PAGE TWO LEGION, LABOR PROGRAM SAME AVERS SPEAKER Major Berry, Head of Inter- | national Pressman’s Union, Speaks FOR . BETTER AMERICA| St. Paul, Sept. 18.—The American) Federation of Labor and The Ameri can Legion are common | bond in a fight “to make for Amere ica one hundred percent intelligence, intellect and an unadulterated af- fection and love for country,” George | L. Berry, delegate from ‘Tennessee, former national vice-commander of the Aniérican Legion and president | of the International Pressmen’s al ion, said in addressing the Legion's convention tod: bound in organized labor and , Sanuel pers, Mr. Berry declared the aspirations of the two institutions, insofar as their specific jurisdictions extend, are identical and that “it was good that in the life of this country there has into existence an organization h as ‘The Legion, «interested in legislation for human development and economic fairness.” “The International Trades Ui that make up The American Feder tion of Labor are both economic and legislative in character,” Mr. Berry asserted, Federation American “The American Federation of La- bor is American in its every purpo! and sentiment. I venture the obser- vation that no organization of men and women would respond in resent- ment it anything that is in contra- vention to our American ideals and purposes any quicker than would the cou American Federation of Labor, It stands against sovietism and com- munism; both of which are Un- American and founded upon theories Railroads 9 The LaFollette platform calls for Bovernment ownership of railroads. fhe Laollette campaign is to be oaducted with special appeal to the mer vote, especialy the farmer ote of the Northwest states. ari the qu Do the farmers wish the government to own operate the railroads? luminating editorial on the governm S ap. the August 30 number of. The Country Gentleman.” Government-owned railroads and ailroad, property, like federal build- ings, would be exempt from taxation iby states, counties or municipalities. Ou this phase of the subject the edi- torial reterred to comments in parts 6 follows That 425,892, ould mean a loss of $8,- lax revenue for Minne- $7, 976. for Wisconsin; 7403 for Iowa; $6,739,346 tor 960 for Nebraska; $4,679,693 Montana, and $4,- 072,282 for North Dakota. , These lo which would have to be made up by increased taxes on other forms of property, are equivalent to $32 for every farm, or $2.80 for every. man, woman and child in Iowa. To $40 for every farm or $3.90 for every person in Minnesota. To $52.40 for every farm or $6.30 for every person in North Dakota. Andto $81.25 for every farm or $8.50 for every person liying in Montana. These figures in every case are based. on official records. The bulk of more than $300,- 000,000 annually distributed by the railroads in taxes goes to the states and counties—$248,605,094 out of $300,452,723 in 1922, and a still larger amount last year. It is pointed out that drying up rail- oad taxes would have a particularly Adverse affect on the agricultural tates, notably those of the North- est. ‘On the basis of the 1923 collec- on,” says the treasurer of Rosebud Founty, Montana, “the loss of railroad taxes would increase the levy on re- naining property 56 per cent, thereby ecoming an unbearable burden on the axpayer;” For a dozen North Dakota counties, thosen at random, abolition of rail- oad-taxes would increase general tax evion: from 8.86: per cent to 23.47 per ent. Says the editor of “The Country entleman”: “Railroad taxes, in effect, have acted a medium for equalizing the social balanee between the newer localities nd the older and richer industrial egions: .It is in’ these older and rich- regions that most of the stock- olders of the railroads reside. So ilnoad-.taxes act) as a means of phoning funds from these regions to y for. ements in localities hat could not otherwise afford them pt this time.” Some may contend that there would be fdr the-farmers a compensation for joss @f railroad taxes in the fact pf lowerett freight rates under govern- ment ownership: bar operation.

Marines reenacted the battle of Antietam. destructive to the well being of our citizenship. “The American Federation ‘of La- bor joins with The American Legion in that great legislative program which seeks to eliminate illiteracy from Americ The Federation and the Legion could not be consistent, with the broad humanitarian — pro- gram based upon practical * exper- iences, to hesitate in their support and allegiance to the proposition of licating illiteracy. Consequently, it is good to’ be able to point to the records of the Legion and the Fed-| eration of Labor in their determin-) ation to find the cause and to apply the remedy to illiteracy. “They have concluded that there are two principal reasgns for its ex-| istence in America. First, the ex- ploitation and use of children in the factories, the shops, the mines and the farms—the child life. The remedy proposed by these two great American institu- tions is identical. Second, as a furth- er remedy these two institutions have id that immigration has played its and I believe that their con- |clusion is correct. They, as a con- sequence, have jointly urged upon the government the enactment of an immigration law that will be both | practical, just and responsive to the requirements of our nation.” The Federation of Labor has un- animously endorsed the legislative program of the Legion in toto, Mr. Berry said, and in doing so “there was brought to the Legion’s cause the greatest single numerical and legislative force within the confines of the nation.” Answer To Legion “Labor’s answer to the Legion, when inquiries and requests for sup- port were sought, has been ‘tell us {take with you and all other forward [looking citizens of our country to secure it for yau.’ This answer has been given without pressure. This has come without the necessity of educating labor as to the accuracy and justice of the Legion’s cause. It se of the knowledge Fi has come b of two thin: t, that the Le- gion has so adjusted itself as to al- ways be right and, second, labor has a manifestation of gratitude to those responsible for the ending of the World’s War and the honorable representations made in that conflict in the interest of our republic.” HALVORSON AND SHAFER SPEAK FOR COALITION (Continued from page one.) finally come out openly in support of the bitterest enemy the Republican party has. If there is anything more hg can do to forfeit the support of Republicans, I don’t know what it is.” In opening his address last night Mr. Halvorson spoke of the McNary- Haugen bill and declared his convic- tion that it will be enacted into law at the next session of congress. He then arraigned Senator LaFollette’s effort to overthrow the foundation of the constitution of the United States by depriving the courts of their power. “When we consider the mistakes LaFollette has made, I think it is pretty evident that it isn’t safe to let him write a new con- stitution for us,” the speaker declar- ed. The mess made by the Nonpartisan league administration of the North Dakota Home Builders association, and other state industries was touch- ed on by Mr. Halvorson who pointed out that with such a record behind it, the league was scarcely in a position to demand the expansion of the state industrial program under league guidance, which is one of the points in its platform. State Mil Discuseed In discussing the state mill situa- tion Mr. Halvorson pointed to the heavy losses which have been in- eurred by that enterprise owing to the economic disadvantages which any mill of that size located in North Dakota must face.

Vam Horn, former pas- tor of the Mandan Methodist church, yesterday officiated at the marriage of his own daughter, Miss Ruth to Robert C. Gehring of’ Mandan. The wedding will be of interest to’ a large number of friends of the new- lyweds as well as many members of the Van Horn family. The ceremony occurred at the Van Horn home in Des Laes, N. D., with only intimate friends present. Fol- lowing the wedding Mr. and Mrs. Gehring left by automobile for El- gin, Iowa, former home of the groom where they will spend a few weeks honeymoon before returning to Man- || dan to make their home.

The mill grinds North Dakota hard wheat, of which. there is a very limited supply, and may thus be a factor in affecting the price of this wheat.
