BANK MERGER IS CONSIDERED BI3
 STROKE. GENUS
NEW YORK NOW HAS LARGEST BANK IN WORLD: MERGER
 WAS A SURPRISE

NEW YORK, Sept, 25, (P)-The trend towards centralized banking systems in the United States prot forth it's largest combination when the National City Bank announced a merger with the Corn Exchange Bank giving New York the greatest bank in the world with resources of about $2,650,O0O,00O.
 The merger is considered a mas ter stroke of organizing genius on the part of Charles E. Mitchell, chairman of the board of the Nat ional City Bank, who announced the merger
 The consolidation places the Ma tional City Bank ahead of England banks as far as total resources are concerned. The largest bank in the world heretofore has been the Mid land Bank of London which has re- sources of about $2,5O0,000 000 The Midland Bank still holds lead in deposits with S1,820,2702O6 com pared with the sum of $1,760 100000 for the American banks.
 The merger of these two banks came as a surprise to Wall Street altho some important development was expected. Shares of National City have been rising steadily and sold at $500 each. Close on the heels of the merger came the news that the Bank of Manhatten Co.,, will split it's stock on five for one basis

CHARGE BOLIVIA
KILLED PRISONER
Paraguay Hats More
War Exchanges

ROSARIO, Argentina, Feb. 28.-
Paraguay refuses to proceed with
the exchange of prisoners with
Bolivia, which were taken by each
side in the Chaco conflict during
December, on the grounds that one
Paraguayan soldier, named Mar
tinez, was taken prisoner by Boil
Wan troops, but does not appear
among those to be exchanged. 1t is
intimated that Paraguay believes
Martinez was killed after capture
and while a prisoner.
The Bolivian general, Carlos
Gumucio, who participated in the
December fight in the Chaco, &C
cuses Paraguay of obstruction of the
exchange, saying that Bolivia has
no such Paraguayan soldier captive
as Martineg. Gumucio has arrived
here to carry out the exchange
either here or in Corrientes, as
Bolivia declines to make the ex-
change at Formosa, because of the
predominant Paraguayan popula-
ton in that Argentine town.
David E. Kaufman, U. S. Minister
to Bolivia, announced his resigna-
ton will be handed in automatically
at the close of President Coolidge's
term of office. Kaufman made the
announcement on return fro m
Bolivia aboard the Southern Cross.

"The Broken Chain" OPENS
at Maxim Elliott Theatre

ANYONE interested in viewing
life among Chasidic Jews, a fan
atical set of religious worshippers,
~ find "The Broken Chain," by
William j. Perlman, now at the
Maxine Elliott Theatre, an unusu-
ally fine play, while others will
claim that it is very dull. There is
one thing, however, that everyone
can agree upon. That is, the play
is well written and acted by large
cast headed by Frank McGlynn, who
plays the part of Reb Vclvele Slom-
ner.
The play will not have a yer,
broad appeal, due to the fact that i.
is rather odd, and to certain e,,-
tent severe in its Interpretation OF
the Jewish religion.
Reb Slomner, the rabbi, is shocked
when his son, instead of following
in his footsteps, decided to become
a prizefighter. Then his grief is in
tensified when his married daughtee
leaves her husband to live with an
other man. In his sons place as a
rabbinical student, Slomner places
Gabriel, who had married his daugh-
ter. When the girl leaves him to
live with boy she loves the old
rabbi considers his daughter dead,
according t" Jewish custom. Re-
ligious ! of the rabbi then
scheme move him from the
synagogue, pointing to his daugh-
ter's actions for their justification.
However. they do not succeed, for
the rabbi performs miracle" and
saves his job. He then forgives his
daughter and everybody is happy.
This stupid and weak ending to the
play is absolutely unjustIfied and
prevents it from being considered as
truthful portrayal of group of
exceptionally religious people. After
being courageous enough to write
two and half acts in logical and
sane manner, Mr.. Perlman appa-
rently got cold feet and decided to
have things turn out in the usually
expected manner of happy ending.
While he succeeded in his purpose,
he has done his play a great deal
of f~-,n.
In addition to Mr.. McGlynn, other
members of Tie cast include Edgar
Barrier, Mary Fowler and Sarah
Biala.

by Worker Correspondent

by Worker Correspondent
CHICAGO, Ill. (By Mail).-In a
scramble for more and more profits,
the Super-Maid Aluminium Kitchen
Utensil Co. is waging a war on or.
ganized workers. When the officials
of this company, said to be con-
trolled by the family of Andrew Mel
lon, Secretary of the Treasury, found
out that over 100 of the slaves Of
the Super Maid plant were organ
lied, they were all locked out. This
company had forced rotten condi-
tions on the workers, and wanted no
union around to better their condi-
tions and thus cut down the millions
in profits, even tho the men We're
organized into the Metal Polishers'
Union, whose president and secre-
tary-treasurer is regular conserv-
ative of the A. F. of L. and sup
porter of the bureaucracy which is
always ready to sell the union men
out. i
The company knew that they
would have to pay a price to the la
Dor takers, and did not want to pay
out any money if they could help it,
so they resorted to the method oil
force against the union rather than
the other method of greasing the la
Dor takers palms.
The wage scale is far below the
union scale, wages being as low as|
S14 week. The bonus system, by
which the worker is robbed of nearly
half of his earnings and is speededl
up to the limit, is in force IN the
Super-Maid plants.
The company has hired a large
number of operatives from detective
agencies to carry out stool-pigeon
work, and attempt to frame up union
members.

PRODUCTION of cutting machines and
CHECKERS, will begin to feel the whip

the operators are gradually being
undermined because of the admin

temporary operators to work in the
shops during the season and then
throwing them into the street in
stead of taking them into the union
and having control over them. Even
the trainers are already confronted

tain the standard guaranteed by the
agreement. Under the guidance of
progressive committees the trainers
could be made to realize their fra
ternal duties and solidarity and
would join hands over the heads of
the clique with the rest of the work
ers in decisive struggle against
the bankrupt administration.
The election of left wing section
committees would be a warning to
the manufacturers to keep their
hands off our union, and would
serve as a check against the admin
istration if the negotiations with
the employers are not to end in the
destruction of the union.

AUTOCRAT RULES
SOCIALIST CITY
GARBAGE PLANT
Workers Fired If They
Make Any Complaint
by a Worker Correspondent

10y WORKER correspondent
MILWAUKEE,, Wis. (By MaiD.
The city Of Milwaukee is going to
switch the basis of pay Of the work
men at the garbage disposal plant
from an hourly to a monthly basis.
Conditions in this garbage disposal
plant of the municipal government,
controlled by Socialists" are mis-
cradle. Although the time cards of
the workers carry a statement that
workers are asked to make any COM
plants to the foreman, in case OF
dissatisfaction, if you dare to make
any complaint you are either fired
outright or you are laid off for five
or ten days.
One man complained to the time.
keeper about the rotten conditions
and was instantly laid off for five
days. He was told that this was
done because he complained to the
timekeeper instead of to the fore
man, but this was a lie, as you are
laid off even if you complain to the
foreman.
Lucky to Choke.
One of the workers at the gar
bage plant was nearly overcome by
smoke and fumes, due to a defect in
the apparatus, and when he reported
it to the superintendent, L. l.. Hanni-
fan, the super snapped at him,

Hannifan says that he extects

the miserable wages paid the slaves
at the plant.
Kannifan has instituted a discip-
line as strict as army discipline, and

Discipline must be rigid" says

work of enslaving the workers at
the municipal garbage disposal
plant of the socialist" controlled
government of Milwaukee.
The men knew nothing of tire
change from the hourly pay basis
to the monthly basis until after it
was in effect. The garbage had,

considered worth being informeu

tons is to be made.
