The spectacle of the govern

tanks, tear-gas. and cavalry has
been unmatched in our history.
1T is humiliating to American

The fact that small group of

public property which they had
occupied seems to us no justifica-
ton for calltms out armed forces.

BOMB
Confession in Mooney Case
Reporters Work

New York City (ILNS)-Editor
and Publisher, weekly magazine for
newspaper workers, this week pub
lished an account of the method used
in developing the Callicotte confes-
sion of placing the bomb for which
Mooney and Billings were sentenced.
1t was the work of newspaper men.
Editor and Publishers account fol-

"The story of how the Portland

story Of the San Francisco Prepared
ness Parade bombing for more than
three months before publication of the
Oregonian's copyrighted story on this
phase of the Mooney Billings case has
been disclosed by Palmer Hoyt, execu-
tive news editor of the Oregonian.
"Callicotte first confessed his part
in the bombings on or about June TO-
Mr.. Hoyt relates. The confession
came on cross-examination by Edward
M. Miller, Oregonian Sunday editor
after Callicotte had submitted fic.
ton story which referred to the
bombing.
"Mr. Miller Immediately referred
the matter to Mr.. Hoyt, and the two
listened to Callicotte's story for sew.
eral hours. Next a criminal lawyer
was called, who cross-examined Cal
licotte for six hours and was unable
to trip the man in any major portion
of his story, Mr.. Hoyt writes.
Every possible effort was made b!
the Oregonian during recent months
to confirm the story, which would no
have been released September % ha'
it not been for Callicotte's decision t.
inform the police if the story was no
used.
"Mr. Hoyt describes Callicotte as Al

with news stories. Executives of tn

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-One of
the most powerful lobbies in the
United States has just been defeated

the destroyer class in navy yards will
not be revoked.
Secretary of the Navy Charles
Francis Adams announced this week
that the three destroyers, each to cost
approximately $4,5000,000, will be
built in United States navy yards at
Boston, New York and Philadelphia.
AS these ships are got under way

Old Age Pensions
"An old age pension system has
been established and maintained to
remove one of the worst fears of
old age, and each year it now pays
old age pensions to retired members
in excess of one and a half million
dollars. To the beneiciaries of the
deceased members each year it pays
half million dollars.
For those who are incapacitated
by age or disease it maintains home
and a sanatorium that is one of the
finest institutions of it's kind in the
world.
Unemployment Benefits
During the last two years of the
present panic, local unions of this
organization have paid in cash to un-
employed members $3,407,556 and
10000 members are working a five
day week to spread existing employ
ment.
eff one comparatively small group
of working men and women has ac-
complished this result through col

President Of International Typographical Union
Tells How High Wages and Short Hours Have
Been Secured for Organized Labor in Print
ing Industry.

Indianapolis, Ind.-The Importance
of joint agreements between organ
lied labor and employers to protect
working men and women and maintain
economic stability was stressed by
Charles P. Howard, president of the
international Typographical Union, in
radio address here on collective
Bargaining"
Typical Wage Agreement
Mr. Howard said, in part:
collective bargaining is thus not
only a process of joint negotiations,
but it is also device for securing
joint agreement. The substance of
that agreement deals not only with
wages and working conditions, but
also with such matters as appren-
ticeship, standards of craftsmanship,
and provision for the adjustment of
disputes by conciliation and arbitra-
tion. 1t creates in an industry stand
ard of performance and an orderly
process Of adjustment.
"Let us consider trade agree
ment as it has been developed by the
international Typographical Union.
The record of this organization in the
development of collective bargaining
and contractual relationship is out
standing A typical wage agreement
consists Of five parts:
1. The period that the agreement
| is to remain in effect.
| "2. Unit of hours established for
the work day and work week.
! "3. Wage rates for various classes
of employees.
"a. Conditions under which service
is to be performed.
"a. Conditions under which service
is to be performed.
"5. A joint agency composed OF rep
resentatives of the workers and the
employers to settle disputes arising
from ending the contract and differ.
ences respecting new agreement.
Organized Printers Achievements
"Let US see what has been achieved
by this method. I select the printing
industry.
"The International Typographical
Union is an organization composed OF
$4,000 men and women located In
1900 cities and towns in all sections
of the North American continent
These men and women produce the
newspaper you enjoy with your break,
fast and the books and magazines
which become the companions of youl
leisure hours.
During the eighty years this or
ganization has existed it has main
tanned peace in the industry and es
tablished many benefits for the en-
joyment and protection of its mem
bers.
! "It has maintained high wage
standards and regulated the hours o.
labor to give opportunity for recrea
tion and education.
Shorter Hours
"It was the first organization t.
establish the eight-hour day and th'

"In less than century it has es
tablished conditions that have in
