Anrcred By Coercion Talk
One business man with wide con-
acts in the industrial world here told
ne. I'VE are little annoyed because
We as employers are charged with
coercing employees from joining
unions. yet any outside agitator can
rome in here and coerce with a lead
pipe men who really want to dork."
Chairman Abner E. Larned Of the
regional labor board under MIRA says
his board has helped settle 80 strikes
hereabouts since MIRA. Most of these
involved alleged discrimination
against men who joined a union and
we're fired.
These cases are hard to judge.
L,.rned told me of one case where
eight union men were fired at one
plant. Yet the plant proved from its
records that $4,000 men had been laid
1T at the same time. So 1t was pretty
hard to prove discrimination against
the eight union men.
No Complaint on Ford
I'VE have found no company which
has refused to live up to the labor
provisions Of the code. and we have
not had q single complaint Of any
Kind against Henry Ford" Larned told
ne. Before you criticize MIRA, 60

European governments have one

they exact huge sums annually for the

various Is the nations. ranging from
Russia where the manufacture and
yale Of liquor Is concentrated entirely
In the hands Of the state, to Belgium.
where the state sells no liquor but
capitali1es on q high excise duty.
Britain has q combination OF the
two systems, for while she extracts
heavy revenues from licenses for pro-
1llcers and dealers and from excise
xnd customs duties, she has small
experiment In state purchase and
management Of the liquor trade.
While the profit to the exchequer
Vt the latter ran to $246, 900 in 1922.

"The Federal excise tax on

and the Federal gas tax should

Pointing out that the highway

that every penny contributed to
