LEWIS, MINE WORKERS' PRESIDENT, OPPOSES WAGE REDUCTION

IOWA CITY MANAGER ENDORSES HOME RULE

. (By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Dec. 1. The United Mine Workers of America will not stand for any reduction in wages, according to the December first issue of the United Mine Workers Journal. Thi3 policy is stated in connection with a discussion of the movement among employers throughout the country for a reduction of wages in the various industries. In the article, John L.. Lewis, international president of the miners' union, is quoted as follows: "Under no circumstances will we

permit any reduction in the wages of j over

ine mine workers of the country

There is not going to be any return to pre-war wages or conditions. Any reduction in wages is an economic mistake. It never produces any good result. What the mine workers have to

a letter from O. E. Carr, city manager of Dubuque, la., as follows: "In my judgment, the city manager plan of municipal administration is superior to any other plan yet tried in this country. This is indicated by its rapid growth. In 1914 it was simply an experiment. In 1920 there are 200 cities in the United States and Canada committed to it. "The city manager plan of government is now being seriously considered for adoption by the commission cities of Galveston. Omaha and DesMoines. For while the commission

plan is unquestionably an advance

the old federal plan, yet there

are certain difficulties encountered in the way of municipal operation under the commission plan. "I am entirely unfamiliar with the proposed bill for Indiana. My personal recommendation would be a law

similar to the Michigan law which will

should wish me to answer any definite

and that the membership shall stand

Behind that policy in solid phalanx. And the most essential element in that policy for the next two years must be that there shall be no backward step. The coal miners must not lose any of the things that they have won through sacrifice and struggle. It is well known that there is in the country today a well-defined, highlyfinanced and ably-conducted move-

should be only too glad to do so."

CONSOLIDATE PLANTS INTO TOY COMPANY

H. W. Bockoff and I,. F. Bockoff, connected with the National Automatic Tool company, represent a company which has bought the Henley Skate company, of Richmond, and the K. and K. Toy and Novelty company, of Indianapolis. It is their plan to consolidate these plants into one large novelty company which will manufacture all kinds of toys and novelties. The plans for the company have not been completed thus far, and a site for the location of the factory has not been selected. Mr. Bockoff was uncertain as to whether the plant would be brought to Richmond, saying that the available sites here were few and that several other cities were making efforts to land the plant. Between the two plants probably 300 men would be employed. At the present time the K. and K. plant is employing about 140 men and the local skate plant a very small number, probably 20. However, neither are running atj'ull capacity. L. F. Bockoff said that it was not decided yet what the capitalization of the plant would be.
