Unions not Affected
by Anti- Ttust Law
Washington, Dec. 30.—That labor
unions do not come under the i?n»-
visions of the Sherman anti-trust
law was the belief expressed today
by #Frank Morrison, secretary of the
American Federation of Labor.
“When the anti-trust law was
framed,” said Mr. Morrison, “there
was no intention that labor unions
should ever be affected by it. It was
passed to meet a different demand
There Is at present a bill pending in
Congrss, introduced by Representative
Wilson, of PnnSylvania, to defl,niteiy
exempt labor unions from the opera
tion of the Sherman anti-trust
l&w*
Mr. Morrison endorsed the plan for
a labor commission, on a large scale
as a government institution as pro
posed to President Taft by labor ex
perts attending the convention
scientist^ here.
“We have always advocated a de
partment of. labor of the govern'
ment.” said Mr. Morrison,
is at present a hill introduced by
Representative Sulzer, pending before
the house, providing for such a de
partment. The federation always
favored such a measure and is doing
all It can to promote testimony of
this new branch.
Washington, Dec. 30.—-The prison
population of the United States on
January 1, 1910, was 113,579 and the
number of commitments during the
year was 479,763, according to a prelim
inary statement of prison statistics
made today by Director of the Census
Durand. These figures include every
class of offense from vagrancy to first
degree murder.
The ratio of prisoners to population
on January 1 1910, was 125 to 100,000
and the ratio otxsommltments to popu
lation during the year 522, to 100,000.
Thus at the beginning o^ the year
1910, one person out of every 800 in
the United States greeted the new
year in prison, and during the year
1910, for every. 190 persons in the total
population, there was one commitment
The number of committnen^s does not
represent that many^diffwent persons,
because the persons comitteir include
many “repeaters.”
The number of/prisoners in propor
tion to population was smallest in
South Dakota, 48 per 100,000 pop^a-
tion, and largest in Nevada, 353 per
100,000 population, and the number of
commitments in proportion to popmar
tion was smallest in North Carolina
123 per 100,000 population, and largest
in Arizona 2,992 per 100,000 popula
tion. '

but privately, it was learned on undis-
putable authority, the Italian ambassa- j
dor wrote to Mr. Thomas that he could;
not attend. /The real reason for his
failure to come, said ^r. Thomas, was;
because the l^ing had ordered him to j
stay away because Italy was at pres-j
ent at war, and, also, that it may be
rather embarrassing to see the Turk-|
ish and Italian amh^ssador at a;
peace dinner.
