the game to seek advice out

Vancouver Mayor
Raps Logging Pay

Vancouver (ILNS)-Sanctioning a
tag day for the benefit Of the striking
loggers of British Columbia, Mayor
L. D. Taylor said employers were
taking advantage Of the unemployed
relief situation to get work done dis
gracefully cheap. "It is merely rack
eteering on the part Of the Logging
Association, and the sooner it is stop
ped the BETTER" he said.
A few weeks ago the organ Of the
lumber trade was boasting that Brit
ish Columbia exports of lumber had
attained record figures. Before the
strike many loggers were making as
low as $1.85 a day, out of which they
had to pay $1.10 for board. City
authorities are annoyed because sc
many loggers, after working weeks
or months in the lumber camps, re-
turned with net earnings so small
that they had to appeal for relief al
most at once.

URGES OUTLAW OF
COMPANY UNIONS

Washington.-Joseph B. Eastman,
transportation co-ordinator, does not
mince his words when it comes to de-
manding the abolition by law Of the
notorious company union which has
been and is being used by many rail-
road executives to prevent the effect
i've organization of railroad employees
into bona fde trade unions.
In his proposed bill for the creation
of a national board of adjustment for
the compulsory settlement of railroad
labor disputes, Mr.. Eastman took the
position that the company union pro-
visions of the emergency railroad
transportation act should be placed
on a permanent basis. He said the
provisions made it unlawful for any
railroad to:
81. Deny or in any way question
the right Of it's employees to join the
labor organization of their choice.
"2. Interfere in any way with the
organization of it's employees.
"3. Use it's funds in maintaining So
called company unions.
"a. Influence or coerce it's en-
ployes in an effort to induce them
to Join or to remain members of such
company unions.
"5. Require any person seeking
employment to sign contract or
agreement promising to join or not
to join a labor organization. And it
such a contract has been enforced, the
railroad is required to notify its en-
ployes by an appropriate order that
said contract has been discarded and
is no longer binding on them in any
way"
"That the principle underlying
these provisions is sound is, be-
lieve. hardly open to question:" said
Mr.. Eastman. cit means only that
railroad arrangements must keep
their hands off, so far as labor organ
izations are concerned. Whatever
may have been the attitude of en-
ployes in the past, it is plain that
they are now prepared to insist upon
their right as American citizens to
bargain and deal collectively with
their employers upon equal terms"

Frank B. Powers Shows Communications Industry Ex
plots Workers While Paying Big Salaries to Execu
tves Who Don't Earn Them-Plant Equipment
Largely Increased as Business Dropped.

"If they would devote some frac-
tion of their energy and resourceful-
ness to improving conditions of the
employees, and putting the telegraph
industry back on it's feet, we would
not be SO critical of high salaries. But
it is inexcusable for an industry to
divert pennies from the pockets of
low-paid employees in order to main
tain high salaries"
After saying that telegraph COM
panies in Canada which operated un-
der agreement with the union had
paid better wages than those in this
country, Mr.. Powers said that the
Canadian companies have not been in
"the red all during the depression"
Discussing the difficulties of the
telegraph companies, he said:
"There are many reasons why the
telegraph companies in the United
States have found themselves in diff
ficulties. One is excessive expendi-
ture for plant and equipment.
Another is unfair and ruinous COM
petition. Still another is exceedingly
bad management.
"From 1917 to 1882, according to
department Of commerce and inter-
state commerce commission Stats
tics, telegraph companies Gland and
ocean cables) increased their invest
ment in plant and equipment from
$243,358, ,432 to $465, ,421, or 91.3
per cent. During this same time, the
total of revenue messages transmitted
decreased from 158,176,456 to 1885,
915,907, or 1877 per cent.
Warning Not Needed
"It might be claimed that no one
could foresee the panic of the last
four years. But the figures show
shat United States telegraph business
began declining in 1928, from the
peak of 1927, and continued to decline
still further in 1929, the boom year.
Instead of needing the warning, how
ever, and curtailing expenditures in
plant and equipment, telegraph COM
panies added an additional 500 ,030,543
between 1923 and 1882 to plant and
equipment investment"

More Pay Asked for Men
In Canadian Labor Camps

Ottawa (ILNS)-Increase of the
wages of men in the governments
labor camps from 20 cents to $1.10 a
day, was modest demand of the an
nual convention of the Canadian Le-
gion here.
The convention deplored "the lack
Of measures offering any hope for the
re-absorption of the unemployed into
industry, the segregation and brand
ing Of those compelled to accept relief
as a class apart and outcast, and the
perpetuation of conditions likely to
create a permanent and dependent
pauper class, deprived of normal eco
nomic privileges and rights"
