SOUND BUSINESS MAXIMs

Most men who have amounted to
anything started with nothing but
ability and determinations combina-
ton which recognizes no man-made
limitations.
Any kind of work is better than
idleness, which is directly responsible
for most of the u~nhappiness in this
world.
Idleness is a dangerous thing; it
may grow into a habit that might
stick to you after you get back in har-
ness. and the man who loafs on his
job is only fooling himself.
Eternal, intelligent effort is the
price of commercial growth, and
where is bound to be retrogression.
Business is something like aeroplan-
ing: to stop is to drop and to drop is
generally to bust.
If l had an enemy, and wanted to
get even with him, | could wish him
nothing worse than to land in a soft
job and get the loafng habit. 1t
would only be a question of time be-
fore he or the job petered out, and the
longer he held on the worse off he'd
be in the end; for there is a law OF
compensation which somehow or other
makes US work in old age for the
time we waste in youth, or suffer if
we can't make good.
Pin your faith to this law of com
pensation, but don't take any stock
in the law of chance; there's no such
thing. Waiting for something to turn
up in the relief that things are bound
to come your way eventually is throw
ing dice with fate. Many a good dog
never got a decent bone until his
teeth were gone.

Board of Education has refused to re-

board should talk more than five min

this attempt to close debate by giving
their allotted time to one member, Max
Loeb, who led the fight for the right of

There can be little doubt that this
rule is directed against the Chicago

The anti-union order was adopted by
the Board of Education on September
of this year. Judge O'Connor re-
strained the board from enforcing the
order, and the matter is still pending in
the courts.

GUARD AMERICAN IDEALS.

The recent a. i. of l.. Convention at
San Francisco made this declaration in
support of its advocacy of a literacy
test Tor immigrants:
he American labor movement is not
devoted in any of its manifestations or
activities to any proposition having for
ITS purpose the closing of the gates of
opportunity to any man or woman, no
matter what race or color, but in justice
to the men and women of America, who
have developed by their industry and
through their thrift, who have created
from their intelligence and fostcrcd by
their genius institutions that properly
should conserve the highest and dearest
rights of manhood while securing a
standard OF living that is higher and
productive of better results than any
other known in the worlds history can
not complaccntly view, or quietly sub
mt to the operation of any influence or
the existence of any means, the Contin-
uancc of which would inevitably break
down and eventually destroy the condi-
tions of social life in America. We de
mand that those aliens, no matter from
whence they come be such as are prop
crly qualified to participate in the re-
SponSlbilites as well as the privileges Of
our civilization.
$50 far as the literacy test is con-
cerned, the American Federation OF La
Dor is irrevocably pledged to that pro-
posed means for preventing the bring
ing into this country of unfit immigrants.
1t is the least of all the qualifications
that might reasonably be required"

SOCIAL LAWS TO INCREASE.

Washington. - Health insurance for
employees will be the livest issue in social
legislation in this country during the
next five years." declared DIR. Henry J.
Harris, of the Library of Congress, in
an interview in local newspaper. He
said careful statistcians estimated that
there were 3,000,000 persons sick in the
United States in any one year, and that
each wage Garner was estimated to lose,
on an average, nine days year on ac-
count of sickness, and that if So a day
was taken as the average wage, the
wage loss from sickness annually totals
SjOO,000,000
"ln FIVE years." said DR.. Harris, no
less than twenty-seven States have en-
acted laws that provide pensions for
widows, and i'll five years thirty-one
States have enacted laws to compensate
workmen injured at work. When the
movement for health insurance is uni
versal, it is probable that it will meet
with no less phenomenal success.

INDICT EASTLAND OFFICIALS.

Chicago,-The federal grand jury has
returned three new indictments against
the eight defendants previously indicted
on charges OF responsibility for the
Eastland disaster In the list is includ-
ed two federal steamboat inspectors,
officers OF the company and the engineer
and captain of the Eastland.
The new indictments charge man
slaughter, as did the previous true
bills, with a new theory OF prosecu-
ton added. In addition to the mail
slaughter charge under section 2s2 OF
the criminal code the defendants are
charged with conspiracy to violate the
law.
They are also charged with violating
section of the act OF congress Of
1898, which prohibits owners, agents,
charterers, and navigating officers from
sending unseaworthy ships to sea The
government holds that the Eastland

REFUSES TO ACCEPT AWARD.

Toronto, Canada. - The Canadian
Northern Railroad, like the Toronto
liydro-Electric Commission, has refused
to accept an award of a board appointed
under the Dominion Industrial Disputes
Act, which is intended to stop strikes
and lockoutS in public utilities.
brotherhood engineers and lircmcn
asked for the appointment Of board
to adjust working conditions. The
award did no fulfill the demands of
these workers, but they accepted it. The
company has rejected the decision, and
now the two brothcrhoods are arrang-
ing Tor a strike vote.

wording of the law and supported the
shipping interests in their claim that a
strike, no matter how short, automat-
cally ends an award. Armed with this
decision, the employers are now driving
off the wharvcs every worker who dared
to violate the law and cease work-to
strike.
III strike puts an end to an award.
says the Naoriland Worker, published
in this city, 1T must follow that a lock
out by employers will have the same eff
icct. 1t must follow, from the decision
in question, that when strikes occur
hereafter, all the employers need do is
to make an arrangement with fifteen
loyal workers, get them to form a
union, enter into an industrial agreement
with them and proceed as if nothing had
happened. There is no need to ask for
penalties against the strikers, inaSmuch
as they can be ignored and boycottcd.
1T is a notorious fact that the loyal
union at Grcymouth, like those at Auck-
land, lIuntly and Wellington, was grant
ed registration, although the statutory
prelinlnarlcS were not complied with. 1t
appears, however, that it is impossible to
impcach the registration of union when
once the certificate had been issued al
though IT is otherwise in the case Of
the fraudulent registration of a COM
pany. Hence, once the department has
seen ht to issue a certificate, no matter
how the new union may have been
faxed, registration gives the fraudulent
bantling legal status.

Arbitration By Force
Victin1izes Workers
No Matter HoW NeW Union May Haze Been Faxed
Registration Gives The Fraudulent Bantling Legal
Standing.

Wellington, New Zealand-By read
ing into the compulsory arbitration act
meaning never intended the Court of
Arbitration has made it possible for the
shipping interests to yiCtimize members
Of the Greymouth Wharf Laborcrs'
Union.
This organization is registered accord
ing to law, and was working under a
court award that established wages and
working conditions, and which was ac-
cepted by both themselves and employ
ers. Later the union struck in sym
pathy with Wellington water side work
ers. This act was illegal, and after a
few weeks the union declared the strike
off, and so notified their employers In
the meantime the shipping companies
had gathered together handful of So
called loyal employees, formed them
into union hastily secured govern
ment registration, or recognition, and
then began a policy of victimization
against members Of the bOHd fdc Wharf
Laborers Union. The latter appealed to
the government to stop this blaCklisting,
but without success, and the unionsts
were finally compelled to start proceed
ings themselves in the Court of Arbitra-
ton. They took the position, that even
though breach Of the award had been
committed, this did not annul the award
In support of this they quoted Section
30 OF the Arbitration Act, which pro-
vides that an award shall be in force
until new one is agreed to or until the
registration of a union is cancelled.
The court, however, ignored this plain
