How Railroads
Could Save

Cleveland.--The four railroad broth
erhoods have been denied an eight
hour day in the freight train service
by railroad managers, who piously
announce that it would cost the public
too much. Employees deny this claim
and show that the railroads have
overlooked the public when they
squandered vast sums on salaries for
pet officials, on illegal freight rebates
to favored shippers and on private
cars for presidents and managers and
their wives and families,
The railroad employees quote from
records to show how moneys have
been lost to the public by these prac-
tees of managers, who now pretend
a high regard for the public when en-
ployes demand better conditions.
The latest expose by the employees
refers to the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad which issued in one year
1906 free passes, involving 4,577,9
miles of travel to legislators, Fat
torneys, newspaper men and other
persons not connected with the rail-
road company. These free passes had
money valuation of over $130,000.
The Nashville Chattanooga and
St Louis Railroad, during the same
period, issued 22,225 free passes,
valued at 5000 500 and involved 7,133,-
944 miles of travel.
These figures are taken from the
records of the interstate commerce
commission, which says:
There is scarcely a walk in life
which is not represented in this pro-
cession of recipients of passes, from
the federal bench to the local poll
tician and the sheriff who summons
the jury. The threads represented by
these passes tie thousands of citizens
to the carriers through improper re-
lations."
The railroad employees cite these
two cases as indicative of practices on
other railroads, whose managers are
now united in protecting the public
interest" The interstate commerce
commission, however, is not swayed
by this pretense, for it makes this
comment on the free pass evil
"The lack of morality reflected by
the facts here compiled is a menace
to the institutions of free people"
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1916-07-07
CHEAP DIGNITY

Theatrical managers are very much
alarmed lest actors lose their dignity
by joining a union. Employers are
generally jealous of the dignity of
their employees. Dignity is so much
cheaper than cash that all really "ef-
ficient' employers prefer to use it
rather than legal tender for the pay
ment Of wages. If the wages are low
enough the employers are willing to
call them salaries"
The actors are passing through the
same evolution as the teachers. When
the teachers of Chicago organized
their federation they chased Joshua
Wanhope out of one of their meetings
because he compared them to trade
unionists. They were then living
largely on dignity" After a few
years they traded dignity for indie
pendence and higher wages and Joined
the American Federation of Labor
Then they found that instead of losing
dignity they had gained self-respect
and power and all the things upon
which a genuine feeling of dignity and
pride in a profession might be based.
The great majority of the actors
have long been the easiest marks in
the industrial world. Flattered as
artists, they have been exploited like
greenhorns in sweatshops Told that
10 bargain collectively for wages
would be unprofessional, they have
been overworked, underpaid and
turned into the cheapest sort of
money-making machines.
Tt may be of interest to some Of
these actors who fear that association
with organized labor will interfere
with art to know that the theatrical
art has made its greatest progress
only when it has been most closely
associated with union labor. The
unionists and socialists of Germany
and Belgium maintain the largest
theatrical enterprises devoted to
really artistic stage productions that
are to be found on earth.
If the actors of America are thor
oughly unionized they may be able to
gain enough leisure and income to en-
able them to learn something OF what
really constitutes dignity and art in
the theatrical world. Milwaukee

BREADTRUST GIVEN BLOW

Danbury, Conn-Trust-made bread
has been given a hard blow in this
city because of the action of the
chamber of commerce in calling upon
citizens to patronize local bakeries
The resolution states that during the
past ~ months certain bakeries in
New York City have been able to dis
pose of about 5000 loaves of bread
per week in Darbury," This resolu-
ton was introduced by George w.
Andrews, a member of the Danbury
Typographical Union, who urged the
business men to make good their
buy-in-Danbury claims"
Organized bakers are benefiting by
this agitation.

SANITATION

By John Watson, Sanitary Engineer.
In a recent tour around the State of
Washington the writer was pleased
to note the many ways sanitation is
brought to our attention. You see
signs which read: This garment
was made under sanitary conditions"
others read "Our milk is put in sani-
tary cans" Sanitary drinking cups
for sale here" Sanitary notice-Do
not expectorate on the floor of this
car, by order of the board of health. /"
Some of our hotels boast of the sani-
tary conditions that prevail in their
rooms, dining rooms and kitchen, and
great many others.
We have sanitary plumbing which
receives very little attention and is
the most important of all Let us
compare the relative value of sanitary
plumbing and expectorating on the
floor of some public place. The spittle
discharged from the human being is
sometimes considered very dangerous,
as it may contain germs the nature
of which would be due to the persons
condition.
How tuberculosis Spreads
tuberculosis is spread through
careless people expectorating in pub
lie, and one hardly knows the condi-
ton of the person sitting next to him
in a train, theatre, restaurant or other
public places When it is a known
fact that any one has tuberculosis
there are certain instructions given
them and the most important one is
that they must expectorate in paper
napkins provided for the purpose, then
they are burned This, in my opinion,
is very safe way to dispose of this
very dangerous discharge. But on
the other hand suppose this person
was careless and violated the Flaw"
by eXpectorating in public place, the
dangerous time would be when this
sputum had evaporated and was car
ried by the atmosphere, germs and all,
to some other poor victim. Thus one
can see the need of claw enforce
ment," and the health department of
this state is doing all in its power to
eliminate this dreaded disease, but
are lacking III funds and assistance to
ferret out the many causes of our
many ailments
But now let US look at the plumbing
side of this question. All the body
wastes are discharged into the plumb
ing fixture, either bath tub, lavatory
or water closet, Sand we think we are
safe because we have seen it disap
pear but such is not the case, for a
large percentage of the poisons of our
bodies pass through our bowels and |
with it's germs, and they may come |
back to us through our sewer system
if imperfect, or through our drinking
water All bowel discharges should |
be disinfected in the following dis
eases, typhoid, cholera and diarrohea,
for at least ten days after GONZALES |
cence has commenced. How many of
the dear people recognize the i'm
portance of these facts and are doing
them? OF course, we wouldn't think
of doing a wrong act that pertains to
health, but we are doing many through
ignorance. Therefore it is your best
and cheapest health insurance to see
that your plumbing is absolutely safe,
and this can be done by calling in a

HOMELESS MEN

By Andy Raynor in the Seattle Union
Record
We have all heard of homeless cod
fish, boneless ham, boneless chicken,
etc. We have heard of spineless
shrimps and spineless men.
am of the opinion that spineless
does not sufficiently describe a GER
tain type Of men. Therefore, I have
captioned this article "Boneless Men"
It must not be thought, however,
that this very common type OF men
are rare nor that there is no osseous
material about their anatomy. Quite
the contrary. Their heads are usually
solid bone. These men have certain
characteristics. All union men are
familiar with them.
These homeless men are not to be
found in the unions Or if through
fear they do join a labor organization
they desert at the first hint of an en-
counter with the employers, often
using the excuse that they must keep
steadily at work or starve These
homeless men are always talking about
work. Never are they heard discuss
ing labor problems; they are never
heard talking of historical subjects.
Things chronological or economical
have no interest for them. In fact,
Inone of the fundamental facts of hui
man existence have any interest for
these homeless men. These men are
usually found after working hours
congregated in some public house or
sitting around their clubhouse talking
about-what? Why, just work, They
are forever worrying about their dirty
disagreeable Jobs that they erroneous
ly call their own worrying them
selves sick for fear that the boss will
fire them.
The poor, pitiable, aye, even despic
able, men are work crazy. They are
obessed with the one solitary idea:
( Get a job and work, work, work theil
head off; get a job and keep it. These
poor deluded men-brothers of ours
too. they are-take immense pride il
the fact that some of them can dc
twice as much work in given time
as some other man. and hope to keeT
steadily employed through this fact
They also take great pride in the fact
tlat they have never been fired, glory
ing in this in a truly foolish manner
for instead of stamping them in this
minds Of the real, manly working men
as real outstanding men, it stamps
them as subseryient to the wishes o.
/ the employers.
Boneless men never kick, never pro
.test about conditions, never agitate
never join a union; or if they do, it is
usually under pressure from men with
whole skeletons inside of their fleshy
envelopes. They meekly submit to
|any and all impositions, eat rotten
food served up by The employers, sleeT
lin filthy hunks built in insanitary
shacks. and carry an enormous roll OF
blankets around lha country.
Boneless men are not in the minor
Ity in this OF any other civilized coun-
try, but constitute great majority
