Hast- ings of the Illinois Manufacturers As- sociation to have corporations join the Live Longex Club. This is a camouflage for enforcing physical ex- aminations on all their employes. “You can require your employes to take physical examinations on their application for employment,” Hast- ings declares in an open letter to the association members. “Urge them to continue these examinations once a year. Twice a year would be better.” Then to conceal the real purpose of the live-longer racket, he adds::, “Promise that physical examina- tions will not interfere with the em- % ployes’ jobs or chances with the com- & costs jumped 4 per cent.

But the most valaable feature to the boss, Hastings says, is that it “gives employers a valuable record of physical condi- tions.” The value of that record is almost as great as actual fingerprints. A union man can dye his hair, shave his moustache, get artificial teeth to get around the blacklist, but he will find it hard to alter or even to recognize the various body marks that a doc- tor, keer. on the scent, will discover in the physical examination and add to the “valuable record of physical conditions.” The infinite detail of company blacklisting and espionage systems, maintained with great intelligence and persistence, has recently been ex- posed ty Frank Palmer, Federated Press correspondent, in his book, Spies in Steel. The blacklist and spy operations of the Oliver Iron Mining Co., the Minnesota steel trust subsi- Giary, are there described. ‘The Uni- versal Portland Cement Co., another steel trust subsidiary, is represented on the board of the Illinois Manufae- turers Association.

The Communist Party of Austria had arranged a memorial meeting to be held at the graves of the victims of last year’s revolt on the first anni- versary of the shooting, July 15. In accordance with the plans, a notice of the meeting was given to the authori- ties. Call Similar Meet After this notice was made public the social democratic party announced its intention of holding a similar meeting at the same time and at the same place. Today the social democratic party informed the Communist Party that there would be a social democrat mu- nicipal guard at the cemetery which would form a cordon around the place and preeynt members of the Commu- nist Party from entering the grounds. Police. Keep Workers Out Later the police prohibited the Communist Party from meeting, be- cause the social democrats had in- formed them of their meeting and asked for police aid in keeping’ the members of the Communist |Party away. This was done in spite of the fact that the Communists had been the first to announce their intention of meeting, and in spite of the fact that they had been the first to arrive on the field. The social democratic party, it can be recalled, had condemned the upris- ing in Vienna last July and would never have thought of holding their “memorial” meeting if the Commu- nist Party had not intended to do so. As a result the police are now pre- venting Communist meetings all over the city while at the same time per- mitting such rank actions on the part of the social democrats.

The workers are striking for short- er hours and more wages. They were paid 30 cents per hour for chauffeurs, and helpers received from $22 to $27.50 per week. Nothing was paid for overtime. The company will not allow the workers ,to organize and protects the scabs by a force of from six to eight policemen daily. Declaring that while the firm has money enough to pay for the police they refuse to pay the workers, the call issued by the strike committee calls upon the housewives to help the workers in their fight byt refusing to buy in those stores served by Beh- rens.
