LARGER PART OF DOLLAR
SHOULD WORK AT HOME
JESSE vETTER STATES POSITION TO
THE MANUFACTURERS ASSN.
Dollars Spent to Maintain Good Wages
and Fair Working Conditions Are
the Ones that Build Up State.

Jesse Vetter of local NIachinists Union
No. AZ, is candidate for commissioner
of social welfare, being the candidate for
this office put forward by the Socialist
party Along with other candidates he
was asked by the Denver Manufacturers
association to state his position on the
patronage OF home industries. Following
is Vetter's reply:
Denver, Colo, May 2, 1915.
Mr.. Albert G. Fish, Secretary Manufae-
turers' Association, 32S Foster Bldg,
Denver, Colo.
Dear Sir:-Your communication of the
Path received and contents carefully
noted, and l will be pleased to give you
my views on patronizing home industry.
! wish to state if the object OF your
organization i to make permanent and
increasing payrolls. quality as well as
quantity. for Denver and its citizens,
then I am in favor of it and always have
been.
Being a wage Garner, when have a
dollar to spend for any commodity.
first endeavor to find out if the firm
which handles, or manufacturer who pro-
duces that commodity, will give his wage
earners the largest share of that dollar.
That is my position on patronizing home
most of the working men and women of
Denver
What matters it i'll spend a dollar
with Denver merchant or manufactur-
er. if he uses the larger part of that dol
lar to take trips to Europe or purchases
an Eastern made automobile. l want
my dollars to remain in Colorado in the
way of good wages and good working
conditions for the people who do the
work.
Another example: Being a machinist.
wear overalls; | wear Underhills' over
alls and urge other maehinists to do the
same WhyS Because Mr.. Bayly pays
good wages and gives good working con-
ditions to the makers of the overalls,
and also allows them to organize and
treats with them
| do not buy Griffith shoes because
he treats his employees just the opposite
to what Mr.. Bayly does.
II were going TO the Pacific coast I
would patronize the Rio Grande r. r.
because il gives the workers the best
working conditions and tries to give
them permanent positions, and is the
largest industry in Denver.
believe by the above ! have made nv
position clear | wish to make Denver 4
better place TO live for the wage earners,
who comprise 15 per cent OF the citizens.
I believe any good done should be done
for the majority and not for the minor
ity. Sincerely yours,
JESSE VETTER.

The Martial Prophets

In ancient times and distant climes,
Mahomet started preaching.
The Arab crowd WAS getting loud,
And sadly needed teaching.
He then declared that Allah shared
With him, the task intended
To clean humanity and then
All trouble would be ended.
With sounding blows the masters rose,
From being shepherds humblei
To be a dread, their martini tread,
Made kings and nations tumble.
Iu later days BY devious ways
A prophet has concluded,
That all who could not sing his praise,
We're previously deluded.
So with the sword he and the lord.

Nor tarried he by land or sea,

The blessings we should plainly see,
That flow from such conversion;
The guns of krupp will timber up
Those stopped in deep Pcrversion-
When his career j. finished here,
No more salvation ever,

DENVER WORKING
GIRLS NEED MORE
Secretary Van DeuSen Gives
Interesting Statistics
Wages Of Unorfanized Female Wsrk-
ers Barely Sufficient for Existence:
Nothing for the Luxuries Of Life

Mrs. Catherine IL. Van Deusen, secre
board. has reached the conclusion that a
weekly wage of ss.35 is necessary for a
working girl to properly exist" in Den
yer. This affords no luxuries, and as
sures only the bare essentials of life.
The wage board Will cease to exist on
August Is, Governor Carlson having We
toed bill passed by the recent legis-
lature to make the commission perman-
ent, with power to establish minimum
wage.
\ Mrs. Van Deusen bases her figures on
Investigations made among 100 girls in
this city who live alone and whose wages
per week range from SIP to So. Ten
girls in each class We're taken.
The girl who receives S6 a week and
lives alone has only enough each week
for necessities. She has nothing to spend
for amusements or reading, is denied
vacation and can spend no more than
six cents weekly for insurance She can
set aside for carfare only enough TO ride
one way. The table shows the normal
girl who makes So a week spends on the
average seventeen cents a week for doc
tors care, while the girl who makes s.
week spends two cents less.
Mrs Van Deusen attributes this TO the
fact that the girl who has only SO a
week to live on is not so well nourished
as the girl who receives 81 and, there
fore is more often ILL.,
Says She Barely Exists.
4 find the girl who makes So a week
and has no home. said Mrs. Van Deusen
barely exists Fortunately, only a
small percentage Of SO n week girls live
alone. The others belong to families
that have other wage eamers. These
contribute only part Of their wages each
week to the family's living expenses
Some Of the 100 girls who furnished
the Figures for the table are employed in
stores, others in factories. and part in
laundries. The girl who works in a
store. it is found, spends more money on
her clothes than the girl who works in
the factory or laundry. On the other
hand the factory and laundry girls spend
more for food than the girls employed
in the stores
Another interesting fact shown by tho
table j. that girls who earn sll and
$3.50 week save on the average more
than the girls who make sll-J0 weekly
The average girl who makes $50 a week
can save about Is cents from her wage
but she has no vacation, spends no more
than } cents week for amusements. and
IL cents for insurance
