RIGHTS OF UNIONS.
Must Be Respected as Factor IN the
Nations Industrial Life.

Must Be Respected as q Factor in the
Nations Industrial Life.
The manufacturer says he win not
deal with the union; be must deal with
the individual Why? II he is buying
a factory owned by dozen men he
does not insist on dealing with indi-
viduaIs. He is even willing to deal
with an accredited agent-a walking or
riding delegate, If you please--of the
company Then why should he haugh-
tily refuse to deal with the accredited
agent Of body Of workers?
He obtains the factory. His work
men ask him to sign a scale with the
union. He refuses. He will allow no
one to dictate what be shall pay or the
conditions of employment in his fac
tory. But he must sign agreements
with the corporations from whom he
buys his raw materials and with those
to whom he sells his finished prod
ucts. And these agreements are spe-
cific and exacting. Why does he refuse
to treat with his employees on the
same plane of business that he deals
with the others?
He champions the unhindered and
sacred liberty Of the American laborer.
He aligns himself to save him from the
despotism of the labor union. At the
same time he uses the shrewd skill and
ingenious and impressive influences Of
his business ability and prestige to
drive to the wall his own competitors
Why is he so jealous Of the life. liberty
and happiness of the nonunion Ameri-
can laborer and so vindictive against
his competitor In business?
If prices go down, If profits are too
low to suit him. he closes down his fac
tory and runs down to Washington to
see the president and perhaps go hunt
ing bears or fishing with him. If his
workmen find their wages too low and
strike he sends telegram to the gov
ernor. who sends another to the presi-
dent asking for troops to make his
workmen think they are thugs and reb-
els and intimidate them into accepting
submissively their lot Why does he
deny his workers the same right to
strike he claims and practices for him
self?
The American people are asking
these questions just now. They are
asking them in the spirit of democracy.
and they must have a democratic an
swer.
1t was the first American who said
in his farewell address: 1T will be
worthy Of free. enlightened and at no
distant period a great nation to give
to mankind the magnanimous and too
novel example Of people always
guided by an exalted sense Of justice
and benevolence." Guided by this
sense there can be but one solution of
the problem of labor and that is: The
labor union must be respected as a
rightful factor in the industrial affairs
Of the nation 1t must not be denied
the right of dealing with employers Of
labor 1t must stand on an equal plane
of authority with any organization Of
capital or business.--Los Angeles Citi-
