the festival, says that the committees
have suggested this scheme for the
financing Of the project The plan for
raising the $4,000 required for carry
ing out the festival association plans
calls for the sale of 1000 shares at the
face value of $40, subscribers to be
held responsible only to the extent of
their subscription, 25 per cent to be
paid down at the time of subscribing,
% per cent thirty days afterward and
the remaining so per cent thirty days
before the opening of the festival.
Each subscriber to have the option of
receiving back at the end of the j
tival and the report of the finance
committee a proportionate amount of
their subscriptions not used for festi-
val purposes; such proportion to be
determined, If there is any loss, and
the sale of seats not sufficiently large
to meet the disbursement by an audit
ing committee, or such an amount over
and above, if the subscribers prefer,
to remain as sinking fund for the
carrying out of future festival plans.

Union to Establish a Loan Fund.


Minneapolis Typographical union No.
AZ is considering new constitution
and bylaws, most important feature
Of which is the establishment Of a
loan fund for needy members. This Is
being established to circumvent the
loan sharks who have preyed on work
ingmen in that city. Under the pro-
posed law members will be able to
borrow up to $50 If they can get three
sureties, and loans must be paid back
in weekly installments. A member Sc
curing loan Of $50 Is required to pay
into the treasury $3.50 week, for $25
he must pay $1.5O, while for $40 and
less borrowers are required to reim-
burse the treasury at the rate of 81 a
week until the full amount of the loan
is paid. While there is no fixed inter-
est charge, borrowers are required to
pay 50 for a. $50 loan. but there is no
additional fee except aspenalty of %
cents week for defaulted payments.
The revenue derived from fixed charges
and penalties brings the rate of profit
up to about 10 per cent year.

Grand total Observation-Disclosures IS, 694, 395 -
An interesting feature of DR.. Warne's
article is the statement which he pre-
sents as showing the attitude Of the
unions on the subject Thus he quotes
John Mitchell, ex-president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, as saying:
To understand what the trades unions
are doing to combat poverty 1t Is neces
sary to consider the causes of poverty.
Poverty Is the result of unemployment,
low wages, disease, accident and misfor-
tune. The trades unions have sought, with
marked success, to remove poverty by Sc
curing for the wage earners a rate Of
wages sufficiently high to enable work.
men and their families to live in a man.
ner comfortable to American standards
They Uhe unions) have accumulated large
funds which are used to relieve workmen
and their families who may be In distress
as result of accident death, sickness or
unemployment. Last year there was paid
for the relief of the unemployed members
of trades unions out OF the funds In the
union treasures not less than 100000
This expenditure does not include several
millions of dollars paid in strike and lock-
out benefits.
James Duncan, first vice president of
the American Federation Of Labor, in
his statement of labors campaign
against poverty enumerates the reduc-
ton Of the working hours per day and
the increase of wages as the most i'm
portant contributions toward the cause,
and he adds:
I contend that the recurrence of pam
les has been changed by trades unions re-
ducing working hours per day and to
three-quarters or two-thirds instead Of
full time, so as to keep all employed
also in refusing to reduce wages during
dull times.
Again, experience proves that the toiler
who is not overworked and who receives
fair compensation for his labor is sober
thrifty living citizen, which fact gives
him better chance to guard against pow
erty. Thus again, prevention being better
than a cure, we score. Judged from any
standpoint, trades unions are performing
their share in the campaign against pow
erty.

CONQUER|NC POVERTY
What Trades Unions Have Done
to Lessen Human Misery.
SOCIAL UPLIFT THEIR AIM.

DR.. Warne Gives Credit to Organized
Labor For Its Work In the Proven
ton Of Poverty by the Removal of Its
Dominant Causes.
DR.. Frank Julian Warne, graduate
of the University Of Pennsylvania and
long an earnest student of social and
industrial questions, takes up in the
current number of the Metropolitan
Magazine in the course of his study of
'oThe Conquest of Poverty" the par
Hcular part played in that warfare by
the labor unions. He takes the gen
eral position that the primary and dom
inant causes of poverty are not indi-
vidual or social defects of character.
but those economic forces over which
the individual victim usually has no
control, and he makes the claim that
it is chiefly to the labor unions that
the credit is due for the prevention of
poverty by the removal of its causes
that is, the regulation Of factory man.
agement, the provision Of safety appli-
ances and the general enforcement Of
better sanitary conditions. The record
of death and casualty in the Industries
of the country is briefly reviewed, and
authorities are quoted to show that
were the same precautions taken and
care exercised as in certain foreign
countries a vast proportion of the ac-
cidents would be avoided and thou
sands of human lives saved
From this DR.. Warne is led to con-
sideration of the movement for
change in the American law and prac-
tice concerning the employers liability
for accidents to workers, and he says
that the brunt Of the struggle for the
prevention Of industrial accidents is
being borne by the labor unions. In
this connection he gives the following
table, not as a complete showing of the
relief work of labor organizations, but
as suggestion Of what is being done:
