an abSurdity TO expect TO eliminate the
abuses in great corporations by state

an argument that such matters should
be left to the states. because more than
one state pursues the policy of Great
Ing on easy terms corporations which
are never operated within that state
at all. but in other states whose laws
they ignore. The national government
alone can deal adequately with these
great corporations. To try 10 deal
with them i'm an incorporate, dcstruc-

Much can he done by the government
in labor matters merely by giving pub

of labor has done excellent work Of
this kind in many different directions.
l shall shortly lay before you in a spe-

which are more or less at work every

the department Of commerce and Ia
Dor. through the labor bureau, should
compile and arrange for the congress

Unionism In Government Offices.
There is no objection to employees OF
the government forming or belonging
10 unions, but the government can mel
Their discriminate for nor discriminate
against nonunion men who are IN its
employment or who seek TO be en-
ployed under it, Moreover ii is very
grave improperly for government en-
for the purpose Of eXtorting improperly
high salaries from the government.
Especially is this true of those within
the classified service The letter car
rlers, both municipal and rural, are as
a whole an excellent body Of public
servants. They should be amply paid.
But their payment must be obtained
by arguing their claims fairly and hon
orably before the congress and not by
banding together for the defeat or
those congressman who refuse TO give
promises which they cannot In con-
science give. The administration has
taken steps to prevent and punish
abuses of this nature, but it will he
wise for the congress to supplement
this action by legislation.
