Assailing sthe proposed tax on the manufactur- -ers of munitions, the senator said:. 1 “The tax, I suppose, is levied on the theory that enormous profits are be- -ing made. I think it is no exaggera- dion to say that a large majority of the manufacture: ho went into the munitions business have not fared well; many have gone into bank- iruptcy. Of course a very few have ‘made good profits. “If taxation is to be uniform as con- mplated’ by the constitution, then rely we are departing a long way -from uniformity if we deliberately -single ‘a few products upon which to levy a tax.” Airship Drops Bombs Watertown, S.

The union men were addressed by Tim J. Daley, New York, president of the International Metal Polishers union; Carl Winkler, alderman from the Twentieth ward, Milwaukee, and member of the Wisconsin legislature; Robert Byron, International Sheet Metal Workers' union; C. L. Shamp, secretary-treasurer of the Interna- tional Stationary Firemen's union and John Rosicky, National Printing com- pany. Meeting To Be Held. Mass meetings of umon men and their friends will be held throughout the city until the fall election, speak- ers of national repute in labor circles being invited to address the workers in the campaign against the prohibi- tion amendment, “Excessive drinking is one of the results of poverty and not its cause,” said Tim Daley in his attack on pro- hibition plans. “According to the vol- uminous report of the Federal com- mission of nine men appointed to in- vestigate the causes of povetry in the United States these four reasons arc set forth: “Demial of the opportunity to reach the land. “Unemployment. “Unfair decisions of the courts on measures intended to benefit organi- zed labor. “Denial of privileges accorded the employing class,” “This report does not show the ex- cessive use of intoxicants is one of the causes of Boverty. “John D. Rockefeller and other capitalists who contribute millions to the fund that keeps the prohibitian | agitatién alive are the largest owners of stock in companies that manufac- ture patent medicines carrying a large perceritage of alcohol. Employers of labor contribute 90 er cent of the prohibition campaign unds.” Alderman Winkler of Milwaukee pointed out the alleged results to brewery workers and other members of the adoption of the prohibition amendment. “It will mean that thousands of trained men will be thrown out of employment. after devoting years to the perfecting of their particular pro- fessions,” said Mr. Winkler. “Other unions that have in times past been aided by the brewery workers and cigar makers should affiliate them- selves with these organizations at this time to defeat prohibition and save-their jobs.” Frisco Railroad Is Reincorporated; Fefi $225,064 Jetferson City, Mo., Aug. 24.—Ar- ticles of incorporation for the reor- fianized St. Louis & San Francisco |} ailroad company were filed in the office of the secretary of state here today and a charter was issued.
