G|[[E7TE CROWD
DON'T PLAY FAIR
President Of Minnesota Employ
ers' Association Trying to
Kill Compensation Bill.
REFUSES TO ACCEPT
COMMITTEE CHANGES
Pretends to Show That Bill Will
. Place Employers at Labor's
Mercy-Not True.

George M. Gillette. president of
the Minnesota Employers associa-
ton, has sent a letter to all Of the
to protest against the passage Of the
workingmen's compensation bill, as
amended by the committees Of the
legislature.
Mr.. Gillette and his colleagues sub
mitted a bill to the legislature that
was fair in many respects, but which
contained a number of provisions
that would prove detrimental to the
interest Of labor. and would serve to
hamper the ends Of justice.
The true friends Of workingmen's 8
compensation protested against the
passage of tho bill in it's original
form. They urged the committees
Of the legislature to remedy certain
bad features of the bill. They made
their argument so strong that the
committees agreed in part to adopt
: the claims Of the true friends Of
workingmen's compensation.
Friend (?) of Farmer.
For political reasons the farmer
was excluded from the bill. No just
reason can be given why. this was
done, except that it Is believed no
.workingmen's compensation act can
pass this session Of the legislature if
the farmer is included. So the COM
mittee, anxious to get something out
of this legislature, agreed for two
years at least to exclude the farmer
and also the domestic servant and
casual labor. a.
+ Now comes George NJ. Gillette and
asks the Minnesota employers to
protest against the bill on the ground
~ that 4laborerss and domestic
servants are eliminated from the bill.

WOULD Berger VOTE
I: ! !: FOR L|ABNIT:Y|. BILE?
Wisconsin Socialist Did Vote. for
Federal Bill and Gave Good
Reason,

What would Victor Berger do II
he were a member Of the Minnesota
legislature? Would he vote for the
workingmen's compensation bill, or
would he vote against it?
During the closing days of the last
congress Mr.. Berger did vote in favor
Of the federal workingmen's compen-
sation bill, which contains practical
ly the same provisions as the. Min
nesota bill.
The federal bill had the support of
President Gompers of the American
Federation Of Labor and the off,
cials Of the railroad brotherhoode.
Nevertheless, it was bitterly opposed
by the railroad workers, the chief
class that the bill Was supposed to
benefit.
Victor Berger branded the bill as
a weak and inadequate measure, and
yet he voted to pass the BILL: and
this is the reason he gave for voting
for It:
What induced me to favor the
measure said Berger, ::'is the fact
that this is the only civilized nation
on eaEth--I do not call Russia civil
ised-in which the social RESPONSE
bility of the nation toward the work.
ers is not recognized, particularly to-
ward railroad workers., We Social
lists hold that the workingman, while
he may work for an individual en-
ployer, is, none-@the less doing work
which is useful and socially necessary,
and therefore he is taking a social
risk which society as a whole must
recognize.
I'm this bill. weak and inadequate
as it ais, this great principal is rec
ognized for the first time by the
United States. 1t sets a precedent
which makes possible legislation pro-
viding for old. age pensions, insur-
ance for unemployed and all of the
other measures Of the sort proposed
by Socialism.
"While admit that from ,35 to so
per cent Of all damage judgments go
to lawyers" said: Berger, :"anf while
the bill looks to me very much az if
the claim agents wanted to get even
with the ambulance-chasing lawyers,
while the poor worker pays the bills,
yet / favored the bill for the reasons
I have stated"
The Sutherland bill was a, corpora
tion job, written by corporation law
which was of very vital importance
as a basis for more complete reme-
dial legislation.

FRENCH WOMEN PAID
STARVATION WAGES
Statistics from France Show Aw.
full Conditions Among High
Glass Dressmakers.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The
French government has recently pub
lished a table showing the wages paid
working women in France.
Women ironers, in dress goods en-
ployment, are sometimes paid as high
as cents an hour, 3 cents an hour
being the minimum. Their working
day is ten hours and over. ...'
Dressmakers' pay runs from, to
5 cents an hour. Their working day
never runs less than ten hours, and at
times their payment has been record
ed as low as 2 cents per hour.
Waistmakers work ten hours day,
the average pay never exceeding As
cents. Women embroiderers' wages
run from a minimum Of cents to a
maximum of 10 cents per, hour for
especially clever workers. The. mini.
mum rate for milliners is 8 cents, and
rarely ever exceeds cents per hour.
Consul Hurst makes the observa-
ton: There Is q growing solidarity
among women wage-earners in
France, and there is every reason to
believe that the average wages paid

come effective July l next.
On and after that date the sender

LABOR Will DEMAND Z
=. TRADE DISEASE ACT
congress Will Next Be Asked to
Pass Law Compensating
For Sickness.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-A bill
to provide compensation for employees
of the United States suffering injuries
or occupational diseases in the course
Of their employment, was introduced
in congress just before adjournment
by Representative Wilson of Pennsyl-
vania and Senator Kern of Indiana.
The bill has been drawn after careful
investigation by the American Asso-
citation Of Labor legislation and is to
supplant the present law which
among other weaknesses embraces
only one-third Of the $4,000 federal
employees, grants no relief for inca
pacity lasting less than IS days, and
as the most liberal benefit grants only
one years wages even for total blind
ness or death.
The Kern-Wilson bill includes all
government employees, It reduces the
waiting time from Is days to three,
and grants &C. 2-3 per cent Of wages
during entire period Of disability.
Special provision is made for the pre-
vention Of accidents and occupational
diseases in navy yards and govern
ment workshops, and a new feature
is compensation for occupational dis
eases, such as lead poisoning. If
congress passes this bill Uncle Sam
will come much nearer being a
"model employer and America will
have one compensation law up to the
standard set by England, Switzerland
and Germany.
