CHICAGO CAR MEN VOTE
IN FAVOR OF STRIKE

CHICAGO, June 1.-Two weeks
ago by vote Of S,S01 to 367, organ
lied employees of the Chicago street
car lines gave their officials power
to- call a strike in the event that the
company refuses to grant increased
wages. The present rates range from
21 to "a cents an hour. The union
wants this increased to i 25 and SO
cents respectively. The company has
rejected the proposal. .
The workers also ask that the five
year apprenticeship clause be mod
ified, as this, they declare, is a. trick
to keep the average wage low. If a
man operated a car for years in
another. city and secured a position
here, his experience would not be
considered, but he would be paid the
minimum wage received by men who
never operated a car If he worked
the same length of time for a Chicago
company, left it's employ and re-
turned, he would receive no credit
for former service and would be paid
the minimum received by beginners
The car men insist that this ap-
premiership plan is not for the pur-
pose of making men competent, but
simply to secure cheap labor

Germany's System.
THE railways in Germany are own
L ed by the individual states but
are regulated but not operated by the
Federal council or "Bundesrat," which
issues all regulations regarding con-
struction, equipment and operation.
The chief office is in Berlin. At the
head of the various state systems is
the Minister of Public Works. who
has charge of the whole transporta
ton system, both railways and water
ways.
Prussia is divided into twenty-one
divisions, each one of which is in
charge OF chairman with several as
sistants. In addition to the twenty
one groups of directors, there are nine
advisory councils, to which represen-
tatives of commerce and agriculture
are appointed in order to link The ad
m1nistration up as closely as possible
with the industrial needs of the state,
BY this arrangement there is a. Fed
era1 council which regulates the en-
pire and brings about co-ordinated ad-
fninistration; a responsible minister at
the head of the system local advisory
groups who manage certain territory
and representative advisory councils
who are closely acquainted with >the
needs and requirements of the empire.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 1.-THE
following statement was given out for
publication last Saturday by the Ohio
State Federation Of Labor:
"The Executive Board of the Ohio
State Federation Of Labor, in meet
ing assembled at Columbus, review
ing the Eighty-first General Assem-
bly,, has come to the conclusion it
would not be doing it's fHll duty to
the wage earners of Ohio il it did not
point out that the dominant political
party, which had large working ma
jorfty in both branches Of the assem-
bly,, not only failed to execute the
platform pledges. made to labor, but
its members offered for .considera-
ton and passage bills to amend the
child labor laws, impair the Work.

the law providing for the nonpartisan
election Of judges, which, had they
-hsen successful, w onld have desfreYed
the results of many years of effort on
the part Of organized labor and the
reform forces of the state.
1.-The legislature also passed the
Gallagher law, practically repeating
the Miners Gross Weight Law and
thereby undid legislation obtained in
the interest of the miners of Ohio and
which had established justice in the
payment of wages for work performed
by the miners in the mining of coal.
I'm addition to failure to enact
legislation beneficial to the workers.,
the dominant party lost sight of and
gave no consideration to the follow
ing plank inserted in it's platform in
response to the request of organized
labor:
We recognize wider claims Of the
people upon their government for leg
islation to promote social justice and
pledge cooperation in the broader
movement for human welfare
