INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION
TO ENFORCE LABOR LAWS
NEW YORK LEGISLATURE MAKES
CHANGE TO DUST OFFICIALS.
John Mitchell and James M. Lynch To
Be Retained On Board By Governor
Whiteman; Displaces Bureau.

The New York State legislature has
passed a bill creating a state Industrial
commission of five members to enforce
all labor laws, including the workmen's
compensation act. 1t viii supercede the
state labor department, now presided
over by Commissioner James NJ. Lynch,
former president of the international
Typographical union. While economy
was argued as a reason for this change,
the real motive was to displace Demo
cratic officials in the bureau protected
by civil service. 1t is reported that
John Mitchell, who has made a splendid
record as member of the workmens com
pcnsation commission, will be made
chairman, and already the governor has
publicly announced that James NJ
Lynch, the present commissioner of la
Dor, will be retained. Each member is
to hold office for six years, the terms
expiring separately, and will receive Ss,-
OO0 annually.
The existing bureaus and staffs Of the
labor department are retained intact.
and with them is placed the worlkmen's
compensation bureau. Those who realize
that the most important function Of
compensation is not the mere payment
OF claims. but rather the prevention OF
hSClutHtS ny meaHS OF lHc cooperative
pressure" made possible by this form Of
social insurance, will understand the i'm.
portance of thus unifying the work Of
accident compensation and factory in
spection, as in the state of Wisconsin.
for example.
An unsalaried advisory industrial
council will likewise be appointed by the
governor to assist the commission in
matters Of policy, and TO cooperate with
the state civil service authorities in
selecting practical mechanics and other
qualified persons for inspectorships. Five
members must represent labor and five
the employers in this advisory capacity.
An important provision, placed in the
law by experts acting for the New York
Committee of the Association of Labor
Legislation, empowers the commission to
act on behalf of employees who have
been the victims of frauds, extortiop.
exploitations or other improper prac
tices, just as the interstate commerce
commission seeks redress for individual
shippers. In this way one successful
suit will benefit all persons similarly
situated.

PLEAIS MADE FOR
CREATION OF WORK
State Unemployment Com
mittee Urges Action
Opportunity Needed for Idle Men to
Gain Support for Families and Put
Punch Of Progress Into Colorado

The State of Colorado Committee on
Unemployment, recently appointed by
Governor Carlson, has issued the follow
ing appeal to the citizens of the state:
There comes time in the history
of every state when, to save itself from
disaster, it must call upon the patriot
ism OF its people. In such a time men
lay aside the little fears by which their
deeds are restrained, and acting in a
big way as a unit they accomplish re-
suits far beyond the ability of the dis
organized mass. In Europe today mil
lions OF men are performing wonders
of which they did not believe them
selves capable n few months ago be-
cause they have been welded by patriot
ism into great armies actuated by a sin
gle purpose. If the heroism, the per
s0nal sacrifice, the almost superhuman
energies they are wasting in war were
expended for the ends of peace and pros
perity. there would be no limit to the
good they might attain.
Colorado Faces An Emergency.
Colorado now faces need that in its
way is quite as great as that which
confronts any belligerent nation of the
Old World. There are hundreds of men
out OF employment. Women and chill
dren in many counties are in want for
the bare necessities of life. The road
work that has been undertaken in the
coal mining counties through the assist
aDce of the Rockefeller Foundation is
only palliative. permanent solution
must be found. A permanent solution
can be found, for within the state there
are resources sufficient to abolish all
poverty, to give every man a position,
to preserve every woman and every child
from starvation.
THE suffering and the distress that
exist in the state are felt by every in
habitant. There is no business, no indus
try that does not reflect in decreased
receipts the pinch of destitution in the
homes of the poor. If work is found for
idle men. if they are given the oppor-
tunity for productive labor for which

judgments until August ! when the law
becomes operative, it began an inquiry

near Canon City. The inquiry consti-

most important features OF the law ere

of strikes and other forms of industrial
controversy.
From information obtained by the
commission the trouble at the Canon

LAWYERS AND LABOR MISTAKES

In talk on the mistakes of Labor
Unions" before the Detroit Federation
of Labor, Judge Jeffries of that city
said:
"The bankers, lawyers, make mistakes.
There are l65 volumes in the supreme
them or 10000 decisions in all, and they
contain about 1000 mistakes which the
judges and lawyers have made.
'If a man in his zeal on the battle
field made mistakes you'd build monu-
ments to him as hero. But in the in
dustrial field if one of your men made
mistakes you'd make dub of him"
Denver labor bulletin., 1915-05-15

rather than direct controversy between
employer and employees. The fact that
the miners walked out because of a diff
ference over the question of pay for
dead" work, however, brings the case
within the jurisdiction OF the commits
sion, it is believed.
Under the provisions OF the act II will
be Illegal to call n strike in Colorado
until the commission first has had an op.
portunity to investigate. II is also un-
lawful TO effect n lockout. IL will be
interesting to note how this feature Of
the law is applied by the new commits
sion.
