demanding the label on every article.
Mr.. Clarke is making a special ap-
peal to the women members of or
ganized labor and to the wives and
women relatives Of the union men, eX-
planning to them that if they demand
the label on all the merchandise they
buy it viii be only a few years before
the merchants viii be compelled TO
handle only union made goods in self
protection.
Mr. Clark says there is greater de-
mand for union made shoes now than
ever before in the history of the or
ganizatiOn. He says that prison made
shoes are gradually being eliminated,
and the time will come when there
viii be none but union made shoes on
the market. He said the cOnvicts of
America made eight million pairs Of
shoes last year and that they obtained
an average of A cents a day for their
work, and that these shoes were sold
in direct competition with the pro-
duct Of union labor, at the same price.
Mr.. Clarke also is interested in doing
away with the child labor in the fac
tories and obtaining for the women
workers the same hours men enjoy and
rate Of wages commensurate with
the work they do. He said the aver
age woman worker gets 40 percent
less for days work than do men, and
that. some men get only $3.50 a day.
he thinks that when the union label is
universally used il will do away with
ali strikes and make possible the set
ting OF all wage disputes by arbitra-
ton.
