the trade. but also the layman."

labor law, the compulsory education law
and the free text book law. Safety APP
pliances in all branches of hazardous in

pensation acts, he included as part of
labor's successful legislative program.
Secretary Morrison averred that the
trades union Is not a trust and is wide
open to all men in crafts who wanted to
join, whose character qualifications can
be upheld. He further maintained that
while not opposed to labor-saving ma
chinery, the trades union did demand a
rightfu share in the benefits of inven-
ton which gave easier conditions of labor
and shorter work day.
Not Ally of Saloons.
Defending the labor element against
the impression that they and the saloon
are in close alliance, Mr.. Morrison said
that it was the attitude of the wealthy
toward the saloons that forced them in
the residence section of the laboring
class Organized labor, he said, is a pow
erful medium to fight intemperance. In
large cities the wealthy class forced the
saloons into the poorer sections Of the
city in order to rid their own neigh
bOrhOodS of them.
Following the address, there was a live
ly discussion and Mr.. Morrison was asked
questions on educational training of
wage-earners, fundamental economies in
terest, rents and profits, as factors in the
ultimate solution of the problems of
