a NEW industrial profession has
n seen the light in New England.
The men who have adopted it
call themselves 'counselors on labor
problems" says the Literary Digest
Their aim, We are told by Robert G.
Valentine, former commissioner Of
indian affairs, who described it in a
paper read before the seventh an
nuaI Sycamore Sociological con-
ference at Cape Cod in July, is TO
serve. not the employer, not the en-
employed, but rather the industry It
self It may be best for the industry
that both master and man should suf-
fer; If this is the case, the new ser
wants of Industry do not hesitate TO
advise a course of action that VII have
this result Their object, also, is pre-
ventiOn rather than cure; they are
neither strike makers nor strike break
ers, but rather strike preventers. The
following extracts from Mr. Valentine
paper are from a report in the Boston
Transcript DULY 81:
TT is time that the methods of
science be applied to the human reia-
tons in industry; that an intelligent
study and clear statement be made
both on the part of employers and la
at work think and know and feel. in
order that such grasp of the situation
be obtained that We can do really eff
fective work toward securing Industrial
peace
.'WeIfare work. trade union investi-
cations, governmental and philan-
thropic activities do not cover the
ground, either because they represent
interested parties. or are necessarily
limited in scope, or because, as in the
case of arbitration, they have to walt
till the trouble arises before they can
act
The counselor on labor problems
furnishes the complement to these ex-
listing activities He is not an inter
ested party He may be called in by
employer, employees, or the public. but
he takes an unbiased stand between
them. He serves the industry.
He acts first as consultant. He ad-
vises an employer, for instance, to i'm
prove the sanitary conditions of his
factory in order that his position to-
ward the union demands NAV be
strengthened; or he advises a group of
employees to strike for the machinery
of betterment rather than for particu-
lar points of benefit
He instals a system of records, by
means of which both employers and
employees may keep in touch with the
relations throughout the industry; he
helps IN organizations, acting as as
slstant to the regular management so
that the work done becomes an integral
part of things and does not crumble
behind him. He makes Industrial sur
veys, assists in education campaigns,
and supplies data for useful legislation
His best work is thus essentially
preventive, and done in advance of any
dispute In word, he aims to reacn
at the source of those troubles which
endanger both profits and wages. In
the spirit of science he seeks to dis
cover the true laws of the industry
that he may place them at the service
of his client whether that client be the
man who must earn profits or STOP or
the men and women who must have op-

CHILDREN IN LOW
WAGE INDUSTRIES.

1t is a severe Indictment by which
the industrial life of the nation is ar
raigned in the statement made by Owen
r. Lovejoy, secretary of the national
child labor committee, when he declares
that statistics show that over 1000, 900
children did not enter the public
schools this fall because they are at
work in some 200 occupations. 1t is
also stated that all the girls and at
least nine-tenths of the boys who leave
school under 16 years enter IOW-Wage
industries and remain unskilled work
ers throughout their lives
Mr. LOveiOy estimates that about one
haIf OF those now at work under 16 in
all occupations are white American
children, one or both of whose parents
are native born. American families are
as ready as foreign families TO let chill
dren enter the factory before they are
10 The Connecticut state commits
sion, IN study of more than II 600
women and girls representing Il racial
groups, found a larger percentage of
Americans with American fathers
among the workers under 16. than
among the older workers
The latest volume of the federal re-
port of the condition of woman and
enid wage earners in the United States
makes a similar showing. Of the %
racial groups into which the % O00
workers are divided. only four races
involving less than One-tenth of the
total, had larger percentage of work
erS under 10 than the native white
Americans. Of all the workers Of all
races studied in % industries in II
states, one in u was under 16 years:
OF the American workers. in the same
industries and the same states. one in
II was under 16 years of age
The national child labor committee
suggests that in the light of the widely
recognized evils of factory work for
young people, it would be well for all
industrial states to consider following
the example of Ohio, which has lust mt
into operation a law forbiddinE en-

The laborer is worthy of his hire
What does this mean? Its only inter
pfetation is that the man who works
is entitled to a decent wage OF com
pensation for his work, a wage that
will guarantee a respectable and indie
pendent living for a man and his
family. Hence masters who take ad-
vantage of the dullness of the times,
or surplus of labor, and pay starva-
ton wage, are guilty of an injustice
to their fellowmen, and the sin is one
that cries to heaven for vengeance,
namely, 'defrauding laborers of their
honest dues, at least in part Hence
1t follows that the working classes
are justified in uniting together to
compel capitalists in legitimate way
to pay them decent wage Rev.
