NEW YORK—(FP)—Pullman porters organized in the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters are using the occasion of their union’s first anniversary to answer t Journal. One big point made in a living wage now? We are seeking a meet the high cost of living.” + he Pullman Co, ars-in-ser ves $139.30 on e porter it pays a month, declare the porters. porter paid this rate is “in charge’—doing the conductor’s work in addition to his own on the Pullman car. If the company paid a conductor for the work, it would spend $150 for the conductor plus $80 for the porter, Few Private Cars. “Furthermore, the company cannot point to a single porter regularly em- ployed in charge of a private car and therefore earning the maximum rate | of $104 a month, $1,248 a year men- tioned in the Wall Street Journal. The | porter is paid at the maximum rate | when he goes out in charge of the | , but he is seldom out in ty over a month or two at | a time, and never as much as a year | steadily. Between such choice runs The Pullman Co. is credited with | paying porters on committee and com- |pany work extra sums on the basis of their presumed tips equalling $75 a month. The porters say that they are actually paid only for such days Roy Lan- caster, secretary-treasurer of the brotherhood, says that he used to miss five days when called off his New York-Chicago run for company union work. He received pay only for the two days on which the committee met. Few Tips. Tips are about the $55 a month Wall Street Journal, not the $75 later implied as correct, according to Labor Bureau Inc. findings from the porters’ own | replies to a questionnaire. Sylvia Ko- | pald of the bureau is working out sta- tistics for the brotherhood to present with its case—to the Pullman Co. if a or brotherhood—to the rail mediation board otherwise. Only a third of the passengers in a parlor car of 31 seats will tip, porters ' Pullman Co. propaganda printed as a news article in the Wall the article is that the minimum wage “Quite true,” agree Is the $72.50 a month minimum of at least $150 monthly to say, and most give only a dime. In sleeping cars the percentage tipping is a little higher but the maximum amount given is usually a quarter. When a man and wife and children travel together, the man is likely to give the porter only a quarter for the whole family, even tho several berths are occupied. When berths are not all full, the porter is the loser. He is never sure of this much needed extra income from tips, Tipping the Boss. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters wants to see the porters and }maids paid sufficiently by the Pullman Co. so that they will not have to de- pend upon tips for their living. The tip is really tipping the company, the porters say, for not paying its work- ers decent wages. The company does not recognize tips as a part of earn- ings in apportioning pensions to old employes. The average pension given is only $18 a month. Porters have to pay for their own food enroute, paying half the high dining car prices charged to passen- gers, which is still an expensive rate for such poorly paid workers. Only a third of the porters, according to the Wall Street Journal figures, get free uniforms because of 10 years or more service. The majority of por- ters have this additional expense each year. As for owning their own homes and autos, the brotherhood officials laugh at the idea and wonder where the Wall Street Journal found its fig- ures. Porters in small towns may possibly own little shacks they call homes, but the bulk of the porters are urban dwellers and certainly do not own either residences or autos, Don’t Own Company. The financial paper makes a point of the porters’ ownership of Pullman Co, stock. Each porter is permitted to buy only one share and less than a tenth have taken the offer. The Pull- man Porters’ Benefit Assn., given with the company union, was denied the right of investing $200,000 of its | $250,000 funds taken from the porters in stock, FARRINGTON AND JOHN L.

I.—Observers here are speculating on what the report of Carmi A. Thompson will contain. Several men in public life who have ac companied Thompson on part of his trip gave their views of what they think the president's investigator will bring back. complete agreement on all sides. his trip is concluded, He will recommend against inde- pendence for the entire islands, or even for any portion of them in the immediate future. Since the longest time of his trip was spent in Mindoro, Palawan, Mindanao, the Sulu group and Jolo, his report will deal mainly with rubber, sugar and coal, Rubber will undoubtedly play an unduly prominent part in the report. The Philippines Herald says editor- ially, “Thompson is going to deal most- ly with the untold economic potential- ities of the Philippines as a sow: ce of rubber and other tropical products for American industries. He might pos sidly troat of the present administra tion of affairs in the islands but this Here is the practically unanimous view of what Thompson will have to say when4— AOE Ae FUSUUYE, Mecopaase 20n- On essential points there is sideration, and only insofar as it may have some bearing on the de- velopment of the natural resources of the Philippines by American capital, Rubber, in a Nut Shell. Rubber fands in the Philippines 1,600,000 acres. Cost of cultivating 2/2 acres in Philippines $170.00 Cost of cultivating 24% acres in Sumatra ov» 231,00 Cost of cultivating ry acres in Java . ae 333.00 (Showing the. Philippines as the cheapest piace for rubber growing.) Present U. S, capital in Philip. pines $450,000,000, Capital U. S, bankers propose to invest in Philippines islands rubber La pombmeon There is no need for despair be- cause of a few fakers, but there is great need that the rank and file learn that every official who talks to them about collaboration with the boss is a Potential traitor. The selling out by Farrington is not an act that was done in an unguarded moment, but the di- rect result of years spent in the belief that the coal owner and the coal dig- ger have something in common, Before this show is all over Far- rington, if his boss will allow him, may have something to say about this 100 per cent capitalist tool, John L. Lewis, and the readers of The DAILY WORKER may have one more “reve- lation” of the selling out of the miners by Lewis. It was Lewis who proposed to the coal operators that 200,000 coal miners be driven out of the ineustry to starve as far as either he or they cared, and his act in turning up a confederate, who was becoming too dangerous to him, will hardly at this late date stamp him as the disinterested guard- jan of the coal miners of North America, In 1922 Lewis, like the traitor he is, ran the knife in the back of the min- ers of Nova Scotia when a splendid victory was almost in their grasp. The miners of Nova Scotia had come out on strike against the use of the armed forces of the country being used to smash the then steel workers’ strike. Every last man in atid about the coal mines came out. The com- pany property could go to hell as far as the miners were concerned, and both the government and the opera- tors were in the frame of mind to settle, Only once in all the history of the labor movement in Canada did the sovernor-general interfere in a labor dispute, and it was in this miners’ strike in 1922, He came to Nova Scotia and met the officers of the miners’ union and agreed that the armed forces be all taken out of the strike field and that the miners start to go back into the mines when the troops leave the district, It was exactly at this point that the minister of militia and a lawyer for the British Empire Steel Corporation got John L, Lewis to step into the struggle on behalf of the master class and depose the district officers and order all local unions back to work on pain of having their charters taken away and their solidly organized union smashed to fragments, His is a his- tory of black-hearted treason to the coal miners of North America. Wherever men battled for bread this traitor tricked them and betrayed them. In West Virginia, where the miners put up @ battle that thrilled the world, John L, Lewis was swear- ing out affidavits that he was not in that state at all. In Somerset coke fields, where 40,000 coal miners came out on strike, Lewis, at the dictates of his coal operator boss, refused the strikers membership in the union and left them in the lurch when he signed nA Ae tate. THOMPSON ENDS THE DAILY: WORKER \ mas = TRIP; STIMSON APPLAUDS WOOD Last ‘Audience Solid for Independence (Special to The Daily Worker) j “MANILA, P. I, Sept, 12.—Colonel | Carmi Thompson, President Coolidge’s personal investigator in the Philip- pines, made his last speech to a meet- ing of Filipinos at Pasacao, southern Luzon. The Filipinos were unani- mously in favor of independence, and not a single speaker among them fa- vored the Bacon bill, which would di- vide the islands into two parts in or- der to cripple the independence move. Thompson is having trouble in get- ting back to Manila, as a storm drove the government cutter Mindoro, on which he was to take passage, out to sea, He intends to rest‘for some time at a mountain resort near Manila, and then to go to China to study: rela- tions between that country and the islands, Milltarist Speaks. Henry L, Stimson, former secretary of war, issued a signed statement to the press on the eve of Col. Carmi Thompson’s arrival in Manila. He lauded Governor General Wood for his undoing of the liberal measures of the preceding Harrfson regime, and threat- ened the Filipinos with American in- difference in case they broke away from the control of the United States and were attacked by other powers. a Be New Angle In Rubber, PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 12.—Capital- ists and politicians are bending an at- tentive ear to the reports of the Amer- ican Chemical Society congress here. The congress has been told and is in- vestigating the theory that sufficient rubber to provide for the present con- sumption of the United States (about one billion pounds) can be grown thru the efforts of 40,000 men farming the guayule shrub in the desert regions of the southwestern states. At present over 400,000 men are employed in the tropics to produce from rubber trees this much crude rubber. It May Work. The shrub is said to be under culti- vation on small farms in California and the technical difficulties of mak- ing rubber from its sap are in the way to being overcome. Since American policy in the Philippines has been largely influenced by the fact that the islands may be the United States’ chief source of rubber, observers think the guayule may aid the independence movement there, IS CRUSHED BY ATHENS TROOPS (Special to The Daily Worker) ATHENS, Sept. 12.—Fifty persons were killed and many wounded when thousands of shots were exchanged between members of the,Athens gar- vison and the republican guard.

Its field is to be found among the 619,866 Slovaks and 622,796 Czechs in the United States, according to the 1920 census. Its special strength however, is among the steel work- ers, coal miners, rubber workers and glass workers, in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois and other great industrial states. Slovak workers are to be found in the big cities in many trades, in Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and New York, and in the smaller cities, in Bridgeport, Conn.; Glassmere and Allentown, Pa.; Racine, Wisc.; in Youngstown, Akron, Neffs and Bellaire, Ohio. “Rovnost Ludu” was launched as a revolutionary monthly in October, 1906. This was the month in which the socialist party launched its first English-language daily in this coun- try, the Chicago Daily Socialist, with Joseph Medill Patterson, one of the owners and later one of the editors of the Chicago Tribune, as co-editor with Algernon M. Simons, author of “Social Forces in Amer- ican History.” The incident of the Chicago Daily Socialist is merely mentioned by way of contrast. “Rovnost Ludu” had only the will of the Slovak workers in the great basic indus- tries to keep it alive. The Chicago nections with liberals, who contrib- uted liberally in money and with such intellectual guidance as they had to offer, After six years the Chicago Daily Socialist passed out of existence in 1912, discredited, while the “Rovnost “8 * Ludu” conten to grow. In addition to the publication of a newspaper, the “Rovnost Ludu” “Roynost Ludu,” soon after it was | established became a semi-monthly 4 and then it became a weekly in 1908. It had the same difficulties that be- set all revolutionary working class dailies during the war. It was in June, 1917, the month that the espionage act went into force that the “Rovnost Ludu” ceased to be printed in the Spravedinost plant. DETROIT SLAVE DRIVER, HENRY FORD, BECOMES FIRST U, S.
