LOBBYISTS GET TIP:
PREPARE FOR PROBE

Washington.-Pow trust lobbyists
received advance information on Sen
ator Walsh's resolution for a probe of
the public utilities.
The lobbyists prepared brief
against the investigation nine days
before the resolution was introduced
in the senate, according to testimony
submitted to the Federal Trade Com
mission. This testimony revealed the
alertness of high-priced attorneys
who rounded up security holders and
investment bankers to oppose the reso-
luton.
A meeting of these attorneys was
held in New York City to arrange a
line of attack against the probe. The
meeting was held in the home OF
William L. Ransom who later made
the final argument against the Walsh
resolution before the Senate Inter
state Commerce Committee.
Ransom is the $4,000 attorney
who is now aiding the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company of New York
to break it's scent fare contract with
that city. The company insists that
the city pay Ranson's salary and ex-
pense.

breaking interests in the coal fields
of southern Ohio to oust Wesley HI.
Maurer, an assistant professor of
journalism at Ohio University, Ath-

The convention instructed the Off
GERS to investigate and to take all
necessary steps from trade union
standpoint to protect Professor Maur-
er in his right of academic freedom
if the facts as stated were found to
be true.
The Maurer case had been preju-
diced by reason of the fact that or

tuals," who believe themselves or

New York Labor Department
Cleared Of Fraud Charges
By Governors Investigator

Albany q. L. N. S.)-Charges OF
fraud against the New York state
department of labor have been found
baseless by DR.. Lindsay Rogers, ap-
pointed by Governor Smith to inves-
tigate the allegations.
DR.. Rogers criticizes the state in
dustrial commissioner, James A.
Hamilton, for holding 'the insurance
companies at arms length" and says
that the department needs some ad-
ministrative changes. But so far as
corruption is concerned the depart
ment and it's workmen's compensation
bureau get "clean bill Of health"
The fraud charges were made in
newspaper interviews in December
and January by State Senator James
S. Truman, chairman of the indus
trial survey commission, committee
organized by the legislature; Assem-
blyman Jasper w. Cornaire, mem
Der of the commission, and Henry d.
Sayer, its executive secretary. They
repudated the interviews at hear
ing before Dr. Rogers, but he con-
tinued the inquiry.
Sayer was an official of the depart
ment of labor from 1915 to 1923, serv-
ing the two last years of that period
as industrial commissioner under

Governor Miller. He is now president
of the Wolff Industrial Service, Inc,
which provides medical service for in
jured workmen and so comes in con-
stant contact with the department of
labor. 1t has an income of nearly
half million dollars a year from
insurance carriers and employers.
For a man holding such a position
to become the executive secretary Of
legislative committee investigating
a department he once headed DR..
Rogers considers obviously improper.
The alleged refusal of Commission
er Hamilton to deal with the New
York Claims Association and to an
swer letters of the National Board of
Casualty and Guaranty Underwriters
prompted DR.. Rogers criticism of that
official.
ut is highly improbable" he says
in his report, "that if the industrial
commissioner had not isolated himself
from the insurance companies, and if
Mr.. Sayer with his insurance connec-
tons had not been executive secretary
of the industrial survey commission,
charges of fraudulent workmen's COM
pensation cases ever would have been
made"

COST-PLUS SYSTEM
DEMORALIZED LABOR

Washington.-The cost-plus system
that employers were permitted to ap-
ply during the World War, had
worldwide effect in demoralizing la
Dor, declared Ethelbert Stewart, Unit
ed States commissioner Of labor stat
istics.
The scheme was supposed to speed
up production.
Under a cost-plus plan,' said Mr..
Stewart, "the less a worker does the
more valuable he is to his employer,
and petty bosses were not slow in
making this apparent to the workers
themselves. We are fortunate in hav-
ing recovered from the influence Of
that diabolical scheme as rapidly as
we have"

Utilities Seen in Alliance
With Seattle School Board
Teachers Charge They Are Being Punished For Refusal
To Aid in Circulating Utility Propaganda i'm Educa-
tonal Institutions of Washington State

| inc Corliss Preston, state superintend-
ent of public instruction, and because
of other acts of hostility on the part
of the teachers toward the machina-
tions of the power trust.
| The teachers point out that the de-
mand for them to sign the yellow
dog" contract was made on the very
day that the federal trade commission
report on the activities of the power
trust in the state of Washington was
made public.
Board Employees Utilities Attorney
! As further evidence that the power
trust is behind the move to break the
union on the Pacific coast, the teach
ers say that E. Shorrock, president
of the Seattle school board, after be-
ing convinced that the teachers would
| fight the yellow dog" contract to the
bitter end, declared that the board
would be forced to employ a special
attorney of its own, and that the
board thereupon employed Otto B.
Rupp, attorney for the Puget Sound
Power and Light Company.
The teachers obtained temporary
restraining order in lower court, but
the Judge refused to make the order
permanent upon hearing a few days
later. The teachers then took the case
to the state supreme court, where it
will be heard in July.
| The convention instructed the of
Ulcers to carry the case to the United
States supreme court, if found neces-
sary, and to designate representa-
tive to be present at the next session
of the Washington state Legislature
to press for passage bill providing
for a teachers tenure law. The bill
will provide for protection of teachers
in that they can not be discharged
except for cause and then only after
a fair and impartial trial, the only
causes recognized to be inefficiency
or moral turpitude. AS further step
extraordinary efforts will be put forth
to elect friends of organized labor
to the Seattle school board.
The teachers of Seattle are working
under the yellow dog" contract sys-
tenn pending settlement of the dispute
by the courts.
Teachers Spirit Warmly Praised
"The teachers of Seattle have dis
played splendid solidarity and 10y
alty," said Mrs. Florence C. Hanson
general secretary treasurer, to Inter
national Labor News Service. "We
never have had similar display OF
courageous self-sacrifice and altru
ISM"
John P. Frey, secretary of the met
all trades department of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, who attended

sentative of President William Green
spoke at length on the subject of ths
yellow dog" contract and how t.
meet it by legislative enactment.

International Labor News Service
Chicago.-The misuse of the injunc-
ton writ in labor disputes, the ''yel-
low dog" contract, academic freedom
and tenure of teaching personnel
were the major subjects consider
by the 1928 convention of the Amer
lean Federation Of Teachers, held at
the Congress Hotel in this city.
Discussion and action on the ''yel-
low dog" contract revolved around a
dispute and court action resulting
from the Seattle (Wash.) School
Board compelling the teaching force
of that city to sign yellow dog" con-
tracts last May, one point in these
contracts providing for REIMBURSEMENT
of membership in the union.
Power Interest Fight Teachers
The Teachers Federation charges
the educational authorities of the
state of Washington and the city OF
Seattle with being in league with the
power trust and that the attempt to
break up the teachers union on the
Pacific coast was inspired by agents
of the power trust, whose west coast
headquarters are said to be located in
Seattle.
The teachers say that they are be.
ing punished because they refused to
lend themselves to the dissemination
of power trust propaganda literature
sent to public schools and educationa
institutions throughout the state o.

No one outside the smuggling ring
knows who receives the $1,000 for

case would pay operating expenses of
