Michiaan Copper Strike.

The strike of the copper miners
threatens to paralyze Michigan's great
copper industry for months unless a
settlement can be reached. With $780,
900 in cash contributed by the Illinois
Mine Workers, $4,000 by the United
Brewery Workers and $4,000 drawn
from the treasury of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners. there is enough real
money in the hands of the strike lead
ers to ward off restitution among the
workers and to pay strike benefits.
The federation will collect an emergen-
cy strike assessment of 50 from each
of its 10000 members for September.

CANADA'S STRIKE LAW.
Provisions of the Act and Its Operation
For Six Years.


We were forced to look conditions in
the face. We did it and evolved an
act to meet those conditions and SINH
lar ones which we felt might arise in
the future, writes w. l.. Mackenzie
King in the Worlds Work.
The provisions of the act are very sim
ple Whenever a strike or lockout is
threatened in any one of these indus
tries the parties. If unable to adjust
their differences amicably, must refer
them to board for settlement before
such strike or lockout can legally
take place If the men are going to
strike they must serve notice on the
government that unless board is APP
pointed Il strike will take place. If
the management proposes lockout 1t
must serve a similar notice on the gov
eminent.
When such a notice has been served
in compliance with the terms of the
act the minister of labor calls on each
of the parties to name member of
the board. These two members have
the opportunity to name third mem
Der, who shall be the chairman. If
they are unable to agree within rea-
sonable time the minister of labor
himself appoints chairman. If either
party fails to name member of the
board the minister of labor appoints
some one to serve on the board as the
representative of the party defaulting
in making an appointment.
The board has all the powers of
court Of record. 1t may compel the
production of documents. it may sub
poena witnesses. it may take evidence
under oath.
After meeting. if a settlement can be
effected. the board simply reports to
the government the settlement of the
difference. If no settlement is effected
the board publishes report of the dis
pute. This is given to the press and
public and sent broadcast throughout
the land. 1t sets out the boards opin-
ion of the real trouble and what, in its
opinion, ought to be done to prevent
strike or II lockout.
There the function of the govern
ment ends. There is no compulsion
on either party to accept the finding
of the board. There is no restraint on
the parties. Once they have had this
inquiry they may do just as they
please about the strike or lockout.
This act has now been on the statute
books for more than six years. A COM
plete record of it's operation from the
end of March, 1907. to the end Of
March. 1913. shows that during that
time there have been altogether 145
applications for boards.
OF the l45 applications for boards
received during six years strikes were
averted or ended in all cases save
eighteen-that is to say. In all cases
save. on an average. three in every
year. There have been isolated cases
where men have struck without know
ing that the act was on the books, but
in these cases the differences have
been settled under the law almost i'm
mediately after its provisions became
known

ADVOCATE OF PEACE.

The greatest advocate of peace
between employer and employed
is the union label. The factory
that is entitled to the use of the
union label OH its products and
uses it seldom has any trouble
to contend with. If. however, a
disagreement should arise the
way has been paved for solu-
ton through the previous getting
together of both parties to the
question. The use of the label
has been the factor which points
out the proper way of getting to-
gether and agreeing on basis
of settlement.
The union label is an emblem
of freedom, of the concerted eff
forts of men to combat tyranny
and oppression. The union label
stands for the home, the bulwark
of good government; for higher
education. for sanitary working
conditions. for the abatement of
child labor. for the freedom of
the toiling millions. the abolish
ment of the sweatshop and ev
erything for the uplift of the toll
ing masses. not to the detriment
of the employer, but for the mu-
tual benefit of all.

UNION STABILITY.

. That the trade union movement
: is becoming more stable each
. year as it grows older is proved
: by the fact that it holds its own
with less fluctuations during the
periods of good times. when en-
. ployment is plenty, and the
periods when employment is less
. plentiful. 1t proves also that ed
. ucation is sending the roots of
: the union movement deeper and
. deeper into the fabric of the So
: cial life. The workers are
. realizing that in the trade union
: there is a permanency of purpose
. and good that was not seen in
years gone by, when it was the
: habit to drop their membership
in the union when slack times
: came around They have learned
that the union is of more benefit
: in slack times than it used to be.
In addition to this. it has been
: raised to a higher plane Of use
/. fulness in protecting the most
: vital interests Of the workers at

FOR EASTER HATS
Small and Medium Sized Shapes
to Be Worn, and Ribbon and
Floral Trimmings Are to Be
Cleverly Featured.

~OMING early as Easter does
this year, woman's interest Is
W turning to thoughts Of hats
Advance millinery displays are
crowded, and the consensus of opin-
ion is that small and medium sized hats
will lead In popularity.
Upturned brims are seen on some Of
the smartest spring models, and these
brims are adjusted in quaint and strlk-
ing ways. For instance, they may be
slashed open so that the trimming en-
circling the crown shows, or the brim
may be twisted, indented or adjusted
at some novel angle.
The crowns are Of medium height
and have less of the freak aspect than
had those we have been having for
some time. The popular tam crown is
still to be seen and is made Of both
fabrics and straw. The rolling brim
is expected to have considerable vogue
The long line from front to back is
emphasized In many new models. This
is called the aeroplane effect
The double brim idea is carried out
on some hats by means Of plated or
fulled ribbons.
Hemp is to be the popular material
for hats. Milan straws, horsehair
braids, peanut, panama and leghorn
are also to be worn.
AS to combinations. various straws
are used with one another. They are
also combined with woven fabrics,
such as plush velvet, satin or crepe de
chine, and with the new brocaded cot
ton material in white and in colOrs
Floral trimmings are to be again fea-
tured. Wreaths, bands and clusters Of
flowers are used to good effect Some
of the wreaths end in cluster in the
back to give the long line effect.
Ribbons are to be very popular. Bull
garlan and Persian effects will be fea-
tured. Ribbon bands, ruches and fiat
bows will be used in connection with
floral and feather trimmings, Failles,
