CITY CAB FARE
MAY Be RAISED
BY ORDINANCES
Rates Doubled in Proposed
Acts to Be Voted On
by Council.

Taxicab rides will be in the luxury
class and cab patrons will be forced
to pay rates approximately double
those paid now for trips longer than
one mile. If city councilmen act
favoTably Monday night on two
pending ordinances.
The ordinances. known as General
Ordinances NO. 4 and 5, would bar
flat rates, such as charged by most
companies at present, requiring that
all rates be on a mileage basis.
AS an example, under the pro-
posed ordinances. taxi firms would
be required 70 charge 80 cents for
the trip from Washington and ILL
nois streets 70 Twentieth and ILL
nois streets, instead of Is cents as
charged at present by some firms.
Where one company now charges
As cents for the trip from Me-
ridian and washington to Thirty
eighth street and College avenue,
the proposed ordinance would re-
quire a charge of S1.35.
Drivers Plan Fight
Drivers of several companies, fear
ing the new rates will cause O
sharp decrease Of patronage, are
reported TO be planning vigorous
opposition when the measures are
up for passage at city council meet
ing Monday night.
General Ordinance No. 4 makes
it unlawful for taxicab lines to
charge, within city limits, a fare
of less than the following schedule:
First mile, Is cents; each two
thirds mile additions. 10 cents; Tor
each three minutes of accumulated
waiting time, 10 cents.
Waiting Time Costly
The other ordinance provides for
providing badges to licensed taxi
drivers, fixes license fees at IS cents
each, and then amends Section q,
General Ordinance No. %, of 1881.
This amendment prohibits charg-
ing more than rates posted on each
cab. defines waits for which charges
may be made, provides receipts
must be given passengers, upon de
mand. and bans a fiat or zone rate
basis for taxicab fares.
Waiting time" it provides, shall
include the time when the taxicab
is not in motion, beginning with
arrival at the place to which it has
been called. or the time consumed
while standing at the direction of
the passenger, but no charge shall
be made for time lost for inefi-
cheney of the taxicab or the opera
tor, or time consumed by premature

NEW CASTLE. Pa. (F.PO Lead
ing a group of so strikebreakers to
work at midnight, Mayor Charles
B. Mayne of New Castle tried to
break the strike which has tied up
the johnson Bronze Works since
late May.
The strikers are out 100 per cent
for the abolition of the speedup,
for higher wages and union recog-
milton. The low wage policy Of the
company has earned for it the nick
name of the Penny Arcade" by the
workers.
Strikebreakers have been brought
in and housed at a hotel few
blocks from the plant. Mayor
Mayne's action occurred after a
fight during which two strikebreak-
ers were severely beaten and many
leaped into the river to escape the
wrath of the strikers.
Business conditions in the city
continue to reflect a downward
trend. The two tin mills are on
three-day week schedule. The
steel plant, which has three blast
furnaces, has not been used since
June, 1880. The Lehigh Co. cement
plant closed in early Spring after
only six weeks Of operation. The
Universal Sanitary Pottery Co. laid
off IS per cent of its employees, The
railroad shops continue to lay off
crews and shopmen. The Pennsyl-
vania Engineering Co.'S plant is
completely shut down after running
for a few weeks with a handful Of
men. Relief lists grow.

Annual Report
Rv . Worker Correspondent

BRIDGEPORT. Conn. - Faced
with . growing demand for sde-
quste relief, Jasper McLevy. 80
cialist" Mayor Of Bridgeport, re-
turned from the Detroit Socialist
Party convention Monday. deliv-
cred his first annual message to
the City Council, offered nothing
to the iobless, mentioned not one
of his election promises. and held
out the prospect Of future heavy
taxes for the small home owners.
Not one ray Of hope for Bridge
port workers is contained in Nc
Levy's six-page report, not one in
dication that the Socialist" adj
ministration will lift finger to
improve the conditions of the
workers and jobless. On the con-
trary, higher taxes on the over
burdened small home owners is
held out in that part of his mes
sage in which McLevy praises Tax
Collector Challenger for his eff
cient" work and cries about the
pIeSe1b uellClG VI bNEI Hlbb,bVu.
The deficit has been made larger
by the fragrant graft and corrup-
ton in the many city departments,
notably in the Welfare Depart
ment.
McLevy made no reference to
the present public investigation
being made into the misappropria-
ton Of funds by the welfare heads
and the Board Of Education.
When McLevy finished his re-
port there was not even a hand
clap from the socialist" alder
men or his supporters among the
visitors.
The stony silence which greeted
McLevy's report will be turned
into a roar of anger when the
workers fully realize that McLevy
and his Socialist" administration
is cooperating with the bosses
and the munition manufacturers,
carrying out their program of
hunger against the working class.

"employe representation associa-
ton" that they have nothing to do
with these questions.
Outlaw Strikes
Secondly, the employees must, of
course, sign away all right to strike
in the agreement" Of the company
union, The company union" has
no right to strike to remedy griev-
ances or enforce demands, and has
no say whatever in the hiring or
discharge Of employees.
Thirdly, the agreement" provides
vicious system of compulsory ar
bitration" What is the method of
arbitration" of wages and working
conditions? 1t is strikingly similar
to the agreement just signed by
William Green in his company
union agreement with the Sinclair
Oil Co.:
Matters concerning which the
Council the Workmen's COunciD
has not been able To make salts
factory adjustment with the Cen
eral Superintendent may be dis
cussed with the President Of the
Company"
If an agreement cannot he
reached here, "A representative or
alternate (of the Workmen's
COuncil) shall have the further
right to appeal to the Secretary
Of the State Department of Labor
or the Secretary of Labor Of the
United States the findings
and recommendation Of said Sec
rotary of the State Department
Of Labor or said Secretary Of La
Dor Of the United States shall
be final and binding"
Thus we see that the company
union is a fascist tnion, a union
closely bound up with the strike
breaking government machinery as
well as dominated by the company
which brings the government di-
rectly into the union" ss the final
authority.

In the auto industry President
Roosevelt personally engineered the

Federation of Labor leaders and the
auto msgnates which gave the com
pany unions in the auto industry
official government sanction, and
which rapidly stimulated their
growth. The government is now
trying to do the same thing in the
steel industry. In the auto industry,
the government prevented strike,
kept the auto workers under the
speed up, low wages, which they
were rebelling against, and pro-
NOTED the company union in order
to insure that the defeat of the
workers would be made permanent.

The McKeesport sale was nego-
tiated in a legal manner, but when
the constables returned to Pitts
burgh, the sheriff's Office decided
it was illegal. Accordingly another
sale was posted for May %.
On that date, due to the short

the unemployed could be mustered,
and when they appeared on the
scene they we're pounced on by
several carloads of deputies, who
beat them all severely and arrested
