Enemies Of the union movement CON.
tinually characterize it as a menace,
but do NOT explain themselves, for the
very good reason that in nearly every
such case the person who enters such
denunciatory remarks is either en-
gagged in some work or business in
which his personal desires are for the
moment at least thwarted by the ex-
istence of unions or he is a pleader
for some friends or clients with such
interests.
1t makes big difference whose OK
is being gored.
Many employers Of labor will broad
ly approve of labor unions when there
are no questions in controversy within
their own establishment, only to round
ly denounce the unions at the first sign
of dissa tisfaction in any department of
their business.
Take Van Cleave, for instance He
always proclaimed that he believed in
labor unions ''of the right kind" but
his conduct showed he did not wish to
have any in his esta ablishment. and
at that point he began to talk about
the menace of unions
Kirby. being president of union
fighting association of employees. calls
unionism a menace. So do Post and
Parry.
Eliot talks glibly about alleged de-
fects or dangers in unionism. OF which
he knows nothing by practical expert
ence and can only represent the preju-
diced views of employing interests
with whom he is friendly or upon
whom he depends.
There are other broader minded men,
some Of whom are employers, who rec
ognize that unions are a necessity to
the workers: that without unions the
workers would be crushed out of exist
ence; that wages would be so low If
fixed by the unchecked desires of the
meanest of the employers that home
life would be destroyed. education de-
MED to children, proper nourishment
denied to the workers and the future
existence of the workers made impos-
sible.
They recognize the unions as stand
ing for the home, the family. educa-
ton. progress. civilization and poster
ity-a menace to all foes of these and
to nothing else.
The unions may well be proud of the
enemies they have made.-Shoe Work
