To provide work for the idle affects
the supply Of and demand for labor
and favorably affects wages-as all

desire of the worker to have some
time for recreation and amusement
stimulates the demand for shortet
hours.
AS our wage-earners become better
educated they become more deter

They desire more leisure that their

They desire their fellow-men to be

that to preserve them their fellow

LabOr'S Changing Ideal

~ RGANIzED labor's ideal Of a
short workday changes with
varying conditions. At one time
it was customary TO work 12 or
more hours per day but as civilization
advanced the working day has been
steadily reduced.
In reducing the hours Of labor the
unions have been chiefly instrumental,
as they have in various trades estab-
lished a shorter workday and then fol
lowed it up by legislation wherever
they have been strong enough
Though eight hours" may be the
objective which organized labor now
seeks to accomplish, it does lot fol-
low that eight hours is ideal, or that
It will be the goal Of the future. The
short-hour movement rests funda-
mently upon necessity.
The constant improvement in ma
clineiy and consequent displacement
of labor. together with the further dis
placement Of labor by the tendency
toward consolidation IN all lines Of in
dustry, must ultimately compel us to
choose between three things First,
we may shorten the hours Of labor to
distribute opportunity for employment,
or, second. We may tax property to
support the idle, or, third, we may
have revolution"
This mastery and unaswerable sum
ming up Of the underlying causes OF
the short-hour movement was by
statesman, no less than the late
Thomas b. Reed
It follows that as long as machinery
and methods continue so to improve
that less and less hours are required
for productive labor, the ideal work
ing day will be shorter and shorter.
Labor does not expect to live with
out work-it complains that there are
too many who live without work, and
