STEEL INDUSTRY WRONGS Would Be Hid Disguised By Abuse New York.—The steel industry's 12-hour day cannot be remedied by at tempts to discredit those who have called attention to these conditions said Bishop Francis J. McConnell chairman of the interchurch world movement's commission that investi gated the steel strike. This report is now attacked by Marshall Olds, publicity man in this city, who has written a 500-page book on "The Analysis of the Interchurch World Movement Report on the Steel Strike." Bishop McConnell says the commis sion stands by its investigators and its report. "All the loose and wild charges about the investigators as bolshevists and anarchists," said the churchman, "were perfectly well known to the members of the com mission and the interchurch officers and after thorough investigation were contemptuously thrown aside. "Once again the members of the commission urge their report of the hours, wages, and conditions in the steel industry upon the public for careful reading and re-reading. The 12-hour day is still the rule of the continuous production departments of the steel industry, and undemocrat ic and un-American conditions of con trol still characterize many of the largest steel plants." OIL STOCKS INCREASE New York.—Complete returns from every Standard oil affiliate shows that the recent wave of stock divi dends has resulted in an increased capitalization of more than $1,000, 000,000. The former total capitaliza tion is $1,747,363,885. In addition to this increased capi talization the companies paid out $129,029,865 in cash dividends. Tom Sims says: What this country needs is onions top polite to smell in company. ~'-h FINE ALIBI For By New .-j.w* iO Lv Trust Prepared Angel" Advertis ing Agent York.—Like a snarling grlr- zly with a sore toe the steel trust has been squirming ever since the in terchurch world movement published its probe of the steel strike. The trust is hard boiled, but it is not too tough to ignore criticism. Marshall Olds, an advertising agent, comes to the rescue of the trust. He has written a 500-page book to show that the church men's report is wholly unreliable. Mr. Olds claims the steel trust was wronged by radicals who led the well-meaning church men astray. Even "liberals" were hi the plot, according to Mr. Olds. The tale real like a story from fairy land. First, the wicked strik ers then the justice-loving clergy men who were deceived by radicals and "liberals" and then Mr. Olds, spurring across the plains, like the knight of old, to rescue the distressed steel trust. Mr. Olds has devoted two years to prove the trust's innocence. He has received no money from the trust not one single kopek. His only de sire is to seek the truth and announce the same to a victimized world. Dr. Jeremiah W. Jenks, of New York University, blesses the book, and in a foreword he lectures the clergy men for venturing into the industrial field. According to Dr. Jenks it takes special training to investigate a 12 hour day, a seven-day week, outrages by cossacks and denials of free speech by steel-owned public officials. Neither Mr. Olds nor Dr. Jenks dis cuss the cause of the strike, but they show much alarm because some church men printed some affidavits that they now declare are false. No mention is made of Judge Gary's refusal to meet representatives of his employes. The steel executive said he favors the anti union shop. When the strike started the trust's publicity agents realized Judge Gary's reply was a poor de fense for the trust. Then, and not till then, was it discovered that the strikers were attempting to over throw the government. The Olds book and Dr. Jenks' fore word will make a fine alibi for the trust. HIDE PROFITS TRICKS LAW Washington.—The intricacies of big business, and the methods it employs to hide profits and evade the law were revealed in a senate committee by A. E. Hinch, comptroller of the Stan dard Oil Company, jf New York. The witness said his company turn ed over its ocean vessels to the Stand ard Oil Company of Hong Kong. The Oriental Company then leased the boats to the Standard Oil Company of Delaware, and the latter company operates the boats for the original owner at a set rate. The witness acknowledged that his company owns Standard Oil of Hong Kong, and that the latter company has a surplus of $24,000,000. The wit ness also stated that his company Standard Oil of New York—made net earnings of $11,104,165.80 the first six months of 1922. "BARGAINS IN LABOR" Washington. In announcing its list of available office employes in a confidential bulletin to local business men, an employment agency in this city says: "We have many other excellent bar gains in all types of office help." This agency also assumes to "edu cate" business men on the questions of the day. In discussing the stock dividend it says the stockholder is not enriched, but— "Many of the companies that have declared large stock dividends are continuing to pay the old rate on tl increased amount of stock and to that extent the stockholders will be bene fited in actual cash income in the future." HUGE OIL PROFITS Washington.—The Magnolia Petro leum Company, since its organizatioi in 1911, has made dividend payments either in cash or stock amounting to $89,564,000, a senate committee was told by W. C. Proctor, the company' treasurer. The company is a Stand ard Oil unit. ROADS DROP DEMANDS New York.—It is stated that many railroads have withdrawn their de mand for wage decreases before the railroad labor board. This move ment affects the transportation'em ployes. STATE UNIONS TO MEET Dallas,Texas.—The executive board of the Texas State Federation of La bor has selected this city for the an nual convention, to convene Monday May 21, next. TO OUTLAW OILED MILK -X%i Washington.—A bill rioW pending in the senate would prohibit the man ufacture and sale of evaporated or condensed skim milk to which a cheap vegetable oil has been added to take the place of butter fat which has been extracted. It is shown that manufacturers of this oiled milk make two enormous profits. Their first profit is when they extract the butter from the whole milk and sell it and the second is when they doctor this skim milk with cheap oil and place it on the market under pleasant-sounding trade names. The stuff has absolutely no value, and is downright harmful because it is given to babies as a food. Manufacturers of condensed milk declare ft is ruining that industry. CHILD LABOR CONTROL Urged at Senate Committee Hearing Washington. President Gompefti, Miss Grace Abbott, of the federal children's bureau, and other speakers urged a sub-committee of the senate judiciary committee to favor the child labor amendment to the federal con stitution proposed by Senator McCor mick shortly after the United States supreme court set aside the law that would tax profiti of child labor. The authors of that legislation intended to make child labor expensive and based their act on supreme court decisions" like the oleomargarine and state bank rulings, which held that it was legal to tax oleomargarine and state banks out of existence. When this was at tempted, in the case of child labor, the court held the act was illegal. The McCormick amendment empow ers congress to limit or prohibit the labor of persons under 18 years of age. Amendments on this subject are also proposed by Senators Johnson, of California, Lodge, of Massachu setts, and Walsh, of Montana. Or ganized labor and other opponents of child labor are supporting the I®c Cormick amendment. CAN MONOPOLIZE AGENTS Washington.—The United States supreme court has ruled that the Cur tis Publishing Company, of Philadel phia, has the right to stop its whole salers selling or distributing maga zines or newspapers of other publi cations. The federal trade commis sion ruled that the company's policy was against the law. In setting aside the commission's decision, the court said the company's contract was one of agency and not of sale and therefore was not prohib ited by the Clayton act. Chief Jus tice Taft and Associate Justice Bran deis dissented. They'll bring you back for another pack. They're just that good, believe me.
