THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, MONDAY, .. AUGUST 23, 1915. 1 UNREST ATTRIBUTED TO FOUR SOURCES BY REPORT Unjust Dtstributiorv of Wealth and fncome Given as One of the Causes, COMMISSIONERS DISAGREE Members ot XT. S. Commission on In dustrial BelaOoms Submit Separate Opinions After Investigation. Chicago. Aug;. 23. Various conditions art namea as causes of Industrial un rest In the three summaries of the re ports of the United States Commission On Industrial Relations just given to the public. The findings contained therein, will be considered by congress. Unable to agree on a majority report, members of the commission, which ceases to exist today, signed separate reports. Commissioners Walsh, Len non, O'Connell and Garretson attached their signatures to the report drawn up" by Basil M." Manly, director of re search and investigation for the com mission, who represented the employes. In addition each commissioner submit ted "supplemental opinions and sugges tions.'' Agres oa Inheritance Tax. Commissioner Common, representing the public, prepared a report which "was signed by Mrs. Harriman. It was approved in part by Commissioners Ballou, Aishton and Weinstock. That part of the Common and Manly reports not approved by the three com missioners is reviewed by them in what Is called the Weinstock report. . The members agree, however, on one subject that of an inheritance tax. They recommend the enactment of a tax so graded that while making gen erous provision for the support of de pendents and the education of minor children, it shall leave no large accum ulation of wealth to pass into hands which had no share in Its production, the revenue from this tax to be re served by the federal government f r three principal purposes: Purposes of Tax. 1-r-The extension of education. ' The development of other Import ant social services which should prop el ly be performed by the nation which are discussed in detail elsewhere 3 .Development in cooperation with states and municipalities ot great con structive worm, such as road building. Irrigation and refoiestation. whicu would materially increase the efficien cy and welfare ot the entire nation. The commission tinds thut tnere Is no other legislation which could be passed by congress, the immediate and ultimate effects of which would be more salutary or would more greatly assist in tempering the existing spirit Of unrest. Causes of Unrest. The Manly report finds that the causes of industrial unrest "group themselves almost without exception under four main sources which include all the others." These four are: L'ntust distribution of wpulth nm4 Income. ii -Unemployment and denial of nr- portunity to earn a. living. v uemai or justice in the creation, lu the adjudication and in the adminis tration of law. . Denial of tbVriRht and otDortunl- ty to torm efcffectivti organizations. Discussing she first oX these causes, th'e report summarises evidence show- ins that 44 families possess aggregate Incomes totaling at the least 60 mil lions per year, while between one fourth and one third of male workers in factories and mines, 18 years of age and over, earn less than $10 per week and only about one tenth earn r-.ore than $20 per week. What Sis Dollars Mean. The report also says: Six dollars a week what does It mean to many? Three theatre tickets. gasonne ror trie week, or the price of a dinner for two; a pair of shoeu, three pairs of eioves. or the cost of an evening at bridge. io ine girl it means that every penny must be counted, every nofmal desire stifled, and each basic necesstty of life barely satisfied by the sacrifice of some other necessity. If more food must be had than is given with 15" cent dinners, it must be bought with what should an for clothes: if there is need for a new waist to replace the old one at whicn the forewoman has glanced reproaeh- xuuy, or at wmeii the Kills have giggled, there can be no lunches fpr a week, 'and dinners must cost 5 vpnta less each dav. Third Principal Cause. Under the heaH "Denial of Justice." fourid to be the third principal cause of unrest, the report cites nunieroua 'typical instances. First With regard to the enactment I NDUSTRII it's a; hold-up Such is MUTT'S idea of work. .

Second It is charged that after wholesome ; and necessary laws are passed, they are In large part nulli xied by the courts upon technicalities of a character which would not be held to invalidate legislation favorable to the interests of manufacturers, mer chants, bankers, and other property owners, or thrown out on the broad ground of unconstitutionality through strained or Illogical construction of constitution provisions, Judges rarer Wealthy. ,ZhLrdTThat m th administration of law, both common and atatute, there l discrimination by the courts against the poor and in favor of the wealthy and powerful, and that this dlscrimlna-2-nAiS.M not onIy "m the economic disabilities of the poor, but also out of the actual bias on the part of tha K,dg ln fvor ot the wealthy and in iiuentiai. The greatest cause of industrial un rest is the breakdown ln the adminis tration of labor laws and the distrust of our municipal, state and national governments on the nart'nf a ir .portion of our people, according to the "i'"" ik iieu oy iroiessor John H.

Aisnton, the employers' representa tives on the commission. Enforce Present Xiaws. Recommendations for additional leg islation would be futile, says the re port; until methods are provided for making enforceable the laws now on the statute books, through the crea tion of administratis machinery that will be entirely removed from political influences. To remedy the conditions criticised the report recommends the creation of a federal fund for social welfare, maintained by an inheritance tax on large fortunes, and administered by a commission on industrial relations aid ed by an advisory council composed of representatives of employers and employes. Continuing, the report says: One of the most important functions of the proposed industrial commission would be to deal with industrial dis putes between employers and em ployes. It would take over all the functions now exercised by the concil iation and mediation bureau of the department or labor and also the me diation board created -under the New lands act. Would Extend Act. The provisions of the Newlands act. now confined, to railroad operation in interstate commerce, would be extend ed to all industry of an interstate character. . To provide funds for the mainte nance of the Industrial commission and further social welfare, without in creasing taxation of the people, the report recommends an inheritance tax on large fortunes. The rate of tho inheritance tax is graduated from i per cent on the excess of $26,000 for tunes left to direct heirs, to 15 per cent on fortunes over $1,000,000. The tax on estates going to distant heirs is greater. Each State to Benefit. The inheritance tax proposed would be collected by the federal government through existing machinery that col lacts the income tax, and a portion would be turned over to each state. The various states now collect a sum equal to about $25,000,000 ln in heritance taxes, but the rate is low in some states. By increasing the rate as proposed it is estimated that a fund of $200,000,000 a year would be col lected, of which $50,000,000 would be returned to the various states.- The principal of this fund it is pro posed to invest in homes for working men, hospitals, rural credits for farm ers and such other purposes of a so cial nature as would insure an income.

RUEF LEAVES PRISON, MEETS MOTHER FIRST IE IN FOUR YEARS - - '. s ;-; - Ex-Boss -Leaves Penitentiary at 6:40 This Morning Starts for Short Exile, San Francisco, Aug. 28. (P. N. S.) Abraham Ruef stepped out of San Quentin penitentiary on parole at 6:40.' a. m. today. He had served four years, five months and nineteen days. His departure from San Quentin was a& quiet and undemonstrative as his en trance. At 6:30 o'clock Emlle E. Kahn, mem- ber of the local realty firm of Kahn & Feder, and Ruef's business manager, drove up to the prison in an automo bile. He called for Ruef, who tech nically was free after the ringing of tne 6 o clock belL Ten minutes later the iron barred door leading from the m-lson yard swung open and Ruef stepped out to his freedom. ' Meets Area Mother. Ruef Stepped into the waiting auto mobile and was driven alone with Kahn outside the .limits of San Quen tin .to another automobile, in which sat Impatiently his 80-year-old mother, Mr iH.i. . ,.- ah r . u ' rietta Settenf eld,' and several relatives.! mi at Triad conformity w"-h Ruef s trf" a6 W.hen hf ?nterd iriBon. " V, ""ithe best-looking ballplayer on either sister to see him in San Quentin, The meeting of Ruef and his aged mother and sister was pathetic. He embraced first one and then the other, while tears streamed down their faces. The meeting was made the more touch ing because Ruef's father, Meyer Ruef, was living when the former boss last kissed his mother and sister good-bye. Xn Xxilo " Tfcrse Months. After Ruef had embraced his mother time and again, the automobiles pro ceeded to San Rafael. There Ruef bade them good-bye for three months and boarded a train for Mendocino county, where he must remain in exile until the municipal election in San Francisco has passed. This, ' however, Is In accordance with Ruef's own re quest, made to the prison directors. Throughout yesterday the prisoners of San Quentin swarmed about Ruef, wishing him Godspeed and bidding him farewell. Dozens of them brought him little trinkets to take away In remembrance. One convict, serving a long term, walked up to Ruef and asked him to accept a small silk handkerchief, ln which the initial "R" was embroid ered.

But It was hot yesterday and all manner of expedients were re sorted to by Citizens In an effort to keep cool. Some took to the tub, others defied the humidity by "keeping mind serene while perspiration streamed." One man hid the ther mometer, drank iced tea and perused Augustus Thomas' play, "As a Man Thinks." Postmaster Myers, it Is said, spent part of the afternoon in the bath tub, with the temperature glass hanging where he could see It. He read mean while "Paradise Lost." Weather Forecaster Beals, the man who was responsible for it all. "Just perspired." First he went to the Press club breakfast for ex-President Taft That was warmftig. Then he went home and turned on a cold bath. .That did no good because he ran across some of his predictions of "cooler with westerly oreezes" and the marked con trast between fact and fiction made him hot. What Other Feople Bid, Elizabeth Chapln, the dancer, put on her new fox-fur collar and went out to the Oaks for a swim. E. J. Jaeger stayed at home and re moved his coat aid vest and read The' Journal. Charles H. Carey, president of the Oregon Bar association, on the othr hand kept his coat on all day. He al ways Insisted though that a man In the law business should keep cool under ail circumstances. United States Attorney Clarence Reames got 'a haircut and then as a further precaution against heat-procured a close shave this morning. Al Welch, wnose stock in trade are electric light and power properties, thought he would stay cool by an auto trip into the country. "I should have stayed at home because Jt was hotter out thefe and the dust was awful," he said today. Mayor Albee stayed at home and was cool. "I've been under fire so much recently," he explained, "that 9 little hot weather can't feaze ar all.

HIGH CLASS CHICKS GET HONOR PLACE Planned to Make Poultry Ex hibit at September Fair Ex clusive.and Instructive, Corvallis, Or., Aug. 23. Premium lists of the annual Benton County fair, September 16, 17 and 18, have been is sued by the fair board. The fair will be held on the ::ew fair grounds south of town. A plea is made to all citisens of the cpunty to cooperate in making the fair representative of the agricul tural and domestic products of this blue ribbon county. One of the features of the announce ment Is the Indention of the committee to make the fair an effective means of improving agricultural conditions. An instance of this is seen in the poultry classification, and in the pre- limlnary statement. That there are j too many breeds of poultry, and that it would be better to center on the j ones that have proved to be of except 'i4na! WOFta and then Produce them In numbers and of such quality that com- ! irrncrieerda?ateVec1ured and" handled at Increased rates. In carry- i. wuiuimiiiuveiy few breeds are placed in the Premium lists. Those selected as having dem oastrated their worth in Benton county are the following: Barred Rocks, White Rocks, Silver Wyandottes, White Wyandottes and Rhode Island Reds, among the Ameri can breeds; Light Bramas, Asiatics; White Leghorns, Brown Leghorns and Black Minorcas, Mediterranean breeds; Buff Orphington, English breed. Cash prizes will be given the win ners ln each of these breeds In various classes, but for all other entries only ribbons Will be awarded, thus eneour aging uniformity of egg and poultry production. Another change from previous prac tices is that winners of group or dis trict exhibits in the industrial club school exhibits cannot compete With the same product in the individual con tests. Those who wish to enter the in- dividual contests - must provide other ! products for the class or district group j although the products may be of the i same kind and variety. Last year the same product was ell- ' gible for entry into both classes, but ' Superintendent Roy E. Cannon an nounces that the fchange in this policy will be observed throughout all school exhibits.

ROCHE GETS BOUT WITH WELSH FOR PORTLAND BOXER Ralph Gruman Coming Home to Make Theatrical En gagement for Spell. A letter this morning from Billy Roche, manager of Ralph Gruman, the clever Portland lightweight, states that after Ralph's visit to relatives ln Port land he will have three fights in New Tork during October and November., Roche says that he gave the club the option of picking two of the fighters Gruman Is to meet, while the third will be Freddie Welsh." Ralph has had eight fights since he arrived in New York and won them all. Roche's letter., dated August 19, fol lows: "I thought I would write you a few lines to let you know what Ralph Gru man, your local boy, 7 is doing in the boxing gam around New Tork, He has been under my management since he came here, and, as you know, be has done ,very well. He has had eight fights since he arrived in New Tork, and won them all. He Is winner over such men as Phil Bloom, who was con sidered the best local boy around this part of the country, Joe Azevedo, Kid Burns, Jimmy Duffy, Moriarity, Buddy Ryan and others. "Now, : the reason Gruman, is not boxing these last few weeks is that during the months of July and August the boxing game is very bad around New York. There is practically only one club running, and that 1st the St. Nicholas rink. It - Is at- this club that Ralph' had most of his good fights. . "I Just closed a contract today, which 1 have been working on for the last four weeks, signing him to box three fights during the months of Oc tober and November. The first two men they are to pick will be their own choice, and the third man will be Freddie Welsh. "Now, of course, like all boys, Ralph is getting a little homesick, and I have already booked him to appear in the Pantages theatre ln your city. He will leave here about the first of the month and will stay in Portland after he works at the theatre until It is time for him to come back here and get ready for his winter campaign, but the press and public of this part of the country look upon him as the man who will win Freddie Welsh's title of j the champion of the world.
