GAINS IN NOVA SCOTIA

New Glasgow, Nova Scotia.-A
board of Cancellation, appointed by
the government under the industrial
disputes and investigation act, has re-
ported in favor of the unorganized
employees of the Acadia Coal Com
pany who suspended work several
weeks ago to enforce a higher wage
scale. On the advice of A. F. of l..
Organizer Dane they applied for a
board Of Cancellation under the
Lemieux act and the trade unionist
presented their case to the board,
which decided in favor of substantial
wage increases and improved working
conditions. About 1900 men and
boys are employed in the vicinity of
Stellarton, where the coal company's
mines are located, and Organizer Dane
is hopeful that many of these en-
ployes will join the Mine Workers
Union.

PORTO RICO WRETCHEDNEss

San Juan, Porto Rico.-Justica, Of
ficial trade union newspaper, prints
the following report from the Porto
Rico bureau Of labor:
THE strike among the cannery
workers in Mayaguez last week was
on account of the miserably low wage
being paid. The men were receiving
cents an hour, the women 215 cents
per hour
about 400 people were involved in
the strike. After several conferences
with the chief Of the bureau of labor
the employers offered to increase the
wages / cents per hour for both men
and women. At first this proposition
was refused by the strikers, but many
women who were not on strike Of
fered to work for the old wage, and
consequently the Porto Rico Canning
Company started up again with prac-
tically a new force.
IAN inspection made during the
week of the number of small to-
bacco stripping shops in Manati dis
closed that in nearly all the factories
very little attention was being paid
10 the laws gov erning the employment
of women and minors. The sanitary
conditions were particularly bad"

WHO OWNS THE RAILROADS?

Washington.-In a phamphlet issued
by the bureau of railway economics,
maintained by the railroads, it is
stated that on June 80 the total num-
Der of railroad stockholders was &c.,
1872, covering 1885 railroad companies,
with an operated mileage of 257,211
miles.
The average holding per stockhold-
er, par value, was $13,796 for the
United States as a whole.
The labor journal. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1909-1976, 1916-07-21

The bureau indicates that the ~
Der OF stockholders is less than 6
l22, for the reason that "t6e So
individual may, and often does, h
stock in more than one railway al.
he Is a stakeholder in three railwCal
he Is SO reported by each of the th,nC
railways and is counted three tin
IN making up the aggregate. In d
sequence the number OF individl
railway stockholders is smaller nj
the totals here shown"

NESS-WHAT DOES /
MEAN?

We are in receipt of a letter from a
lawyer of this city dealing with a
recent article printed in our issue Of
July It'll
The letter is somewhat interesting,
as it shows the superficial thought Of
the average individual who fails to
understand the undercurrent events
which make for war, and who pay but
scant attention to those students of
economy who are constantly trying to
educate the public and the workers
TO the real cause Of war
The writer is absolutely in earnest
and we respect the opinions Of men
who are in earnest, for to those we
especially appeal with our propaganda
of peace. 1t is the thinkers OF the
nation which make for civilization and
will in time abolish wars, poverty,
crime and all barbarous relics.
If preparedness meant to the work
ers of the nation more of the good
things of life, something to really
live for, we would be enthusiastic
boosters Preparedness means to the
slaughter pens for the working class,
and after they have bled and died
for the masters of industry on the
fields Of battle. then the blacklist,
the open shop, poverty, misery, degra-
dation and crime is the only thing
left them when they want a little
more Of the things they produce from
the Colonel Harteys, Blethens and
Otis's who grind the toilers down to
the last notch.
No, Empharically No! We are not
in favor Of Preparedness We, the
workers. have no quarrel with the
workers Of other countries. They bur
want The same things We do. and are
barred from getting them in the same
way taar we are. When the capitalists
want cheap labor they bring the
foreign .aJorer to this country by the
hon ands. so we have nothing TO fear
from invasion. We are already in
FaHa'. The enemy is within our
shores. IT is the exploiting capital
isis That we have TO fight.

Of the Steel lsteal Trust and they

can never secure sufficient appro-
priations to reach a state of mill
tarism. There is as much difference
between proper preparedness and
militarsm as there is between peace
and war.
China constructed a great wall to
protect herself from her enemies
This did not avail for the reason that
they did not sufficiently protect them
selves along the line of that wall.
Now, what we desire to do is simply
to protect ourselves against ag-
gressors and be in a position to
maintain our selfrespect and properly
protect our citizens at home and
abroad I am sure that you believe
in this and that you would resent an
invasion of this country by a foreign
foe as quickly as any other citizen.
Millions for defense, but not one
cent for tribute, is a popular slogan
in this country, and to live up to it
We must be prepared. That is all
that the people who marched in the
parade are demanding and I fail to
see how any true patriotic citizen Of
this country can demand less.

Some thrifty housewives scrub a goose
with soap and water, a process per-
fectly good in itself but careless cooks
sometimes leave a taste of soap on the
skin, a flavor which is not appre-
