LABOR Only DEMANDS
ITS R|GHTFUL SHARE
Money Having a Changing Value
4 Wage Rate Must Necessari-
g. ly Fluctuate.
Wages and Hours Of Labor Must
: Be Worked Out Upon An
y Evolutionary Basis
BY the Rev. Charles Stelzle.

Like most other reform move
ments, organized labor seeks to abol-
ish poverty. But it does not spend
it's time dreaming about a millennium
in which all wrongs shall be righted,
and all ills cured. Its leaders are
opportunists.
They are alert to the measure
which promises immeJiate though
only partial relief. They are con-
WINGED that the workingman is not
receiving his just share Of the COM
mon product. 800 .':
They are not prepared to state just
what that share shall be, but they
insist that we have not yet reached
the point in our industrial life when
the workingman should be satisfied
with his wages. 1t is not fair to
ask labor to specify any given amount
with which it promises to be salts
fled for all time.
Money has a changing value in
different sections of the country and
at different periods Of time. Also,
the development of our Industrial
life may be such as to completely
alter the relative value of the SER
vices of both employer and employee.
The Introduction of labor saving ma
chinery, for example, may revolutions
ize our chief Industries.
The workingman feels that he is
entitled to fair snare in the pro-
ducts of all improvements. He is
not ready to commit himself to any
contract which will prevent his Sc
curing future, and what will then be
conceded perfectly legitimate ad-
vances in his wages.
The increase in wages and the
shortening of hours Of labor-the
two principle points of contention be-
tween capital and labor-must be
worked out upon an evolutionary
basis such changes being made from
time to time as conditions warrant.
