FRIDAY, AUGUST IA, 1886
INSURANCE OF BANK DEPOSITS
WORKS

The report, just issued, of the Fed
eral Deposit Insurance Corporation IS
an inspiring document. From January
i, 1884, to June 80, 1886, 81 insured
banks, with 66,035 depositors, failed.
All but 306 of the accounts of these
banks, less than one per cent, We're
fully covered by the insurance. The
accounts of the 9912 per cent, being
under $4,000 each, have been paid, or,
in the most recent cases, are about
to be paid.
In other words, small depositors
haven't lost a dollar through bank
failures since the FDIC began busi-
ness But how the reactionaries and
the high fnanciers howled when the
proposal to insure bank deposits first
came before congress in 1888!
Few people realize what per.
fectly rotten record Of failure Amer
lean banks had, even before the de-
preston. In the years from 1921 to
1929, both years included, 5,642 banks
in this country closed their doors. The
lowest year in that period was 1922,
when 354 banks failed; the highest
was 1926, with $50 failures. Only
minority Of these failed banks paid
their depositors in full.
The loss, hardship, encouragement
and deepened poverty of such series
of bank failures cannot be computed.
The cost Of deposit insurance is utter
ly negligible by comparison.

HART ARCADE
IMPROVES

In these days of the windup of the
depression, many improvements are
being made, not only throughout the
country, but also right here in our
own home town of Hamilton.
In this particular case the improve
ment in our city and at 312 Maple
avenue, deserves some attention. We
refer to the improvement just com
pleted in the Arcade Cafe and Lunch
House, conducted by John w. Hart.
A new bar and back bar have been
installed, and from the neat appear
ance is just a little better than any
installed in this vicinity recently. The
new fixtures were purchased from the
Western Sales Company, Ben Kranes,
proprietor, and dealers in all kinds of
bar fixtures. This firm is located at
214 South Third street, and they are
agents for the Seidel Woodworking
Company of Chicago, strictly union
concern.
The woodworkers' union label
adorns the fixtures installed by John
Hart, and this alone signifies that the
new fixtures have been made under
real working conditions.

LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE
RATES ARE SLASHED

When the federal communications
commission a few months ago initiat-
ed the investigation of the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company
authorized by the United States con-
gress, there was hue and cry promot-
ed by special interests against the
investigation as outraging the right
of the telephone industry to run its
affairs as it saw fit without govern
ment interference. Despite these pro
tests, the probe was carried on.
One result of the investigation was
the exposure of the excessive rates
charged by the A. T. & T. for long
distance calls. Officials of the COM
pany denied the accuracy of findings
of the commission and insisted that
the rates We're eminently just. Now
the company announces that new
rate effective September / will save
long distance telephone users about
s6,0o0000 a year A typical cut is
the one for three-minute station-to-
station calls from New York city to
San Francisco. The old day rate was
So compared with the new rate of
$3.50. The old night and Sunday rate
was $3.50 compared with the new
rate of $3.50.
1t is safe to say that if the federal
communications commission had not
uncovered the excessive profits accru-
ing from the old distance call
rates, the company would not have so
promptly initiated the new rates.
The spotlight of government pub
licity on the activities of corporations
is evidently in the public interest.

A FEW FACTS ON SPAIN

1t may be well to sum up few
facts about the present civil war in
Spain, facts which do not appear in
the headlines.
First, the present Spanish govern
ment is probably the most liberal or
progressive, to use the words as we
use them in this country, that Spain
has ever known. 1t came into power
at the last election, as the result of
a fusion of all the liberal parties in
Spain to overthrow the strongly Fas-
cist government then in power. The
election went Overwhelmingly for the
liberal coalition; but the different par
ties forming the present government
Immediately began to quarrel; and
kept it up until the outbreak of civil
war forced them to close ranks again.
Second, the Spanish rebels are not
radicals, as rebels usually are. They
are primarily adherents of Fascist
form of government. They include
the big landowners, for the excellent
reason that the breaking up of big
landed estates and dividing them

ing brought against the Camden po-
lice, for false arrest on behalf of
everyone arrested unlawfully since the
Of the strike, by A. j. Is
serman, attorney for the United Elec-
trical and Radio Workers Of America,
and the united defense committee.
Out of 200 people arrested, all of
whom spent few days in jail under
bond, approximately half have been
released. About 80 are still being
held in bail averaging from $4,000 to
$4,000 for the grand jury, which is
convening two months earlier this
year than in the past.
The continued prosecution OF
charges against the strikers and the
that the strike is over, is, in the
imposing of even heavier bail nov
opinion of Attorney Isserman, def
mite attempt to prevent future strike:
in Camden. According to Isserman
many of the men are held on sucl
charges as engaging in riot" whel
even the arresting officer has ad
mitted, under cross examination, tina
such riot did not exist.

among the peasants is one of the pro-
posals on which all factions of all the
liberal parties agree. The two chief
Fascist countries in Europe, Italy and
Germany, have supplied ammunition,
arms and military airplanes to the
rebels
Third. the war is not struggle
between Fascism and communism, but
between Fascism and liberalism.
Spanish communists joined in the CO.
alition which turned the old Fascist
government out of power, but they are
very much in the minority in that CO.
alition.
AS this is written, the rebellion
seems to have lost that momentum
which is so vital in most such move
ments. The Fascist plan was to bring
over to Spain the Moroccan army,
which, like the French Foreign Legion,
is composed mainly of foreigners
willing to fight on either side in any
war. Spanish army officers were
largely responsible for this plan, but
it broke down when the navy proved
loyal and refused to transport the
Moroccan force across the Straits o.
Gibraltar.

BY A. F. of l.. News Service.
A study of French labor conditions
has been undertaken by Miss Frances
Perkins, u. S. secretary of labor, who
went to Paris as delegate to the IN
ternational convention Of business and
professional women's clubs.
The new law recently put into effect
by the French government, which pro-
vides for annual vacations with pay to
all workers, attracted the particular
attention of the American cabinet
member, although her observations in
cluded personal inspection tour OF

Miss Perkins remarked that vaca-
tions with pay are general in Amer
lean professions and business, but al
most unknown in industry, except for
few large firms. The vacation prob
lem, she added, is under study by
American officials, in conjunction
with the International Labor Office
at Geneva.

The big industries, giants

in their stocks of munitions, too.
