THE UNEMPLOYED AND VO-
CATIONAL TRAINING.
Editor the Carpenter:

Editor the Carpenter:
In the February Carpenter l find an
article written by Mr.. j. D. McKinlay,
of Chicago, ILL.,, in which he takes issue
with the idea of the vocational school.
His reasoning is that we should not
have these schools, as they would only
add to the great army of unemployed,
Is it fact that our industrial condi-
tions are such that we dare not give
our boys the very best training that
can be had?
Must we grow up in ignorance just
because there is not place for our
best trained boys? Shall efficiency
count for anything?
1t is deplorable beyond expression
if our system is such that there is not
a place for those who may acquire
training. -
The system of educating the appren-
tice which he writes about in Chicago,
believe, is a good idea; but such a
system can not be had in every city
not in the near future, at least.
Neither do l take issue with him in
regard to the vocational schools being
a means of adding to the army Of un-
employed, but the diSconcerting
thought that l am trying to bring out
is that of the seriousness of our in
dustrial conditions. The fact that we
have more than three and half mil
lion of working people out of employ
ment is enough to make red-blooded
mans soul rise up within him. And
then again, when it comes to the
qualify our boys just because of the
prevalent conditions, it is high time
that we should avail of some funda-
mental remedy to rectify this state of
things.
The fact that we have such a host of
unemployed is the very reason why we
should educate our boys for different
vocations. Then it will follow that to
eliminate this trouble we must find
employment for the unemployed first.
And to find employment for the idle
(who want work. will be stupendous
undertaking. but whether it is a big
job or a little one, there is one thing
sure, and that is that if the conditions
are changed so that this army Of men
have work, the change will be wrought
by the working people.
We should cooperate, then, for this
purpose. 1t rests with ourselves to do
it or to allow these bad industrial con-
ditions to continue.

LABOR STANDS BEHIND THE
EIGHT-HOUR BILL.

The State Federation Executive
Board has reaffirmed emphatically
the action of the Raymond convention
in endorsing the eight-hour initiative
measure and urges every union man
and woman to take off their coats and
get to work in behalf of this measure.
A bitter, determined, aggressive fight
is being waged against this bill and
every vote in its behalf will be needed
at the polls. Every effort has been
made to estrange the farmer vote
against our joint legislative program
by representing to him that the eight
hour bill is aimed directly at him and
will ruin him if it passes. The farmers
organizations have taken no action
either for or against the bill nor will
they do so. 1t was neither asked nor
expected of them by organized labor,
Many farmers will vote for the bill,
many will vote against it. Their atti'
tude as individuals on this bill will
not affect in the least the legislative
coalition of forces. They are in com
plete accord with the program which
is to work together upon the things
concerning which they agree, each be
ing free to follow their own inclina
tions upon subjects upon which nc
common agreement has been reached
