Brazingly sticking their noses into
the presidential campaign, forces
working through the Ohio Manufac
turers Association, with headquarters
in Columbus, are allegedly seeking to
influence wage earners under their
domination to vote for Alf M. Landon,
republican candidate.
News Of this statewide scheme to
persuade Ohio labor to vote for the
choice of large employers was uncov-
cred by the Labor Tribune, Thursday.
Not since the heated presidential
campaign Of 1896 when William Jen-
nings Bryan sought to defeat William
Mckinley, the outright choice of the
vested interests of that period have
such tactics been used on large
scale. 1t will be remembered that the
industrial magnates at that time
sought to coerce labor to vote for Nc
Kinley, threatening to close their
plants if the workers did not do their
bidding.
Seeking to assure the election Of
their favorite candidate, the employer

Alleged violence in strikes is a ia
vorite theme on which anti-labor en-
ployers, the police and daily news
papers are united in making public
and deploring. Hardly a day goes by
in times Of labor unrest without the
newspapers featuring headlines like
these:
Paint Thrown on Employers
Home"
violence Flares in Transit Strike"
"Two Killed as Guards Battle Pick
cts"
After reading such headlines and the
articles written to bear them out,
many readers are likely to blame
workers and their friends for the
violence.
But the real source was disclosed in
testimony before the La Toilette civil
liberties committee in its investiga-
tion of labor spies in industrial dis
putes, with Railway Audit & Inspec-
tion Company as its subject. Here is
a summary of some of the testimony:
E. j. Dade testified that he had been
hired by the Railway Audit & Inspec-
tion Company for the express purpose
of creating disorder in strikes and
thus discrediting the strikers in the
eyes of the public.
There was milk strike in Cleve-
land. Frank Tabor was the head of
the Tabor Ice Cream Company, whose
employees had walked out. In order to
stimulate resentment against the
strikers and arouse sympathy for
Tabor, who was the client of spy
service for which Dade was working,
the latter and his strikebreaking asso-
eiates daubed red paint on Tabor's
home.
In the same strike, in order to make
it appear that strikers were firing on
! the company guards, the guards fired
on themselves. This emphasized the
apparent necessity for more guards
and more business for the concern that
furnished the thugs.
In the strike of the employees of the
Pittsburgh National Dairy Company
last year, guards were ordered to slug
members of trade unions and thus in
duce a counter attack.
/ Seven hundred strike breakers We're
recruited during the Wisconsin Light
and Power Company strike in Milwau-
kee. The company provided them with
ak handles to slug the strikers and
turned live steam on the picket lines
Double dealing is the regular prac-
tice of these spy concerns. The Rail
way Audit & Inspection Company sent
one of its spies into a refrigerator
strike in New York city. He posed as
a friend of the strikers and became
the unions publicity agent, and at the
same time furnished the company witt
daily reports on union activities.
The testimony also revealed thai
the r. A. |. and other spy services
make regular practice of using brib-
cry and threats to persuade unior
members to become spies.
Federal Laboratories, Inc, is sub
sidiary of the Railway Audit & In
speetion Company. According to the

groups, working with politicians, have
seen to it that definite, detailed in
structions have been placed in the
hands Of certain large manufacturers,
with the end in view Of promoting a
republican victory, thus assuring an
administration more to their liking.

Has the International Union of

ways been known by its present
name?
A-The union was originally called
the Western Federation of Miners. 1t

organization passed through what was
virtually a complete reorganization
and adopted the name by which it is
now known.

fits as workers in another state.

Bible Prophecy
And Revelation
To Be Discussed

Rev. Bert Atchison, pastor of
the Gospel Tabernacle, located on
Main street corner of First ave-
nue., has announced a series of
sermons upon the general theme
of "Bible Prophecy and the Book
of Revelation" These lectures
will be delivered every Sunday
evening at 8 o'clock at the Gospel
Tabernacle and will be illustrated
by large Bible charts some of
which have never been used in
this city before. The pastor will
also endeavor to make a syste-
matte study of the great phophe-
cies found in the Book of Daniel
every Wednesday evening at the
Tabernacle. These two books, he
declares, should be studied to-
gether as one throws light upon
the other. Daniel was told to
"Seal up the book until the time
of the end" but the Apostle John
was commanded as follows-"Seal
not the sayings of the prophecy
of this book: for the time is at
hand"
"Therefore, according to this
statement" says Rev. Atchison,
"the Book of Revelation is not
something concealed but rather
things that are clearly revealed
concerning the end of the age and
the Return of the Lord Jesus
Christ to establish His Kingdom
here upon the earth"
Some of the questions that will
be considered during the series of
sermons are as follows - "How
and When Will the Present
Church Afe End" "Will the
Church Pass Through the Great
Tribulation," "Does the Bible
teach the doctrine Of a General
and Simultaneous Resurrection of
the Dead and That All Will Be
Judged Before the Great White
Throne?" "Will the Roman En-
pire Be Revivsd?" "How the Way
Is Being Prepared for the Coming
of the Anti-Christ," when Will
the Battle of Armageddon Be
Fought ?" "Will the City of Baby
lon Be Rebuilt?" All Of these and
many similar questions of Bible
prophecy will be considered in
the light of the Scriptures. The
public in general is invited to at
tend these lectures on the Book
of Revelation.

CASTOR OIL FLAMES
LIGHT BOMB TARGETS

MURDOCH, Cal, July 90
(UP)-Army aviation experts
have just found another use for
castor oil in winning their battles.
During night bombardment ma
neuvers on Muroc Lake lombard
ment range the latter was lighted
up by million-candlepower flares.
The technique consisted in hav-
ing an observation plane fly over
the field before the bombarding.
1t dropped flares composed of alu-
minum powder, barium nitrate,
and castor oil, which gave a day
light intensity for a period of two
minutes during which the bombs
were dropped.
