Child Labor In New Jersey.

In the published report Of the New
Jersey department Of labor for the
year 1909 Commissioner Lewis T. Bry-
ant expresses the opinion that the
child labor situation and general fac
tory conditions were never better in
that state and adds: ''The laws con-
trolling the operation Of the depart
ment Of labor are, as whole, very
satisfactory, but 1t is, Of course, a fire.

they are sometimes useful in calling
the attention of the workers to the
necessity of thorough organization and
federation, of the inevitable obligation
of bringing the yet unorganized work
ers into the union, Of uniting the hith-
erto disconnected local unions into ma
tional and international unions and Of
effecting yet higher unity by the af-
filiation of all national and interna-
tional unions in one grand federation.
All of this leads to the recognition
Of the urgent need Of extraordinary
effort now by every international Or
ganization and by every state fedora
ton, central labor union and local
trades union, through the appointment
of special organization committees or
by other means which may be deemed
most advisable, to build up unions and
more closely unite the labor movement

Il Opposes Only the Foes Of Education
and Progress.
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,
It makes a big difference whose OK
is being gored.
Many employers Of labor will broad
~ 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 dissatisfaction 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 establishment, and
at that point he began to talk about
the menace" Of unions.
Kirby, being president Of union
| fighting association of employees. calls
pnionism 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

It is as important to the union
worker that he patronize stores that
carry lines of UNION MADE goods
as it is that they observe the require
ments of their own union. Many
workers are not informed as to what
lines are made under fair working con
ditions. There is store on Hewitt
avenue, 1907 is the number, where are
carried some strictly UNION MADE
lines Notable among these are Salmon
