The machinists of this district

The machinists through this dis
trict have been joining the union
by leaps and bounds and are very
much interested in the erganlza-
ton. The machinists in Cincinnati
have been granted an increase OF
10 per cent by the manufacturers
volun arily, but the truth of the
matter is, the union is becoming
TOO active and they are Of the
opinion that an increase will ease
matters some. Machinists in the
Miami Valley have always been the
lowest paid mechanics in the codn-
try and they are now organizing to
get what rightfully belongs to
them. There will be heap of bu-
siness tranacted at the district

Labor Defeats the Enemies of
Workmen's Compensation Law
BY Thos. Donnely, Secretary Treasurer Ohio State
Federation Of Labor.

Responding to the demands Of
Organized Labor, the 1910 General
Assembly of Ohio, authorized the
appointment by Governor Harmon
of a commission to investigate the
subject of Workmen's Compensa-
ton, and to report to the succeed
Ing General Assembly. A major
ity report of the Commission was
submitted. The minority report
was made by Bro. VIM. J. Winans,
CT the Railroad Trainmen, and a
bill was drawn representing the
views of the Ohio State Fedora
tion of Labor. The events that
transpirei at that time are now a
matter of history, but it should be
recalled to the wage earners of
Ohio that the voluntary workmen's S
compensation law embodying, to a
large extent, the fundamental prin
ciples of the law drawn by Judge
Okey, for labor, was the result of
the efforts of Organized Labor, in
opposition to the organized employ
ers of the State, the business inter
ests are represented by the Cham
bers of commerce, good following
OF the attorneys of the State, and
the liability insurance companies
of the United States.
Early developments at that time,
demonstrated that the employers
were favorable to the appointment
of the original commission, having
bat one purpose in mind, and that
vas the repeal of the Norris and
Metzger Employers Liability-Laws
aud the passage of cheap compeu-
sation act, by which all burdens
would be placed upon the employees
and the public, and all immunities
granted to the employers. A GER
tain class of attorneys opposed La
Dor because of lucrative practice
enjoyed in the handling of liability
cases. At last, but by no means
least, came the liability insurance
companies, with an army of repre-
sentatives and attorneys engaged
In soliciting liability insurance from
the employers and contesting the
suits of injured workmen and the

shop went out Thursday morning.
A representative of the Molders'
Union stated that the men demand
ed So. so per day straight time for
floor men, core makers and bench
men, and an adjustment of all piece
work. The molders claim their de-
mands are just because Cincinnati
is paying this amount at the pres
ent time and that the inoiders ii
that city are now asking for $3. rs
per day and nine hours. Interna-
tional President Valentine was In
the city Friday in consultation
with the men who are out. The
strikers are meeting In Trades
Council Hall.

Single Handed Labor Met These For
ces of Dollar Interests and Profit
In the Wage Farmers and
Defeated Them.
Following this first victory, Ia
Dor entered the Constitutional
Campaign, elected delegates to the
Constitutional Convention, had an
amendment submitted to the pea
Pile giving the State the right to
make the Workmen' Compansa-
tion law compulsory and recogniz-
Ing the principle that the collecting,
and administration and disbursing
of funds for this purpose is State
function, and can only be exercised
in Ohio by the State. This amend
ment carried by an overwhelmir &
vote at the polls.
With the converting of the 1913
Legislature, Labor again took up
the question of Workmen's Com
pensation, and bill was introduced
by Senator Green, the father of
the voluntary act, calling for COM
puls0ry contribution by the en-
ployers to the State fund. This
was the signal which brought the
same forces into play against Labor
as before. But once more, single
handed, defeated those opposed TO
the passage of an adequate south
century law.
Since the passage of the Com
pulsory Act, eliminating the Am
bulance chasing attorney" and the
liability insurance companies, the
representatives of those companies
have been working surreptitiously
to discredit the State fund and the
administration and distribution of
it. These efforts have been re-
peadly checkmated by the Fedora
ton, and the State Industrial Com
mission, in charge of the fund, has
on several occasions issued state
ments III answer to these insinua-
tions and attacks, to the utter con-
fusion of the liability insurance in
terests.

last Legislature, insurance bills and

ernor Willis today appealed to the
people of Ohio for contributions Of
food, clothing or money to be given
fer relief of destitute miners In the
southern and eastern parts of the
State. He asked that these dona-
tions be sent directly to Adjutant
General B. w. Hongh at Colum-

communities where they are most
needed.

a resolution were introduced.
Again, organized labor, single
handed, dragged THE nigger out
of the Woodpile' of adroit phrase
ology and subtle legal verbiage, to
the Glare of the sun of publicity,
every effort +, sneak through law
permitting the discrediting of the
state by unfair methods of investi-
cation or granting the right to in
surance companies 10 write COM
pensation was defeated.
The next step was to appeal to
Governor Willis and protest against
the rules of the Industrial Commis-
sion In not recognizing the In
surance companies, and requesting
his intercession. The Governor re-
ferred them to the Industrial Com
mission. The commission has re-
fused to change its rules. The in
surance interests promised to file
brief bafore the Industrial Commis-
sion last Saturday, but didn't do
SO.
The daily press informs US that
it is expected that the insurance
companies will now transfer the
scene of their activities to the De-
partment of Insurance Commits
siener Frank Taggart and endeavor
to secure license to write compen
sation insurance. The press also
says that upon his refusal it is
thought they will appeal to the
Ohio Supreme Court.
The officers of the Ohio State
Federation of Labor has written the
Governor commencing his action,
appeared before the Industrial
Commission protesting against any
change in their rules which will
recognize the right of the liability
insurance companies to write com
pensation in Ohio; called upon At
torney General Ed. c. Turner end
requested TO be permitted to have

Tending the State in any suit

ance interests. To this he willingly
agreed And finally protest has
been filed with Insurance Commits
sicner Taggart against the issuing
Of any license to write workmen' S
compensation.
Every member of organized la
Dor should write our State officials
what they think about this matter.
In the meantime. organized labor
will await the next move of these
companies who, previous to the
passage of the workmen' compen-
sation legislation, collected millions
annually in Ohio from employers
for liability insurance and paid such
a small amount on the claims that
profit of something like 65 per
cent was recorded for them in
Ohio. Following the passage of
the present law none can quite for
get their upsavory referendum
petitions thereon, and their studied
effort to sneak legislation or discre-
dit the principle underlying the
