conventions to abolish all sub-district
officials who to them appear perfect
parasites.
In this situation of chaos, confusion,
and betrayal, the corrupt officials in
a last effort to stem the tide of OPP
position are resorting to an intensi-
fication of their celebrated policy of
expulsions. To the many victims of
the past have been added those who
signed the special convention call for
Belleville, May 10Th, some having been
expelled for 90 years.
However, in this respect also the
machine power is broken down. 1t
has become a myth. Those cited for
expulsion refused to appear before
the district court, and the following
answer made by the old fighter of
Belleville, Luke Coffey to this sum-
mons is typical.

| Gentlemen:
Received your document. 1t ap-
pears to me that your henchmen and
stoolpigeons of local 1888 would pro-
coed along the line of the constitution
and prefer charges against me in my
local union.
Il realize that appearing before this
board would be like going to law with
the devil and holding court in hell"
The task of the Save-the- Union
movement is made so much more
difficult by this terrible wreckage of
the once so proud backbone of the
United Mine Workers of America.
Knowing however, that it presents the
only remedy for this dismal situation
of chaos, confusion, and betrayal it is
proceeding undaunted to perform its
task.

year ago.
Some of the leading railroads, how
ever, show decided change for the
worse, the percentage of bad order
locomotives mounting to unwarranted
figures. This is especially noticeable
in the New York Central system and
the Baltimore & Ohio figures.
To be in good shape railroads should
have not more than 1870 of their To-
comotives and 40 of their freight
cars on the sick list. The non-union
Pennsylvania reports 1910 of its
engines and $3.50 of its freight cars
in need of repair.
WASHINGTON, (FP) May 28.-
Employees who demanded a wage adj
justment from the Kansas City, Mexi-
co & Orient Railroad and whose claim
was put up to the first advisory
board" ever appointed under the
terms of the Watson-Parker rail
labor mediation law, have lost out.
The special board, appointed by Presi-
dent Coolidge, has reported that the
slight raise offered by the company
is all that the road can now afford
to pay. For a substantial raise in
keeping with the increased cost of
living since their pay was last adj
justed, the employees are expected to
''wait and hope"
The White House attitude on this
decision is that if the workers are not
satisfied with a microscopic increase
in pay, there is not much use in try
ing to please them in the future.

Railway Workers SMfeyLQy-OfS

CHICAGO, May 24.-The down.
ward trend of railroad employment
continued in February, according to
the interstate commerce commission.
Its monthly report shows that in one
year, more than 10000 railroad work
ers lost their jobs and 5,184 who
were on the payrolls in 1928 have
been forced to look elsewhere for a
livelihood.
Chart Shows Cuts.
The railroad wage total for Febru-
airy was $221,813,084, compared with
S228, III, $40 in February 1927. The
decline of $50 in wages is almost
exactly equal to the decline of 2.79o
in total railway revenue. Wages are
absorbing about the same proportion
of the railroad dollar as a year ago.
The average railroad wage for Feb
ruary was S138 compared with $133
in February 1927, the difference be-
ing largely accounted for by the day
added by leap year. For workers paid
on an hourly basis the monthly aver
ages were $131 this year and $125 in
February 1927.
The report contains chart tracing
the changes since 1916 in the wages
of freight engineers, firemen, con-
ductors and brakemen as a group per
1000 ton-miles of freight handled
This chart shows graphically how the
railroads have cut the wage cost of
traffic in spite of the wage rates
these employees have been able to
maintain.
Shopmen Hit.
Reductions in force compared with
a year ago as usual bore down mos
heavily ON the shopmen their NUM-
hers having been reduced 42,723 to q
level 116,423 short Of February 1923
IN number Of train and engine men
has been reduced 23,560 to a Level
36l57 below February 1928. Reduc-
tions in other departments compared
with February 1927 are maintenance
OF way cut 24,064, clerks 1859 and
miscellaneous employees in the trans
portation department 10752.
Operating statistics issued by the
commission indicate that the lay-offs
in the maintenance Of equipment de-
partment have not been made at the
expense of the cars and locomotives
Apparently the remaining employees
are speeded up. In February $3.50
of the freight cars were reported in
bad order compared with 5.7h in
February 1927. The percentage Of To-

So this is Buffalo! this the rich,

The wreckage on this scrap-pile
was once alive. Before the profit
system smashed them, they were

in the Great Lakes chain, it would
be possible to replace Buffalo by a
beautiful city, filled with healthy,
happy workers and their families.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, March %
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh soon
will fly new monoplane duplicat-
ing in essential respects the Spirit
of st. Louis. In this plane he will
be able to carry four passengers
with far greater degree of visibil-
ity than his famous trans Atlantic
plane permits.
Colonel Lindbergh will be the first
to testify his new plane, now near
ing completion here He was the
first and only man to pilot the Spirit
Of st. Louis. One should not think
him foolhardy in this. He is a
scientist and wishtes to learn first
hand what to expect from a flying
machine
Made for Night Trips
In flying his new plane the
Colonel also will test several new
features embodied in it. Primarily
the plane is built for night flying.
That is, it is SO equipped that Col
onel Lindhergh can use it for long
night trips.
Three types of lights have been
provided for this purpose. First,
ordinary running lights have been
installed. These warn any other
planes in the air of the presence
of this particular ship.
Second, landing lights are hidden
in the leading edge of the wing near
the tips. Controls from the pilots
cabin permit these to be opened
when landing at night.
When lighted they throw a strong
light on the field ahead and permit
the plane to advance much in the
manner of an automobile travelling
a well-lighted highway at night
Flares Add Safety
Third, magnesium flares have
been installed. These are, located
in the floor of the fusilage about
midway between the nose and tail.
Colonel Lindbergh controls the re-
lease Of these from his place for
ward
The value of these flares may be
visualized readily. Suppose the Col
onel were flying at night and wished
to land at some spot where no lights
were provided.
BY releasing one of these flares
at, say, a 5,000-foot elevation, the
light would spread brilliantly over
an area of ten square miles. These
lights descend beneath parachutes.
which open automatically when the
mare drops from the plane.
In addition to these lights, other
new developments embodies in thie

This latter instruments reveals
again how carefully Colonel Lind
bergh plans his flights. Airmen
have been known to lose their sense
of equilibrium in fight under some
conditions, such as flying in a storm.
By glancing at this instrument

can note Immediately how many
degrees the nose Of his plane is

One thought should be made
clear: Colonel Lindbergh did not
desire a racing plane. He wanted
closed, cabin type plane with a
longer cruising radius than is ordi-
narily available. He added gasoline
tankage foT this purpose, and that
of course increased the weight OF
the plane.
Because of the added weight,
more wing area was demanded.
