tutional rights?
Amendment of the Sherman law is
demanded by groups representing di-
verse interests, such as oil, coal min
ing, agricultural manufacturing and
labor, as well as by various trade as
sociations. For instance, with respect
to what is called the great coal trag-
edy, it is recognized that the crux of
the problem lies in the fact that there
are 1000 too many mines and 100000
too many miners and that the needed
'defation could be accomplished only
through agreements which would be
in contravention of the Sherman act
Similarly, the overproduction of oil
could be regulated only through
agreement among the producers
which, again, would contravene that
act.
"Another topic to be discussed is:
what is labor's answer to the "yel-
low dog" contract the United States
supreme court having decided that ar
employer may refuse to employ man
because he belongs to a union, anc
such refusal being the essence of said
contract? Granting that the employ.
er has the legal right to organize q
company union, is there any Legal
method whereby the trade union may
cope with this new and powerful OPP,

at the same time he was urging vio-
lence has some significance, to say the
least.
But more than that, the treatment
of these two men by the local police
was not such as to encourage any
great faith in law and order.
The records show repeated arrests
on charges of suspicion and release
on bonds without trial.
Industrial peace is not benefited by
such methods and tactics. Social JUS
tice does not seem likely to be ad-
vanced by Jail sentences.
The president could act, if he de-
sired, and probably assist greatly in
creating an atmosphere of better
feeling all the way around.

business and selling policies, find
themselves in distress. Miners wages
are not responsible for the plight of
these companies, but the companies
seem to think the easiest way to res
cue themselves is to take it out Of the
hide of the miner with low wages.
They propose to make the miner the
goat for all Of their own crazy busi-
ness faults. If they would but dag
nose their own case they would find
that it is not miners wages but their
own unsound and foolish business
methods in production and marketing
that are destroying them.

Washington.-The United States

of the city of Lincoln, Neb., to engage
in the gas and oil selling business.
The decision sustains a state su-

Oil Company, as plaintiff, claimed that
lower costs maintained by the muni-
pal gas station injured its property

derstood by the federal constitution

fundamental bearing on the future of

prepare a defense that will challenge
the attention of the nation. 1t is be-
lieved that the plans as presented to
the conference will bring out the his
toric Importance of the INTERIOR
ough's assault on trade unionism and
show the country the nature of its
menace to the rights of the workers.
Those at the conference included
President William Green, of the A. F.
of L.; Vice President Matthew Woll,
Edward F. McGrady and Edgar Wal
lace, of the A. F. of l.. legislative
committee; Otto Boyer, former repre-
sentative Nathan D. Perlman and
Herman Oliphant, professor of law
at Columbia University. Mr.. Perlman
and Prof. Oliphant are of labor's
counsel in the injunction case. A rep
resentative of United States Senator
Robert f. Wagner, chief of labor's
counsel, was also present, as was
Jurgen Kuczynski, statistician.
Green Points Out Menace of
Injunction
President Green is losing no oppor-
tunity to drive home to the public
labor's case against the injunction as
used in strikes. His latest attack is
made in the leading editorial of the
American Federationist for December,
Asserting that it is unfair for the
courts to become "the allies of en-
ployers in partisan struggle" Mr..
Green assails employers who have re-
sorted to injunctions, naming espe-
cially the Interborough Rapid Transit
Company and the Pittsburgh Termi-
nal Coal Corporation. He says in
part:
'Trade unionists are face to face
with a condition that menaces the
very life of our movement. Two
critical injunction situations exist at
| the present time: In Pennsylvania
there are injunctions against the
miners, and in New York city petit
tion is pending for an injunction
against the president and officials AMI
members of the American Federation
of Labor and the officials and mem
bership of the Amalgamated Associa-
tion of Street and Electric Railway
Employees of America.
"The injunction is used to make
the union illegal and to outlaw its
activity by judicial decree-to penal
ize through equity procedure acts
and agencies that are legal according
to law as enacted by our law-making
bodies.
Labor is willing to meet industrial
problems in the industrial field and
to work out solutions with employers
but labor holds it is manifestly unfair
| to allow the courts TO become the al
lies of employers in partisan strug-

Butler authorities wish to call the
grid fans attention to the fact
starting time for Saturdays game

thirty minutes and play against
Lombard will start at 2. Heretofore
Butler contests have opened at 2:30
Final preparatory touches to the

it's game with Lombard at Irwin
field Saturday afternoon were to be
plastered on the Bulldogs late this
afternoon after the Shortridge and
Tech scramble at the Irvington
gridiron had been decided.
Coach George (Potsy) Clark has
made no announcement of his line
ups, but from indications and plays
he is instructing his men on, his
starting eleven is as good as picked.
The Lombard team will outweigh
the Bulldogs on the line and will
balance evenly with the locals in the
back field. Probable lineups:
