Trades unions make higher class
of workmanship. The most skilled ar
tisans of all trades are to be found in
their ranks, and great care is used in
securing new members to the end that
the standard of excellence is not low
cred by the admission of incompetent
men. A union card is an excellent
guarantee of skill. If the unions could
| only exercise their powers more fully
| than they are allowed to do in nearly
all the trades, there apprentice sys-
tens would be something more than
! is usually the case, systems in theory
only. The employer seeks only to pro-
duce goods at low cost. He cares
nothing about the instruction of ap-
! prentices.
| Trades unions care for their sick and
needy. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars are poured from their treasures
annually for charity, and~of this the
general public never hears word. 1t

the hopsetops They educate their
members on economic lines and with
out entering partisan politics teach
the workingman the true significance
of the ballot and the most effective
methods of it's use. All social and po-
litical reforms of Importance spring
from and are disseminated through
trades union agencies.
