EDUCATION VALUE
OF ORGANIZED LABOR

The Citizen believes that the pur
pose of organized labor is not con
fined merely to securing larger wages
and shorter hours, important as this
is.
The ultimate purpose is the solidi
flying of the human family and it's es
while.
This can only be accomplished
through education.
Those who teach the law of force
that is the kind of force that ar
rays man against man and class
against class-is in no sense in ac
cord with the spirit of organized la
Dor.
The labor union, the concrete ex-
preston of organized labor, is in the
best sense a school
1t teaches men that they are broth
ers and helps unite them in brother
hood.
1t teaches them self-respect and as,
piration. SRI
1t teaches them that the best peace
policy is in organized society, not in
unorganized mobbery.
1t teaches them that they have OBJ.
legations to the community.
1t teaches them to uphold. not only
a high standard of living, but high
standard of labor as we'll.
1t teaches them to work team-like
on the job. This is feature not
sufficiently appreciated by employ
ers Men who associate and are con.
genial can do much better work to-
gether on job.
1t teaches efficiency The man
who is admitted into a labor union
must prove himself competent in his
trade, and the standard of competency
is one designed to protect the com
petent worker.
one mas only to glance over the
various splendid International trade
magazines and note the character of
their contents to become convinced
that efficiency is matter held of
high import by organized labor.
Indeed it is this very fact of its
appreciation of education that gives
The Citizen its supreme confidence
in the perpetuty and predominence
of organized labor.-Los Angeles Citi-

COPPER STRIKE NOT SETTLED

WASHINGTON.-Secretary French
of the Arizona state federation of la.
bOr, writes A. F. of l.. Secretary Nor.
rison that the strike of Arizona cop
per employees is not settled, despite
contrary press reports. Secretary
French states that these workers are
standing firm in their effort to Sc
cure living conditions, and urges that
wide publicity of this cause be CIV
en-, together with the need for finan-
cial aid
This strike is unusual because of
the position taken by Gov Hunt and
county officials, who have announced
their opposition to strikebreakers and
gunner. AS a result the strike has
been marked by an entire absence
of violence and the corporations have
initiated recall proceedings against

The work of circulating petitions
upon two of the proposed initiative
bills will be somewhat delayed owing
to legal obstacles placed in their way
by large interests who have invoked
the aid of the courts. Petitions upon
the four bills decided upon by the
Joint Legislative Committee were
printed and ready for circulation when
last Friday the employing interests
referred to applied to Judge Wright
of Thurston county for a restraining
order against the printing, circula-
ton, or certification by state Off
cials. Hearing upon the application
for temporary order was had in
Olympia last Monday morning, C. S.
Gleason appearing as attorney for the
employers and G. j. France of Seattle
representing the Joint Legislative
Committee. Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Allen resisted the order on be-
half of the state. After hearing argu-
ment most of the day the judge took
the case under advisement and Tues
day, March 18th, was set as the date
for final hearing.
The two bills attacked are the ones
familiarly known as the "First Aid"
bill and the Fish Code" Objection
was raised that both bills contained
sections which were in effect argu-
ments for the bills. 1t fas contended
that the machinery of the initiative

WASHINGTON. - Are professors

university trustees? These and 9th

American institutions of higher learn
ing are discussed by Dr. S. P Capen,

states that upon the settlement of
this question depends the whole vel

consciously, in large universities
which are supposedly free"
1t is stated that instances are not
unknown where the governing boards
of state institutions have behaved as
if the institutions under their control
belonged to them, and neither the
educational officers nor the public

their acts"

This expense, now being borne by the

celebration at the Labor Temple last
night when the Stage and Theatrica

sixth anniversary of the founding OF

until eleven O'clock so it was the
witching hour of midnight when the
clans gathered. About sixty of the
members and their invited guests,
which included members of the theat-
rical profession, sat down to the ban
quet table which was literally loaded
down with the "eats" The committee
had provided generously, so generous
ly in fact that the Snohomish County
Orphanage was the recipient next
morning of a choice assortment of
fruits and other goodies.

He always wears scab made hat,
He dotes on scab cigars,
And thinks that every long-tailed RAJ
