Younger Rockefeller's Idea !
of Industrial Democracy
Is Wholly Endorsed.
Pueblo, Colo., Oct. 2. By unanimous
vote the miners union representatives
accepted the "industrial democracy"
plan at noon today after It had been
outlined by John D. Rockefeller, jr.. in
an address here this morning before of
ficials of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
company, mine superintendents and
members or tne miners grievance com-
mittees from many of the Colorado coal
camps. I
Details of the plan will be made pub- j
lie later. The plan will now go before
all miners of the company for vote by
secret ballot Upon that vote will de-
I pnd whether the plan will be put into i
eiieci.
Company PayH All Kxpenses.
The expenses of the miners delegates !
in attending the meeting were paid by j
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company,
which also reimbursed the men for the j
time they lost in leaving Ihe mines and
coming to Pueblo. j
Xo Biff Profits Paid. I
"For 14 years," Mr. Rockefeller told I
the men. "the holders of common stock
in the Colorado Fuel and Iron company .
have not received one cent on their in-
vestment Does that tally with the i
stories that the stockholders have been
oppressing you miners? Jfot one man
in this room can afford to let the cap-
ital invested in mines in Colorado get
discouraged and pull out If we. had !
held a meeting like this months or '
years ago, I, feel sure that every one of i
you men would have said that the
stockholders were not getting a square
deal. ,

"There are men going over the coun- '
try today preaching to the working '
men that they should get the very
shortest hours they can. do just as lit- J
tie work as they can and get as much

1 "Men who give you such advice as
that are not only enemies of labor; they i
are its deadliest enemies. When the
labor party in a company follows such '
false counsel the Interests of all par-
ties suffer. If all parties are content
with their share of the prifits and do :
their share to make the work of the '
company a success, the interests of all,
will be served.
"The common stockholders must' be
patient awhile yet I am sure they will !
be patient if they see that the other i
elements are doing their share of the
work and bearing their share of the .
burden."
Mr. Rockefeller then began an expla-
nation of the industrial plan and the I
meeting went into executive session. j
German Dynamite Ship
Must Remove Cargo or v
Leave U. S. Waters
New York. Oct 2. After spending 13
.nonths at anchor in New York harbor,
during which time the residents ot
South Brooklyn have been caused con
siderable worry on account of its close
proximity, the port authorities have
finally decided that the" German dynam
ite ship Magdeburg must either dispose
of its dangerous cargo or steam to sea.
At the outbreak of the war the Mag
deburg was bound for Australia with
a cargo of 300 tons of dynamite and
put into New York In order to eseape
capture. Lost July an inspection of the
boat and its cargo was made by federal
officials and it was decided that the
explosive was properly packed and not
an immediate menace. Nevertheless this
report did not appease the fears of the
residents of South Brooklyn and a way
was sought to cause the ship to move or
to at least dispose of its cargo. The
means were found "under the anchorage
laws and coast guard officials will
have them carried out
It is probable that an attempt will be
made to dispose of the cargo, for a ven
ture to sea now would mean inevitable
capture of the Magdeburg with the
added danger of annihilation if a sin
gle shell struck the vessel in attempt
ing to escape. Even to more her cargo,
however, it will be necessary for the
Magdeburg to go outside the limits of
the city.

To Escape Alimony,
New Yorkers Voluntarily
Become Inmates. Of Jail
New York. Oct . The "Alimony
club." which for years has held sway in
Ludlow street jail, is threatened with
eviction if the recommendations for its
abolishment made by the sheriff of the
county are accepted by the city authori
ties. Not only would this effect a sav
ing of over Sloe.eOf a year to the city,
but it was pointed out that many go
voluntarily to the jail to escape the
payment of alimony or other legal
debts, paying personally for the regis
tration of their commitments.
"Within the past week a case In point
was cited where a man arrived at the
jail with his grip in one hand and his
commitment papers in the other, and
paid $3.50 as a fee for filing his own
commitment The sheriff did not want
to arrest this man, as his little daugh
ter had made an earnest appeal to give
him a chance, but the man refused his
f reedonv. saying he was going to "jail or
know the reason why. As he proved
that he bad been regularly committed
there was nothing to do but to take him
in. Other eases are directly the opposite.
