society. But society pays no heed. You
and 1 leave the laundry business to the
laundry people, and they don't know how
to solve the social problem in their trade.
The employers, unorganized and in close
competition, couldn't raise wages. And,
of course, the employees, also in competi-
tion and not only with one another, but
with the people out of work in New York
who pressed for jobs-the laundry work.
ers were helpless until they organized.
Now the business men who own the
laundries objected to the unions: of course,
they did. Unions are organized to use
force to compel higher wages, and, sure
will abuse its power. Not only the laun-
drymen we all know that And the abuse
by labor of its organized power Is an
evil, as we shall see. But think we can
learn to distinguish between the good
and the evil uses of unions. Whether
we can or no, however. unless society is
ready and able to protect the race interest
i'm that part of society which washes and
irons our clothes: If We leave 1t to the
laundry workers themselves to solve their
own problems we must see that the or
ganization of the laundry workers union
is right, from the social. point Of view.
Bad for Business.
Bad from the business mans point of
view. because 1t will interfere with his
liberty and hurt his business by stopping
it, If necessary, to enforce demands, the
laundry union may seem bad to the laun-
dry workers also, from their point of
view, and for the same reason.
Most Of the laundry workers didn't
belong to the union. and don't now. and
they opposed the strike, and they would
prefer now to go back to work. The
union leaders have to send strikers out
as pickets to persuade the would-be
scabs to sacrifice their immediate indi-
vidual interest to the welfare Of the
laundry workers as a whole This is bad,
too. There really should be some other
way to make the conditions of that part
of the community right. But. taking hui
man nature and the facts as they are.
we can see that unless the laundry work
ers are organized in numbers great enough
| to control the labor of the laundries as
the proprietors control the machinery
and the trade, the employers and the
employees cannot come together and bet
ter the conditions of the trade. There
| fore the union. the strike and the pick
citing Of the laundry workers are neces
| sary-from the social point Of view.

Why Low Wages Are Bad.

And that's why low wages are bad, and
long hours, and imperfect sanitation, and
child labor and-all the other evils OF
industrial labor. Not because these evils
hurt labor; not because some working
men hunger and some women starve; not
because some girls become prostitutes and
many children are so exhausted by early
work that they grow up to be buns,
drunkards and cripples That's the sem
tmental view Of labor which corresponds
counts; it counts with me. and it should
count. Of course, with everybody; an I'M
sympathetic race would not be a great
race. 1t would be deficient in art, litera-
ture and music But the sentimental
view is not the view to be taken in these
articles I think it is pitiful to see men
and women work too long for too little;
think it Is hell to have any part Of the
human race Overworked and underfed.
But tho point Of view I take as a re-
because labor Is SO large part of So
ciety that the sufferings of the workers
cannot help but injure the race. and their
well-being will make for the well-being
of society.
Apply this now. to our typical strike,
that of the laundry workers in New York
Men and women. boys and girls. they
were underpaid and overworked three
days OF the week In some steam laundr.es
which are insanitary and at some ma
chimes which. II is said. injure the worker
for life. We needn't be sentimental about
them, because. from their own account.
the life In the laundries had a good deal
Of fun In It, especially for the young
people. But noticed that the grown
ups were pale. thin. rather weak and
more or less ailing. They were not good
stock. And there are some 10000 of
them: in the next generation their de-
Of their children may be listless. weak,
good-for-nothings of the kind we say
don't deserve any more than they get,

milk problem. His plan is simplicity
itself and when carried out city folk
need no longer worry about how
many bridges the milkman crosses

may see the fluid drawn fresh into

Mayor disclosed his plan in a recent

IF you boys wanted to- he said.
"it would be a mighty good idea for
you to rig up a place for your JERSEYS

selling fresh from the pail from house
to house. Most all of you haze Jer-
