ARMADA DRY TIRE PLANT TO
BE IN FULL OPERATION SOON
NEW MACHINERY BEING ERECTED
AT FACTORY THIS WEEK.
Enterprise Will Give Employment to at
Least 100 Men at Start and Ex-
n poets to Develop Rapidly.

The S250000 plant OF the Dry Climate
Tire Manufacturing company, represent
ing a new Colorado enterprise, will be in
active operation about September /, un-
der present aims of its promoters. Three
carloads of machinery, aggregating 100
tons in weight and valued at more than
$4,000 arrived in Arvada last week. 1t
is in the process OF installation.
One of these pieces, a giant roller,
alone weighs forty tons. All of the
machinery is of the ponderous type and
when completed the plant will equal, it
is said any of the great rubber tire fac
tories in the United States.
The factory building, completed sew
eral weeks ago at cost of more than
$4,000 is model in sanitation, light,
air and convenience and is considered an
important addition to Colorado's list of
manufacturing enterprises.
Most of the machinery with which the
plant will be operated is manufactured
in Connecticut and is being shipped
across the country in special steel cars.
Several more carloads are due and will
be placed in the building as quickly as
they arrive The machinery installation
is under the direction OF a score of
skilled workmen, many of whom have
been brought from the East
The plant will manufacture auto tries
of special make and ranging from
pneumatic to solid types. 1t will fur
nish employment to probably 100 work
men in addition to road men and a large
office force.
The project is backed by number of
Colorado capitalists and is headed by
Charles w. Clark as president; /. F..
Crawford, secretarytre Fred b.
Clark, sales manager, and William j.
kreuder, factory superintendent, who
comes from Akron, Ohio.
Denver labor bulletin., 1915-08-21
Observed From the Mine Tipple
By J. D. RAMSAY

The present agitation about the in
crease of the militia is to say the least
of it coming from unfortunate sources.
The great body of union labor has no
quarrel with any organized force for the
real preservation OF law and government,
but it does object to in any way coun-
tenancing a body of armed thugs com
manded by biased incompetents parading
up the street and calling themselves the
national guard of Colorado.
If Governor Carlson really wishes to
get the militia recruited up to its full
strength, he can do it in ten days, but
it won't be done by any speeches about
patriotism. Working men quite under
stand that and what it means, and if
they don't seem to take much notice in
the bunk patriotism, they always have
and always will loyalty answer any call
to arms for the defense Of the country.
It's got to be done by plain flat assu-
rance that the national guard will never
again be used as it was used in this state
during the strike, and that it will be
commanded by decent reputable citizens,
not the mixture of fool and rogue which
has been commanding it,
It's very amusing to hear about the
meeting of the Chamber OF Commerce
when they had good lunch and then
grew patriotic and in grand eloquent
orations swore to die on the altar of
freedom. Their idea of dying is going
home to their stores and telling their
employees that they should Join and get
ready to fight for their employers in
terests. The less this Chamber of Com
merce says about the militia, the bet
ter it will be for that body The mem
bers, or at least many of them. are well
known and their connection with any
movement in which workingmen are to
be asked to take any part won't do it
any good.
Moving the Right Direction.
The industrial commissioners have
taken up the question of providing store
assistants some accommodation in the
way of seats where they can at times
get some much needed rest. This is a
very good move. We know of one big
store in Denver where the employees are
treated pretty badly in this respect, and
when if any of them ever call any at
tcntion to it, they promptly get fired.
Quite a number of the annual labor
conventions have been taking place lately
and strange as it may seem to few
of the operators boosters, there can be
noticed an increased membership. La
Dor is slowly but surely marshaling its
forces, not for the purpose of striking,
but for demanding a fairer deal than
she has ever yet received. Conditions
which twenty years ago were considered
quite normal, are not allowed by law
when enforcedD; today all employers
who are unning an honest business and
who are fair minded men are meeting
new conditions in an equitable spirit,

and business is rapidly adjusting itself
to new and better conditions.
OF course now and again one comes
across a few specimens of ancient big
otry and ignorance who demand the
right to run their own business to suit
themselves and for their own benefit,
but they are very few. BY the way we
have sometimes wondered il we owned
the land next to the private residence OF
one OF these people and we indulged in
keeping pigs and running soap fac
tory, even it we ran our business in our
own way to suit ourselves, what they
would say or do; their language would
be better forgotten than repeated.
All-Pwerful Combination.
The strike in war munition factories
all over the world seems to have been
r1naIIy arranged, and a Few OF the pes1,lc
who have been inclined to call these
strikes unpatriotic had better inquire
into the reason for them. The combina-
tion that supplies war munition and sup
plies, including armor plate, is one of
the most powerful combinations in ex-
istence, and with the introduction of
modern weapons OF war and the undis-
turbed state OF all nations, they have be-
come all powerful, and can today prac-
tically dictate the policy of all the So
called civilized nations
These people, not content with plan
ming wars and pushing nations into
them, have even been treating their EN-
ployes in very high-handed manner,
and no sooner do these employees at
tempt to say anything than they get out
and begin to peddle all the old bunk
about making special efforts in the hour
of your country's need" Working men
always have worked especially hard in
the hour of their country's need, but
they don't see why they should keep up
the same lick and pay increased board

Struggle of the American Trade
Unionists forNew Magma Charta
Secretary of Labor Wilson in Address Before T. IT, Con-
uenion Recites the Progress Made by Workingmen Who
Now Haue Representative in Presidents Cabinet

Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson
made a very eloquent and interesting ad-
dress before the International TYPO.
graphical Union convention in Los An
geles last week. His remarks appear in
the official proceedings of the third day,
and We're as follows:
1T is not much more than a hundred
years since the economists existed who
contended that this land of ours would
not be able to support all of the people
who were born into it, and that some
means should be devised by which the
increase in population might be kept
down. Today we hear nothing what
ever of the Maltheusen theory. The in
ventive genius OF man has solved the
problem OF production. Today we are not
engaged in the solution OF the problem of
production, we are engaged in the solu-
ton of the equitable distribution OF that
which is produced. The problem OF pro-
duction was not solved as result of
the billiant conception of any one mind;
it was solved by building one thought
upon another, accepting one idea after
another until the time when every man
and woman who tolls with Drawn or
brain shall receive full value for their
labor.
struggle OF lra0e UnlOnlStS.
The great trade union movement has
been doing a great deal toward the -olu-
tion OF that problem. The younger mem
bers of the trade unions are apt to imag-
inc that the conditions now existing
have always existed; such is not the
case.
Every improvement that has been
brought about has been brought about
by virtue of the continuous struggle ol
the trade unionists. Years ago the hours
Of labor were from daylight until dark
with the introduction Of the artificial
light methods the hours were usually
twelve, thirteen and fourteen hours
every day. The employers in the various
industries did not voluntarily reduce the
hours Of labor
whenever the hours of labor were
reduced from twelve to eleven, from
eleven to ten. from ten to nine. from nine
to eight, they reduced because OF the
militancy of some labor organization.
Militancy of the Movement.
The employers of labor have never
voluntarily increased the wages so a. to
increase the standard of living to meet
the conditions of those who toll. Those
increases, those improvements have been
brought about thru the militancy oi
trade unions No legislative body ever
voluntarily passed an act providing
standards of safety and sanitation for
the workers. When they have passed
legislation of that character it was be
cause of tie pressure OF the organized
body at home.
These changes have taken place,,iter
long period of struggle and sacrifice,
and unionist who accepts the
shorter hours, the higher wages, the bet
ter sanitary conditions. the improved
safety appliances without contributing
