GRAIN MARKET
TURNS LOWER
IN DULL TRADE
All Months Drop Fractions
to a Cent; Routine
News IGNORED.
BY HARTMAN w. NICHOLS
United Press stan Correspo Rdent

CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-Grain prices
moved through comparatively narrow
limits yesterday in a dull session on
the Chicago Board of Trade. Bulges
ran into selling orders and fair sup
port met the minor breaks.
Prices finished near the bottom,
with wheat off q to as cent, corn y
to l cent lower. and oats unchanged
to p cent lower.
The larger shares of yesterdays
trading was of professional charac-
ter with the market paying little
attention to routine news and await
ing developments from Washington.
No rain Of consequence was re-
ported in the southwest overnight.
Winnipeg Remains Quiet
Export sales of around 300 900
bushels of ManitobaS were reported
at the seaboard. Winnipeg also was
quiet, with fair support meeting de-
clines, while Liverpool closed equal
to 3 to IL cents per bushel higher.
A fairly good domestic demand.
with local handlers reporting sales
of over 100000 bushels, aided tn.
corn trade. Country offerings again
were extremely small.
There was considerable talk about
imitation in the pits today in view
OF the governments huge budget
figure. The cash price for wheat
was l to Z cents higher. Receipts
were eight cars.
Winnipeg was featreless early,
with only moderate business re-
ported. The pit there was inclined
to take profits on long wheat and
await some incentive from the Chi
cago market.
Corn Holds Firm
Corn showed a slightly firmer
tone, with some buying regarded as
removing hedges against shipping
sales, the latter aggregating $4,000
bushels. Five thousand bushels
were booked to arrive. Cash prices
were l to IL cent higher, receipts
thirty cars.
Oats moved upward in a small
market, the buying regarded by
some traders as for investment p,Ir-
poses. Twenty thousand bushels
were sold to move out. The cash
price was unchanged to y cent
higher. Receipts were twenty-seven
cars in oats, rye none, and barley
twenty-six.

ST. LOUIS, MO- am a Pullman

Today am doing the work of 3
men. Ten years ago I was blowing
4 cars and today I am blowing 10

The conditions are going from
bad to WorSe-we are Speeded-up
and work days a week. I am
so tired when night comes, that
sometimes I can't go to my organ
ization and lodge meetings. Two
per cent of our wages each month
is taken out for insurance and 2
for old age pensions. If a worker
loses his job he never gets this
money back.
The Pullman employees were cut
10 per cent 3 years ago. The fore
men and skilled mechanics have
gotten theirs back, but us poor
blowers and cleaners, haven't got
ten thing back as yet. Now with
the high cost of living, we ought to
get 10 per cent increase. How are
we ever going to get better condi-
tons unless we organize?

CHICAGO. - The Yellow Cab
Company of Chicago, one of the
most vicious exploiters of labor, has
everything down to perfection when
it comes to robbing the workers.
This multi-milion dollar concern has
an abundance Of high-priced direc-
tors who regale in splendor and lux
ury, while the cab drivers slave II
to IA and in many instances, Is
hours day for as low as to 10
dollars week. The "cabbieS' en-
ployed by the yellow Cab Company,
enjoy no regular wages, a commits
sion of 371a per cent of the fares
are the remuneration given the
drivers a nd manifold are tn e
schemes this robber outfit employ
to still further chisel down the mis-
cradle pay.
Each cab driver must daily bring
in minimum of $7,l5 for total
mileage, rain or shine, summer or
winter, this is an unbreakable rule,
and with the thousands of cabs
playing the streets of Chicago this
in many instances becomes a prac-
teal impossibility. If for any rea-
son this amount is not brought in,
the driver is deprived of work the
next day, and 5 per cent of that
weeks wages is automatically de-
Quoted, to still further fatten the
salaries of the directors, and fill the
Golfers of this Wall Street controlled
corporation. The impossibility Of
bringing in $715 total mileage
daily can best be illustrated by the
following: If a driver should be
fortunate, in many instances, I'M
fortunate to get a trip, say of 20
miles out to a suburb, this at first
glance would indicate lucky break,
but a closer analysis will prove
otherwise. For the question of dead
mileage Immediately arises when
the fare leaves the cab. The problem
of getting a fare back to the city is
the drivers, and late at night to get
somebody from a suburb to go back
to the city is by no means easy.
Nevertheless when the cab driver
checks in, Is cents a mile travelled
must be accounted for-one of the
many nefarious schemes used to cut
the wages. All gasoline used by the

I was a waiter aboard the Moro
Castle when it burned. I've been
reading a lot of stuff in the papers
about the Reds burning the ship
and about the cowardice and inef-
ficiency of the crew. I'm writing
this letter in order that workers
can know what conditions are
aboard these boats.
I made four trips aboard the
Moro Castle and before that I
worked on other boats, The Ward
Line had hard job getting men
to sign up because the MORO
Castle had a reputation as slave
ship. I took the job because I
needed the money and it was all I
could get. My salary was $40 a
month.
We were called from our hunks
in the glory hole at $50 am. We
went Immediately to the dining
room for scrub-out, that is, general
cleanup of the dining room and
the surrounding alley-ways. Then
we set the tables for the passen-
gers breakfast We worked in the
dining room until T. then we had
half-hour in which to wash our
selves and dress and eat our own
breakfast The glory hole where
the crew, the stewards and the
walters had their sleeping quarters
had only one steward to take care
of it, and, since we never had time
to clean, it was always pretty dirty.
We also had to use this half-hour
to lay out butter, water, napkins,
ETC., on the passengers tables so
breakfast could begin at 7:30 sharp.
