PEACE or NATION MENACED.
Low Wages and Oppression by I'm
pIoycrs Cause Bitterness and So
Ciai Unrest.

Chicago, Aug, 2S.-Chairman
Walsh of the Industrial Relations
Commission has made public a sup
Elemental report to congress in which
he states that Industrial dissatisfac-
ton is due to low wages. Other out
standing features Of the report are
that the unrest has assumed such
proportions already that it menaces
the social peace OF the nation. Bitter
ness and hatred, due to insufficient
food and clothing for their wives and
families and the power Of tse employ
er to dictate their social, political and
moral environment are widespread.
Legislatures, governors and other Of
ficials are rightfully charged with OPP
preston on the side of capital and
workers for failing to realize their
strength and the mass of citizens who
fail to recognize existing evils.

statement. with the sophistry of
federal authority he slyly seeks to
transfer to our people the prejudices

convey to the nation the idea that
the majority of our citizens who in
the last election registered their pro-
test against violence in labor dis
putes had no knowledge Of the facts
or were corruptly informed"
After declaring the people of the
State at the 1913 election deliberately
decided against strike violence the
governor continued:
by nature a montebank and sensa-
