"There is a real reason for the heads of the copper

If they do not learn it and continue their policy of
meddling in state politics they will wake up some morn

years.
v i he people ot Montana are not unfriendly toward
the copper company as a business, but they are ge ling
damned tired of the infernal and eternal meddling
the company in the state's politics. As a matter of
fact it is not generally believed that the real powers
of the copper company realize how asinine the whole

WASHINGTON GOSSIP
By Laurence Todd, Federated Press
■
Washington—It ever there was a
moment when Luis' N. Morones, head
ot the Mexican Regional Confedera
turn of Labor and vice president of
the Pan-American Federation of Lu
bor, needed a public testimonial of
faith in his integrity as a leader of
the working class and an upholder of
the Mexican constitution, it was when
on July 24 the American press carri
ed big headlines announcing that he
was being hunted by the police of
Mexico City. Morones, leader of an
organization which boasts of having
enlisted two million Mexican workers
in ten years for their own émancipa
tion was the object of a man-hunt d*
reeled by his political enemies. Driv
en from the cabinet post where he
had enforced the law against Ameri
can oil corporation he was still one of
the few men_through» whom the
American labor movement had come
to apreciate the Mexican revolution.
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor and of
the Pan-American Federation of La
bor, was in Washington. He had re
ceived no word from Morones, and
none from the Mexican regional fed
eration of labor. He read of a vicious
attack on Morones in the editorial
columns of the Washington Post,
which has generally reflected the
ViewBof Harry Sinclair, Albert Fall
and Edward Doheny. In this attack
the oil magnates' mouthpiece de
nounced Morones' "communistic labor
schemes", his "fantastic labor move
ment with strong bolshevik leanings"
and the "aggrressions of Mexican la
bor under Morones' leadership." He
read also a New York Times editorial
which depicted a struggle between
the labor and peasant elements in
Mexico, and attributed the anti-Mo
rones outcry after the death of Obre
gon to the peasmts' jealousy of the
improvement in conditions secured
recent years by organized labor under
Morones' leadership.
♦ * • *
But no statement was forthcoming
from the president 0 fthe P. A. F. of
L. Green waited for detailed infor
matten from Mexico. The fact that
Morones, vice president of his organi
ration and co-chief in the alliance of
the American and Mexican major la
bor movements, was under sudden
and hysterical attack did not move
him to public expression of solidarity
with Mexican labor in this crisis. He

it would be. In the crass inudstrial system of today
life is worh less than raw material or machines.
Every year 20,000 workers are declared to be the
victims of industrial ccJdents in this country. That
figure represents only those directly injured. It docs
not take into account the families of the injured.
Measured by the family of five on which economic
statistics are usually based this would mean at least
100,000 persons affected indirectly by industrial acci
dents.
Ninety-eight per cent of these accidents are prevent
able and they are not prevented. What an indictment
of modern industry.
A shorter work day would greatly lessen the num
ber of accidents. Accidents happen most frequently
near the end of the day when the worker is tired. But
a shortr work day would make more jobs. Would open
the way for wage increases. Modern industry could
notthink of anything like that. Better lose a hundred
billion than do anything that might tend to increase
wages.
Accidets that maim and bruise and make workers un
fit to work are not tre only crimes of modern industry.
There are the accidents of sickness, broken homes,
the young driven into lives of vice and crime because
of poverty wages. The loss of education by the chil
dren of the workers who yearn for it. The sentencing
of millions to eternal drudgery.
' No money values can be placed on these. These are
the injuries to the soul and the heart.
And all of thse things will continue and go on so
long as industry has no soul. And if you want to be
convinced that American industry in general has no
soul simply compare the billions of dividends wrung
from industry every year with the average wage of
millions of American workers which is between $25
and $30 a week.
Industry will have a soul only when it is organized.
When service becomes a greater achievement than pro
fit.
Twenty thousand maimed in industry every year.
Ten billions of money loss to industry every year be
cause of these accidents. Thousands of lives and
homes wrecked because of poverty. This is capitalism
at its peak of efficiency, at the zenith of its develop
ment.

ORGANIZATION TACTICS
It appears that at the very outset of the organiza
tion of these so-called Labor Banks on the Pacific
coast considerable dissatisfaction cropped out, on the
part of some sections of the B. of L. E. with Cass,
Merrick and Company. They could not quite
themselves with respect to their bona fides.
these gentlemen were absolute strangers to both the B.
and the labor movement generally the suspi
cion was quite natural and justifiable. It had, of
course, a tendency to slacken up the work of Cass,
Merrick and Company, who could not tolerate such
suspicious atmosphere. Therefore they appealed for
help to their masters in Cleveland. Mr. Geo. T. Webb
who was vice president of the Brotherhood Bank at
Cleveland and directing head of all the brotherhood fi
nancial institutions, fortified their position with the
following letter:

attitude of the Clevelando Brotherhood Investment
Company and the Cleveland Bank on matters affecting
the Pacific northwest.
Mr. Cass, the vice president and operating
head of the Brotherhood's Co-operative National Bank
of Spokane, has been delegated by us to represent us
in the northwest field, and he is thoroughly conversant
with our wishes and fully empowered to speak for us
on questions regarding the set up of new banking op
erations in that territory, so far as our relations with
them are concerned. Mr. Cass has had an abundance
of experience in the banking field, is sympathetic to
our cause, and is thoroughly familiar with the Cleve
land organization. We have every confidence that he
will give you able assistance.

he said, experts may extract power
and raw materials for a decentralized
industrial system in which the high
cost of distribution and congestion of
population would disappear.
Sweeney spoke of 30,000 industrial
products to be derived from corn

extent of a billion tons annually.

That is to say, that regardless of what the member
ship of the B. of L. E. thought about the methods and
tactics of Cass, Merrick and Company it had
in the matter. Cleveland, looked to Cass and Cass
only. As far as the membership or the direct repre
sentatives of that membership of the B. of L. E. were
concerned, insofar as Webb was the boss, they do not
exist for practical banking purposes. For the rank and
file has no voice in these banks. This fact should be
indelibly impressed in the mind of every worker.
Every salesman was supplied with a copy of this
letter. Its purpose was to instill confidence in Cass,
Merrick and Company. For anything coming from
Cleveland, in the opinion of most of the rank and file,
certainly was genuine. But not all is gold that glit
ters. The slickers used Cleveland to overawe the rank
and file, and thus stop the rapid spread of this mis
trust against themselves. Of course, Cleveland was in
on the plot.
Our financial experts, as a foundation step toward
the foundation of the banks, proceeded to select an oi
ganizing committee at each local point. This move
was made with the finest diplomacy.
Prominent labor men were induced to become mem
bers of these committees. They were secured to act
as bell-wethers, most of whom were honest and sin
cere. They were told absolutely nothing beyond the
fact that a bank was being organized. As regards the
ownership and control of the rank and file in the bank,
they received the general vague inforatlon that it
"a co-operative brotherhood bank."

At first, Cass, Merrick and Company employed ac
tual members of the B. of L. E. as salesmen. This
was a strategic step, as members of the B. of L. E.
enjoyed an extensive acquaintance, especially the more
prominent Their connections invaluable to
Cass, Merrick and Company. For this work many rail
men laid off, for which they were paid the sum of
ten dollars per day and expenses, or about what they
earned as rail workers. To them it was no sinecure.
This system of salesmanship soon provided Cass,
Merrick and Company, an abundance of leads among
the rail fraternity as well as the labor movement gen
erally. They took full and complete advantage of all
those leads.
Now it is the most natural thing in the world for a
human being to ask a question. When, therefore, the
B. of L. E. salesmen asked a question concerning some
very important detail of the bank that was being or
ganized he was told off by either Cass or Merrick
that being a "hog head" he knew nothing about the j
banking business and could not understand it. How
ever if he persisted in his quizzical mood, he was filed
promptly. And if he was some sort of a minor offi -1
cer, such as are used for decorative purposes, he lost !
his office. For neither Merrick nor Cass could afford
the rank and file the luxury of asking questions, j
Their records, as we have delineated them on these _
pages show that. Webb, Cass and Merrick and Com- :
pany regard the mass of the working class as consti- i
tuting the hoi-polloi. Hence their dictatorship.
After the rail men had gathered the leads and es- hi
* t
tablished contact with the masses in the B. of L. E. '.1
and other unions, Cass and Merrick let loose a crow
of professional stock salesmen to finish the job in a |
style of real sales craftmanship.
These salesmen were employed by the Pacific Bro-lt

were carefully psychologized by Mr. Merrick and Mr.
