Paris, Oct 19.-Pierre Brizon, the

the Chamber to arrive at a calculation
of what the war costs, he said:

years of effective labor for each man,
we reach the sum OF 100000 francs for

MINERS WON'T AMALGAMATE

Indianapolis.-By a unanimous vote
the convention of the United Mine
Workers OF America decided not to
amalgamate with the Western Federation
OF Miners.
This is in line with recommendation
by committee appointed by the United
Mine Workers Union to consider the
question of amalgamation with the metal
miners. The committee pointed out that
the work OF the two unions-from a
practical standpoint-is entirely differ
ent, and that an amalgamation would
weaken both in their respective attempts
to organize the coal miners and the metal
miners. In referring to the differences
between the two industries, the report
says:
1--WE point to the fact that while the
metal miner, like the coal miner, is call
ed upon to brave the dangers OF a COM
mon calling underground, that the prod
uct OF the metal miner in nowise enters
into competition with that of the coal
miner; in fact his relationship to the
coal mining industry is not so near, nor
so important in time OF industrial strife.
as that of the men employed in the
transportation industry nor is his rela-
tior to us from a competitive standpoint
so important as is that of the men en-
ployed in the production and marketing
OF oil and gas, and in the plants and
waterpower sites used to generate cleo
trical power. We cite the foregoing in
order to make plain that coal mining
and metal mining are industries separate
and distinct so far as the competitive
relationship OF their product is con-
cerned."
The convention supports this recon-
mendation OF its committee. which also
declares: "A continuation OF our pres
ent close relationship seems to be all
that is desired, and we so recommend.

IMMIGRATION FIGURES.

Observation-Disclosures issued by the
bureau Of immigration, department of
labor, show that 23,173 immigrants ar
rived at American ports during the
month of December, 1915. The war has
crowded Italy out of the first rank as
supplier of emigrants to America.
For December, Mexico led with 1923,
followed by Portugal with 1O47; Rus
sia, 063 England, s62; Italy, 627; Jap
an, 622.
The Balkan states of Bulgaria, Serv-
ia, Montenegro and Roumania furnished
only eighteen emigrants. Before the
war immigration from these countries
totaled thousands every month.
Among the total admitted during De-
cember were 1924 laborer; 1921 farm
laborers and 773 farmers. The state of
New York received 4,319 of these ar
rivals; Massachusetts, 1894; Michigan,
1,S47; California, 1876, and Texas. 1867.

TRADE UNIONISM IN SCHOOLS.

Yakima, Wash. - Trade unionism
should be taught in the public schools,
declared President Marsh in his annual
report to the Washington State Fedora
ton of Labor.
IF collective bargaining be the best
method for securing for labor the re-
wards to which labor is entitled" said
the unionist, surely the child who must
eventually enter some vocation or other
that is productive in character, ought to
learn the essentials of collective bargain
ing. That involves a knowledge of the
history of trade unionism, its relation
to industry in all ages, and among all
races. Just as | would wish nv child
to know the history of steel, its relation
to civilization as it developed in irnpor-
tance as building meterial, so [ should
want him to know something of the
human element with which this basic
material is interviewer. Trade unonism
mas been too important factor to be
longer ignored in the schools but should
be frankly studied and discussed, with
a view of learning both its strength and
its weakness. There is no need to be
AFRAID of facts. Ignorance of a subject
which plays so large part in the his
tory OF every country where industrial
pursuits have been at all developed. is
tar worse than knowledge of any de
tects in industrial organization. Only
through knowledge can defects be rem
edied or sound principles applied A
study of trade unionism ought to be a
part of the curriculum of every high
school and universitv."

freedom. Because of circumstances
these citizens found themselves unwll-
ing allies of trust barons, who will now
lose this powerful support as the pur-
poses of restrictionists is better under
stood.
In urging the house to adopt the bill,
Chairman Burnett of the committee,
called attention to the great labor and
farmers organizations of the country"
the legislatures of Ohio, Virginia, Ten
nessee, Vermont and of many other
states, together with other organizations
that favor immigration restriction.
He stated that many of the ablest
men of the country believe that after
the European war millions of the poor
est and most illiterate will come to this
country. The best will stay at home to
rehabilitate their stricken countries, and
the worst will flock to our land and beat
down the price of labor and erect the
lowest standard of living which decent
men can conceive. Mr.. Burnett made
this comment on conditions that are now
known to exist in East Youngstown, O. :
IS it right that American laborers
and their families should be forced to
live amid such revolving environments
and such debasing conditions? Yet that
is the result of pouring in the millions
of illiterates from Europe to beat down
the price of the toll of the man who
earns his bread by the sweat of his face.
The illiteracy test is restrictive as well
as selective and in normal times will
keep out more than 100000 of just such
as brought about those conditions at
Youngstown"
"The committee has labored earnestly
in its efforts to keep out the most I'M
desirable of those coming to our shores
and at the same time encourage the i'm
migration of those who come to make
their homes with lis, to promote the
moral and material prosperity of our
country and to become permanent citi-
zens of our great government

FORCED IMMIGRATION
CAUSED OHIO MILL RIOT

The above statements are made feat
Secretary-Treasurer Donnelly of the
State Federation of Labor to the execu-
tive board of that organization after a
personal investigation of conditions in
East Youngstown.
These unionists say, in part:
I'VE found that the private police en-
ployed by the Youngstown Sheet and
Tube Company were the aggressors in
the fighting preceding the rioting, and
therefore responsible for inAaming the
minds of the people We found there
was no provision for the education of
foreigners, who largely comprise the
population. On the contrary. the COM
pany, through its president. Mr.. James
Campbell, objected to night schools for
these people. Out of a population of be-
tween 5000 and 10000, there are only 42l
voters in East Youngstown and LOO
children in the schools. But of these
are in the high school, 20 in the eighth
grade, 10 in the seventh, 80 in the sixth
SO in the fifth, 153 in the fourth and s2j

After years of exploitation, both in
and out of the mills, these men struck
as their only means of protest against
inhuman methods forced upon them
through their ignorance and complete
economic control by the companies. Com
PEELED to work twelve hours day and
seven days week, progress or advance
ment, either socially, educationally or
morally is impossible, even if facilities

"The blame rightfully belongs upon the
great steamship companies and trusts

picture milk-andhoncy conditions to
these people who are enticed from their
native lands for the purpose of cx-
ploitation and lowering the wage and
living standards of American workmen." "

COPPER STRIKE ENDS;
WORKERS MAKE GAINS

Phoenix, Ariz-The strike of 5000
copper miners in the Clifton Morenci-
Metcalf district has been declared off.
Substantial wage increases have been
secured and the companies will meet a
grievance committee of employees every
month to adjust differences. The set
tlement was secured through efforts of
commissioners Davies and Meyers, of
the federal department of labor.
The strike started September II, last
year, when 5000 employees in the copper
district suspended work to force the re-
instatement of men discharged between
that date and September 1 for Joining
the Western Federation of Miners. The
companies refused to arbitrate this and
other demands, which included higher
wages and better working conditions.
The attitude of these companies is
shown in the following signed statement
by copper operators, shortly after the
strike started
when it shall appear that conditions
in this section warrant it and the COM
panies are satisfied that the general SEN
timent of the community and their for
mer employees is unanimous in favor
of a resumption of operations on the
DdSlS VI wages anu COnulllOnS lflat nave
prevailed heretofore in this district the
companies reserve to themselves the
right to decide whether or not they will
again start up their plants
This arrogant attitude was again
shown when Gov. Hunt barred strike
breakers from the copper district. The
operators then started recall move
ment to oust him from office.
The A. F. of l.. convention at Sar
Francisco indorsed the strike and the
appeal for funds to aid these workers
whose solidarity has been rewarded by
better working conditions, higher wages
and knowledge that through unity
they can secure a voice in the disposal
of their labor power
