LABOR NOTES OF
VIDE INTEREST
Correspondent Speaks in Favor of
Educating the Children to the
Features of Unionism.

1t is of the utmost Importance that
the rank and file of organized labor BIZ
fully informed upon all questions. lg-
norance and prejudice have kept the
workers under the yoke in all ages. Our
local unions should devote at least one
meeting a quarter to fair and free dis
cussion and frank exchange of opinion
II all members sincerely strive to under
stand one another, many a blunder will
be avoided and passion and hate will
fade away before the warm rays of peace
and happiness.
AT an early age the children should
be taught the ethics and principles of
unionism. 1t is needed for the future
generations. Children are the parents
of the future, and the industrial cars
who have robbed labor of the product Of
its toll also want the children and the
future; they want it ALL and then more.
The only way to check their greed is by
educating the workers and their chill
dren. Labor does not want, and it does
not need, and it cannot use, guns, dag
gers and dynamite in its struggle for
freedom. Those weapons of brutality
belong to the enemy, which is entrenched
in its castles of tradition and customs
OF bygone ages. The vision of labor
must be towards the future and the
key that will unlock its door is mental
development Of the masses. That is the
greatest force for victorious, progressive
and permanent peace
The day Of deliverance may be far in
the distance, but the workers can hasten
its coming by stimulating in the right
direction the mental development of
themselves and their children, in place
of leaving it in the hands of their en-
emies; and while engaged in this impor
tant task, labor, when sorely oppressed.

absorbing topic OF conversation has
been the prospects for a heavyweight
championship battle before another

The consensus of opinion Is that

chance, and that he VIII delay matters

terms 10 those less fortunate beings
who would DO battle for the title.
Whether or no his demands are granted
by Mcintosh or any other promoter has
no bearing on the question.

sides. The chance Burns gave him at
the championship was worth more than
a guarantee Of the big end OF the purse,
especially when there appeared TO be
little risk in losing out in the attempt
Johnson is mighty lucky thar the
public has stood for him so long The
fans would hardly have tolerated in a
white man what they have overlooked
in the negro. And this because they
would otherwise be accused Of race
prejudice. But the people who make
the game profitable are fast becoming
disguised with the stalling methods Of
this fellow. This is patent to those who
keep in touch with the sport.
It would be an entirely different mat
Ter if there was no one qualified to
meet the champion But McNey. Lang
ford and Jeanette. three Of his own
color, have the public approval and
have long been begging for opportuni- !
ties TO fight for the title. These men
