IDEALS ARE VALUED

MILWAUKEE. i Ideals are the
greatest thing in the world and should
be encouraged, said DR.. Stephen Wise,
New York rabbi, in an address in this
city.
ideals are the most worthwhile
things in the world" he declared. ITO
have an ideal and to be ever in the
pursuit of it is to live a useful life.
The men that the world honor are
those who have held to cherished
ideals, even though in standing by
their convictions they were minor
ity, pitted against the world. Ideal
lists, with their impractical visions,
are always in the minority; they are
always unpopular, because it is their
work in the world to awaken the
consciousness of the majority. And
the majority does not like to be
aroused from it's slumbers, to hear
indictments of things as they are, fol
such indictments are a reflection up
on them. Over and over the idealis'
has rendered the world priceless serv
ices"

LABOR PLUS UNIONISM
MEANS DECIDED SUCCESS

In these days of questioning and
testing the worth of present institu-
lions and of search for better ways,
the trade unions feel the import OF
the prevailing desire to take stock"
Though there have been many criti-
cisms of the labor movement; though
it has been pronounced too narrow,
conservative, radical by those who
know, it has never been pronounced
ineffective. The labor movement is
not made of talk alone-it is founded
upon deeds.
It is a real force that secures for
the workers one more hour from the
days toll, one hour that can be spent
in the home, in recreation, study, in
the worlds uplift. 1t gives him bet
ter and safer working conditions.
1t is materialism that is surely
and continually making it possible
for the working classes to live better
each day, to be happier and to think
better larger thoughts and then to
plan greater things for tomorrow's
realization.
1t offers immediate help for pres
ent needs.
The trade union movement is by no
means perfect, but it represents the
best thought and intelligence of the
workers at the present time.
There have been many who have
opposed it, both inside and outside.
Many causes have sprung up, flour
ished for a short time and then van
ished
/ A union of workers that is success
/ full in promoting the interests Of the
toilers must be an organization made
up of interested, alert members, loyal
/ to the cause and to each other.
There is no union duty that is un-
important.
Attendance at meetings, though APP
parently inconsequential, cannot be
neglected without injury to the cause.
The contact with fellow workers,
the common debate on common prob
lens, the spirit of mutual helpfulness,
leave their impression.
There is nothing sensational, moth
ing exciting about the performance
Of regular duties, but it is the regu-
larity and sureness of that perform
ance that gives character, effective
ness, vitality and power to the or
ganization.
The organizations can only be what
the individual members make them.

WASHINGTON.-The Danbury hat
ters have performed a service of his
torfc importance in the struggle for
industrial freedom, declares the A.
r. of l.. executive council, in cir
cular issued to all unions calling on
organized workers to contribute the
wages of an hours labor, the second
hour of the work day or shift of Jan
y, 1916. for the benefit of despoiled
Danbury hatters.
The councils action is under the
authority Of the American Federation
of Labor convention, held in San
Francisco last month.
"The plight in which the hatters of
Danbury Conn, find themselves
arouses the concern and the sympathy
of all the workers as well as of all the
Iiberty-loying citizens of America y
saws the executive council, which re
counts the inmstices trade unionists
have suffered by reason of court In
terpretations of the Sherman anti
trust law that human beings are in
the same category with commodities,
and are subject to injunction pro
cesses that denied them rights guar
anteed free men and women.
The hatters resistance against
these fniquties, together with court
processes financed by the American
Federation of Labor, emphasized
these wrongs and resulted in the pas
sage by congress of the Clayton
amendment to the Sherman antitrust
law in which it is declared that "The
labor power of a human being IS not
a commodity or article of commerce"
In addition to this clear declaration
that there is a difference between la
Dor power and articles of commerce
to which trust laws properly apply
the Clayton amendment limits and
regulates the use of the injunction
writ, and forbids it's use for purposes
against which the workers had so
long and so justly complained
This establishment of fundamental
rights, this acknowledgment by con-
gress that workers own their labor
power-without interference or direc-
ton by lawmaker or Judges an
epoch in American industrial history
The men around whom this success
full battle revolved, however ARE now
destitute. Their bank deposits and
homes have been attached TO insure
payment of an approximate 100000
court award that was made before the
Clayton act was passed. Many OF the
despoiled hatters have reached an age
that they are no longer able to work.

TAKE ACTION

titute condition as a result of a fight
that ended so triumphantly for Amer
lean toiling men and women.
On this phase of the struggle, the
executive council Of the American
Federation of Labor says:
The Danbury hatters did not fall
ter in that which they did for the
benefit of all organized labor and
for all the workers of the country.
They did their duty they made the
test and upon them has fallen the con-
sequences of the Injustice Of the then
existing conditions. All other work
ers participate in the benefits which
have grown out OF their struggle, and
it is but just that they should also
help to relieve the victims, If the
Danbury hatters or the hatters' or
ganization were left to bear the full
weight of the burden, it will mean
to them great suffering and great
hardship. Every member of organ
lied labor is urged to do his duty
in this matter and to bear his share
in the common struggle to establish
industrial Justice"
Members of local unions should pay
their contributions to their local Sec
retaries, who should forward the sum
collected to Secretary Morrison of the
A. F. of L., Washington, who will
receipt for same and forward it to
Secretary Lawlor Of the United Hat
tiers of North America.
This money shall be used for the
exclusive purpose of relieving the hat
tiers who were made the victims of
the greed and rapacity of the so-called
"Anti-Boycott association" and Loewe,
the Danbury hat manufacturer. Sec
rotary Lawlor will publish a complete
list of all contributions received and
the payments made and to whom.
The date agreed to by the conven-
tion-January 27-was selected as
particularly appropriate, because it is
the birthday of the president of the
American Federation of Labor, who
has given lifetime of devotion to
the cause of labor and humanity.
The executive councils circular
closes as follows:
Meetings for the purposes indi-
Gated might be held with fitting eX-
ercises to help bind the organized toll
ers of America more closely together
with bonds of fraternity, sympathy
and mutual helpfulness and a greater
determination to struggle unitedly on
for the dawn of a better day among
the toilers of America.
Men and women of labor, give an
hour-an hour of your labor-in a
most righteous cause!"

THE COWARD QUITS

The member of a union who be-
comes disguised with the mistakes
Of his fellows, and on that account
throws, up the sponge and quits, has
not in him the material of which the
men wehe made who brought the la
Dor movement to its present position
of power and influence. They we're
not cutters, and because Of that we
should be more than thankful The

requires perseverance, physical and
moral. Il is no place for weaklings

CHANGE OF VENUE FOR
MINERS

TRINIDAD. - Judge Lavender of
Leadville has sustained attorneys for
the Mine Workers union that miners
indicted on charges growing out of
the recent strike should be tried else
where. The court declared that con-
ditions existing in this county made
la change of venue justifiable. The
court complimented the miners at
torneys for the splendid case they pre-
scented and said the state had failed
completely in sustaining its point.

1916 is BABY YEAR

1916 is Baby Year. The facts about
American babies, the needs of Amer
lean babies, and Americas RESPONSE
bility to her babies will this year be
known as never before, because the
first week in March will be Baby
Week throughout the country
More than 400 communities repre-
senting every state in the Union are
already laying their plans for Baby
Week according to the Children's
Bureau of the U. S. Department OF
Labor in order that during those
seven days the needs of the babies
may be so presented that all the par
ents in those communities will learn
a little better how to care for their
babies, and all the citizens will real
ize that they have a special obliga-
ton to safeguard the conditions sur
rounding babies And it is confident
ly believed by those who are interest
ed in this nationwide Baby Week
that the remainder of the year will
be marked by a strengthening of all
community activities for saving
babies lives and giving them a better
chance to grow to healthy maturity.
The Baby Week idea originated IN
Chicago not quite two years ago.
Then New York had Baby Week,
and Pittsburg, and other cities. Such
practical benefit has in each case re-
suited that the General Federation of
Women's Clubs has undertaken to
promote this nationwide observance.
State health officials and national or
CARNATIONS interested in public health
and child welfare have taken up the
plan and in various ways are giving
it not only their sanction but their
active cooperation. The extension
divisions OF the state universities
have promised special assistance in
interesting and helping Baby Week
in rural communities.
The Federal Children's Bureau be-
lieyes that Baby Week will give more
parents a chance to learn the accept
ed principles of infant care, and will
awaken every American to his re-
sponsibility for the deaths Of the
three hundred thousand babies who,
according to the census estimates,
die every year before they are twelve
months old Therefore the Children s
Bureau has prepared a special bull
letin of practical suggestions for
Baby Week campaigns, adapted to
the varying needs of communities of
different types. Copies of this bulle-
tin may be had free of charge from
the Children's Bureau at Washington.
