INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS AND

The second report of the Labor and

wealth Bureau has recently been pub
iished. According to same, there are
621 separate unions in the six states

membership of 433J224, including H.

state organizations. The membership

unions and members has been record
ed during the last three years 51s per
cent of the 29,402 workers included in
these statistics were out of work in
1912. This may safely be taken as
representative for the worle of the
workers. Compared with the year
1891, the highest relative increase in
wages was sh d in the pound in
Victoria and the lowest 2 sh 4 d in the
pound in Queensland. According to

( CAPITALS UNSCRUPULOUS
TACTICS

The eye-opening story told in yester-
Eday,s Globe New York Globe, July 16)
by Miss Gertrude Barnum, general or
ganizer of the garment workers, con-
corning the activities of Morris Lubin
in Cleveland, shows that it is not safe
when there is a labor struggle to lodge
the blame for disorder and crime on
the Strikers.
Lubin, who broke down uder cross
examination, posed as "a garment
worker. He gave weapons to boys that
he corrupted. He led them to an at
tack that resulted in the death of a
strike-breaker. All this time he was
the paid agent of a detective agency
which had been hired by the Cloak
Manufacturers association. 1t is a
fair inference that he was instructed to
commit the crime that the blame might
be lodged on the striekrs. The con
splracy was successful. The strike
failed largely because of the public in
dignation aroused by the outrages pro-
NOTED by Lubin. When imposing SEN
tenee on Lubin, the trial Judge said:
am satisfied that you melted the
men to assault and violence and that
you have been in the employ of the
Manufacturers association from the
beginning Of the strike, while all the
time you have been drawing strike
benefits from the union.
In Lawrence, Breen confessed that
he planted dynamite in order to create
prejudice against the strikers. The
Mulhall letters furnish documentary
evidence of the methods used by him
and his associates to discredit the
unions. In Paterson the employers
have melted public officials and even
convicts to lawlessness. When dyna-
mite. is planted or bricks are thrown
or strikebreakers assaulted it does not
follow that the strikers are to blame |
Disorder is in the interest of the en-
ployers and it is duly provided by
thugs furnished By detective agencies.

EQUALITY
By Bernard Shaw

/ am not bound to keep my temper
with an imposture so outrageous, SO
objectly syncophantic as the pretense
that the existing inequalities of income
correspond to and are produced by
moral and physical inferiorities and
superfluiorities - that Barnato was
100000 times as great and good a
man as William Blake, and committed
suicide because he lost two-fifths Of
his superiority; that the life of LORD
-Anglesey has been on a far higher
plane than that of John Ruskin; that
Mademoiselle Lame de Pougy has been
raised by her successful sugar specula-

no sane person can be expected to
treat such impudent fo1lies with pa
thence, much less with respect.
The evil resulting from the existing
unequal distribution of wealth is so
enormous, SO intellectually greater than
any other evil, actual or conceivable,
on the face Of the earth, that it is
our first duty to alter it into an equal
distribution. The chief physical agent
needed for the change is a sufficiency
of cannon. The chief moral agent, a
sufficiency of character, which seems
to be the difficulty so far, the nation

WHAT THE MOVEMENT MEANS
BY Rohert Hnnfer


Socialism is an aspiration and a de
termination of the workers to become
masters of their own destiny:
Its aspiration is to establish an in
dustrial democracy the rule of the
workers over the means of life.
Its determination is to establish an
economic order in which the men who
use the tools of industry shall rule in
dustry instead of the present order in
which the men who own the tools of
industry rule those who use the tools
of industry.
Exactly what form that economic or
der will take We do not know. No man
con foretell what the workers viii do
when they actually become the masters
of industry.
But one thing is certain, and that Isl
You cannot have political democracy

cannot have Industrial democracy
where the people do not rule.
The really fundamental and essen
tial point, then, in Sociafisms is the
determination of the workers to be-
come the power that rules the. indus
trial world.
1t is then chiefly a movement of the
disinherited, a revolt against class
rule.
