CARING FOR UNEMPLOYED.
Plan that Works successfully at
Berne, switzerland.

WASHINGTON, June IA. Eugene Ger
main, United States consul at Berne, has
sent to the Department of State an account
of the workings of a novel enterprise there,
being a commission for the unemployed ere
ated by law. A committee of seven. made
up OF representatives of the labor unions,
employers and the municipal government,
undertakes to provide employment for sub
scribers out of work or TO maintain them
when awaiting employment. Subscribers
when working pay 8 cents per month dues.
There Is also an Appropriation of $1,000 from
the City Council and charitable subscrip-
tions. Subscribers out of work for two
weeks are entitled to benefits ranging from
20 TO 80 cents per day, about equal there
in purchasing power TO our dollar here.
Benefits are paid only TO persons innocent
ly out of employment, and persons leaving
their work willfully and without just cause
are debarred from benefits. Comfortable
headquarters are provided at which the I'M
employed report twice daily, and may make
themselves comfortable. The consul gives
other details of the system, which, he says,
IL satisfactory in its result to the authori-
ties and the citizens. One feature worthy
OF mention is that every member accepted
work promptly when provided for by the
association. thus ceasing at once TO be an
unnecessary burden.

FEDERATIONIsTs DENOUNCED.
They Would Not Exchange Working
Cards with the X. of l..

ST. LOUIS. June 14-In speaking of the
interchange of working cards which the
F~ederationists, at the recent labor confer
ence. would not allow. Secretary Hayes, of
the Knights Of Labor. said: This was one
of the principal questions that came up. and
1t was tabled. 1 tell you there was very
little accomplished at this session. 1t is a
hard matter to accomplish much good when
the Federation Is bucking against u.s."
7. Il. Mcclure, of the executive board of
the knights of Labor, said: This inter
change OF working cards was the only thing
that could accomplish the one thing re-
quired: that IS. concerted action by wage
earners. The Federationists would like it If
we would break up the Knights of Labor
and join them in a body. Now, why should
we do this? We are willing TO recognize
their cards. and we do IT. The carpenters
in New York, without a knight of Labor
card. could get no work. We are in the
majority there and we recognize the Fed
erationists, but when they are in the as
cendant do they reciprocate? Not much.
They made no proposition to us; we did all
the proposing. and / cannot say that after
all there was much accomplished"
