LONDON. Feb. 12.--The newspaper
charge that chaos exists. at the Lon
don docks, with the Implication that
high wages have caused the dock la
borers to drink instead OF work. is
denied by,J. G.. Broodband, chairman
Of the dock and warehouse committee
Of the port Of London authority.
Mr.. Broodbank admits that the con-
gestion, has at times. been severe since
the outbreak Of the war, but the i'm
provement! toward normal conditions
Is rapid and ifewiweeks ought'to see
the wharves fairly well cleared.
The real trouble, he says, is due to
the fact that the needs Of the army
and navy come before those Of the
merchants. Military and naval ship
ments are enormous Although the
war called awayllarg numbers OF Ne.
servists from the docks, there are
5000 men employed this month as
against 1000 at the same time last
year. In addition. the London port
authorities have had to send some
thing like 1900 trained stevedores to
French ports, particularly Havre, to
help handle the military shipping
there.
To mention some OF the additional
burdens that was has thrown upon
the port Of LondS the years sugar
supply purchased by the government
has to come through here: about 1850
army transports ply in and out; OF the
Thames merchant ships are diverted
to London which ordinarily are
berthed in other ports now closed for
naval reasons; and OF the various
supplies such as Apstralian wool.
lately held up by the exploits of the
Emden, are beginning to arrive.

''Twenty-One Reasons Why
aMan Should Join a Union

!. Because it tends to raise wages.
This is proven by all sorts of evidence.
2. Because it prevents a reduction in
wages; reductions rarely come to well
organized labor.
3. Because it aids in getting shorter
hours. Ask the union men who are
working eight hours; they can prove
it. They can show union card also.
4. Because in union there is strength.
This is as true Of wage carriers as of
states.
). Because it makes labor respected.
Power wins respect from employers as
from all men.
d. Because it gives men self-reliance.
Z. Because it develops fraternity.
Craftsmen are all too jealous of and
suspicious OF one another even at best.
s. Because it is a good Investment.
No other investment gives back so large
return Tor expenditure of time and
money.
o. Because it makes thinkers. Men
need to rub intellects together in mat
tiers of common concern.
10. Because it enlarges acquaintance.
The world is too restricted for wage
earners.
IL. Because it teaches cooperation.
When laborers cooperate they will own
the earth.
IL. Because it curbs selfislmess; the

WHEN LEGREE BECAME A ST. CLAIR
fChicago Public

Regardless of the merits Of Rookie
feller's proposition to his Colorado min
ers. the latter will find it prudent to
accept. Rockefeller has the upper hand
and the employe who incurs his dis
plea sure cannot be as secure as one who
pleases his master. If the miners were
free men, or If there were any hope of
successful revolt, the proposition could
be safely weighed before being acted
upon. But since they are not free and
a revolt has just been crushed, they are
not to be blamed should they accept
anything, good or bad, which their con-
queror may offer. 1t is wise slave
who encourages his master to act the
part of st. Clair instead of Legree. But
while Rockefeller's miners are trying to
make the best of their slavery let freer
workers outside redouble efforts to nbol-
ish conditions which enable men like
Rockefeller to exercise slave masters
power.

HELP A GOOD CAUSE.
First Aid Club of Hanna, Wyo., Would
Like Literature.

Undoubtedly there are many readers
of The Bulletin that have books, maga-
zines or other literature that they have
no further use for. Instead of leaving
it lay around and be destroyed it would
be an act of human interest to send it
where it would be appreciated.
President James Buckley On the First
Aid club of Hanna, Wyo., writes that
the club has good quarters, consisting
OF five rooms centrally located with free
ianitor service supplied by the U. p.
Coal company. The club is desirous of
starting library and reading room that
will serve as lounging place for the
miners when not working. The donation
of books and magazines are solicited for
this reading room. Nearly every family
has at least one book they have read
that they could spare for this club. Let
us open mp our hearts and help the boys
get started. They will gladly paw ex-
pressage on any donations of this char
acter. Send all matter to James Buck
ley. First Aid Club Hanna, Wyo.
The Bulletin has placed the club on
its mailing list and the real illuminator
will arrive every week. There are many
members of trades unions in Denver that
can help this good cause along, so get
busy and send to them something that
will help pass the time away pleasantly
and profitable for the boys who are out
of work

grab.all is toned down by the fear of
the opinion of his fellows.
l3. Because it makes the job better
place to work. The bully foreman can't
bully the union card.
ID. Because II helps the family; mole
money comforts, and better oppor-
tunity to improve your social condi-
tions.
l5. Because it helps the state. I'm
organized and discontentcd labor is the
parent of the mob. The trade unions
stand as rock between the govern
ment and anarchy.
10 Because it is universal The trade
union is coexistent with civilization
H. Because it pays you benefits
when you are on strike for better con-
ditions. or to prevent unfair conditions
being imposed upon you.
Is Because it pays you sick benefits
when sick or disabled.
TO- Because it pays death benefits Of
800 and upwards.
20 Because il stands for eonciliation
of alf differences between employer and
'employe.
81 Because a union mans card Is
treated with respect and consideration
by all union men. and the bearer OF n
card is never without friends. and can
always get assistance If in needy cir
cumstances.

(By L. C. Herrington.)

To the rank and file of the labor
movement the above caption is signifi-
cant. This is more applicable to some
sections than others; more especially is
it true of the large industrial centers of
the east and middle west.
To those who have given thought and
have kept abreast with the industrial
struggles in the east it is more appa-
rent than to those who langlish behind
and give no heed to the great indus
trial awakening that is today sweeping
the country-yes, even worldwide in its
scope.
The fact is, the great organized labor
movement has grown to such enormous
proportions, and has become enlightened
to such an extent that it is no longer
necessary TO depend upon a few of its
number to steer the ship of freedom
thru the stormy seas of discomfort into
the calm harbor of emancipation. The
rank and file, thru the study of economic
conditions and the needs and desires of
the workers have become self-confident
of these needs, and no longer will they
listen to the eloquent" appeals of the
professional dealer" to follow him dur
ing political campaign or in the choos-
ing of the leaders of the organized labor
movement, but are today selecting men
from their ranks whose records merit
the confidence not only of the workers,
but whose sincerity has gained favor
with the public at large.
The time was when the smooth
tongued dealer" could convince the
rank and file it would be possible to land
a member or "friend" of labor in n
political job. and the chances were that
after "dealing'' their "friend' into Of
flee the only thing they received was
r few crumbs in the way of appoint
ments in an attempt to appease their
desires for remedial legislation looking
to the Improvement of the condition of
the workers.
A new era is dawnng-the awakening
OF the toiling millions is manifesting it.
self in various directions-in the selec-
ton of tried and true leaders for the
proper conduct of their businessmen
who know the desires and needs of the
workers. and whose energies are ever
exerted toward attaining these ends.
Politically, realizing their strength when
united, they are selecting and electing
men of unquestionable fidelity TO their
cause; men of broad vision, who see
the greatest good accomplished when
done for the greatest number.
In this onward march to industrial
freedom it behooves the workers to be
ever on the alert in the selection of the
men who are to guide them; choose men
of high ideals, whose sympathies are at
all times for the creating of condi-
ton when all mankind shall receive
fair and just compensation for labors
faithfully performed.
In the state of Colorado it is espe-
cially important at this time that the
