PASTOR TELLS OF
 HARLAN COUNTY

Washington. April 20-(UP)-The Rev. Marshall A. Musick, United Mine Workers field representative, told the LaFollette civil liberties committee today he frequently had removed my false teeth and blacked my face" as a disguise to avoid Harlan county, Ky, deputy sheriffs. Musick, a curly haired slight lay preacher, testified in the commit tee inquiry into terrorism in bloody Harlan" county. He said he had frequently" used the disguise to escape from the deputies who trailed him while travelling through the county in behalf of the union.
 When I was trapped on the road by deputies" Musick testified, I'd remove my false teeth, black my face and change my clothes. I got away from deputies that way lots of times"
 Musick told how in June, 1884. a group of miners on their way to a union meeting were stopped by 2 group of deputies, beaten and forced to return to their homes.

Washington, Ind, April 20.-(UP) Henry Raney, 19. died today of a self inflicted bullet wound while police waited to charge him with staying his IS year old sweetheart. Raney shot pretty Mary Hartman to death because she wouldn't go rid- ing with him. He then fired three bullets into his own chest. His last words-to Police Captain Lewis Greenwell were: Tt was love af- fair and I don't want to live" Tt was just puppy love affa--," police said.
 Raney, a WPA worker, met Mary, student in Class "A in the grade school, seven months ago. They dated" frequently but while Henry told friends of their engagement" !" Mrs. Hartman said there had been no real understanding. They quar- reled recently. Henry accompanied by his brother, Joe, IT, went to Mary's house, apparently hoping to patch it up. Mary, her parents, MT. and Mrs. John Hartman, and their four other children were in the kitchen of the Hartman home when Henry and Joe arrived.
 'They came into the kitchen and talked for few minutes" Mrs. Hartman said. land Joe got drink

 Compared With America
 New York, April 20-(UP) = A British citizen with salary equiva- lent to 5000 annually would pay an income tax 1,03l per cent greater than an American with similar salary on the basis of the new Brit ish income tax rate of 25 per cent announced today.
 An American citizen with one child would be allowed exemptions of $2,900. If he received $5,000 sal- ary, he would pay income tax roughly on $2,lo0 at 4 per cent, or $84.
 A British citizen receiving 1000 pounds ($5,00O would be allowed $900 personal exemption and $500 for child. He, therefore, would pay income tax on $500. At 25 per cent the tax would amount to $950 or more than 10 times the tax. paid by the American.

er convinces the men and women
working for wages and salaries that
the rapacity and selfishness of the
merchants knows no bounds. An
other notion that was formerly held
by some of the unions has also been
shattered, that is, that there is a
distinction of generosity and moral
ity between the chain stores and the
independent stores, when it comes
to profits. 1t is folly for the unions
to expect any greater consideration
from the home stores than they do
from the chain stores. Both are the
same in respect to their methods of
suppression and exploitation. The
working people realize that the
clerks r in the right and are in
sympathy with them.
The lowest wages paid in Butte
for unskilled labor is now greatly
in excess of that offered the clerks.
The clerks cannot possibly accept
the offer of 10 per cent.

Open FORUM
DEFENDS GALEN
CONDEMNS LABOR
Montana Labor News:

Montana Labor News:
That article published under date
of May 20, 1897, "Flagrant Violation
of Eight Hour Law at Galen Hospi-
tal," was most interesting and to the
point, but why pick on Galen? Why
not include other state institutions
where women are employed?
The feasibility of observing the
eight hour law for women workers
at state institutions has always been
a controversial subject, and the con-
sensus of opinion among the admin
istrative stats that public house
keeping, like private homework,
cannot be done on a regular eight
hour basis, seems to prevail.
The Galen institution, according to
my information, is the only state in
stitution that has made any attempt
to refute this theory, end did work
out a schedule under which women
employees yer able to keep within
the eight hour limit. Mrs. w. D.
Gray, the housekeeper who success
fully put this schedule into opera
ton, was a member of organized
labor, and had the cooperation of
DR.. Vidal in her efforts to observe
the Montana eight hour law. After
nearly a year at Galen she was dis
placed and 1 do not know whether
the schedule was continued by sue
ceeding housekeepers.
Has the State Federation of Labor
ever done anything about organiz-
ing workers at our state institutions?
The Butte Cooks and Walters Union
at one time exercised jurisdiction
over male chefs and cooks at Warm
Springs and Galen hospitals, but
women workers were not required
to have membership cards in any
labor union. AS a union member
say that we are not entirely blame
less if conditions at our institutions
are not in accord with union prin-
ciples.-ANN A'GITATOR.

What Is Happening in
The Unions
Continued from Page y

Another thing that was brought
up by one of the miners delegates
and which led to some bitterness
was the action of the A. F. of L. in
issuing a charter to the blue-card
company union in the tri-state dis
trict.
Some time ago it may be recalled
that the Los Angeles Trades and
Labor Council suggested a plan of
reconciliation between the A. F. of
l.. and the c. l. o. in which Presi-
dent Roosevelt would tender his
good offices. This proposition was
also turned down by the Silver Bow
Trades and Labor Council.
A chain letter arrived praising
President Roosevelt for his court re-
form proposals and asking that each
person who received the letter would
copy it five times and mail to as
many individuals. The delegates
didn't think it serious enough to
adopt the request.
= q .
The Los Angeles Trades and La
Dor Council described the causes of
the studio strike and gave quite a
picture of the involved circumstances
surrounding the painters organiza-
ton. Most of the trouble at the
studios seem to move around this
organization and some of the other
building crafts. The Los Angeles
unions have also declared the Buck
Jones pictures unfair. The Montana
Labor News was instructed to pub
fish the letter relating to this I'M
fairness.
