Odd. In Hospitals;
Standard Skin Remedy

How many hospital patients, suffer-
ing the frightful Itch, the raw scorch-
ing pain of skin disease. have been
soothed to sleep by a soothing fluid
washed in by the nurses hands?
That fluid is the famous D. D. D.

THE SUPERVISING NURSE of one
of our prominent Catholic institutions
(name of nurse and institute on appli-

'The disease had eaten her eyebrows
away. Her nose and lips had become
disfigured. Since the use Of d! d. D.
her eyebrows are growing, her nose
and face have assumed their natural

RESTRICTION OF OUTPUT.
Not Within the Power of Labor to
Prevent Production of Commodities.

Not Within the Power of Labor to
Prevent Production of Commodities.
Among many other things Of which
labor organizations are accused is the
restriction of output That Is held up
before the world as one of the most
wicked and indefensible practices of
labor leaders
Isn't it worth while to take up this
indictment for consideration? For the
sake of argument let us admit that
certain labor unions practice a restric
ton Of output, though the field for that
practice is limited to branches of work
where the individual worker and his
ability still count as factors. Where,
on the other hand, the process of
work is In the main determined by
machinery and the worker simply has
become the servant and appendage of
the machine, he is practically power
less to regulate or restrict the output.
But in so far as the workers of to-
day are still able to restrict the out
put they by no means are able to re-
strict or prevent the production of
commodities. Capital, controlling ma
chinery, raw material and labor pow
er, settles that point. 1t can and does
determine how much of any kind of
production it wants. 1t regulates the
output by the use of more or less ma
chinery and labor power.
What restriction. if any, is then
chargeabIe to labor? Surely not the
restriction complained Of
Wherever organized workers effec-
tually practice what Is called restric-
ton they are actuated by two lauda-
bic motives--to place a limit on the
intensity of labor in order to husband
their own strength, their ability to
work; also to obtain more equitable
distribution Of the work among the
ready workers.
In other words, workers do struggle
against overwork that would use them
up prematurely, as slave drivers of
certain type used up the slaves, or they
look out for their unemployed brothers
in an effort to secure employment for
them
What they restrict, therefore, is not
the output of commodities. but the
profit of the capitalist class derived
from overwork through the process of
speeding. They resist slave driving:
hence the rage.
The real restriction of output that is
detrimental to the welfare of society is
the restriction for which capitalism is
responsible, for to capitalism restric
ton is absolutely essential. 1t is part
of the system. 1t is a most important
element in the production of profit.
The life principle of capitalist produc-
ton is not the creation of an abun-
dance of useful commodities, but the
creation of profit for the capitalist
The welfare of society counts for moth
ing as long as fat dividends come out
of the process of production as regulat-
ed by capitalism.
Capitalism never for a moment is
troubled by conscientious scruples
when profits can be secured by re-
striction of output.-Moses Oppenheim-
er in Painter and Decorator.

RATION.

1t is one thing to tell working
men by law that they are COM
PEELED to arbitrate every dispute,
and it Is quite another thing to
have them agree by mutual
agreement with the employer
that they will arbitrate every
dispute. That is the essential
difference between compulsory
arbitration. as in Australia, and
voluntary arbitration. as prac-
ticed by this Union, says the
Shoemakers journal. Ours is
the educational type of arbitra-
ton, the intelligent way of
avoiding costly strife, yet at the
same time securing more in the
way of benefit than we ever
were able to accomplish through
strife.
We make no pretense that the
interest of the employer and en-
ployee is mutual. We want all
we can get for our labor and the
best possible conditions to work
under, but we do recognize the
fact that when the employer and
employees disagree and produc-
ton ceases through strike or
lockout both sides are losing
money, and to that extent their
interests are mutual.
