STOCKS IRREGULAR
AS VOLUME LAGS
Selling Appears in Metals
and 0iIs-Some Spe-
cialties Firm.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,

Associated Press FINANCIAL Writer.
NEW YORK, April "a. Spotty
prices prevailed in quiet stock trading
today. Selling appeared in some of
the oils and metals. Industrials and
rail leaders were narrowly mixed.
Some specialties were firm. Coca
Cola rose more than 2. General Mo-
tors was fractionally higher and Con-
solidated Gas ruled unchanged, United
States Smelling lost 3 points. Amer
lean Telephone, United States Steel
and Socony Vacuum eased moderately.
The close was irregular. Transfers
Appropriated 1.25000O shares.
Active specialties, both common and
preferred shares, up l to around 4
in the forenoon. included those of
Manati Sugar, Budd Manufacturing,
Devoe Reynolds, Madison Silk. Twin
City Rapid Transit and Philadelphia
Rapid Transit. Some of the alco-
hols were bit firmer, as were Gen.
eneral Motors and International
Nickel. Among others. down slightly
to around a point, were American
Telephone, Chrysler, United States
Steel. Standard Oils of California
and New Jersey, Santa Fe, New York
Central, Pathe a. Columbian Car
bon. Auburn and Armour of Illinois
preferred. The utilities were mar
row. United States Smelling lost
about 2 points and most of the other
metals were little lower.
On the whole there was not a great
deal OF bearishness noticeable in the
majority Of commission houses. but
traders apparently were in no rush
to expand commitments in most cate
gories.
The silver contingent was somewhat
gloomier than usual and the sharp de-
cline Of silver futures was said to have
reflected the dWindling hopes for
mandatory reconciliation legislation
at this session. The test vote on the
Mcleod bill for the payment of de-
posits in closed banks also did not
help the temper Of the inflationfsts.
Labor troubles still were considered
among the retarding market infiu-
ences, although the situation in the
automobile field did not seem to be
greatly disturbing the leaders of this
industry. In some quarters it was
felt that motor labor may have
missed the boat" in so far as this
season is concerned. Possibilities of
growing strikes in the oil sector we're
attracting some attention.

The rank and file delegates, on the
other hand, who numbered %, with
voting strength on specific issues
that was even greater, waged a
struggle against both groups of mis-
leaders, exposed the strikebreaking
activities of the Green Collins ma
chine and of the Auto Labor Board,
and brought in a proposal (Which
Collins succeeded in killing without
bringing it to a vote) for one indus
trial union to unite the rank and
file of all unions.
The war of the scoundrels resulted
in a victory for the Collins clique,
Collins being made dictator over the
auto locals, with National EXecu-

Immediately began working for a
split, posing as defenders Of the rank

leaders. Within a few weeks the
secession of the Oldsmobile and
Hudson locals was an accomplished
fact. At the same time the move

proportions that on Aug. the De-

Who is this new champion" of the
rank and file?
Greer, like Byrd, was until recent
months entirely unknown in the
labor movement. He was, however,
not unknown to the federal govern
ment Of whose Intelligence Service
he was member during the World
War.
Greer entered the labor movement
in a rather unusual way. The Aug. 4
issue of the Auto Workers News,
organ of the Auto Workers Union,
publishes a photostatic copy of a
leaflet issued by the company union
at the Hudson plant, the Hudson
Industrial Association, dated Sep
TENDER 20, 1888, at time when it
was in process of formation. The
leaflet is signed by three men who
were selected by the company to be
the chief organizers of the company
union. The first name is that of
Arthur E. Greer.

sentatives to the company union

the thing you did then did
much to strengthen your standing
as a permanent factor in the de-
velopment Of the conception of the
motion pictres as an educational
force in the U. S." He emphasized
the fact that, 1.-THE motion picture
was as real as the newspaper or as
the pulpit-as real probably, as the
pulpit used to be when religion had
a more definite hold on the people.
Now is your time to emphasis that
spirit and attitude. Instead Of SIM.

amusement to the people. you want
also to convey to them ideas that

Secretary Lane praised the gath
ering of movie people and church
men for being conscious Of their
own opportunities and conscious. of.
their own responsibilities and ex-
tremely anxious that they shall be
Of service to the country" His role,
he explained, was to give direc-
ton" to the enterprise with which
the movie people we're rallying to
the needs of the country" On be-
half of the Wall st. controlled U. S.
government, he was "awfully appre-
ciative" that they have agreed to
give 50 Americaniza ton pictures

thread Of American spirit through

that it shall be regarded upon

Americans who want to feel a bit

JACKSON is one of thousands of
y A. F. of L. men found all over
the country. Militant as hell dur
ing their youth, they are isolated
now and kicked into scrap heaps by
false leadership. Some of them
washed their hands of the whole
matter of trade unionism. Their
personal integrity meant too much
to them. But like Jackson they are
being Strengthened out. Most of
them are steel punches lying in the
dusty corner. The hammer of the
depression is driving them in the
right direction. They have not lost
their old fearlessless.
Jackson is aroused about condi-
tons on the road Contractors hire
only Democrats. Burleson, the
Democratic boss, called in the vii
lage the Porker, is having roads
built. around his property to jack up
the price of his land. If such roads
were not being built, Jackson would
be out of work. Nevertheless it is
corruption; he is outspoken about
it.
A number of times we talk to
Jackson in his shack. He forgets
about food and sleep. Conditions
on the road are such as to war
rant strike. We go out of the
kitchen onto Tomahawk Road which
runs through the village. We stand
before the church. Soon the sun
comes up. There are the angels on
the church all alike as peas, their
wings like split pods.

BY BEN FIELD

WHEN you ask Jackson where he
W was born, he'll tell you in Peeks-
kill Hollow from hole in the
ground like grasshopper's egg.
When he was Is he left the farm.
Worked in yeast plant and an
iron foundry. An explosion wrecked
the foundry. His leg was almost
torn from the socket. He was laid
up for two years. Limps around
now with a stick. He's done every
thing from nightwatching to work
ing on the road.
All winter long he's worked on
the road. Last fall he shovelled
tons of dead leaves. It's hard for
him to manage rake or shovel.
Relief's been cut off. Road work S
been slashed from 81 to $500. And
when it rains you're out of luck.
Then Jackson sits in the post
office on box and tells stories from
Rabelais, Bocaccio, Heptameron. Or
he talks politics, and refers to Debs,
Henry George, and Ingersol. He
reads the World Telegram. But he'll
admit the liberals and socialists are
old ladies.
He's bitter against the system.
Look at Red" he says. Red bought
himself Mack truck. He lost his
job when half his installments were
paid up. The agent came down and
took the truck away. Then one
night Red broke into the garage and
ran away with the truck. They got
him and slammed him into the
"goosehouse." There was such an
cutlery that the Democratic politi-
clans patched up the matter and
had Red released. But the trucks
his no longer. And he needs it to
earn living. As for himself, he
used to make his $50 week in the
foundry.

self present, vote of confidence in
the Board was unanimously carried.
This was the famous conference
that "outlawed" strikes-to be fol-
lowed eight days later by the big
gest of the automobile strikes when
the rank and file in Cleveland, st.
Louis and Tarrytown acted.
THE first public admission that
L Roosevelt's new course in social
engineering was laundering was
made by President Green in a state
ment occasioned by the Fisher Body

have been inundated and coerced
into joining company unions.
