Illinois Miners Still
Reject Wage Cut

Continued from Page One)
open or secret wage cut is as great
as ever. Harry Fishwick, president of
District u, repeated again as he en-
tered the conference chamber that he
chopped to settle the dispute thru some
other arrangement than cutting
wages" But he did not say what that
arrangement is, and if it includes a
hidden wage cut, thru a provision for
worsening the conditions of work, or
performance of more unpaid work by
the miner, there may be lot of
trouble for Fishwick.
Against Local Mining.
The policy which some of the OPP
orators and the union agree upon, of
opening mines on a district basis, or
even on local basis, one mine at a
time, is not popular in Illinois,, Re-
cent reports that enough separate
mining companies had reopened under
the Jacksonville scale to put back to
work 10000 miners in Illinois are
fatty denied by progressives in close
touch with the situation in their in
dustry.
There may be, these say, as many
as 1000 men back at work, and in
some cases where separate agree
ments have been made, the men have
walked out again, afterwards, rather
than break the united front Of their
union.

DAVIS PLANS TO
TRY CzARISM ON
FOREIGN BORN
Names and Fingerprints
to Be Listed by Police
(By Federated Press.

WASHINGTON. - Trade union
leaders in Washington are trying to
reconcile the purported era of good
will in industry between capital and
labor with the savage campaign be-
ing initiated by government officials
and a part of the press for the revi-
val of the red hunts of 1919-1920. If
industrial conditions are as peaceable
as painted, they ask, why the insistent
cutlery for the arrest and deportation
for foreign-born radical workers and
stricter laws against the native-born.
Will Terrorize Foreign-born.
Secretary of Labor Davis will de-
mand tighter immigration laws from
the next session of congress and
while these will be aimed ostensibly
at curtailing the "bootlegging" or il
legal entry of immigrants, jokers in
the bill will require the closest atten-
ton of labor. Working through exist
ing statutes, Davis is bent on insti-
tuting more thorough search of I'M
migrants minds. He is having acute
psychological tests devised which
will ferret out hidden sympathies Of
prospective immigrants toward union
and radical ideas. These tests, admin
istered abroad in secret star cham
Der sessions by consular agents, will
weed out the "undesirables" and the
agitators, he hopes.
Davis gets loyal support from the
Washington Star, reactionary repub-
lican paper which for the past month
has kept up an insistent editorial din
for the suppression of radical agita-
ton. Confusing anarchists, radicals
and criminals, the Star characters
tically effuses:
Registration Urged.
"a systematic roundup of radicals
has been urged since the Sacco-Van-
zetti agitation began for the purpose
of deporting those who are alien and
holding under some form of restraint
those who have citizenship status.
Such a housekeeping is certainly to
be desired, in view of the plain fact
that this country is at present infested
with anarchists who are both openly
and secretly working to undermine the
foundations of government. Unfor-
tunately there is lacking in this coun-
try a system of registration enabling
the police to identify dangerous char
acters, but in view of the flagrancy
of utterance and action on the part
of many of those who are thus en-
gagged in propaganda and crime
against the state it should not be
difficult to make large clearance Of
these plotters and destroyers, with
the result of decided gain toward
public safety"

SECRETS OF

You may be one OF those wise

you employ q little while each
morning in some form of physical
exercise to set you up for the
day. And such exercises do set
you up. That is the reason why
in both the Army and Navy they
are called ''setting-up exercises.
In all setting-up exercises leg
movements are very properly
conspicuous, But there can De
both use and abuse of leg exer.
cises.
The right time to use leg exer-
cises, explains Surgeon Command
er Hill, OF the English Navy, ID
at the beginning Of a series. The
object is to squeeze the waste
products out Of the leg muscles.

morning. Fer instance, you

time. The legs contain a con-
siderable quantity of blood and
their total weight is quite big:
moreover, their blood vessels have
to support the weight of all the
blood in the body. The result
is that the vessels get clogred
with waste products more easily
than any other vessel groups.
A few movements OF the legs.
a few contractions of the muscles
